Chapter 1122: Xie Yan’s Departure 4

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xie Yan looked timid.

He had been learning how to become a strategist since childhood, with his teacher. And it had been decades since he became a strategist. He used to work for some businessmen, and some young masters of n.o.ble families in the south, and he was even hired by the Crown Prince later. He had always got what he wanted throughout his life.

However, he had never expected that he would be tripped over by a young girl, who was even more patient and strategic than he was. If that was the case, he decided to go along with her to the end.

Xie Yan calmed himself down and nodded. “Of course I am satisfied by your arrangement, as long as you can help me with it, Lady Chaoyan.”

Gu Chaoyan smiled, hearing this.

!!

She did not have many men working for her, so there would be some difficulties for her to protect Xie Yan, but Shadow Door could definitely guarantee that Xie Yan left safely and went wherever he wanted to go.

Gu Chaoyan smiled confidently. “Don’t worry, Mr. Xie.”

Then she poured Xie Yan a new cup of tea and said, “Please, have some tea, Mr. Xie.”

Xie Yan was still feeling rather annoyed inside at this moment. He was such an excellent strategist and she could just let him stay if she had the intention, so what was she doing dragging the request? He was very displeased and unsatisfied.

He did not want to drink her tea either.

He snorted. “I don’t want to drink it any more, I am going to read now.”

Gu Chaoyan answered with a small hint of disappointment.

She found this man strange.

How on earth did he get on well with an ill-tempered person like Zhou Huailing? It was very strange!

Gu Chaoyan shook her head in confusion. She did not get up, but said to Sword One. “Sword One, please walk Mr. Xie out.”

Gu Chaoyan treated Xie Yan with respect since he was a guest at Xinlin Mansion.

Every time Xie Yan left, she would either ask Sword One or Xiu Jie to walk him to the door, depending on which of them was around.

Sword One nodded and left.

Xie Yan was very furious and turned around, trying to see who was behind him. It was Sword One, as he saw, who was serving Gu Chaoyan.

After a while he asked, “You are working for Elder Miss, right? How many people are working for Elder Miss?”

Sword One smiled.

She asked, “What kind of people do you mean, Mr. Xie?”

“Those who work for your Elder Miss!” Xie Yan said straightforwardly.

Sword One thought for a while, then she said seriously, “Mr. Xie, I am sorry, but I can’t tell you the truth. You are not working for our Elder Miss, and I can’t sell out my Elder Miss!”

Xie Yan’s face stiffened.

He was really furious!

Gu Chaoyan was a tricky woman, so was her maid!

She was telling him that he was not employed by the Elder Miss so she could not reveal anything! Alright then!

“Got it!” Xie Yan said uncomfortably.

Sword One smiled.

Although Elder Miss was not aware of what Mr. Xie intended to do, yet Sword One understood.

Sword One could not help reminding Mr. Xie. “Mr. Xie, I can’t tell you who is working for Elder Miss, but I can share something else with you.”
