961 Underage
Huo Shaoheng braced himself on the bed, kneeling on one leg and looking up solemnly at Gu Nianzhi. He didn’t answer her question directly but replied calmly, “If your leg kicked any faster, you’d be the one suffering.” Holding his left hand under his still tense body, he panted lightly, fine beads of sweat glistening on his forehead.
Gu Nianzhi quickly glanced at him, unable to rember if she had actually kicked him or not just now. She replied stubbornly, “If I kicked any faster you’d be disabled, so how could I be the one to suffer?”
“If I beca disabled, who would you have sex with?” Huo Shaoheng inhaled deeply to calm himself down. He turned over to pull on his pajama bottoms and said in a low voice, “Wouldn’t you be suffering if you stayed a grass widow for the rest of your life?”
“Hmph! If you beco disabled, then you’re the one who should be the grass widow! Why do I need to be a grass widow? I’d be so happy to find another man!” Gu Nianzhi’s face flushed angrily from Huo Shaoheng’s attitude. Her entire body trembled, so she even began to speak rudely.
Huo Shaoheng chuckled before climbing out of the bed without giving an answer. He thought about how he probably wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight and wished he’d brought a pack of cigarettes.
“You don’t believe ?!” Gu Nianzhi frowned, putting on the black long-sleeved T-shirt that Huo Shaoheng had crumpled into a ssy ball. She also followed him out of bed. “You still haven’t answered . Was it you or not?!”
“Is that really important?” Huo Shaoheng stuck a hand in his pajama bottom pocket, glancing at her coolly. “Your life was in danger at the ti. Also, it was only sex.”
Gu Nianzhi’s brows raised as she replied stiffly, “Ok, so you saved my life. I thank you.”
“This is the kind of attitude you give to soone who saved your life?” Huo Shaoheng leaned forward slightly and said with great interest, “Your thanks was given like you want to kill soone.”
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips. “I thank you regardless. However, Huo Shao, if we were only friends, I wouldn’t have any complaints about what you did. Instead I would be endlessly grateful to you, regardless of whether you had hidden this from or told about it. I wouldn’t object either way.
“But we aren’t normal friends. We used to be in a romantic relationship, so how could you have done such a thing, then leave for good and completely ignore ? And then you kept this from the entire ti! What you did is considered lying! I hate being lied to more than anything else!”
Huo Shaoheng lowered his head and replied dryly, “We were ‘normal friends’ when I had sex with you. So...”
Gu Nianzhi was speechless. Speaking of which, it felt horrible to have her own words used against her! But then she quickly composed herself and stepped forward. “Normal friends? Who are you kidding!? If another woman had been infected with this kind of aphrodisiac, would you have slept with her?! Would you?!”
Huo Shaoheng looked at Gu Nianzhi. Her large eyes were filled with anger and appeared extrely lively. He couldn’t say the word “yes” no matter what.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Gu Nianzhi then walked another step closer. “Would you have?”
Huo Shaoheng sighed. If he answered “yes,” he would not only be lying to Gu Nianzhi but also to himself. But if he said “no,” then Gu Nianzhi’s smugness would reach new heights. This young girl’s arrogance was continuously growing, so he could only stay silent and quietly avert his eyes.
“I just don’t understand why you didn’t tell .” Gu Nianzhi beca aggrieved as she continued speaking. “It wasn’t like you didn’t know how I felt about you...” She was like a blank page in front of him, trusting him and relying on him unconditionally with all her mind and body. She treated him like he was her religion.
But when she suddenly discovered that her own religion had lied to her, this feeling was extrely bitter and painful! Gu Nianzhi could feel her anger reach a tipping point. When she saw the video of Huo Shaoheng and Tan Guiren stepping off the airplane that day in Germany, it had destroyed her feelings towards him. Now that she discovered the past he had hidden from her, it nearly destroyed all the trust she had in him.
Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng with wide eyes, wishing for nothing more than for him to say one thing—to say it was because of her that he was willing to have sex with her...
But Huo Shaoheng remained silent and even refused to look at her. Sitting on the window sill, he stretched his longs legs and cradled his right arm against his chest. His left hand was in his pocket, face slightly tilted to the side so she could only see the flawless features of his profile.
Ti passed by slowly, and Gu Nianzhi waited for so long that her legs grew stiff.
Huo Shaoheng straightened his back by the window sill. “Stop fussing. Go to sleep.” He walked past Gu Nianzhi, but Gu Nianzhi refused to accept this and reached out to grab his left hand.
Huo Shaoheng’s left hand was extrely dexterous. He countered a few moves against Gu Nianzhi in the blink of an eye and quickly forced Gu Nianzhi’s arms against her back. “Since you don’t want to sleep, do you want to tie you up to the bed?”
Gu Nianzhi had learned her little tricks from Huo Shaoheng. She often practiced them, so a typical person couldn’t defeat her. But Huo Shaoheng certainly wasn’t a typical person. However, it was very peculiar that his left arm was still that dexterous despite his right arm being injured.
“You’re left-handed?!” Gu Nianzhi suddenly ca to an understanding, turning around to glare fiercely at Huo Shaoheng. “Ok, ok, ok, all you do is treat like an idiot! You hide whatever you want from ! You lie about whatever you want to !”
Huo Shaoheng froze, his headache continuing to grow. This young girl was truly too keen now. She was smart to this extent...
At that mont, Gu Nianzhi truly thought she was an idiot. She had even worried about Huo Shaoheng’s right hand being inconvenienced, so she had fed him and even bathed him. In his eyes, was she a true and total idiot?
Gu Nianzhi’s face grew red, her mind disheartened and no longer wanting to start a fight. “Let go of , Major General Huo.” Gu Nianzhi didn’t struggle any more. Her eyes looked straight ahead. “You’re strong, and you’re capable, so I only deserve to be completely fooled by you. Please give rcy and let go. I’m really tired now...”
Huo Shaoheng let go of her hand but held her shoulders and turned her around. “You’re crying?” Huo Shaoheng cocked his head to watch her. “This is sothing worth crying about?”
It had been fine until Huo Shaoheng ntioned it, but as soon as he did, Gu Nianzhi felt even more aggrieved, her tears streaming down. She didn’t make a sound and rely wept in silence, so she appeared delicate and pitiful.
Huo Shaoheng knew that the self-control he was so proud of had never been successful when he faced Gu Nianzhi. Pulling her into his arms, he wiped her tears away. “You knew all the reasons, so why did you still have to ask ?”
“I don’t know! I’m just an idiot! I don’t know anything at all!” Gu Nianzhi paused, then continued to shake her head.
“I used to think about how I needed to avoid you.” Huo Shaoheng grabbed Gu Nianzhi’s hand. “But I didn’t succeed. Now you want to avoid , but it won’t be successful, either. We are destined to be together.”
Gu Nianzhi pouted. “So were you struggling desperately when you had sex with in the very beginning and then avoided seeing for six months?”
Huo Shaoheng was montarily speechless. “Speaking properly, when did I ever struggle desperately?” Huo Shaoheng frowned unhappily.
“You didn’t? So why did you avoid seeing for half a year?” Gu Nianzhi pouted again. “You don’t know how horrible I felt for those six months...”
“I’m sorry.” Huo Shaoheng hugged her. “You were underage at the ti. I was afraid I would make a mistake.” When he had sex with her for the first ti, it had been to save her life, so it wasn’t considered making a mistake, even if she was underage. But after that, Huo Shaoheng was worried that would reminisce about the experience, so he could only forbid himself from seeing her.
Gu Nianzhi stiffened. She hadn’t considered the issue of being “underage” at all. But when she recalled it carefully, she actually wasn’t 18 years old when she was infected with H3ab7.
