[QTC] Chapter 1773

Gu Pianran felt a little annoyed, but seeing his devilishly handsome face, she suppressed her anger.

Sigh, no matter who she was angry with, she couldn’t be angry with a beauty.

Beauties always have privileges.

Under Gu Pianran’s meticulous care each day, An Ye’s injuries gradually healed.

Xia He and Dong Mei both sensed that their young lady was very attentive to the man who had appeared out of nowhere, feeling that this concern went beyond the bounds of ordinary people.

They weren’t stupid; they vaguely understood some of their young lady’s thoughts.

They could both sense that the man must have sensed it too, yet he remained cold and indifferent to their young lady. If it weren’t for the fact that their young lady was his savior, he probably wouldn’t even glance at her.

This realization made Xia He and Dong Mei, who were serving him, extremely hostile toward An Ye, wishing they could immediately drive this ungrateful man away.

They had stayed in Yuntai County for too long and would be leaving tomorrow.

“Do you think Miss will take him with her?” Dong Mei asked.

“Probably.” Xia He replied without hesitation.

“I hope he’ll know when to leave.”

Xia He nodded in agreement.

An Ye, disliked by the two maids, stood before Gu Pianran.

“Have you made up your mind?” An Ye asked coldly.

Gu Pianran looked at his indifferent expression, growing more and more satisfied and fond of him.

She wanted to see what it would be like when he submitted to her.

“I have.” Gu Pianran smiled sweetly.

“What is it?” An Ye had long wanted to leave this place, to leave this woman.

The woman’s gaze made him very uncomfortable, but he endured it out of respect for her status.

“I need you to be my bodyguard, protecting my safety for a year. After a year, you are free to leave, and we will be even.”

Gu Pianran had already planned her reward when he mentioned it.

An Ye frowned slightly. He hadn’t expected her to make such a request.

Seeing him hesitate, Gu Pianran knew that he was unwilling. Gu Pianran naturally understood that the other party was clearly an unruly person. It was normal for him to feel resistance to being forced to be by her side.

“If you find it difficult, just pretend I didn’t say anything. I won’t make you repay this favor.” Gu Pianran said, using a feigned retreat.

An Ye no longer hesitated and said in a deep voice, “Fine. I’ll protect you for a year, and then I’ll leave.”

“You don’t need to force yourself. I was just saying it casually.”

“One year.” An Ye said solemnly, enunciating each word.

“Fine, since you insist, then a year it is.” Gu Pianran agreed, seemingly helpless against him.

One year—even if she wanted to get rid of him after a year, he probably wouldn’t leave.

Gu Pianran was confident that she could conquer this iceberg within a year.

Her goal had been achieved, so her mood became exceptionally pleasant.

When Dong Mei and Xia He learned of this news, they were thunderstruck.

“Miss, why keep him? This person’s origins are unknown; keeping him might bring trouble.” Xia He couldn’t help but say.

Gu Pianran said nonchalantly, “We can’t rely on just Guard Ma to get to the Great Zhou Dynasty. He’s highly skilled in martial arts. With him, we’ll be much safer.”

Dong Mei was about to say that they could also rely on the Great Zhou Dynasty’s First Prince, Hua Feiyu, but Xia He stopped her.
