Chapter 1127 - I’ll Just Get Uncle Qingcheng to Become My Husband!

To be sleeping right after eating in the middle of the night, Auntie Li was afraid that they wouldn’t be able to digest other foods well.

Because it was in the middle of the night, after Auntie Li prepared the food, Gu Qingcheng asked her to go back and rest quickly.

When they were eating, Yun Liuli’s face looked rather pale still. But since it was at that spot, Gu Qingcheng couldn’t very well ask her in a blatant manner. He only said, “When you get up in the morning tomorrow, I’ll take you for a checkup at the hospital!”

“No need…” Holding her chopsticks, Yun Liuli raised her bowl and took a sip of the soup. “I used to feel pain too. It’s fine after Mommy rubs it for me! Uncle Qingcheng, the next time it hurts, there’s no need for so much trouble. Just help me rub it, and I’ll be fine!”

Rub…

Gu Qingcheng’s scalp tightened.

“Liuli, Uncle Qingcheng is a man, and you’re a girl. So, if it hurts the next time, we can ask Auntie Li to come and help you rub it.”

Yun Liuli pouted and said against her conscience, “I don’t like it when people I’m not familiar with touch me!”

Gu Qingcheng set down his chopsticks, feeling that there were some things he ought to say to Yun Liuli. “Liuli… Uncle Qingcheng is a man, while you’re a girl. There’s a need to observe the boundaries between a man and a woman. So… in the future, don’t ever take off your clothes in front of a man, much less let a man other than your husband touch you, understand?”

Yun Liuli stared at Gu Qingcheng with her black and bright eyes. She asked, “Is it because Uncle Qingcheng isn’t my husband, is that why you can’t help me rub it?”

Gu Qingcheng nodded.

“That’s easy then! I’ll just get Uncle Qingcheng to become my husband!” Yun Liuli answered naively.

Gu Qingcheng’s heart pounded wildly, uncontrollably.

Their gazes met. Yun Liuli’s gaze was so clean it made one terrified.

“I can’t. I’m your… elder!” Gu Qingcheng found it hard to say this out loud.

“Can’t an elder be my husband?” Yun Liuli’s brows were furrowed.

Gu Qingcheng shook his head.

“Why?”

How was Gu Qingcheng going to explain the concept of an elder who wasn’t blood-related to her…

He wasn’t willing to argue with Yun Liuli on this matter, so he lied about having work to do and returned to his room first.

Yun Liuli finished her soup in an unhurried manner. When she returned to Gu Qingcheng’s room, she laid on the bed and saw that Gu Qingcheng was still pretending to be working. She didn’t pester Gu Qingcheng this time, laying down to sleep by herself instead.

Because of the fiasco last night, Yun Liuli got up late the next morning. By the time she woke up, it was already 11 am.

Gu Qingcheng asked Auntie Li to tidy up the study and shifted his work to the study so that he wouldn’t disrupt Yun Liuli’s rest.

Also, Gu Qingcheng had his own plans…

Yun Liuli was a young lady. When she came over and delicately asked him if she could sleep with him, could Gu Qingcheng forbid her from doing so?

Since he wasn’t able to refuse those watery eyes of hers, he would say yes, then work all night in the study. That way, he would be able to avoid Yun Liuli!

With such an idea in mind, when night came, and when Yun Liuli arrived and said that she wanted to sleep with him again, Gu Qingcheng asked her to sleep first, saying that he still had to finish up some work.

Yun Liuli was obedient. She climbed onto Gu Qingcheng’s large bed, but after staying awake until 2 am, Yun Liuli sensed that something was amiss.

When she went to Gu Qingcheng’s study, she heard the sound of him typing, so she assumed she was overthinking things. She returned to his bedroom, and in no time, she fell asleep.

When she woke up the next morning, Yun Liuli glanced at the pillow next to her and saw that there were no signs that Gu Qingcheng returned to sleep last night.

Yun Liuli got up with a dark face. After washing up, she looked at her reflection in the mirror and smiled.

Actually, she saw this coming, that Gu Qingcheng would avoid her!

But Yun Liuli understood Gu Qingcheng well, so she was especially good at forcing him. She wasn’t anxious at all. She still had a strong drug waiting for Gu Qingcheng…

When Gu Qingcheng went to his study that night under the excuse of working again, although Yun Liuli wasn’t too happy about it, she still nodded.

Thinking he managed to fool the young lady, Gu Qingcheng washed up in the study, then rested in the study after finishing up his work.

Yun Liuli went to the study with her pillow and placed her pillow on the floor, then curled up and slept outside the door.

This was called a trick to gain an end by enduring bodily suffering. Yun Liuli was bent on snagging Gu Qingcheng eventually, and since she had started, she wasn’t willing to stop.

Yun Liuli was incredibly patient. She had waited for so many years, so she didn’t care about waiting a few more days. Somehow, she would have a way of breaking down Gu Qingcheng.

She closed her eyes. The floor was slightly cold. She could already imagine Gu Qingcheng’s expression when he saw her sleeping outside the study like this the next morning.

With a smile on her face and holding her phone as she played Tetris, she started to feel sleepy, her eyelids feeling heavy. She locked her phone screen and fell asleep on the floor.

Without Yun Liuli hugging his arm, Gu Qingcheng still found it hard to fall asleep.

The instant he closed his eyes, all he could see was Yun Liuli. The more he spent time with her, the lower his bottom line towards her was…n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

It could even be said that over these few days, Yun Liuli had been stepping on Gu Qingcheng’s bottom line, making it lower and lower.

At dawn, Gu Qingcheng came out of his study. The moment he opened the door, he saw Yun Liuli sleeping outside the study. The young lady looked like an abandoned puppy, curled up at the door. His heart tightened instantly.

“Xiao Liuli…” Gu Qingcheng squatted down, frowning hard. “Xiao Liuli!”

Yun Liuli opened her eyes in a half-awake, half-asleep state and rubbed them. Upon seeing Gu Qingcheng… even though she was clearly still sleepy, she flashed a vibrant smile. “Uncle Qingcheng, you’re done with your work! Then let’s go back to the bedroom to sleep!”

That meant… Yun Liuli had been waiting there for him the entire night?

Gu Qingcheng’s throat lightly vibrated. He unconsciously clasped his hands together, his heart aching for her.

“You’ve been here… waiting the entire night?” There was a raspiness in Gu Qingcheng’s deep voice.

The young lady rubbed her eyes and sat up. “The entire night?”

She turned around to look outside the French windows and realized it was already morning…

“Uncle Qingcheng, you’ve been working the entire night?” The young lady stared at Gu Qingcheng, clearly feeling heartache for him. “Then… then you’d better go back to the bedroom quickly and sleep a little!”

Yun Liuli struggled to stand up while holding onto Gu Qingcheng, then tried to pull him into the bedroom. Gu Qingcheng remained frozen, feeling terribly guilty.

Unable to move Gu Qingcheng, Yun Liuli turned around. She didn’t see fatigue in Gu Qingcheng’s eyes from staying up all night. Her lips moved a little, and then her fair hands slowly let go of Gu Qingcheng’s clothes, limping lifelessly by her sides.

Gu Qingcheng’s throat vibrated. He said, “You go back to the room and sleep for a while!”

“Uncle Qingcheng…” The young lady called out to Gu Qingcheng softly. She asked timidly, “Last night… you slept in the study, didn’t you?”

Gu Qingcheng could hear that the young lady was trying her best to hold back her tears. He nodded.
