After being reborn as an ugly cannon fodder, my appearance stats are off the charts!

Chen Ying's appearance caught everyone off guard.

Yan An had just finished soaking in the hot spring, her mind was clear and her thoughts were calm. The steam from her body had not yet dissipated, and even her skin still had a faint pinkish hue.

The entire hot spring resort has been booked out, and only Yan An and Guan Xian are free to move around these days.

Staff will never appear in front of them unless they call for them.

Guan Xian kept causing trouble, and Yan An ruffled his hair before leaving the hot spring first.

Therefore, when he walked down the corridor that should have been empty, quiet and deserted, but saw Chen Ying, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Chen Ying even brought two people who looked like bodyguards.

"finally……"

Chen Ying grasped Yan An's hand. Those hands were slender and beautiful, soft and boneless, with snow-white and delicate skin. Holding them felt like holding a piece of warm and soft jade. He was lost in thought, but the strength in his hand did not loosen at all; in fact, he unconsciously tightened his grip.

Yan An stomped hard on his foot.

Chen Ying snapped out of his daze in pain, his breathing rapid. "...The Su family has nothing to do with the Chen family anymore, and Su Zhuo has nothing to do with me either!! What, what did you want to say to me that day?" His voice trailed off at the end.

He looked into Yan An's eyes.

He had seen many expensive gems, but no matter how beautiful or valuable they were, none could rival the brilliance of the eyes before him.

Yan An closed his eyes.

He smiled at Chen Ying, "Let go first."

He had a flawless, breathtakingly beautiful face, and at this moment he was wearing a pure white bathrobe of fine material, light as a feather. He should have been ethereal and aloof, but because he had just soaked in the hot spring, his black hair was wet, and his lips were bright red, as if they were covered with a layer of water. His beauty was so striking that it revealed a kind of bewitching beauty.

This beauty transcends the norm, leaving one astonished, breathless, captivated, mesmerized, and yet intensely uneasy.

But that unease only intensified the infatuation.

Yan An's smile made Chen Ying's blood boil, and his mind was temporarily unable to think. The two bodyguards he brought also stood there in a daze.

A somewhat extreme thought suddenly flashed through Yan An's mind: what if he hit them one by one with a stick now, and they wouldn't even be able to react? They might even just stand there dumbly and let him hit them.

Unfortunately, he had nothing in his hands.

He also doesn't really like violence.

After getting Chen Ying to release his grip, Yan An slowly took a few steps back, then turned and ran outside.

The place has been booked out, yet Chen Ying still showed up. That means there's a problem with the management of the resort and its staff, and he needs to call in reinforcements to handle the situation.

Footsteps sounded behind him, and Chen Ying snapped out of his daze and caught up.

"...Why? Why did you leave me?!" Chen Ying grabbed Yan An's arm. "I would do anything for you! Why did you leave me?"

"Let him go!" Guan Xian happened to arrive and saw this scene, and immediately exploded.

Chen Ying was so focused on Yan An that he didn't realize what was happening until he was punched in the face.

He covered his face, watching Guan Xian shield Yan An, the two pressed tightly together in an intimate display. He gritted his teeth and said, "You two, get him! I'll take two of his teeth first!!"

Two bodyguards stepped forward.

Guan Xian is quite skilled in combat, but he can't fight two people who have undergone professional training.

The staff were late in arriving.

The vases in the corridor were smashed to pieces during the fight.

It was clear that Guan Xian was about to fall completely into a disadvantageous position.

"Stop!" Yan An's voice rang out first.

"Stop!!" Chen Ying's voice followed immediately.

The two bodyguards immediately stopped.

Looking to the side, I saw Chen Ying leaning against the wall, his head forced to tilt slightly upwards, a sharp piece of porcelain pressed against his neck—from the vase that had just been broken.

Yan An was holding the porcelain shard tightly.

"Guan Xian!" Yan An glared at Guan Xian. "Go and call for help!"

But Guan Xian was staring at Yan An's hands when he noticed blood on them. Suddenly, his legs seemed rooted to the spot, and he couldn't move an inch.

"Why..." Chen Ying looked down at Yan An, her voice filled with despair, "That day, that day you saw me... I thought you would like me..."

A series of footsteps sounded.

Many people appeared in this corridor.

The staff at this hot spring resort were all wearing uniforms, their expressions extremely complex. Some were secretly glancing at Yan An with amazed and dazed looks, while others had their heads down and looked uneasy.

