On the phone, Gu Xiaobao tilted his head and said, "But I want to take care of Daddy..."

Qin Yiheng walked over, took the phone from Gu Yilou's hand, looked at the little guy on the screen, and patiently said, "With your godfather here, are you afraid that no one will take care of your daddy? You are a good child, but children should just study hard and play well. Don't worry about adult matters, or you'll turn into a little old man."

Gu Xiaobao exclaimed "Ah!" and raised his hand to cover his mouth: "I don't want to grow a beard!"

In his mind, a long white beard meant he was old.

Qin Yiheng raised an eyebrow: "Then go to sleep obediently. Come on, say goodnight to your father."

Gu Xiaobao was easily fooled by his few words and said, "Daddy, goodnight."

Goodnight, Xiaobao.

After Gu Yilou finished speaking, he looked at him with disapproval from off-camera.

Gu Xiaobao said again, "Godfather, goodnight."

"Good night."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yiheng handed it back to Gu Yilou: "What's wrong?"

Gu Yilou said helplessly, "How old are you? Why are you lying to a child?"

"What did I lie to him about?" Qin Yiheng shrugged with a smirk, his movements both roguish and cool, completely unlike his serious demeanor in public.

Gu Yilou looked at him, then decided to stop talking and simply said, "I'll go back tomorrow."

Qin Yiheng frowned: "Didn't we agree to recuperate here?"

"Xiao Bao..."

Gu Yilou had barely opened his mouth when Qin Yiheng interrupted him with three questions in quick succession: "Can't your uncle and aunt take care of a child? Are the Gu family's servants just for show? Should I hire a few people to go over there?"

Gu Yilou's expression changed slightly for a moment, and he said in a consultative tone, "Aheng, my parents are getting old. I can't leave the child with them and hide away to enjoy a peaceful life."

Qin Yiheng saw his expression and suddenly said irritably, "Since you promised, you have to do it!"

Gu Yilou's expression froze.

"You were quite patient with Xiaobao just now."

The implication is that Qin Yiheng is more patient with Xiao Bao than with him.

Qin Yiheng cursed inwardly.

In an instant, he stepped forward, knelt on one knee on the bed, pressed his arm under the neck, and pinned him against the headboard.

"Gu Yilou, don't you know why I'm impatient?"

Qin Yiheng's voice carried three parts annoyance, three parts sarcasm, and four parts coldness.

Gu Yilou's back slammed against the headboard, leaving him with nowhere to retreat.

"Aheng, don't do this." Gu Yilou was already no match for him, and was injured, so he couldn't push him at all.

Did I say something wrong?

Qin Yiheng's gaze towards him carried a hint of danger.

Gu Yilou's pupils contracted sharply.

Knowing he couldn't anger him, he tried to remain calm and said, "You're not wrong, I'm the one who's wrong."

"Huh? You admitted your mistake so quickly?" Qin Yiheng pressed him down with one hand while starting to unbutton his shirt with the other.

Gu Yilou raised his hand and pressed it down, his tone serious: "Aheng!"

"What, are you scared?"

Qin Yiheng's eyes darkened, and the next second, he showed him the injury on his shoulder: "Don't overthink it. I got injured saving you, so shouldn't you consider my feelings a little?"

Gu Yilou saw his gunshot wound. Although it was just a bullet graze, he had indeed tried to save him. He lowered his hand and his voice softened: "I'm sorry."

"I forgive you."

Qin Yiheng acted impulsively. After hearing his apology, he stopped, stepped back, and stood on the edge of the bed, looking down at him.

He didn't want to return to China only to find that he had already left the villa and gone home.

Gu Yilou fell silent upon hearing this.

He really is!

Gu Yilou didn't know how to describe it, but said with a helpless expression, "Your wound is bleeding. Bring the first-aid kit over, and I'll treat it for you."

Qin Yiheng raised an eyebrow, then walked to the coffee table, picked up the first-aid kit, and returned to the bedside to hand it to him.

Then I watched him open the first-aid kit and take out iodine and disinfectant.

"Come sit here."

Gu Yilou looked at him.

Qin Yiheng smiled and sat down, quickly taking off his shirt and presenting his injured arm to him.

Gu Yilou began to treat his wounds. Qin Yiheng did not flinch. It hurt a little when the disinfectant touched the wound, but he could bear it.

Qin Yiheng's arm was only injured by a bullet, it wasn't serious.

Given his skills, he shouldn't have been shot in the shoulder.

After treating his wounds, Gu Yilou packed up the first-aid kit and placed it on the bedside table.

"Your wound has been bandaged up, you can go back to your room to rest now."

Aheng's attitude just now left Gu Yilou at a loss for words.

He could only kick him out and think things through on his own.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yiheng frowned for a moment and said quietly, "My plane is flying to Fatroya tonight. You stay here to recover from your injuries. Someone will take care of you."

Gu Yilou was taken aback: "You're still going over there?"

"No, that's too dangerous! You're still injured." Gu Yilou frowned in disapproval.

Qin Yiheng curled his lips into a smile: "Don't worry, I'm just going to take care of something, not to die. Besides, with you here waiting for me, I'll crawl back even if I have to!"

Gu Yilou: "..."

He looked at Aheng, and there was no hint of a joke in his eyes.

"Can't we go after we've recovered from our injuries?" Gu Yilou asked. He didn't know why he insisted on going to Fatroya. Was it because Sophie was bothering him again?

Logically speaking, since Ah Heng has already returned to China, Sophie should have given up.

After all, as far as he knew, Sophie was never short of men.

To everyone's surprise, Qin Yiheng shook his head: "No, you have to stay here, otherwise I might not make it back alive."

With his attitude like that, how could Gu Yilou feel comfortable letting him go? His face darkened: "You just said you weren't going to your death!"

"Then you'll wait for me here. It's settled then. I'm off."

After Qin Yiheng finished speaking, he strode away, as if if he slowed down, he would hear Gu Yilou's rejection.

Gu Yilou remained silent.

Ah Heng's repeated self-cursing was simply a way to keep him in this villa.

Gu Yilou was not a superstitious person, but at this moment he also gave up his decision to go back to the Gu family after he left.

Let's talk about it when Ah Heng comes back.

Not long after, the sound of a helicopter could be heard outside.

Gu Yilou got out of bed with his cane and slowly walked to the window.

On the lawn of the villa, Qin Yiheng looked up at the room on the second floor and saw Gu Yilou standing by the window. His smile deepened, and his deep eyes flashed with an unfathomable light.

He waved to Gu Yilou, then boarded the helicopter and left.

Gu Yilou watched the helicopter fly further and further away until it disappeared from sight, then turned his gaze back to his bed.

Qin Yiheng sat in the helicopter, wearing black sunglasses, and looked at Qin Buyan, his voice cold: "Is everything arranged?"
