Chapter 553: Do you hate
so much? (8)_1
"The Western District was quite far from the kindergarten where the two children were enrolled. By the ti he returned, his two intravenous fluid bags had drained completely.
She thought of what Wen Qianxi had said earlier and couldn’t help but want to laugh.
It was amusing that President Gu, who usually had no bottlenecks, would perform flawlessly at crucial monts.
After giving it so thought, Eleven understood that there were certain things that so people couldn’t touch throughout their lives.
The picture taken at the filming gave off a sweet sense of happiness. Forcing them apart must have been sothing unavoidable, perhaps a pain that they were reluctant to ntion.
"Hey, Fourth Master, are you feeling better?" Eleven walked in carrying a cup of warm water.
Gu Liancheng wasn’t asleep. He had just finished his drip and was sitting up on the bed. He looked exhausted and his face was pale.
He coughed lightly with a deep, hoarse voice and said, "Gu Qianxun, you just abandoned
and left?"
"Not at all. I was just dropping off the children at school and have requested a day off from work. I’m planning to stay ho and take care of you," she denied. She wouldn’t dare leave him alone at ho.
She can’t be heartless, after all, she claid whatever ailnt he had, she would have too. It would be too sad if he was just left to laze around all day alone at ho.
"That’s more like it," he remarked.
His voice sounded weak and frail, like a dying patient. His occasional coughing broke the quietness in the room.
Although he looked pitiful and would easily gain sympathy, Eleven found his current state strangely amusing instead. She held back her laughter, fearing that Fourth Master Gu would get angry.
Eleven attentively leaned toward the bed, holding the warm water to his lips, helping him drink little by little, only then did she start to provide him with the broken-up dicines.
Seeing the pile of dicines, he was shocked, "So many?" Fever reducers, anti-inflammatory pills, and so on.
Gu Liancheng rarely fell ill. Normally he was strong and healthy. It was surprising that an injury would bring about an illness.
"Do you know how much effort I put in to find these dicines? My eyes are blurry from reading the labels. You’re not allowed to leave any behind. Now, open your mouth," she instructed.
Gu Liancheng obediently swallowed, asking, "Why isn’t there a proper way to drink water this ti?"
"..." Eleven paused for a mont.
He was accusing her of taking advantage of him again!
"Who dares to take advantage of you, Fourth Master Gu?" Eleven teased, "I have the intention but not the courage."
"I’ll allow you one ti," he offered.
Eleven gave a small smile, "No need."
When Su Bai called to ask about his condition, Eleven nodded saying it was great, that he could talk and laugh. If only the fever would go down in the evening, he would be right as rain.
"Big White said that you shouldn’t worry about work. Everything’s under control since the Vice President is there," she assured.
"This Su Bai seems to have misunderstood who his master really is," he grumbled.
"Isn’t it because he thought you were asleep and didn’t want to disturb you? You have such a nice assistant, you shouldn’t nitpick. Also, don’t make fun of him all the ti," she suggested.
"Gu Qianxun, are you lecturing
now?" he accused.
He finally realised that now, with the divorce certificate in hand, she was completely uninhibited. The way she talked or even her attitude towards him experienced a 360-degree change. She was no longer submissive and compliant like she used to be.
However...
Gu Liancheng couldn’t resist but slightly curl the corner of his lips.
He didn’t hate the current her.
The old her was as fake as a puppet with human thoughts, not genuine at all. Now, she finally had her own emotions and they were displayed in front of him.
Now, he was Gu Liancheng, and she was Qianxun. They were no longer in an employer-employee relationship. They had finally reached equality."
