Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 39 - His Face Drained of Color
Chapter 39: Chapter 39 His Face Drained of Color
Gu Annan walked to the bathroom doorway, where it was completely quiet without even the slightest sound of water.
“Lu Wanwan, I’m giving you one minute to come out!”
The firm tone failed to elicit any reaction from inside. He immediately opened the door and quickly stepped inside.
The surface of the bathtub water was covered with bubbles, and Lu Wanwan had her eyes closed, her body submerged under the water. Only her pale neck as white as jade was visible above the bubbles, her head resting on a pillow.
Her scattered, damp hair obscured half her face, the stark contrast between black and white intensified the visual impact.
A sudden, inexplicable sense of panic surged in Gu Annan’s heart. He saw the scene only once, but his face almost drained of blood, and his fingers turned ice-cold.

Without a moment’s hesitation, he took large strides forward and lifted her from the water. The water sounded with a whoosh, and the bubble-studded water cascaded down from her body like a waterfall.
When Lu Wanwan was lifted out of the water, she lost buoyancy, feeling particularly heavy in that instant.
Drowsy, before her feet touched the ground, she vaguely felt she was being held.
A towel was quickly wrapped around her body, alleviating the chill of emerging from the water.
Gu Annan carried her to the bed, and Aunt Li, who had rushed over, was also startled as she came in.
“Get a doctor!” he roared, his voice hoarse and trembling.
Aunt Li had never seen the young master like this; she quickly nodded and went to call the Gu Family’s doctor.
Lu Wanwan moved slightly, still unclear about what had happened.
At the beginning of her bath, it was quite comfortable, but gradually she felt the comfortable warmth penetrating every pore, and darkness started clouding her vision.
She felt like she was suffocating. Moreover, her dizziness had not gone away, and she was weak in her limbs. As darkness fell over her vision, she had no strength to get up and gradually lost consciousness.
It wasn’t until she was lifted from the water that she started to come around drowsily, as if from a dream.
Rapid footsteps still echoed around her; finally, she opened her eyes, staring blankly at the face watching her intently, the cold, pale handsome features, not knowing whether the droplets on his brow were sweat or steam trickling down his face.
Gu Annan?
She lowered her head and saw that her body was still wet with bubbles, just covered with a towel, her neck leaning against his arm.
Finally reacting, Lu Wanwan grabbed the towel on her chest and immediately sat up, moving back, “What, what happened?”
Aunt Li had just brought a cup of hot tea in, seeing Lu Wanwan sit up as if nothing was wrong, wary as if facing a great enemy while looking at her own young master.
“Nothing. But if you want to die, don’t die in my house,” Gu Annan stood up, towering over her with a gaze that had turned dark again.
His gaze darkened, his thin lips forming a cold, hard line, his sharply defined features making him appear especially indifferent.
Lu Wanwan felt particularly wronged inside. When had she wanted to die?
Watched as the person left the room without turning back, with a forceful slam of the door.
Aunt Li brought the cup of hot tea up, “Miss Lu, please drink some hot water. Did you feel unwell earlier?”
Lu Wanwan accepted the tea cup, politely saying, “Thank you. I just felt out of breath and didn’t have the strength to stand up while taking a bath earlier, and I fainted.”
“It’s alright then. Now Miss Lu, you should rinse off the foam on your body, change your clothes, and go apologize to the young master. He saved you,” Aunt Li handed over a bathrobe, “We don’t have suitable women’s clothing for you right now, please make do with this.”
