Gu Yuan was exhausted, but he seed to have an endless supply of energy.
The night was still long.
Moreover, it wasn’t even night yet...
After a long ti, Gu Yuan raised her hand to push him away, but she couldn’t even lift her hand. He had tornted her rcilessly, and Chi Yu, holding her soft and boneless hand, coldly said, "When it cos to this, that’s all you’ve got."
Gu Yuan was both infuriated and amused, wanting to roll her eyes but held back, only to retort angrily, "Aren’t you finished yet?"
"How could I be?"
He laughed wickedly, "What we’re doing now is all above board, does the wife have any complaints?"
"..."
****
The few nights before Chi Yu ca to Sydney, he hadn’t slept well.
He was physically and ntally exhausted. The few hours of sleep on the plane weren’t enough to relieve the ntal stress he had been under these days.
He was eager to see Gu Yuan again, and the fury he had accumulated burst forth in the hotel, spiraling out of control.
The intense activity last night didn’t end until three in the morning.
Chi Yu was utterly exhausted, and Gu Yuan was even worse off as he held her and fell into deep sleep.
In the past couple of days, Gu Yuan hadn’t left the hotel room.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, she just couldn’t get out.
Chi Yu had kept her in the hotel suite, traces left in every corner.
He was wild, and though Gu Yuan intended to keep up with him, it almost cost her dearly. Fortunately, he had so sense of conscience and knew to still cherish her.
The sound of a rip—
The blackout curtains were drawn open by Chi Yu, and Gu Yuan, lying in bed, raised her hand to shield her eyes. She had been in this room for two days and nights without leaving.
Looking at Chi Yu again, he was covered in marks.
There were scratches everywhere.
The most were on his back.
Then on his abs, arms. But the scratches were light, just faint red marks without breaking the skin or bleeding. Gu Yuan really had gone easy on him.
She suddenly regretted going easy.
This kind of person should be dealt with more forcefully to relieve anger.
Ah, forget it...
"Going out?" he asked, coming over.
Kneeling with one knee on the bed, the sheets still unmade, looking quite suggestive.
Gu Yuan turned her head away, unwilling to speak to him.
He sat down suddenly from his kneeling posture, causing the bed to sink a bit, and then his body pressed over her as he said by her ear, "Then let’s not go out, continue."
Gu Yuan imdiately sat up.
The quilt slipped from her body, revealing a beautifully curved back and a sexy dip at her waist, covered in traces of his affection, his eyes darkened, and his Adam’s apple moved.
It was so alluring.
Gu Yuan also realized it and quickly put on her clothes.
In the car.
Gu Yuan was listless, her eyes closed in rest all along. Chi Yu extended an arm to pull her into his embrace, and Gu Yuan didn’t resist, snuggling quietly in his arms.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at Wen Fei’s place.
"Yuanyuan, we’re here."
His voice woke her, and Gu Yuan opened her eyes to see a massive Gothic-style castle estate outside the car window. This was the castle Wen Fei had bought for himself in Sydney. Gu Yuan had been here twice, and this ti she ca with Chi Yu.
Getting out of the car, Chi Yu didn’t move, standing quietly in place.
Gu Yuan noticed he wasn’t following, so she turned back, "You don’t want to go in?"
Chi Yu looked down at her, "If I say I don’t want to, would you take away?"
Gu Yuan shook her head.
"How about you change your mind? Let’s go back to Hua Country, back to Sui City. Gu Yuan, have you forgotten we have a daughter, and there’s a wedding, I still have to marry you, you’re my wife..." he said urgently, his voice full of pleading.
Gu Yuan’s attitude remained, "No hurry to go back yet."
His face slowly turned icy, as if resigned, reverting to the cold and harsh deanor he had when he got off the plane, as if he wasn’t going to bother with her anymore.
Gu Yuan reached to hold his hand, but he avoided her, his voice aloof, "Don’t touch ."
Gu Yuan: "..."
Withdrawing her hand, she chuckled, nodded, "Fine, I won’t touch you."
Then she walked forward, without any intention of waiting for him.
This ti, the reason Gu Yuan could hold sway over Chi Yu was because there was a daughter between them. She thought, without Suisui, Chi Yu might not be so obedient and willing to co to Sydney.
On the way here, he must have planned how to persuade her, even prepared other tactics.
Given his character, he certainly wouldn’t submit and wait for her to make arrangents.
He must be thinking: finally making it into her world, and you want to send away? No way!!
Gu Yuan guessed too accurately.
She really understood Chi Yu too well, and she was also the one in this world who understood him best, the only one.
And Chi Yu was indeed thinking just that now.
He watched Gu Yuan’s retreating figure, his expression still cold beyond words: "Thinking of sending away? Not a chance!"
There weren’t many Filipino maids in the manor.
The large castle where Wen Fei lived was sowhat desolate; she never liked noise. If it weren’t for the fact that the castle was too big and needed to be cleaned and maintained, she would have preferred to live alone in this vast, empty castle.
