100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 498: Enchanted by Beauty
Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Enchanted by Beauty
Upon seeing his savior arrive, Shen Letian’s eyes immediately lit up, "Little fox, you’ve finally come!"
As Shen Letian walked, he dragged along a little one who clung to him persistently.
"Bad guy, give Daddy back to Xiao Nian!" a little person said angrily, not any less imposing.
"Hey, hey! Look who’s here! Let go now!"
"Daddy is inside there?" Xiao Nian’s large eyes reflected the not-so-distant grove surrounding the other courtyard.
The frightening ghost house at night seemed like a beautiful fairy tale world in his eyes at this moment.
Gong Xiaoqiao: "Mhm."
Upon receiving a confirmed response from Mommy, the little one’s face immediately turned from anticipation and anxiety to joy and excitement; letting go of Mommy’s hand, he cheerily ran into the house.
At the entrance, two black-clothed bodyguards, not knowing what was happening, watched dumbfounded as a child yelling "Daddy" ran towards them.
Just as they were about to intercept, they saw Shen Letian’s gesture and calmly stepped aside.
Inside the house, the little one couldn’t wait for Mommy to lead him, and had already scampered from room to room in search.
"Daddy, Daddy! Xiao Nian has come to see you!"
"He’s probably in the study!" Shen Letian sat on the sofa and comfortably stretched his back, "This is killing me..."
Boss, I’ve brought your wife and kid! Now, you can finally take a break, right?
Could he not be in the house? It didn’t make sense that Xiao Nian was calling so loudly and yet he couldn’t hear...
Xiaoqiao walked doubtfully towards the direction of the study.
As long as there were outsiders, she would naturally enter "blind operation mode" as a conditioned reflex.
Xiaoqiao knocked several times with no response, so she went to the bedroom; finding it empty, she turned the doorknob and walked in.
"Gu Hangshen? Are you there?"
She looked around the room... No one was in the bedroom either. Could he be in the study?
"Where could he be..." Xiaoqiao murmured, about to leave when the bathroom door creaked open, and Gu Hangshen stood by the door, only a towel wrapped around his waist, leaning on a crutch.
The water droplets sensuously slid down his honey-toned skin. His hair had grown long from not being cut for a long time, with his bangs nearly covering most of his face, making him look less austere than usual, adding instead a touch of allure.
The sudden appearance of a beautiful man fresh from the bath left Xiaoqiao, rooted to the spot, at a loss for what to do. What surprised her even more was seeing that the bandage on Gu Hangshen’s face had already been removed, revealing the smooth skin restored beneath his hair.
All her doubts lasted but a few short seconds, and Xiaoqiao quickly regained her composure.
Indeed, he was supposed to remove the bandage tomorrow; she couldn’t have remembered it wrong. Why was it taken off early?
His hair obstructing her view and still pretending to be blind, Xiaoqiao grew more anxious and confused.
"Xiaoqiao? How did you come here?" Gu Hangshen looked at her in astonishment, subconsciously touching his own face, with a hint of panic in his eyes.
"Umm, I..."
Speaking like this in his present state was somewhat embarrassing. Gu Hangshen helped her sit on the bed, "I just finished bathing, let me get dressed first."
"Do you need my help?"
"No need, I can manage on my own. Just wait for me a bit, I’ll be quick."
"Oh..." Xiaoqiao reflexively answered, completely mesmerized by the beauty before her =.="
