A miraculous doctor descended from the heavens.

When Gu Feng got home, he discovered that Su Man'er hadn't slept in today, which was a rare occurrence.

Not only did she get up, but she also tidied herself up neatly, looking like she was about to go out.

"Oh, honey, you're back? Have you had breakfast? I'll make you some."

When Su Man'er saw him, her eyes were filled with surprise and joy.

What she really wanted to blurt out was—So you finally decided to come back? Where did you go all night?

However, that's something only a foolish woman would do; saying such things would only push her man further away.

Su Man'er is surrounded by single women, all of whom are seasoned veterans of the dating scene. Under their daily and meticulous guidance, she not only learned how to win a man's heart through his stomach, but also how to capture his soul.

"No need to bother, I've already eaten. Come back and change your clothes." Gu Feng quickly reached out to stop her.

"oh."

Su Man'er responded casually, and as soon as she got close, she smelled a woman's perfume on him.

The scent was sophisticated, light and elegant. If her nose wasn't mistaken, it was the top-tier perfume she had always coveted but couldn't bring herself to buy—Guccio Gucci.

But she only frowned slightly before relaxing her brow.

She followed Gu Feng into the room, asking nothing and saying nothing, but quietly undressing him.

However, at the very end, when she took off his shirt, she couldn't help herself—she lost control all at once.

She stared intently at the horrifying ring of teeth marks on Gu Feng's shoulder, and cried out, "Who bit you?"

"I..." Gu Feng's face instantly turned so ashamed he wished he could disappear into the ground. Seeing Su Man'er gently tracing the circle of teeth marks with her fingertips, her eyes immediately reddening, her face filled with grievance and heartache, his heart clenched. "Sister, I'm sorry. It's like this..."

Gu Feng told her everything that had happened yesterday: how Ding Lisheng and his advisor had approached him, how he had gone to the Ding family, his long talk with Old Man Ding, how he had inexplicably become Ding Hanhan's temporary bodyguard, and the whole mess that had happened that afternoon.

However, when it came to the evening, he only talked about the first half of it, and he didn't mention a word about the part that was mixed with fine wine, music, and ambiguity.

He didn't want to lie to Su Man'er at all, but sometimes, when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

A white lie can sometimes minimize the harm.

Upon hearing this, Su Man'er felt a slight sense of relief, but she couldn't control her tears, which streamed down her face. She then hugged him tightly!

"Gu Feng, go tell Old Man Ding that we're not doing this job anymore, okay? That woman is so barbaric, what kind of suffering have you endured!"

"Sister, it's alright. I can handle Ding Hanhan's side. It's just that things have escalated to this point, and even if I wanted to back out, they wouldn't let me go." Gu Feng's voice deepened as he spoke. "The only thing I'm worried about right now is you. From now on, you have to be extra careful when you go out. I'm afraid that if Ding's enemies can't do anything to me, they'll turn around and target you."

Ever since he realized that he had fallen headlong into the murky waters of the Ding family and could not get out, Su Man'er's safety had become a major worry for him, weighing heavily on his mind, and he couldn't come up with a proper solution.

"Gu Feng, you don't need to worry about me. I can take care of myself, so don't worry."

Su Man'er wasn't worried about herself at all; she was only heartbroken for him. Looking at the teeth marks on his shoulder, tears streamed down her face again.

Countless times, when he had driven her to madness and made her lose control of her desires, she had wanted to bite him, but in the end, she couldn't bring herself to do it. And now, another woman had beaten her to it.

Seeing her in such distress, Gu Feng felt as if his heart was being torn apart. His fingers accidentally touched something hard in his pocket, and he suddenly remembered it, quickly taking it out and handing it to her.

"Sister, look, I'm not working as a bodyguard for free; this is a salary paid by the Ding family."

Su Man'er wiped away her tears, took the gold card, but it felt like receiving money for his sale. Instead of turning her sorrow into joy, she choked back tears, sobbing as she asked, "How much... is in here?"

"I don't know. Ding Lisheng only told me the password was six eights, but he didn't say how much money was in it." Gu Feng reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Sister, don't cry. If you cry, your makeup will be ruined, and you won't look good when you go out later."

"Mmm." Su Man'er blushed slightly and shyly took out a tissue to dab her eyes. But she was secretly pleased—since falling in love, she had become even more beautiful than before.

"By the way, sis, where are you going?"

"Dean Peng called me last night and asked me to come over today to discuss drug cooperation." Su Man'er's face finally showed some joy. "Gu Feng, if the drugs I represent can be put in the People's Hospital pharmacy, I can't guarantee that we'll be rich and powerful for the rest of our lives, but we'll definitely never be as poor as before."

