236: Revised: Chapter 236 Peace of Mind 236: Revised: Chapter 236 Peace of Mind It might have been an over-exertion of force; the strength applied was a bit too much.
Bai Yun felt a slight burning sensation on her lower abdon and couldn’t help but shout out!
“Ah…” Not exactly a heartrending scream, nor was it loud.
In fact, it carried a hint of embarrassnt, making the entire room suddenly take on a sowhat ambiguous atmosphere.
As Wu Xiaoyu was painstakingly massaging Bai Yun, Bai Kainan returned from the company.
As soon as he entered the door, the butler ca up to him, expressing great concern:
“Sir, it seems young miss is feeling unwell.
Miracle Doctor Wu is treating her.
Would you like to go and take a look?”
Bai Kainan had many descendants from the sa clan, but his only direct granddaughter was Bai Yun, whom he had always considered his precious gem, fearing she might suffer any harm.
Therefore, upon hearing that his beloved granddaughter was ill, Bai Kainan disregarded everything and rushed upstairs, intending to barge into Bai Yun’s bedroom without even knocking.
Bai Kainan pushed the door, only to be taken aback; it was locked?
Wasn’t Wu Xiaoyu treating her?
Why lock the door?
“Xiaoyu, what’s wrong?
Where do you feel uncomfortable?” Bai Kainan blurted out.
However, he regretted as soon as he spoke, his face showing a mix of uncertainty.
Because inside Bai Yun’s room, there were sounds of intimacy.
These sounds made him, as the grandfather, feel extrely awkward and at a loss for what to do.
The two people inside the room also panicked upon hearing Bai Kainan’s shout.
Though they were genuinely only treating an illness, they had indeed touched each other’s skin.
How could they explain this to the grandfather?
Quickly snapping out of her comfort, Bai Yun adjusted her clothes, pressed Wu Xiaoyu onto the sofa against the wall, and nervously opened the door.
As the door opened, Bai Kainan stood there hesitantly and silently.
Bai Yun spoke up first: “Gran…
Grandpa, why have you returned?
Didn’t… didn’t you say you had a eting?”
Bai Kainan noticed her face slightly flushed, breathing slightly heavy, her eyes wandering.
These confird his thoughts even more.
“Ahem… I’ve finished the eting!
The butler said you were not feeling well?” Bai Kainan forced himself to suppress the embarrassnt and asked casually.
Such matters involving pain, Bai Yun found it impossible to explain to her grandfather.
The atmosphere fell into an awkward silence.
Bai Yun pondered how to brush off her grandfather, while Bai Kainan considered how to drop hints to them!
Due to his body’s special reaction, Wu Xiaoyu didn’t want to get up.
Seeing the awkward silence at the door, he spoke up:
“Bai Yun’s throat hurts a bit, seems like she has a slight fire.
I was helping her… treat it… treat it!”
Upon hearing this, Bai Kainan noticed Wu Xiaoyu, sitting seriously on the sofa, legs tightly clenched together, looking sowhat like a mistreated daughter-in-law.
Seeing her grandfather staring at Wu Xiaoyu, Bai Yun quickly clutched her throat and spoke with a slightly hoarse voice: “Grandpa, I’m fine, it’s just a bit of heat.”
Despite intending to match Bai Yun with Qian Benben, Bai Kainan’s goal was rely a strong alliance.
This ti, at Old Commander’s birthday banquet, Bai Kainan realized once again that Qian Benben was rely an idle and incompetent wastrel.
If the Qian Family fell into his hands, it would take only a few years for its foundation to be ruined.
How could soone like him be entrusted with the heavy responsibilities of both Qian and Bai families?
Since Qian Benben was useless, Bai Kainan couldn’t be blad for going back on his word; after all, the empire he painstakingly built couldn’t be destroyed by such a rogue.
anwhile, Wu Xiaoyu, though impoverished, had within a few months started a chicken farm, opened a restaurant, and recently started a sauce factory.
Such skills were a rarity among his peers.
Don’t be fooled by his current modest assets; if he seized an opportune mont, why would he not soar to great heights?
Of course, more importantly, he possessed the ability to bring people back from the brink.
He not only cured Bai Kainan’s illness but also treated Old Commander and several wealthy old n.
Just with these skills, relationships, and connections, he was well qualified to match Bai Yun.
Thinking of this, Bai Kainan quickly accepted the idea and waved Wu Xiaoyu over, speaking kindly: “Xiaoyu, co here, I have a few words to say to you!”
Although the atmosphere lost its earlier romantic tension, Wu Xiaoyu remained determinedly seated, how could he stand up?
“Grandpa Bai, you can speak whatever you have to say,” Wu Xiaoyu still sat with clenched legs, trying to sound relaxed.
Having lived over seventy years, Bai Kainan had experienced many won.
Seeing him maintain that posture for so long, how could he not understand what had happened?
“Ahem… then you can stay seated!
Bai Yun, you go out for a while.
I need to talk to Xiaoyu!” Bai Kainan lowered his hand towards Wu Xiaoyu and instructed Bai Yun.
Seeing Wu Xiaoyu still sitting stiffly on her sofa, her grandfather calling him without moving, Bai Yun curiously glanced at Wu Xiaoyu and, almost coquettishly, asked:
“Are you hiding so secret?
What are you hiding from ?
Reveal it all!”
Seeing his granddaughter like this, Bai Kainan couldn’t help but shake his head inwardly.
Truly, a child unteachable!
Such a clear hint for her to leave, she still didn’t understand?
Or was she pretending to be naive, afraid of reprimand?
This hadn’t even escalated, and she was siding with the outsider?
Wu Xiaoyu, seeing Bai Yun lingering in front of him, unavoidably rembered her intoxicated expression and the rather ambiguous sounds, unable to control himself further!
“Bai Yun, your grandfather asked you to leave; why so much nonsense?” Wu Xiaoyu scolded sharply.
Bai Yun, shocked by his harsh tone, couldn’t help but recall that night when Li Qianqian lay on his bed, anger surging within her, slamming the door as she left.
Left inside the room, the two saw Bai Yun’s sudden outburst, feeling sowhat awkward.
Fortunately, Bai Kainan believed Bai Yun was being temperantal and didn’t take it to heart, instead walked over to Wu Xiaoyu.
“Xiaoyu, you young folks do tend to play around, but you need to exercise restraint and be mindful of the occasion, huh?” Bai Kainan gently reminded.
Wu Xiaoyu was confused by this; playing around?
He was treating Bai Yun’s illness!
It was just that this illness was too personal, so it was awkward to explain to Bai Kainan.
How did he turn into soone who was playing around?
As for restraint, where did that co from?
Mindful of the occasion?
Isn’t treating an illness beyond occasions?
Seeing Wu Xiaoyu’s baffled expression, not faking it, Bai Kainan grew curious; weren’t they just… how had they beco so innocent now?
“Though I’m seventy, I’m not an old relic; I’m not bothered by premarital intimacy.
But you do need to exercise restraint, don’t fool around too much!” Bai Kainan couldn’t hold back, speaking plainly.
Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu felt as if struck by lightning; premarital intimacy?
Stunned for a while, he bitterly asked: “Grandpa Bai, you seem… to have misunderstood us.
Bai Yun and I are innocent!”
“Why are you such a coward?
I’m not bothered, yet you’re hiding from ?
I heard the noises just now!” Bai Kainan said sternly.
Noises?
Wu Xiaoyu suddenly recalled Bai Yun’s earlier cries, yes, they did seem too suggestive, leading the old man to misunderstand, thinking they were…?
