"Here."

Gu Nuan lifted her head.

The man’s face enlarged before her, squeezing out a fierce, stern parental expression, "If you dare not eat it, I’ll pick you up later and smack your bottom."

Gu Nuan felt several black lines pop up on her forehead: Who was this kid trying to fool? Did he think he had become the headmaster of a kindergarten?

"Hand it over to me." Why would she dislike the bitterness of medicine? Besides, swallowing the pill in one gulp, you taste nothing at all.

Her hand touched the few pills in his palm, and Gu Nuan put them into her mouth and swallowed them all down with a gulp of water.

Seeing her so straightforward, the man who had just been acting like a kindergarten principal suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, "Aren’t you not afraid of the bitter medicine? Why didn’t you eat it before?"

"After eating, I’ll fall asleep. How can I go to work, how can I do my job?" Gu Nuan replied calmly.

So that was it, it seemed like she couldn’t feel comfortable without working all day long.

"You and Fang Yongxing’s team really hit it off. Who arranged it, I wonder?"

His last remark might have been casual, but Gu Nuan was all ears, "Do you think someone deliberately arranged for me to be with Team Leader Fang?"

"Don’t know." He sat down next to her, looking like he had no intention at all of discussing work, especially not here and now.

Feeling his gaze on her becoming a little strange, Gu Nuan’s heartbeat quickened as she asked, "Have you eaten?"

"I bought an old hen, I was planning on having you stew it into soup for you to drink," Xiao Yebai said.

Ordinary people would say, I’ll cook soup for you to drink, not have you cook it.

Gu Nuan wanted to hold her head again: "You bought an old hen, for me to eat? Why?"

"For nourishment. Old hens are good at laying eggs, aren’t they?"

Who knows where this kid picked up that tone and phrasing. Gu Nuan almost swore, in the future, you watch less of those TV shows and picture books not suitable for children.

The atmosphere was getting weirder by the minute.

Like the air expanding rapidly, carrying a flammable scent. When Gu Nuan quietly shifted an inch backward, his palm suddenly grasped the back of her head, and immediately, a kiss landed on her lips.

Gu Nuan distinctly felt that he was different tonight, his grip on her arm was so strong, as if that night when he saw his second sister, he wanted to break her with that intensity.

"Yebai!" In a moment of urgency, she called out during his moment to catch a breath.

He suddenly seemed to snap back to reality, but those eyes that were just now shrouded in affection became even more inscrutable, their color as deep as a bottomless pit, where you couldn’t see your own hand before your face.

When Gu Nuan met his gaze, her heart involuntarily skipped a beat.

Next, all she could do was just manage to grab the corner of his clothes as he suddenly embraced her waist and lifted her up, then carried her toward the room.

Gu Nuan felt as if the sky was falling, the lights on the ceiling seemed to spin, then suddenly, it turned from white to black as they entered the room, and she was stuffed into a soft, fluffy quilt.

The huge bed, she had just returned and did not know that he had moved the three-meter bed from their home as previously agreed. As a result, as she had expected, a three-meter bed took up the entire room, wall to wall. This meant if she wanted to get off this enormous bed, she had to move to the end, but his body, like a small mountain, was blocking the end of the bed.

As he leaned over as if to press down on her, Gu Nuan raised both hands to hold on to his shoulders.
