Ms. Doctor Divine - Chapter 472
Chapter 472: With Me
Hearing what Lady Chaoyan asked him, the man looked radiantly excited. That meant that Lady Chaoyan had the intention of keeping him.
“My name is Xiu Jie, and I learned some martial arts from my Master. When Master passed away, I settled down at a village by the foot of the mountain and lived on hunting. I am totally alone. As long as you are willing to keep me, I would be willing to die for you on any occasion!” Xiu Jie said with determination.
Gu Chaoyan sipped some tea and looked at him with curiosity.
“Dying for me on any occasion, why?” Gu Chaoyan asked.
“Lady Chaoyan, it was you who cured me, so I got to live. I know that pretty well! Master once told me that I should pay back all the favors I have gotten with much more devotion. You saved my life, so I will sacrifice my life for you,” Xiu Jie said toughly, looking very sincere.
That surprised Gu Chaoyan a little bit. She had thought that Xiu Jie decided to work for her, because it was better to be her employee than being a freelancing hunter.
She had not expected that these were his original intentions.
This was a rare man, in that case.
As Gu Chaoyan was thinking, Xiu Jie assumed that Gu Chaoyan did not believe him or think about hiring him, so he became anxious – he did not know how to socialize well since he was just a tough, martial man, but he was always sincere with what he said.
On the other hand, however, Lady Chaoyan could have some considerations of her own. That was totally understandable for Xiu Jie.
He said directly, “Lady Chaoyan, I don’t have many requests, just some food will do. I can do any work, even small errands, or those that need strength etc. As long as I can pay back the favor!”
Gu Chaoyan waved her hands.
This was indeed an honest man.
“You can just call yourself ‘I’ in front of me.” Gu Chaoyan said, “I do have some errands to run, but not that many minor ones…”
“Lady Chaoyan, does it mean that you are hiring me?” Xiu Jie asked with excitement.
Gu Chaoyan nodded. She had the intention of visiting Yuanxiang, so Gu Chaoyan asked Sword One to get the wagon ready.
Then she turned to Xiu Jie. “I don’t have much work these days yet, but I will drive you to Yellow Crane where you can learn some skills with Manager Song. When you are done, I can get you some work to do.”
Xiu Jie nodded constantly. As long as he could pay back the favor, he could do anything, yes, anything.
Xiu Jie was willing to do that as well.
Gu Chaoyan felt assured.
By this point, Sword One was back, so they all started to go out.
The coachman knew where the Yellow Crane was, so they arrived there without much difficulty.
Gu Chaoyan passed on some messages to Manager Song and then left. Then they went to Saint College together.
On the way there, Sword One asked curiously, “Elder Miss, what do you plan to make Xiu Jie do?”
“He seems like a very reliable person. He can learn some business stuff first. He needs some skills to be with me. I was thinking about bringing Qing home when winter comes, he can take over for Qing in this case,” Gu Chaoyan said peacefully.
Sword One was quite glad as well. After all, Qing was coming home!
They were talking as they came to Saint College. Instead of going anywhere else, they headed directly to where Li Yuanxiang was.
At this moment, Li Yuanxiang was in the middle of making medicine.
