Very soon, Gu Chenan had finished giving Hoshino Kannon a full body acupuncture treatment.
He then tucked her in gently and quietly closed the door behind him.
"Young Master Gu, who is this girl?" Bai Yutian asked curiously.
Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow and said, "What's the matter, are you jealous that I brought a girl home?"
Bai Yutian pouted, "No!"
"You're just pretending," Gu Chenan laughed.
At that moment, Gu Chenan's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that the caller was Liu Hong.
"Master Liu, have you made up your mind?" Gu Chenan said after answering the call.
Liu Hong hesitated, "Young Master Gu, if I cancel the assassination contract on Patriarch Xiao, you'll keep this a secret for me, right?"
"Heh."
Gu Chenan chuckled, "Didn't I tell you before? I'm not negotiating with you, I'm threatening you."
"Tell me," Gu Chenan continued, "Oh, that's right, just now, the Black Falcon assassins came and not only killed many of the Xiao family members, but also killed quite a few people from the martial arts circles in Suhang."
"Now you should carefully consider, if I reveal that you are the mastermind behind all this to the whole city of Suhang, what will happen to your Liu family?" Gu Chenan's tone was casual, but his words carried an unmistakable threat.
"Gulp~"
Liu Hong swallowed hard, pondered for a moment, then nodded heavily, "I understand, I'll cancel the contract immediately!"
"A wise man," Gu Chenan praised.
"Young Master Gu, I'll be back in Suhang in a few days, would you like to have a meal with me then?" Liu Hong tentatively asked.
"No problem."
After hanging up, Gu Chenan let out a long breath of relief.
If Liu Hong really canceled the contract, then the Black Falcon would have no reason to continue trying to assassinate Xiao Jian.
This way, the Xiao family, the largest clan in Suhang, would be preserved!
Moreover, the words of gratitude that Xiao Jian said to Gu Chenan as he left today were full of sincerity.
From now on, the Xiao family of Suhang would undoubtedly become one of Gu Chenan's most loyal followers.
As for the Liu family, whose strength is inferior to the Xiao family, they were already in Gu Chenan's grasp, so they could also serve him in the future.
Once Gu Chenan eliminated the Li family led by Li Rufeng, there would be no more forces in Suhang that could be absorbed by Lin Yu!
Even if there were any left, they would only be small fries, completely incapable of rivaling Gu Chenan!
Gu Chenan put the acupuncture box back in its place, poured a cup of hot water, and brought it into the room.
After Gu Chenan's acupuncture treatment, Hoshino Kannon gradually regained consciousness and smiled faintly at him.
"Would you like some water?" Gu Chenan asked as he sat down on the bed.
Hoshino Kannon shook her head and slowly uttered a few words, "Want... to pee."
Gu Chenan: Σ(°△°|||)︴
[Damn it, why don't you just say you want to go to the bathroom?]
[Still want to pee? Do you think you're a child?]
Gu Chenan said with some embarrassment, "Do you want to go here, or should I help you to the bathroom?"
Hoshino Kannon thought for a moment and said, "Go... to the bathroom."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chenan stood up, took one of his white shirts from the closet, and said, "Put this on first."
Put on clothes?
Hoshino Kannon was a little puzzled, then gently lifted the blanket to take a look.
"You took them off?" She raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah," Gu Chenan nodded, "I was giving you acupuncture, nothing else."
The corners of Hoshino Kannon's mouth curved up slightly, and a hint of mischief appeared in her eyes, "Was it sexy? Did it give you any ideas?"
Gu Chenan rolled his eyes.
[What the hell is up with this Hoshino Kannon?]
[How dare she tease me as soon as she wakes up?]
[This woman is really not well-behaved!]
"Can you stop treating me like a pervert?" Gu Chenan threw the white shirt at Hoshino Kannon, "Put on some clothes, I'll help you to the bathroom to pee!"
Hoshino Kannon took the white shirt, held it to her nose, and took a deep breath, "So this is Young Master Gu's scent, so manly."
"Don't talk about manly scents, this shirt has been washed, that's just the smell of laundry detergent!" Gu Chenan said impatiently, "Hurry up and put it on."
"But I'm injured, I can't put it on~" Hoshino Kannon said coyly as she revealed her wounded shoulder.
"Alright, wait a moment," Gu Chenan got up.
"What are you going to do?" Hoshino Kannon asked curiously.
"Get a girl to come and help you put it on?"
"No!" Hoshino Kannon immediately shook her head, "Just let you do it, otherwise I'll pee on your bed!"
[You damn...]
Gu Chenan gritted his teeth, turned around, picked up the white shirt, and helped Hoshino Kannon put it on.
Soon, Gu Chenan had Hoshino Kannon dressed in his white shirt, exposing her long, beautiful legs.
He carried her in a princess hold into the bathroom.
After setting Hoshino Kannon down on the toilet, Gu Chenan turned and said, "Alright, call me when you're done."
With that, he closed the bathroom door and left.
Soon, Hoshino Kannon's voice came from the bathroom, "Come in for a moment."
Gu Chenan pushed open the door, "Are you finished?"
"No," Hoshino Kannon held a few tissues in her hand, "I don't have enough strength, I can't wipe."
"Huh?" Gu Chenan was stunned.
[You want me to come in and wipe for you?]
[Damn, isn't that a bit too shocking?]
Seeing Gu Chenan's inner thoughts, Hoshino Kannon pursed her lips and smiled secretly, "Hurry up, it's getting cold."
Gu Chenan swallowed hard and took the tissues.
"Don't move."
...
Soon, Gu Chenan had carried Hoshino Kannon out of the bathroom in a princess hold once again.
After lying back down on the bed, Hoshino Kannon took a deep breath of the sheets and pillows.
"These sheets haven't been washed recently, right? They smell really nice."
Gu Chenan shrugged, "As long as you're happy."
"Oh right, where will you be staying tonight?" Hoshino Kannon suddenly asked.
Gu Chenan thought for a moment, "There are many places I could stay, but you should just rest comfortably in my room."
Hoshino Kannon stretched out her little feet and lightly kicked Gu Chenan's leg, "Consider sleeping with me tonight?"
Gu Chenan firmly refused, "No, you should focus on recovering from your injuries."
[You want to sleep with me when you're still injured?]
[Aren't you afraid that I might lose control and take advantage of you in your weakened state at night?]
[Although, come to think of it, Hoshino Kannon does have a nice figure, those breasts, those legs, that fair skin...]
[Since she seems so eager to sleep with me, maybe we can revisit that idea after she recovers.]
Gu Chenan's inner thoughts appeared, and Hoshino Kannon was stunned as she listened.
However, after hearing Gu Chenan's last remark about revisiting the idea after she recovered, Hoshino Kannon's heart filled with joy.
She nodded heavily, "Alright, I'll focus on recovering first. At most one month, no, half a month and I'll be healed!"
"Half a month?" Gu Chenan glanced at her, "You think you have superpowers or something?"
"I do!" Hoshino Kannon nodded firmly.
Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow, "What superpower?"
"My superpower is..." Hoshino Kannon hesitated for a moment, then suddenly crawled out of the bed, gave Gu Chenan a bear hug and a kiss, and said, "I super like you!"
