Unable to do Business

Hoshino Kannon was so surprised by Gu Chenan's sudden heartvoice that she didn't react for a moment.

She hadn't even heard Gu Chenan's first few heartvoices, and didn't know that Gu Chenan was already aware of her intentions.

At this moment, Gu Chenan looked at Hoshino Kannon with a calm expression on his face.

To be honest, he had been a little nervous before seeing Hoshino Kannon, but he wasn't flustered at all now.

He was even prepared to fight.

As long as Hoshino Kannon made a move against him, he was confident he could beat Hoshino Kannon until she cried for mercy.

[Hmph, you think I'm afraid of a crazy woman like you?]

[You don't know what I'm like when I go crazy. Let me tell you, even I'm scared of myself when I go crazy!]

[If you dare lay a finger on me, I guarantee I'll make you kneel and beg for mercy immediately!]

Gu Chenan thought to himself.

Of course, Hoshino Kannon's skills were formidable, and it wouldn't be as easy to defeat her as Gu Chenan imagined.

Gu Chenan thinking this way was just to embolden himself.

However, when Hoshino Kannon heard Gu Chenan's heartvoice, her eyebrows suddenly arched as she broke into a radiant smile, like a ray of warm winter sun that stirred one's heart.

One had to admit, Hoshino Kannon was a beauty, and her smile was charming. Gu Chenan was stunned for a few seconds when he saw her smile before quickly looking away.

[Tsk, why is this crazy woman suddenly smiling? It's creepy this late at night!]

[But I have to say, although Hoshino Kannon is crazy, she looks quite good when she smiles, I have to say...]

"Mr. Gu."

Hoshino Kannon deliberately appeared in Gu Chenan's line of sight, a lingering smile on her face as she tilted her head slightly.

"Do you need something else?" Gu Chenan looked away again.

"Mr. Gu, why won't you look at me?" Hoshino Kannon hopped over to Gu Chenan like a little bunny, leaning in close and batting her bright, charming eyes.

"Could it be...Mr. Gu is shy?" Hoshino Kannon pretended to be surprised as she covered her mouth.

[Tsk, what is this crazy woman up to?]

[Is she trying to seduce me now?]

[She thinks I'm shy? I'm known as a playboy in East Sea City. Even if you took all your clothes off and stood in front of me right now, my face wouldn't even flush!]

"The car is here, you can leave now." Gu Chenan's expression was cold as he looked down at Hoshino Kannon in front of him.

"Ah~" Hoshino Kannon let out a coquettish voice and shook her head. "I want to spend more time with Mr. Gu."

"Hmph." Gu Chenan scoffed. "My time is precious. I won't waste it in a place like this."

[And she wants to spend more time with me? Does she think I'm an idiot?]

[I don't know what she's planning to do!]

[Is she trying to seduce me with her feminine charms? Dream on!]

Hearing Gu Chenan's heartvoice, Hoshino Kannon was a little surprised.

Her usual method of assassinating men was to seduce them with her charms, then take their lives when they had their guard down completely.

But for the first time, this tried and true method had failed, and it failed on a man who was thought to be a playboy by everyone.

Things were getting interesting.

Hoshino Kannon showed another charming smile. She wrapped her arm around Gu Chenan's shoulder and said, "Mr. Gu, you know time is precious. Why don't we..."

As she spoke, Hoshino Kannon took Gu Chenan's hand and placed it on her cheek, slowly sliding it down, "...get right to the point? I think this way we definitely won't waste Mr. Gu's time."

Hoshino Kannon moved closer to Gu Chenan again. Now Gu Chenan could smell the faint fragrance from her black tresses.

[You're trying to seduce me with your exotic charm too?]

[Let me tell you, even when Liu Mingrui tried her best to seduce me, she failed. You pose no threat to me at all!]

Without another word, Gu Chenan pushed Hoshino Kannon away.

"What are you trying to do?" Gu Chenan's indifference turned to anger as he questioned her.

He had thought Hoshino Kannon would restrain herself after he got angry. After all, on the surface she was Su Qianmo's bodyguard while he was Su Qianmo's fiancé.

But to his surprise, Hoshino Kannon's eyes suddenly became gentle and coy. She twirled her hair bashfully and nodded, "Want to."

Gu Chenan's eyes widened in shock.

[Are you kidding me? I asked what you're trying to do, not if you want to do it, you idiot. Can't you pretend to not understand me?]

[Luckily I'm a gentleman. Otherwise I'd just drag you into the woods over there and you'd be screwed!]

[With no one around, even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come save you!]

"I'm leaving. You can keep standing here if you want."

Gu Chenan didn't want to become entangled with Hoshino Kannon anymore, so he turned to walk back to the manor.

But at that moment, he heard the clip-clopping of high heels behind him.

A chill went down his spine.

Crap, in order to get away from Hoshino Kannon, I turned my back to her!

She must be about to make her move now that she sees her tactics aren't working!

Gu Chenan gathered his energy and instantly activated his innate qi.

"Since you insist on doing this, I'll just have to make you kneel and beg for mercy!"

But the next second, Hoshino Kannon hugged him tightly from behind.

"Don't go, okay?" An enchanting voice sounded in Gu Chenan's ear, and he could even feel her breath.

Gu Chenan was stunned, his eyes wide open, his whole body frozen in place as if pierced through by something.

The night breeze, the glittering stars.

The endless chirping of cicadas, the swaying pagoda trees.

He wanted to leave, she wanted him to stay.

This scene was like something straight out of a sweet romance comic.

But unlike in the comics, Hoshino Kannon behind Gu Chenan was planning to make him fall completely before killing him.

While their motives were different, before that motive became clear, it was still somewhat surreal.

But Gu Chenan wasn't the type of person whose eyes could be clouded by a woman so easily. He was only stunned for a few seconds before immediately turning around to push her away.

"I'm warning you, just say what you want to say, don't touch me. I already have a girlfriend and I'm completely uninterested in you." Gu Chenan said arrogantly.

[Calm down, sister. You're being way too obvious.]

[Who makes a face that says 'hurry up and ravish me' the first time meeting someone?]

[Your skills clearly need work. What if you met someone more formidable than you? They might just push you down, then what would you do?]

[By the time you're crying 'help' and 'no', it would be too late.]

[So young yet always plotting how to seduce men, tsk tsk, the moral decay of society nowadays!]

[The clothes you're wearing are completely tasteless, what seducing men are you talking about?]

[Listen to my advice. Next time you see me, wear a tank top and white stockings. Don't try seducing me with your exotic charm, it's basically useless compared to Liu Mingrui. Just use your little white stockinged feet next time to show off in front of me, got it?]

Hearing Gu Chenan's heartvoice, Hoshino Kannon froze, and her mouth even twitched involuntarily.

You dare say my skills are lacking?

Do you know how many missions I've completed using this method?

Men are animals led by their lower halves. All those men knelt before me after I seduced them!

No exceptions!

Yet you haven't shown the slightest bit of wavering from beginning to end?!

How is that possible!

Hoshino Kannon was completely baffled.

She had used all her skills, yet Gu Chenan was completely unmoved by her.

He was even constantly ridiculing her in his heartvoice.

She was unwilling to accept this. Her proud skills had been utterly defeated by Gu Chenan, and so thoroughly at that.

At this moment, her objective had already quietly changed.

She no longer had any intention of killing Gu Chenan. Rather, she now wanted to make Gu Chenan submit to her.

Once she had made Gu Chenan completely fall in love with her, she would then fulfill her wish and kill him off!
