Chapter 142: Brother of Huai ’an



Chapter 142

Shen Tang also wanted to go with her, but Gu Huaian wouldn\'t allow it.

In his words, since the hospital room was a suite, it was more than enough for two people to stay there comfortably.

Due to Gu Huaian\'s mind-reading ability still being active, Shen Tang felt a bit uncomfortable, as if she were naked.

Gu Huaian seemed to be in pain, gasping for breath.

Shen Tang became nervous and asked, "What\'s wrong? Should I call a doctor for you?"

"It\'s nothing, just a bit of pain from the wound." Gu Huaian\'s brows furrowed, and he spoke with a sense of loss. "It\'s alright, you can go, I\'ll be fine on my own."

Shen Tang: "..."

Here it comes again. This person really knows how to manipulate her.

She sighed and said, "I haven\'t brought any change of clothes."

Gu Huaian hurriedly said, "I\'ll have someone bring them for you."

Seeing Gu Huaian take out his phone, Shen Tang squinted her eyes and asked, "What happened to your previous phone?"

"It\'s broken, what\'s wrong?"

Shen Tang stroked her chin and recounted the details of the call she received earlier. "How do you think they obtained my phone number?"

"Privacy breaches are rampant nowadays, they might have gotten it from somewhere. Don\'t worry, I\'ll have someone look into it."

"By the way, was it Master Xie who messaged me about you taking a shower?" Shen Tang remembered how she misunderstood and felt upset for a long time because of that one sentence.

"No, I hadn\'t met him at that time. That person was another friend of mine, but he was just here for a visit and has already gone back."

"Oh, have you found the master yet?"

Gu Huaian sighed, unable to hide his disappointment. "Not yet, but I\'ve got some leads."

"It\'s alright, no need to rush. The whereabouts of these highly skilled individuals are usually elusive."

After taking a shower, Shen Tang\'s phone was also brought to her.

She opened it and saw over 99 WeChat messages.

She flipped through them and was surprised to find that the person who messaged her the most was Zhou Jin, also known as Second Young Master Zhou Jin, from being angry and complaining at first, to later expressing concern.

Shen Tang felt somewhat bewildered.

Gu Huaian couldn\'t hold back any longer and asked cautiously, "Tangtang, who is Zhou Jin?"

Shen Tang furrowed her brows. "You\'ve eavesdropped on my thoughts again."

"Sorry, but it\'s not something I can control..." Gu Huaian didn\'t want this ability either; it was too extraordinary.

Suddenly, Shen Tang regretted staying here. If this issue couldn\'t be resolved, she wouldn\'t be able to get along with Gu Huaian without any reservations.

As soon as this thought arose, Gu Huaian naturally heard it. He couldn\'t help but feel remorseful for asking earlier.

However, he really cared about who this Second Young Master Zhou Jin was...

Gu Huaian cautiously looked at Shen Tang, not knowing if she would be angry.

Shen Tang felt somewhat helpless and patiently explained, "It\'s nothing, just one of my students. I promised his mother to tutor him for a month, but then you had an accident..."

"So he\'s a student..." Gu Huaian felt relieved; he should be just a teenager, a little brat who posed no threat.

Shen Tang didn\'t know what Gu Huaian was thinking, and she began to reply to the messages one by one.

Shen Tang felt apologetic when Elder Sister Liang greeted her with concern, as she had disappeared after only tutoring for a day, which seemed somewhat irresponsible.

After Shen Tang explained sincerely, she thought the matter would be settled. However, to her surprise, Elder Sister Liang said she could continue tutoring when Shen Tang returned.

Shen Tang was thrilled!

Yes! Her money was still there!

She had a good night\'s sleep.

The next day, Shen Tang slept until the sun was high in the sky before getting up.

When she woke up, Gu Qingan had already been there for a while, sitting on the sofa wearing glasses and working.

Gu Huaian was also sitting by the bedside, working on something.

Shen Tang secretly admired them. These siblings were truly hardworking, starting their day so early.

She sat down next to Gu Huaian and asked, "How do you feel today? Did the doctor change your medication?"

Gu Huaian took off his glasses and replied, "Not bad, I feel much better."

Shen Tang observed carefully. The wound still looked quite terrifying.

Although Gu Huaian\'s injuries seemed severe, they were actually not too bad. However, he couldn\'t move around for the time being and had to rest in bed.

