Chapter 275: Chapter 248: Secretly Telling You a Secret
The person who was just full of fighting spirit immediately calmed down as soon as they saw Gu Yanjing, leaning against him and complaining of a headache.
That night, Gu Yanjing received news that Feng Chuanbai had arrived at the Yu Jin Hotel.
But since Gu Yanjing knew Qiao Yuxian would be back late, he attended a dinner instead. He received the news while still at the dinner and instructed Wan Ying to head over first.
On his way, he heard that there was another group present there as well.
He thought it was people from the Yunzhong Building, but it turned out to be Liu Zhou.
He didn’t expect Qiao Yuxian to be there.
Even more unexpectedly, Qiao Yuxian and Wan Ying got into a fight, and she even beat Wan Ying.
Under the bright incandescent light, a noticeable bruise appeared on Wan Ying’s face.
But as for Qiao Yuxian, it wasn’t obvious if she was injured or not.
Gu Yanjing wrapped a single arm around her, catching a faint smell of alcohol: "Been drinking?"
"No." Qiao Yuxian’s voice was clearly not very sober, but her tone was quite confident.
Gu Yanjing: "......"
"Didn’t drink." Qiao Yuxian said, "I don’t drink, I can’t drink. I only drank this much..."
Qiao Yuxian raised her head and then her hand, pinching her little finger with her thumb to show Gu Yanjing: "I only drank this tiny bit. I didn’t drink, I don’t drink."
Everyone: "......"
"Alright." Gu Yanjing obliged, "Are you hurt anywhere?"
"No." Qiao Yuxian leaned back into his embrace.
"Let’s go home." Gu Yanjing said.
"Okay."
Qiao Yuxian obediently responded, stepping out of his arms and standing up straight.
After straightening up, she instinctively glanced behind her.
And then she saw Wan Ying standing dumbfounded in the back.
As soon as she saw him, it was like someone had hit a switch, and she suddenly became aggressive, intent on fighting.
Wan Ying’s eyes widened in fear.
Gu Yanjing quickly held her back.
Qiao Yuxian charged forward but was abruptly pulled back.
She turned around, intending to hit the person behind her, but upon seeing it was Gu Yanjing, she was reluctant to hit his face, so she turned her head again, aiming at Wan Ying.
Gu Yanjing held onto her.
Qiao Yuxian said: "Let’s fight again, we haven’t determined a victor yet."
Wan Ying shook his head: "Madam, I don’t dare, I don’t dare, I lost, I really lost."
"Fight again." Qiao Yuxian stared at him.
Wan Ying: "Madam, I really can’t."
"Fight again!" Qiao Yuxian’s voice was even louder.
Gu Yanjing almost couldn’t hold her back, so quickly he picked her up and carried her out of the hotel.
As he was walking, Qiao Yuxian was still hurling threats at Wan Ying: "Just wait! We’ll meet again. I will definitely knock you down."
Wan Ying: "......" Did he get himself into some kind of trouble?
Gu Yanjing carried Qiao Yuxian away.
There was a brief silence in the room.
Feng Chuanbai’s people had already been completely subdued.
Everyone in the room was stunned for a moment before starting to move.
Shang Chen walked over to Wan Ying, looked at the injury on his face, and asked: "Did you really not recognize her?"
"Yeah." Wan Ying touched his face and moved his arm a bit, everything hurt.
Shang Chen then glanced in the direction Qiao Yuxian and the others had left.
Thinking: Can she really fight that well?
"If Mr. Gu had arrived a little later, I might have been dismantled." Wan Ying said.
Shang Chen looked at him.
Wan Ying said: "What? Don’t believe me? These injuries, these injuries, these injuries..."
Shang Chen’s face went dark, watching him point to here and there at himself.
At this time, Liu Zhou came over, explaining to Wan Ying: "Sorry, Sister Xian had been drinking. Maybe she didn’t recognize you."
Liu Zhou had watched as the thing covering Wan Ying’s face was torn off, and then he still got beaten by Qiao Yuxian.
"It’s okay, it’s okay." Wan Ying said, "I also felt that Madam didn’t seem to recognize me."
