Chapter 436, Caiju at Dongli_1

Gu Jian, although happy that Daohua had found a gold mine, still had some reservations about her spending the night outside: "Even though you had a reason, it's still not right for a young lady to stay out overnight on her own."

Unable to help herself, Daohua retorted, "I wasn't out alone; I had Third Brother and Fourth Brother with me."

Gu Jian glared at her: "Those two brothers of yours are still children, not yet capable of handling things on their own. How could they possibly take care of you?"

Daohua: "... Well, I didn't go anywhere else, I went to find Xiao Yeyang. He would protect me. If it were someone else, naturally, I wouldn't have gone."

Seeing his disciple's utter trust in her cousin, Gu Jian suddenly didn't know what to say.

Xiao Yeyang watched Daohua with a smile, secretly pleased. Did her words mean that in her heart, he was different from others, someone she could completely trust?
