Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 992: With You Always (137)

"Okay."

"Let’s split up, you go quickly, I’ll go soon as well. Oh, give me my phone."

After Long Yubei gave her the phone, he left. Gu Lili instructed Ah Wun, "Ah Wun, he is a very important person to me, take good care of him."

"Master, don’t worry, I will take good care of him."

"Alright, I’m going to investigate who committed the crime, I’ll leave this place to you."

Ah Wun nodded, "Master, you go ahead."

After Gu Lili left, only Ah Wun and the unconscious Gu Xichen remained in the room.

Seeing his right hand wrapped in thick cotton strips, and his once gentle and elegant face now ashen, recalling how he came to see her before his business trip, Ah Wun felt a pang in her nose. A perfectly good person almost just disappeared...

She replaced the nearly empty medication bottle for him.

After almost an hour had passed, when the large bottle of solution had finally dripped completely, she carefully removed the needle from the back of his left hand.

At that moment, Gu Xichen gradually woke up.

Seeing him open his eyes, Ah Wun was both surprised and delighted, "Xichen, you’re awake?"

"Ah Wun... where am I?"

"You’re at Qin Garden, do you know that you were shot?" Ah Wun tightly held his left hand, "Thank goodness you’re not in any life-threatening danger. I was terrified when I heard you were unconscious after the incident."

Gu Xichen’s voice was very faint, and he seemed very weak, "I’m fine..."

"My Master has returned and is investigating the person responsible for you." Seeing his brows knit in pain, Ah Wun leaned slightly forward and said, "With so many bullet wounds on you, it even pains me to look at. Let me talk to you about those strange rumors, to divert your attention, alright?"

"Can you talk about your Master’s past?"

She let go of his hand and lay sideways next to him, her voice soft, "Ordinarily, subordinates shouldn’t talk about their Master’s affairs, but since my Master said you’re important to her, I’ll tell you what I can share. Her mother, Dai Ji, originally loved the Heavenly King’s father, Jun Xian’an, but was forced to marry her father against her will, leading to frequent quarrels between the couple. Most of the time, it was Dai Ji picking fights for no reason. When Immortal Jun Yu was conceived, Dai Ji wanted to terminate the pregnancy, but her father stopped her. Shortly after giving birth to Immortal Jun Yu, her father passed away. At that time, there were many suspicions about the murderer, but my Master believed it was Jun Xian’an’s doing, and now it’s confirmed. The chilling part is that Dai Ji also played a part in it."

"After her father’s death, Dai Ji directly abandoned the months-old Immortal Jun Yu. When my Master was young, her mana surpassed her peers by far. Jun Xian’an tried several times to kill both her and Immortal Jun Yu but didn’t succeed. I heard all of this from my Master. By the time I met her, she was over a hundred thousand years old, and she already had many enemies back then. Mainly because everyone in the Five Realms knew that the Heavenly King wanted her and her brother dead. With her father gone and no family to rely on, everyone wanted to bully them."

"She is extraordinarily beautiful; doesn’t she have many suitors and admirers?" Gu Xichen asked. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Ah Wun smiled gently and then shook her head, "Maybe there are, but I’ve never heard of anyone confessing to my Master. Most don’t dare, fearing it would end badly. Although my Master is a woman, many still fear her."
