“If you don’t shut up, I’ll do whatever you’re most afraid of!” Beiming Han’s grip on her arms abruptly tightened.
Gu Qingxin was scared so much her face turned pale. She didn’t dare move, the experience from yesterday was too horrifying and she didn’t want to go through it again.
Beiming Han carried Gu Qingxin out of the bedroom, only to encounter Huangfu Ye and Bai Jingqing standing at the door. Once they saw him come out, their eyes were constantly darting towards the girl in his embrace.
“Big Brother, you’re up early!”
Although Huangfu Ye saw Gu Qingxin’s face yesterday, he’d been too far away for a clear look. He was itching to get a closer look at her.
He was really curious about what kind of a girl could lead their always composed big brother to act so out of character.
“Big Brother, do you need help?” Bai Jingqing dares not be as brazen as Huangfu Ye, but his gaze kept drifting towards Beiming Han’s embrace.
Beiming Han, while holding Gu Qingxin, cleverly kept her hidden in his arms, keeping her out of sight from others.
His wolf-like icy gaze passed over the two of them and although his tone was indifferent, it carried an inexplicable deterrent power, “Are you idle?”
Both of them were startled and shook their heads in unison…
“We’re not, not idle, 1 have a ton of stuff to handle at the company.”
Huangfu Ye understood Beiming Han all too well, if he didn’t leave soon, he’d be in big trouble.
“I have surgeries scheduled at the hospital.” Bai Jingqing coughed lightly.
Both quickly made their escape.
With other people present, Gu Qingxin didn’t dare move, and she was afraid that others would see her looking so undignified. Therefore, she deliberately pressed her face against his chest.
It wasn’t until those two left, that she took a breath of relief and eased up. The pain in her body returned, the kind of pain that seemed to penetrate right into her bone marrow, and her tears started falling once again.
He looked down at the tiny figure in his arms, so soft and delicate, like a small kitten, constantly welling up with tears. He despised himself for putting her through this, enough to want to throw her back to bed and torment her some more.
Frowning slightly, he unconsciously quickened his pace.
Beiming Han brought Gu Qingxin into a bathroom, he placed her on a chair by the bathtub, and reached to open the covers wrapped around her.
“What are you doing? Get away, don’t touch me.” In her agitation, Gu Qingxin slapped Beiming Han’s face.
With a crisp ‘smack’, both of them froze for a moment. Gu Qingxin was so scared by her own actions that she anxiously looked at her hand.
“You!”
All Beiming Han felt was a surge of anger. Any woman he had been with would have done anything to please him, just to keep him around for a little while longer and to get him to look at them one more time.
It was only this brat who not only repeatedly rejected him but now even dared to hit him!
In his life, Beiming Han had never been hit by a woman before!
“I didn’t mean to do it, sob, 1 want to go home.” Gu Qingxin started crying again.
Beiming Han inhaled deeply. He was the one being hit, yet she was the one acting as if she was the victim.
With a great deal of effort, he resisted strangling her. Roughly lifting her, he walked quickly to the bathtub and dropped her into the water..
