He had observed these details earlier, but at the time, worried about Gan Tang, he had not erupted. Seeing her stubbornly refusing to obey again, Huangfu Jue’s anger finally exploded.
The helplessness was that he couldn’t beat her or scold her, the only option was to punish her in this manner.
His tongue was sucking on hers so numbly and sweetly that her lips swelled and ached...
Gan Yuan, panting, gazed at the handsome face so close to her, looking at the crusted cuts on the side of his face, her fist clenched and then relaxed. She raised her hand to push him away and hobbled up the steps.
This sentence was completely yelled out.
Only then did the servants snap back to reality, hastily leading Gan Tang up the stairs, two maids holding Gan Yuan’s arms, carefully helping her up to the second floor, where one immediately pushed over a prepared wheelchair.
Gan Yuan was speechless.
Really? A wheelchair for upstairs and another for downstairs, this guy really treated her like a disabled person.
Ignoring the maids, she quickly crossed the hallway and stopped in front of a door.
"Miss Gan, that’s..."
The door she stopped at led to Huangfu Jue’s master bedroom; without his orders, no one was allowed to enter lightly.
The maid was cut off mid-sentence as Huangfu Jue raised his right hand; she hurriedly shut her mouth, swallowing back the latter half of her sentence.
Gan Yuan forcefully pushed the door open and walked in, while in the butler’s arms, Gan Tang quietly spoke up.
"Uncle Huangfu, don’t worry, she’s just shy."
His gaze shifted back to Gan Tang, and the anger in Huangfu Jue’s heart subsided a bit; he reached out to take the little one into his arms and then stepped towards the master bedroom.
The butler reached out to stop the servants and waved his hand lightly; everyone tiptoed back downstairs.
Hearing the man’s footsteps entering, Gan Yuan immediately walked over and unceremoniously sat down on the sofa near the terrace.
Huangfu Jue, holding Gan Tang, came in and went straight to the bathroom with the little one.
"Xiaotang, let’s go take a bath first."
In the bathroom, water and fresh clothes were already prepared. The man bent down, carefully undressed the little one, and cautiously placed him in the bathtub.
Worried about being too rough and hurting the little one, every move was gentle and attentive. Touched on a ticklish spot, the little one burst into giggles.
"Ha... it’s so ticklish..." The man smiled and reached out, deliberately scratching his waist lightly again; the little one curled up, laughing in a bundle, "Uncle Huangfu... stop... tickles... ha..."
The pair played while washing, and water was everywhere in the bathroom; naturally, Huangfu Jue’s shirt and trousers couldn’t escape getting wet.
The man, however, didn’t mind. With one hand on Gan Tang’s shoulder, he gently washed him with the bath sponge.
The little one’s body was pale and tender, soft everywhere; usually cool and aloof, but utterly adorable when laughing...
Dabbing the foam from the little one’s face with a towel, Huangfu Jue involuntarily brushed his soft cheeks with his fingertips.
"No wonder your mommy always calls you a handsome boy; our Xiaotang really is handsome."
Gan Yuan sat on the sofa, watching Huangfu Jue and Gan Tang through the slightly ajar bathroom door, her hand on her forehead lost in thought.
Concerned that the little one would catch cold, Huangfu Jue didn’t dare to let him wash for too long. After helping Gan Tang up from the bathtub, he carefully dried him with a towel, wrapped his small body in a bath towel, and then placed him on a little stool, taking out the hairdryer to blow dry his hair.
