Chapter 172: Chapter 173 Either ...

"Wait!" she blurted out in haste, "that... just throw it in the trash can."

She had sent him out to retrieve the hard drive from his pants, but how could this guy take the pants away?

Huangfu Jue stopped in his tracks, reached into his pocket to pull out the hard drive, and nonchalantly tossed the dirty pants into the trash can.

Watching him walk away, holding the hard drive between his fingers, she immediately jumped out of bed.

"That’s mine, you said you’d give it back if I danced with you!"

"Indeed!" The man turned around, his blue eyes inscrutable, "but you didn’t finish the dance with me."

She had pushed him away halfway through the dance, and then they had... indeed, they hadn’t finished that dance.

"You..." she seethed, grinding her teeth, "shameless!"

The man strode over to her, looked down at her with an imposing gaze, gripped her with both hands, and laid her back down on the bed,

"Dare to leave the bed again, and I promise, I’ll do something truly shameless!"

Was she an idiot?

Didn’t she have common sense that one shouldn’t move around with an injury?

Gan Yuan pursed her lips, rolled over, and turned her back to him.

He pulled the blanket over her and walked out the door, going straight to unlock the security door.

"Sir," Will stood outside holding a large paper bag, "here are the items you requested, including your phone."

Accepting the paper bag, Huangfu Jue’s voice was deep, "Go back and find out who that person is. Contact me if there’s any issue."

"This place... might not be very safe, right?" Will was a bit concerned.

"It’s fine," said Huangfu Jue.

"Alright, then." Will glanced inside the door, pursed his lips, and spoke softly, "Women are like that, they respond to tenderness, not force. Treat her kindly... "

The man’s eyebrows knotted, "I don’t need your advice!"

Will hurriedly stopped him, "Then I’ll be off. I’ll arrange for some people to stay nearby. Be careful, please."

After Will left, Huangfu Jue locked the door and returned to the master bedroom carrying the paper bag.

Hearing his footsteps, Gan Yuan immediately closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

He didn’t expose her pretense but simply took out the dinner he had asked Will to buy, and sat down at the bedside holding it in his hands.

He thought for a moment and then spoke gently,

"Come on, get up and eat something."

Come on?!

She instantly got goosebumps, "Huangfu Jue, can you not disgust me?"

Huangfu Jue frowned and stacked the bowl on the table, "Then get up and eat yourself!"

"Not hungry!"

She turned her back to him, curling up.

He was so annoyed that his chest heaved. She hadn’t eaten much dinner, and he had gone out of his way to have Will buy her a meal, yet she showed no appreciation and even ridiculed him.

Talk about responding to tenderness, not force, talk about needing to be coaxed... this damned woman was impervious to both.

Turning his head to look at Gan Yuan curled up under the blanket, he yanked it away in one swift movement.

"What are you doing?"

She turned toward him, gripping the blanket.

The man’s face was stern, his tone laced with restrained anger,

"You either eat, or I eat you, choose!"

Gan Yuan was speechless. Faced with the choice between eating and being eaten, she, in the end, chose to eat.

Sitting up, she extended her hand to reach for the bowl, but since she was a bit far away, her hand couldn’t reach it; she cautiously shuffled closer to the side of the bed.

Before she could reach out again, he already brought the bowl over, holding the bowl in one hand and scooping up porridge with a spoon with the other, bringing it to her mouth.

She kept her mouth closed and didn’t move.

After waiting a while and seeing no response from her, his brows furrowed with annoyance.

"Eat!"

She grew agitated, "How can I eat when it’s so hot?"

Trying to be considerate like others, but first you should at least have some basic sense, right?!
