Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 34: Chapter 19 Oops, Exposed_2

Everyone: “…”

They didn’t react at first…

“Pfft…” Dong Lei was the first to lose it, laughing out loud.

Everyone else followed suit, covering their mouths in laughter, except for Zhou Mu, who looked as if he had been fished out of an ice cellar, his whole body radiating coldness as he glared at the woman laughing unrestrainedly.

“My lady, how could there be a proprietress like you, you said these words, right?” Xiao Cui covered her laughter, disbelievingly speaking out. Such words could only be said by my lady.

“How could it be if I were to say it, it should be, I’ve always regarded money and handsome men like my own limbs!” Gu Changsheng began to laugh, clutching her stomach as the first to do so.

Everyone else also laughed helplessly, my lady, really…

“Your limbs need a change of dressing.”

An icy voice came through, instantly dropping the room’s temperature below freezing.@@novelbin@@

Everyone looked in terror towards the source of the voice, it was the Iceberg Handsome Man Wood Brother!

Gu Changsheng instantly felt a row of cold sweat form on her forehead. Nyonya, who could explain to her what kind of mood the evildoer was in today?

“Cough, cough… that, how could you… be my… limbs?” Gu Changsheng’s gaze darted around, just not daring to look his way. This feeling was too damn chaotic, her heart pounding as if it were drumming, decisively having dug a hole for herself.

“I.” Zhou Mu pointed at himself with a face as stunningly handsome as to defy description, and continued, “have money!”

Right, to say he wasn’t a handsome man would be an outright lie; since he was both a handsome man and wealthy, he completely qualified to be considered her limbs!

Nyonya! Strike her with a bolt of heavenly lightning! Gu Changsheng looked up, filled with resentment…

Everyone also lowered their heads of their own accord, knowing my lady was definitely going to be angry.

Indeed, just as Gu Changsheng regained her composure, she slammed the table and stood up, hips akimbo and eyes ablaze, extending a hand towards Zhou Mu and speaking through gritted teeth, “You’ve got money? The forty thousand taels you owe me, hand it over!”

“The bronze token is still with you.” Zhou Mu spoke calmly and indifferently. That’s the military token capable of commanding an entire army, something that could not be compared to a mere forty thousand taels!

“A piece of scrap metal won’t clear my debt, let me tell you, I’m the type who won’t release the hawk until I see the silver!” Gu Changsheng was unyielding. No matter how useful something might be, in her hands it was just a piece of useless copper, good for nothing.

Dong Lei was clearly scared by such a lady, his eyes wide open, staring at Gu Changsheng as if she were a monster.

It seemed everyone was accustomed to this, even Little Meat Bun Gu Ze, who continued nibbling on a fruit, curiously looking left and right, then bowing his head to keep eating, pretending he’d seen nothing.

The atmosphere turned eerie again, Gu Changsheng already boiling with rage, her extended hand still not lowered, seemingly determined not to give up until Zhou Mu returned the silver.

On the other end, Zhou Mu was composedly sipping tea, as if Mount Tai’s overwhelming pressure couldn’t move him an inch.

Little Meat Bun was the first to crack, his little bottom silently shifting, then shifting again, until his feet finally touched the ground, and bending his small body, he sneaked past the chair behind Gu Changsheng like a thief, quietly tugging at Han Mo, and the two darted out of the room as if escaping.

The remaining three maids looked at each other, and even Dong Lei, who had just joined their ranks, had a moment of enlightenment. They all understood the unspoken message: Retreat!

As soon as they thought it, they executed the retreat with agile movements, silent as shadows…

In a blink, only the two adversaries were left in the room. Zhou Mu glanced around, elegantly set down his tea cup, and lifted his head to meet the eyes of the woman before him, speaking with a calm detachment, “It’s time to change your dressing.”

In an instant, Gu Changsheng’s domineering aura vanished, and she wilted like a frostbitten eggplant!

How could someone be so shameless? How could he use the Handsome Man Strategy like this, his voice so low and seductive, full of temptation, setting off her wild imagination… Changing the dressing meant getting undressed…

“Umm, your wound has almost healed, you don’t need me to change your dressing anymore, I’ll call Xiao Cui…” Gu Changsheng felt like she was possessed by a demon; every time she saw Zhou Mu, this evildoer, she couldn’t act normal. Cherish life, stay away from evildoers; she couldn’t afford to provoke him, she’d better just hide. Didn’t the old saying go, flight is the greatest tactic! With this thought, she turned on her heel, ready to sprint out of the room.

Gu Changsheng’s speed was indisputably fast, especially when fleeing for her life. But there was someone even faster than her.

In no time at all, Zhou Mu stood up as if nothing was amiss, and with one stride of his long legs, he appeared right in front of Gu Changsheng.

“Bang…”

Gu Changsheng only saw a blur before she crashed into a wall of flesh. She hadn’t even had time to react when she instinctively brought one hand to her throbbing forehead and pushed forward with the other…

Reaching out, her hand made contact with the flesh wall, and Gu Changsheng froze on the spot!

Good heavens! What had she done? What was beneath her hand? Solid muscle radiated warmth through his thin summer clothes, and there was a small protrusion that pulsed beneath her hand in time with his heartbeat…

The feel of it, damn, was not bad! This sensation, damn, was enough to make one’s cheeks flush and heart race!

“Shameless!”

Damn it! Not this line again! Gu Changsheng snapped back to reality from her vivid fantasies. Wasn’t this the time for him to coyly say, “Oh dear, you mischievous little fairy…”? Why did the script change with him?

After a fierce shove against the meat wall, Gu Changsheng stepped back and furrowed her brows, “Who’s shameless now? You’re the one who came over here and let me touch you, offering yourself up for free touches!”

Zhou Mu immediately recalled the unfinished part of her sentence, the implication of touching anyone for free. His austere face turned dark as he spoke with loathing, “You… woman with more bust than brains…”

“What’s wrong with having more bust than brains? I’m proud of my assets, do you have them?” Gu Changsheng taunted, shrugging her chest with a wickedly triumphant smile.

Zhou Mu instantly turned away, hiding his handsome face from her view.

Gu Changsheng watched him, puzzled. Was he admitting defeat just like that? That wasn’t like him, not his usual style. Normally, it was him dropping a few cold words, leaving her defeated…

With bewilderment, Gu Changsheng lowered her gaze…

Then her eyes bulged at the sight of her chest, and she felt as if she had been struck by lightning—cooked on the outside, tender on the inside…

“Ahh…” A shriek tore through the inn’s airspace, lingering for a long while…
