Глава 145

It wasn't as bad as he just said.

Although she was still young and inexperienced, she had already begun to show signs of feminine beauty. Her innocence and sensuality coexisted, which made her even more alluring.

I don't know why, but because of her resistance, I just blurted out those sharp and sarcastic words... Maybe it was to prove my innocence, or to reassure her.

Chu Ge wiped away the blood flowing from the open wound. He then slowly removed the original medicine and carefully applied the medicine he had obtained himself.

She was doing these things while tightly controlling her emotions.

He wished he could find someone else to do her work, so he wouldn't have to face it or feel the heartache.

But that won't work.

He didn't trust anyone else, and he was even more afraid that the news would leak out.

He comes by himself. Yet it hurts, every time he faces it, and he can only continue to feel the pain.

Extremely careful, I sprinkled the last bit of medicine on it, and only when I saw the bleeding finally stop did I feel relieved.

Then it was slowly bandaged up.

Pull your hand back.

For some reason, I suddenly encountered something.

A cool, icy touch grazed my palm.

Chu Gexing's gaze shifted. He noticed a delicate pink patch slightly downwards beside the wound, which trembled twice as he had accidentally touched it before stopping.

Just a glimpse.

My heart melted in an instant.

The hand that had just caused the trouble suddenly felt inexplicably burning hot.

The heat was spreading, even causing him to break out in a sweat.

The hot sweat mingled with the cold sweat that had broken out from carefully tending to her wounds, creating an indescribable sadness.

It took Chu Gexing a great deal of effort to turn his gaze away.

He cursed himself inwardly: She's just a brat, what's so interesting about her?

He gritted his teeth, turned back to her, and reached out to pull at the front of her clothes.

Fearing that the blood-soaked clothes would stick to her body uncomfortably, she added an extra towel as a pad.

Just be careful to avoid the "minefield" and not touch it.

But deep down, something was still stirring within me.

It looks like something buried under the ice and snow, wanting to sprout.

That's strange.

Finally, everything was done safely.

Looking at the person lying quietly on the bed with her brows furrowed, Chu Gexing reached out to check her breathing. She was breathing. He then touched her wrist; her pulse was also normal.

Chu Gexing let out a long sigh, walked to the washbasin, and slowly washed his blood-stained fingers clean.

The heat in my body wouldn't go away.

He shook his head vigorously. A drop of sweat splashed out with the movement.

Outside, the sounds of birdsong mingled with ambiguous moans, rising and falling, reaching the ears.

Chu Gexing sighed and began to wonder: Is living here a good thing or a bad thing?

However, the Regent issued a martial law order, and he and Tang Leyan were wanted throughout the city. There was no way they could go anywhere else. Only this brothel was less popular. Moreover, the boss behind the scenes had a good relationship with Yan Jieyu, so he would naturally give him some face. Relatively speaking, this place was still considered safe.

If Tang Leyan hadn't been injured, he probably would have left the city immediately. But given her injuries, the longer he delayed, the more dangerous it would be, and he really didn't want to take that risk.

I stood quietly for a while, waiting for the fire inside me to die down.

Chu Ge turned around and glanced at the person on the bed.

That's enough. Let's wait until she's feeling a little better before making a decision.

Su Keren, the proprietress of Diancui Pavilion, was very excited.

Of course, the excitement was only hidden beneath that flamboyant face.

First of all, the legendary "unparalleled" Lord Di actually came to her place.

Secondly, as long as he comes, she can...

Well, who told you to come here? You're like prey that delivered itself to my doorstep, and you're so beautiful... I'd be unwilling to let you take advantage of me.

With a couple of chuckles, Su Keren strode towards the special room.

The man said that no one was allowed to enter the room.

But since she's the boss's wife, she's obviously excluded.

Su Keren gently knocked on the door, listened carefully, but there was no sound inside.

She could only cough once and say softly, "Oh, is the young master not here? Then this holy medicine for stopping bleeding and healing wounds will be..."

Before he could finish speaking, a deep voice said, "Wait a moment."

Su Keren stood firmly on her feet, a smug smile on her face.

When the door opened, Su Keren stepped inside without even looking at the person who opened it.

The man tried to stop her, but Su Keren puffed out her chest as if she hadn't seen anything and went straight for his outstretched arm.

If she encountered other men, they might take the opportunity to take advantage of the landlady's towering breasts.

Unfortunately, today I encountered Chu Ge Xing.

So, Mrs. Su decided to use her towering breasts to take advantage of the handsome man's arm.

Cough cough, well, who told this person to not even glance at her once since he arrived?

Although she is now middle-aged, she was once the most beautiful courtesan in Fengcheng ten years ago.

You must get your revenge for something that hurts your pride!

This is Su Keren's code of conduct.

Chu Gexing quickly withdrew his hand, and Boss Su's plan failed. However, she was not discouraged and stepped forward. The door behind her opened, and Chu Gexing closed it.

"Mr. Su, how did you know... I needed a miraculous medicine to stop bleeding and heal wounds?" Chu Gexing asked slowly.

