"I was in the restroom just now. You were banging on the door so aggressively, how could they dare to open it!" Chu Jiahe asked in a deep voice, "We were working, what are you doing here for no reason?"
When Madam Chu heard that Lu Xintang had gone on a business trip with her son, she was worried that her son had been deceived, so she rushed over. Unexpectedly, she saw this scene and didn't know whether to be happy or embarrassed. She gently scolded, "Work is not outside, but in the room?"
"Can trade secrets be discussed outside? Besides, Xintang's leg is injured; how can she walk around?" Chu Jiahe retorted in a low voice, "You don't think the three of us are doing something shady in the room, do you?"
Caught off guard by her son, Madam Chu awkwardly retorted, turned and left. As she reached the door, she didn't forget to scold her assistant, "Didn't you say he wasn't here?"
Once Madam Chu had gone some distance, Chu Jiahe glared at Mo Huaixing and demanded, "Who allowed you to come in without permission?"
Mo Huaixing stood up, coldly meeting his gaze, and said sarcastically, "The chairman knows that the young lady is out with unreliable people and is worried that she may be in danger, so he asked me to protect her."
"Since he's a bodyguard, he should know his place." What man would feel comfortable sneaking into his girlfriend's room in the middle of the night?
Mo Huaixing snorted coldly: "Some people, if they can't even make decisions about their own marriages, should just stay home and be good sons, and not go out and ruin other people's daughters."
Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Gan Tang was worried they would start fighting at any moment, so she hurriedly said, "Jiahe, go check on your aunt, don't let her..."
She couldn't bring herself to say "misunderstanding," so she changed it to "angry."
"Xintang, take care of yourself. I'll come see you tomorrow!" Chu Jiahe glared at Mo Huaixing and turned to leave.
After the door closed, Gan Tang asked Mo Huaixing, "Did Dad send you?"
"I..." Mo Huaixing mumbled without answering the question, "...I didn't mean to disturb Miss's good time. I was waiting downstairs when I unexpectedly saw Madam Chu."
"Thank you, you should go back and rest!" Gan Tang stood up, supporting herself on the sofa, and walked slowly and laboriously towards the bed. Because she had rushed over, her bandaged wound had started to bleed again.
Mo Huaixing took two steps forward, picked up Gan Tang horizontally, and placed her on the bed.
"I'll bandage you up and then I'll leave!"
After saying that, he moved a chair over and sat down, carefully rolled up his trouser leg, and removed the blood-soaked bandage.
The lingering scent of the previous incident still filled the room, refusing to dissipate.
Gan Tang pulled her leg back, covered her wound, and lowered her head to urge him on: "You should leave quickly. If Yi He comes back and sees you like this, he will be unhappy."
Chu Jiahe, it's Chu Jiahe again.
"Don't worry, I'll leave right away!" Mo Huaixing suppressed the impulse in his heart and carefully unwrapped the gauze.
The wound, which had been open, became infected after being treated with ointment and soaked in water, and it looked even more gruesome, making people both angry and heartbroken.
Mo Huaixing asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
"What else can we do? Let's find another opportunity... Ouch... It hurts..." Gan Tang winced in pain. "Mo Huaixing, can you be a little gentler?"
"You know pain too!" Mo Huaixing ignored her pleas and continued to squeeze out the thick blood, but he was still a little gentler.
The composure she had been maintaining finally crumbled under the pain of her wounds, and Gan Tang choked out, "Mo Huaixing, if you came here to laugh at me, you've seen it all. Get lost!"
As she spoke, she kicked him.
"I'm sorry!" Mo Huaixing pressed his foot and gently applied ointment. "Are you so sure that if you get pregnant, he will definitely marry you?"
"Of course!" Gan Tang's face remained calm, as if she were talking about someone else's business: "Dad said that as long as I get pregnant, he will take care of the rest."
"In the entire Chu family, there has never been a woman who married into the family after becoming pregnant out of wedlock. Even the chairman cannot guarantee that everything will be perfect. Do you know what the consequences will be if you become pregnant and cannot marry Chu Jiahe?"
In matters of love and sex, women will always face more criticism from the public.
"I'm willing, what's it to you?" Gan Tang was annoyed by his antics, snatched the gauze from his hand, and started to chase him away.
"You'd better not regret it."
Mo Huaixing snatched back the gauze, wrapped it tightly around his neck, picked up the stool, and left.
With a thud, the stool crashed to the ground, sending shivers down everyone's spines. At that moment, Mo Huaixing's hands, gripping the back of the chair, were bulging with veins, and his eyes were fixed on Gan Tang like a raging tiger.
Seeing Mo Huaixing turn back, Gan Tang was terrified and instinctively swung her pillow, yelling, "What are you doing?"
The pajamas that were under the pillow were lifted up and fell right onto Mo Huaixing's feet.
It was incredibly awkward.
However, these pajamas were much better than a pillow, successfully blocking Mo Huaixing's path and forcing him to take two steps back and turn around hastily.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Gan Tang said, bending down with difficulty to reach for her pajamas.
Mo Huaixing said, "I have a way to change Madam Chu's impression of you. Would you like to give it a try?"
"Okay, what's the plan?"
"Kidnapping!"
"ah?……"
The more Gan Tang thought about it, the more unreliable it seemed, but she still nodded as if possessed.
As the two expected, the next morning, Madam Chu, worried that Miss Lu would continue to pester her son, invited her to return to Jinhai City on the grounds that she was injured and could no longer work.
Gan Tang readily agreed.
At the hotel entrance, Gan Tang said to Madam Chu, "Auntie, let me ride in your car. Assistant Mo still has some work to take care of."
"Alright!" Madam Chu had no choice but to agree. She was the one who invited them back together, so how could she refuse?
After the group said their goodbyes, Mrs. Chu's car slowly drove out of the hotel.
