Chapter 1017: Cold-hearted CEO's Resentful Butler 30

Speaking of, your little cousin's romance with the Li family's young master can be described as spectacular.

Everyone in the circle knows they're unbreakable, but their tragic love runs deep.

Gu Han: "Tragic love? What does that mean?"

Jiang Qiandu: "Sigh, I don't know who sent something to Shen Yanyu, but inside is evidence that Li Zhuang Yuan bullied Shen Yanyu at school before."

At the time, he happened to be attending the Li family's banquet; Shen Yanyu saw the stuff and slapped him right away, and Li Zhuang Yuan, being a tough guy, to prove he now knows his mistake, smashed a wine cup and stabbed it into his stomach.

Quite a sight, that scene was spectacular.

Gu Han has been busy with his own affairs these days; he never expected Shen Yanyu's romance to blow up this much.

Who did this? Have you found out?

Jin Chen suddenly averted his gaze, knowing nothing.

Jiang Qiandu: "No, and besides, who would want to look into it?"

Gu Han, lost in thought: "Shen Yanyu embarrassed herself at the banquet, throwing away the Gu family's face."

Jiang Qiandu used tweezers to remove the cotton stuck to the wound; Jin Chen let out a muffled groan, instantly drawing Gu Han's attention, leaving no room to think about Shen Yanyu's affairs.

"Be gentle!" Gu Han complained.

"... I didn't use force!" Jiang Qiandu gave Jin Chen a strange look, "You didn't even make a sound when I disinfected earlier."

Having successfully changed the topic, Jin Chen clung tightly to Gu Han, "Sorry, I couldn't hold back."

Meaning he had been restraining himself just now.

Gu Han scolded: "You still say you didn't use force! Be careful."

Jiang Qiandu: "..."

So annoying!

Alright, alright, the bandaged arm wound can't touch water; change the medicine every night.

Jiang Qiandu stood up and pulled out two tubes of ointment from the medicine box.

But Jin Chen's injury is on his right hand.

Thus, looking expectantly at Gu Han, "Trouble, sir."

This is what a boyfriend should do.

The CEO is very happy to help his little wife apply ointment!

Jin Chen isn't oblivious to Gu Han's inner thoughts.

After Jiang Qiandu left, as the injured party, he comfortably leaned on the sofa to slack off, and didn't let Gu Han go to the study.

Gu Han, worried about his injury, sat nobly and coolly on the sofa with a notebook, replying to emails, his expression unconsciously turning stern.

But Jin Chen had nothing to do, watched a movie for a while, then started acting affected again.

Jin Chen's uninjured hand slowly slipped around Gu Han's waist, loosely encircling him, then shifted to lean in, their temples brushing.

"... Don't mess around, I'm working." Gu Han brushed off Jin Chen's hand.

The detestable little wife always wants to solicit affection!

Truly a headache-inducing worry.

Jin Chen's eyebrows slightly lifted, his arm suddenly tightening: "Sir… have you already grown tired of me so quickly?"

Gu Han: "……?"

Nonsense! I certainly haven't.

Wait a moment!

——"Just use money power to shop till you drop—clothes, jewelry, shoes, bags—as long as you buy to your heart's content, everything will be happy."

——"They wholeheartedly serve you as a butler and also as a lover……"

Gu Han realized.

He pulled out a black card and stuffed it into Jin Chen's……collar.

Go buy whatever you like.

Jin Chen felt the cold at his neck, stunned for a moment.

What was the question I just asked?

This means… you're bored? Starting to use money to get rid of me?

The facts prove the idea was right, but applying the wrong formula has serious consequences.

Gu Han watched Jin Chen's smile vanish, then coldly and restrainedly withdrew his hand, lowering his eyes to pull the card from the collar.

No thanks, sir, I'm a bit tired and want to rest.

Having said that, he rose and left without hesitation.

Even his back view exuded dejection!

Gu Han stared in surprise at the card on the table, then turned to look at Jin Chen's departing figure: "Jin Chen! Are you angry?"

His back stiffened slightly, but he said nothing, quickening his pace as he left.

Gu Han inexplicably panicked inside, closed his notebook, and pondered.

Lu Muyu taught him like this!

That move just now, or did he see those CEO friends posting on their friend circles? They said little lovers are adorable!

The CEO flew into a rage.

It must be Lu Muyu talking nonsense!

So he made a phone call.

As soon as the call was connected, Lu Muyu's tone was even more furious than his.

Gu Han, you bastard!

Gu Han, who'd been yelled at for no reason: "……Lu Muyu, did you take stimulants!"

"Your cousin is outrageous—he used his status as the Gu Clan's young master to report my wife for academic fraud to the board of directors."

"My wife avoids unnecessary trouble—she's never made our relationship public. How could a powerless professor stand against your wealthy Gu family? She was fired without even an investigation."

Gu Han jumped to his feet: "What…"

"I don't have time to talk to you now—bottom line, if the Gu family can't handle Shen Yanyu, I don't mind giving you a proper lesson."

The call ended, leaving Gu Han's face ashen with anger.

"Shen Yanyu……"

"What a disgrace! He's about to lose all face for the Gu family!"

Gu Han paced, torn over whether to tell his aunt.

His aunt has always been in poor health, plagued by chronic ailments; if this upset her, who knows what might happen…

Forget it, I can't say it.

Gu Han called Shen Yanyu directly.

"Brother Han!"

The voice on the other end was excited.

"No matter where you are, get to the Gu Zhuang Zhuang Yuan Zhuang Yuan within half an hour, or all your cards will be frozen."

"And bring that sick‑acting boyfriend of yours."

Didn't give Shen Yanyu a chance to explain, just hung up.

Gu Han tossed his phone aside: "Xiao Hong, go get the whip from the basement."

"Yes, sir."

Gu Han pursed his lips and glanced at the hallway leading to the rear garden.

No way—no matter how angry I am, I have to placate my little wife first!

——

This was Gu Han's first time entering the butler's small western-style apartment.

His fingerprint could unlock every door in the estate, so passage was unimpeded.

The living room was clean and tidy, but… it really didn't look like anyone had lived there for a while.

Gu Han pressed his lips, walked to the bedroom, opened the door, and saw Jin Chen asleep.

He was hesitating whether to wait for him to wake before coaxing, when a hoarse, low voice sounded.

"You still have a habit of watching others sleep."

Gu Han retorted, "Nonsense, I'm just exercising my rights as a boyfriend."

He sat beside the bed, feeling glum, "You're definitely angry—why?"

Jin Chen opened his eyes, his uninjured hand reaching out to stroke Gu Han's cheek: "I'm not angry."

"Then why did you suddenly leave? If you don't tell me, I might end up making you angry again."

Gu Han felt the warmth on his cheek and instinctively covered Jin Chen's hand, rubbing his cheek lightly.

"Was it because I didn't handle the black card properly just now?"

"Nobody's ever taught me this—don't be angry."

Jin Chen's heart softened at his words, and he regretted using this method to change the domineering CEO's little quirks.

He pulled him close, laying down, holding him tight, kissing the corner of his mouth: "It's my fault, I got angry for no reason."

Gu Han didn't reject the embrace either, adjusted his lying position, tilted his head back, and asked, "Then tell me."
