"You are pregnant and cannot rest well on the sofa. Go to bed."
Chu Lingjue was clearly one step away from Gu Xiwan, but Gu Xiwan had the illusion that Chu Lingjue's lips were right next to her ear, rubbing against her ear and temples.
Besides, his voice was so gentle.
The gentleness made Gu Xiwan mistakenly believe that he cared about her from the bottom of his heart!
But……
Just yesterday, Chu Lingjue had warned her coldly that he would not tolerate her being pregnant with another man's child. Just one day later, he was sincerely concerned about her "pregnancy"?
How could this be true? !
Gu Xiwan withdrew her hand from Chu Lingjue's hand, and raised the corners of her mouth sarcastically,
"Does Mr. Chu really want me to have a good rest? Since Mr. Chu really wants me to have a good rest, then you can sleep on the sofa and I can sleep on the bed."
"Um."
Chu Lingjue responded without hesitation.
Gu Xiwan was shocked.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Lingjue had picked up a thin quilt on the bed and lay on the sofa to sleep.
At this moment, Gu Xiwan realized that Chu Lingjue had never lied to her.
But……
How could he...
Why?
…
Before Chu Lingjue entered the bedroom, Gu Xiwan was already calm and about to fall asleep.
After Chu Lingjue came in, her heart felt like a large stone was thrown into the lake, causing ripples.
Early next morning.
When Gu Xiwan woke up, she saw Chu Lingjue standing beside the bed, looking down at her face in a daze.
He was not wearing a mask, and the early morning sunlight filtering through the curtains was like sprinkling a layer of golden sand on his face, making this handsome and noble man even more extraordinary.
The first time she saw such a face when she woke up, Gu Xiwan couldn't help but feel as if she was still in a dream.
Seeing Gu Xiwan open her eyes, Chu Lingjue concealed the admiration in his eyes and looked away from her pretty face.
"Get up."
Gu Xiwan thought that Chu Lingjue was standing in front of the bed just now, probably waiting for her to wake up, pretending to be affectionate with her and letting her push him out together...
He rubbed his sleepy eyes and said indifferently,
"I'm going to get dressed, please turn around."
As expected, Chu Lingjue turned his back to her.
Gu Xiwan sat up from the bed, suddenly feeling a burst of morning sickness, and couldn't help but retching.
Hearing the sound of her vomiting, Chu Lingjue's heart suddenly felt like it was being tugged. He immediately turned around and brought the trash can to her. At the same time, he gently rubbed her trembling back with his right hand.
Like the previous times, Gu Xiwan reacted violently but did not vomit anything.
The moment she calmed down, the pity in Chu Lingjue's heart gradually receded, followed by a burst of loss.
"We have been married for so long, and you have never told me about your past, or who the father of your child is."
Gu Xiwan only felt it was ironic,
"is it necessary?"
Chu Lingjue looked at her steadily.
Chu Lingjue's eyes were vast, deep, and sharp.
In the past, whenever Gu Xiwan saw Chu Lingjue's eyes, she could only feel his coldness. This time, she felt a hint of melancholy like never before...
This melancholy is as light as the breeze.
But it seemed to be poured directly into Gu Xiwan's soul, making her feel for the first time that Chu Lingjue, the aloof king, was actually a bit pitiful...
Gu Xiwan's heart couldn't help but soften.
"I don't want to mention that now, but I promise you, sooner or later, I will tell you." Gu Xiwan's tone softened a lot.
"Sooner or later, when is it?" Chu Lingjue said reluctantly.
Gu Xiwan thought for a moment.
"I promise that before the hundredth day expires and we get divorced, I will tell you everything that happened."
Gu Xiwan always felt that it was hard to talk about it.
Later, after learning that the man that night was Chu Lingjue, she regretted that she had not opened her heart to Chu Lingjue at this moment.
If she told Chu Lingjue everything now... they wouldn't have to encounter any more ups and downs.
