Chapter 360: Chapter 365:1 Won’t Let You Go Back

Yesterday, Beiming Han was drugged by Long Xuxu. How could Long Xuxu have been so sure that Beiming Han would go to the Shengming Hotel?

Someone must have tipped her off, or perhaps, this was all a setup by Long Xuxu.

Qu Annai is merely a pawn in her game.

This reminded Gu Qingxin of the incident with the shirt last time. Likely, Qu Annai blabbed and led to the public revelation by Beiming Shasha.

Bai Qianqian and her had the same idea. Qu Annai had changed a lot lately. Although she was selfish before, she wasn’t malicious, but now she was completely different.

That evening, Gu Qingxin decided to go home to accompany her mother, but Beiming Han immediately rejected her proposal.

“Why? My mom fainted today! I’m not comfortable leaving her home alone!” Gu Qingxin sat next to Beiming Han, trying to reason with him.

“We can hire a maid for her.” Beiming Han remained unmoved, his expression becoming increasingly stern.

“Given our family’s situation, how can we afford to hire a maid? Please, just for one night, I swear I’ll only go home for one night.” Gu Qingxin pleaded, shaking his arm.

“No! This is non-negotiable! I’ll arrange for a maid to care for her.” Beiming Han coldly refused, pulling his arm away from her grip and resumed his work.

“That’s even worse. If you suddenly send over a maid, what will my mom think?” Gu Qingxin clung to his arm tightly, preventing him from working.

“Anyway… I’m not letting you go back!”

Gu Qingxin resorted to sitting on his lap, begging and coaxing him, trying all sorts of things.

“Only for tonight, and you must not bring this up again!” Beiming Han reached out to grasp her arms.

“Really! You’re really okay with this! Thank you.” Gu Qingxin, thrilled, planted a kiss on his face.

After talking so much, her throat started to hurt again.

Beiming Han watched as her face changed slightly, held her tightly and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong? Do you feel unwell?”

“I’m fine.” Gu Qingxin shook her head. After spending so much time together, she had found some ways to get along with him. He wasn’t as indifferent as he seemed.

Beiming Han drove Gu Qingxin back to her small apartment. He kissed her for a long time in the car before letting her leave.

Gu Qingxin looked at her swollen lips in the mirror, a result of his kissing. She planned to rush to the bathroom the moment she got home to rinse her face, so her mother wouldn’t notice.

Beiming Han watched her figure disappear into the entrance of the apartment complex, remaining in the car for a long time before leaving.

When Gu Qingxin got home, Lin Yin was resting in her bedroom. She quickly rushed to the bathroom, cleaning herself up thoroughly to ensure any changes she’d undergone went unnoticed by her mother.

She then opened the door to Lin Yin’s room, and called out, “Mom.”

“Qingxin, you’re back.” Lin Yin sat up.

“Mom, what do you feel like eating tonight? I can cook it,” said Gu Qingxin, sitting at the bedside and holding her mother’s hand.

“Anything will do.” Lin Yin’s face still looked quite pallid.

“I’ll make some porridge then. Mom, we should stop running the flower shop. I can work to earn money,” said Gu Qingxin, fearing her mother’s condition might worsen.

“How can that be? You should focus on your studies. Understood? I heard Air Ling got injured trying to save you today?”

Oh… yes, he… how is he doing?” Gu Qingxin stammered.
