Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Obvious Fragility in the Gaze (4) Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Obvious Fragility in the Gaze (4) “Can you guarantee it’s just for a bath?”
Gu Annan fell silent for a mont. He hadn’t thought about this question.
But now, seeing her upper body exposed and gleaming like jade, and the irritated yet bashful look on her petite, palm-sized face… Even a casual glance seed like a tease.
No!
He couldn’t guarantee it was just for a bath.
Another mont, and he might have followed her into the bath to make up for what he hadn’t done last night.
“Be careful with the wounds on your body, clean yourself, and then co out to apply the dicine.”
He dropped that remark and left without looking back.

When Lu Wanwan finished her bath, she rembered she hadn’t taken any clothes because she had been carried directly there by Gu Annan.
Helplessly, she could only co out wrapped in a bath towel again.
“…Even in my next life in prison, I’d let him off cheap.”
Gu Annan was standing at the balcony door with his back to her, holding his phone.
He was dressed in ho clothes, one hand resting in his pocket, with the morning sun gilding his profile in light.
Upon hearing the voice behind him, he turned around with his phone, “Just like this for now.”
He hung up and walked straight toward her.
Wrapped in a bath towel so early in the morning, Lu Wanwan felt quite uncomfortable.
Her face tried to remain composed, but her hands unconsciously grasped at her own arms, “Where’s the dicine?”
Gu Annan took the dicine from the table, and as Lu Wanwan reached out to take it, he caught her in one arm and pressed her onto the bed, face down.
“Gu…”
“Quiet,” he said, sitting on the edge of the bed and unwrapping the towel around her.
Her flawless back was completely exposed to his view.
He swallowed, his eyes darkening and his lips turning dry. His hand holding the dicine bottle didn’t move for a long while.
Lu Wanwan felt her heart beating faster in the silence.
She turned her head away, her voice muffled, “Gu Annan, just hurry with the dicine.”
Gu Annan’s brows tightened slightly, and he finally began.
There weren’t many wounds on her body, so the dicine was quickly applied.
The gentle rubbing was comfortable, but whether it was the effect of the dicine or sothing else, the treated areas felt warm.
“Turn around,”
His voice, a bit husky, ca softly.
Lu Wanwan could hear the unrest in his voice, just like each night he tortured her with his deep, hoarse tones.
“Can you just step out first…”
His first response was silence.
Suddenly a hand reached out, lifted her head buried in the pillows.
She inadvertently t his deep, dark gaze.
That handso face was still as frosty as ever. Just as Lu Wanwan was about to speak, she saw him deftly open another dicine bottle to apply dicine on her forehead.
So he had asked her to turn over solely to apply dicine.
This misunderstanding made her initially awkward expression turn slightly blank, letting him lift her head and rub it as he wished.
Under her watchful eyes, Gu Annan applied the dication as quickly as possible before turning away from the bed.
Then, with his back to her, he capped each dicine bottle on the table, “Get dressed.”
Lu Wanwan, recalling her earlier overthinking and his careful application of the dicine, felt a twinge of guilt.
She quickly re-wrapped herself with the bath towel and ran over, “Let do it, I’ll take care of these.”
She rushed to help organize the small dicine bottles. The man next to her paused, turning his head.
His deep black eyes stared at her, his lips parting slightly, “Do you have to be so disheveled around to be happy?”
