Chapter 1172: He Was Very Scary After He Transformed

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The sound of the rain could be heard, and the humidity in the air increased too.

Just like what Qin Shu said, Chao Yan was childish.

He was childish enough to want Qin Shu to take the initiative to come to him and talk to him, just like before.

He thought, even if there was no boat, as long as she wanted to come, she would think of a way to come. She was so smart.

But he forgot that Qin Shu hated him. It was different from when she was young.

Chao Yan held the railing and walked down the steps. Then he walked onto the boat that was docked at the side.

The rain kept falling, and the raindrops were very heavy. They fell on his black hair, wetting his hair and his moon-white clothes.

He slid the oars. His movements were not skilled, so he could only barely slide the boat.

The rain was so heavy that he was drenched in a short time.

The sky was covered with dark clouds and the sky was a little dark. He looked very conspicuous in his white clothes.

Qin Shu came out of the shower and wore a snow-white nightgown made of silk. It was very comfortable on her.

It was lunchtime. She turned her head to look outside the door. She wanted to see if the rain had stopped, but she saw a white figure standing on the Bluestone Road, probably hesitating whether to come in or not, so he stood on the road and did not move.

The rain outside did not stop, and the rain did not lessen either.

The white figure stood in the rain. His clothes had long been soaked by the rain. The silky and soft fabric stuck tightly to his body, and one could roughly see his figure.

He was very thin, so thin that it was as if a gust of wind would blow him over.

She held a towel in her hand and stopped wiping her hair. Chao Yan could not see her, but he just stood in the rain.

After being stunned for a few seconds, she turned around and walked in, continuing to wipe her hair.

After ten minutes, she walked to the door and saw Chao Yan still standing in the same position as before, not moving at all.

She knew that he could not see her, and he did not know that she was looking at him too.

Even if she thought that Chao Yan was pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy, she could not stand it anymore.

She searched for a while in the room and she found an oil-paper umbrella. She opened the umbrella and walked out, trotting to Chao Yan.

She held the umbrella with one hand and grabbed his arm with the other. She paused and realized that his arm was so slender that it did not seem to have any flesh.

Chao Yan knew that the person who grabbed him was Qin Shu, he did not realise her staring at his arm. He was just a little happy, as she was still worried about him.

Qin Shu was stunned for a while before she retracted her gaze. Her tone was a little harsh. “Don’t you know that it’s raining outside?”

Chao Yan did not make a sound. The rain dripped down from his hair and brushed past his pale face. The tip of his nose was high up, and under his bright and clean chin, he looked pathetic.

If that was what Chao Yan wanted, then he made it.

Seeing that he did not say anything, Qin Shu did not ask any further. “Come in with me first.”

She pulled Chao Yan’s arm and walked into the room.

Chao Yan followed in her footsteps obediently. She did not walk fast so that he could keep up with her and would not fall.

Chao Yan knew her intention too. His lips, which had been washed by the rain, became even paler. At this moment, a faint smile appeared on his face.

After walking in, Qin Shu brought him into the bathroom. “Take a shower first, or else you would catch a cold.”

After saying that, Qin Shu walked out and closed the door.

She knew that Chao Yan could take a shower by himself. His affairs were always handled by himself.

After the bathroom door was closed, he stood in the middle of the bathroom with his head facing the direction of the door. He realized that there were some bad habits sometimes.

For example, he could ask for help if he could not see.

After standing for a while, he slowly took off his clothes and turned on the shower.

Qin Shu continued to wipe her hair with a towel in her hand. From time to time, she looked up at the bathroom. Although she knew that Chao Yan couldn’t see, he could do many things by himself. She was still worried that he would fall because the bathroom floor was a little slippery.

After waiting for a long time, she wiped her hair, but Chao Yan still hadn’t come out.

“You didn’t fall right?”

She could only go to the bathroom door and knock on it a few times. “Are you okay?”

After a while, the bathroom door opened. When Qin Shu saw Chao Yan, she was stunned.

His wet hair was pushed to the back of his head, revealing his smooth and full forehead. The pure white gauze had long been wet and was dripping with water.

He was not wearing pyjamas or a bathrobe. His upper body appeared naked in her sight. His skin was even fairer than his face. It was sickly pale as if she could see the blood vessels under his skin.

His sternum and his ribs were visible.

