Meng Nianyao looked into his eyes and remained silent. Gu Wencheng saw her expression and smiled. “Mrs. Gu, I’m fine. How painful can it be?”
Meng Nianyao forced a smile.
“Mrs. Gu, do you know that your smile isn’t very nice?” Gu Wencheng laughed.
“I thought you would say that my smile was ugly.” Meng Nianyao knew that Gu Wencheng was teasing her. There were some things he didn’t want to say, so she didn’t pry further.
“You look good no matter what.” Gu Wencheng smiled and reached out to touch Meng Nianyao’s arm. It wasn’t cold anymore. “Let’s go home,” he said.
Meng Nianyao didn’t say anything. Gu Wencheng looked at her and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Meng Nianyao shook her head. “1 thought you wanted to be alone for a while.”
“No need. I feel better with you around.”
Meng Nianyao was speechless. “Your words don’t sound like you.”
“Oh?”
“You’re usually very aloof. Although you like to tease me with your words, it’s just a few words.” Therefore, whenever he called her Mrs. Gu, she would find it very sweet of him.
Gu Wencheng narrowed his eyes and slowly approached Meng Nianyao. Just when she thought he would do something, Gu Wencheng suddenly turned around and said, “Mrs. Gu, look.”
Meng Nianyao looked over and saw a shooting star streaking across the sky.
“A shooting star?” Meng Nianyao was surprised. Gu Wencheng grabbed her chin and kissed her when she was caught off guard. Meng Nianyao slowly closed her shocked eyes and enjoyed the moment when their lips touched.
Meng Nianyao didn’t have a good sleep; she’d caught a cold from the wind at the beach. Gu Wencheng discovered that she had a low fever in the evening and gave her the most basic physical cooling. When it was almost dawn, her temperature rose again despite his efforts to bring it down, so he had no choice but to call Su Han.
Su Han completely lost his temper when he came over to give Meng Nianyao an IV drip. He didn’t say anything else. “You watch. I’ll go to the guest room to catch up on my sleep.”
After the IV drip, Meng Nianyao also woke up. Gu Wencheng was watching her from the bedside and she saw him as soon as she opened her eyes. Meng Nianyao didn’t even know that she had a fever, so she was a little surprised to see Gu Wencheng looking at her. “What’s wrong?”
“You have a fever.”
“Fever?” Meng Nianyao frowned and thought for a moment. She only knew that she slept very uncomfortably last night, but she didn’t expect that she’d developed a fever. She raised her hand, wanting to brush away the hair on her face. Then, she saw the medical tape on the back of her hand.
Meng Nianyao put down her hand and looked at Gu Wencheng. “Did I wake you up again last night?”
Gu Wencheng sat down by the bed. He held Meng Nianyao’s hand and rubbed it with his thumb. “No. Does it hurt?”
Meng Nianyao looked at her hand that was held by Gu Wencheng. The back of her fair hand was green and purple. Because her hand was pale, it looked shocking. She nodded.” It hurts.”
“If it hurts, run with me in the future.” “Mrs. Gu, your body is too weak. “Gu Wencheng looked up at Meng Nianyao.
Meng Nianyao was speechless. Actually, she did not know why her body was so weak. It seemed that she had been like this for as long as she could remember. That was why when she was in the orphanage, the children who were about her age were all adopted, but no one was willing to adopt her.
Gu Wencheng touched Meng Nianyao’s forehead. “Sleep a little longer. My fever has just subsided. I still have something to do at the company, so I have to go there first.”
Meng Nianyao nodded and watched Gu Wencheng leave. Sis Wang made porridge for her. After drinking half a bowl, she fell asleep in a daze until her phone rang.
Meng Nianyao was woken up. She reached for her phone. Fu Yi’s voice came from the other end. “Meng Nianyao, you haven’t been to the company for nine days. Can 1 take this as a disguised form of surrender and resignation?”
When Meng Nianyao heard Fu Yi’s voice, she took a few seconds to recover from her shock. She propped herself up and waited for Fu Yi to finish before she slowly opened her mouth. “Who told you that I admitted defeat?”
“Meng Nianyao, don’t force yourself if you can’t do it.” Fu Yi’s voice was filled with pride and certainty.
Meng Nianyao closed her eyes and massaged the space between her eyebrows. Then we’ll see who loses.” After saying that, she hung up the phone. She threw her phone on the bed and lay down again. After a few seconds, she got up again and brought her laptop to the bed..
