Chapter 620: Zhao Yiqiu

Gu Chaoyan looked at Zhou Huaijin. She was about to say something, but no sound came out.

She liked him deeply, so she did not want to lose him. And she started to be cautious about everything she did. There should not be any lies between them, but she truly could not utter a word now.

Zhou Huaijin looked at her. He guessed that something must have happened to Chaoyan, but he had no idea what happened between them within such a short period of time.

He looked at her, and saw that Gu Chaoyan was silent for a while.

Zhou Huaijin did not want to give her a hard time, so he pretended that nothing happened. He said with a normal tone. “Let me tell you something happy.”

“Those refugees have all been accepted to the city and now they are arranged in the settlement room. Soon there will be some more refugees coming in, but that will not be a big problem any more,” Zhou Huaijin said.

Gu Chaoyan was already distracted by the refugees, she said happily to Zhou Huaijin, “Is that true?”

Zhou Huaijin nodded.

Chaoyan’s idea was great – she had dealt with the problem within a shorter period of time.

Usually, hundreds of people would have died in the past, but this year, things were different. Everything was handled so fast, so apart from a few dozen people who passed away because of the cold, there was no one else who died.

The refugees were so grateful to Chaoyan. They treated Chaoyan as a Goddess! The only problem was…

“Yet the food supply is terrible. The food Zhou Huailing arranges every day is so little, just like water. They don’t even get steamed buns! They are not sick of coldness, they are tired of hunger!” Zhou Huaijin said concernedly – he had no idea what was going on when he was out on business a couple of days ago, but when he checked today, he finally knew what was happening with the food.

Gu Chaoyan was very angry hearing the words too. Those refugees were not even fed? The King could not have been so ruthless. It must be Zhou Huailing who was the barrier, but whatever the case was… They had to be fed first.

“I have quite a lot of money in storage, I will ask Sword One to fetch some and buy some food for them. We have spent so much energy on saving them from the cold, so they should not die because of starvation!” Gu Chaoyan shook her head, very unsatisfied with what Zhou Huailing had done.

Zhou Huaijin nodded.

That was a good idea, but he could not let Zhou Huailing slip away from this. He was going to make a petition about this in the morning session the next day.

Gu Chaoyan was no longer in such a bad mood, since she was distracted about something else.

That made Zhou Huaijin feel slightly assured.

He had not wanted to tell her about the refugees, but he believed that he had to get Chaoyan busy so that she could be distracted from whatever happened to her.

He felt her head. “I will ask my men to deal with this matter for the time being. When you get better, I will take you there. And Xiao Jin is waiting outside the city for you to assign him some errands.”

Gu Chaoyan nodded and started to make a plan.

Zhou Huaijin had already gotten up. He had been worried that if he stayed here for too long, she would be stressed, so he got up and said, “I need to run other errands, please take a rest. I will ask Sword One and Qing to take care of you.”

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

Zhou Huaijin then left the room. When he was gone, he started to head towards Zhao Yiqiu’s yard.
