Almost Exposed Again!

Lu Han was stunned when he heard Guan Tong's cold voice. Guan Tong could also be so fickle sometimes. He didn't expect her to have such an unfriendly attitude towards him.

"What I want is inside the bathroom." Lu Han was losing his patience and answered.

Guan Tong gritted her teeth. It was too late to put on her prosthetic mask. If Lu Han had found out, she couldn't imagine what was going to happen to her. The sound of Lu Han's footsteps was getting closer. Guan Tong immediately grabbed her prosthetic mask and crouched underwater. As Lu Han pulled open the curtain, he saw no one inside. There was only a tiny bathtub full of bubbles that were almost overflowing.

"Why are you hiding in the water?" Lu Han yelled out in confusion.

Guan Tong was speechless when she heard Lu Han's words. This arrogant man even dared to ask her why she was hiding under the water even though he was the one who barged in during her bath without her consent.

"Come out! There's nothing to be embarrassed about." The bathtub was filled with bubbles. Even if Guan Tong showed her face, Lu Han knew he wouldn't see anything else.

"..." Guan Tong didn't reply to Lu Han's words.

"Just come out!" Lu Han was utterly puzzled. What was wrong with Guan Tong today? She usually wasn't a stubborn girl.

"..." The silence from Guan Tong persisted. Lu Han didn't get anything out of her.

Lu Han didn't see any movement in the still water. It seemed to him that Guan Tong was pushing back against him today. Lu Han frowned. 

He heard that some people could lose their consciousness after falling into a coma after being submerged underwater for too long. He didn't know whether Guan Tong was still safe under the warm water that long. Lu Han worried that she might have fainted after all that time. Lu Han's eyes were filled with worry when he thought of this. He quickly reached out to grab Guan Tong's arm.

At this moment, there was a splash. A human figure jumped out of the water, causing a large amount of water to splash over Lu Han's body. Lu Han quickly retreated, but he was still one step too late. There were bubbles all over his face and clothes, so he quickly covered his eyes with his hands. 

Guan Tong took advantage of this moment to grab her prosthetic mask and picked up the towel beside her as she ran out. Lu Han only saw a shadow flash past him and subconsciously wanted to chase after her, but the piercing pain in his eyes stopped him from doing so. The bubbles that Guan Tong splashed went all over him.

"Ouch!" Lu Han cried out in pain. 

However, Guan Tong had no time to worry about Lu Han. Instead, she ran outside quickly and put on her clothes. She ran far while Lu Han was covering his eyes. Guan Tong was sure that Lu Han hadn't seen her actual appearance and quickly put on her prosthetic mask. Not long after, Lu Han walked, and he looked like a cat thrown in a washing machine. 

 "Why are you running? I wasn't trying anything!" He wasn't happy at all. Instead, he looked visibly upset. Guan Tong noticed his expression and was still worried.

"Who told you to barge in like that without my permission!" Guan Tong refuted.

 "Okay… I was just trying to get my towel. Just go to sleep." Lu Han was annoyed by Guan Tong but tried to laugh it out, and he did not admit that he had other thoughts.

"Oh really?" Guan Tong was puzzled that Lu Han didn't seem to worry, and he was letting her off easily. 

Lu Han took his fresh clothes to shower, and he walked into the same bathroom that Guan Tong had used earlier. She was speechless when she saw Lu Han walk in. She remembered Lu Han being a germaphobe and a hygiene freak.

Just as Guan Tong and Lu Han were about to sleep, Green Bay was in an uproar.

"Miss Qiao, let go of me!" Lin Fei screamed out.

"No! You let go of me first, Miss Lin!" Qiao Ran yelled back.

It turned out that Qiao Ran and Lin Fei were still fighting. Their clothes were already torn apart, and their exquisite hairstyles and makeup became unkempt and unpresentable. The two of them were tugging at each other's hair and pulling each other's clothes apart. None of them was willing to let go.

"Let go of me first!" Qiao Ran screamed again. Since she was young, she had been pampered and had never been in a fight before. She didn't want to stoop to Lin Fei's level, and her lips were already bruised from the fight.

"You first." Lin Fei's condition was only a little better than Qiao Ran's. Qiao Ran had already scratched up Lin Fei's face. The two were almost unrecognizable from the fight and looked completely different from where they started. 

"Why don't I count to three, and we just let go?" Qiao Ran was in so much pain from Lin Fei's grip that tears were coming out of her eyes.

"Fine!" Lin Fei screamed in the stalemate.

"One… two… three!" After Qiao Ran counted to three, the two still were unwilling to let go of each other. Instead, they held onto each other's hair even tighter, causing the two girls to scream out in pain. In the end, Qiao Ran and Lin Fei had to be pulled away by the servants.

"Did Brother Han bring you back here?" Qiao Ran asked, unwilling to give up.

"Why would I lie?" Although Lin Fei was in an apologetic state, she still held her head high and puffed out her chest with a proud look on her face.

"I don't believe you. I'll ask him myself when he comes back later!" Qiao Ran was still not giving up.

Lin Fei's obedient and proper look infuriated Qiao Ran. However, Lin Fei and Qiao Ran waited for Lu Han in the hall for the whole night and did not see him. In the end, the two girls both fell asleep on the sofa.
