o Shaoting didn't turn off the air conditioner. He kept staring straight ahead at the traffic.Heavy rain caused severe traffic congestion. Cars barely moved even at green lights.Ho Shaoting took out a...Gu Yunfan didn't move his hand, his palm resting against her wildly beating heart.

He knew her too well.

Every time she lied, something about her changed. The tips of her ears would turn a faint pink...and her heart would beat faster.

Such intimacy shouldn't belong to them.

Li Siqi tried to pull her hand away, but he didn't let go. Instead, he held her hand tighter, letting her feel his own heartbeat: "It's beating so fast."

"Let go! Gu Yunfan, you have no shame."

Gu Yunfan looked at her flushed face and smiled faintly. He let go of her but lay on the pillow, lightly saying, "That day we did it several times, you kept hugging my neck and telling me not to leave."

Li Siqi turned her face away: "You can forget about what happened that day."

"I can't forget it! I savor it several times a day."

He's such a big thug!

Li Siqi sneered: "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset Mr. Gu like this."

The two of them chatted back and forth, not as close as before, but also not as distant as they had been recently. Li Siqi pondered that he probably felt something had changed between them after their encounter, even though their relationship was different now.

She decided to wait for him to be discharged, then she would leave.

At this moment, the ward door creaked open, and a familiar figure appeared at the doorway, peering in cautiously. It turned out to be An Ran's older brother, Lin Bin, with his little daughter, Niuniu, by his hand.

Lin Bin is doing quite well in business now. He has a house and a car, and he's considered settled in City B.

But compared to Gu Yunfan and the others, it's still a long way off.

He was carrying something in one hand, swaying his head: "Mr. Gu, I heard you were injured. I especially dropped everything to come and see you."

Put down your things and gently nudge the little girl: "Quickly call Uncle Gu, he's the one who helped you with your schooling."

Niuniu has grown into a beautiful young woman.

Quite generous.

Gu Yunfan, looking at Anran's face, treated Lin Bin's family with some kindness. But right now, he was alone with Li Siqi and was interrupted by this old Lin Bin, making him furious inside.

But on his face, a smile bloomed like spring sunshine: “Just a minor injury.”

Lin Bin disagreed: “An Ran called my mom, saying he almost got shot. My mom is old and soft-hearted; she cried for half the day at home, saying that good people don’t get rewarded.”

Gu Yunfan couldn't laugh anymore.

Lin Bin maintained his composure on the business front, sitting by the bed, wishing he could just hold her hand and comfort her properly... After a while, it was Li Siqi who spoke up: "Brother Lin, Mr. Gu only had a dozen stitches."

Lin Bin suddenly became flustered: "I don't know."

He went on to say, “Mr. Gu, you’d better take care of yourself and avoid any strenuous activity... Although it's true that men are only honest when they're hung up on the wall, you have so much money left unspent, you must cherish your precious dragon body!”

He spoke little, Nunu giggled.

Gu Yunfan felt he was being too loud, but luckily Lin Bin rolled and crawled away. Li Siqi closed the door and just wanted to explain things to Gu Yunfan, but when she turned around, she saw Gu Yunfan asleep with a tired expression on his face.

She was taken aback—

In her memory, Gu Yunfan seemed to never tire.

Whether it's his career or in bed, he's like a perpetual motion machine.

This was the first time she had ever seen him like this.

She quietly watched him sleep, slowly walking over to cover him with the blanket. Her hand was gently grasped, and the man's voice was hoarse: "Siqi..."

……

Gu Yunan slept for 36 hours straight, Li Siqi was afraid he had passed away.

After the doctor's examination, he reassured her: "Mr. Gu is just too tired! He will wake up naturally once he gets enough sleep."

Li Siqi then felt relieved.

Early this morning, Wang Sao came over with Gu Siqi. The little one has recovered quite a bit and is already back home.

Mrs. Wang was preparing breakfast while asking, "Mr. Gu hasn't woken up yet"

Li Siqi hummed in agreement.

Wang Sao called her to eat breakfast, but Gu Siqi refused to eat at home. She insisted on eating with Li Siqi. She comforted the latter in a small and playful way: "My father will be fine, he will definitely wake up and marry you."

Li Siqi glanced at her.

Gu Siqi buried her head in her breakfast, lowering her voice: "You're being two-faced! You clearly like Dad."

Li Siqi was too lazy to explain to the little kid.

Just then, the person in bed stirred, their voice hoarse: "Siqi"

"Dad!"

Gu Siqi, the little girl, didn't even finish her meal, and immediately ran over to pounce on her father's bed.

Though he claimed not to be afraid, he burst into tears now.

Gu Yunfan kissed the little girl and said gently, "Daddy's just a little tired."

Gu Siqi hugged his neck and got very close to him. She whispered, "Then you can't sleep for so long in the future, or people will think you're old and won't want to marry you."

This little thing!

Gu Yunfan chuckled, then he looked at Li Siqi, seeing that she was still there. His mood inexplicably improved... He had endured for so long, all because he was afraid she would leave.

Now she hasn't left, has she softened her heart a bit

Aunt Wang was known for her caring nature and quickly came over to say, "Mr. Gu, would you like to use the restroom I'll call a nurse for you"

Gu Yunfan was unwilling.

He's not even seventy, why does he need a young nurse to wait on him

Wang Sao was also a sensible person. Seeing the scene, she lightly coughed and said, "Then I'll take Miss Xiao to Dr. Wang for another checkup. He said it would be best to have a follow-up today."

Gu Yunfan nodded, stroked his little daughter's soft hair, and asked, "Have you had any nightmares these past few days"

Gu Siqi shook her head.

Gu Yunfan felt a little more at ease and handed the small thing to Wang's wife.

After everyone else left, he called out to Li Siqi: "Help me up, I need to use the restroom."

Li Siqi agreed to take care of him, meaning she was willing. She lifted the covers... then her gaze faltered. She hadn't expected such a scene.

Gu Yunfan was also a little embarrassed: "It's just a natural physiological reaction."

She helped him sit up, but she still couldn't help saying: "But you're a patient now! That's not normal."

Gu Yunfan stared at her.

After a long pause, he softly said, "Looking at your face makes me react, I can't control it."

Li Siqi thought he was truly depraved. Just moments ago, Wang's wife and that little thing were still there, and he could lose control like this... He must have been so frustrated these past few years!

That day, during the celebration, Gu Yunfan said he hadn't had such a good time in years.

She believed.

A person like him wouldn't need to lie, and he never stooped to it. Back when they were good, he wasn't short on other people. He wouldn't deliberately hide things from her, even when some young girls would flirt with him in front of her. She wasn't his wife after all, so she could only be annoyed each time.

Thinking of those things, Li Siqi's heart turned cold. She despised herself even more for being so soft-hearted...

Gu Yunfan didn't feel good at all, walked a few steps his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Li Siqi whispered, “Maybe we should…use that!”

Gu Yunfan went over the scene in his mind, just thinking about it made him feel lustful. He wasn't unwilling, but he also knew that Li Siqi wouldn't agree, and he couldn't bear to force her.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!st his back. Lu Qian was thinner than before, but much better than when he was sick.After a long while, she asked softly, "Does it still hurt""No pain!"Lu Qian finally turned back. He saw, he saw Ming...