He was only wearing a pure white towel, which hung loosely around his waist. His waist was very slim, and there was not even any flesh, not to mention fats.

She knew that Chao Yan was thin, but she did not expect him to be so thin. He was so thin that it made her heart ache.

Only now did she know why he did not come out. It was because there were no pyjamas or gowns in the bathroom. He had to wear a towel because he heard a knock on the door.

Chao Yan stood upright at the bathroom door. He was not feeling uncomfortable because he was not wearing any clothes. He had never worn so little in front of others.

In the past, when he was thin, his figure was still very good. He had all the pectoral muscles and abdominal muscles that he should have.

Now, even if he could not see, he knew that he was so thin that one could only see his bones.

“There is no sleeping robe inside,” he explained.

Qin Shu was frightened by his thinness, so she kept staring at him. When she reacted, she realized that she was staring at Chao Yan’s body.

She hurriedly looked away. “Wait for a while. I’ll go find Yin Shi and ask him to prepare dry clothes for you.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked out.

Chao Yan reminded her, “Remember to bring the umbrella.”

Qin Shu, who had run to the door, turned back, took the oilpaper umbrella, opened it, and walked out again.

Chao Yan smiled, then came to the bed and sat down. It was raining outside, and the wind was blowing. He felt a little cold, so he reached out to lift the blanket and got in. He wrapped himself up, only revealing his head.

When Qin Shu ran back, she saw Chao Yan sitting on the bed, wrapped himself up like a silkworm. His face was very pale, without a trace of blood.

“Why did you sleep on my bed?”

“I’m cold.” Chao Yan’s voice was very low, obviously trembling.

Hearing this, Qin Shu didn’t say anything.

Yin Shi was very fast. It didn’t take long for him to prepare clothes and get people to prepare the ginger soup.

Qin Shu went out after the clothes were delivered.

Yin Shi helped Chao Yan change his clothes.

After changing his clothes, Yin Shi brought over two bowls of ginger soup.

He handed a bowl to Qin Shu. “Miss Qin, have a bowl too.”

“Thank you.” Qin Shu didn’t stand at the ceremony. She brought it over and began to drink. The ginger soup was a little hot, and after drinking it, her body began to heat up.

In the other bowl, Yin Shi handed it to Chao Yan and waited for him to hold it firmly before releasing it.

Chao Yan could not see, so he drank very slowly. Qin Shu had finished drinking it quite a while before he finished it.

At this time, the rain outside stopped, and the dark clouds dispersed too. The sun shone through the clouds, and the sky suddenly brightened.

Yin Shi took the empty bowl and reminded, “Master, lunch is ready.”

Qin Shu was hungry, so when she heard Yin Shi say that lunch was ready, she turned around and walked out.

Chao Yan heard the footsteps and knew that Qin Shu was going to eat, so he followed her out.

Yin Shi looked at the two people in front and behind and let out a sigh of relief. He almost thought that the master was going to stay in the gazebo.

He sighed and walked out as well. He asked someone to change the quilt in the room. Master sat on the bed and wet the quilt, so he had to change it.

At the dining table.

Qin Shu was eating lunch casually. Chao Yan sat opposite her and didn’t speak. He was eating lunch slowly, probably because he couldn’t see with his eyes.

The gauze on his eyes had been changed.

Qin Shu ate a mouthful of food and asked him, “Why did you suddenly come out of the gazebo?”

Chao Yan stopped eating. He slowly chewed the rice in his mouth and replied, “It’s raining.”

What did the rain have to do with him leaving the gazebo?

Qin Shu felt that Chao Yan was just giving her a perfunctory reply.

She took two mouthfuls of rice and suddenly stopped. She raised her head and looked at Chao Yan opposite her. “Let me go. Let’s forget everything that happened in the past and pretend that we don’t know each other.”

Chao Yan paused for a moment before chewing at a slow speed. Only when he swallowed did he say, “I won’t let you go.”

Qin Shu was angry. This was probably the reason why she had been depressed.

“What do you want? Why do you have to trap me by your side?”

Chao Yan took a bite of rice and chewed slowly, but he did not answer.

Qin Shu put down her bowl and chopsticks. She had no appetite at all. She wanted to get angry, but her mind suddenly flashed to his skinny body. She suppressed her anger again.

“What would make you let me go?”

Chao Yan’s voice was flat as if it had been washed by cold rain. It was cold. “Unless I die.”

