His gaze firmed, and he took out his phone, giving an order to arrest Ye Wenqing.
Hearing his command, Ye Wan tightened her hold around his arm.
"I'm sorry," Ye Wan still apologized to him.
"I'm the one who should apologize... I was the one who hurt you back then."
Back then, his mother had jumped off a building with his sister in her arms. He had witnessed the scene. His sister died instantly, shattered into pieces, her skull distorted. Before his sister's incident, he had loved that adorable little sister dearly. His mother lay on the ground covered in blood, her limbs twisted at unnatural angles, her eyes wide open, two streams of blood trickling from their corners…
He was only a teenager then and truly couldn't accept the scene. Ye Wenqing had disappeared, taken away by his father, who was worse than a dog, so he took all his anger out on little Ye Wan. Da Feng Fiction Network.
Now, thinking back to her fear then, her tearful fright, her plea for him to stop, Gu Yunting's heart ached. He lowered his head and kissed her lips. Ye Wan closed her eyes, tears welling up, and they held each other tightly, passionately entwined… as if to release all the fear and pain they had endured over the years.
Gu Yunting held Ye Wan all night. When Ye Wan stirred, Gu Yunting also woke up. She said she needed to use the restroom, so she put on her pajamas and got out of bed first.
Gu Yunting's phone rang. He picked it up.
"Young Master, Ye Wenqing says she wants to see you. She claims to have something important to tell you, and you can deal with her afterward."
Gu Yunting frowned, glanced towards the bathroom, and said, "Bring her to Gu Residence."
When Ye Wan emerged from the bathroom, she felt rather uncomfortable. Last night, they had been too unrestrained.
She got back into bed and burrowed under the covers, not wanting to deal with Gu Yunting, just wanting to sleep a little longer.
Gu Yunting leaned over, propping his hands on either side of her body, and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
"Don't you feel any discomfort?" Ye Wan looked at him strangely. Last night they were so... wild; was she the only one feeling uncomfortable?
"No, I feel great," Gu Yunting said with a smug, almost provoking smile.
Ye Wan: "..."
Annoyed, she raised her elbow to push his chest. Gu Yunting's face changed, and he let out a muffled groan, lying back down.
Ye Wan was startled. She then remembered his chest injury and quickly said, "Are you okay? Did I hurt you? Let me see."
Gu Yunting used his strength to pull her towards him. Ye Wan fell face-first onto his chest, his lips still curved in a smile.
Ye Wan knew she had been tricked. Thinking about how he had been so active last night without issue, how could he be hurt by her light push?
"You're so annoying!" Ye Wan said, trying to get up.
"Don't move, it really hurts! I'm not lying to you!" Gu Yunting genuinely felt pain; his wound hadn't fully healed, so how could it not hurt?
"Then last night you..." Ye Wan said, blushing, unable to finish. His wound wasn't healed, so how could he have been so energetic?
"Well, I saw you were in the mood and didn't want to dampen your spirits," Gu Yunting said intimately, pulling her closer.
"You're talking nonsense, I wasn't... you clearly were..." Ye Wan's eyes widened instantly, and she looked at him with a horrified expression. What kind of nonsense was he spouting? She hadn't been in any mood.
"Is that so? Think about it again. Yesterday, who was it that clung to me so..."
Ye Wan quickly raised her hand to cover his mouth, not allowing him to continue. If he said any more, she might as well jump into the river!
