Chapter 618: Not Him
Gu Chaoyan got startled inwardly.
She looked at Zhao Yiqiu, but he was serious… and did not seem to be lying. What was wrong?
Gu Chaoyan felt her own pulse, trying to feel her own pulse.
True… Mr. Zhao was right. She was a person without a pulse.
She had never noticed this point.
Why? She herself had no idea what happened. Could it be because her soul was from a strange world, so things were getting this weird? The original host Gu Chaoyan was already deceased, so the body was still a deceased one?
Gu Chaoyan was turning increasingly pale.
She was feeling anxious inwardly too – if that was the case, did that mean that she might leave this place at any time?
She would have been glad to receive this news at an early stage, but she already had something she longed for at this time – Zhou Huaijin, Sword One, and Qing… she liked it here and she did not want to leave any more. She did not even know what would happen to Zhou Huaijin if she left.
Gu Chaoyan was totally shrouded in fright.
Seeing the way she looked, Mr. Zhao was absolutely sure that before his reminder, she had no idea that she had no pulse.
However… Why? Did she have a pulse before? If that had always been the case, then doctors she saw would always have found that out.
When Mr. Zhao thought about this, he asked, “Lady Chaoyan, since when did your pulse disappear?”
Gu Chaoyan’s anxious heart calmed down as she heard Mr. Zhao’s voice.
She shook her head. She could not possibly tell Mr. Zhao about her real identity.
Mr. Zhao would have dealt with her as if she were a monster, if Mr. Zhao could not understand. She was not powerful enough to conquer this world.
“I am not sure, maybe I have never had a pulse before. Mr. Zhao, what you don’t understand is that I had a terrible childhood. My mother passed away when I was little, and Qing and I ended up being in the Qiong Pavilion and it was only Qing who helped me get some hot water to drink when I got sick. No doctors were hired to treat me, so no one has told me about this,” Gu Chaoyan said seriously. She had no intention of lying to Mr. Zhao, because she truly had no idea what she should say.
Was that true?
Zhao Yiqiu was wondering inwardly. If that was the case… then her situation might be innate.
Zhao Yiqiu had read numerous books and been to many places. He had heard some strange news and rumors…
He was not convinced. He was worried that Lady Chaoyan would do something terrible, but there were good people in the news.
And as far as he knew, he believed that Lady Chaoyan was a nice person. And he would stop her directly if she changed her personality.
As he thought through these points, Zhao Yiqiu asked, “Lady Chaoyan, can you promise to me that you will never do anything harmful to the civilians?”
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
“If you do, I will not free you, Lady Chaoyan,” Zhao Yiqiu said seriously.
Gu Chaoyan nodded. “I promise.”
“And I will keep it a secret.” Zhao Yiqiu added.
Gu Chaoyan let out a sigh of relief. “Thank you, Mr. Zhao.”
Zhao Yiqiu was about to say something when the sound of knocking arose from the door. “Chaoyan, how are you doing?”
Gu Chaoyan cringed.
“Mr. Zhao, could you please tell him to leave. I don’t want to see him now..” Gu Chaoyan begged.
