Having escaped the ordeal, Gu Jiu patted his chest with lingering fear after leaving the pavilion, feeling as if for a moment, his Third Master had truly wanted to kill him.
That's terrifying!
He'd rather die than ever step into that pavilion again!
No wonder Third Master always said he didn't like being disturbed and told him to stay away.
Only today did he realize that the Third Master told him to stay away not because he would disturb his work, but because the pavilion was directly opposite Miss Chuxia's boudoir!
fortunately!
Thankfully, Miss Chu Xia was dressed perfectly fine just now; otherwise, he might have gone blind...
That afternoon, faced with a pile of documents a foot high, Gu Yuheng lost all interest in working.
He stood with a sullen face, leaning against the stone pillar of the pavilion, seemingly lost in thought. Even from a distance, Gu Jiu could feel the chill emanating from him.
More than an hour later, Gu Yuheng, who had been motionless in the pavilion like a stone statue, finally moved. As he passed by Gu Jiu, he uttered these cruel words:
"Keep an eye on this! Don't let anyone enter that pavilion, including yourself! If you wander into that pavilion and see anything you shouldn't, I'll gouge your eyes out!"
Gu Jiu's body trembled violently.
His guess was right; Third Master really wanted to gouge out his eyes!
...
Lin Chuxia sat and studied for a whole morning and afternoon, and her waist felt a little tired.
She rolled the yoga ball out of the cabinet, then lay down on it, gently pushing off the ground with her feet, letting the yoga ball roll back and forth, massaging her lower back.
However, when she tilted her head back, she was caught off guard to see Gu Yuheng standing at her door with a gloomy face and a pair of sinister and frightening eyes.
She was startled and tumbled off the yoga ball, landing face down on the ground.
Lin Chuxia exclaimed "Ouch!" and was about to question Gu Yuheng about why he had suddenly come to scare her, but before she could speak, Gu Yuheng said in a deep, cold voice:
"Shameless!"
Gu Yuheng's eyes burned with raging anger. Who was she trying to seduce with that pose? Who was she trying to seduce?!
Lin Chuxia, who had just gotten up from the ground, immediately became furious upon hearing his accusation: "Are you sick? You came here on your own, and you're blaming me? Do you think I wanted you to see this? I'm the one who lost out!"
Upon hearing her words, the anger in Gu Yuheng's eyes intensified.
If she doesn't want to show it to him, then who does she want to show it to?
For Gu Jiu? Or for another man?
Lin Chuxia was startled by the anger in his eyes. She took a step back without realizing it and fell onto the bed behind her. But then she thought about it and realized that she was the one who was wronged. What was wrong with her exercising in her own room?
Why is he angry? She's the one who should be angry, okay?
As she thought about it, Lin Chuxia's eyes welled up with tears, and she looked extremely depressed.
Her misty eyes and slightly aggrieved expression calmed Gu Yuheng down a little.
He tried to calm the anger in his chest, but the thought that Gu Jiu had witnessed this scene just now made it impossible for him to quell his anger.
His gaze shifted from her stubborn and aloof face to the half-person-tall beige teddy bear behind her, and the raging anger in his chest transformed into a strong sour feeling.
This teddy bear...
