Chapter 1046: Slap on Face 4
As far as Shanhu remembered, his grandma was radiant and in a good mood before he went to make the medicine. She even looked healthier than usual. He was just thinking that some medicine would help her recover these two days.
However, when he came back to check on her after a while, he saw his grandma with such a terrible look on her face, and the air inside the room seemed wrong, although there was no one else around.
He could tell that something wasn’t right, so he asked her what was going on.
Shanhu’s grandma had a terrible look on her face, as she glared at him and asked seriously, “Who on earth was the girl that came to our home today?”
Qu Hua was an arrogant girl, and she might have made up some lies to counter her.
That was why she needed to confirm with her grandson.
“Lady Chaoyan? The doctor from Xinlin Clinic. She was here to check on you.” Shanhu answered.
“Then tell me, is she engaged with Lord Haui?” Shanhu’s grandma asked. If she was just a lady who ran a clinic, there was still some difference. So she needed to know specifically.
Shanhu did not want to admit this fact, but it was a fact after all.
He nodded.
...Shanhu’s grandma had an even worse look on her face. “Why didn’t you say that earlier?”
“Grandma, I told you that she was here to check on you,” Shanhu said.
Then he realized that something was wrong.
“How did you know about Lady Chaoyan, Grandma?” Shanhu asked.
“Qu Hua said that!” Shanhu’s grandma was in a bad mood and found Shanhu increasingly annoying. “Anyway, go and make your medicine.”
Shanhu went to make the medicine, looking timid.
He was in a bad mood too. He could tell that grandma was very satisfied by Lady Chaoyan, and she must have misunderstood something, but there was nothing he could do about it. He could have tried to pursue her if she were not engaged, but now she was and her fiance was a Lord! That was more than people liked him could expect to exceed.
He hoped that his grandma could forget about what happened soon.
Then Shanhu continued to make the medicine.

Gu Chaoyan, who had been the topic of the conversation, was heading towards where Prime Minister Chu was without knowing what was happening.
Li Village was not a very rich place.
Even if the Village Chief had the intention to receive Prime Minister Chu and his men, there was nothing they could do about it. So Prime Minister Chu and his men found a proper place to settle down. They built camps and lived there.
Gu Chaoyan finally arrived there after covering a long distance after she left Shanhu’s home.
She told the guards who she was, then she was let in directly.
Prime Minister Chu asked confusedly, “Lady Chaoyan, what are you doing here?”
“There are many people injured here, and some of them were badly wounded and transported to my Xinlin Clinic overnight. I saved their lives. Yet I heard that one of them has a family member who is sick too, so I came to check on her. He is also not yet recovered and I don’t want all I did to go to waste, so I accompanied to make sure he is doing okay.”
“…”
“I also heard that you are here, Prime Minister Chu, so I came to see you.”
Chu Tian looked deeply at Gu Chaoyan.
