Chapter 1114: But That Was Only Towards Gu Qingcheng
The young lady leaned against Gu Qingcheng’s warm and solid chest, suppressing her quickened heart rate and trying her best to place all her focus on the Tetris game.
Back when Yun Liuli went to Gu Qingcheng’s side, she was already a young lady over the age of ten. As a man, Gu Qingcheng couldn’t treat Yun Liuli as a little child entirely. After all, there was a difference between males and females.
Despite that…
Gu Qingcheng still gave Yun Liuli plenty of warmth. He had wanted to dote on and love Yun Liuli on behalf of her father, Yun Shoushan, even exceeding what her father would give her to make up for the child’s loss of fatherly love.
Later, when the young lady developed feelings for Gu Qingcheng, he found the need to keep a distance. Other than the necessary care, Gu Qingcheng didn’t dare to shower the young lady with more attention, fearing he would send her the wrong signal.
After playing Tetris for god knows how long, the young lady fell asleep in Gu Qingcheng’s arms just like that.
Gu Qingcheng gently retracted his phone from the young lady’s hands and set it aside. Holding the young lady in his arms, he pulled the blanket over and covered her with it, gazing at her while she slept.
Ever since she laid out all the cards with Gu Qingcheng, Yun Liuli had difficulty falling asleep on countless nights. This was the most soundly Yun Liuli had slept since that day.
When Yun Liuli woke up, she was still in Gu Qingcheng’s arms. Gu Qingcheng’s firm arms were circled around Yun Liuli’s waist, shielding her as if afraid she might fall off the bed.
She twisted around and looked behind her. Gu Qingcheng was leaning against the head of the bed with his eyes shut, his breathing even.
Gazing intently at Gu Qingcheng’s deep-set facial features, Yun Liuli’s eyes turned moist. She very much treasured this feeling of lying in Gu Qingcheng’s arms. What she hoped for the most in the past was to get a sincere hug from Gu Qingcheng! A proactive hug…
All these, she managed to obtain after she pretended to have lost her memory, after pretending like she was seven.
She knew that there was a hurdle in Gu Qingcheng’s heart—her birth father!
She had already tried very hard to help Gu Qingcheng overcome this hurdle, but Gu Qingcheng wasn’t as brave as Yun Liuli.
This time, when Yun Liuli got into the accident, she hadn’t planned to feign amnesia initially…
But, after she woke up, she happened to hear Bai Jinyu telling Gu Qingcheng about the item she bought from the adult toy store. Although Yun Liuli was bold and could be shameless… that was only towards Gu Qingcheng.
Bai Jinyu was holding the item Yun Liuli bought and was blatantly discussing the item with Gu Qingcheng. Yun Liuli, who had already woken up, felt her ears turn hot!
Initially, she had wanted to pretend she was asleep and wake up after they left. Alas, she couldn’t withstand the pain…
The instant she opened her eyes, she saw Gu Qingcheng holding the aphrodisiac she had bought, as well as the elated expression on Bai Jinyu’s face. At that moment… Yun Liuli subconsciously feigned amnesia.
It was like Guan Nina’s words had a hypnotizing effect and were planted firmly in Yun Liuli’s heart.
Hence, when Bai Jinyu asked her those questions, Yun Liuli answered that she was seven.
Subsequently, Yun Liuli discovered the convenience of her identity as a “child.” It helped close the distance between her and Gu Qingcheng. Hence, Yun Liuli gave it her best shot… using 200% of her acting skills to make it look convincing.
Yun Liuli did feel guilty about lying to Gu Qingcheng initially. But now… she was truly glad she made such a decision.
Yun Liuli leaned against Gu Qingcheng’s chest, deciding she would take this act of being a “seven-year-old little girl” all the way!
Because she truly treasured this feeling of being together with Gu Qingcheng, even if she had to keep up the act for a lifetime, she’d be willing.
When Gu Qingcheng woke up, the young lady was no longer lying in his arms. She was sitting on the bed playing Tetris according to how he had taught her.
Upon hearing Gu Qingcheng wake up, she twisted her head to show Gu Qingcheng her score, a gloating look on her face.
Gu Qingcheng reached out to stroke the top of Yun Liuli’s head, then lifted his sleeve to look at his wristwatch.
“It’s time for your checkup…”
According to Bai Jinyu’s arrangements, she had to go through a scan to see if the blood clot in her skull had enlarged. It’d be best if it hadn’t, in which case it could disperse slowly…
If it had enlarged, based on how much it had enlarged, they would determine if surgery was in order.
Thankfully, the results revealed that Yun Liuli’s blood clot hadn’t enlarged.
After Yun Liuli woke up, she hadn’t contacted Guan Nina. Guan Nina thought that Yun Liuli was probably sent overseas by her guardian…
She felt a little down, and that wasn’t because she liked Zhou Yuchen and could tell that Zhou Yuchen liked Yun Liuli!
After truly being friends with Yun Liuli, Guan Nina was very happy!
Especially when she became an advisor to Yun Liuli and was putting on an act with Yun Liuli, Guan Nina truly felt very happy.
The depressed Guan Nina went to the hospital to tell the hospitalized Zhou Yuchen that Yun Liuli had gone overseas and that Yun Liuli had asked her to inform him on her behalf.
Zhou Yuchen said nothing, merely keeping quieter than he usually did.
Guan Nina kept Zhou Yuchen company, but for the entire day, she didn’t hear Zhou Yuchen speak a single word.
When the nurse brought medicine to him, Zhou Yuchen consumed it. When the nurse wanted to take his body temperature, he allowed her to, not saying a word.
Later, the fees that Zhou Yuchen paid the hospital ran out.
Previously, Yun Liuli was the one who paid the fees. Zhou Yuchen had asked Yun Liuli to stop helping him pay in the future. His mother had left him with a fund, and he only had to inform them, and someone would pay the hospital fees for him.
But after Zhou Yuchen realized that Yun Liuli had a crush on another boy, the bitter feeling in his heart caused him to forget all about this matter.
When Guan Nina heard that the fees paid weren’t enough, she quickly went to pay. But when she returned, she saw that Zhou Yuchen had gotten himself discharged without a word. His hospital gown was neatly folded on the bed.
Guan Nina got a shock. She couldn’t find Zhou Yuchen anywhere around the hospital, nor did she know where Zhou Yuchen lived!
While Guan Nina was fretting over this, a gust of wind blew suddenly, and then there was thunder and lightning. Guan Nina was pulled into the car by her chauffeur, who wanted to take her back home.
Guan Nina didn’t stay idle in the car. She called Yun Liuli, but the call didn’t even get through!
Guan Nina called all of her classmates, but no one knew how to contact Zhou Yuchen or where he lived. After much thought, Guan Nina finally called Zhong Qingfei to ask if he knew where Zhou Yuchen lived!
When he heard that Zhou Yuchen had been discharged from the hospital before he fully recovered, Zhong Qingfei frowned. But ultimately, he still told Guan Nina Zhou Yuchen’s home address…
The chauffeur changed direction and went to the building Zhou Yuchen lived in instead. Although it was a building that had been built over ten years ago, because it was in a good location, it was worth quite a lot of money!
Guan Nina was confused. Wasn’t Zhou Yuchen so poor that he couldn’t pay the hospital fees?
