Chapter 1391: There’s Really Not Enough Time!

Chapter 1391: Chapter 1391: There’s Really Not Enough Time!

Gu Beicheng really couldn’t handle this mischievous little rascal who dares not own up, is he really that terrifying?

"Fine, I’ll talk!" Xia Yinian suddenly pushed him away and stood up.

Indeed, he really is that terrifying!

Xia Yinian met his gaze and took a deep breath. Just as she was about to say something, her phone rang unexpectedly.

She blinked, truly thankful for the timely interruption.

"I need to take this call first."

Gu Beicheng nodded, making an indistinct sound, his voice hoarse.

Xia Yinian walked over to the phone, glanced at the screen, cleared her throat with two light coughs, and then answered the call.

"Hello, Young Master Jing, is there something you need?"

Whatever the other side said, Gu Beicheng couldn’t hear clearly, but soon Xia Yinian’s voice rang out once more.

"Now? I..." She glanced back at Gu Beicheng, "Can you wait a moment?"

"Alright, I’ll be down in five minutes then."

Xia Yinian put down the phone and returned to Gu Beicheng’s side.

"Beicheng, Young Master Jing is looking for me, he said he wants to take me to meet someone."

"I don’t know who it is; he said he initially planned to take me after the Alchemy Competition."

"But, he suddenly needs to leave right away, and doesn’t know when he’ll be back."

"He’s worried that by then I might no longer be in Bing City, so..."

The person on the bed didn’t look pleased. Xia Yinian’s gaze flicked down, and she bit her lip tightly.

"Then I’ll head down first, you should... ahem... rest for a bit, he said the person is at the Jing Family’s place, it shouldn’t take long."

"Come here." A faint voice drifted over.

Xia Yinian blinked, looking troubled.

She was quite curious about Jing Hanye’s call, meeting someone? Who could be so important? And she didn’t know anyone in Bing City at all.

But there was another reason for her urgency to leave, because she had provoked a wolf who might devour her any second.

"Come here, don’t make me say it a third time." Gu Beicheng’s voice deepened.

Xia Yinian had no choice but to reluctantly move her feet and walked over.

Gu Beicheng reached out and pulled her over forcefully, making her sit on his lap.

"Your own man is still in the room, and you’re eager to meet another man, hmm?"

As he spoke the last word, his body leaned forward.

Her butt got hit, and if she wasn’t held tightly, Xia Yinian might have already fallen off the bed in fright.

"No, Beicheng, it’s not like that, Young Master Jing suddenly said this, it must be something important, so... I want to go check it out."

"Maybe it’s really someone significant, why don’t you come with me, okay? After all, you haven’t left yet, right?"

"And what about it?" Gu Beicheng looked at her little head, sounding a bit displeased.

"It?" Xia Yinian pursed her lips, realizing "it" wasn’t "him."

"Let it wait for a bit, if it’s not... not particularly hungry, then it’s fine. If it is hungry, we’ll deal with it when we get back, okay?"

In a certain girl’s mind, once such matters are left aside for a while, they become non-issues, seemingly, that’s just how it is.

"Okay, how about that? After all, in two or three minutes, we can’t do anything anyway, right?" Xia Yinian added another sentence.

Suddenly, her body was laid back on the bed, and she widened her eyes staring at the man in front of her.

"Beicheng... there’s really not enough time now! Can we..."
