1526 Shadow Door 3
Gu Chaoyan looked very clear, but seemed to be very cold, as if she were staring at nothing. “So what?”
Having said that, Gu Chaoyan did not even want to spend one more second on him. She turned around and walked away.
Hearing that, Zhou Huailing got confused, wondering what she meant. He turned to Junyi and realized what was going on.
Zhou Huailing just did not believe it.
So she meant that she did not care what position his Eighth Brother was and still wanted to marry him?
That was insane!
“Lady Chaoyan, don’t you understand? My Eighth Brother can’t help you at all. And I can give you everything.” Zhou Huailing looked at Gu Chaoyan as if he were staring at a stupid woman.
Having said this, he suddenly realized something.
Could it be because Ruxue was still there?
In that case… she must have thought it over.
Honestly… It was his fault as well. He had not thought it through carefully. Ruxue still had the title as the Crown Prince Consort, and he did not divorce her because he wanted to act as if he were not that ruthless, but that made Lady Chaoyan hesitate…
She was just worried that she could not be the real wife, whilst she could be Eighth Brother’s real wife…
That was a piece of cake.
When they were done with this business, he was going to tell his father about divorcing Ruxue.
When the Crown Prince Consort position was empty, he would talk to Lady Chaoyan about this again.
The Shadow Door was the most important thing at the moment.
Shadow Door had spread the news into the court and they had thought about removing it, but people from the Shadow Door were always very fickle and they from the court had to accept it.
He was very aware of the excellent killers from the Shadow Door, but he had not expected that they could confront the North Qi.
Actually… they were even more excellent than the troops from the Saint Divine Land.
They could not be removed, because that was not going to be realistic, and that it could be very bad for the court as well.
So what they needed to do was to get the Shadow Door to become servants for the court, and for Zhou Huailing.
When the Shadow Door became his, he was going to marry the Phoenix Girl.
Then everything would be settled and he would have nothing else to worry about.
He felt very motivated. He felt as if he were going to reach his goal at this very moment.
Zhou Huailing suddenly became very happy. Confronted with Gu Chaoyan’s cold face, he even felt like smiling. He did not insist on his suggestion but said, “Qianqing Palace is in front of us. Lady Chaoyan, we are there again.”
Gu Chaoyan threw a look at Zhou Huailing. She had already expressed what she wanted.
She thought that Zhou Huailing would make a fuss, but he suddenly got really excited.
She shook her head and did not understand what was going on, but she did not want to spend any more time on Zhou Huailing.
She turned around and said nothing, walking into Qianqing Palace.
Zhou Huailing was in a good mood too. He followed her and headed towards Qianqing Palace as well. He did not say anything more, instead walking in silence.
When they came to the Qianqing Palace, the King saw Zhou Huailing and Gu Chaoyan in front of him, so he looked very surprised.