"Hehe, aren't our lives getting better and better these days?"

Gu Feng smiled, then took out paper and pen and began to write quickly on the table.

"What are you writing?" Su Man'er asked curiously, leaning over.

Gu Feng didn't even look up, writing the entire page in one go before putting down his pen. He then leaned over and gently pecked her rosy cheek: "Prescription. Since you're going to the hospital, could you also pick up these medicines for me?"

"All Chinese medicine? Wow, so much!"

Su Man'er took the prescription and glanced at it, then gasped in astonishment.

The top of the document lists the names and quantities of nearly three hundred kinds of Chinese medicinal herbs.

"This is hardly a lot. There are countless kinds of Chinese herbal medicines. If you were to list them all, there would be more than ten thousand. They have different names and their effects are also very diverse. However, ordinary people usually use only about a thousand kinds."

The term "ancient maple" is certainly correct in the Liao Dynasty, but in modern times, it would be remarkable if an ordinary Chinese medicine shop could keep a few hundred kinds of medicines, and it would be extremely rare to find more than a thousand.

As the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.

When Gu Feng went out and opened the door, he was surprised to find Ding Hanhan and Abu standing there.

"Hey Gu, are you going to school or not? You're going to be late!"

Ding Hanhan's pretty face showed a hint of reproach. She really didn't expect this guy to be so fussy. He said he was just coming back to change his clothes, but it had been almost an hour since he came in and he still hadn't changed properly.

"Okay, coming right now..." Gu Feng opened his mouth, but before he could finish speaking, a figure darted out from behind him without warning. A crisp "snap" followed!

Su Man'er swung her arm and delivered a solid slap to Ding Hanhan's face.

Everyone present was stunned, including Ding Hanhan, who was covering her face. Of course, Su Man'er, who had hit someone, was an exception.

"Hey, why are you hitting me?"

Abu reacted and his expression changed drastically. He was about to push Su Man'er forward, but when he caught sight of Gu Feng standing to the side, he stopped in his tracks and stood firmly in front of Ding Hanhan.

Su Man'er didn't even glance at him, only glaring indignantly at Ding Hanhan, who was still covering his face and hadn't recovered yet: "Ding, I have no problem with Gu Feng being your bodyguard. You kiss him, love him, even if you sleep with him, I might not have a problem with that—but why did you bite him? Didn't anyone teach you that men are meant to be cherished, not bitten?"

Ding Hanhan stared blankly at Su Man'er, as if she hadn't yet recovered from the sudden slap.

Seeing this, Gu Feng inwardly cried out in dismay, secretly wishing he could slap himself across the face.

He had long known that although Su Man'er was generous on the surface, she secretly kept him like a private forbidden zone.

She couldn't tolerate him having other women, at least not in front of her.

But he kept making the same mistake and brought the woman back to his doorstep.

But then he thought about it again and felt very wronged—he hadn't brought the woman into the house.

As soon as the car entered Portland Street, he reminded himself, fearing that Su Man'er would lose her temper, and specially asked Ding Hanhan and Abu to wait at the street corner.

But the scene he least wanted to see still happened.

At this moment, Gu Feng could only sigh, borrowing Li Xiaolan's words: "Even the most brilliant Chopin couldn't express my sorrow." Just wait, this battle is inevitable.

He even subconsciously tensed his ears—was Ding Hanhan someone who would let anyone slap her?

That's right. Ding Hanhan not only doesn't let anyone hit her, but she has never been laid a finger on by anyone in her entire life.

But today, he was slapped hard across the face by another woman.

Although not entirely without reason, Gu Feng and Abu believed that this rich young lady was bound to blow up the temple.

However, the result surprised everyone. Ding Hanhan simply gave Su Man'er a deep look, said nothing, and turned to leave.

Gu Feng was truly stunned and stood frozen in place.

Su Man'er, however, acted as if nothing had happened. She patted Gu Feng on the shoulder and said in a mature and composed tone, "It's alright. This kind of woman will behave after a couple of slaps. Don't take it to heart."

You took it to heart, didn't you? You keep saying you'd give him freedom and let him make friends, but you can't tolerate even a speck of dust in your eyes. Gu Feng poured out his bitterness, but he could only endure it.

He knew that Su Man'er was subtly criticizing him—no matter how well you fabricate your lies, I know exactly what you've done.

However, Gu Feng really had no other choice.

Su Man'er may be petty, but she is never lacking in cunning; Su Man'er may be good-tempered, but she is by no means without one.

Having a woman like this, how could you possibly cheat on her?

Let's not call him delusional; let's just say he's a fool dreaming.