Today was the first ti in three years that Wen Fei saw Chi Yu again.
"Have a seat."
Wen Fei presented herself with the deanor of a proud hostess, not particularly courteous to welco this pair of lovers.
Chi Yu didn’t know Wen Fei, but he had learned before coming to Sui City that Gu Yuan had a mother living abroad. The Gu Family was managed by Gu Yuan alone, without her mother’s involvent.
Additionally, Gu Yuan had an uncle who was in prison.
This uncle deliberately orchestrated a sche, tricked Gu Yuan into going out to sea, intending to kill her and make it look like an accident. In the end, he got his just deserts and was personally sent to prison by Gu Yuan.
All these events, Chi Yu perceived as if they unfolded along a tiline, unaware that the kidnapping had been because of him.
As a result, at this mont, he was not fond of Gu Yuan’s biological mother. If an uncle could harm his niece, what good could be expected from a mother who doesn’t care about her daughter?
Chi Yu’s myriad of expressions was clearly seen by Wen Fei, who sneered, "Disdainful? What do you think you are?"
Chi Yu found a place to sit down: "At least I’m still a person."
Gu Yuan, who was pouring water to drink: "..."
The water was sowhat cool, so she reheated it and poured a cup for Chi Yu: "With such a large estate, it seems you’re not quite used to living here."
She handed the cup to Chi Yu.
Chi Yu accepted it but didn’t drink; he just held it.
Wen Fei observed the awkward interaction between the two and looked away: "Whether I’m used to it or not is my business, you don’t need to worry."
"I’m not worried, can’t I just ask?"
"No, you have no right to inquire about my life."
Gu Yuan gave a bitter smile, having long grown accustod to confronting Wen Fei like this. The peaceful conversation she had with Wen Fei a few days ago felt unusual. It seed today quickly reverted to its original state.
Chi Yu overheard the mother-daughter conversation clearly, lifting his gaze to glance at Wen Fei opposite: "Lonely people hide their loneliness, it’s no accident when so people et a bad end."
Next to him, Gu Yuan’s first reaction was to look at Wen Fei.
She thought Wen Fei would get angry and lash out.
But Wen Fei didn’t.
Her face did turn much colder, and she implored, "As a young man, watch your words and leave yourself a way out."
Chi Yu: "I’ll pave my own way out, how much depends on my mood. If you don’t respect your age, should I respect my youth?"
Wen Fei’s expression was cold as if covered with frost.
Sitting nearby, Gu Yuan: "..."
In the past, Chi Yu would never be so outspoken in front of Wen Fei, showing respect to both Wen Fei and Wen Bo.
But she learned later that Chi Yu did this for her; he foolishly hoped that through his efforts, Wen Fei and Wen Bo could treat her a bit better.
So people’s hearts are warm without any need to be covered.
So people’s hearts remain cold, no matter how much warmth you try to give.
The latter is precisely Wen Fei.
Sure enough, Chi Yu’s reckless words did upset Wen Fei, leading her to say, "Arrogance requires qualifications; let’s see how long yours lasts."
Having said that, Wen Fei suddenly stood up.
She cast a glance at Gu Yuan: "Co with ," then headed upstairs.
Gu Yuan stood up, but as soon as she took a step, Chi Yu grabbed her wrist, his brow deeply furrowed as he nervously asked, "May I go up with you?"
"No."
The answer ca from Wen Fei, her voice particularly cold.
Chi Yu ignored Wen Fei’s words and looked at Gu Yuan resolutely, pleading with her: "Can you take with you?"
Gu Yuan was not the type to be soft-hearted; her heart was always cold and ruthless.
But in front of Chi Yu, she found herself constantly softening, so she held his hand.
This scene was seen by Wen Fei, who warned: "Gu Yuan, are you sure?"
Gu Yuan’s hand holding Chi Yu’s stiffened; she saw the plea written all over his face and was overwheld by a soft heart, yet she had to freeze her heart again.
"Chi Yu, wait for a few minutes." She said this and then let go of his hand.
But he gripped her wrist in return.
Gu Yuan pried his hand open and followed Wen Fei upstairs.
Ti ticked by second by second.
Chi Yu didn’t know how long Gu Yuan had been upstairs, nor did he know how long he had been standing in that frozen stance until he nearly lost balance and knelt on the carpet.
The place was vast and empty, with no maids moving around, so quiet that there was not a sound.
In the bedroom upstairs.
Wen Fei took out a bottle of dicine, shook it lightly in front of Gu Yuan, and then walked over to her with it: "Make him take it, and later take it to the lab."
Gu Yuan didn’t reach out to take it.
Wen Fei was impatient: "So what will it be?"
"Will he really forget ?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Gu Yuan, you’ve asked this more than five tis from the start until now, and the answer remains the sa. Are you waiting for a different answer?"
