Be Gentle, My Master
Chapter 1207
Guisu still sat quietly, sitting upright.
After a moment of silence, he spoke indifferently, “I am now Sima Liuyue’s bodyguard.”
So, he wasn’t here to cause trouble…
Baili Xia breathed a sigh of relief.
But, for no apparent reason, various images flashed through her mind, as if, some scenes were flitting across her thoughts…
She imagined Guisu following Sima Liuyue, though she didn’t know why she thought of such things.
But, she always felt…
there was something odd about it.
“When did this happen? How long have you been with her?”
She wasn’t in a hurry to go upstairs to find Zimo anymore; instead, she sat down on the small sofa next to him, staring at his still desolate face.
This was the most secluded corner of the lobby, a place most people wouldn’t notice.
However, Guisu exuded a chilling aura that anyone passing by could feel, making it hard not to be noticed.
Putting down her small bag that she carried with her, Baili Xia turned to look at Guisu: “I’m talking to you.”
Guisu glanced at her, looking a bit impatient, but still responded.
“After Miss Sima had an incident, the Sima Family hired a new batch of bodyguards for her.”
Baili Xia smiled, finally feeling more at ease.
Guisu willingly finding a proper job was much better than being ill-employed in unsavory places like underground betting rings.
Although both bodyguards and enforcers needed to use force, the nature of the jobs was entirely different.
Also, even though the sight of Guisu and Sima Liuyue together seemed really strange.
But, if he is doing well, that is good enough.
“Right, your hand…” Baili Xia’s gaze couldn’t resist drifting towards his right hand.
Guisu instinctively hid his right hand, and Baili Xia hurriedly explained: “I didn’t mean anything by it, I just wanted… wanted to give you acupuncture.”
This action of his made it clear to her; his right hand still hadn’t healed.
But, Guisu was indeed impressive, that even with an unhealed right hand, he could stand out among many candidates just using his left hand.
Particularly, being able to follow Sima Liuyue so quickly, one could imagine how capable he was.
Such a person, if his right hand could also heal, that would be perfect!
“I’ve learned a new acupuncture technique with my master, which is very effective for connecting tendons and veins, it might really work.”
“No need.” Although she could see her sincerity, Guisu still did not plan to accept her kindness.
He had long given up on his right hand.
“Consider it repaying the favor of those few bowls of noodles then, won’t you let me practice?”
Guisu’s eyes faltered, looking down at her with a peculiar expression: “You…
really are shameless!”
“…” Baili Xia blinked her eyes, thought for a moment, and then suddenly remembered that the favor for those bowls of noodles had already been repaid.
That day at the entrance of the betting ring, she asked him to let go of everything and not to intervene, and he really did it.
The price was, the favor of those few bowls of noodles was gone, and she could no longer use him to practice her acupuncture.
Although, she said this also as an excuse to treat him, for his own good.
But now, Guisu…
doesn’t seem angry either!
“Why call me shameless, isn’t it fair and just to repay debts? Or is one not supposed to repay favors?”
Baili Xia decided to break the pot to break free, pretending she had already forgotten about that day’s events.
“…” Now, it was Guisu’s turn to be at a loss for words.
Is this girl really so forgetful that she can’t even remember her own actions and words?
Or was she simply playing dumb?
