But then she thought again, now was not the time to ask him, Gu Yunting would surely come up soon, and he would easily discover that she already knew everything.
Downstairs, Gu Yunting was indeed worried about Ye Wan's condition. He felt something was very wrong with her. When he had applied medicine to her just now, her sprain hadn't looked serious, so why was she crying so miserably?
He made her a bowl of noodles. Once everything was ready, he quickly went upstairs with the bowl of noodles. When he reached the top, Ye Wan had stopped crying and was leaning against the bed, playing on her phone. Despite her best efforts to hide it, Gu Yunting could still sense her loneliness and unhappiness.
"The noodles are ready. I made something simple and quick because I was afraid you'd be hungry." Gu Yunting put the noodles aside to cool for a moment, as they were still hot from being freshly cooked.
He held her in his arms and then checked her ankle, finding only slight redness and swelling.
Ye Wan rested her face against his chest, nuzzling like a small bug. Her hands tightly entwined around him as she breathed in his scent deeply.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yunting felt ticklish from her actions and tried to get her to sit still, but Ye Wan continued to nuzzle him, her fluffy little head burrowing into his embrace.
"I miss you, Gu Yunting. Don't leave me again. I'll miss you, okay?" Ye Wan looked up at him, her gaze pathetic, her beautiful eyes as fragile as a porcelain doll.
"I still have to go back to work." Gu Yunting dared not promise her anything, knowing he couldn't keep it.
Ye Wan's eyes dimmed considerably, her heart clenching painfully. She knew his time was limited. "Then... you can accompany me when you have time in the future, right?"
"Mm," Gu Yunting mumbled in response, promising to try his best.
"Feed me the noodles!" Ye Wan looked at the bowl of noodles and requested, trying her best to suppress the ache in her chest.
"Alright." Gu Yunting was now completely compliant with her requests. If it wasn't feeding her noodles, he'd give her his life.
Ye Wan leaned against the headboard, her gaze fixed on him as if she could never get enough. Gu Yunting then picked up the bowl of noodles and fed her spoonful by spoonful.
She ate as he fed her, finishing the entire bowl and feeling somewhat full.
After she finished eating, Gu Yunting went downstairs, and Ye Wan followed. She insisted on making him a bowl of noodles for dinner.
Gu Yunting, afraid of tiring her, refused to let her cook. But Ye Wan was insistent, and in the end, he accompanied her to the kitchen to cook together.
A bowl of tomato and egg noodle soup was ready. Ye Wan watched him eat, suddenly realizing that such a simple and happy life was worth pursuing for a lifetime.
While Gu Yunting was still eating, Ye Wan suddenly stood up and leaned over to kiss his cheek. The man paused in his eating and looked at her. The next moment, his cheeks actually turned red.
Ye Wan found it quite novel, as if she had discovered a new continent. She opened her dewy black eyes and asked, "Gu Yunting, you blush?"
"Stop fooling around. Be careful not to play with fire," Gu Yunting turned his head and glared at her warningly.
As soon as the man's words fell, Ye Wan leaned in again and kissed him fiercely. Then she laughed happily, her eyes curving into a beautiful smile.
Gu Yunting reached out, pulled her closer, and passionately kissed the lips that made him both love and hate her. If she dared to laugh at his blushing, then they would both blush together!
