“If you don’t shut up, I’ll do exactly what you’re afraid of!” Beiming Han tightened his grip on her arms abruptly.
Gu Qingxin turned ashen with fear, daring not to move anymore. Her experience yesterday was terrifying, and she never wanted to go through it again.
That man was downright crazy!
Beiming Han carried Gu Qingxin out of the bedroom. As soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw Huangfu Ye and Bai Jingqing standing at the entrance. When they saw him come out, their eyes couldn’t help but shift to the girl he was holding in his arms.
“Big brother, you’re up early!”
Although Huangfu Ye had seen Gu Qingxin’s appearance yesterday, he was too far away to see clearly. He was burning with curiosity and couldn’t help himself from desiring to get a closer look at her.
He was very curious about what kind of girl could make his usually calm big brother act so abnormal.
“Big brother, do you need help?” Bai Jingqing didn’t dare to act as boldly as Huangfu Ye, but his gaze also kept drifting towards Gu Qingxin in Beiming Han’s arms.
Beiming Han held Gu Qingxin, perfectly shielding her in his arms. Outsiders couldn’t peep at her at all.
He glanced at the two men with his icy wolf-like eyes, his voice was indifferent, but carried an inexplicable deterrence, “Too idle?”
The two men shuddered stiffly and shook their heads in unison…
“Not idle, not idle at all, I have many things to handle in my company.”
Huangfu Ye knew Beiming Han too well. If he didn’t leave now, he’d be in big trouble.
“I have surgeries to perform in the hospital.” Bai Jingqing coughed lightly.
Both of them hastily made their escape.
Since there were outsiders, Gu Qingxin didn’t dare to move.
It was only when the two men left that she let out a sigh of relief. No sooner had she relaxed than the tears she had been holding back fell down again.
He looked down at her, a small, soft, pink creature, her tears rolling down her cheeks like a little kitten. Her pitiful appearance annoyed him.
With a slight frown, he unconsciously quickened his pace.
Beiming Han took Gu Qingxin into a bathroom. He put her on the chair next to the bathtub and reached out to remove the blanket around her.
“What are you doing? Go away, don’t touch me!” In a moment of panic, Gu Qingxin slapped Beiming Han across the face.
With a loud “slap”, both of them froze; Gu Qingxin was scared by her own actions and anxiously looked at her hand.
“You!”
All Beiming Han felt was an upsurge of anger. Every other woman was obedient to him, hoping he would be attracted enough to them just to spare them a glance.
This girl not only persistently rejected him but now even dared to hit him!
He, Beiming Han, had lived so long and this was the first time a woman had ever slapped him!
“I didn’t mean to, I want to go home.” Gu Qingxin began to cry again.
Beiming Han took a deep breath, he was the one who got slapped, and she was acting like she was the one being wronged!
Barely managing to suppress the urge to strangle her, he picked her up roughly and swiftly strode into the bathtub, submerging her into the water.
The warm water gently enveloped her, and even though it was just for an instant, the pain in her body seemed to lessen somewhat.
Gu Qingxin lowered her head, her tears still flowing…
Watching the tear drops fall into the bath, Beiming Han felt a pang of annoyance.
Beiming Han extended his hand to brush her long hair behind her ears, but no sooner had he moved, when Gu Qingxin, as if frightened, looked at him in terror and involuntarily retreated further…
Beiming Han,”…”
The atmosphere became tense, Beiming Han was silent and looked at her for a few seconds, then suddenly got up and stormed out of the bathroom.
Only when she heard the door shut did Gu Qingxin let out a sigh of relief; slowly hugging her knees, she submerged herself completely in the water.
A few minutes later…
The door to the bathroom was opened once again.
Gu Qingxin tensed up, fearing that he was back.
She turned her head to find a group of women wearing navy-blue robes entering. Her heart finally settled.
The leading woman, a middle-aged woman, stood tall and upright with her hands folded over her lower abdomen. She was meticulously trained.
“Hello, young lady, 1 am the deputy housekeeper here. My surname is Yao, you can call me Housekeeper Yao.”
Housekeeper Yao held a hint of disdain in her eyes. She thought that Gu Qingxin’s presence here was merely due to manipulative tactics.
“What is it?” Gu Qingxin held onto her body. She wasn’t comfortable with someone watching her take a bath, even if that someone was a woman.
“The young master asked us to attend to your bath. The water in the bath is not ordinary water. Even if you can’t smell any fragrance, it’s actually a medicinal bath, especially good for small wounds. Regular bathing in it is also beneficial for boosting health. This bath can only be used by the young master.” Housekeeper Yao explained.
Gu Qingxin blinked, no wonder just soaking for a while had greatly reduced her pain.
Now that the pain had subsided to a bearable level, she could finally think. She suddenly realized a grave issue. Yesterday when Beiming Han took her away, where did Qianqian go?
She didn’t return home last night, her mother must be worried sick.
Thinking of these, she couldn’t sit still any longer. She picked up a towel placed nearby and wrapped herself with it, stood up, and stepped out of the bath.
“Miss, what are you planning to do? The young master has instructed that you bathe for an hour before coming out.” Housekeeper Yao frowned at her.
“That’s not necessary, I’m leaving right away.” Gu Qingxin got out of the bath, heading straight for the door.
“Miss, your hair is still wet. Going out like this will make you catch a cold.” Housekeeper Yao dutifully cautioned.
“Phone, I need to call my mom.” Gu Qingxin reached out and grabbed her arm, her face full of anxiety.
“That… 1 need to check with the young master.”
“Where is Beiming Han now? I’ll go look for him.” Gu Qingxin, concerned about her mother and Bai Qianqian, released her and headed out.
“Miss, you are not allowed to call the young master by his name here, you should address him as the young master.” Housekeeper Yao reminded her coldly.
Gu Qingxin thought of her mother worrying over her not returning home yet.
And Qianqian, she was carried away by Beiming Han yesterday, how is she now?
The more she thought, the more anxious she became. She ignored
Housekeeper Yao’s attempt to stop her and ran out of the bathroom quickly..
