Ms. Doctor Divine

1788 Change 4

Zhou Huaijin sat in Fengxian Palace, his expressionless face betraying his constant thoughts about the poison coursing through Chaoyan’s body.

The City Lord of Snow Territory had claimed knowledge of the poison, leaving Zhou Huaijin almost certain of his understanding. However, he remained unsure whether this knowledge would benefit Chaoyan or not.

Snow Territory and Pavilion had their own ulterior motives for approving their actions. Their intentions were solely self-serving.

Zhou Huaijin didn’t want Chaoyan to suffer from any poison, nor did he anticipate her harm at the hands of these people. He was determined to shield her from any harm, without a single flaw.

Suddenly, Ouyang Mingjing hurriedly walked into the room.

He spotted an empty seat and promptly took it, without greeting anyone, not even the King of the Saint Divine Land. His demeanor was always a mix of mildness and arrogance.

In Ouyang Mingjing’s eyes, he considered himself superior to everyone else.

Zhou Huaijin admired this aspect of Ouyang Mingjing, but he remained cautious towards him, as he knew Ouyang Mingjing had approached them with a hidden agenda, devoid of any personal attachment.

“Speak your mind now,” Zhou Huaijin said coldly. He might not be a seasoned manipulator, but his presence commanded respect—an attribute even Ouyang Mingjing had to acknowledge.

Ouyang Mingjing observed Zhou Huaijin carefully, aware of Phoenix Girl’s exceptional discernment.

In the Saint Divine Land, he was undoubtedly the most outstanding man.

It was a pity, though.

Phoenix Girl had her own predetermined destiny, and he couldn’t be her husband forever.

“Where is she? Release her so that I may speak with her. I have something to discuss with her, not with you. I won’t utter a word until she is present,” Ouyang Mingjing stated bluntly.

Zhou Huaijin appraised him, contemplating a response. Fu Bao grew visibly displeased and was ready to counter him…

However, Zhou Huaijin halted him, instructing him to convey the message instead.

Zhou Huaijin was certain that if Ouyang Mingjing had made this demand, he would follow through with it. There were numerous hidden guards present, yet he remained unchallenged.

Zhou Huaijin could choose to listen to what he had to say.

A gentle expression crossed Ouyang Mingjing’s face. He didn’t appear arrogant due to Zhou Huaijin’s compromise, nor did he push for more.

Yet, this only deepened Zhou Huaijin’s concern.

Ouyang Mingjing possessed a composed state of mind. He didn’t even need to resort to threats, indicating his indifference toward the King.

Dealing with Ouyang Mingjing proved to be an exceptionally challenging task.

Zhou Huaijin’s expression darkened.

Gu Chaoyan entered, her figure draped in flowing garments. She didn’t exchange pleasantries but instead took the seat beside Zhou Huaijin. He poured her a cup of tea, offering it to her to ward off the chill.

Ouyang Mingjing’s gaze lingered on Gu Chaoyan.

She appeared frail, her frame hidden beneath the layers of clothing, and a hint of pallor graced her complexion.

Gradually, warmth enveloped the hall. Ouyang Mingjing observed Zhou Huaijin’s preparations upon his request to meet her.

This couple…
