The reason why Zhou Huaijin informed Gu Chaoyan about it, was because he would like to recount to her the whole thing clearly, so that she could have a clear understanding of what was going on, rather than being told later from somewhere else.
However, he had not expected that Chaoyan would feel so concerned about him!
He caressed Gu Chaoyan's head and said, "I am fine."
"…"
"What matters to me is the Queen and Xunyang, as for my father… I have been aware since I was a little boy of what he is up to, so I am not sad about those things."
"…"
"I am just telling you what has happened, so please don't be sad," Zhou Huaijin said with a soft voice.
Despite what he had assured her, Gu Chaoyan still felt a bit concerned for him.
The King was his father, but he even sacrificed him for what he desired. Even though Lord Huai did not care, that was not what a father should do! Gu Chaoyan felt really annoyed.
