âMr. Guâ¦â When Gu Yusheng passed him by, Xiaowang wanted to remind Gu Yusheng again. However, when he had just spoken two words, Gu Yushengâs cold eyes shot at him, frightening him to close his mouth and turn around. Facing the wall, Xiaowang stood still.
Gu Yusheng sat on the edge of the bed and handed the warm water to Qin Zhiâai. âDrink some warm water, and your stomach should feel better.â
âThank you.â Qin Zhiâai took the glass and drank nearly half of it in one gulp. Then she saw Gu Yusheng sitting on the edge of the bed, still having no intentions to leave. Thinking of Xiaowangâs urging, she held the glass and said, âIâm fine. Iâll feel better after a while. Donât you have a meeting later? Go ahead.â
Gu Yusheng responded, âOkay.â Staring at Qin Zhiâai, he still hadnât gotten up yet.
Being stared at by Gu Yusheng, Qin Zhiâai felt a little bit embarrassed, so she lowered her eyes to look at the glass in her hand. After a while, she urged him again, âIâm really fine. You can go to workâ¦â
Gu Yusheng suddenly reached out and snatched away the glass in her palm to place it on the bedside table. Then she grabbed her hand and gently rubbed it in his palm. Finally, he rubbed her fingers with his fingertips and said in a gentle voice, âDonât take the medicine anymore.â
âBut what if I get pregnant?â
âIf you get pregnant, thenâ¦â Without almost any hesitation, Gu Yusheng answered her question but stopped halfway through the statement.
If you get pregnant, then weâll have a child⦠He was surprised that he wanted to say these words to her.
He knew clearly that he liked her very much⦠And actually he liked her much more than he had expected.
He was a man who hadnât wanted to get married all his life. In his mind, the most bothersome thing was to get married and have children, but at that moment, he found that he actually had the impulse to have a child with her in his lifetime.
What should I do? It seems that my affection towards her is not just simply liking or even liking her very much.
Soon, Gu Yusheng pulled himself back to reality and squeezed her soft little hand gently. He said again, âIn short, you shouldnât take that medicine.â
After a pause, Gu Yusheng asked, âAside from the bottle of medicine that I threw away, is there any more at home?â
âNo,â Qin Zhiâai shook her head.
âReally?â Gu Yusheng was afraid that she had hidden the medicine. After asking the question, he released her hand and went around the bedroom, rummaging through the room to look for the medicine. Finally, he even lifted the carpet to look for it.
Sitting in the bed, Qin Zhiâai was somewhat speechless. The carpet was so flat that with only a look, one could see there was nothing under it. Why did he have to lift it to check?
Qin Zhiâai couldnât help whispering, âI really have no more medicine. I only bought one bottle.â
Gu Yusheng exclaimed âohâ to show his understanding, but still bent over, repeatedly checking places under the carpet and under the bed. After he confirmed that there was no medicine, he stood up and sat back on the bed.
Qin Zhiâai looked at Xiaowang, who was standing in the corridor. He was clearly very worried, but didnât dare to urge Gu Yusheng again. Finally, she couldnât bear to see the worried Xiaowang, so she said for the third time, âJust go to work.â
âOkay, donât worry.â
Not caring about what she said, Gu Yusheng replied to her with three careless words. Then he stayed at the bedside without worry and panic. He stayed there until the housekeeper came. After asking the housekeeper to prepare some light food at noon, he left for the company.
After the meeting, it was already one oâclock in the afternoon. Gu Yusheng felt worried about Qin Zhiâai, so after returning to the office, his first thought was to call home.
