Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Wencheng was like a naughty child that threw a stone into the lake just to make the surface of the lake ripple. He turned around and left without hesitation.
Meng Nianyao sat on the edge of the bed. The blood trickling out of her hand had already coagulated into a dark red color. She stared at it for a very long time until Sis Wang came back from the house and called her. She only came back to her senses.
Meng Nianyao was able to eat food that was easily digestible these few days. She had been sick for the past few days, and her already thin face had visibly lost weight. Sis Wang had been thinking about how to make some nutritious food for her every day.
“Madam, it’s time to eat.” Sis Wang took out the food for Meng Nianyao and placed it on the small table outside.
After dinner, Sis Wang went to clear the dishes while Meng Nianyao stood outside to watch the sunset. Slowly, she began to get lost in her thoughts again. She thought about everything that had happened since Meng Haotian cheated on her. She found that the things that had happened in this short period of time seemed to be as long as a century. She even felt that those were all things that happened in her previous life.
Meng Nianyao covered her face with her hands and took a deep breath, trying to get rid of these messy thoughts.
Gu Corporation.
In Gu Wencheng’s office, Ping Yang stood silently in front of Gu Wencheng’s desk. Gu Wencheng looked at the documents in front of him and smiled after a long time. “It seems that things are more interesting than 1 thought.”
Ping Yang did not reply.
Gu Wencheng stood up from behind his desk and walked to the French window, looking at the setting sun that was about to disappear. “Continue to investigate. Don’t alert the enemy,” he said coldly after a long while.
“Yes.” Ping Yang replied. He looked at Gu Wencheng’s slender figure and hesitated for a moment before saying, “What about the lady boss?”
Gu Wencheng turned around.” There’s no need to investigate. The people assigned to her can leave.”
“Understood.” “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first,” said Ping Yang as she kept the documents on her desk.
“Yes.”
“Help me choose a few wedding planning companies in the next few days,” Gu Wencheng suddenly said as Ping Yang walked to the door.
Ping Yang was stunned for a few seconds before she nodded.
Meng Nianyao sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for the entire afternoon. Sis Wang didn’t know what was wrong with her, so she didn’t dare to disturb her or leave. She just watched from afar.
When Gu Wencheng arrived, it was already past nine o’clock in the evening. Meng Nianyao had been sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for almost five hours.
Sis Wang said, “Sir, you’re here. Madam has been sitting there the entire afternoon. She doesn’t even seem to want to talk. I’m sorry, Sir, I…”
“It’s fine.” Gu Wencheng glanced at Meng Nianyao’s back. “You can go back first. I’ll stay in the hospital tonight.”
Sis Wang nodded and quickly left.
Gu Wencheng took off his cold coat and walked over to Meng Nianyao. Meng Nianyao heard his footsteps, but she didn’t turn around or look at him. She sat on the floor in a daze. Gu Wencheng frowned and directly picked her up.
“What are you doing?” Meng Nianyao didn’t expect him to do this, and she subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck.
Gu Wencheng carried her to the ward. “Go to bed. It’s cold outside.” As he spoke, he walked into the ward, bent down slightly, and placed Meng Nianyao on the bed.
Meng Nianyao’s brows were tightly furrowed. Gu Wencheng didn’t let go of her. He looked straight into her eyes and said in a deep voice, “It’s been an afternoon. Have you thought it through?” If you can’t sleep, let’s talk.”
Meng Nianyao’s breath was filled with his scent. The lights in the ward were very bright, and she was forced to look up at him. She could see every expression on his face and every change in his gaze. “Gu Wencheng, do you like me?” she suddenly asked, as if she had been bewitched.
The entire ward was so quiet that they could hear each other’s breathing. Meng Nianyao looked into Gu Wencheng’s eyes, and her breathing slowed down, her hands clenched by her side.
Gu Wencheng looked at her, her figure reflected in his deep eyes. She was small and weak.
“Mrs. Gu.” Gu Wencheng looked at her. “I like you, even though our beginning wasn’t very glorious.”
Meng Nianyao felt that there might be something wrong with her heart. Otherwise, why would her heart beat so fast when she heard Gu Wencheng say that he liked her?
“Are you stupid? Mrs. Gu, you’re back in reality,” Gu Wencheng said with a smile as he looked at Meng Nianyao’s dazed expression.
“You said you wouldn’t love me.” Meng Nianyao looked at Gu Wencheng, and her voice became softer.
“Then do you love me?” Gu Wencheng asked instead of answering..
