"You two poor lovers, he's back and you'll be leaving again. This betrothal arranged for your child is quite a trial. I wish you success in confessing your feelings," Ye Wan teased with a smile.
When Gu Yunting pushed the door open, he saw the faint smile on her face, and his heart suddenly pounded fiercely.
"Boohoo, thank you for your good wishes, but Wan, I'm still so scared. I'm too cowardly. I'm afraid Senior Chu won't accept me. Will you accompany me to confess then, please!" Jiang Yan pleaded.
"I don't think that's a good idea," Ye Wan felt her face brought her convenience, but also a lot of trouble. She didn't want to lose Jiang Yan as a friend.
"There's nothing wrong with it. Don't worry. If Senior Chu falls in love with you at first sight, then I'll... I'll give up on him! Such a shallow person, I don't want him anyway!" Jiang Yan certainly didn't want to be a love-struck fool like Jiang Lingyu.
"No, I meant it would be better to see each other *after* you've successfully confessed," Ye Wan said, rolling over. She saw the man standing at the door, her smile immediately vanished, and she said, "I have something to do here, let's talk later."
Ye Wan quickly hung up the phone and sat up nervously, blinking. "Something wrong?"
"Can't I come in and see you if nothing's wrong? Don't forget, this is Gu Residence," Gu Yunting walked in, his expression somewhat displeased.
Smiling brightly on the phone with her classmate, and looking at him like he was a monster. Was he that scary?
"Oh," Ye Wan responded faintly, then lay down to continue reading. Since he had said that, what else could she say?
Gu Yunting...
He walked over, snatched the book from Ye Wan's hand, and tossed it aside. He then reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Ye Wan quickly pushed him away. "I... my stomach feels a bit uncomfortable."
"As long as you're good, I'll be gentle," Gu Yunting soothed, kissing her eyelashes, her brow, the tip of her nose, and then her somewhat dry lips.
Ye Wan truly didn't know how to be "good." She could only clutch his clothes and close her eyes.
...
Gu Yunting carried Ye Wan to the dining room. That bout had consumed a lot of energy. Ye Wan had indeed been a 'good girl,' lying on his shoulder as he held her. She was completely exhausted, not a trace of strength left, not even wanting to move her fingers.
Moreover, this dog man's promise of gentleness only lasted in the beginning. Afterward, he wasn't gentle at all.
"Feeling unwell again?" Gu Yunting frowned, looking at the weak woman in his arms, unable to understand why she was always in so much pain.
He had been shown some things by Jin Lan, and women didn't react like this.
Ye Wan let out a weak hum, completely unwilling to engage with him.
"Why are you so delicate?"
Ye Wan was so angry she wanted to hit him, but she truly had no strength. Closing her eyes, she ignored him. When she didn't have a car, she could walk for four or five hours back. She didn't consider herself delicate.
"Let's eat first," Gu Yunting brought over a bowl of shredded chicken congee, scooped a spoonful, blew on it, and brought it to Ye Wan's lips.
"I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat," Ye Wan felt incredibly awkward, but she truly had no strength to eat right now. She felt like her bones were soft.
"If you don't eat, I don't mind feeding you in a different way." Gu Yunting was about to put the spoon into his own mouth. Ye Wan, realizing how he intended to feed her, quickly bit down on the spoon and ate the congee herself.