As a result, the search for the master had to be postponed.

After quietly chatting for a while, Gu Huaian suddenly tried to get up with great effort.

Shen Tang forcefully pressed him back onto the bed and scolded, "Are you trying to kill yourself?"

"I can do it."

"What can you do? You, as a patient, have no right to speak. You can only do it when the doctor says so." Shen Tang asserted.

Gu Qingan, who was peeling an apple nearby, felt a bit redundant. "Are you two acting in a drama here?"

Shen Tang reached out and hugged her arm.

"Help! Help!"

"It\'s fine, I\'m watching. Sister, don\'t you think he\'s being stubborn? Even though he\'s injured like that, he acts as if the world would stop without him."

"Yes, but what do you mean by \'master\'?" Elder Sister Liang asked first. "By the way, how are Anran and Wuyang doing? Your parents don\'t know about this, right?"

"No, they don\'t know. I\'m afraid they would worry."

Everyone was intelligent, and seeing that Gu Huaian didn\'t want to talk about it, Gu Qingan didn\'t pursue it either.

Everyone has their privacy, and she didn\'t like prying into other people\'s secrets.

For her, as long as her family was safe, healthy, and well, everything else didn\'t matter.

Just as she finished peeling an apple, Xie Xuan\'s chattering voice resounded.

It could be said that her voice arrived before she did.

"Huaian Brother~"

Yes, Xie Xuan still called Gu Huaian that way.

Shen Tang also followed suit and whispered, "Huaian Brother~"

Gu Huaian: "..."

"Do you think I sound good?"

"Sounds good."

"Hmph, I don\'t believe you."

Xie Xuan entered cheerfully, hopping and skipping in her high heels, looking very joyful.

"What\'s the matter? Did you win the lottery?"

Xie Xuan paused for a moment. "No."

"Then why are you so happy?"

Xie Xuan rolled her eyes. "Are you that shallow? Must I win the lottery to be happy?"

"Yes, I am just an ordinary person," Xie Xuan sighed.

Shen Tang remained silent.

"Is money the only thing in your life?" Xie Xuan asked.

"No," Shen Tang replied.

Just as Xie Xuan was about to say something, Shen Tang continued, "I don\'t even have money in my life."

Xie Xuan blinked in disbelief and covered her mouth, "Doesn\'t Gu Huaian give you any money to spend?"

Suddenly, a thought struck her, and her eyes lit up. "How about this? I\'ll give you money, and you give me Gu Huaian. How does that sound?"

Shen Tang rubbed his chin. "How much are you offering?"

Gu Huaian interjected, "..."

Xie Xuan raised a finger, pondered for a moment, and then extended another finger, crossing the two fingers to form a "ten" shape.

Shen Tang exclaimed with excitement, "Ten billion? Okay, deal! Money on one hand, goods on the other."

Xie Xuan was taken aback. "???"

Gu Huaian said, "Tang Tang..."

He was still there. How could she do this in front of him?

Shen Tang lightly tapped her head. "Oh right, Xuan Xuan, let\'s go out and talk?"

Xie Xuan was frightened by Shen Tang\'s enthusiasm. Seeing Shen Tang reaching out to pull her, she took a few steps back in alarm. "Wait, are you serious? Don\'t you love Gu Huaian very much? You\'re really going to sell him?"

"But I want money more. How much are you giving me for ten billion?" Shen Tang asked.

Xie Xuan pursed her lips. "Can we negotiate?"

"Sure."

"A hundred thousand."

"How much?"

"A hundred thousand."

Shen Tang touched his ear. He suspected he misheard.

You\'re a wealthy young lady. Even one of your bags costs more than a hundred thousand. Now, you\'re offering such a small amount to buy a person.

Shen Tang cautiously asked, "May I ask if your family has gone bankrupt?"

"It\'s your family that has gone bankrupt!"

"Then why are you offering so little?"

After hesitating for a long time, Xie Xuan finally said, "Yesterday, when I went home, my brother cut off my living expenses. I only have a hundred thousand left."

Shen Tang: "..."

"Am I the kind of person who sells her husband? Gu Huaian and I are truly in love. I won\'t sell him for any amount of money. Give up!"

Everyone present: "..."

If it weren\'t for what you said earlier, they might have actually believed it.
