Huo Sicheng gently raised his hand and stroked Gu Qingcheng’s long, jet-black hair.
His eyes were filled with tender emotions, gazing at her.
If she hadn’t seen the red mark on his collar, he wouldn’t have noticed it himself.
After carrying her to the hospital room, he remained by her side without leaving for a single moment.
He was afraid, afraid of losing her.
Fortunately, she was safe and sound.
But he wouldn’t tell her about how he almost beat the man who had thrown her off the cliff to death in his anger.
He changed the subject, responding softly, “I haven’t had a chance to change clothes while staying by your side.”
“Here are two options for you.” Clever as Gu Qingcheng was, she wouldn’t continue questioning Huo Sicheng. She spoke softly, “Either lie down with me now and sleep, or take a shower and then come to sleep with me.”
After hearing this, Huo Sicheng leaned down and lightly kissed Gu Qingcheng’s swollen lips.
“I’ll take a shower. You go ahead and rest.”
“I’ll wait for you.”
Huo Sicheng saw determination in Gu Qingcheng’s eyes and reluctantly responded, “Alright.”
Soon, Huo Sicheng changed into clean clothes and returned to the hospital room.
“I’ve been waiting for you.” When Gu Qingcheng saw Huo Sicheng entering, she couldn’t hold on any longer and fell into a deep sleep.
Huo Sicheng felt extreme tenderness and lay down gently beside Gu Qingcheng.
He really wanted to hold her in his arms, but her body was covered in injuries, and any touch from him would increase her pain.
This night, after several days of sleepless vigil, he still couldn’t sleep; he just wanted to quietly stay by her side.
Only when she was safe could he be at ease.
However, the thought of the person who dared to harm Gu Qingcheng made a trace of anger flash in his narrowed phoenix-like eyes.
Gu Qingcheng wasn’t staying in the hospital; she was residing in a villa by the lake and mountains.
It was more accurate to call it a private hospital owned by Huo Sicheng. The most advanced medical equipment in the world was available here.
Doctors were at Gu Qingcheng’s service 24 hours a day.
“I want…” Gu Qingcheng looked at Huo Sicheng, “call a nurse in.” Huo Sicheng asked Gu Qingcheng first, “What do you want to do?”
Blushing, Gu Qingcheng said, “I need to use the restroom.”
Upon hearing this, Huo Sicheng reached out with his long arm, wanting to carry Gu Qingcheng.
With wide eyes, Gu Qingcheng stared, “What are you doing?”
“Taking you to the restroom.” Huo Sicheng calmly looked at Gu Qingcheng,
“There are no women here.”
“But there’s no need for you to carry me.” Huo Sicheng had already carefully picked up Gu Qingcheng, “I’ll take you to the restroom.”
“Ah… don’t…” Gu Qingcheng blushed, wishing she could find a hole to hide in, “Huo Sicheng… I have my pride…”
“I’ve seen every inch of you.” Huo Sicheng leaned closer to Gu Qingcheng, his
words carrying a touch of ambiguity, “My Qingcheng…”
Embarrassed, Gu Qingcheng buried her head in Huo Sicheng’s embrace.
“Huo Sicheng… you’re bullying me…”
“I never bully you. It’s you who bullies me every day.” Huo Sicheng tenderly placed Gu Qingcheng gently on the toilet seat, then lifted her skirt.
All the awkwardness Gu Qingcheng had felt in front of Huo Sicheng before seemed insignificant compared to the embarrassment she felt now.
This could be considered the most awkward moment of her life.
She was so ashamed that she couldn’t even look at Huo Sicheng.
Huo Sicheng carried Gu Qingcheng back to the bed.
“You’ll need to rest for a while.” He broke the awkward silence, “You don’t have to go to the Peach Blossom Cup the day after tomorrow.”
With her head buried in the blanket, Gu Qingcheng couldn’t muster the courage to meet Huo Sicheng’s eyes.
But when she heard his words, she peeked out from under the blanket, looking at him with embarrassed eyes.
“I can’t skip the Peach Blossom Cup.” Her tone was firm, “I value the Peach Blossom Cup very much and have never missed it.”
“Your injuries are severe.” Huo Sicheng’s voice softened as he persuaded Gu Qingcheng, “You can’t risk damaging your body for the sake of the Peach
Blossom Cup. If you’re not worried, I am.”
Looking at the concern and tenderness in Huo Sicheng’s eyes, Gu Qingcheng knew she was seriously injured due to her encounter with Chu He. Participating in the Peach Blossom Cup forcefully would indeed be painful.
But she had to investigate the incident of her kidney transplant during the Peach Blossom Cup years ago, so she had to go.
“Just let me go, okay?” She coquettishly pouted at him, her voice soft, “Promise me, and I won’t let anything like this happen again.”
Huo Sicheng found Gu Qingcheng’s coaxing irresistible.
Yet, he couldn’t shake off the fear he felt at the thought of seeing her on the verge of death.
“No.” He firmly refused, “No matter what you say, it’s not happening.”
“Little Huo Huo…” Gu Qingcheng stretched out her hand with bandages still wrapped around it to touch Huo Sicheng, her eyes exuding a soft and alluring charm. “Please. iust agree. Let me handle this mvself. I Dromise I won’t let this
happen again.”
She didn’t wait for his response before adding, “You know I’m worried about you. But I have my own thoughts. If I wanted them dead, they would’ve been dead long ago. Can you trust me? Can you trust me, my little Huo Huo?”
With every word Gu Qingcheng spoke, it was as though she was casting a spell, making it impossible for Huo Sicheng to resist her cajoling.
He wondered if she coquetted with Qi Shaoze in the same way?
Thinking about her acting like this with Qi Shaoze, a pang of jealousy stirred within him.
However, he fought hard to suppress his feelings of jealousy.
What bothered him even more was that beneath Gu Qingcheng’s coquettishness, a surge of masculine desire was welling up.
He loosened his tie in frustration, feeling an intense heat coursing through his body.
Damn it.
Did she have any idea how captivating she was right now? How much he wanted to devour her?
“Little Huo Huo…” Gu Qingcheng, seeing Huo Sicheng’s reaction, flirted with him, her eyes filled with a playful glint, “You’re the most handsome, the best big handsome guy in the world. My affection for you is like an unending river.. Will you agree to my request, pretty please?”
