Seeing this scene, Qi Che's breathing suddenly stagnated and his brows instantly frowned into a "川" shape.
Thinking of something, he immediately turned his back and said angrily: "Miss Gu, what are you doing?"
Gu Yanran moved in the quilt, and her exposed shoulders deliberately opened the collar half an inch.
"Master Yun, those people are the guards of the Li family. If I am captured by them, I will be skinned alive."
Qi Che remained unmoved: "What does it have to do with me?"
"Why is it irrelevant?" Gu Yanran sat up suddenly, not caring about the quilt sliding off her shoulders. "You and I both work for the prince. Aren't you the spy that the prince has planted next to Chu Qingluan? We are all from the same lineage. Can you just stand by and watch her die?"
The footsteps outside the window were getting closer and closer, and I could even hear the soldiers kicking the door of the house next door.
Gu Yanran's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, and she said without hesitation: "Mr. Yun, I am in trouble now. If you hand me over, what will you say when the prince asks about it later?"
Seeing Qi Che still hesitating, she struck while the iron was hot and had to use her trump card, "You have messed up everything the prince asked you to do, and now you have caused me to be arrested. Do you think the prince will suspect that you have also been bewitched by Chu Qingluan..."
The last sentence hit Qi Che's heart accurately.
"you--"
Qi Che turned around abruptly, murderous intent suddenly appearing in his dark eyes.
Gu Yanran smiled charmingly: "Mr. Yun, hurry up, if you don't come soon, they will break in."
The sound of kicking at the gate was like beating drums, mixed with the soldiers' angry curses: "If you don't open the door, I'll smash it down!"
Qi Che closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was only an icy coldness in his eyes.
He suddenly raised his hand and tore off his jade hairpin. At the moment when his black hair fell, he suddenly grabbed the back of Gu Yanran's head and pressed her onto the bed.
“Woo!”
Gu Yanran didn't expect his actions to be so rough, almost affecting her wound. She couldn't help but groan.
"You are not cooperating well," Qi Che's voice was close to her ear, as cold as ice quenched with poison, "I don't mind sending you to see the King of Hell myself!"
Gu Yanran's heart trembled!
She suddenly thought of the rainy night in the dilapidated temple.
At that time, Qi Che also threatened the person in front of him and made harsh remarks to her!
The scene before my eyes began to vaguely overlap with the face in my memory.
"you--"
Gu Yanran was about to open her mouth when suddenly——
"Bang!"
The door was kicked open forcefully from the outside, and then several men dressed as soldiers rushed in, dispersing all the beauty in the room.
However, immediately afterwards, several soldiers who had originally looked ferocious were completely stunned when they saw the scene before them!
The man's shirt and the woman's skirt were tangled together. Inside the tent, the two entangled figures were forced to separate due to the noise. Indistinctly, one could still see the woman's beautiful figure. Her skin was as white as brocade and dazzlingly white.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like the spring scenery has been disturbed.
"ah!"
Gu Yanran screamed, and in the next second, she hurriedly pulled up the quilt to try to wrap herself up. Her autumn-water eyes also looked pitiful because of the shock.
"Get out!"
Qi Che turned around suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot, half of which was fake, and half was real anger.
He deliberately loosened his collar, revealing a red scratch on the side of his neck caused by a "struggle".
Several soldiers were shocked by the hostility surrounding him, and their hands holding torches paused.
The leader squinted his eyes and looked at the woman on the bed. He only saw half of her face full of shame and anger. There were tears in the corners of her eyes. She looked clearly frightened.
"I'm sorry, we were blind. Let's go now!"
Meeting Qi Che's murderous gaze, the leader raised his hand, signaling the people behind him to turn around immediately and quickly left the room.
He left faster than when he came in.
When the footsteps faded away completely, the anger on Qi Che's face gradually faded away.
He slowly put on his shirt to cover the fake red mark.
"You can stay, but you must remember three things."
Qi Che stood up and stared at Gu Yanran with cold eyes.
"First, you are not allowed to step out of this room;"
"Second, leave immediately after your injury is healed;"
"Third," he swept his eyes across Gu Yanran like a knife, "If you dare to use your charm on me again, I will throw you directly onto the street."
He has never been a gentleman. He has nothing but endless disgust for people like Gu Yanran, and feels sick just by touching her.
No matter how beautiful she is, she is not even one-tenth as beautiful as Chu Qingluan in his mind.
So, he would not give her such an opportunity.
Gu Yanran was wrapped in a brocade quilt, and her shy look had long gone. She tilted her head, her black hair scattered on her snow-white shoulders.
"Mr. Yun is so heartless~" She twirled her hair with her fingertips: "I really admire you...ah!"
Before she could finish her words, Qi Che grabbed Gu Yanran's neck, and then the world was spinning around.
She was thrown back heavily onto the bed, and her neck felt a burning pain.
"It seems you really want to die..."
Gu Yanran shook her head frantically, fear welling up in her eyes, indicating that she would never dare to do it again.
Qi Che then slowly let go of his hand and wiped his fingers with the handkerchief beside him.
This scene almost broke Gu Yanran’s defense.
After all, she is a saint worshipped by everyone. Is she that dirty?
But since she was under someone's roof, she could only bear it for the time being.
“Cough… cough cough…”
Qi Che stood up and threatened her: "If you do it again, I won't mind letting you taste the White Lotus Sect's 'Thousand Poison Spiders'."
