"Mr. Gu, don't be rash. An illness like yours still needs some rest."
Yun Xi's words meant that Gu Ting was not suitable for this kind of intense exercise between a man and a woman at the moment.
Mr. Gu?!
Interesting!
Gu Ting usually heard others address him as boss or Boss Gu. It was the first time someone had stood in the same position as him and addressed him as Mr. Gu in the same manner.
The opposite of Mister was Madam.
Gu Ting thought to himself that since he was almost 30 years old, so it would be nice to have a wife at this age.
Gu Ting looked at Yun Xi with a burning gaze.
At this moment, the underlings outside the door started whispering to each other as they looked at the medicine list.
"Sigh, do you think our boss can't do it? It's such a short night, but he made us go out in the middle of the night to buy these Chinese medicine for him. Do you think it's because our boss is weak?"
"I think it's probably the same. Look at our boss's face, it's often so pale that it doesn't have any color. This is just a little girl, but he can't even handle it. The medicine on the list is most likely tonic."
The two underlings, who were not of high status, were eager to help, but Ah Qiang heard them clearly.
"Shut up, who gave you the courage to talk about our boss behind his back?!"
Hearing Ah Qiang's reprimand, the two lackeys also obediently shut their mouths.
"I advise you to shut your mouths. If our boss hears this, the two of you won't even know how you died."
Ah Qiang was still not particularly strict with the two newbies. Thinking that he had also come from this time and was also brought here by his seniors, he wanted to give some advice to his juniors.
Ah Qiang was very efficient. In just half an hour, he had brought back all the items on the list.
Ah Qiang carefully knocked on Gu Ting's door. When he opened the door and saw the scene, Ah Qiang's jaw dropped in shock.
Gu Ting was lying half-naked on the comfortable bed. Yun Xi was leaning against the wall with one hand and lifting her sapphire blue dress with the other. She was using her fair and soft feet to step wildly on her boss' back.
In the past, it had always been his boss stepping on others' faces. When would he let someone else step on him?!
Ah Qiang was also an experienced man by Gu Ting's side. He suddenly understood that this girl might have a different meaning to his boss.
"This subordinate of yours is quite efficient. He got everything I needed so quickly."
Yun Xi hopped under the bed barefooted. The expensive carpet from the building was very soft and did not hurt her feet at all.
"Not bad, not bad. I'm quite satisfied."
Yun Xi began to take these things out. Then, she carried the long skirt back to the bedside and threw the shirt to Gu Ting.
"Put on your clothes and go out. I'm going to get busy. Before I call you, you are not allowed to come in."
Ah Qiang's jaw dropped when he heard the little girl's words. Previously, there were many women around the boss, but all of them looked at the boss respectfully. How could they be bossy?
Just as Ah Qiang thought that the little girl would not be able to escape disaster, Gu Ting's words almost made Ah Qiang suffer internal injuries.
"Okay, I'll leave this room for you. If you need anything, you can open the door and ask Ah Qiang to help you do it."
"Alright, alright, don't be so wishy-washy. You guys should go out first!"
Ah Qiang escorted his boss safely and left the room with his jaw dropped.
This room was not only big, but it was also very complete. Beside the bathroom, Yun Xi found a natural gas stove. This way, she could put the pot on top to boil these smelly medicinal herbs.
However, it was just a camouflage. Yun Xi's real goal was to understand the structure of the entire room and where she was.
Yun Xi stood on the balcony and looked out. The lights at night were sparse, but it could still be seen that she was around the seventh floor.
In this era, it was rare to see tall buildings. She should not be in the county where she lived at this time. She was probably in a city.
Then there was no hope of escaping, because she did not know every road in this new city.
Moreover, Gu Ting must have spies nearby. Now, she could still use the pills in her space to save her life. Even if she had the thought of escaping, with this boss's skills, he would definitely strangle her to death.
Yun Xi could only pray that her family found out that she was missing and pray that Zhou Lin would come to save her soon.
