Chapter 192: Chapter 125 Goodnight!

What does he want to do? Be impolite to her?

Gu Xiaoxi blinked her innocent, wide eyes, too terrified to move, and leaned on Quan Shaoqing.

"Keeper, holding me like this. You are already being quite impolite!" Gu Xiaoxi’s face flushed red, her peripheral vision focused on Quan Shaoqing, her gaze flickering uncertainly.

The man didn’t move at all, but instead huffed coldly, his breath gradually closing in on her face as he looked down.

"Oh? Is that so? Compared to the filthy things others have taught you, is it still not impolite?" Quan Shaoqing’s fair cheeks also flushed with redness.

His face was getting closer and closer to hers.

His hot breath, carrying a distinct masculinity, covered her face, causing Gu Xiaoxi’s breath to catch, and in an instant, every cell in her body became exceedingly stiff.

She blinked her panicked eyes, stuttering, "Keeper, what... what are you talking about? You are too close to me, I’m uncomfortable. Let me go!"

"Let you go!" Quan Shaoqing huffed coldly, his lips slightly curved in a sinister and unbridled manner, "It seems that I’ve been too presumptuous with you. Becoming less and less obedient, learning bad things from Yeh Bai—he is, after all, a man. And Yi Chentian, which part of him do you like? Tell me, and if you make a good case, I’ll let you go. If not, you’ll see how I deal with you."

Gu Xiaoxi shrank her neck, trying her best to ignore the panic his breath caused, and hurriedly explained, "Yeh Bai sent those messages, I had no idea. Before that, I never opened them. Didn’t you notice? Also, Yi Chentian, I... I... I..."

"You what..." Quan Shaoqing’s heart suddenly leaped to his throat. If she dared to like that guy... At that thought, a sourness surged within him, and his lips turned pale with anger.

Seeing his frightening expression, Gu Xiaoxi quickly clarified, "I ran into him today, but I made it clear to him. I don’t like him anymore."

"Really?" Quan Shaoqing stared into Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes, and seeing that she didn’t appear to be lying, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Really, I swear. I really don’t like Yi Chentian." Gu Xiaoxi blinked her large eyes, eagerly assuring him.

Upon hearing her words, Quan Shaoqing felt a bit better and released her wrists.

Gu Xiaoxi shook her wrists, noticing some red marks on her skin, and couldn’t help feeling annoyed. Quan Shaoqing was sticking his nose where it didn’t belong.

Who she liked was none of his business, wasn’t it?

The guardian was always meddling, which was so annoying.

When Quan Shaoqing saw her pouting lips, he reached out and gently pinched her nose, "Don’t be angry, I’m doing this for your own good. You’re still young, what if someone deceives you?"

"Yes, I’m young. But I can still distinguish between good people and bad ones. As for you..." you don’t seem like a good person.

Gu Xiaoxi didn’t finish her sentence, as a glance from Quan Shaoqing frightened her, and she swallowed the rest of her words.

At that moment, Quan Shaoqing’s gaze was cold and daunting.

Gu Xiaoxi shivered, finding it too terrifying, like a big gray wolf ready to pounce and devour her.

Outside, it had already turned pitch black. Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxi sprang up from Quan Shaoqing’s arms, her heart indescribably flustered with anger, yet this feeling wasn’t entirely unpleasant.

Quan Shaoqing looked at her guarded appearance, then crossed his legs and folded his arms, pretending to be nonchalant as he said, "Finish what you were saying, how do you see me?"

"I think you’re very handsome. In this lifetime, if there’s no one more handsome than you, I’ll never marry!" Gu Xiaoxi promptly changed the subject, having narrowly escaped the tiger’s den; she wouldn’t be foolish enough to provoke him again.

Quan Shaoqing’s lips slightly lifted as he looked up at Gu Xiaoxi indifferently, "Someone as handsome as me is one in a million, there’s probably no one more handsome."

Gu Xiaoxi laughed haughtily! She turned to look out the window where the moonlight was shining on the windowsill, illuminating the ground bright as rice porridge.

Such a narcissistic guy.

Quan Shaoqing picked up Gu Xiaoxi’s phone, deleted Yeh Bai’s messages, and directly added Yi Chentian to the blacklist.

Only then did he contentedly toss her phone on the sofa.

Gu Xiaoxi rolled her eyes, speechless.

This Quan Shaoqing, was domineering and peculiar, but not entirely unlikable.

At least, he hadn’t blacklisted Yeh Bai. This meant that he actually agreed with her making friends, but why was he so opposed to her and Yi Chentian?

Could it be simply because Yi Chentian had once been with her, and since Yi Chentian had failed his test, he thought Yi Chentian was not a good person and therefore particularly opposed to him?

Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxi felt her mind was in chaos. She rubbed her hair, grabbed her cell phone, turned around, and left, "I’m going to sleep."

Quan Shaoqing watched her retreating figure, his gaze gradually deepening.

The truth was, he had never been in a relationship either.

He believed that to like someone was to protect her.

To think of what’s best for her, to consider her well-being.

Now that she was right in front of him, he actually didn’t know how to treater her right to make her accept him.

"Xiao Xi!"

Just as Gu Xiaoxi was about to step into her room, Quan Shaoqing called out to her.

Gu Xiaoxi paused in her tracks and turned to look at him, "Is there anything else?"

She stood slightly to the side, her sparkling eyes as vast and beautiful as the starry sky.

Quan Shaoqing got up, walked over to her, and gently pinched her cheek, saying leisurely, "Good night!"

Gu Xiaoxi’s cheeks grew hot, feeling the place he had touched grow hotter and hotter.

In her fluster, she turned around, murmured "Good night" to him with her head down, and then scurried away.

The door slammed shut, and Quan Shaoqing stood at the doorway with a light smile on his face. When would he be able to kiss her forehead and then tell her good night?

Perhaps that day would come soon.

A smile spread across Quan Shaoqing’s eyes, but suddenly, his body shuddered, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest, making him break out in a cold sweat.

But it was only momentary, and afterward, he was unharmed.

Quan Shaoqing returned to his room and then dialed Ai Xiang’s number.

Gu Xiaoxi lay in bed, tossing and turning, her heart and mind filled with Quan Shaoqing’s image, his hot breath and his cold face.

It was as if she had been bewitched; as soon as she closed her eyes, she was harassed by Quan Shaoqing’s images.

Damn it, she was suffering from insomnia.

In the end, she couldn’t sleep. She picked up her phone and sent a message to Yeh Bai.

[You’ve ruined me!]

Soon, Yeh Bai replied, [I’m sorry, everything today was my fault. Even though I didn’t succeed in confessing my feelings, I will still take a leave to accompany you to the Gu Family.]

Gu Xiaoxi sneered, thinking that was more like it. [You said it yourself, you have to come with me to the Gu Family in four days. The reason you’ve ruined me is because of that video, Quan Shaoqing found out.]

[Oh man, Gu Xiaoxi, you are the one who’s killed me.]

[Why?] Gu Xiaoxi was puzzled.

Before Yeh Bai could reply, Quan Shaoqing’s call came through.

Yeh Bai was so startled his hand trembled, nearly dropping the phone.

Gu Xiaoxi was initially puzzled, but as she listened carefully, she realized that Quan Shaoqing’s voice was coming through the wall.

"Yeh Bai, have you been very idle lately? If so, it just so happens that the Peacekeeping Troops need a doctor. If you were to be dispatched there, I believe everyone would be very happy. After all, you perform surgery very well," Quan Shaoqing said in a cool tone, his words carrying an undertone of threat.
