"What's wrong?" Xu Wan blinked innocently.

Gu Huaizhi retracted his gaze and continued eating steak, "It's okay, as long as you are happy."

Why does it sound like there's something else going on in these words?

If you don't want to stay, just say so. Why are you being so sarcastic to her?

Xu Wan was secretly unhappy, but did not show it.

But it's true, Gu Huaizhi is a workaholic. If it weren't for Madam Gu calling him back, he probably wouldn't be seen many times in a year.

If she remembered correctly, the novel seemed to be called "Boss, the Young Mistress Ran Away Again", and the second male lead Gu Jinxuan described his eldest brother as a workaholic, and his dead wife did not stop him from continuing to be a workaholic.

Haha, since you love work so much, I suggest you marry your work!

"It's okay. If you have something to do at the company, you can leave first. I'll stay here with grandma." Xu Wan said very considerately.

Gu Huai looked at her in surprise, but before he could open his mouth, someone spoke.

"That won't do!" Upon hearing her words, Madam Gu said without hesitation, "How can you not fulfill your filial duties yourself and let your wife fulfill them for you?"

"Huaizhi, you have to stay today too, just to keep me company. You are not allowed to leave first!"

"Grandma is right." Gu Huaizhi nodded obediently.

Madam Gu then smiled brightly, "Wanwan, I've had someone clean up the rooms for you, so you can stay here with peace of mind today."

"Thank you grandma."

After responding, Xu Wan suddenly realized that if she and Gu Huaizhi stayed, wouldn't they have to live in the same room?

Gu Huaizhi was usually not in the villa, and when he came back he slept in a separate room from her, so she had no idea what she would face if she stayed in the old house.

Her eyes widened immediately, so Gu Huaizhi's meaningful expression just now was...

She couldn't help but look at the person beside her, and saw him eating calmly and confidently.

Xu Wan held her forehead and thought, she was digging a hole for herself. She should have refused from the beginning.

Although Gu Huaizhi didn't look at her directly, he could still see her expression and movements from the corner of his eye.

After dinner, Xu Wan followed Gu Huaizhi back to the room.

Standing at the door, Xu Wan looked at Gu Huaizhi's back and suddenly felt embarrassed as if she was going to a hotel with her boyfriend.

Gu Huaizhi walked into the room and felt that the person behind him had not caught up with him. He turned around and saw her standing at the door without moving.

"What are you doing standing at the door? Isn't this the result you want?" he said calmly.

Xu Wan:? ! !

What was the result she wanted? Did this guy think that she stayed here on purpose just to share a room with him?

Xu Wan was so angry that she laughed. If she had met a narcissist like him in the past, she would have scolded him directly for eight hundred rounds without beating around the bush.

But her current personality doesn't allow her to do that, so she endures it!

Thinking of this, she walked in boldly and sat directly on the soft big bed.

As soon as her buttocks touched the bed, it sank into it. It felt quite soft. She stood up and sat down again, repeating the cycle.

"Get up." Gu Huaizhi said with a frown.

"Hmm?" Xu Wan looked at him puzzledly.

"Take a shower before going to bed." He had a blank expression on his face, but his hands hanging by his sides were clenched into fists, and it seemed that he was still trying his best to endure it.

Only then did Xu Wan remember that he was a mysophobe, and suddenly he felt a great sense of revenge.

"But I'm so tired! I want to get some sleep first."

After she finished speaking, she lay down, rolled around on the bed, and secretly observed the changes in Gu Huaizhi's expression.

He took a deep breath and pursed his thin lips.

"It's so comfortable!" Xu Wan continued rolling on the bed.

Seeing his forbearing look, Xu Wan rolled even more happily.

Gu Huaizhi walked over and wrapped her in the quilt.

"Ah! What are you doing!" Xu Wan tried to get up in panic, but she was already wrapped in the quilt by Gu Huaizhi, like a cicada pupa.

"Let me go!" Xu Wan struggled to get out of the quilt, but failed.

Gu Huaizhi picked her up directly, walked into the bathroom in the room, and put her in the bathtub.

Just as Xu Wan was about to crawl out of the quilt, she was drenched in cold water by the shower head in Gu Huaizhi's hand.

The water splashed on her face, her hair was dripping with water, and then dripped onto her body. Her clothes were half wet and sticky.

"Ah! Gu Huaizhi!" Xu Wan didn't care whether her character collapsed or not, because she really collapsed, her defense was broken!

She's going crazy!

Gu Huaizhi remained expressionless. He turned off the shower and put it into Xu Wan's hand. "Come out after you finish your shower!"

He turned around, left the bathroom without any reluctance and closed the door.

Xu Wan punched and kicked him through the door. His eyes fell on the wet quilt in the bathtub. He bent down, took the quilt out and threw it on the ground, then kicked it twice out of frustration.

"Damn Gu Huaizhi!" She had a sour face.

What a stupid infatuated sister-in-law, is Gu Huaizhi worthy of her? She might as well die. Maybe she can go back after she dies.

She opened the frosted window of the bathroom, and a breeze blew in, bringing with it the unique scent of sea breeze. There was actually a sea behind the old house!

You can also hear the sound of waves hitting the beach. The moon is hidden in the clouds, and the soft moonlight is sprinkled on the dark sea.

Xu Wan sighed. Unfortunately, she was not in the mood to look at the sea. Her body was already wet, and the sea breeze made her feel even more uncomfortable.

She opened the window. This was the third floor, but the height was higher than that of an ordinary building.

Xu Wan was a little hesitant. What if he was really dead?

Her game plan has not yet been implemented, and she is unwilling to give up.

Or she could jump from the second floor of the villa. After all, that was the opportunity for her to travel through time. Mainly, no one would be killed by jumping from the second floor, so the risk was less than here.

Thinking of this, Xu Wan silently retracted his foot.

She closed the window, picked up the robe that the servant had already prepared, and filled the bathtub with hot water.

The bed had been covered with new sheets and quilts, and Gu Huaizhi was sitting on the sofa reading a magazine.

Looking at the closed bathroom door, he checked his watch and frowned.

More than an hour has passed. Did she fall into the bathtub?

After another ten minutes, seeing that she still showed no signs of coming out, Gu Huaizhi finally put down the magazine and knocked on the door.

"Ok?"

No one responded to her.

"If you don't say anything, I'll go in." He said lightly.

Sure enough, there was a sound of the doorknob turning, and Xu Wan came out in her nightgown, covering her chest with one hand, and walked past him without even looking at him.

Gu Huaizhi glanced at her back and went into the bathroom without saying anything.

Soon, the sound of water was heard in the bathroom.

Xu Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The silk nightgown she was wearing was comfortable, but the neckline was too low. It only exposed half of her body, which was a bit revealing.

Cursing inwardly, she began to rummage through her drawers and discovered that her nightgowns all had very low necklines.

I didn’t expect that the original owner was a sexy hottie.

But now think about it, Shen Huaizhi didn't react at all just now.
