Chapter 6
Discussion in the Ward
Gu Lian looked at his mother’s back and was stunned. Shouldn’t mothers-in-law despise daughter-in-laws who were lazy and selfish? Why did his mother look so satisfied?
As soon as Gu Lian stepped into the ward, he heard the cheerful voice in his mind.
“Hubby, I’m starving! You’re finally back!”
“You know I’m here, but you’re not going to switch back?” Gu Lian took out the food from the shopping bag one by one and placed it on the small table.
During this time, he heard the sound of Mo Yu constantly trying to switch back.
“It still doesn’t work. Looks like it’s not a distance restriction. It should be time or frequency.” Mo Yu muttered.
“What a pity. Oden and rice bowls won’t taste good when they’re cold. I’ll settle it for you first.” Gu Lian had a nasty idea. He knew that Mo Yu could smell the fragrance now. He wanted her to experience the pain of being able to smell but not eat!
Gu Lian opened the box. In an instant, the entire room was filled with the fragrance of food. Even he could not help but swallow his saliva.
It had been three years since he could eat. He could only rely on nutrient solutions to maintain his vital signs. Now that he suddenly smelled the fragrance of food, it was really difficult for him not to eat!
Even so, Gu Lian still maintained his elegant and dignified temperament. He did not wolf down his food, but his speed was still much faster than before.
Food is the most important thing to the people. The ancients did not lie to me!
Gu Lian ate heartily at the side while Mo Yu struggled bitterly on the bed.
“Darling, darling, husband! Save a bite for me. Save a bite for your dear fiancée!”
Gu Lian turned a deaf ear to her and quickly finished the beef rice bowl. Just as he was about to reach for the iceberg lava cake, his vision turned black.
He switched back again!
“Phew, I finally succeeded!” Mo Yu heaved a sigh of relief and took a bite of the cake.
It was delicious!
After three years of living in the apocalypse, she was extremely devout to food. After all, she could still eat meat and vegetables in the first half of the year. Later, there were only compressed biscuits and water left.
This was simply a devastating blow for the people who grew up in a country full of gourmet cuisines!
Mo Yu once felt that her taste buds were about to deteriorate. Now that she could eat desserts and other fried food, she had no time to care about anything else and only buried her head in her food.
Gu Lian returned to his own body. He couldn’t see or move. He originally thought that he wouldn’t feel too different after switching back, but he had overestimated himself.
Gu Lian did not want to take the initiative to talk to Mo Yu. That would make him seem very impatient. But after all, Mo Yu had just been talking to him. After suddenly returning to silence, Gu Lian was very uncomfortable.
Sure enough, humans were selfish. If they didn’t benefit, they wouldn’t care about others.
Gu Lian was not sad for long. He began to think about the terms of the exchange.
The distance limit could already be eliminated, and the number of times was still to be verified. What could be confirmed was that Mo Yu could not exchange bodies with him as she pleased. There should be a frequency limit.
The first time was less than ten minutes apart, but the second time was at 11:40 in the morning when he changed into Mo Yu’s body. He arrived at the ward at about 3:30. After eating the rice, he was switched back into his own body.
The second switch took about four and a half hours. This should be the cooldown time for the switch.
Mo Yu wolfed down the food until she was half-full. After eating to her heart’s content, she began to talk to Gu Lian.
‘Darling, can you hear me? Your mother was here this afternoon. She probably cried. Did you meet her on your way back?’
“Why aren’t you talking again? You have to know that I’m the only person who can talk to you now! The only person who can break the silence and give you happiness!”
“Where did you buy this fried chicken? It’s quite delicious!”
“You know, you should eat less.” After being forced to listen to the mukbang for more than half an hour, Gu Lian couldn’t help but remind her.
He still remembered that there would be a banquet tonight. He couldn’t let Mo Yu embarrass him and make everyone laugh at him for marrying such a woman.
“Why should I eat less! Are you anxious because you can’t eat it?” Mo Yu didn’t think much of it and wanted to eat another cream puff.
The next second, she heard a plot detail that she had missed.
“At six o’clock tonight, the Gu family’s banquet. You’re not planning to go like this, are you?”
