C7 How Embarrassing

Mu Li ran out of the bathroom, used a tissue to cover his nose, and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.

How embarrassing! How embarrassing! It's not like I've never seen a man in my life, how did he end up like this?

He wanted to stop the bleeding, but the more he wiped, the more blood came out of his nose.

"What are you doing? "Why aren't you coming in yet?" Gu Tingxiao's voice came from the bathroom.

"He'll be here soon." Mu Li resisted the urge to think before letting the blood in his nose stop. He threw the paper into the basket and took a deep breath before walking in again.

This time, Mu Li did not dare raise his head. He only picked up the towel on the bathroom table and gently wiped it.

"Are you afraid of me?" Gu Tingxiao turned around and saw that the woman had kept her head down. He couldn't help but smile.

"No …." "No."

"Then why don't you look up at me?" In the next second, Gu Tingxiao used his strong arms to drag Mu Li into the bathtub.

Mu Li screamed as her entire body was submerged in the water. She was so frightened that her face turned pale. When he raised his head, his eyes met the man's face.

Mu Li's face instantly flushed red. Gu Tingxiao covered her mouth and said, "Don't shout, otherwise the servants downstairs might misunderstand."

Mu Li's face was so red that blood was about to drip out. Can this man not be so improper?

Upon seeing Mu Li's nod, Gu Tingxiao finally took his hand off.

Afraid that he would be as useless as before, Mu Li wiped his back before fleeing the bathroom.

Gu Tingxiao laughed out loud. It had been many years since he last laughed in such a relaxed manner. This little girl was quite interesting.

Gu Tingxiao wiped his body clean, then pulled out a pair of pajamas and put them on before walking out.

Inside the bedroom, Mu Li was already lying on the bed, tightly wrapping himself in a blanket.

Gu Tingxiao couldn't help laughing, "If you continue to be so bored, you'll probably get bored out of your mind. I don't want my newlywed wife to be sent to the hospital to be rescued just like this."

Mu Li heard the man's voice while he was hiding in the blanket. Although this was normal, it sounded a little more delicious in the man's mouth.

Mu Li did his best to calm his heart down and not think about the embarrassing situations that just happened. He inched closer to the bed, leaving a spot for Gu Tingxiao.

"Are you inviting me?" Gu TingChen walked over to Mu Li's side and approached her slowly. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, revealing a devilish smile.

"I …"

"Alright, I won't scare you anymore. If you're tired, then rest first. I still have some matters to attend to in the study room."

"Then you …" I need to come back early and rest as well. "

Although Mu Li wasn't one of those lecturers who spoke fluently, he didn't think he'd stumble over his words. But why was it so awkward talking to this man today?

"Alright." Gu Tingxiao raised his hand to rub Mu Li's head before turning around and leaving the room.

After a long while, Mu Li came back to his senses, and the only person left in the room was himself, lying on the bed in a daze.

Tonight was definitely the most shameful night he had ever experienced.

However, did Gu Tingxiao touch his hair just now? Mu Li's hands touched his face, feeling hot.

Upon entering the study, Gu Tingxiao's smile gradually disappeared. Instead, he had a cold expression that was usually stern and indifferent.

Ye Zichen took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Young Master, do you have any instructions?"

"Go find out what happened to Mu Li's mother, and what happened to Mu Yan and Gu Tinye." He wasn't interested in investigating these matters before, but now, he unknowingly wanted to understand everything related to Mu Li.

"Yes sir!"

Although he did not know what was going on, why did the young master suddenly investigate this matter? But as a subordinate, he should not have asked these questions.

It was 1: 00 in the morning when Gu Tingchen finally raised his head from his work. When he looked at the time, he realized it was already so late.

When he returned to the bedroom, the woman on the bed was already fast asleep, not a single sound could be heard.

Gu TingChen slowly raised his hand and caressed Mu Li's cheek. When he touched her with his fingertips, he discovered that her skin was so wet that it felt like it was made of water.

Gu Tingxiao did not go to bed. Instead, he went into the bathroom. Soon, the sound of flowing water could be heard again.
