The nurse ca over, seeing the two people blocking the hallway, and before she could say ’please move aside,’ Gu Yuan had already pulled Quan Jin towards her, making way for the nurse.
After the nurse passed by, just as Gu Yuan was about to let go, she sensed soone’s intense gaze fixed on her.
The distance was shortened, as was their breathing, and the sll of disinfectant at her nose seed even stronger. She couldn’t tell if it was from him or the hallway, but in hospitals, the sll of disinfectant was everywhere.
"Yuanyuan." When he called her, his Adam’s apple bobbed as if he was almost out of breath.
In fact, it did seem a bit hard for him to breathe.
Her hand clutched his collar tightly, and he felt his neck being restrained by a force. Coupled with the person in front of him being the one he longed for, Quan Jin felt like he was almost suffocating.
Gu Yuan let go of her hand.
Then she realized that even after she let go, Quan Jin was still sticking to her in the sa posture, without changing a bit.
A nurse who had just co out of the ward passed by them, seeing the two still sticking together, intimately as if they couldn’t be separated. She couldn’t help but cover her lips with a smile.
After passing them, the nurse paused and turned back, wearing a serious expression as she reminded them, "If you have sothing to whisper, I suggest you go into the ward. At night sotis there are ergency cases, so don’t talk about love and block the hallway."
After saying it solemnly, the nurse returned to her station to continue her shift.
Gu Yuan and Quan Jin, who hadn’t yet separated, exchanged a glance and each took a step away. Quan Jin stepped back, and Gu Yuan stepped aside, instantly widening the distance.
"Let’s go back to the ward." Gu Yuan went into the ward first.
Quan Jin followed her closely inside.
On the hospital bed, Suisui was sprawled out, sleeping in a very unrestrained position.
Whenever Gu Yuan saw Suisui’s uninhibited sleeping posture, she couldn’t help but think of Chi Yu. Genes are indeed powerful.
As she stopped abruptly, Quan Jin, who was coming in behind, bumped into her, with suspicions of intentionality. He imdiately stepped back and said, "Sorry."
Gu Yuan didn’t turn back, only responding, "It’s okay."
Then she raised her hand in a gesture, which Quan Jin understood, moving forward to stand beside her, bending his upper body to put his ear closer to her.
So obedient it was absurd.
Gu Yuan couldn’t resist the urge to pinch his earlobe, but she held back, knowing if she did, he would definitely take advantage, so she only said, "Look at Suisui’s sleeping posture."
He took a look, then looked at her.
His expression, like a puzzled husky, clearly didn’t catch her aning.
Gu Yuan had to spell it out, "Haven’t you noticed that Suisui’s sleeping posture is identical to yours?"
Only then did Quan Jin take another look and nodded, "I see it now. My kid, of course, it would be the sa."
After saying that, he realized sothing belatedly and looked at Gu Yuan, "You rember my sleeping posture so clearly?"
He really hit the nail on the head.
But being this close suddenly made Gu Yuan feel uncomfortable. She raised her hand to push him away and said, "We were married after all, right?"
The light and breezy comnt stabbed into Quan Jin’s heart.
He tried to maintain a forced smile, "...Do you think I still have a chance?"
Gu Yuan glanced sideways at him.
Then she looked away, pretending not to have heard his question.
Quan Jin was even more disheartened, "Yuanyuan, thank you for coming to see your ex-husband tonight, and also, your ex-boyfriend," he said and began to play the victim, complaining, "Your ex-husband hasn’t been doing well and regrets a lot. He spends every day in self-bla, feeling like there’s no hope left in life."
If he wanted to complain, let him.
As he complained, he rested his head on her shoulder.
Gu Yuan’s shoulder twitched slightly, and he imdiately lifted his head up, standing properly.
Right after, Gu Yuan’s voice ca, devoid of emotion, "An ex-husband is an ex-husband, an ex-boyfriend is an ex-boyfriend. Have you ever seen anyone go back to their ex?"
Quan Jin: "Well, . I’ll take the whole prairie of going-back-to-an-ex."
Gu Yuan: "..."
She turned around to face Quan Jin.
Looking at his cheeky grin, there was sothing she was quite curious about, so she asked him, "Now that you know the truth, why aren’t you complaining about deceiving you with the identity of Gu Xueli?"
She always felt there was a thorn in his heart, just not laid bare.
After all, with his fiery temper.
That day at the old house, the subject was already touched upon, but lately, he hadn’t brought it up.
"Why should I complain?" he retorted.
