Afraid?_1 497: Chapter 338: Whatâs the Matter?
Afraid?_1 âBesides, wasnât this the reason you people showed up in such a grand manner tonight?
Now that Iâve put myself at your mercy, you suddenly donât want me anymore?
Looking down on me?
Looking down because Iâm a divorced woman with a child?â
Guan La chuckled, âIf thatâs the case, why waste your thoughts on me?
Gui Xi, with your qualifications, you can have any woman you want.
Why do you insist on me?
Whatâs so good about me?
Tell me, what is it?
Are you a fool?
Youâre thirty-four now.
You think youâre still a young lad who can play this game with me?
Canât you snap out of it?
There are tons of women giving you the green light, why would you waste your timeâ¦umphâ¦â
Before Guan La could finish her sentence, she felt her slender waist being tightly gripped.
The next second, her lips were sealed, the words she didnât manage to say were fiercely stifled down her throat by the manâs passionate kiss!
â¦
As a surgeon, Gui Xi was skilled and had saved countless lives.
However, he couldnât save himself!
He didnât believe in love at first sight until he met this woman!
Before her, he had several girlfriends, all exceptional, beautiful, and competent.
Still, as he was devoted to his medical studies and hardly invested anything in the emotional aspect of these relationships, they inevitably ended due to loneliness in the end!
Gui Xi never tried to salvage these relationships, figuring that it was just how relationships were.
They come and go, with countless cycles of repetition.
If they didnât want to stay, it was probably because they were not suited for each other!
Between love and medicine, he chose the latter and never regretted it!
In the year he turned twenty-eight, his parents started worrying about his marital status, but he was oblivious.
He thought, why the rush to get married before thirty?
He didnât care, truly didnât care!
Then, that same year, he met Guan La.
At the time, Guan La was just twenty-two!
At first glance, he found her to be efficient and competent.
Despite her young age, she exuded a strong, independent womanâs aura!
She was a career-oriented woman, or rather, a girl!
Gradually he noticed her, but didnât exactly âlikeâ her!
They knew each other for a few years as friends without anything special occurring.
He also noticed how Guan La looked at Yinchu, a little differently!
It was normal.
Lu Yinchu was a man who naturally drew womenâs attention.
Guan La liking him was only natural!
However, Yinchuâs heart already belonged to someone else.
He knew, and she knew it too.
He silently watched from the sidelines, secretly hoping she could melt that cold corner of Yinchuâs heart so the two of them could come together!
But no progress was made in three years.
Considering how close Yinchu was getting to Han Qing, he knew that Guan La likely had no chance!
Under these circumstances, he made a mistake.
He confessed to her, something he still regrets today!
His words were plain, âIf you look past Yinchu, there are still many other suitable suitors around you for marriage, such as meâ¦what do you think?
Will you consider it?â
At the time, Guan La just smiled faintly and didnât say a word before kissing him.
She asked him, âHow do you feel about my kiss?â
He touched her soft hair, smiling slightly, âWhat feeling are you talking about?â
âNaturally, the romantic feelingâ¦â She curved her rosy lips and looked at him, âYour heart will race, your face will become red, you wonât be able to control your nervousness, and, your body will have a certain reactionâ¦â
She reached for his trousers, the corners of her red lips curving into a beautiful arc!
Gui Xi laughed, âFirstly, a heartbeat is the most basic physiological function that every living person has, so naturally, my heart will beat.
And as for blushing, medically speaking, whenever a person experiences emotions like nervousness or excitement, it reflexively excites the sympathetic nervous system.
This triggers the increased secretion of catecholamines such as norepinephrine, causing a faster heart rate, high blood pressure, and vasodilation, which shows asâ¦blushing.
As for that physical response you mentioned, I thinkâ¦â
âYou donât have to think, letâs try it and find out!â Having said that, she kissed him again!
He had no reason to resist, and the two ended up having a wild night!
He remembers at the peak of passion when he was about to lose his mind, she suddenly pushed him away, rummaged through her bag for a box of Durex and gave it to him.
He was stunned for a moment, then took it and put one on!
At that moment, he really wanted to say, âDonât bother, if we get pregnant, letâs keep it!â
But in the end, he didnât, and felt somewhat uncomfortable about the Durex in her bag!
