Upon hearing this, Tang Yunjin did not respond, only smiled faintly and lowered her head.
"Is it too abrupt?"
Seeing that Tang Yunjin didn't react, Gu Chenan felt even more awkward.
Being rejected by a girl was already awkward enough, and adding to that the fact that Tang Yunjin was someone he had brought back on his own initiative made it even more so.
What if Tang Yunjin refused?
Send her back?
That world no longer existed, so sending her back was impossible.
Before Gu Chenan could figure out a solution, Tang Yunjin suddenly said with a hint of melancholy, "Do you remember when you first became my disciple?"
Gu Chenan nodded and turned to look at Tang Yunjin, "Of course I remember. Why do you ask?"
Tang Yunjin shook her head gently, took off her little leather shoes, hugged her knees, and sat on the sofa, "What do you think would have happened if I hadn't taken you as my disciple?"
What would have happened if Tang Yunjin hadn't taken him as her disciple?
Gu Chenan had never thought about this before. He pondered for a moment.
"I... I don't know."
Tang Yunjin looked straight ahead and said, "Our Tang Family's medical skills were very important to you at that time, weren't they?"
Hearing this, Gu Chenan nodded, "Yes."
At that time, Su Qianmo's father was seriously ill, and Lin Yu was about to treat him. Without the Tang Family's medical skills, Gu Chenan wouldn't have been able to intervene in advance and would have allowed Lin Yu to act according to the original plot, shocking everyone.
For Gu Chenan at that time, Tang Yunjin's family's medical skills were his only solution.
"Why do you ask?" Gu Chenan was a bit puzzled.
Tang Yunjin shook her head as if talking to herself, "Then think about it now, what would you have done if I hadn't agreed to take you as my disciple?"
For this puzzling question, Gu Chenan didn't know what Tang Yunjin was getting at, but since she asked, he might as well answer.
Gu Chenan paused and said, "Your family's medical skills were very important to me. I would have definitely asked you to teach me, even if you hadn't taken me as your disciple."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yunjin suddenly turned her head, "Such as?"
"Such as..."
Gu Chenan pondered for a moment, as if mustering up some courage, and said, "Then I would have asked you to be my girlfriend!"
"This..."
Tang Yunjin's cheeks flushed instantly, and she lowered her head.
It was fine when Tang Yunjin hadn't brought up the question, but since she had, Gu Chenan decided to take the opportunity.
He asked, "What if I hadn't chosen to become your disciple back then, but instead asked you to be my girlfriend? Would you have agreed?"
"I..."
Tang Yunjin looked up at Gu Chenan for a moment, then lowered her head and said, "I probably wouldn't have agreed back then..."
As she spoke, she raised her head, her eyes fixed on Gu Chenan, and slowly uttered a few words from her delicate lips.
"...But now, I would!"
Instantly, Gu Chenan was stunned, as if struck by lightning, frozen in place.
"Xiao Tang?!"
At that moment, Bai Yutian, with messy hair and half-asleep, yawned and walked out of the room, only to see Tang Yunjin on the sofa and immediately woke up.
She had become very close to Tang Yunjin when they practiced acupuncture together with Gu Chenan, and their relationship grew even closer after the kidnapping incident they went through together.
Seeing Tang Yunjin, she immediately gave her a big hug.
"Xiao Tang, you're finally here, that's great!" Bai Yutian, like a child, rubbed her face against Tang Yunjin.
Xiao Tang?!
Hearing this address, Gu Chenan frowned in confusion.
Although Xiao Tang was young, she was at least twenty years old, and Bai Yutian was only nineteen. Why did she call her Xiao Tang?
However, Tang Yunjin didn't seem to mind, obviously used to Bai Yutian's way of addressing her.
"Yutian, did you just wake up?"
Bai Yutian nodded with messy hair, "Mm-hmm."
"Uh... I mean..." Tang Yunjin awkwardly scratched her cheek, "Why don't you go wash your face first? There's eye boogers almost on my clothes."
"Ah?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yutian immediately raised her head and touched her eye corners.
"Wow, such big eye boogers!"
"Wait a moment, I'll be right back!"
With that, Bai Yutian quickly got up and ran into the bathroom.
Tang Yunjin watched her back and smiled helplessly, then looked at Gu Chenan, who also looked quite helpless.
"You and Yutian get along well, don't you?"
"Yes, we do. We were always together when I was teaching you acupuncture, so we got close." Tang Yunjin said.
Suddenly, Gu Chenan realized something.
So that's how it is. No wonder Xiao Tang knew my preferences. It was Bai Yutian who told her!
Damn, this girl doesn't have a filter. What if Xiao Tang had no interest in me? She might have laughed at me!
Soon, Bai Yutian finished washing up and came out.
"Xiao Tang, I missed you so much!"
As if nothing had happened, she once again flew towards Tang Yunjin for a hug.
Tang Yunjin smiled and said, "In my memory, we never parted."
"I know, I know!"
Bai Yutian looked up and said, "I felt the same way when I first came here."
After that, she squeezed herself between Gu Chenan and Tang Yunjin, pushing Gu Chenan to the side with her butt.
"Xiao Tang, you have no idea how boring it was without you!"
"Really? But there are other people, aren't there?" Tang Yunjin said with a smile.
"No, no." Bai Yutian shook her head, looking quite serious, "Others are others, you are you. It's different!"
"I see you've been having a good time with Kannon lately. Why are you saying this now that Xiao Tang is here?" Gu Chenan looked at Bai Yutian as if watching a performance.
"Uh..."
Bai Yutian's mouth twitched, and she paused for a few seconds before saying, "Kannon always teases me. I don't like her!"
"Oh, so you don't like me?"
Hoshino Kannon appeared behind the sofa at some point.
"Uh?"
Hearing Kannon's voice, Bai Yutian was stunned, slowly turned her head, and forced a smile, "Kannon, when... when did you get here?"
"Hmm..."
Kannon thought for a moment and said, "Probably when you said you were bored to death during this time."
Bai Yutian blinked and quickly stood up, "Kannon, let me explain, I meant..."
"No need to explain!"
Seeing that there was no room on the small sofa, Kannon sat on Gu Chenan's lap and pretended to be angry, "You, you, don't come to play with me anymore."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yutian was stunned.
Then, her mouth turned down, and her eyes reddened.
"Kannon, I'm sorry!"
Seeing this scene, the three of them looked at each other and burst out laughing.
Bai Yutian immediately realized something was wrong, quickly wiped away her tears, and frowned, "Hey, you, you're bullying me!"
"Alright, alright, just a joke."
Kannon patted Bai Yutian's head and looked at Tang Yunjin, "You're Yunjin, right? I'm Kannon. Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you too." Tang Yunjin nodded in response.
These two had not had much interaction in the novel's plot. Hoshino Kannon only knew that Tang Yunjin was Gu Chenan's master, and Tang Yunjin only knew that Hoshino Kannon was a Black Owl assassin.
But since both of them were here, it meant they held the same place in Gu Chenan's heart.
After getting acquainted, Kannon, with good judgment, said she was going back to her room, obviously intending to give the newly arrived Tang Yunjin and Gu Chenan some alone time.
But Bai Yutian, completely oblivious to the situation, still insisted on staying with Tang Yunjin.
In the end, Kannon, with great reluctance, picked up Bai Yutian and dragged her away.
In the main hall, only Gu Chenan and Tang Yunjin were left.
