“Master.” Han Changqing noticed his paused steps as if he still had something more to do.
“Aqing, you go…” Xiao Mohan lowered his head and whispered something to Han Changqing, his deep, silent eves flashing with coldness.
Han Changqing listened with a smirk on his face and replied: “Yes.”
Gu Miaoting attempted to escape, stepping back half a step, and wincing in pain. People started approaching her and dragged her onwards.
Gu Miaoting stumbled forward towards the hospital entrance where festive drums were being incessantly played.
“Thump, thump, thump.” Her stomach was making loud noises, and she was frequently passing gas. Her stomach was in so much pain, it felt like she might have diarrhea.
Her memory flashed back; what they had forced her to eat earlier… could it have been croton seeds? The thought made her break out in cold sweat. Struggling to make it to the restroom, a crowd had already started gathering, excited for the spectacle.
“Crackle, crackle crackle.” Fireworks started going off incessantly!
She scampered around. Unfortunately, the fireworks were attached to her, exploding next to her.
She almost started crying, feeling woozy. She wasn’t feeling well at all.
She then tumbled violently onto the ground, her face buried in the mud.
Gu Miaoting stood up again, her hand covering her face.
Within a black car not far from the hospital, a man with an irresistibly handsome face was watching the scene from the window with a faint smile.
“Master.” Han Changqing turned around and got into the car, greeting Xiao Mohan.
“Mm.”
“Take these photos into your possession.” Han Changqing said gravely, handing him an iPad, and wiping his hands subconsciously, afraid Gu Miaoting had tainted them.
Xiao Mohan took the iPad and casually browsed the photos, adding:
“Tomorrow morning, all news headlines will feature her.”
“Master, what should be the headline?” Han Changqing asked, starting the car and driving up the hillside.
“Wannabe celebrity steals headlines! Tarnishes others’ image.” Xiao Mohan uttered after a few seconds of silence. His cold smirk and overall charismatic presence made his deep black eyes seem bottomless and overwhelming.
“Master, that’s an excellent move! Those celebrities that she dragged into this will surely want to meet her.” Han Changqing commented, his handsome eyes narrowing slightly in excitement.
“We can’t let people consume her entirely. Her life is still owed to Gu Chuyan.” Said Xiao Mohan sternly. If Chuyan wants Miaoting to live, then she will live. If Chuyan wants her dead, she has no choice but to obey.
“Yes, Master!” As Han Changqing complied, he began to understand how vital Gu Chuyan was to Xiao Mohan. Chuyan was his life!
He would pay any price to bring her some comfort, even if it meant… Han Changqing didn’t dare continue that thought! Could the Master be actually falling in love?
At the Gu Mansion,
Because the doctor’s equipment was broken, he had to be discharged and recuperate at home. And not 24 hours had passed when something went wrong. It felt like adding insult to injury.
“What? The Art Academy was vandalized?” Gu Yan roared, nearly jumping up in surprise!
Unfortunately, due to his broken leg, he couldn’t jump. He had no choice but to sit on the sofa, repeatedly banging the armrest.
“Yes! All the equipment has been destroyed! The students need to attend classes, so…they’ve jointly requested that you take charge and ensure everything is back to normal within a week.” The manager said respectfully. Gu Yan’s face fell at the news.
“How much was damaged? And who is responsible for this?” Gu Yan, who cared about his image, felt he had completely lost face these past couple of days. “Mr. Gu, if we do not handle this mess properly, it may harm your reputation.”
Gu Yan was clearly aware of the seriousness of the situation but pay from his own pocket? First and foremost, he had no idea who was behind all this!
