Chapter 1129: Striking Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations When Sword Two returned, Gu Chaoyan had just finished dinner. Gu Chaoyan had not expected Sword Two to return on the same day, so she was a bit surprised to see him.
“He is there already?” Gu Chaoyan asked.
“Yes, Elder Miss, Mr. Xie proposed to stay at Dazhou, so I already put him in an old yard that Shadow Door used to use. Mr. Xie can either stay there or leave for somewhere else.” Sword Two answered accordingly.
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
She had promised to keep him safe for one month when she wanted to know why he broke off with Zhou Huailing and got hunted down.
One month passed, and he was safe.

So how he was going to spend his remaining days depended on him. Gu Chaoyan believed that he was going to make it through given his own intelligence.
She was not going to be involved with his business any more.
“I got it.” Gu Chaoyan answered briefly and decided to go to bed.
Because of the cold wind that blew by during the night, she had caught a little cold. It was not serious, yet it exhausted her. Gu Chaoyan was not feeling as strong as before. So she decided to go to bed after hearing the news.
It was Madame Min’s birthday banquet the next day, and that would require her to stay clear minded.
Seeing the result, Sword One could not help but feel sorry for Mr. Xie. She sighed… Mr. Xie did not think it through so he and Elder Miss could not work together, after all.
Having sighed, Sword One started to make the bed for Gu Chaoyan, whilst Qing helped her get changed.

The following day…
Sword One woke Gu Chaoyan up early in the morning since they had a banquet to attend.
Zhou Huaijin prepared the dress for the banquet for her, and it was delivered to the mansion the day before yesterday. The dress was very fitting. It was a red dress, not a very dull, elegant red, but a kind of brightness that could attract everyone’s attention.
The dress was light with no weighty ornaments. It was very suitable for Gu Chaoyan, who was a young maid, and it made her look like a maid suffused in happiness.
Both Sword One and Qing were satisfied with the dress.
The size and the appearance of the dress fit Elder Miss well, and it was the brightest-colored dress among all the plain-colored clothes that Elder Miss had. They believed that the dress was amazing.
Also, Elder Miss had fair skin, which went well with red.

However, Gu Chaoyan did not think that it was perfect. She believed that something was missing.
Then she realized what the flaw was – the red mark on her face kept her one step away from perfection.
She stared at the mirror for a while, then Sword One said, “Elder Miss, you are still very beautiful, even with the red mark on your face.”
Gu Chaoyan nodded. She did not care much about her appearance, but she wanted to look very pretty, since she had set her mind to getting beautifully dressed.
She painted a small plum-flower on her red mark with the makeup brushes.
She was very satisfied by what she had painted. Then she smiled.
Sword One and Qing were astonished seeing their Elder Miss dressed like this. She looked gorgeous!
“Elder Miss, you must be the most beautiful lady at the Min Mansion. You exceed Gu Ruxue in every way!”
