Chapter 41 If it doesn’t work, just wait!
She hurried after him, her voice full of studied concern.
"Brother Yanbai, let me handle this little thing."
"She is no longer the eldest daughter she used to be. You don't have to serve her so carefully."
Lin Qing's eyes swept across Gu Miaomiao's pale face meaningfully.
"Instead, she got herself drunk when she should have been taking care of you. How irresponsible of her."
With the help of the support, Gu Miaomiao managed to stand steadily.
Her chaotic consciousness cleared up a little, and she raised her hand to press her throbbing solar plexus.
"I can do it myself."
"No one needs it!"
The smile on Lin Qing's face remained unchanged, but a hint of viciousness flashed across his eyes.
He reached out his hand very quickly and pulled Gu Miaomiao's arm directly from Jiang Yanbai's hand.
"How can you be so stubborn, young lady? I know you don't like others touching your body."
She feigned concern.
"But you're so drunk, what if you pass out in the bathroom? Let me do it."
Before she finished speaking, she grabbed the inside of Gu Miaomiao's arm.
A sharp pain came over her, and Gu Miaomiao gasped in pain, pursing her lips tightly.
She frowned and moved her arms slightly, but was unable to break free from the iron-like shackles.
Lin Qing still smiled gently, but the strength of her smile had not diminished at all.
Then, Lin Qing looked up at Jiang Yanbai, with a hint of shyness in her smile.
"Brother Yanbai, as a man, you should not stay here."
"I'll just serve the young lady. I'm used to serving her anyway."
She lowered her eyes slightly, sighed softly, and looked like she was working hard without complaint.
Jiang Yanbai's deep gaze paused on her face for a moment.
Lin Qing added with pretended strength.
"It doesn't matter if I do these things, as long as the young lady doesn't beat me."
Jiang Yanbai's eyes suddenly darkened.
Those humiliating scenes from the past, scenes of Gu Miaomiao beating and scolding him at every turn, flooded through his mind.
He reached out, grabbed Lin Qing's hand, and pulled her away from Gu Miaomiao.
His movements were somewhat rough, and Lin Qing staggered and almost lost his balance.
Gu Miaomiao's body also swayed due to losing support.
"That's what you said."
Jiang Yanbai's voice turned cold, without any warmth.
"She is not the original eldest daughter, why does she need people to serve her?"
He turned to Wang Ma who was standing beside him, and said in a tone that brooked no argument.
"Auntie Wang, you come out too. Let her wash herself."
"I really don't need anyone. I need to go back to my room!"
Gu Miaomiao snorted coldly, feeling somewhat sober, shook off Wang Ma's support, and rushed upstairs with unsteady steps.
The door slammed shut and locked.
Gu Miaomiao leaned against the door panel and took a few breaths, sweat oozing from her forehead, and suddenly she felt much more awake.
She stood up and took out the spare phone from under the bed.
The screen lit up, and a series of messages jumped into my eyes, all of them were questions.
"You said you'd ruin his reputation, so why haven't you started yet? Do you think the money I gave you isn't enough?"
If you feel the money is not enough, tell me how much you want.
Gu Miaomiao raised her hand and rubbed her brows, typing quickly in the input box.
[The higher you stand, the harder you fall. I have my own plans. Don't be too impatient. I know my limits.]
The other party paused for a long time, only showing that they were typing, and no more messages were sent.
It seems that he thinks what he said makes some sense.
She added another sentence.
【You also need to be able to keep calm first. 】
Then I waited for a reply.
【I see. 】
Throw the phone back under the bed.
She leaned on the edge of the bed and rested for a while, but found that she was not sleepy at all.
I simply washed up first, put on a facial mask, and then lay down in the middle of the bed in the bedroom.
My mobile phone lit up, and the homepage of the social platform was flooded with hot searches about Wu Yiran.
The girl in the photo has a delicate profile, and the actor is pinching her face to tease her. The ambiguous atmosphere between the two overflows the screen, and countless netizens are frantically commenting.
[I've never seen the actor so close to anyone outside of the film, could it really be his girlfriend?]
[How is that possible? This must be some promotional gimmick for a new drama! The actor has never been involved in any gossip since his debut.]
[But who is this woman? Why haven't I seen her before? She's definitely not just anyone, as she can hook up with the best actor.]
Gu Miaomiao put her phone on the pillow and said to herself, "This is just the beginning."
She stretched, stood up and washed her face. After a busy day, she lay down and fell asleep.
Jiang Yanbai, who was in the master bedroom on the other side, leaned against the head of the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
He should have fallen asleep long ago, but he had no desire to sleep tonight.
Suddenly, I felt more and more upset.
He suddenly stood up from the bed and strode towards the next room.
I grabbed the cold doorknob and twisted it hard. It didn't budge.
It was locked from the inside!
Good, very good!
Jiang Yanbai, enraged, raised his hand and slammed it hard on the door.
Bang bang bang!
"Gu Miaomiao! Open the door!"
In the room, Gu Miaomiao was awakened by the loud sound of banging on the door. With sleepy eyes half closed, she threw off the quilt and got out of bed.
He walked to the door in his slippers and opened the lock reluctantly.
As soon as the door opened a crack, Jiang Yanbai's tall figure rushed in.
Gu Miaomiao was forced to take a step back by the cold aura on him.
Jiang Yanbai's eyes darkened, but he moved closer step by step.
Gu Miaomiao lost her balance and fell backwards, landing on the soft big bed.
She raised her eyes, her almond-shaped eyes filled with annoyance at having her sweet dream disturbed.
"Shouldn't you take medicine?"
Jiang Yanbai's tall figure loomed over her, his hands on either side of her body, trapping her between himself and the bed.
He leaned over, his hot breath spraying on her face, and spoke word by word.
"I can't sleep, and neither can you."
"Get up and go work overtime!"
There is no point in arguing with a mad dog who has lost his mind.
It will only waste your energy in vain.
She has more important things to do tomorrow.
Gu Miaomiao couldn't bear it any longer, so she rolled her eyes at him and yawned.
"Tomorrow is the Angel Wings launch event. If you don't go, I will."
"I can't work overtime anyway."
She reluctantly stood up, pushed his partition open, and walked slowly to the table.
Blocking his view with my body, I poured a glass of milk.
With a slight movement of his fingertips, a white pill fell into the milk.
She turned around with the cup of milk in her hand, a deliberately flattering smile on her face, and her voice was deliberately pinched.
"Boss Jiang, how about you try a glass of milk?"
Jiang Yanbai stared suspiciously at the cup of milk in her hand, then looked at her face which was full of fake smile.
In the end, he took it and drank it all in one gulp.
He handed the empty cup back to her, threatening with a thick nasal voice.
"If it doesn't work, just wait!"
Gu Miaomiao took the empty cup and casually placed it on the bedside table. She scratched her messy long hair in annoyance and spoke in a perfunctory tone.
"Just lie down first."
In order to prevent Jiang Yanbai from noticing anything unusual, Gu Miaomiao personally pulled the quilt over him.
He even reached out his hand and patted him gently on the shoulder, as if to coax a child.
"Go to sleep."
