Song Qingli gulped. Was this the look of him wanting to eat her up?
The sky gradually brightened and the spring breeze blew through the window. The young girl's shoulder straps were loose and her long hair was a mess. She knelt on the bed for no reason and looked at Gu Zechuan faintly.
His cold, domineering aura, while he was still lying down, was really shocking.
He clearly was the one at fault but now, it looked like she was the one who made a mistake.
Then, the man spread out his large palm but she had no idea what he meant.
The young girl's eyes turned. She looked at the man's cold face and then at the man's open palm. She tilted her head. What did this mean? Do you want the dog to stretch out its paw?
Song Qingli was so frightened by Gu Zechuan's sharp gaze that she quickly put her hand on it. She guessed that Gu Zechuan was going to ask, 'which hand did you slap me with?'
"I'm sorry. I really am, hubby. Please don't break my hand …" The young girl pouted, tears falling as she spoke, "It was just my reflex. I didn't do it on purpose... Huhuhu..."
Gu Zechuan gritted his molars. He clutched the girl's soft hands in his hands. His chest felt like a furnace that was burning with rage but he suppressed his anger and said gently, "Your hand is injured, why are you moving it around?"
◑﹏◐
Something was wrong with him! Song Qingli felt that there was definitely something wrong with him.
The young girl's eyes, which were like a vixen, were crystal clear as she squinted to look at Gu Zechuan's expression. There were only the two of them in the room and he still had to put on an act?
Strange. It was really strange.
Song Qingli wanted to pull back her hand but she failed. Instead, she was pulled into a strong, masculine hug.
Her cherry lips knocked against the man's chest and there was a red mark left on his chest because of her teeth.
Gu Zechuan's black eyes swept across the girl's face. In that instant, she turned red like a ripe fruit. Her eyes were flustered and she felt lost. She wanted to escape but her wrists were being held by the man and she was kneeling on the bed uneasily.
Looking at her now, she really looked like she was about to cry.
"So, Qingli is just someone who knows how to talk but when it comes to the actual fight, you are as cowardly as a little kitten." The man lowered his eyes to look at the teeth marks on his chest. They were neither deep nor shallow but they were slightly red. The soft touch from before was quite unforgettable.
"I didn't expect Mr. Gu to still be so dishonest even though you're already in this state." Song Qingli didn't think it through when she said that but she was forced into a corner. She never liked to talk about other people's flaws. So, she gritted her teeth in regret the moment she blurted it out.
Gu Zechuan no longer found it funny. He let go of the girl's hand and closed his eyes. "Get out."

The sun hung high in the sky above the treetops. The white clouds occasionally covered the sun, leaving a shadow on the ground that moved with it.
Xu Hao was very efficient. He walked in early in the morning with a document in his hand. His injury had almost completely recovered. Other than the fact that he could not walk very smoothly, everything else was normal.
"Second young master, we've secured Hotel Shenghua. This is the contract. Please have a look." The reason why Xu Hao had rushed here was that he had booked the hotel and also he didn't know how the night was for both Miss Song and the second young master.
Gu Zechuan sat in his wheelchair with a cold expression on his face. It looked worse compared to the day before. He didn't open his eyes but answered, "It's not a big deal that we got it. I won't be looking at it now."
"Uh, also, the things that you wanted to know about Miss Song. You ... Are you still going to look at it?" Xu Hao gauged the situation in front of him. It was most likely that they didn't have a peaceful night and that something big had happened again.
He regretted it. He should have asked Uncle Jin before coming to the second young master.
The man raised his eyes and glanced at the information Xu Hao handed over. His eyes were cold. "Burn it."
"Huh?"
"Tear it apart and burn it piece by piece."
"I ... I understand." Xu Hao tried his best to open his eyes. The dark circles under his eyes were extremely eye-catching. He put away the documents with tears in his eyes. How could he burn the documents that he had worked hard on all night?
He returned to the front hall and saw Uncle Jin's worried face.
"Uncle Jin, what happened last night?"
"Oh my! Xu Hao, quickly think of something! This ... When we woke up this morning, one of them locked herself in her room and refused to eat while the other sat in the backyard and refused to be disturbed. It's almost 10 o'clock now but none of them have had breakfast yet."
Xu Hao shrugged his shoulders. As expected, something must have happened last night. Otherwise, why would the second young master burn the information about Miss Song today when he had just asked for them to be prepared last night?
"Uncle Jin, take this. I'm going to check on Miss Song." Xu Hao raised his eyebrows and went upstairs. As far as he knew, this was the first time the second young master had asked him to look things up on a woman.
In such a short period of time, his attitude had changed completely.
There must be a demon behind this abnormal situation.
Xu Hao didn't see Song Qingli when he went upstairs even when he had already taken a good look around. Uncle Jin clearly said that she was upstairs.
He pushed open the glass door of the balcony. Suddenly, a beautiful figure rushed up to him and grabbed his arm.
"...." Xu Hao was dumbfounded.
"Young master, what took you so long?" Song Qingli's expression at that moment was a little coy as if the person who had just arrived was her lover and her voice could simply melt a person.
Xu Hao's lips trembled. Just as he was about to explain, Song Qingli pressed her index finger against his lips and said softly, "Shush! Don't make a sound. The old master is still at home. If he finds out about our affair, I'm afraid he'll throw us into the lake."
"You haven't been here for a week. Do you know how much I've missed you?"
"....."
Xu Hao's face was ashen and his neck was stiff. He saw the mobile phone placed two meters away as if it was recording something. If the second young master sees this, forget about being thrown into the lake, his head would be twisted off and used as a stool for the young master to sit on.
"Young master, do you still have feelings for me?" Song Qingli turned from left to right, looking at him with a sticky gaze like a water snake.
Xu Hao felt cold sweat all over his body and he felt a strong sense of being watched from behind. Every time he opened his mouth, Miss Song would interrupt him. He wanted to pull his hand away but Miss Song held it tightly.
Song Qingli was almost done with her performance when a man's voice suddenly rang out from behind her. It was like a loud bell that echoed in the room for a long time. "What are you two doing?"
Xu Hao trembled and his teeth were chattering. He turned his head to look at the second young master, who looked stiff as he gritted his teeth.
"Second... Second young master."
"Ahhhhh!" Why did he have to make a sound?
Song Qingli yelled. It was time to complete the task Li Zhen had given her but she had only managed to reenact the climax of the first movie after dawdling for a long time. Everything had been going smoothly from the start but at the critical moment ...
The warm sun dispelled the thick fog in the mountains and the ancient castle appeared before their eyes.
The sun shone through the window and happened to shine on Xu Hao's cramped feet. His palms were slightly clenched and covered in sweat. His throat was dry as he lowered his head.
Gu Zechuan looked at him with his dark eyes. It was spring but Xu Hao felt cold as he shivered.
"Second master, it's not what you think."
"What should I be thinking?" The man's voice was calm but it sounded unusual to Xu Hao. He can't help but feel that his legs turn weak.
