Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 826: You Can’t Escape 6

Her smile was more captivating than the moon, making it hard for the man to hold himself back.

Gu Beicheng took a deep breath where Xia Yinian couldn’t see, and also shifted his gaze.

"Is there anything else besides alchemy?"

His voice was strained, but Xia Yinian didn’t know.

"Besides alchemy?" Xia Yinian turned her head to glance at Gu Beicheng again.

Even though the light was not sufficient, she still noticed a slight vein popping on his temple.

"Master, are you okay?" The girl half sat up, reached out her small hand, and touched the man’s forehead.

"I’m fine." When Gu Beicheng met her gaze, he appeared unaffected again.

"Oh." Xia Yinian nodded and lay down once more.

His body temperature was normal, maybe she was mistaken.

"You still haven’t answered my question." Gu Beicheng cleared his throat lightly and spoke calmly.

He was trying to divert his willpower, unsure if it would work. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Xia Yinian looked at the sky and pursed her lips, "Besides alchemy, nothing else comes to mind."

"Nothing else comes to mind?" Gu Beicheng turned his head to look at her, frowning, "Is it that you’re too embarrassed to confess that you like me?"

Sure enough, his attempt to divert his willpower failed.

Xia Yinian half-squinted her eyes, glancing at the man beside her.

"Absolutely not."

"I’m so heartbroken." The man mimicked the girl and pursed his lips.

"Master, you look so ugly like this!" Xia Yinian extended her long fingers, rubbing at the corner of Gu Beicheng’s mouth.

"Honestly, is it because you’re afraid of being disliked due to your looks, so you like to wear this mask?"

Xia Yinian’s fingers were still on the Human Skin Mask, genuinely wanting to tear it off.

But she surely wouldn’t dare, a powerful man like Mr. Ye wearing a Human Skin Mask isn’t for hiding ugliness.

Perhaps one mask is an identity.

Was she actually so reckless to want to know so much?

"You’re the first girl to call me ugly." Gu Beicheng slightly curled his lips, "Why don’t you tell me what kind of man you like? I’ll become one."

"Master isn’t ugly, how could master be ugly?" Xia Yinian said with a smile.

If he were Uncle, he’d still be the most handsome man under the heavens.

"Let’s not discuss men, I’m not interested at the moment." The girl withdrew her hand and checked the time on her phone.

"It’s almost eleven, I need to go back to sleep, there’s lots to do tomorrow."

"Alright, I’ll take you back." Suddenly the man pulled the girl up to stand, wrapping his arm around her waist.

Before Xia Yinian could react, the two of them were moving through the forest together.

Feeling the scenery speeding by, Xia Yinian didn’t even think to refuse.

Master really is a reclusive expert, simply taking her around, she thought she’d traveled through time.

With a master like this, what more could one ask for?

"By the way, Master, if I want to find you, where should I go?" The girl in his arms softly asked.

"Does Nian Nian miss me?" Gu Beicheng lowered his head to glance at her.

"Not really, but maybe a bit. Lately, I’ve been having bad luck and often run into danger. Whenever I have free time, I want to train more."

"I’m just worried about some moves that I can’t remember or can’t execute alone."
