His long legs were no longer under his control, and he stepped forward and picked her up in a princess carry.
Ji Zhinan looked dazed, as if she had gone mad. After falling into Gu Yibei's arms, she didn't make a sound and was eerily quiet.
His arms tightened around her unconsciously, and Gu Yibei lowered his eyes. "Don't be afraid, I'll take you away."
"..."
The gentle words soothed Ji Zhinan's broken heart. She closed her eyes, looking so docile that it was heartbreaking.
Everyone was so shocked by the man who appeared before them that they were speechless.
In less than an hour, one fantastical thing after another happened.
The Ji family's scandal had just been exposed when a refined and elegant man suddenly barged in...
Gu Yibei surveyed everyone present, his cold eyes devoid of emotion, his sharp gaze intimidating, like a razor-sharp sword piercing through the pupils and stabbing straight into the heart.
Everyone who met his gaze trembled violently, the fear coming from their subconscious, and they quickly looked away, unable to meet his eyes.
"Shirakawa," the man said coldly, "remember everyone present, don't miss a single one."
Bai Chuan had never seen Gu Yibei so frightening before. He didn't dare to delay and immediately nodded, "Yes, sir."
Leaving only this sentence behind, Gu Yibei carried Ji Zhinan and strode away amidst the shocked gazes of everyone.
…………
Gu Yibei took Ji Zhinan back to his Jiujin Platinum Palace, where he would stay when he was in China.
Because of its large size and business, Jiujinbo Palace is equipped with butlers and servants for management and cleaning.
Upon seeing his master return, carrying a girl in his arms, the butler paused for only a moment before immediately stepping forward: "Mr. Gu..."
"Have someone prepare hot water, and also call Dr. David over."
After saying that, he hurriedly carried Ji Zhinan upstairs.
The steward quickly responded and then immediately went to the side hall to fetch the family doctor.
Dr. David is a medical doctor whom Gu Yibei hired at a high price; he has made some great achievements in the field of medicine.
Upon receiving the notification, Dr. David immediately rushed to Gu Yibei's room with his professional equipment.
"Mr. Gu, what happened to you!"
Because of the amount of stuff and the speed at which he arrived, Dr. David was out of breath and his speech was slurred when he got there.
However, when he saw Gu Yibei, whom he was worried about, kneeling on the ground and holding the right leg of the girl on the sofa, Dr. David was stunned.
Gu Yibei was examining Ji Zhinan's leg injury when he saw Dr. David arrive, and he stood up.
"Her leg is injured."
"..." Seeing the small wound on Ji Zhinan's leg, Dr. David, who had been in China for many years, finally understood the true meaning of the idiom "using a great talent for a small task" for the first time.
...
I first carefully cleaned the wound with sterilized tweezers to make sure there were no broken glass shards before applying the medicine and then covering it with a large bandage.
"The wound isn't big, but it's best to keep it dry for the next couple of days."
After giving a brief explanation of the precautions, Gu Yibei silently took notes.
After speaking, Dr. David looked at Gu Yibei and asked cautiously, "Mr. Gu, shall I... take my leave now?"
"Mm," Gu Yibei replied quickly, without trying to stop him.
"..." For some reason, Dr. David felt rejected and silently left with his medical kit and a bunch of unused equipment.
After seeing Dr. David off, Gu Yibei touched her hand; it was so cold.
He took her small hand in his, looked at the silent Ji Zhinan, knelt down on one knee and looked up at her slightly: "Dr. David said that the wound cannot get wet for the next few days, so I'll have the maid help you wipe your body. Please bear with it for now, okay?"