"If she recognized you, she definitely wouldn’t have laid a hand on you." Shang Chen dryly defended Qiao Yuxian.
Wan Ying glanced at him, then smiled: "How come it’s been a while, and you’ve grown a spine."
Shang Chen gave him a look but didn’t respond.
...
Gu Yanjing carried Qiao Yuxian out of the hotel and directly onto the car.
Unable to see Wan Ying anymore, Qiao Yuxian settled down.
The two of them sat in the back seat. Qiao Yuxian leaned back against the car seat, sitting quietly for a while, then started rubbing her head.
Gu Yanjing took out a wet wipe, turned her face towards him, and wiped the bloodstains off her face.
The cold, wet wipe touched her skin, and Qiao Yuxian blinked at Gu Yanjing, blinking, blinking...
Once the bloodstains on her face were wiped clean, Gu Yanjing also wiped her hand.
There was a slightly scraped, swollen spot on the back of her hand, from clenching her fist and hitting.
"Did someone force you to drink tonight?" Gu Yanjing asked.
Qiao Yuxian stared at him blankly, seemingly not quite understanding what he was saying, looking straight at him without speaking.
Seeing her dazed little look, Gu Yanjing asked again: "Did you see Nole?"
She had told him in the afternoon that she was going to help entertain a client.
He checked the translation department’s recent work and saw that Nole was in the Capital City today.
Upon hearing that name, Qiao Yuxian frowned slightly, raised her hand, and slapped Gu Yanjing’s hand.
Gu Yanjing’s expression froze, looking at the red handprint that appeared on his hand.
After hitting him, Qiao Yuxian patted his hand again, then moved closer to him, saying: "Gu Yanjing, I’ll secretly tell you a secret."
Gu Yanjing looked at her red moving lips, which were moist and looked really soft: "Alright."
He quietly responded.
Qiao Yuxian got even closer, so close her eyes couldn’t focus well. Her lips almost touched his as she said: "I’ll tell you, I’ve been hiding something from Gu Yanjing."
Gu Yanjing leaned back slightly, pinched her face, and asked: "Who am I?"
"Gu Yanjing." Qiao Yuxian’s lips were puckered slightly from the pinch.
Gu Yanjing looked at her dazed and unfocused eyes: "Are you sure you want to tell me the thing you’re hiding from Gu Yanjing?"
"Yes." Qiao Yuxian nodded heavily.
After nodding, she then covered her head: "It hurts so much."
Gu Yanjing’s hand left her face, slowly massaging her temples.
Feeling comfortable from the massage, Qiao Yuxian gradually leaned closer to Gu Yanjing.
Inching closer until she leaned against him.
Gu Yanjing massaged her temples with one hand.
Qiao Yuxian leaned on him, then sniffed his light, cool fragrance, and kissed his neck.
Gu Yanjing’s fingertips tingled involuntarily.
After kissing him, Qiao Yuxian rested against his side neck, whispering: "I’ll secretly tell you, I stay very close to Gu Yanjing every day, but he doesn’t know."
Her breath touched his neck, warm and cozy, the warmth flowed with the bloodstream into his heart, spreading throughout his body.
Gu Yanjing’s whole body started to heat up, but he still kept a nondistant expression and said calmly: "He knows now."
"Impossible." Qiao Yuxian said, "I didn’t tell him."
Gu Yanjing: "......"
"I only told you, you have to keep it a secret for me." Qiao Yuxian said, "You’re the person I trust the most."
After speaking, she was quiet for a while, suddenly pulling his shirt from his waist, her small hand slipped inside his shirt.
Touching accurately on his abs.
Still delighted that he was the person she trusted most, Gu Yanjing let his guard down and her little hand slid from his abs all the way down to his belt.
He immediately pressed her hand down, pulling her hand back out.
Her hand being pulled back out made Qiao Yuxian a little dissatisfied, frowning and saying: "What are you doing?"
Gu Yanjing looked at her alcohol-flushed face, reddish eyes, and naturally red lips.
His eyes darkened inch by inch, then suddenly he leaned down, pressing her onto the seat, and kissed her...
