Upon receiving the order, Lie Huo also let go of Pei Pei, who was so frightened her legs went limp, and she knelt to the ground.
She began to sob softly, Brother Zhan is so terrifying! Is he really the demon from the rumors?
Huo Yiwen called people from the President Mansion to take Pei Pei back.
She hadn’t left yet; she needed to have a proper talk with Gu Xiaozhan.
But unexpectedly, Gu Xiaozhan, after carrying Mu Anhan back to the room, had not come out for a long time.
Inside the bedroom.
Mu Anhan’s arm had already been bandaged, yet Gu Xiaozhan still held her tightly in his embrace, unwilling to let go for even a moment.
"Hubby..." she called him softly.
Gu Xiaozhan gazed at her, his sharp eyes tinted with a fresh red hue, his demonic nature hadn’t completely dissipated, "I won’t let you go!"
He had only been away from home for a short while, yet she was injured again.
His obsession with Mu Anhan had reached a pathological level.
In the previous life, he had been so bizarrely possessive toward Mu Anhan but only incited Mu Anhan’s stronger resistance.
The two were like bulls locking horns, fighting till the world turned dark, neither willing to give in.
She was gradually eroding his love; she was gradually increasing her hate.
Finally, she caused her own demise.
Finally, he drove himself mad.
In this life, Mu Anhan would not repeat the same mistakes.
She gazed at him, her beautiful eyes filled with sparkling love, "Hubby, don’t let go, I also love being in your embrace..."
Gu Xiaozhan didn’t care whether what she said was true or false anymore; regardless of truth or lie, he would not let her go again.
"But..." Mu Anhan’s face blushed with shyness, "I want to use the bathroom!"
Gu Xiaozhan was taken aback but still did not release her; instead, he picked her up and carried her to the restroom.
Mu Anhan glared at him, though she felt more embarrassed at the moment, glaring had no effect, rather it added a bit of playful irritation.
But no matter how much she wanted to stare a hole into him, it was futile.
Once this man decided something, he wouldn’t change.
"Hubby, let me do it myself!" Mu Anhan knew being tough wouldn’t work, so she softened, wrapping her arms around his neck and coquettishly pleading, "Look, my feet aren’t injured? I can walk there!"
"There isn’t anything of yours I haven’t seen," Gu Xiaozhan countered.
Mu Anhan wanted to cry but didn’t have tears: "...Hubby, even if couples are intimate, they still need to maintain a bit of mystery, wouldn’t you agree?"
"Not necessary." The man decisively refused.
Mu Anhan knew one thing about people with obsessive traits: she couldn’t change them.
She simply closed her eyes, unwilling to witness such an awkward scene.
Fortunately, she was wearing a skirt, which made using the bathroom much easier.
After Gu Xiaozhan helped her complete this "magnificent" task, Mu Anhan only wanted to find a hole to hide in.
When he carried her back to the bedroom again, she avoided him with a flushed face!
"When my daughter was young, I was the one who held her for potty!" Gu Xiaozhan suddenly remarked.
Mu Anhan opened her eyes wide, he was such a responsible dad, she being the mother had never once done that for her son and daughter, they were already three years old, able to use the bathroom, wash hands, and eat by themselves.
No!
That’s not what she wanted to say!
"But I’m your woman, not your daughter!" she scoffed.
Suddenly, Mu Anhan remembered a novel she had read before, written by a Japanese master of mystery, titled "Secret." The protagonist’s beloved wife and daughter were in a car accident; the wife’s body died, but her soul reincarnated in the daughter’s body, and when the daughter grew up, she eventually got married, leaving the protagonist having lost both his wife and daughter...
She felt grateful she was reborn in her own body and could still live with Gu Xiaozhan.
"If you were my daughter..." Gu Xiaozhan paused slightly as he spoke.
