Aunt Zhou brought the clothes for Gu Qingxin. As Gu Qingxin got out of the car, her legs were trembling. She fled back to the bedroom in a sorry state.
Even though the bedroom also belonged to Beiming Han, at least it could hide her embarrassment from the eyes of others.
After taking a bath in the bathroom, when Gu Qingxin came out, Aunt Zhou was waiting outside. She said that Beiming Han invited her to have dinner.
Gu Qingxin followed Aunt Zhou to the dining room. Beiming Han was the only one in the dining room. The food had been served. Aunt Zhou left her at the door and then left.
Gu Qingxin was genuinely afraid of Beiming Han. She stood near the dinner table, not intending to sit down, hoping she could keep some distance from him.
Beiming Han’s eyes were intently fixed on her. Seeing her reluctance, he impatiently said, “Do I have to invite you?”
“I… I’m not very hungry.” Gu Qingxin quickly glanced at him.
“Sit down, eat!” Beiming Han commanded her, word by word.
Gu Qingxin sat down next to his left hand. She picked up her chopsticks and began to slowly eat the rice in front of her.
With a “snap,” Beiming Han threw his chopsticks on the table. Under his incessant stare, Gu Qingxin flinched, stood up, and quickly served him some food.
He didn’t seem to soften at all…
Gu Qingxin was at a loss, uncertain of what she could do to please him.
Beiming Han suddenly raised his hand, moving all the food she served him to her side. He pointed his perfect chin at her, instructing her, “Eat it all.”
When they were halfway through their meal, Huangfu Ye and Bai Jingqing walked in, bantering and laughing.
“Big Brother, Sister Qingxin, what a coincidence that you’re eating. We haven’t eaten yet.” Huangfu Ye sat down across from Gu Qingxin.
Bai Jingqing sat down too. Servants quickly brought bowls and chopsticks. The two men were indeed hungry and started eating right away.
Beiming Han paid no attention to the two men. He gripped his chopsticks and continued to eat slowly, seeming somewhat distracted.
Gu Qingxin also stayed silent, quietly eating a dish of vegetables that Beiming Han had served her and the rice in front of her.
Huangfu Ye and Bai Jingqing exchanged glances, sensing something was off about the pair.
After so long, why did it feel like the relationship between the two was getting worse?
Huangfu Ye watched Beiming Han with puzzlement. Hadn’t he reminded his big brother how to treat a woman?
“Miss Gu, are you feeling better now? Is there anywhere that still feels uncomfortable?” Bai Jingqing took the initiative to ask Gu Qingxin.
Gu Qingxin hesitated for a moment, then shook her head, “No…Thank you for your concern, Doctor Bai.”
“Why does your complexion seem off?” Bai Jingqing continued to ask.
“It’s nothing…” Gu Qingxin, feeling uncomfortable, lowered her head and muttered a response.
The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive. Gu Qingxin finished eating the plate of vegetables Beiming Han had served her and the bowl of rice. She immediately stood up, “I’m done, you take your time.”
Without waiting for Beiming Han’s approval, she left the dining hall. The unusual way she walked out was noticed by all three men.
“Big Brother, did you get rough with Sister Qingxin again?”
Huangfu Ye thought his big brother had already run out of patience with Gu Qingxin, who had been away from the North Garden for seven days, but how come he was rough again as soon as they met?
Beiming Han picked up the cigarette placed on the dining table, lit one, and began to smoke. He also wanted to be gentle with her, but he was really provoked by her actions and eyes.
After all these years, he was able to control himself perfectly but in front of this little girl, one look from her could make him lose control………………………………………………..
