The night extended beautifully and continuously.
Gu Yuan lay on the bed, unable to move, her eyes shimring like they had been washed in water. She raised her lotus-white arm to stop his hand: "No..."
He ignored her resistance and pushed her nightgown upward.
A very faint scar below her abdon ca into view. Chi Yu’s eyes reddened, and his palm reached over, slowly covering the light-colored scar on Gu Yuan’s lower abdon, gently stroking it.
Gu Yuan knew what he was looking at—the scar from her C-section.
At that ti, she used an excellent scar removal cream, and as ti passed, it had faded to the point where it was hard to see unless closely examined.
She held the hand that covered her scar, her voice soft: "Why are you making that face? In about a year, this scar will completely fade and be invisible. It’s really nothing."
"Did it hurt?"
She knew he was asking about that ti.
Gu Yuan replied honestly: "It was a half anesthesia, I didn’t feel anything."
The scene in the delivery room was still vivid in her mind. Gu Yuan found it amusing to talk about: "When I gave birth to Suisui, Sheng Yi was with during labor. She was so anxious that she cried, holding my hand and saying she would never have a child again. She cried so hysterically and despairingly that the doctor and nurses thought it was Sheng Yi who was having the baby."
These mories were recounted by Gu Yuan without any additional emotions.
"Yuanyuan."
"Hm?"
Chi Yu pressed himself against her, fitting seamlessly with her body: "Have you ever thought, what if I couldn’t co back?"
"Never." Gu Yuan had a very serious expression, her freed hands cupping his face: "For three years, every day I firmly believed that you would co back."
"But what if?"
"There is no ’what if.’"
Gu Yuan tilted her neck up, kissing his chin: "Because I know very well, Chi Yu might be late by a year, two years, three years, or even many years, but Chi Yu will definitely return to Gu Yuan’s side."
He lowered his head and kissed her: "Chi Yu will always love Gu Yuan."
From shallow to deep, inch by inch, he kissed her, claiming her. Gu Yuan wrapped her arms around his shoulders and back, arching her head to accept his kisses and tenderness.
The first intimacy after three years.
Gu Yuan felt a bit of pain.
He longed for her so much, so much that even with tenderness, he couldn’t control his intensity at tis.
Even though he really held back, gently and carefully kissing her, kissing every part of her. Gu Yuan trembled in his arms, her roaming hands tightly clasped by him until their fingers intertwined.
Sweating profusely, her tears fell and soaked into the pillow.
He saw them, whispering her na over and over again: "Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan..."
She was utterly exhausted, responding twice before lacking the energy to speak, nestling in his arms, hugging him, her subtle voice very light: "Don’t leave again."
He said, "Okay."
...
The next day.
Gu Yuan couldn’t get up, her whole body ached.
This feeling wasn’t unfamiliar, it’s just that after so long, she needed a mont to regain herself.
Chi Yu had already gotten up, looking as energetic as if rejuvenated. He was fully dressed, lying beside her bed waiting for her to wake up.
"Awake?"
"..."
"Did you sleep well last night?"
"..."
Looking over, the person lying by her bed was like a golden retriever waiting early for feeding. Gu Yuan wanted to be mad at him, but with that impossibly handso face right there, just looking at him a little longer, she couldn’t stay angry.
Turning on her side to look at him: "When did you get up?"
"Very early," he looked at his watch: "Around six-thirty."
"You’re so energetic?"
"Energy and stamina are inexhaustible."
He had demonstrated the truth of this through his actions last night.
Gu Yuan stopped talking to him, slowly sitting up, the soreness most apparent in her private parts. Nonchalantly, she lifted the blanket. After last night’s ordeal, she had taken a shower and gone to sleep in a set of pajamas, but at so point, they had been taken off again.
So now she was...
She slowly turned her gaze, noticing that his eyes were fixed on her. Gu Yuan grabbed a pillow and threw it at him, quickly getting up to put on that wrinkled nightgown and head to the dressing room.
What good would throwing a pillow do?
It wasn’t a blindfold to cover his sight; he had seen everything, just so infuriating.
In the spacious dressing room.
Gu Yuan changed into a long-sleeved blouse with embroidery and lace stand collar, and a beige ankle-length pencil skirt, perfectly showcasing her figure.
She wore it long to cover the marks on her body.
Chi Yu hadn’t held back last night, and there were many marks left on her body. As the chairman of Gu Group, she had to maintain her dignity, covering them before seeing anyone.
She put on makeup, finding her lips slightly swollen as she applied lipstick, feeling troubled: "This guy is really..."
Coming out of the dressing room, Chi Yu was already outside waiting for her: "Yuanyuan, no good-morning kiss yet."
"My lips are swollen, don’t even think about kissing for the next couple of days."
"Swollen lips?" he seed worried, "Let see."
"No need."
"Let see."
His strength was significant. Gu Yuan’s little resistance was just playing hard to get. After his ’inspection,’ he even took her lipstick to retouch her lips.
His lips were naturally a deep red, and after kissing her, they were tinted a faint red, looking more enticing. Gu Yuan thought, how could a man be so good-looking?
Of course, this wasn’t the first ti she had thought that.
’Knock, knock, knock~’
The knocking sound ca.
Suisui’s voice ca from outside: "Mommy, your baby is here~"
The housekeeper opened the door for Suisui, and as soon as the door opened, Suisui darted inside like a burst of energy.
"Mommy, my Bobo..." She had so much to say, but upon seeing Chi Yu, she stopped short.
Suisui looked at Chi Yu.
Chi Yu also looked at Suisui.
A new day of father-daughter ti together officially began.
However, at that mont, Chi Yu was applying lipstick for Gu Yuan, his technique surprisingly adept, even creating lip shapes better than Gu Yuan could do herself.
He had just finished applying lipstick for Yuanyuan when Suisui rushed in.
"Mommy~"
Suisui ca over to Gu Yuan’s side, feeling insecure with empty hands, she clutched Gu Yuan’s skirt: "Mommy, hold ."
Gu Yuan bent down to hold Suisui.
Chi Yu felt a bit disappointed, wondering if a child’s newness only lasted for two or three days?
Yesterday, Suisui had leapt into his arms for a hug, but today she wasn’t even speaking to him.
Unexpectedly, in the next mont, Suisui complained: "Mommy, he’s got your lipstick."
Gu Yuan: "Yes."
The exchange between father and daughter left Chi Yu montarily dumbfounded and unable to respond.
