Wen Yi remained silent; she didn't believe Gu Erye's nonsense.
He must have something to do when he comes back, but whatever it is, it's not Wen Yi's business.
As Wen Yi put down her phone and prepared to get up to change her clothes, Second Master Gu stepped forward and placed his hand on Wen Yi's shoulder.
Wen Yi looked up at the reflection of Master Gu in the mirror, her expression puzzled.
"Dry your hair promptly after washing it."
He said, patted Wen Yi on the shoulder, then turned and went to the bathroom to get the hairdryer, took the towel off Wen Yi's hair, and let the black, wet hair fall down.
Gu Huaixu lowered his eyes and used a hairdryer to dry Wen Yi's hair.
The man's face was ruined, but his physique and every detail were top-notch, especially his fingers, which were well-defined, beautiful, and long.
Wen Yi watched silently as those beautiful fingers moved through her black hair.
The man's movements were not hurried; on the contrary, they were particularly slow and patient as he combed Wen Yi's hair strand by strand, drying it until it was smooth and soft.
Wen Yi watched silently, and memories began to surface uncontrollably in her mind of how Ah Xu would often blow-dry her hair like this when they were in the rented apartment.
She would occasionally sit at the dressing table, but most of the time she would lie on the sofa with her head on Ah Xu's lap while she read a book and Ah Xu would blow-dry her hair.
Wen Yi closed her eyes; she really couldn't recall her interactions with Gu Huaixu properly.
The memory is always a deep pain for Wen Yi.
Wen subconsciously bit her lip, but couldn't stop the throbbing pain in her heart and the stiffness in her body. She even started to feel cold and broke out in a cold sweat.
"What are you thinking about?"
The hairdryer noise was turned down, and Gu Huaixu looked up at Wen Yi in the mirror.
Her emotions were clearly very off.
Wen Yi bit her lip until it bled, forcibly suppressing the pain, and shook her head, "It's nothing, I just feel a little unwell."
"Did Lin Na bully you today?" Master Gu continued to ask, squatting down to help Wen Yi blow-dry her still-damp hair.
Wen Yi clenched her fist. "No."
"Has the redness and swelling on your cheek not been treated?"
"It's nothing serious, you'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
"Sigh, such a grown-up, yet still can't take care of himself."
Master Gu sighed deeply and turned off the hair dryer.
This sentiment sounds like it came from Wen Yi's husband, with whom she had shared a sweet life for many years. Wen Yi was already in a bad mood, and now it made her even worse.
At the same time, there was a knock on the door.
Gu Huaixu put away the hair dryer, rolled up his shirt sleeves to his arms, and walked toward the door.
When I opened the door, a maid was there with a towel, ice, and ointment to apply.
Gu Huaixu took it and said, "Go down."
The servant didn't dare linger and quickly closed the door and left.
Gu Huaixu carried the things over and placed them on the table. Wen Yi trembled violently and could no longer suppress her emotions. "I'm sorry."
After she finished speaking, she immediately covered her mouth and rushed to the bathroom.
Wen Yi stood weakly in front of the sink, supporting herself with her hands, and bent over to vomit, but nothing came out.
A chill ran through his body, and his forehead was covered in beads of sweat.
Her eyes were red from the makeup, and tears welled in the corners; she was in great pain.
Ke Wen was anxious to compose herself, fearing that Second Master Gu would come in and see her in such a disheveled state.
Whether it was out of pride or something else, Wen Yi was always genuinely afraid of him coming in.
She tried to make adjustments while getting anxious, but the more she adjusted, the more anxious she became, and the worse the situation got.
Knock knock knock.
There was a knock on the bathroom door, and Wen Yi's alarm bells went off, her whole body tensing up.
"I'm dealing with work matters, so it's not convenient for me to tell you. Come out later."
The cold voice of Master Gu rang out, which also relieved Wen Yi's anxiety and tension.
She sat limply on the ground.
Although I still felt very uncomfortable, my breathing gradually became easier, and the nausea and cold sweat gradually dissipated. I slowly got better and began to calm down.
Wen Yi stayed inside for quite a while. After calming down, she went directly from the bathroom to the dressing room, changed her clothes, and then left the room.
At first glance, you see a man wearing a mask, leaning against the dressing table.
The man twirled an unlit cigarette in his hand, his eyes lowered as if deep in thought.
Looking at him from this angle, Wen Yi felt that he looked like Gu Huaixu, but at the same time, he didn't look like him at all.
Ah Xu is bright and dazzling, the stunning type.
This man clearly possessed a maturity and composure that Gu Huaixu lacked, as well as a mysterious aura that made him unfathomable and difficult to understand.
Wen Yi had spent a moderate amount of time with this man, but she still couldn't figure him out from his behavior and style.
It's hard to understand.
"If you keep looking at me like that, I'll think you've already fallen for me."
Wen Yi was lost in thought when the man's voice suddenly rang out, bringing her back to her senses. She immediately looked away, feeling inexplicably guilty.
But then she thought, what the man said wasn't true, so why was she feeling guilty?
How ridiculous!
Wen Yi composed herself, straightened her back, and walked towards him. "Second Master Gu has an excessive sense of self-worth."
In other words, you are too self-righteous and too confident.
Gu Huaixu turned his head to look at Wen Yixiao and said, "That's because Madam was staring at me so intently that it made me confident in my charm."
“Perhaps Second Master Gu is more prone to wishful thinking.” Wen Yi was the most unwilling to admit defeat.
"Oh, I was just being presumptuous."
Gu Huaixu said with a sigh, but his tone and eyes clearly implied that Wen Yi refused to admit it.
Wen Yi looked away.
Gu Huaixu suddenly reached out and pinched Wen Yi's chin. "To be honest, Madam's plain and elegant face is quite captivating once she puts on makeup."
"That means I'm very charming and can win over Master Gu?"
"What are you saying, Madam? It is your innate ability to move people's hearts, so why are you asking me this?"
Wen Yi had expected the other party to deny it or say something sarcastic, but instead they said something like that, leaving Wen Yi unsure how to respond.
While she was still in a daze, Gu Huaixu had already placed the towel wrapped with ice on Wen Yi's face.
Wen Yi was suddenly chilled, and her body instinctively shrank back, but Gu Huaixu grabbed her chin and said, "Don't move."
Wen remained completely still.
He gently massaged the spot where Wen Yi had been hit, his movements soft and his gaze slightly lowered. Wen Yi watched him intently, and suddenly became absorbed in the moment.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet and still. The lights from outside the window and the moonlight mingled, quietly illuminating this small space.
Only when the man released Wen Yi and applied ointment to her swollen skin with his fingertips did Wen Yi feel waves of numbness spreading from her cheeks, causing an unnatural tingling sensation throughout her body, and even making it difficult to breathe...
