Mu Anhan blushed instantly, reaching out to pat his shoulder; these were the words she’d said to him on the way here.
She said she wanted to keep him warm, but now that he’s injured, he still wants to keep her warm.
"I’m not cold at all!" she huffed softly.
In truth, this so-called warmth was just a signal of flirtation between two people.
Gu Xiaozhan is injured now; how can she flirt with him?
He lowered his head to kiss her lips, her lips cool to the touch, how could she not be cold?
Mu Anhan wrapped her arms around his neck: "Don’t... you’re injured..."
Although the poison had been cleared, remnants lingered; how could she let him be so reckless?
"Can kissing transmit poison?" he paused, asking seriously.
Mu Anhan’s cheeks flushed, "No. But..."
"I won’t do anything." he replied hoarsely.
Mu Anhan whimpered softly, wanting to say something, but it was all kissed away by him.
She kissed more eagerly than he did.
Her heart surged like the tides.
Having experienced a second life, she knew what death felt like.
Yet, watching Gu Xiaozhan get hurt hurt her more than if it had been herself.
Although she appeared especially calm while handling his wound.
But afterward, she felt weak in her limbs.
She urgently needed to kiss him to prove he was okay.
She fiercely kissed his lips, then his chin, his throat...
Gu Xiaozhan chuckled softly: "Han Han... don’t rush..."
In the past, Gu Xiaozhan always took the lead in their affairs, while Mu Anhan passively accepted.
But now, she took the initiative.
It wasn’t just a signal of flirting; it was also a signal of heartbeats.
She looked at him eagerly: "Husband..."
"Isn’t it?" he asked huskily.
"But your hand..." Mu Anhan had not finished speaking when he already kissed her mouth again.
"Don’t worry, I can hold you with one hand!" Gu Xiaozhan’s hot breath brushed her ear.
It wasn’t just her.
He wanted to embrace her, to meld her into his very being.
Dawn was already breaking.
Due to the assassins, they were up all night, embracing each other; before long, the day broke.
"Han Han, get some sleep, I’ll wake you when it’s time to go," Gu Xiaozhan said softly to her.
"Okay." She had been worried all night; after learning he was safe, she indeed felt very tired.
When Mu Anhan awoke, it was already afternoon.
Gu Xiaozhan was already dealing with work on his computer; the winter sunshine shone on his handsome profile.
"Husband..." she called to him softly.
"Hungry?" Gu Xiaozhan shut the laptop, walking over to her side.
Lie Huo brought in the meal to their room.
His energy was better than before, and he spoke with admiration: "Thank you, madam, you are incredible!"
Gu Xiaozhan laughed: "It’s rare for someone to earn Lie Huo’s admiration."
He truly appreciated this loyal subordinate.
Lie Huo laughed as well, "The car to return to the Imperial City is ready."
"Once Han Han finishes eating, we’ll leave," Gu Xiaozhan said, looking over at her.
Lie Huo went to wait outside.
Mu Anhan playfully pouted, "It’s all your fault I slept so late."
Gu Xiaozhan tapped her cute nose: "Yes, it’s all my fault! I’ll make it up to you tonight when we get back."