After the passionate encounter, he thought their relationship might have changed.
Were they now a couple?
Lovers?
Or something else?
But to his surprise, after she finished showering and came out, she only said one thing: âIâm not a good woman, but youâre a good man.
Iâm glad that you like me.
I canât offer you a lifetime, only this one night.
So, from today onwards as we walk out of this room, letâs remain friends, and also, forget about tonight.â
He wanted to lash out then, but before he could start, Guan Laâs voice rang again, âYou should know, I like Yinchu.
Even though I know itâs impossible, I will still like him.
So please donât make things difficult for me.
Letâs part on good terms.â
Given this, what more could he say?
That moment, he felt very aggrieved.
At 31 years old, he was young and accomplished, a well-known surgeon both at home and abroad~
He was decisive and efficient in the operating room, never messing up, but at that moment that day, he was utterly defeated in front of a woman!
But he didnât expect that Guan La would soon choose to be married.
The groom was neither Lu Yinchu nor himself, but a man who came out of nowhere!
Guan La introduced him as her old crush.
The two reacquainted and hit it off instantly, so they decided to elope!
That moment, he felt as if he had been fiercely slapped, a very painful one!
Guan Laâs marriage didnât last long.
Even while she was still pregnant, the man had an affair.
Thus, Guan La chose to divorce!
A marriage, that lasted less than seven months!
He then found her and asked her why she treated him like this!
Guan La laughed good-naturedly, âThereâs no reason â itâs just bad luck!
But luckily, he left me with a child!â
She reached out to touch her protruding belly.
At that moment, Gui Xi felt the woman in front of him and her belly were so harsh to his eyes!
In the following three years, he seemed to have no changes at all; he was still the gentle and cultured surgeon, still living a shiny and radiant life.
His relationship with Guan La remained in an awkward state!
Just like she said, they were still friends with each other!
But, could he really treat her as a friend?
Seemingly he could, but it was just a semblance!
Some feelings could not be described why, some people might not be so good, but the feeling she gave you was just unforgettable, unforgettable no matter what!
Now he was 34 years old.
After a lengthy walk of life, many things had settled little by little under the grind of time.
His mind became quieter and peaceful~
He even sometimes thought that it wouldnât be bad to live a calm life by himself!
Just like tonight.
Before coming out, he was still hesitant and uncertain.
Even when she suggested parking the car in the open-air park, he felt it all unreal!
He was really angry, for the six similar years, he had never really lost temper at her once.
When she said part on good terms, he bottled up his fatigue deeply inside.
When she walked down the aisle with another person, he only kept his helplessness to himself.
When she chose to divorce while she was heavily pregnant, he locked himself in the apartment for three days without going out!
He never had the heart to hurt her, but what he feared the most is her hurting herself!
He kissed her angrily, holding her hands against her head and fiercely ravaging her swollen lips.
The heat rose violently, overwhelming the nerves of the two.
He felt like he was going crazy, and she felt the sameâ¦
She looked at him with wide-opened eyes, disbelief in her eyes, but her lips being kissed by him, she couldnât say a word!
Because of the hurry, she bit him on the lip.
At that moment, a pair of soft hands touched his hand.
He was stunned for a moment, then he released her lips and looked at her!
She panted lightly and continued regardlessly taking off his clothes!
She lifted her head to look at him, âWhat, you donât dare anymore?â
As soon as her words fell, the manâs lips covered hers again.
The next second, the familiar tightness instantaneously attacked his cortex, making him uncontrollably groanâ¦
And Guan La bit her lips, trying hard not to make a soundâ¦
This was after three years, the two were tightly close to each other again, without any gap!
The memories from that encounter three years ago came back again attacking the senses of the two.
She wrapped her arm around his neck, very cooperatively meeting his kiss!
At that moment, in this world, only him and her remained, and the thin line ofâ¦
love between them!
Actually, Gui Xi didnât know after this passionate love, would it be like three years ago?
Her saying âConsider it as the return of your three years of waiting patientlyâ as if nothing had happened!
But now, he didnât have time to think so much, there was only one voice in his mind echoing!
ââDesire her!
Desperately, desire her!
