The secretary listened in extreme surprise, thinking he must have misheard.

Mr. Black, a legendary figure indeed! Yet, he dares not provoke Xiao San Ye? Furthermore, this was the first time someone dared to stand Mr. Black up even making him wait for a full ten hours.

Midway up the hill, the Xiao Family Pavilion.

Xiao Mohan carried a bag and rushed upstairs, slamming the door shut with a

bang.

He returned to his room, began studying a map, and then picked her up.

“Hiss.” Xiao Mohan frowned deeply.

He could never have dreamt that his life would come to this.

A trivial matter had somehow occupied him for half an hour!

Xiao Mohan turned around and strode into the bathroom to take a cold shower.

“Hello.” His phone rang at this moment. Xiao Mohan walked over to answer, “Understood.”

He hung up the phone and went to his computer. He reached out, opened it up, and looked at an email.

His finger slid over to another email, and he replied with one word: “Approved.”

In the early morning, when Xiao Mohan woke, he suddenly thought of what the salesperson had said at the supermarket the night before: change every four hours. It was already six o’clock.

“Gu Chuyan, I…” he began, a bit embarrassed.

Although he considered himself a gentleman, he felt somewhat guilty. “Xiao Mohan.” Suddenly, an abrupt voice sounded from the bedroom; hoarse but not male.

His hand froze, and he felt apprehended as if caught in mischief!

Xiao Mohan raised his head and locked eyes with her clear apricot orbs. His heart skipped a beat, his face was inexplicably flushed, he quickly averted his gaze.

“You’re awake?” Xiao Mohan said, like a schoolboy caught in mischief.

He stood there, trying to find a place to rest his hands, extremely embarrassed. Gu Chuyan just looked at him, silent, and watched him quiet and detached. “Fever subsided? I’ll call the doctor.” Xiao Mohan reached out and touched her forehead, embarrassed.

Now, he felt the need to escape from this awkwardness!

Even though he was fearless against anything, yet at this moment, he felt guilty and embarrassed! Without waiting for her to speak, he turned around and strode away.

Watching him walk away, Gu Chuyan tried to rise with great effort and headed towards the bathroom.

“Oh, it’s that time of the month?” She went to the restroom and discovered.

Just now she had initially misunderstood, but soon realized what was happening. Gu Chuyan’s face turned red.

Thinking about this, she momentarily lost focus, unbalanced, she fell to the floor.

“Ah.” She fell on the floor, tumbling down!

Upon hearing the noise, Xiao Mohan pushed open the bathroom door and rushed in. Seeing her fallen, he quickly lifted her up and carried her out.

Wen Shui stood there, turning his head around, his gaze lingering on the two in deep meaning.

“Ahem. I wanted to check on how her fever was doing.” He said, walked in, without revealing their secret, was just slightly embarrassed.

Gu Chuyan had some porridge and was lying on the bed; she was thirsty and tried to reach for a glass of water, but her hand couldn’t gather the strength to lift it.

“Clang” The cup fell to the floor.

Hearing the noise, Xiao Mohan turned his head and saw her staring at her hand, lost in thought.

“How are you?” He walked over, thinking she had injured her hand. He cradled it and checked but found no burns, only old wounds.

She looked at her own hand, asked bitterly, “Xiao Mohan, is my hand finished?”

Why was she incapable of exerting any strength? As if…she couldn’t grasp anything firmly.

“No.” He wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen..
