Do I have to be this tired every day?

Yan Yirou froze for a moment.

She was soaked in sweat all over and felt very uncomfortable.

"I'm going back."

Yan Yirou stood up, her brows furrowed in pain.

Gu Chenye looked at her with a burning gaze, but quickly looked away and said, "Don't rush off. You just finished running, so make sure you stretch and relax properly, or you won't be able to walk tomorrow."

Is it that serious?

Yan Yirou suspected that he was trying to frame her.

"Of course, just follow my instructions."

Gu Chenye didn't look at her and started doing stretching exercises.

Yan Yirou glanced at him a couple more times, but he kept his eyes fixed straight ahead.

After she finished the stretching exercises with the man, she asked defiantly, "Can I leave now?"

"Mm." Gu Chenye nodded.

Yan Yirou lifted her foot and walked towards the door.

She had just opened the door when suddenly, Gu Chenye picked up his coat and draped it over her shoulders, saying, "Wear this."

"What are you doing..."

Before Yan Yirou could finish speaking, Gu Chenye said, "Your clothes are wet."

Yan Yirou suddenly looked down, and immediately her face turned red as she grabbed her coat and covered her chest, glaring at him angrily: "Why didn't you say so sooner!"

"Sorry, I've already seen it."

Gu Chenye apologized to her, looking at her intently: "But I don't want others to see this."

"..."

Yan Yirou was stunned for a moment.

Is he being a pervert? Yes, right? Bastard!

Yan Yirou was so angry that she kicked the man.

Gu Chenye dodged reflexively, but when she kicked him again, he deliberately put his leg up to take the kick.

Yan Yirou was stunned.

Why didn't he dodge?

Gu Chenye rubbed his nose: "I'll go to the parking lot to get the car. You wait for me at the front door."

After saying that, he quickly left the gym.

Yan Yirou stood there for a few seconds before hurriedly leaving.

After she got into the car, Gu Chenye asked, "Are you going to the traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy or home?"

"go home."

Yan Yirou was eager to go home, take a shower, and change into clean clothes.

On his way to the Yan family's residence, Gu Chenye received a phone call with orders from his superiors.

"Yes, I can end my vacation at any time."

"Twenty minutes later, I rejoined the team on the rooftop of the Mingtai Building."

Gu Chenye only said two sentences before ending the call.

He stepped on the gas and drove on the road at top speed.

Hearing his words, Yan Yirou turned her head to look at him: "Are you going back to the army?"

Gu Chenye responded, "Mm."

Yan Yirou didn't know why, even though she should have breathed a sigh of relief, she felt inexplicably annoyed.

Eight minutes later, Yan Yirou saw her front door and said to him, "Just park outside. Aren't you going to Mingtai Building?"

"It won't make a difference if it's just two minutes."

When Gu Chenye said he could arrive in twenty minutes, he wasn't just saying it casually; he was confident.

Yan Yirou retorted, "Saving these two minutes means you can drive slower and be safer."

Gu Chenye's pupils dilated.

He could almost hear his own heartbeat, pounding loudly.

The sound of his heartbeat seemed to be telling him four words.

—That's her.

Gu Chenye parked his car at the entrance of Yan Family Ironworks.

Yan Yirou unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car. She turned around, bent down, and looked at him in the car: "Be careful. And thank you for today."

No matter how tired she is from exercising, it's her body, and she's the one who benefits, so she should thank him.

He had no obligation to help her; he helped her out of kindness.

After Yan Yirou finished speaking, she walked home.

Gu Chenye watched her slender back, then suddenly unbuckled his seatbelt, got out of the car, and chased after her.

Hearing footsteps behind her, Yan Yirou turned around and looked back.

She was surprised to see Gu Chenye get out of the car.

The next second, she was wrapped around the shoulder by a strong arm and pulled into an embrace.

Yan Yirou instantly felt the strong masculine hormones emanating from him, so intense that her body temperature soared and her face flushed red.

Gu Chenye's ears were also burning hot.

He hugged her briefly and then let go, his gaze intense and his attitude sincere: "Hello, Yan Yirou, I'm asking you to date me with the intention of getting married."

"..."

Yan Yirou was completely taken aback.

Gu Chenye didn't have time to wait for her to think, but he could give her time: "Give me your answer when I get back, okay? Goodbye."

After saying that, he saluted her, then quickly turned and got into the car.

Yan Yirou watched him drive away, and subconsciously chased after him for a few steps, but soon the car disappeared from sight. When she stopped, the corners of her mouth turned up in a wild smile.

On her way back to the villa, Yan Yirou encountered Yan Yixuan.

Looking at her overly bright smile, Yan Yixuan said jealously, "Sister, you're back from your date so early? Did you run out of places to go? I can recommend a few places for a date!"

Yan Yirou was in a good mood and didn't want to waste time talking to her: "No need."

Yan Yirou walked around her and went up the steps.

"Sister, don't you think it's beneath your dignity to be a rich young lady like you spending all your time working at that traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy?" Yan Yixuan asked, watching her retreating figure.

Yan Yirou didn't turn around: "It has nothing to do with you."

Yan Yixuan stomped her feet twice with a dark expression. Just then, Ji Xianli called.

Yan Yixuan's expression immediately brightened as she answered the phone.

"Brother Xianli".

Yan Yixuan called out in a coquettish tone.

"Did you find out what I asked you to find out?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Yixuan complained, "I just asked my sister about the Chinese medicine pharmacy, but she said it had nothing to do with me and wouldn't tell me anything."
