Chapter 13 : Did He Actually Ask Me to Pour Water?

• Even if Qin Yanzheng helped her today, it was only because he didn't want any trouble and didn't want to deal with these nonsensical things.
• Gu Nai withdrew her desolate gaze and let her thoughts drift away.
• ...
• Gu Nai had been busy preparing for the competition these past few days, so she often worked late into the night. When she got thirsty, she would go downstairs to get some water.
• On this particular night, Gu Nai was busy as usual until midnight. When she came downstairs to get some water, she unexpectedly saw a familiar figure in the lobby.
• Qin Yanzheng had just returned from a social engagement outside and had planned to rest on the couch. However, the looming figure in front of him made him open his eyes warily.
• When he looked up, he saw Gu Nai's face.
• Gu Nai was also startled by the coldness in Qin Yanzheng's eyes.
• She thought he wasn't feeling well, but it turned out he was just resting. She had overthought it...
• "What's wrong? Are you up to something sneaky in the middle of the night?" Gu Nai was about to leave, but she stopped and turned around.
• Her face was full of confusion, not understanding why Qin Yanzheng would say such things.
• "What?"
• "Isn't it true?" Qin Yanzheng loosened his grip on his wristwatch and sneered, "Gu Huan, the driver told me that you've been running faster than anyone else after school these past few days. Did you get into trouble and attract someone's attention?"
• Gu Nai swallowed nervously.
• Running.
• She ran because Gu Jianfeng had been looking for her these past few days. Since Gu Jianfeng couldn't reach her by phone, he must have wanted to come to the school directly to confront her. She wouldn't be foolish enough to let Gu Jianfeng threaten her!
• Besides, the competition hadn't even started yet, and she didn't have any money to give Gu Jianfeng!
• "What's wrong? Did I hit the mark?" Qin Yanzheng raised an eyebrow in disdain as Gu Huan remained silent.
• Gu Nai was speechless, but her hand by her side instinctively clenched into a fist.
• Of course not!
• But she couldn't argue with Qin Yanzheng! If she did, he would definitely sense something!
• Thinking this, Gu Nai wanted to turn around and go upstairs, but she was stopped by Qin Yanzheng.
• "Wait, go pour me a glass of water." Qin Yanzheng rubbed his throbbing temples. Normally, he wouldn't bother asking Gu Huan to pour water for him, but tonight his headache was really severe, and his consciousness was already fuzzy when the driver brought him back.
• Gu Nai thought she had misheard.
• Pour water?
• Did Qin Yanzheng actually ask her to pour water?!
• "Why are you standing there? Didn't you hear me?" Qin Yanzheng frowned impatiently when Gu Huan didn't move.
• She heard him.
• Qin Yanzheng was indeed strange. One moment he was humiliating her, and the next moment he was ordering her around. He truly was a young master.
• In her heart, Gu Nai silently criticized Qin Yanzheng, then turned and went into the kitchen.
• Although Qin Yanzheng wasn't very clear-headed, he had clearly seen the small movements on Gu Huan's face when she left.
• He had seen too many women pretending, but Gu Huan's actions just now didn't seem intentional. Instead, they seemed...
• Gu Nai went into the kitchen and poured herself a glass of water first before pouring one for Qin Yanzheng.
• They were close to each other, and she could smell the alcohol on Qin Yanzheng's body.
• Forget it, she should pour him a glass of honey lemon water.
• When Gu Nai came out with the water, Qin Yanzheng was already leaning on the couch, his head turned to the side as if he had fallen asleep...
• The man on the couch had one hand pressed against his forehead, the collar of his shirt slightly open. His handsome face was flushed, clearly suffering from a headache due to excessive drinking.
• Gu Nai slowly approached, this was the first time she had gotten such a close look at Qin Yanzheng.
• People always said that the four young masters of the Qin family in Kyoto were incredibly handsome, unmatched by anyone else. Everyone seemed insignificant in front of him.
• Tonight, upon closer inspection, it was indeed true. Qin Yanzheng's appearance was like the most exquisite piece of art carved by God, without a single flaw.
