Chapter 68: So Fast?

After speaking, she glanced at the closed door, turned and was about to leave, ready to give the young man some private space.

However, the next second, the door opened from the inside.

The moment the mother and son met eyes, both saw shock in the other’s eyes.

“So fast?”

“Why are you here?”

Their voices rang out at the same time, and a strange atmosphere began to rise…

Gu Zhiyan’s cold eyes narrowed, “What’s so fast?”

Gu’s Mother: …

Gu’s Mother looked at the sky, at the ground, just not at Gu Zhiyan, “I mean, the clothes from the brand were delivered really fast.”

“Right, it’s the clothes.”

Noticing her son’s suspicious gaze, Gu’s Mother was afraid he would continue asking, so she quickly changed the subject, “You’re…?”

She had just been…coughing inside, and now she’s out?

Gu Zhiyan turned back to look at Jian Yao on the sofa, “Yaoyao twisted her ankle, I went downstairs to get some medicinal oil to rub on it.”

Gu’s Mother: “!”

“Yaoyao is injured?” She slightly tilted her head, looking past Gu Zhiyan into the room, and sure enough, she saw Jian Yao sitting obediently on the sofa, her ankle swollen.

She pushed Gu Zhiyan out of the way, “Yaoyao is injured and you’re not going to get medicine quickly? What are you standing here for? Waiting for the medicinal oil to climb up the stairs and find you?”

After speaking, she went straight into the room to check on Jian Yao’s ankle, not forgetting to instruct Gu Zhiyan before entering.

“Also, have someone bring Yaoyao’s clothes up, we’ll have a good look at them later.”

Gu Zhiyan, who was unceremoniously abandoned at the door, had gradually become accustomed to this kind of differential treatment, and resignedly helped his mother close the door and went downstairs to get the medicine.

In the room.

“Mom.”

Jian Yao saw Gu’s Mother coming over and wanted to get up, but was pressed back down.

“You’re injured, don’t move!”

Gu’s Mother had Jian Yao sit down and looked at her ankle with a look of concern, “How did you get hurt?”

Jian Yao remembered the not-so-glorious fall just now, coughed lightly, “It’s my own fault, I was careless, it’s nothing, don’t worry.”

She used her skirt to cover her ankle and looked at Gu’s Mother, “Why are you here now?”

Gu’s Mother held her hand, “I didn’t know what size clothes you wear before, so I couldn’t have them prepared, I just called and had them send another batch, you have a look, if you like anything, you can choose a few more.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Zhiyan had already entered with the medicinal oil.

Behind him, a swarm of five or six saleswomen followed, each tall and slender, with fair skin and beautiful features, the last few each pushing a wheeled clothes rack, on which hung a variety of clothes.

The one in the lead had a store manager’s badge pinned to her chest, and when she saw Gu’s Mother, her pretty face bloomed like a flower.

“Mrs. Gu.”

When facing outsiders, Gu’s Mother had a just-right smile on her face, “Today I’m buying clothes for my daughter-in-law, let the models go to the next room to try on clothes and bring them over for my daughter-in-law to see.”

“Yes.”

Jian Yao’s gaze swept over the smiling store manager.

She looked a bit familiar, like the one Xu Si liked the most, ridiculously expensive, and the saleswomen were extremely arrogant.

Usually, to buy a new bag, you had to match it with goods worth tens of millions, and you still had to look at the person’s face.

Jian Yao had been with Xu Si twice, although each time it was the store manager who greeted her, but her attitude was cold.

She thought she was just not a smiling person by nature, but it turned out they just didn’t give her enough.

Jian Yao:…

Suddenly, she understood why some people hated the rich.

Gu’s Mother wanted to apply the medicine to Jian Yao herself, but Jian Yao quickly shook her head and refused.

Gu Zhiyan unscrewed the medicinal oil and squatted down, “Let me do it.”

The shiny medicinal oil poured into his palm, his other hand covering it and gently rubbing, using his body temperature to activate the medicinal properties, then he held her ankle and gently rubbed it evenly, pressing and rubbing it open.

A series of movements were smooth and flowing, without any hesitation.

Ordering her son in front of her own mother, Jian Yao felt a little embarrassed.

On the other hand, Gu’s Mother, while Gu Zhiyan went to wash his hands, secretly taught her, “Ayan doesn’t know how to take care of people, you should order him around more often, train him well, if he doesn’t listen, you can send a WeChat message to Mom.”

Jian Yao blushed, “Actually, he’s already taking good care of me.”

As she spoke, the models who had changed clothes walked in one after another, showing off the clothes on their bodies.

Gu’s Mother pulled Jian Yao’s hand, “See if you like anything, let them go get your size.”

Under the enthusiastic introduction of the store manager and Gu’s Mother’s expectant eyes, Jian Yao chose two sets of pajamas, and then a few more casual small dresses and bags, before sending them out.

The room became quiet again, but because of the previous scene, Jian Yao’s originally nervous and apprehensive mood miraculously calmed down a bit.

Or rather, she had a bit more courage to break the pot and sink the boat.

So what if they sleep together?

What’s the big deal!

Anyway, Gu Zhiyan doesn’t like women.

Jian Yao prepared herself mentally, stood up very toughly, and in a blink of an eye, she saw the pajamas lying beside her.

She cowered again.

Gu Zhiyan was still there, how could she change clothes?

Gu Zhiyan had just closed the door and came over, and he saw through Jian Yao’s thoughts, and took the initiative to suggest.

“I’ll go to the bathroom first, call me when you’re done changing.”

Only then did Jian Yao remember that there was a bathroom in the room.

Jian Yao: …

So just now, why didn’t he go to the bathroom to change clothes?

Gu Zhiyan’s obsidian-like eyes looked directly at Jian Yao’s eyes, not dodging or avoiding, not at all flustered, “I forgot just now.”

Jian Yao was speechless.

I suggest you don’t use mind-reading on me, thanks!

Although Jian Yao’s feet had just been medicated, she really wasn’t used to not taking a bath, so she finally decided to go to the bathroom and wipe herself with a towel.

Gu Zhiyan expressed his understanding, in order to prevent her feet from getting worse, he had already prepared hot water and a stool in the bathroom, and then carried her into the bathroom.

First time, second time, familiar.

Moreover, this time he was wearing clothes, Jian Yao was much more natural.

However, the moment the bathroom door closed, she still couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

Even though Gu Zhiyan had already been gentlemanly and considerate, she was still a little restrained the first time she slept in the same room with a man.

Jian Yao hung up her pajamas and picked up a clean towel to soak in the hot water, wrung it out.

In the smooth-walled bathroom, every little sound seemed particularly loud, especially the sound of splashing water.

Thinking that Gu Zhiyan was in the bedroom outside, Jian Yao’s movements immediately became much smaller, trying not to make too much noise, to avoid embarrassment.

Suddenly, light music started playing outside.

The music was not too loud or too quiet, just enough to cover the sound of the water splashing in the bathroom.

Jian Yao’s hand holding the towel tightened, a warm current surged through her heart, and she was amazed by Gu Zhiyan’s thoughtfulness.

Outside in the bedroom, Gu Zhiyan carefully made sure that the sound wouldn’t be too loud, making Jian Yao feel too noisy, before turning around and sitting down with a glass of water.

The phone casually thrown on the sofa buzzed.

Gu Zhiyan took a sip of water and picked up the phone to open it.

It was that spider spirit Pei Yi again.

Pei Yi: “Breaking news! Breaking news! Lu Chengze’s talks with the shareholders broke down, I heard that when he left Lu’s, his face was green!”
