Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I’m okay. I’ve been meaning to ask you. Is the pistol that Xiao Wuxie gave me… with you?”
Ye Gu looked at her. Because she was only wearing Long Sijue’s s.h.i.+rt, he could see the whip mark through the fabric of the s.h.i.+rt. There was a bandage wrapped around her leg. Her hair seemed messy as well…
When he recalled the way Su Qianxun took a beating for him yesterday, Ye Gu felt a suffocating pain in his chest. At the same time, he felt a surge of warmth. He had lived for almost thirty years, and no one had ever cared about him, let alone take a beating for him. He had been enduring everything by himself.
Ye Gu clenched his fists hard. Only then was he able to prevent himself from charging towards her.
“Ye Gu? Is the gun still with you?” When Su Qianxun saw that he was keeping quiet and merely fixing his gaze on her. She was a little lost because she had no idea what he was thinking about.
As Ye Gu gazed at her naive and innocent black eyes, he sucked in a sharp breath. He really wanted to stab a knife into his own chest. She was such an innocent young woman, and she trusted him so much. But he repaid her by having such dirty thoughts about her.
…..
“It is with me.” Ye Gu wanted to s.h.i.+ft his gaze away, but he was truly unwilling to do so. He just wanted to look at her for as long as possible.
“Give it to me.” Su Qianxun immediately reached out her hand at him.
Ye Gu looked at her fair little hands. He asked worriedly, “What do you want to do with a gun?”
“This is none of your business. The pistol was given to me by Xiao Wuxie. Just give it back to me.” Su Qianxun walked towards him as she continued to reach her small hands out at him.
“Tell me what you want to do with it, or else I will not give it to you.”
A pistol was not a normal item. He was not worried that she would hurt others. Instead, he was worried that she would accidentally hurt herself.
“But…This is something someone else gave me. Why would I need to explain things to you?” Su Qianxun looked at him. She felt a little annoyed.
“I will not give it to you if you don’t tell me.” Ye Gu hardened his heart as he turned around and was about to leave.
Su Qianxun quickly pulled him back, “Don’t, I’ll tell.”
Ye Gu lowered his head and looked at the small hand grabbing his arm. He suddenly turned around and said, “Let me look at the whip mark on your back.”
“Oh, then you must pa.s.s me the gun after you’re done looking at it.” Su Qianxun did not hesitate at all as she turned around, pulled her long hair aside, and pulled her s.h.i.+rt up, revealing a small red whip mark. The young woman was really not vigilant at all when it came to Ye Gu. She said, “It’s really nothing. It is far less serious compared to yours. I’m not feeling pain anymore.”
Su Qianxun pulled her s.h.i.+rt back down the moment she finished speaking. “Quick, give me the gun!”
The young woman was starting to get impatient, and she started looking for the gun herself.
Ye Gu quickly took out the small silver pistol and pa.s.sed it to her. Su Qianxun still felt nervous even after she held the pistol in her hands. Afterall, this was her first time holding a pistol.
“Thank you.”
“Don’t simply unlock the safety of the gun. It would be easy to fire a bullet unintentionally. What do you need a gun for?” Ye Gu frowned.
“Self-defense.” Su Qianxun ran her hand across the metallic pistol. Her chest was also a little heavy. She would be bringing this pistol along when she visited her mother with Su Manni tomorrow in case she needed it.
“Do you know how to use it?” Ye Gu asked.
Su Qianxun lifted her head and looked at him. She shook her head. How could she possibly know how to use a pistol! That person had only taught her how to drive.
That person used a pistol too, but he was reluctant to teach her how to use a pistol. He was also concerned that she would hurt herself in the process of learning how to use a pistol as well.
“I will look for you at the kennel to teach you some simple steps tonight,” Ye Gu said and turned to leave.”
Su Qianxun stared after him and smiled. She knew that Ye Gu would not forsake her.
