1564 Proposal
Having said this, Zhou Huailing looked at Gu Chaoyan gently, smiling confidently.
Gu Zhenkang had been held in prison at Dali Temple for four days, but he did not show up to offer any help.
He did it on purpose.
Gu Chaoyan had been doing all of these on her own, and she had been through a lot. She accused her father and got him beheaded. Women were always scared and tired, she should be the same even though she was the Phoenix Girl.
If he appeared at this point and consoled her, she would be moved.
And if she was utterly scared, she would accept him easily too.
As long as she said yes to him, everything would go smoothly.
Therefore, Zhou Huailing looked really confident.
Because he was very certain about this.
Looking at Gu Chaoyan, he was about to open his arms to hold her.
Gu Chaoyan threw a very cold look at him, and looked at him as if he were an idiot.
“Crown Prince, you can’t have forgotten that I am engaged to Lord Huai. And don’t ever mention this kind of question in front of me. Otherwise, I won’t just let you slip away from the consequences,” Gu Chaoyan said coldly, turned around and went into Xinlin Mansion.
Zhou Huailing stiffened.
He had not expected that Gu Chaoyan would turn him down!
Lord Huai? What was so good with Zhou Huaijin?
He had nothing and he was grounded in the mansion. He could not even console her, but she was still marrying him?
What was wrong with her head? She wanted to marry him?
Okay then. He was going to see if she could do it.
If Lord Huai was gone, he was going to see what she could do about it.
Zhou Huailing was about to rush to Lord Huai’s Mansion.
He had just taken a few more steps when someone from the court hurried up to him.
“The Crown Prince, the King is summoning you to the court. Something is happening there. I will pass on the message to the Phoenix Girl,” De Fu said in a hurry.
Something in the court? What was happening in the court?
Zhou Huailing was confused.
Why did he have no idea what happened? Was something kept from him again?
Zhou Huailing sneered.
Gu Chaoyan walked out of the mansion too.
She went past Zhou Huailing and got into the wagon.
Zhou Huailing was very angry seeing how she reacted, but he couldn’t say anything. He moved his lips, and got into his own wagon.
He was the best-looking son of the King and he was the most respected Crown Prince. Every woman would get excited upon seeing him, but for some reason, Gu Chaoyan liked to do the opposite of what he expected.
Was she trying to make an impression?
Zhou Huailing just could not understand her.
The wagon headed into the court and De Fu brought them to Ronghua Palace when they reached the court.
Even Gu Chaoyan had no idea what was going on. The King would always choose Qianqing Palace to meet them. Why were they meeting at Ronghua Palace this time?
“What happened?” Zhou Huailing asked.
Gu Chaoyan was even more confused. So even Zhou Huailing had no idea what was going on?
“Crown Prince, the King will tell you when you meet him,” De Fu said, without crossing the line.
“You old servant!” Zhou Huailing lectured him furiously.
