She never liked the salty-chicken. She assumed that it was the original host who liked salty-chicken when she was little, so Gu Yunxuan bore that in mind and assumed that she always liked the food.
Above all, Gu Chaoyan felt that her heart was fully warmed. Even if she did not like it, she was going to eat it for Gu Yunxuan’s sake.
However, Gu Chaoyan threw a look at Sword One – she was not going to do the mission alone.
“Sword One, let’s eat it together, now, when it is still hot!” Gu Chaoyan looked at Sword One with a sneaky smile. She had to pay for laughing at her misfortune.
Sword One showed a bitter face. She should not have laughed at her – it was the Elder Miss she was talking with.
They had been eating for a quarter hour before the salty-chicken was finished.
After that, they were extremely stuffed. So they took a walk about in the yard, and then started to paint the sketch map of her own clinic.

In the following two days, Gu Chaoyan stayed in her Qiong Pavilion.
And soon, it was time for Gu Ruxue to get married.
Early in the morning, Chen Fu came to ask Gu Chaoyan to join the family in the front yard.
It was always the servants of the mansion that were busy rather than the Young Masters and ladies, but on the wedding day, the Young Masters and ladies had to be present. Gu Chaoyan would not have been invited in the past, and Mrs. Gu and Gu Ruxue might even have stopped her from showing up, but things were different now.
Gu Chaoyan just got engaged, and it was important that she was present since she was marrying Lord Huai.
Gu Chaoyan came to the front yard with Sword One, and Gu Zhenkang showed a flattering smile as he pointed at the best place. “Chaoyan, go and take that seat, next to your Brother.”
Gu Chaoyan followed the direction, and saw that there was a vacant place next to Gu Yunhe. Behind him was Gu Yunxuan as well as some children of the concubines, including Gu Caiqin.
She started to walk towards that direction.
Gu Yunhe threw a disdainful look at Gu Chaoyan and then said to Gu Xiuying. “Xiuying, come and take a seat here.”
Gu Xiuying was surprised, but got quite happy too. Normally, she and Gu Caiqin should have taken the corner seat, but Brother was asking her to take the best one, next to him!
There would be quite a lot of noble people attending the wedding today.
If someone could spot her next to Brother, and knew that she was not an ordinary child in the Gu Mansion, then she would definitely get engaged with some excellent family this year.
“Sure, Brother.” Gu Xiuying did not even ask Gu Chaoyan for permission before taking the seat next to Gu Yunhe.
The seat was taken, so Gu Yunhe looked at Gu Chaoyan with a proud look.
Their father did give her the seat, but she was not going to get a proper position in the mansion when she disobeyed him.
Gu Yunxuan said, “Chaoyan, come to sit next to me.”
Gu Yunhe mumbled as he laughed ironically. “She has no other seats other than with those children of the concubines.”
The words had just been spoken, when a cold voice arose. “Chaoyan.”
Gu Chaoyan spotted Zhou Huaijin.
