The moment he realized that he actually found Hua Jin adorable, Gong Jie became even more awkward and at the same time, vented this gloomy anger on the man in question.
“Why are you glaring at me?”
Without another word, Gong Jie grabbed the actor’s head again and dunked it underwater.
Gulp, gulp…
Alarmed by the noise coming from the corner, the crowd turned to look at what was going on. The actor flailed, then fell limp and unconscious in Gong Jie’s arms…
“What?” Yun Shishi swam towards him anxiously.
“Hua Jin, your assistant… she seems to have fainted!”
“Hua… Hua Jin!” Liang Yin shouted nervously. She had subconsciously called out his name but fortunately, the scene was chaotic and everyone’s attention was focused on him that they didn’t realize it.
Hua Jin had passed out.
…
When Gong Jie fished him out, he thought Hua Jin had drowned. Everyone scrambled around, confused. Among them, Mu Yazhe and Gong Jie were trained in emergency rescue. Without a second thought, Mu Yazhe meted out the difficult task to Gong Jie.
Gong Jie too, didn’t give it much thought. He thought the actor had choked on water. He interlocked his fingers over Hua Jin’s chest and exerted pressure, but nothing happened.
Liang Yin stood by the side, biting on her finger as she watched Gong Jie compressing Hua Jin’s chest. But… that was her body!
Frantic!!!
“How’s she?”
Yun Shishi crouched beside Hua Jin, but there was no response. “Be careful with the compressions,” she said anxiously to her brother. “She’s a girl and her bones are delicate. Don’t break her ribs.”
From the side, Liang Yin chimed in, “That’s right, that’s right. A girl’s bones are very fragile. Be careful not to break her bones.”
Most importantly, this was her body! She still had use for it!
Gong Jie looked glum. “It doesn’t look like she’s drowned!”
Yun Shishi bristled. “Xiao Jie, she’s a girl. How can you be so cruel?! Even if it’s a joke, you can’t do that! What if it becomes a life and death situation?”
“I know what I’m doing.”
As the group of people stood around and exchanged glances, Youyou looked at the actor’s flushed face and asked suspiciously, “Could he have fainted from the heat?”
“…”
“Besides, I remember that there’s an infirmary in the hotel.”
The boy glanced at Gong Jie and said coolly, “Better to get the man to the infirmary than to stand here and stare, eh?”
“…”
…
When Hua Jin came to and opened his eyes, he saw the hanging light above him. He realized with a jolt that he was on a large bed.
There were familiar voices around him.
“You awake?”
“…” Horrified, the actor turned and found himself staring at Gong Jie who was sitting next to the bed.
Why was this guy haunting him everywhere he went!?
Gong Jie’s scowl deepened as the actor stared at him like he’d seen a ghost. “I can put you to sleep again if you have no wish to wake up.”
“Uh… uh-uh, no I’m fine.”
Hua Jin was extremely afraid of the Demon King Gong Jie, he was also extremely timid outwardly.
“Why … why am I here?” He sat up with his head in his hands and asked cautiously.
“The doctor says you had brain hypoxia and lost consciousness from low blood pressure. The bathing suit had caused you to pass out from the heat.”
“…”
