Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 1820

1820 Separation 2

Hearing Gu Chaoyan’s orders, the hidden guards dispersed in different directions, diligently carrying out their search. Ouyang Mingjing observed their movements from a distance, his expression somber and contemplative.

He hadn’t antic.i.p.ated that Gu Chaoyan would make such a decision, defying his warnings and venturing out on her own. His heart felt heavy with a mix of concern and frustration.

Longqing asked “City Lord, what should we do now?”

Ouyang Mingjing’s gaze remained fixed on Gu Chaoyan as he replied icily, “Follow her closely and ensure she doesn’t put herself in further danger.”

Longqing nodded, quickly organizing the Snow Territory guards to a.s.sist in the search. However, deep down, Ouyang Mingjing knew that Gu Chaoyan’s chances of success were slim. Snow Territory was a treacherous and intricate land, unfamiliar to them, and simply searching blindly would yield little results.

Moreover, he knew that those people had already taken Zhou Huaijin away, leaving little hope for Gu Chaoyan to find him by herself.

With a resigned sigh, Ouyang Mingjing shook his head slightly and trailed behind Gu Chaoyan, silently observing her desperate cries for Zhou Huaijin. In his heart, the desire to possess Gu Chaoyan grew stronger, regardless of their current relations.h.i.+p.

From his earliest years, Ouyang Mingjing had known his fate as the City Lord, with Gu Chaoyan destined to be his wife. And now…

Ouyang Mingjing felt his anger rise within him. How could she be so stubborn? She was his future wife, yet she continued to search for another man right in front of the Snow Territory guards.

Gu Chaoyan had invested eight long hours into the search, tirelessly shouting Zhou Huaijin’s name. Her pale face had grown even more haggard due to the harsh cold, and it was evident that she couldn’t sustain this frantic pursuit much longer.

Approaching her, Ouyang Mingjing firmly spoke, “You cannot continue like this.”

“….”

“Firstly,” Ouyang Mingjing continued, “your physical endurance is reaching its limit. You will collapse before you have a chance to find him.”

“….”

“Secondly,” Ouyang Mingjing pressed on, “you are unfamiliar with this land. You couldn’t even locate the site of the ambush, let alone find him in this vast wilderness. Despite the hours we’ve been searching, we are still close to where we started.”

“….”

“Listen to my plan,” Ouyang Mingjing implored. “Return to the wagon and take a break. We will continue our journey towards the town, and my men will intensify the search. I will even mobilize my own soldiers once we reach the town.”

“….”

Gu Chaoyan’s head shook.

She couldn’t accept it. She couldn’t bear the thought of giving up. She had to find him, no matter the cost.

He and Fu Bao might have gotten injured during the fight. Even if they were not injured, they had nothing to keep themselves away from cold, and they had no food. They would not make it in such a weather.

She did not want to wait.

She had nothing to linger on in this life, and Huaijin was her only motivation. But if something happened to Huaijin…

There was no point in living on, let alone getting herself detoxifed.

She shook her head and continued to look.

Longqing, who was working for City Lord, could not stand it but stepped forward. “Phoenix Girl, our soldiers would have more efficiency in finding them than you alone. Besides, you are not strong enough to do so.”

Longqing had turned really angry at this moment.

Sword One and Lingyun also noticed that Elder Miss was not looking good either.

Sword One said, “Elder Miss, please, let’s take a break first.”
