Lure, Fungus

Little Mu'er collapsed in Gu Shengye's arms, making him completely panicked.

The fear in his eyes made him feel a little helpless. For a moment, he felt that his world had been turned upside down.

He ignored the gazes of the people at the scene and hugged the woman in his arms in panic. He just wanted Xiao Mu'er to wake up.

------

"Teacher Gu, Teacher Gu, can you teach me to play the violin?!"

The girl's voice was soft and sweet. Her little hand was tugging at the sleeve of the man in front of her, acting coquettishly towards him.

She used all the skills she had learned since elementary school to coax the man in front of her to agree to her proposal.

“Wait until mom and dad agree, okay?” The man leaned down to her eye level.

He answered her with low, gentle words, and gently stroked the top of her head as he spoke.

Signaling her to be well-behaved, he soothed the little girl's emotions.

I don’t want to make her feel disappointed, and I don’t want to dampen her passion for music.

The obsidian eyes stared quietly into the girl's clear pupils, looked at each other gently, and smiled slightly.

Now the girl looks at the suave man in front of her.

I was just thinking: Teacher Gu is so pretty!!!

"So, little Mu'er, just listen to your teacher, okay?" Gu Shengye asked her.

Bai Muge seemed to be possessed by his voice and nodded obediently in front of him.

On a breezy afternoon, the willow branches swayed in the breeze, leaving ripples on the water.

The scenery of Jiangnan with its small bridges and flowing water is like an ink painting in the misty Jiangnan.

Forever frozen in Bai Muge's memory.

----

"Teacher Gu." Bai Muge muttered softly in his sleep.

When she finally opened her eyes, what she saw was a room that was so familiar to her.

She was taken back home by Gu Shengye.

The heavy curtains completely blocked out the sunlight from the window, making it difficult for her to tell whether it was day or night.

"Aye, Aye..." a soft voice echoed in the room.

Click.

The door opened and Gu Shengye strode towards her.

"Baby, you're awake. Do your fingers still hurt?" Gu Shengye's gentle and concerned voice reached Xiao Mu'er's ears.

As he spoke, he began to check the condition of her fingers.

Seeing the redness on her face gradually returning to her former beauty, the panic in his eyes slowly disappeared.

"It feels better." She looked at her fingers, all wrapped up.

It's pretty cute!!!

She looked at him with bright eyes and waved her fair and slender fingers, "Aye, look, isn't it cute?!"

Bai Muge acted coquettishly towards him, and her soft and cute look melted Gu Shengye's heart.

Bai Muge knew the panic in Gu Shengye's man's eyes, and she didn't want to make Gu Shengye anxious, so she had to use this method.

The man in front of him didn't expect that he should have been the one to coax her, but was coaxed by the little woman. He gently and domineeringly held the little girl in his arms.

She didn't know how nervous and scared he was when she fainted in his arms.

I feel like I won’t be able to see her in the next second!!!

I still feel scared now!!

Only when he felt the warmth in his arms did he realize what she meant.

He really longed for the warmth in her arms.

Bai Muge hugged the man's strong waist. In his arms, she relied on him from the bottom of her heart!

"Aye, I'm thirsty and want to drink some water."

Bai Muge spoke, and Gu Shengye naturally responded to his request.

"Okay, lie on the bed and wait for me."

It was a simple sentence in itself, but when it came out of his mouth, it had an extra layer of ambiguity.

Bai Muge didn't dare to look at him and covered her blushing face with the quilt.

Gu Shengye left the room before continuing to discuss the issue with the doctor.

"Mr. Gu, Miss Bai's fingers have received timely treatment. She will recover after a few days of rest and recuperation. However, she can no longer play the violin in the next few days." The doctor introduced Bai Muge's condition in detail.

"Also, Miss Bai applied ointment on her fingers before she fainted to prevent further damage to her finger nerves. It's a good medicine."

"Now that you know it's a good medicine, you know what to do."

"Yes, I will go prepare medicine for Miss Bai now. Goodbye."

Gu Shengye signaled with his eyes for the servant to send the doctor away.

Turning around and walking downstairs, Jiang Zhu was waiting for news from Gu Shengye with an anxious look on her face, and Pei Yunche was by her side.

"Don't worry, Shengye has the most advanced medical team in Haicheng, Miss Bai will be fine."

Pei Yunche comforts Jiang Zhu.

Hearing footsteps approaching, Jiang Zhu sat up from the sofa.

“Mu Ge has woken up, Miss Jiang, thank you for the ointment.

In front of his little friend and his brothers, Gu Shengye would not show his indifference.

"Ointment???" Jiang Zhu took it out from his hand and handed it to Gu Shengye.

"The ointment you mentioned should be this. Since it is helpful to Mu Mu, keep it."

"Thank you." Gu Shengye took it and continued, "Mu Ge has woken up. She is a little thirsty. Please ask Miss Jiang to bring her a glass of water. She will feel much better when she sees you."

Jiang Zhu was sent away by Gu Shengye.

He took Pei Yunche to the study.

The door was closed, and Pei Yunche got straight to the point, "Do you suspect that this was Mr. Gu's idea?"

"If not him, who else could it be?"

As he spoke, Gu Shengye's eyes turned bloodshot, his fists clenched, and the veins on his wrists were exposed.

"I don't think so. You have blocked the news so tightly, he may not be able to detect it." Pei Yunche analyzed the situation with him calmly.

"Haicheng, who else dares to take action?" Gu Shengye's eyes revealed murderous intent.

"You can only blame yourself for not protecting Miss Bai well."

Pei Yunche's words made Gu Shengye feel guilty.

He didn't make it public because he just hoped that Xiao Mu'er wouldn't be criticized from all sides.

He just wanted Xiao Mu'er to be a simple and pure girl pursuing music by his side.

"I heard that you had some unpleasantness with Fang recently." Pei Yunche said.

"Fang, you don't have the guts yet." His words were filled with sarcasm and contempt.

However, he did remember what happened that day when Xiao Mu'er mentioned Concubine Fang to him.

Naturally, suspicion fell on her.

Gu Shengye has already sent someone to retrieve the videos of the past few days, hoping that the results will disappoint him.

Pei Yunche patted his brother's shoulder, just like he had done before when they encountered difficulties.

Comfort each other without words!!

He knew how much Gu Shengye wanted to prevent Miss Bai from getting hurt because of him.

How much people in darkness long for light.

People like them, who are scarred and have worked in the business world, understand this best.

The more you want to cherish something, the more careful you should be.

Gu Shengye's eyes became sinister and terrifying again. He vowed to make anyone who dared to hurt Xiao Mu'er pay a price a hundred times more painful than blood and tears.

"Don't worry, I won't leave any traces no matter what happens. I will do things thoroughly so that no one will have a second chance."

The man's eyes were bloodshot and murderous intent was evident.
