Chu Yichen carried Li An’an out of the car. She was shivering from the cold, Chu Yichen’s suit jacket had been thrown over her. The man looked as if he had been fished out of the water. His hair and clothes were thoroughly soaked.
The two of them got out of the car.
Butler Chu had received the news in advance and was waiting with an umbrella. However, the rain was too heavy, and he himself was drenched as soon as he stepped out of the villa. Nevertheless, he held an umbrella over the two of them.
Chu Yichen carried Li An’an into the villa, leaving a trail of water on the ground.
“The bath water has been prepared. We’ll let Li An’an bathe herself. Young Master, you should soak in warm water too.”
Chu Yichen carried Li An’an back to his bedroom without saying a word.
The white bathtub that sat in the huge bathroom was already filled with warm water. Li An’an was shivering from the cold. He tore off her dress. Li An’an did not object. After stripping her, he threw her into the water.
Li An’an choked as she took in a mouthful of bath water, but she didn’t dare to complain. Obviously, he was angry.
Chu Yichen strode out of the bathroom, slammed the door shut and went to another room to take a bath. He had expended much energy to rescue her in the sea. Settling score would have to wait till tomorrow.
Butler Chu stood outside with his clothes. The bodyguards had already told him in detail what had happened. The CEO had actually jumped into the sea in the raging storm to rescue Li An’an.
To be honest, he disapproved of it. In his heart, Young Master was most important. But he had already done it. What else could he say? He went back downstairs to the kitchen. “Is the ginger soup ready?” “It’s ready.”
“Serve a bowl up. Young Master will drink it after his shower” Butler Chu thought for a moment and added, “Serve a bowl of it to Li An’an too.” He was rather angry, but if she were to fall sick, Young Master would be the one worrying.
Chu Yichen soaked in the bathtub for about half an hour to relax his stiff muscles before getting up. He dried himself, put on his bathrobe, opened the bathroom door, and walked out.
It was still storming, but the room did not feel cold at all. He took the ginger soup from Butler Chu and drank it. He then used a hairdryer to dry his hair. He had a company to run and could not afford to fall sick.
“Young Master, you shouldn’t have jumped into the sea to save her. You could have let the bodyguards do it. Your safety concerns the entire Chu family. You have a heavy responsibility to bear! Sir and Madam will reprimand you if they find out.
“Then don’t tell them.” Chu Yichen recalled the scene where he saw Li An’an falling into the sea. His heart almost stopped and his body turned cold. When the yacht approached her location, he had jumped in without hesitation. Now that he thought about it, he got lucky, but it was extremely dangerous. However, the next time he encountered such a situation, he would probably do the same! After all, he was a man.
“CEO, because of the storm, we may be trapped here for a few days! Moreover, the signal tower has been damaged and we can’t make contact with anyone for the time being.”
Chu Yichen frowned and looked a little tired. “It’s okay. The storm will blow over the day after tomorrow at most. Long Ting has the ability to hold on for a few days at the company!”
“Young Master, it’s late, you should rest.” Seeing that Chu Yichen was tired, Butler Chu bowed and left.
This was the guest room. Li An’an was currently staying in Young Master’s room. However he didn’t suggest for the young master to return to his own room. He was dissatisfied with Li An’an. It’s also a punishment for her, he thought to himself.
The door next door was pushed open. Li An’an stood at the doorway of the bedroom in an ill-fitting white shirt.
She wondered if she should apologize to Chu Yichen, but she felt a little dizzy. Coupled with her guilty conscience, she quickly returned to her room and drank the ginger soup that the servant had brought over. Then, she crawled into the blanket, wrapped herself tightly in it and went to sleep..
