Wuhen nodded and said seriously, “That is true. You attended the wedding ceremony too, but after the wedding, you asked the Princess Consort to stay in the backyard instead of visiting her. Auntie asked you if you are bringing the Princess Consort on your trip, so you can have some children this year, but you turned down that proposal.”

Zhou Huaiyu frowned and looked helpless.

Wuhen was a serious man.

Well, he could drop this question. Zhou Huaiyu put down the teacup in his hands with a look of helplessness. Then he decided to get up and have a nap in his own room.

Zhou Huaiyu was different from his Eighth Brother. His Eighth Brother had his own mother before he got engaged. Despite living outside the court, his Eighth Brother could visit the court whenever a festival came around. He did not feel lonely at all. He even had his own favorite girl with him after his engagement, and now he had her with him on this trip. That made him happy too.

However, Zhou Huaiyu, on the other hand, had been a lonely man since childhood.

It gave him a much easier time to travel alone. He would not be used to being accompanied by someone, so he was not jealous of his Eighth Brother at all.

With these things in mind, Zhou Huaiyu felt quite happy after being convinced by himself.

Everyone was having a nap in their own individual rooms and did not come out until dinner time. They were going to have dinner on the second floor.

Zhou Huaijin had already gotten the ingredients ready for three chefs to make the dinner. So they did not need to worry about food during the period on the boat. The food was abundant and delicious too.

Gu Chaoyan and Sword One walked out of their room too. However, Gu Chaoyan had become paler despite the nap she just took.

Sword One was very worried. She urged Gu Chaoyan to take a pill when she got up. She wondered if the pills would make her feel slightly better.

Zhou Huaijin noticed her pale-looking face the moment they met outside the room and got startled.

He thought that she would recover after the nap, but now it seemed that things were getting worse. What was going on? He came and took Gu Chaoyan’s hands as he looked at her and asked worriedly, “What is going on? Are you not feeling well?”

Gu Chaoyan shook her head. She did not want any of them to make him worried.

“It is fine, not a big deal. I am not used to traveling by boat,” Gu Chaoyan said with a forced smile.

Zhou Huaiyu, who saw the scene, asked Wuhen to fetch him something.

Wuhen hurried over and passed it to Gu Chaoyan. “Take this. You have little experience in traveling on a boat, which makes you feel uncomfortable. I ran into people having the same problem in the past. I wasn’t sure if any of you would have the same issue, so I got this medicine ready for you. Take some, and eat some food with it, then you will get better.”

Gu Chaoyan looked up at Zhou Huaiyu.

She was surprised and amazed. She had not expected that he could be such a careful man, seeing that he never had a good taste in drinking tea.

She took the bottle of pills, then she ate two of them.

She kept the bottle, in case she ran into the same problem again.

Zhou Huaiyu said nothing more, and continued to get their dishes ready.

The dinner was very luxurious. It did not look like they were traveling on a boat.

However, Gu Chaoyan still had no appetite for any of the dishes.
