Chapter 497: A Handsome Man Fresh Out of The Bath
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although he did not have his usual appearance now, his arrogant and morose expression automatically appeared in Nan Zhi’s mind and she could not help letting out a giggle.
“I know Young Master Mu likes to be jealous.”
Mu Sihan pressed her against the bathroom wall, his fingers lifting her chin up, his nose touching hers, a faint smile on his face. “Tell me, who likes to be jealous?”
“You… Mmh!”
Her unfinished words were being blocked by his lips.
The fingers holding on to her chin tightened and forced her to open her lips slightly. Seeing that his tongue was about to move into her mouth and entangle her tongue, she quickly pushed his face away.
He held her hand and bit her fingertip.
She hissed with pain and gasped.
She glared at the mean man with her eyes red. “It hurts a lot!”
“Why do you always push me away when I’m kissing you?” He was not very good at expressing himself. He had turned his worry and longing into kisses and used that to convey it to her.
But this damn woman always wanted to push him away.
Nan Zhi drew back the hand that was bitten and covered her mouth, her long eyelashes lowered, not looking at him. She was afraid that she would be soft-hearted if she looked at him and let him kiss as he wished.
“I’ve caught a cold.” She was afraid that she would pass it to him. If he caught a cold at such an important time and split into his brother’s personality, she might be left behind by him again.
She did not want to experience being abandoned by him again. Feeling it twice was more than enough.
Although she knew he had a mental illness and that was not his real intention, the feeling of being left behind was really upsetting.
The moment Mu Sihan heard her words, he understood her meaning.
His eyes darkened and he rubbed her head, then pulled her into his arms tightly. “I’m sorry.”
Nan Zhi shook her head. “I should be the one apologizing for worrying you.”
Mu Sihan looked at her thin and tired face and used his fingers to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes, saying with a low and husky voice, “Did Gu Sheng that damn scum force you to do anything?”
Nan Zhi bit her lip and she said chokingly with a sad voice, “Other than asking me to kiss him tonight, the other times he respected me a lot.”
Except for imprisoning her, he did not use violence or force her to do anything.
Mu Sihan’s gaze that was looking at her darkened. “He kidnapped you and sent another woman to my side. This is a crime that deserves death.”
Nan Zhi opened her mouth, wanting to say something when Auntie Sun’s voice sounded at the door, “Miss Nan, are you still taking a bath? Master wanted me to bring supper and cold medicine up.”
Nan Zhi’s body froze and she gave a look to Mu Sihan, signalling for him to be quiet.
“Put it on the table, I’ll have it after my bath.”
Auntie Sun said okay and turned around, putting down the tray.
Nan Zhi thought Auntie Sun had left but a few seconds later, she heard Auntie Sun’s voice. “Master, Miss Nan is taking a bath.”
Gu Sheng went to the bathroom door and knocked. “Little Flower, you have a cold so don’t be too long. Come out quickly and take the medicine and supper.”
“I’ll be out soon, Brother Gu Sheng. Go to bed first!”
“You’ve lost a lot of weight lately. Next time I have to supervise you when you eat. Come out soon!”
Nan Zhi looked at Mu Sihan, who was close by her and pursed her lips, her heartbeat sped up like it was about to jump out from her throat.
If Gu Sheng found that there was a man hiding in the bathroom, even though Mu Sihan had disguised himself and Gu Sheng would not recognize him, he would not let him off.
Knock knock knock.
The knocking sounded again.
“Little Flower, what are you doing inside?” Gu Sheng voiced sounded tensed.
Nan Zhi replied, “I’m still taking a bath, I’ll come out and eat it later.”
Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes. He was worried that she could not accept tonight’s kiss and would do something silly. He said to Auntie Sun, “Bring me the spare key.”
Nan Zhi furrowed her eyebrows when she heard Gu Sheng asking Auntie Sun to take the spare key.
Mu Sihan’s eyes darkened. The situation was urgent, if Gu Sheng saw him, he would not be able to fight him alone even if he was strong enough.
He reacted very fast, pointing to the bathtub and Nan Zhi understood immediately.
Gu Sheng was going to break in now. If she continued to stop him, it would raise his suspicions.
After Mu Sihan lay in the bathtub, Nan Zhi quickly took off her dress and squeezed bath gel into the bathtub, then lay on top of Mu Sihan.
She made her face and hair wet, and rubbed foam on her arms.
Just after she had done this, the door to the bathroom opened.
When Gu Sheng came in and saw Nan Zhi, who had two slender, fair arms hanging out of the bathtub and a tinge of red on her face, he smiled. “Don’t soak for too long, I’ll wait for you to come out and eat.”
He looked around the bathroom and went out after finding nothing unusual.
The moment the bathroom door closed, Nan Zhi stood up from the bathtub.
She whispered to Mu Sihan, “I can only inconvenience you to stay here a little longer.”
She wiped her body, put a bathrobe over her wet undergarments and went out.
Gu Sheng saw Nan Zhi coming out and led her to the table where the supper was. He sat her down, picked up the hair dryer and threaded his fingers through her slightly wet hair, helping her to blow her hair.
Nan Zhi wanted to stop him but let him be after thinking for a while.
Mu Sihan must have arranged for people to come. Perhaps, this was the last time she would be in such close contact with Brother Gu Sheng.
His actions were gentle and attentive when blowing her hair.
Nan Zhi closed her eyes, a wave of sadness in her heart.
After drying her hair and watching her finish drinking the Pear and Fritillaria Soup, he bent down and kissed her forehead. “Good night, Little Flower.”
Looking at Gu Sheng’s retreating figure, Nan Zhi’s eyes turned red.
How did she and Brother Gu Sheng end up in such a state today?
After confirming that Gu Sheng had returned to his room, Nan Zhi locked the room door, pushed open the bathroom door and went in.
Mu Sihan had already returned to his original appearance. The moment she pushed open the door to enter, he looked over at her.
A face that seemed to be carved meticulously by a master craftsman, it was sharp, cold but handsome. His sharp and long eyebrows, dark eyes, high nose together with his naturally pink lips, one could hardly pick out a single flaw.
When his dark eyes looked over at her, her heart jumped, like it had skipped a beat.
“Gu Sheng’s gone?” The man stood up from the bathtub, asking her while taking off the wet clothes that were sticking closely to his body.
Watching him gradually revealing his strong chest, taut abdominal muscles, Nan Zhi suddenly felt her nose getting hot.
Mu Sihan saw that Nan Zhi was silent and his obsidian-like narrow eyes stared at her, he was stunned when he saw two red lines gushed out of her nose.