There were also some people I had met once or twice recently. These people, both men and women, seemed more suited to appearing in groups at luxurious and exquisite banquets, rather than dressed up like peacocks displaying their plumage.

Yan An released his grip, letting the porcelain shards fall to the ground.

Someone came up and restrained Chen Ying, taking him away despite his angry roars.

But many more people gathered around to offer Yan An words of comfort and concern.

A gentle voice said, "Yan'an, are you alright? We were worried something might happen... Sure enough... Chen Ying has been frantically trying to find out about you lately, he seems to have lost his mind. We were worried about you, so we secretly followed him here this time."

Someone shook their head and said, "He's really gone mad."

They looked at Yan An and said, "We're so sorry, we should have stopped him sooner... but as you know, he's just that crazy and won't listen to anyone."

"We were worried that you might get into trouble, which is why we've been keeping a close eye on his movements."

Someone reached out to help Yan An up, saying, "We've been discussing reminding you privately, but we haven't found the right opportunity yet..."

"I didn't expect him to suddenly find you today. Luckily, we kept a close eye on him, preventing him from doing anything more outrageous."

"It was quite a coincidence. We happened to see him driving fast in this direction today, so we quickly followed..."

These people started subtly asking for contact information, one after another. Some said that the hot spring resort was not comprehensive enough and invited Yan'an to their own private hot spring. Others said that their families ran a members-only club with all kinds of leisure, relaxation and entertainment, and that they could go there to have fun and forget about the unpleasant day.

"Enough!" Guan Xian finally squeezed in, glaring at the people around him. "Are you ever going to stop?!"

Guan Xian dared not touch Yan An's hands, which were already hidden in his sleeves. He only dared to gently hold Yan An's shoulders and lead him outside, saying, "Make way! All of you make way!"

The problem was that when others were talking around and trying to help Yan An, Yan An didn't react at all.

Now that Guan Xian has made a move, Yan An has followed suit.

Even those who originally wanted to stop him had no choice but to make way for him when they saw that Yan An was leaving on his own initiative.

They fell silent, watching Yan An and Guan Xian walk hand in hand, their faces gradually darkening. When they looked at each other again, there was none of the tacit understanding they had shared before, where they used to address each other as "we."

……

As soon as Yan An sat down, Guan Xian looked at his outstretched palm, wanting to touch it but not daring to. He frantically started calling for people, "He cut himself on a shard of porcelain! He's bleeding! ...Damn it! Why are you asking so many questions?! Come here right now!!! Five minutes!"

Yan An felt pain in her hand and didn't really want to talk.

He was still thinking about that group of people, feeling that they weren't much better than Chen Ying.

It seems I still need to keep security personnel with me at all times...

The problem is that Guan Shu has already changed his security guards several times, because some of them, after staying with him for a long time, might actually become a source of danger for him...

He doesn't go out often because he's worried about running into someone like Chen Ying.

In the end...

And Guan Xian, upon seeing that there were three people on the other side, should have quickly run to call for backup instead of foolishly rushing forward.

Yan An looked at Guan Xian, wanting to see if he was seriously injured from the beating.

As for Yan An's own hand, he could feel that it was only a minor injury, not serious, and Guan Xian had already called a doctor over, so he wasn't too concerned.

Just then, a dull "thump" rang out, and Guan Xian, who was almost 1.9 meters tall, knelt down on the blanket at his feet.

Yan An was startled and looked down.

Guan Xian had already hugged Yan An's knees, his head bobbing back and forth.

Just as Yan An was about to get angry, he suddenly heard a strange sound.

A suppressed but unsuccessful sob was heard, accompanied by the trembling of Guan Xian's shoulders.

"Waaah..."

It sounded like the groan of a wounded animal, a sound as if it were being crushed inside the chest, a painful cry that came from trying to control oneself but failing to do so.

Yan An: ...

Yan An nudged Tui Guan Xian and could feel that every muscle in his body was tense, his body temperature was so high that it was almost burning hot, and the fabric on Yan An's legs was soaked with his tears.

"Get up quickly, stop crying..." Yan Anzhen was truly exasperated with him. "Where does it hurt? Were you injured?"

Guan Xian's voice was slurred and somewhat indistinct, "No... I'm fine..."

He was still crying, his teeth chattering, and he stammered, "What... what should I do... Yan'an... you're bleeding... I'm so sorry... I really... I... I can't take it anymore... I actually... watched you get hurt..."

Yan An felt a mix of emotions: touched, speechless, and both amused and exasperated.

"I like you... I love you... How could I let you get hurt... get hurt in front of me..."