“You…” Qin Shu suddenly stood up and glared at Chao Yan. “You like me, don’t you?”

Chao Yan ate another mouthful of white rice. He chewed carefully and slowly swallowed. He didn’t answer.

Qin Shu waited for a while but did not get an answer. She took it as his tacit agreement.

“You like me, so you want to trap me? I told you, I have a husband and a son. What you are doing is disgusting!”

After saying that, Qin Shu stopped looking at him and stopped eating. She turned around and left.

Chao Yan stopped chewing. His mouth was holding the unchewed white rice. His pale lips were pursed tightly, and he did not say a word.

Yin Shi did not expect that the meal would end up like this. Master had finally eaten the white rice.

He looked at the master and saw that master was sitting there without saying a word. He could not help but feel worried. He called out softly, “Master?”

“She said I was disgusting.” Chao Yan opened his mouth as if he was talking to himself.

Yin Shi comforted him, “Master, Miss Qin is talking in anger. Don’t think too much.”

Chao Yan sat there as if he was shrouded in darkness. His pale face was gloomy.

“Disgusting?” A cold and self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. “Then I will make it even more disgusting.”

Yin Shi realized that there was something wrong with his master, especially with his voice. It was bone-chilling and did not seem to come from his master. He hurriedly grabbed the master’s arm, he advised, “Master, please wake up. Don’t do something that you will regret.”

After following his master for so many years, he had never seen his master so devoted to any woman. If he said that he liked her, the master was indeed very devoted to Qin Shu. Even though he knew that she was married, he still considered everything to her, the master had never cared about it even if it was the master’s life.

The first time he saw Qin Shu, the master did not even detoxify the poison for her. He wanted Qin Shu to accompany him for three days.

But master seemed to have never thought about letting her stay by his side forever.

If the master wanted her to stay, he would be able to keep her.

But master did not. He did many things just to fight for time to be together with Qin Shu. He did not even care about his life.

It was enough to prove that the master liked Qin Shu, but not the kind that insisted on taking her for himself.

Therefore, the master’s current condition was like being possessed.

“Regret? I never do things that I regret.”

The smile on Chao Yan’s lips was cold and sinister as if it came from hell.

He stood up and walked out.

Yin Shi hurriedly chased after him, “Master, where are you going?”

Chao Yan sneered. “I like her. Of course, I want to have her.”

No matter how dumb Yin Shi was, he understood what his master meant. Master was trying to force Qin Shu to have her?

He looked at his master’s figure that had walked out and chased after him again. Then, he grabbed his arm and continued to persuade him. “Master, you will regret doing this.”

Chao Yan: “I will not do anything that I will regret.”

Yin Shi felt that his master seemed to have changed into a different person. He asked again, “Then have you forgotten the purpose of bringing Miss Qin here?”

“Of course, to become my girl.” Chao Yan answered very quickly and coldly.

Yin Shi paused. Master had clearly never said this before.

Just as Yin Shi was in a daze, Chao Yan had walked far away.

Yin Shi came back to his senses and looked at his master’s thin back. He suddenly hesitated. He had been by his master’s side for almost ten years, but he had never seen his master get a girlfriend, not to mention a woman.

Countless women came to his door voluntarily, but his master was indifferent.

He did not doubt that his master was still a virgin.

Now that master did not have much time left, did this count as fulfilling his regret?

However, if his master woke up and found out what he had done to Qin Shu, would he regret it?

Yin Shi hesitated for a long time before taking large strides to chase after Chao Yan.

Chao Yan could not see, so he did not walk fast. Yin Shi ran for a while and caught up with him.

He did not care about the master’s current thoughts. He was afraid that his master would regret it.

So, he raised his hand knife and directly knocked Chao Yan into an unconscious state.

Chao Yan’s thin figure swayed in the wind and fell straight down.

Yin Shi stretched out his arms and pulled Chao Yan into his embrace. Then, he carried him horizontally and turned to walk toward his master’s room.

How thin was master now?

Yin Shi could easily carry the 1.87-meter-tall Chao Yan. It was effortless. He didn’t even pant when he walked.

Master’s room was very close to Qin Shu’s room, so they arrived in a short while.

He kicked open the door of the room, strode to the bedside, and laid master flat on the bed.

To let master sleep a little longer, he took some incense and lit it.

This was the calming incense, and one could fall asleep after smelling it for a few minutes.
