Having just changed her soiled underwear and tossed it into a nearby sink, Gu
Qingxin watched as the bathroom door opened once again. Beiming Han stepped in, scooped her up in his arms, and carried her out.
After placing her on the small bed, Gu Qingxin thought Beiming Han would leave. However, to her surprise, he disrobed, and holding her, lay down beside her.
“Young Master!” Gu Qingxin was taken aback — was he planning to sleep here?
Wasn’t this the servant’s room?
Beiming Han didn’t respond…
His warm palm rested on her lower abdomen…
Although Beiming Han appeared aloof and cold, his body was wonderfully warm. Warm like a bazier, just what Gu Qingxin needed at that moment. Unable to resist, she nuzzled closer to him.
It felt so comfortable…
The pain in her abdomen surprisingly diminished…
Gu Qingxin enjoyed the soothing sensation, sighing contentedly…
Within no time, she drifted into sleep.
Only after Gu Qingxin had fallen asleep did Beiming Han slowly close his eyes. His large hand never left her abdomen…
The next day, when Gu Qingxin woke up, she found herself alone in the room.
She sat up, gazing at the emptiness around her, feeling a strange sense of loss…
After getting up, she didn’t see Beiming Han again. Only Aunt Zhou seemed to be in the villa.
“Aunt Zhou, where’s the young master?” asked Gu Qingxin, trying to sound casual.
“It seems that the young master had to go on a business trip and left early in the morning,” replied Aunt Zhou.
Gu Qingxin lowered her head and continued eating her porridge. The once delicious, aromatic rice porridge somehow lost its taste.
As it was the weekend, after breakfast, Gu Qingxin decided to return home. With Lin Yin’s condition improving, she intended to reopen her small flower shop.
“Mom, you’ve just been discharged from the hospital, rest at home for a while, we have enough money to get by for now.” Gu Qingxin didn’t want her mother to overwork.
“I feel much better now, besides, selling flowers isn’t tiring!” Lin Yin protested, finding herself bored at home.
“How about this, I’ll ask Qianqian if she’s free, we can help you clean the shop first. You can rest today and return to work tomorrow.”
“Alright then,” Lin Yin relented, nodding her agreement.
Gu Qingxin made a quick call to Bai Qianqian. As she hung up, she looked up to see Tang Rongling, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time.
Instantly, Gu Qingxin’s brows furrowed. Deciding to ignore him, she continued walking past him.
“Xin Xin, let’s find somewhere to talk.” Tang Rongling blocked her way, hoping to speak with her despite not knowing what to say. He just wanted to see her.
“There’s nothing for us to discuss.”
A complex emotion flickered in Gu Qingxin’s eyes. It was Gu Yunci who lied and deceived Tang Rongling five years ago. Strictly speaking, he was also a victim…
However, even so, it didn’t change anything…
What once was, can never be again…
The break down of their relationship wasn’t entirely Gu Yunci’s fault. After all, Tang Rongling had never truly cared for her…
“Xin Xin, I don’t believe you have no feelings for me anymore!” Tang Rongling stepped forward, grabbing her shoulders.
Gu Qingxin jolted away from him, stepping backwards. She tripped over a protruding stone and fell to the ground.
Her face paled from the pain!
Tang Rongling blanched. Was she unwilling to even let him help her up now?
Tang Rongling tried to help her up. However, Gu Qingxin hastened to stand, ignoring the throbbing pain in her abdomen, and quickly left..
