Hu Bing was unaware that An Yan had reached a point of desperation, resorting to seduction as a last resort.
An Yan is quite satisfied with the results, feeling they are significant.
Around 12 noon.
After having dinner at the hotel, the group returned to the manor villa.
Chi Yining and Yan Guiyun were so inseparable that it would normally be an eyesore for Gu Chengyuan. Perhaps it was because Shao Chongsi had been trying to distract him lately that he didn't even realize Chi Yining was back.
"What's wrong with you?" Gu Chengyuan looked at the floor where Princess Pea had slept all night, and out of humanitarian spirit, he reluctantly gave her a blanket in the middle of the night.
Shao Chongsi was eating his meal while clutching his lower back, his expression showing signs of pain.
After swallowing the rice in his mouth, he pitifully turned to Gu Chengyuan and replied, "It hurts so much... A-Yuan."
Gu Chengyuan: "..." He brought it on himself.
"Alright, stop playing the victim. I'll put some ointment on it for you in a bit."
The people around, unaware of the situation and quietly eating, nearly choked on their rice upon hearing this.
Jia Mingchuan: "!!!" I didn't realize Film Emperor Gu was so fierce.
Mo Li hadn't expected the guests here to be so wild... It really made him, someone who had never been in a relationship, feel a little embarrassed, so he could only listen attentively while pretending to bury his head in his food.
Just as Chi Yining was passing by the refrigerator on her way back, intending to grab two bottles of water to take upstairs, she overheard this. She was completely stunned, and the water bottles slipped from her hands, bouncing a few times before rolling several meters away.
Holy crap! The shippers are all wrong...
Socially awkward Chi Yining couldn't care less about anything else at the moment; all he felt was sadness, and he picked up the water bottle in dejection.
The restaurant and the refrigerator were not far apart, and Gu Chengyuan also heard the noise. He turned his head and saw Chi Yining bending down to pick up two bottles of water from the ground.
Gu Chengyuan: "Are you alright, Yining?"
Chi Yining: "..." I have something to say!
He only stayed one night, but his shipper has already been living together and even slept with him!
As expected of the Film Emperor Gu from the original book, he's really something else—he can even win over a tall lawyer who's 190cm tall...
Having recently been cramming on information about same-sex relationships, he naturally has some understanding of these sexual attributes...
But how could this be!
And Film Emperor Gu's indifferent attitude afterward was really scummy!
So, he looked in Film Emperor Gu's direction, shook his head slightly in disappointment to indicate that he was fine, and then stepped onto the stairs.
Yan Guiyun was also standing not far away, waiting for Chi Yining to bring out the water. He happened to hear the conversation between Gu Chengyuan and Shao Chongsi.
He then cast a pitying glance at Shao Chongsi.
Just then, Shao Chongsi looked up and caught Yan Guiyun's gaze, his face full of confusion. What's going on?
He then turned to look at the others. Chai Yi coughed twice and turned his head away...
Chen Shiyu looked down at his toes gripping the slippers tightly...
Li Qingmi looked up at the sky.
Shao Chongsi: "No? What's wrong with you?"
Jia Mingchuan pursed his lips, glanced at him with regret, and said, "It's alright... get some rest, and eat less spicy food."
Shao Chongsi, who loves spicy food, paused, his chopsticks in hand, thinking to himself, "These people are really strange."
As everyone left, Shao Chongsi grabbed Gu Chengyuan's hand, and only then did he notice that Gu Chengyuan's face was somewhat red.
" A-Yuan, what's wrong?" Worried, Shao Chongsi immediately reached out and touched Gu Chengyuan's forehead. "It's so hot, are you running a fever?"
Gu Chengyuan: "..." How am I supposed to talk to this idiot? He only realized it belatedly, and now he's doomed...
"It's okay, go apply the medicine." Since there's no way to explain it now, it's better to take care of this "injured" person to avoid being called a jerk...
