Chapter 713: Bottomline
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hearing what Zhou Huaijin asked, Xuan Lin let out a sigh of relief inwardly.
He had to admit that despite being younger than Lord Ling, Lord Huai was much more difficult to deal with. Lord Ling was too stupid to hide his ambition and desire, so his characteristics were totally exposed to the public.
That was why Xuan Lin never looked up at Lord Ling despite the King’s preference. He thought that Lord Ling was too stupid to be compared to himself, but he just could not see through this Lord Huai even after spending so much time here. That was why he had been very nervous when he tried to raise the deal. However, now, he was very proud inside.
Even a man like Lord Huai would become interested in the magical monsters.
There were numerous magical monsters in the North Qi Land, and they could easily offer dozens. Xuan Lin just could not stand Lord Ling telling him that that woman belonged to Lord Huai. He was going to get that woman to prove himself in front of Lord Ling.
Xuan Lin smiled brightly.
Seeing Lord Huai asking him the question he said straightforwardly. “I want Lady Chaoyan, yes, Lady Chaoyan, you…”
Before Xuan Lin was about to say something, Zhou Huaijin gave him a punch directly to the face. Then he kept punching him.
Xuan Lin had some skills in martial arts, but he was not at all a match against Zhou Huaijin.
His staff had just gone out, so he had no guards protecting him.
Zhou Huaijin spared no efforts, but kept beating the man in front of him.
Xuan Lin got so frightened that he shouted loudly, “Help me, help me!”
The staff outside were about to rush in when Zhou Huaijin lifted the man and threw him outside, breaking a big hole in the door.
Zhou Huaijin approached him step by step. He looked at Xuan Lin who was covered with blood and said coldly, “One more such word and you will get more than this, get lost!”
When the order was passed on, Xuan Lin was carried out by the guards at Lord Huai’s Mansion, whether or not Xuan Lin wanted it.
Xuan Lin had few guards with him, and they were not a match against those people at Lord Huai’s Mansion, so they were thrown out directly.
Zhou Huaijin looked very angry.
He was never an impulsive person, especially when it came to the princes and ambassadors from the other three countries, because he wanted peace to remain in the four countries so that people could have peace, but he had his bottomline.
That was Gu Chaoyan. No one was allowed to humiliate and insult Gu Chaoyan.
“Fu Bao, has the man you sent to North Qi Land returned yet?” Zhou Huaijin asked coldly.
“Not yet.” Fu Bao answered and then thought for a moment. “But they should be back in a couple of days.”
Zhou Huaijin nodded, then he left angrily.

She accepted the Empress Dowager’s advice and put on the red dress. Then she held the food and went to visit the King..