"Oh, what a strong smell of blood!" Boss Su stretched out her slender hand and blew her nose, pretending to be serious. "This smell is so strong it's almost making me faint. I have to cover my nose every time I pass by here. Do you think I wouldn't guess, young master?"

Chu Gexing smiled lightly: "As expected of Boss Su, you're quite impressive."

"I just hope you don't think I'm meddling in other people's business," Su Keren said with a bright smile, answering cleverly. "How could I..." Chu Gexing replied.

"But..." Glancing sideways at the bed, which was heavily covered by red curtains, and then back at Chu Gexing, even though she was used to seeing such beauty, Su Keren was still... secretly regretting that she hadn't managed to get any advances on his chest. Her eyes darted around, but she covered her mouth coquettishly and giggled, saying, "Young master, you weren't too rough or strong, so... you hurt someone in bed, were you?"

Chapter 191 of "Turning Down the Gentle Land": Bound

Chu Gexing was taken aback, feeling an urge to slap Su Keren to death, but since he needed her help, he could only remain coldly silent.

Seeing his stern face and silence, Su Keren chuckled twice and said, "I thought you looked so delicate and frail, but I never expected you to be so vigorous and strong. It's truly impressive. Speaking of which, my Cui Pavilion has countless beauties. If any one of them can't handle it, would you be interested in choosing a few more to serve you? We have all types, quality and quantity guaranteed, we guarantee you'll be satisfied. Of course, if you prefer..." She puffed out her chest, gave him a flirtatious wink, and then said, "...the mature ones, then..."

"Thanks, but no need," Chu Gexing decisively rejected Su Keren's self-promotion and went straight to the point, asking silently, "Boss lady, what about the hemostatic medicine you mentioned earlier?"

Seeing that he remained unmoved, Su Keren snorted and said somewhat listlessly, "Then, young master, you must also let me know how that person was injured?"

"You don't need to know."

"The curtains are so tightly drawn, could it be that the person in this bed is someone I cannot see..."

Chu Gexing stopped speaking, his brows furrowed, and his eyes suddenly sharpened.

Su Keren felt a chill emanate from the man's alluring eyes and shivered. She coughed and forced herself to say, "Since you insist, young master, then fine, the medicine is here."

She pulled a porcelain bottle from her sleeve and held it in her hand. With a graceful, orchid-like gesture, she handed it to Chu Gexing.

Chu Gexing didn't reach out, but simply said, "Just put it on the table. Thank you."

Seeing how wary this man was of her, Su Keren was furious, but after thinking for a moment, she decided to swallow her anger: "Alright then, as you wish, young master."

He turned and placed the bottle on the table, then glanced around the bed with its red curtains. Suddenly, he noticed half a boot tip peeking out from under the bed curtains—black velvet embroidered with gold thread. It looked expensive, but judging from the style, it seemed to be a men's design.

Seeing her looking around erratically, Chu Gexing quickly stepped aside to block her from the bed and said calmly, "Boss lady, you can leave now."

Su Keren chuckled, "Alright, alright, I understand. I'll be going now, I won't bother you any longer. Haha..." She walked to the door with a smile, then suddenly turned back and said, "Young master, actually, if you like male prostitutes, I can provide them for you too."

Chu Ge's breath hitched. Meanwhile, Su Keren had already nimbly leaped out of the doorway.

Enraged, Chu Gexing swept his sleeve and grabbed the bottle from the table. With a flick of his wrist, the table shattered into pieces with a crack.

Su Keren's incredibly cunning voice came from the window again: "Young master, you have to pay for the damaged items. Of course you have to pay for the damaged items."

When Chu Gexing first heard that sentence, he didn't think much of it. But when the servant from Diancui Pavilion nervously brought over the bill, Chu Gexing fully realized what kind of vampire he had encountered.

To have established a foothold in Fengcheng and remain standing for ten years, Su Keren, the proprietress of Diancui Pavilion, is clearly no ordinary person.

One of her biggest advantages is that she charges exorbitant fees and shows absolutely no mercy.

Countless people have gone bankrupt in this verdant pavilion.

The table that Chu Gexing had smashed with a single blow was prominently listed in the bill.

No wonder the servant quickly replaced the card after Su Keren left; his service was top-notch.

At that time, Chu Gexing was reflecting on his actions.

But……

This was not Shun, nor was Su Keren Yan Jieyu, and quite obviously, Chu Gexing could sense that Su Keren seemed to harbor an inexplicable hostility towards him.

After staring at the bill for quite some time, Tang Leyan woke up.

Staring wide-eyed at the bright red, cheerful tent top for a long time, she finally understood what had happened that had frightened even her, with her strong nerves, to the point of fainting.

Tang Leyan stared blankly at the bed curtains for a while, her vision darkening until it was completely black.

Tang Leyan wanted to get away from this awful place as quickly as possible. But when she realized she couldn't move at all, her panic turned into anger, and then back into panic.

"Chu Gexing!" she cried out through gritted teeth, hearing what sounded like a faint noise outside the bed.

Sure enough, as she cried out, the curtain slowly moved, and someone reached out and lifted the red curtain, revealing a face of unparalleled beauty behind it.
