Gu Shaocheng’s expression was entirely inscrutable as he waved his hand dismissively, "We’ll see if I have ti, now go."
With his dismissal, Hua Hua shrugged and left.
Gu Shaocheng opened a drawer and took out a pill bottle. Pouring out two pills, he was surprised when Hua Hua turned back suddenly, "Brother, what are you taking?"
He replied curtly, "My throat has been sore these past few days, so these are lozenges."
Hua Hua acknowledged him and warned, "A cold has been going around, make sure you take care of your health." His sunglasses were left behind on the table in the study, he picked them up and as he left he saw the butler, casually instructing, "Butler, Brother’s throat is sore, call Tian Buyu over to take a look."
"Doctor Tian has taken an extended leave."
Just as Hua Hua was about to comnt, Chenxing’s call ca in. He answered the call while walking, "But Brother didn’t say whether he will go or not... okay okay, I’ll try my best, but don’t get your hopes up too much. I don’t think there’s a high chance he’ll go. I’m not speaking to you anymore, Brother’s throat hurts, I’m going to find a doctor for him."
Could he have caught a cold?
Standing in front of a governnt administrative building, Chenxing ended the call and wiped the sweat off her face. The weather today was unbearably hot. She reluctantly left her house because she lost her citizen ID and passport, and now she had to apply for new ones. After twenty days, they still hadn’t been issued. What kind of efficiency is this from the governnt departnt?
Without her ID, she had to use a temporary ID card—it would have to do.
Deeply inhaling, she got into the car to head ho. Deep down, she really hoped he would co. Even though he promised to see her at least once a month, nearly a month had already passed without a single sighting of him.
She thought of this and felt a lump in her throat. He was such a liar, never following through with his promises.
Unable to restrain her feelings, she sent him several ssages in quick succession.
"Have you caught a cold? Drink lots of water and eat more fruits if you have. Don’t tire yourself out."
"Do you have any news on my mom? It’s been so long since we’ve heard from her, I’m getting more and more worried that sothing might have happened to her!"
"You promised you would see at least once a month as long as I’m well-behaved. Are you really that busy? You’ve got one more day before it’s been a whole month, will you keep your promise?"
"What a liar! You’ve never kept your word!"
Beep beep beep...
Upon receiving several ssages in a row, Gu Shaocheng stared blankly at his phone. It felt like lifetis had passed in just a month, this sense of longing was unbearable.
Chenxing’s ssages, like an opened wound, let loose his aching heart, unable to heal.
In countless restless nights, he would hold her love letters, reading each word causing his heart to throb...
He replayed one particular TV broadcast over and over again, pressing the remote to gaze at her image on the screen. She was so beautiful, like a lyrical song, exuding youthful charm. Her enchanting voice echoed in his ears, penetrated his heart like a feather gently tickling his heartstrings.
How could he not long for her? Even at this mont, he missed her so much that every cell in his body was screaming for her.
Gu Shaocheng’s hand clenched his phone, typing out a that held his feelings in every letter:
"Tonight, I’ll co see you!"
