Moreover, the contrast made him especially charming. He was cold and unapproachable outside, but in fact, he was like a shy boy who blushed when a girl stared at him.

Yan Xi became bolder again. She raised her head and kissed the corner of Gu Shen's mouth.

Before she could look at his expression closely, she felt her body being lifted. Gu Shen carried her and sat up.

He placed one hand on Yan Xi's waist and used the other to smack her butt.

Yan Xi was stunned. She couldn't believe what just happened. He actually spanked her.

Yan Xi felt a hot flash spreading out her body and her face immediately turned red. The place where she was hit felt strangely itchy. "You..." Looking at Gu Shen in a daze, Yan Xi was lost for words.

"Are you done fooling around?" Gu Shen grabbed her waist and said fiercely.

"I..." But why did she have to be spanked if she was being naughty? Yan Xi's face was getting redder and redder like a ripe tomato. She stuttered for a long time without being able to utter a word.

Gu Shen looked at her with a teasing gaze.

"Why did you spank me?"

"Are you going to continue being naughty?" Gu Shen moved his hand threateningly on her butt. Yan Xi immediately crawled to the bedside and looked at him vigilantly.

She was in such a hurry that she fell off the bed. Luckily, the floor was covered by carpet so it didn't hurt.

Why is she doing all kinds of stupid things every day? Gu Shen thought to himself.

He leaned over and picked her up from the floor.

Yan Xi was still in a daze, and her face looked like that of a confused rabbit.

"What's wrong? Did it hurt?"

Gu Shen wanted to reproach her, but his heart ached. "Did you fall and hurt your leg?"

Yan Xi covered her butt and did not dare to speak.

Of course, it is my butt that hurts, Yan Xi thought but she didn't say it. She couldn't ask Gu Shen to help her rub her butt, could she?

Yan Xi said, "My leg hurts. My calf hurts where the wound is."

Gu Shen frowned and quickly looked at her calf. The bandage on the wound was loosen and blood was seeping out of the scab.

"I'll go bandage it myself..."

Gu Shen held her down. "Don't move."



Chapter 132: She Was Really Working Hard

"I know, I know, you don't have to shout," Yan Xi mumbled. 

She shot Gu Shen an angry look behind his back and waved her fists at him. However, Gu Shen glanced at her, she laughed embarrassedly and immediately looked away.

Gu Shen then called Xiaolan to send the first aid kit up.

With her eyes closed, Xiaolan dropped the first aid kid and left in a hurry.

Gu Shen examined Yan Xi's wound carefully and his expression darkened.

He regretted not making Gu An leave the entertainment circle earlier. As for Xia Qing, no one would know about her in the future. 

Gu Shen disinfected the wound with an alcohol-stained cotton swab, then carefully applied the ointment on the wound. He lowered his eyes, the hair on his forehead concealing the anger on his face. "Actually, this wound isn't that serious. You don't have to worry."

Gu Shen shook his head speechlessly. He held Yan Xi's calf and bandaged it again.

"I saw the footage. You met Gu An outside in the square. Why didn't you hide in a shop with her but ran straight to the underground parking lot?"

"We were too scared back then and couldn't think straight." Yan Xi tried her best to convince Gu Shen for Gu An.

"Is that so?" Gu Shen looked at her with a deep gaze. "Isn't it because Gu An didn't want to get photographed?"

Gu Shen probably saw the video in the square when he asked this question. Yan Xi added, "She's a celebrity and has a lot of anti-fans. If she's photographed, she'll definitely be criticized."

Although Gu An could be unbelievably stupid, she was quite cute. "With the Gu family supporting her, she won't have to worry about money."

"That's different!" Yan Xi did not expect Gu Shen to be so determined. He was determined to keep Gu An out of the entertainment industry.

"How is it different? Do you want to risk your life for her again?" There was suppressed anger in his voice, making Yan Xi fall silent for a moment.

Gu Shen took a deep breath and said softly, "Behave yourself tonight and let the doctor check you tomorrow."

"Okay." Yan Xi nodded. She looked obedient, but when Gu Shen turned around, she gently grabbed his sleeve.

"Do you really want Gu An to leave the industry? She has been working hard for her dream for a long time and will soon realize it." Yan Xi looked up and said sadly, "You don't want to lose a future Movie Queen, do you?"

As she spoke, Yan Xi's body wobbled. Gu Shen stabilized her, pursing his lips with a cold expression.

"Gu An has been practicing acting since she was young and has gone through a lot to get into the Film Academy. You've always been very supportive of her decision and even secretly helped her get acting opportunities. When her movie was released, you especially took time outside your schedule to watch it."

Yan Xi sighed softly and continued, "Although Gu An isn't doing very well now, she has been working hard. I know you're worried that she'll get hurt because of her stupidity, but she needs to learn to grow up." 

"Maybe she doesn't want to be the Gu family's little princess but wants to be the Movie Queen who can take charge of everything."

Gu Shen remained silent and looked Yan Xi firmly in the eyes.

Yan Xi was trying all she could to get Gu Shen to believe her. In the book, Gu An indeed worked hard for her dream and eventually won a name for herself.

Since she was young, she had been learning all kinds of talents. In her spare time, she had also been practicing. Even when she was having a high fever, she had never missed a performance class. Gu An should not stop before the light at the end of the tunnel.

"This isn't gonna work on me." Yan Xi frowned. "But why do I keep having the feeling that it was because of me that you asked Gu An to quit the industry?" Yan Xi couldn't tell why, but she couldn't help but have this strange thought. 

"This has nothing to do with you." Gu Shen avoided her gaze. "You don't have to blame yourself for that."

"Then give her another chance, please. This time, she will learn." Yan Xi softened her voice, as if she was acting cute to him. "And didn't you ask me before if there's anything I want to do?

"What I want to do the most now is to watch you stand up and watch Gu An become the Best Actress." Her tone was sincere. "So, Gu Shen, can you fulfill my wish?"
