Gu Chaoyan looked up at Zhou Huaijin subconsciously, confusion hovering over her face.
Huangpu Sheng behaved politely in front of Zhou Huaijin. He did not look as natural as a while ago. He looked at Zhou Huaijin attentively.
Zhou Huaijin sat down next to Gu Chaoyan naturally as he gave a pinch on her face. Gu Chaoyan’s eyes widened as she turned her face, flushing. She then threw a glare at Zhou Huaijin.
Zhou Huaijin laughed dryly. He just could not help pinching Chaoyan’s innocent-looking face.
Knowing that she was bashful… he no longer indulged himself in that. He said seriously, “The military camp you are working at belonged to the Senior General Huangpu. If your father truly wants to remove you from the Huangpu Family, then it would not be a good choice for you to remain at the military camp, but it depends on you what your choice is. If you don’t mind, I can introduce you to General Liu’s camp, but you won’t be a general there. You might just be a minor soldier. General Liu is very strict to his soldiers, and you will only become a leader if you work well.”
Zhou Huaijin told Huangpu Sheng the truth.
Huangpu Sheng, instead of hesitating, nodded directly. “I will go to General Liu’s military camp!”
Hearing Huangpu Sheng’s resolute and decisive answer, Zhou Huaijin was slightly surprised. Then he thought for a while and realized that Huangpu Sheng was a man with ideas.
He patted his shoulder. “If you have time, speak about it with Xia Yinghan. I will bring you to General Liu tomorrow.”
Huangpu Sheng clenched his fist. “Thank you Lord Huai. General Liu is a man that most of the soldiers admire, and if I am able to work for him, that would be my honor.”
Zhou Huaijin nodded. He suggested that he should go and speak to Xia Yinghan now. Then he fell into contemplation at the sight of Huangpu Sheng’s disappearing back.
Well, at least Huangpu Sheng, a man born in a general’s mansion, was open hearted for another general’s mansion… that basically meant that he was a broad-minded person. He was a man worth being friends with.
Seeing Huangpu Sheng going into the distance, Zhou Huaijin got up and took hold of Gu Chaoyan. “Come, let’s continue to practise the bow to see if you can hit the center.”
“What if I do? Any rewards for me?” Gu Chaoyan asked naughtily.
“What about a kiss?” Zhou Huaijin answered seriously.
Gu Chaoyan glared at him.
This man was so rude! He was just pinching her face in front of others! How rude!
She took up the bow and started to practise facing the target.
She had not practised for a long while so she failed to hit the center after several attempts, but she finally did it at the sixth attempt.
Gu Chaoyan smiled happily and hopped up and down on the spot.
Zhou Huaijin cupped her face and kissed her on the forehead. “As you wished.”
The next second, Gu Chaoyan punched him hard. She looked at him with a look of scolding.
In the end, Zhou Huaijin asked Gu Chaoyan to take a break in the room. The wind was blowing so hard outside, and she would catch a cold if she was outside for too long.
