C286 (1/2)
The air seemed to be filled with an aura, and Gu Ruoyun couldn't help but feel warm. She leaned over him, and could hear his heartbeat and his breathing.
This feeling was really too strange. She couldn't help but hold her breath, but she could faintly feel her breath heating up.
”You … ”Release me.”
Only then did Chu Haolong react. He directly carried her by the waist and carefully placed her on the bed.
”Don't move, I'll apply medicine on you.”
Gu Manxue snorted softly. She felt her heart beating faster and faster, and her heart was once again pounding with embarrassment.
Chu Haolong's face had a trace of patience, and his forehead was covered in sweat. Just now, he had almost lost control of himself. Just by hugging, he had almost lost control. Just how tempting was Gu Manxue to him?
He took a deep breath and carefully applied the medicine to her, but his thoughts were clearly not on it. He didn't even know where he was floating to.
During the process of applying the medicine, Gu Manxue didn't make a single sound. She clenched her teeth tightly and endured it all.
”The place where the snake bit is scarred. It looks like it's going to recover soon. Show me your arm.” Chu Haolong stood up and touched her arm.
Gu Manxue took the initiative to show his injured arm in front of him and said softly, ”It doesn't hurt anymore.”
”En, it's good as long as it doesn't hurt. Stupid girl, how stupid are you to actually injure yourself like this? You're simply not even a woman.” Chu Haolong knit his brows as he looked at her wound. This wound would definitely leave behind scars in the future. How uncaring was she?
In his mind, girls cared a lot about scars and such things, but Gu Qingxue was different. She didn't seem to care about these things. She was simply a man for women.
”Yeah, I'm not a woman, then go find someone who looks like a woman.” Gu Ruoyun's anger rose and she buried herself in the blanket, unwilling to pay any more attention to him.
”Hello.” Chu Haolong gently pulled on her blanket and a trace of helplessness could be seen in his eyes.
”What for?” She asked fiercely, ”You're right, I'm really not a woman. Go find a woman, find a woman!”
”Why are you so angry? Seriously, even though I applied medicine on you out of good intentions, you are actually acting so baffled. Forget it, can't I just leave?” Chu Haolong creased his eyebrows and stood up to leave, but he still turned his head to look at her.
Gu Manxue lifted up her blanket and fiercely glared at him, ”Did I say I needed you to apply medicine on me? It's your own bad intentions that I don't care about. ”
”Fine, Gu Manxue, I'll remember your words.” Chu Haolong also became angry. He coldly snorted and kicked open the door.
Gu Ruoyun felt wronged in her heart as tears fell. The doubt in her heart grew stronger. Was her choice the right one? Was a man like Chu Haolong really suitable for him?
He was unsteady, rebellious, and arrogant. How could a man with such a character be at ease in guarding a woman like her?
She hadn't forgotten that Chu Haolong had a lot of girlfriends in school, but what about her? What would be the result of liking a woman who couldn't even be considered a woman?
Her heart began to feel lost at this moment. The road ahead made her even more confused. She didn't know if what she was doing was the right thing to do.
During dinner, Gu Ruoyun sat on a chair and looked at Chu Yufeng, who was seated at the head of the table. He had a calm expression on his face, and was very serious when he was not speaking.
However, she keenly noticed that there was a smile in his eyes when he spoke to Yu Huan.
Chu Yufeng really loves Yu Huan, right? You could tell from the details.
Perhaps she had been looking at him for too long. Chu Yufeng lifted his head to look at her, and she immediately felt a chill spreading from the bottom of her feet.
Chu Yufeng's eyes narrowed as his lips curled up into a sneer. He asked coldly, ”Are the dishes not to your liking?”
Gu Manxue suddenly raised her head and looked at Chu Yufeng. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
”Aiya, you scared Snowy.” ”Xiao Xue, don't be afraid of him. He's like this. He always has a serious expression on his face, but he's actually quite a nice person.”
”Yes, the dishes are very good.” Gu Ruoyun's tone was cautious, but she still secretly glanced at Chu Yufeng. To her surprise, Chu Yufeng was also looking at her, his eyes filled with amusement.
Had he been discovered? She frowned, a trace of displeasure in her eyes.
”Is Snowy always so silent?” Chu Yufeng's eyes sized her up. Although they didn't interact much with her, he could guess her personality.
Gu Ruoyun smiled lightly, and she became even more cautious, ”I've always been like this.”
”Oh, I see.” Chu Yufeng sneered and did not continue.
Yu Huan could not bear to watch any longer. She gently tugged at Chu Yufeng's clothes, and Chu Yufeng acted as if he did not know anything as he continued to eat.
Gu Ruoyun ate the meal like chewing wax. Her entire body involuntarily tensed up, as if the Chu Yufeng in front of her was a monster. It made her feel afraid.
”I don't know what's going on with Xiaolong. He didn't even eat dinner, so he went out early. I'll call him later to call him back.” Yu Huan knitted her brows and said.
”The child is old. Let him go.” Chu Yufeng was taken aback.
Yu Huan seemed to have thought of something and nodded, not saying anything further.
