Chapter 139: Chapter 139: Do You Want Me to Carry You Inside?
“There’s a bit of bruising on the right side.”
“Press it again, see if it hurts.”
As instructed, Qin Sijue stretched out his slender fingers and pressed on her stomach.
Then he looked up at her, “Does it hurt?”
Gu Qiangwei was aware that she was not wearing underwear at this moment; being touched by him like this felt very unnatural.
She took his hand away and let her top fall back down, “I told you, it’s nothing—I’m not hurting anymore.”
She deliberately avoided it, how could Qin Sijue not notice?
“Are you sure?”
“Mhm.” She kept a calm expression.
Being kicked indeed hurt very much at the time, but now, aside from a faint bit of pain, there didn’t seem to be much feeling—she should be fine.
“In that case, I’ll get you some medicine later, just apply it once after your bath every day, and when the bruise fades, you’ll be fine.” Li Yuan also spoke from the side.
He felt that coming here was just masochistic! It seemed he really needed to find a woman soon!
After Li Yuan left, in a short while, Luo Chen brought her clothes over from Shen Mochen’s apartment.
Looking at the familiar suitcase, Gu Qiangwei was surprised.
He had actually let someone go to Mochen’s apartment and brought all her luggage here.
Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but remember Shen Mochen, who should still be waiting for her at the celebration event at this hour.
With that thought, she turned around looking for her phone, then remembered that her mobile and purse had fallen long ago.
“Achoo!”
A sneeze rang out, and Qin Sijue’s gaze darkened as he stood up.
“Go take a bath.”
Gu Qiangwei looked up at him.
If she had decided to leave, how could she possibly bathe here?
“No need, I’ll go back and wash up.”
With that said, she tried to throw off the covers and get out of bed.
As her feet were about to touch the ground, the next instant she felt a shadow loom overhead.
Looking up, she saw the man in front of her suddenly close in, his dangerous face coming near hers.
His warm breath hit her face, making Gu Qiangwei instinctively shrink back.
“Do you want me to carry you there?”
“…You’re impossible to reason with!”
“So, are you going to wash or not?”
“I—Achoo!”
Seeing her sneeze one after another, Qin Sijue’s eyes darkened, and the next second he had reached out, picked her up horizontally, and turned towards the bathroom.
Gu Qiangwei was in a panic, struggling, “Qin Sijue, put me down!”
Ignoring her struggles, Qin Sijue’s lips slightly curved up, carrying her straight to the bathroom.
The servants had already prepared the hot water, and the entire bathroom was filled with a layer of steam.
“Qin Sijue!”
“Keep it down or I’ll help you wash myself.”
His dangerously alluring voice reached her, asserting boundless dominance, and instinctively, Gu Qiangwei fell silent.
She definitely didn’t want him to help her with the bath!
It wasn’t until she calmed down completely that Qin Sijue carried her to the bathtub edge and gently placed her into the steaming warm water.
“The clothes!”
Seeing her delicate, handmade shirt soaked in the bathtub, Gu Qiangwei cried out without thinking.
“It’s just a shirt, it’s fine.”
She looked up at the man, his handsome features obscured by the mist but still visibly sharp and defined.
“Can you manage on your own?” He asked after putting her down, looking at her with concern.
“I can!”
She looked away, not looking at him anymore.
Being carried in like this left her with no room to resist; she might as well just finish her bath and deal with it afterward.
Actually, she had been feeling increasingly cold from the moment she was carried in, and the second she submerged in the warm water, it was as if all the fatigue was stripped away from her body, becoming instantly comfortable, to the point where she found herself growing fond of the bathtub’s warm water.
