Chapter 437: Chapter 299: The Spy War Between Changsheng and Zhou Mu
Last night, after the battle with the Futu Demoness, everyone by Gu Changsheng’s side was injured except for her who was well protected, just as Little Monk Bu Jie had predicted, suffering only a minor scratch no bigger than a fingernail.
Already feeling guilty, Gu Changsheng beca even more worried upon seeing Si Xi’s unrelieved frown.
Yesterday, after she finished the surgery on Tan Nv, she had taken their pulses—could it be that she had overlooked sothing and Si Xi was still hiding so illness?
Upon hearing his wife’s question, Si Xi quickly adjusted his expression and hastily explained, waving his hands, “Wife, I’m fine, I’m fine, don’t worry, the minor internal injury I had, after taking the dicine you prescribed for , has already improved a lot.”
Gu Changsheng, hearing this, didn’t believe it at all, “If it’s improved, why do you still look so worried? You must have hurt sowhere else, why won’t you tell ?”
As she spoke, Gu Changsheng stood up and reached out to check on Si Xi.
Seeing this, Si Xi struggled and refused to cooperate, making a bitter face as he said, “Wife, I’m really fine! Don’t worry!”
“How can you be fine? Did the old Futu Demoness still injure you sowhere else?” Gu Changsheng approached again, nervously, “There should be no secrets between a doctor and a patient, what’s there to be embarrassed about? If you’re hurt sowhere tell ! Although pulse diagnosis can reveal internal conditions, if you have any external injuries, I won’t be able to tell if you don’t let know!”
“Xiao Si Xi, hiding your sickness will only make it worse, you need to cooperate with !”
Gu Changsheng tirelessly persuaded him with patience.
Upon hearing her words, Si Xi’s face showed even greater distress and he hesitated, not knowing how to speak up.
Seeing his persistent refusal to let her check, and observing his complexion once more, Gu Changsheng’s suspicions grew.
Could it be that he was not injured elsewhere?
“Xiao Si Xi, are you hiding sothing from ?” Gu Changsheng narrowed her phoenix eyes, her eyebrows slightly raised as she looked at Si Xi, her voice carrying a certain sharpness.
At her words, Si Xi imdiately stepped back, his face filled with panic.
Seeing this, Gu Changsheng pretty much knew she had guessed correctly!
This innocent child, Xiao Si Xi, was actually hiding sothing from her!
“No! I’m not hiding anything from you, really!” Si Xi explained in panic.
Gu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed dangerously, pretending to be angry, she said, “Xiao Si Xi, your behavior is the very definition of ‘the more you try to hide, the more you reveal.’ Speak up, what exactly are you hiding from that’s making you act so guilty!”
Such an innocent child as Xiao Si Xi was truly not suited for lying!
Just look at that guilty face of his, it’s so blatantly obvious—it might as well be written on his forehead in big letters: I’m Lying!
If Gu Changsheng believed him, she’d be the ghost!
Realizing there was no escape, Si Xi’s face looked utterly disconsolate, his gaze shifting uneasily.
“Xiao Si Xi, rember that honesty results in leniency, while resistance will rit severity. Make your choice!” Gu Changsheng shrugged indifferently, looking as if it made no difference to her whether he spoke or not.
If she had pressed him with questions step by step, Si Xi wouldn’t have found it strange, but her casual, nonchalant deanor imdiately made him anxious. He took a step forward and quickly said, “Wife, it’s not that Si Xi is hiding anything from you, it’s just that I don’t know what to do! Lord Yuan Bao sent a ssage that the master has summoned , and I feel that it must be related to you. I’ve been indecisive, if the master asks sothing, I don’t know how to respond.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng suddenly realized the situation.
So it was that evildoer Zhou Mu who had sothing and summoned her Xiao Si Xi!
But that sa evildoer was just standing on her rooftop last night like a statue for half the night, so why was he interrogating soone by her side today?
What’s all this about?
She knew that having several people sent by the evildoer to “protect” her, while claiming it was for her safety, was sowhat protective but also a bit self-serving!
And now, with several pairs of big eyes watching her every move, all he needed was to summon soone and ask a few questions, and it’s likely that even the color and style of her underwear would be revealed!
Damn it, what kind of situation is this? This is unacceptable!
Does she have no privacy left in her life?
No way! Absolutely not! Distance creates beauty, but if she’s completely transparent to the evildoer, where’s the mystery in that? That defeats the whole purpose!
