After changing into new clothes, Ji Zhinan felt much more comfortable, while the man still looked like a drowned rat.

"You should change your clothes too, so you don't catch a cold."

Hearing her concern, Gu Yibei smiled and instantly felt that everything he did was worthwhile.

He patiently replied, "Okay."

Despite saying that, Gu Yibei still personally poured Ji Zhinan a cup of hot water for her to take before starting to tidy himself up.

He was completely soaked, and water was still dripping from his suit. Without saying a word, Gu Yibei took off his coat and threw it aside. His slender fingers went over the buttons of his white shirt and unbuttoned them one by one, little by little.

His clothes were wide open, revealing the man's muscular physique, with his eight-pack abs clearly visible.

Ji Zhinan helped him take off his white shirt, shook out the new one, unbuttoned it, and handed it to him.

Gu Yibei only wore a white shirt. Although he and Ji Zhinan were already in a relationship, he was a complete gentleman and did not act inappropriately. He only took off his shirt jacket, and his pants were still wet.

Ji Zhinan took a clean towel from the side and then looked at him.

With just one glance, the man immediately understood her meaning, his eyes filled with laughter, and he obediently lowered his head.

Ji Zhinan placed a towel over his short hair and carefully wiped it.

Seeing how well-behaved he was, Ji Zhinan's lips curled up, and he spoke as if he were deliberately angry.

"If you don't think of yourself next time, I'm not going to want you anymore."

Before she could finish speaking, the man grabbed her hand. Gu Yibei stared at her with his dark eyes and said earnestly, "Then I'll be a good girl and listen to you. Please don't leave me, okay?"

The next sentence softened Ji Zhinan's heart, and she nodded as if making a promise.

"Okay, as long as you still want me, I won't abandon you."

…………

The two returned to Jiujin Platinum Palace, and Gu Yibei went upstairs to take a shower.

Ji Zhinan sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at the photos in his phone's album.

She doesn't have many photos in her album, and there are only a few photos of her with the old man, because she doesn't like taking pictures.

The Gu family is large and powerful, and especially prestigious. Madam Gu returned to Y country yesterday morning.

Only she and Gu Yibei remained in the vast Nine Brocade Platinum Palace.

Gu Yibei went to take a bath, and Madam Gu had already left.

So she was left alone sitting there in a daze.

"Miss Ji, your hair hasn't been dried yet. Let me get you a hairdryer and help you dry it."

Seeing that Ji Zhinan's hair was wet, the maid stepped forward to ask him what was wrong.

She had just taken a shower and hadn't had time to blow-dry her hair yet.

Upon hearing this, Ji Zhinan looked up and said, "No need."

"But..." the maid hesitated, "If the young master finds out, he will definitely punish us..."

Ji Zhinan has been living in Jiujin Platinum Palace for some time now. Every maid here knows that Miss Ji is the young master's official girlfriend, his precious darling, the kind he cherishes dearly.

The usually elegant, dignified, and aloof lady was like a child in front of Miss Ji, which shows how good the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is.

The Nine Brocade Platinum Palace has changed a lot. It used to be centered around the young master, but now it revolves around Miss Ji. As long as Miss Ji is alright, everything is fine; if anything happens to Miss Ji, no one in the Nine Brocade Platinum Palace can escape it.

Blow-drying hair is a trivial matter for most people, but for Miss Ji, it's a big deal.
