Gu An: âYouâve misunderstood.â
The burly man looked at Gu Anâs face and said, âMiracle Doctor An really looks like an old friend. If Miracle Doctor An was a woman, you would look even more like that old friend. Not to mention, Miracle Doctor Anâs hands are really smooth, like a womanâs.â
As he said this, he even rubbed Gu Anâs hands a few times.
Gu Anâs expression changed. âDonât go too far.â
The burly man laughed. âCould it be that Miracle Doctor An is not the least bit curious about the old friend I mentioned?â
Gu Anâs expression was cold. âIt has nothing to do with me.â
A gust of wind blew past, and a corner of Su Yanâs veil blew up.
This instant still made Mei Jiang furrow her brows.
Suddenly, her expression changed, and she shouted, âBrother Hei, somethingâs wrong.â
The burly man who had long thought that Gu An was up to something changed his expression. He exerted strength into his hand and tried to snatch the jade box back.
Gu An was not willing to be outdone. The two of them were in a stalemate.
The burly man was surprised that Gu Anâs skills were not weak. His gaze became more serious.
Mei Jiangâs gaze turned to Su Yan. She was prepared to force Gu An into submission by taking her hostage.
Su Yan hurriedly retreated, but she could not escape Mei Jiangâs grasp.
Gu An saw the situation and shouted, âSu Yan.â
But she could not free her hand to save Su Yan.
Mei Jiang smiled sinisterly, âYou dared to lie to me? Youâre courting death!â
Su Yan looked at the palm in front of her in horror.
A black shadow suddenly appeared and stood in front of Su Yan.
The sword in his hand flashed with a silver light.
Mei Jiang had no choice but to give up on Su Yan and turn in a different direction.
However, her wrist was still cut. If she had been a little slower just now, her hand would have been crippled.
For those in the path of medicine, an injury to the hand was equivalent to a death sentence.
Mei Jiangâs eyes were filled with anger as she glared at the person who had come.
Su Yan heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly moved closer to An Yi to hide.
An Yi glanced at Su Yan behind him and asked coldly, âIs the Princess Consort alright?â
Su Yan shook her head to indicate that she was fine.
However, the two people opposite them turned pale with fright.
Princess Consort?
They remembered Gu An had called her Su Yan just now.
Her surname was Su, and she was also a Princess Consort.
Could she be the Princess Consort of Guang Pingwang?
Mei Jiang and the burly man looked at each other and flew out of the window in unison.
Gu An kept the jade box in his hand and couldnât care less about why An Yi would appear here.
She said, âAn Yi, quickly chase after them.â
An Yi glanced at Gu An and Su Yan. No one knew what emotions were in his eyes.
Then he flew up and chased after them.
Gu Anâs qinggong was not good, so she could not chase after them.
Moreover, Su Yan was still here, and he could not leave her alone.
After returning to the Guang Residence, Su Yan stayed in Gu Anâs courtyard as they waited for An Yi to come back together.
Gu An was no longer suspicious about Su Yan.
Su Yan looked at Gu An, who was tidying up medicinal herbs, and did not seem to be concerned about Mei Jiangâs whereabouts at all.
Su Yanâs eyes flashed with admiration.
In her impression, Gu An was always so calm.
It was as if she would not be anxious about anything.
This calmness was something Su Yan could not achieve, and it was even more valuable especially after knowing that Gu An was actually a woman.
Su Yan smiled at Gu an. âSister An, can I call you that?â
Gu Anâs hands paused and took a moment to gather her bearings before finishing the rearrangement of the medicinal herbs.
Without looking at Su Yan, she said casually, âNo.â
A hint of disappointment flashed across Su Yanâs eyes. âOh.â
She sat on the stone bench and drew circles on the ground with her feet.
This was something she would do when she was unhappy.
After not hearing Su Yanâs movements for a while, Gu An raised her head in puzzlement.
She saw Su Yan with her head lowered, depressed.
Gu An looked a little helpless and explained, âI donât want to expose my identity yet, so you canât call me sister.â
Su Yan raised her head in surprise, and her unhappy mood instantly disappeared without a trace.
She smiled like a flower, making everyone who looked at her canât help but be happy.
âI know. When thereâs no one else, Iâll call you Sister An, okay?â
