Chapter 1004
Sword One had just finished speaking when Qu Hua denied resolutely.
She understood that she was just a village girl, but she was not a narrow-visioned one. Li County was not in the capital, small yet situated next to the capital. It took them only two hours to arrive at the capital, and the wagon could make the trip shorter.
Therefore, Qu Hua had come to visit the Capital a few times, and she had witnessed the bigger world. She could tell whether or not a lady was married or not.
Qu Hua showed a proud smile on her face as if she saw through Sword One’s lies. “You think I am a village girl so I am gullible? No engaged girl would be allowed to go about like her. Any engaged girl would stay in the mansion rather than show herself outside in this clinic. Does her fiance not mind about this?” Qu Hua sneered.
She threw a disdainful look at Gu Chaoyan.
Everyone was calling her Elder Miss here, but Qu Hua feared nothing. She had met several real Elder Misses in the capital, and they were all stationed at home, rather than working at a clinic. Qu Hua did not think little of herself. She was a good girl in the village and she was a good match with Brother Shanhu.
Qu Hua had just given Gu Chaoyan a disdainful look when Zhou Huaijin walked out of the backyard, looking extremely cold.
He had just come back from Li County and learned from Sword Two about Chaoyan being at the Xinlin Clinic. So he came to check if everything was okay, but before he even walked into the backyard, he heard someone calling Chaoyan names as if that person feared nothing.
He looked extremely furious.
...
He approached Qu Hua with big strides.
Qu Hua had no idea what this tall and handsome man was doing here, but he already apprached her and before she was able to think for one more second, Zhou Huaijin gave her a lethal look and said fiercely. “Since you know nothing, then let me tell you clearly – she is my fiance, and I don’t mind her travelling.”
Qu Hua gasped. She had not yet been able to understand the message before Zhou Huaijin continued. “Who do you think you are, daring to ask about what happens in the imperial family?”
Qu Hua was totally dumbfounded. She turned pale and sweat emerged out of her forehead.
She had never expected that the Princess Consort of a Lord would operate a clinic in the capital during her free time? She would not have said a thing if she had been told the truth. She understood that Brother Shanhu was an excellent man, but she was smart enough to know that a Princess Consort would never lay her eyes upon Brother Shanhu.
Qu Hua threw a complaining look at Gu Chaoyan. She should have been told earlier, so that she would not be in such a situation.
Then she looked at her fellow villagers, who were on the way to take a break under Xiu Jie’s arrangement before they were all trapped here because of Qu Hua.
They moved away from Qu Hua.
That was the trouble she caused, and it had nothing to do with them!
“Fu Bao, throw this disgusting woman out of here!” Zhou Huaijin snapped, feeling disgusted.
Qu Hua was even more startled.
“Hang on.” Gu Chaoyan stopped.
Qu Hua let out a sigh of relief. She suddenly felt proud and was confident that nothing would happen to her today.
