His mood was changed only because he was worried about Gu Chaoyan. He got up quickly and came to Gu Chaoyan’s side. He took her hand and placed his hand upon her pulse. Sure enough, she had no pulse. Same went for the other hand.
Zhou Huaijin was shocked.
What happened? Why was the Heavens treating Chaoyan so unfairly?
Zhou Huaijin swept her into his arms. “Are you feeling unwell? If yes, you have to tell me, we can always come up with a way!”
Gu Chaoyan shook her head. She did not feel any huge difference between her and normal people, apart from being slightly scared of the cold.
Instead of pushing him away, Gu Chaoyan took a deep breath. “If you don’t like this fact, we can break off our engagement. We don’t need to get married, actually…”
Gu Chaoyan was about to continue with something when Zhou Huaijin hushed her with his index finger. He shook his head. “No, Chaoyan, no more words like this. I am not going to break off the engagement. No matter what happens, we should face it together. Did you ask me before why I treated you so fairly right from the beginning? I have to tell you that it is because you once saved my life when you were little, in the court! Without your help, I would not be here. So I won’t give you up just because of this minor matter. You are mine!” Zhou Huaijin said anxiously.
She saved him before? Gu Chaoyan thought for a while and believed that it was something the original host must have done.
Therefore, did he like her, or the original host?
Gu Chaoyan felt a bit confused.
“If I had never saved you before… would you still feel the same?” Gu Chaoyan asked sensitively.
“Yes.” He answered without any hesitation, because Zhou Huaijin knew clearly that he liked Chaoyan when she grew up, not when she was little. In the past, he would have treated her as a younger sister, not someone he loved. The reason why he did not mention anything before about this was because he did not want her to misunderstand him for this confusion. He said it now only because he wanted to console her.
Gu Chaoyan took hold of his hands tightly. She felt very assured right now.
When seeing her expression, Zhou Huaijin realized that she no longer felt trapped. He could not help but laugh. “So you have been dodging me because of this?”
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
Zhou Huaijin pinched her face as a way of ‘venting anger’.
“No more things like this. No matter what you run into, you have to tell me so I can solve the problems for you. Your father can’t stay behind you, but I am marrying you and I will give you double the love that you deserve.” Zhou Huaijin confessed clearly.
Gu Chaoyan nodded. She was not a person good at articulating, and when she felt moved, she truly had no idea what she should say.
They had a very long conversation.

At the hotel.
The Imperial Master got very anxious seeing Prince Muyi staying in the hotel all the time. He kept asking him to meet Lady Chaoyan for some shopping on the street or just a brief conversation or something.
Prince Muyi ignored him totally. Prince Muyi stopped listening to him any more, when he heard what the Imperial Master said about Chaoyan.
The Imperial Master felt helpless. So he decided to visit Gu Chaoyan directly. He would settle the matter first so the whole plan could work out properly.
When he thought about this, the Imperial Master went out directly.. “Go to Lady Chaoyan’s mansion.”
