26: Chapter 26 Warmth (1) 26: Chapter 26 Warmth (1) Why was he here?
She hadn’t expected his mastery in ancient martial arts to have reached such a level!
An Yiqing was aware that the Gu family came from a lineage of ancient martial arts, but even if one cultivated their inner strength from the womb, they wouldn’t become as formidable as Gu Yelin!
Her contemplation lasted only a moment, and the situation in front of her had already reversed.
The nine people brought by Gu Yelin were all ancient martial arts experts with considerable strength.
Although they did not possess Gu Yelin’s extraordinary ability to tear people apart with bare hands, they had managed to dismember the limbs of the men in black.
Gu Yelin had been investigating the mysterious deaths occurring in Xuandu City lately and had sent people to follow these vans all day after finding some clues.
When he receives his subordinate’s message and rushes over, he saw a scene that enraged him!
He didn’t wonder why An Yiqing was there; just seeing her injured made him lose all reason.
Without thinking, he immediately jumped out of the car and charged over, intent on tearing apart these men to vent his fury.
An Yiqing stared blankly as Gu Yelin bent down to lift her up; his movements were gentle as if handling a fragile crystal doll.
“That, that…
I can walk on my own,” An Yiqing regained her senses as she blushed, “Whoosh.” She had never been so close to a man before.
The unique scent emanating from him slowly eroded her sense of smell, and her heartbeat involuntarily began to race out of control.
“You’re injured,” Gu Yelin said, not setting An Yiqing down but simply stating the fact with his sexy lips pursed slightly—his displeasure and concern were clearly visible.
“No, it’s nothing!
I want to get down!” An Yiqing, oblivious to Gu Yelin’s displeasure, only felt uncomfortable all over, as if her body was heating up, and her heart seemed to be sick.
Seeing how insistent An Yiqing was, even though it pained him, Gu Yelin respected her wishes.
He gently set her down but stayed close by her side.
“Boss, we’ve caught them all,” a young man with fiery red hair reported to Gu Yelin, sneaking a glance at An Yiqing.
Geez, this girl was impressive; he had never seen the boss so anxious over someone.
“Take them back to base,” he said tersely, his voice cold as ice.
One could imagine these people would not have an easy time in the days to come.
After speaking, Gu Yelin turned to An Yiqing, his tone much softer, “I’ll take you back to school.”
“Uh…
wait, I want to say goodbye to Head Duan,” An Yiqing thought about it and still accepted Gu Yelin’s offer to take her back.
Gu Yelin remained silent; he did not question why An Yiqing was with Duan Tang, but when he noticed Duan Tang’s gaze toward An Yiqing, his cold dark eyes involuntarily darkened.
“Head Duan, I’m going to leave now,” An Yiqing approached Duan Tang, intending to say a quick goodbye, but she saw that his face was pale.
Out of professional habit, her delicate hand reached for Duan Tang’s wrist.
From a distance, Gu Yelin’s expression darkened further upon witnessing this scene, and Duan Tang, whose wrist was seized, was also stunned.
His clear eyes flickered, and an unknown feeling slowly began to sprout within him.
“It’s just some superficial injuries; get some good rest when you’re back.
And remember, you owe me a favor,” An Yiqing said as she took his pulse while reminding him to return the favor.
Duan Tang’s heart had just begun to stir, but he couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head at An Yiqing’s words.
“Don’t worry, I won’t forget this favor,” he replied.
After saying goodbye, An Yiqing turned to walk toward Gu Yelin.
Duan Tang watched her retreating figure, his gaze then shifting to rest on Gu Yelin.
He knew who this man was—Gu Yelin, the youngest general of Xuanjin, part of the Gu family’s third generation.
He could tell that Gu Yelin’s look at An Yiqing was one of affection.
However…
hehe, wouldn’t it be more interesting if he involved himself in the matter!
What do you think?
