Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Rong Yu shook his head and forced a smile. “No, I’m not a child. Why would I be angry over such a small matter? Don’t overthink it. You’ve been busy all day today. Get some rest.”
Gu Qingchen’s eyes fixed on Rong Yu’s. She believed that Rong Yu was not angry with her, but she could tell that something must have happened to Rong Yu.
But what was it? Gu Qingchen was confused.
Oh no! Was Rong Yu feeling unwell again?
Gu Qingchen remembered that the last time Rong Yu took a shower, she had also asked a few times outside the bathroom door. Rong Yu had been holding back but refused to tell her. Could it be that Rong Yu was also unwell today?!!
Thinking of this, Gu Qingchen immediately became nervous. She quickly stood up and almost instantly told Rong Yu about it. Without saying a word, she took Rong Yu’s hand and checked Rong Yu’s pulse.
Although Rong Yu’s pulse was still a little weak, it was still okay. It should not be an attack.
But if it was not an attack, what was the reason? Gu Qingchen was puzzled.
Seeing that Gu Qingchen had checked her pulse, Rong Yu turned his wrist and pulled his hand back. He smiled and said, “You do the acupuncture for me every night. I feel much better. You don’t have to do it today. Doctor Gu, you can go rest now.”
Gu Qingchen could not understand why Rong Yu was acting strangely. She could only nod and return to her room to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Gu Qingchen lay on the bed. She found it strange that Rong Yu had not come in yet.
She tossed and turned on the bed for a long time. It had only been a few days, and she was not used to not having Rong Yu by her side.
Gu Qingchen could not fall asleep, so she got up and scratched her head. After a moment of hesitation, she decided to get off the bed and walk to the door that connected to Rong Yu’s room. After some thought, she raised her hand and knocked on the door a few times.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
The sound was very soft, but in the quiet room, it was very clear.
She had only knocked a few times, but she did not expect to hear some movements from Rong Yu’s room. It was the movement of Rong Yu’s wheelchair. Then, the door in the middle opened.
Gu Qingchen was in pajamas. She scratched her head a few times just now, so her hair was as messy as a chicken coop. Her expression was a little dull. She probably did not expect Rong Yu to be in his room.
Rong Yu looked at Gu Qingchen with deep eyes. No one could guess what he was thinking.
“Can’t sleep?” The two of them looked at each other awkwardly for a few seconds. Rong Yu spoke first. His voice was still very magnetic.
Gu Qingchen nodded and said, “Aren’t you going to rest?”
Rong Yu stared at Gu Qingchen for a long time before a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. There seemed to be some emotions in his smile that Gu Qingchen could not understand.
“Are you inviting me to sleep with you?” His voice was light and carried a fatal temptation.
Gu Qingchen was stunned. She wanted to refute, but she realized that she couldn’t. Because from the root of the matter, she was indeed inviting Rong Yu to sleep with her.
Gu Qingchen realized she could not play word games with Rong Yu because Rong Yu could get her with just a few sentences.
“What I mean is, although your health has improved a lot in the past few days, I have to ensure that you sleep well. Otherwise, my treatment for so many days will be in vain!”
Fortunately, she was only stunned for a moment and quickly found an excuse.
Rong Yu did not take it seriously, as if he did not accept Gu Qingchen’s excuse at all. He stubbornly believed that Gu Qingchen was asking him to sleep with her.
Looking at Rong Yu’s expression, Gu Qingchen felt powerless. Well, in front of Rong Yu, any excuse was useless.
Rong Yu was a professional psychologist. Even Gu Qingchen’s mind reading could not work on him. She could not read Rong Yu’s mind, but Rong Yu could guess what she was thinking.
There was a saying, “One thing restraint another”. She admitted it.
“I’ve been busy with work recently. I have a lot of things to do. You should go to sleep first.” Rong Yu did not lie to Gu Qingchen. He did have something to deal with recently.
Gu Qingchen glanced at Rong Yu’s desk and found that there were indeed a lot of documents and a computer on it.
However, she still frowned and said, “There are so many documents. How long do you need to finish them? Staying up late is not good for your health at all. What’s so urgent?”
This was the first time Gu Qingchen saw Rong Yu working. In the past, she always thought that Rong Yu did not have to do anything but sit there.
This was the first time she had seen Rong Yu at work after she had moved in, so she was not used to it.
“Yes, it’s a little tricky and needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. Don’t worry. I won’t stay up for too long. I’ll take a look and go back to sleep in a while. Be good, go to sleep first.”
In the end, Rong Yu used an extremely gentle tone to comfort Gu Qingchen, which made Gu Qingchen feel a little embarrassed. Instead, she felt that she would be insensible if she stopped Rong Yu.
Therefore, she could only give up and give Rong Yu some advice before returning to bed. Rong Yu also closed the door and went back to do his work.
Gu Qingchen lay on the bed and looked at the empty bed. For the first time, she felt that the bed was a little big. It was a little empty to sleep alone.
After tossing and turning for a long time, Gu Qingchen did not fall asleep. In her daze, she felt that the other side of the bed had sunk in. There was a trace of heat behind her, and she finally fell asleep in peace.
Rong Yu, who had just laid down, turned to look at Gu Qingchen who was curled up. He sighed slightly, then reached out his hand and wrapped it around Gu Qingchen’s waist. He found a comfortable position and closed his eyes.
The next morning, when Gu Qingchen woke up, she found that there was no one beside her. Rong Yu had already woken up.
She remembered that Rong Yu had come to sleep last night, but at that time, she was in a daze and did not speak to Rong Yu.
It was so early in the morning. Why was Rong Yu up so early today?
Gu Qingchen got out of bed and washed up. After changing her clothes, she went to knock on the door of Rong Yu’s room.
As expected, it opened again.
Rong Yu was already fully dressed. It was completely different from the expression of Gu Qingchen who had just woken up. One look and one could tell that he had woken up very early.
“Why are you up so early?” Gu Qingchen was a little surprised.
“Yes, I woke up early to handle some business.”
Gu Qingchen was a little surprised. She tilted her head to look at the table. She saw that there was another stack of documents on it. Her eyes were a little shocked. “You haven’t finished your work yet? Why are there so many more?”
It was tons of workload. Gu Qingchen looked at Rong Yu sympathetically and sighed. “The primary school students nowadays are not as miserable as you.”
Everyone knew how heavy the homework burden of primary school students was. The so-called burden reduction was nowhere to be found.
Rong Yu could not help but smile and raised his hand to scratch Gu Qingchen’s nose, “Primary school students don’t need to get up early to make breakfast for you. Taste my cooking.”
