Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the evening, Gu Wencheng called Su Ilan. At this ti, ng Nianyao was already asleep.
Gu Wencheng lit a cigarette and told Su Han about ng Nianyao.
“Her condition appears similar to post-traumatic stress disorder,” Su Han said. “I suggest you take her to see a psychiatrist.”
Gu Wencheng frowned, unwilling to believe this result. “You sure you didn’t make a wrong diagnosis? Two months ago, she had suffered a much greater blow than now.”
“President Gu, what do you think people are?” Su Han smiled. “It’s not just people; even if it was a stone, it would still break into two pieces if it falls to the ground. A person is not harder than a stone. ng Nianyao had suffered a bigger blow the last ti, but she didn’t break down. This only ant that the tension in her heart hadn’t broken yet, but this ti, it did. Of course, my judgnt might not be right. Take her to see a professional psychiatrist and see what the psychiatrist has to say.”
Gu Wencheng was about to say sothing when he heard ng Nianyao’s scream from the bedroom. He threw away his phone and quickly walked to the bedroom.
“No! Get lost! Don’t touch ! ng Haotian! Please don’t touch …”
ng Nianyao kept writhing on the bed, cursing and crying, but her eyes were closed.
Gu Wencheng walked to the bed, afraid that she would hurt herself, and reached out to grip her hands. ng Nianyao scread,” No!” and then suddenly opened her eyes.
“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Gu Wencheng held ng Nianyao in his arms and gently patted her back. “It’s just a nightmare. It’s not real. Don’t be afraid.”
ng Nianyao was not in good condition. She had nightmares four or five tis throughout the night and woke up crying every ti. Gu Wencheng almost didn’t sleep the whole night. When he coaxed ng Nianyao to sleep for the last ti, the sky had already turned bright. He stayed by ng Nianyao’s side for a while. After making sure that her breathing had stabilized, he gently got up and went to the balcony to smoke.
His phone and the cigarette he had lit last night were on the ground. The cigarette had already burned out, leaving only a piece of ash and a cigarette butt lying on the ground.
It was a cold morning in November. Gu Wencheng picked up his phone and glanced at it. There was an unread text ssage from Su Han. “Gu Wencheng, you’re tempted.”
Tempted? Towards ng Nianyao?
Gu Wencheng narrowed his eyes and slowly blew out a ring of smoke.
ng Nianyao woke up at 10 am. The mont she opened her eyes, she was a little dazed and subconsciously looked around. She was in Gu Wencheng’s bedroom. She heaved a sigh of relief and got up from the bed.
When she washed up, she looked much thinner in the mirror. It had only been two days since…
Gu Wencheng ca in from outside. There was no one in the bedroom or in the cloakroom. He frowned, walked to the bathroom, and knocked on the door.”ng Nianyao, are you inside?”
After waiting for about two to three minutes, no one answered. Gu Wencheng pressed the door handle and was about to push the door open when ng Nianyao ca out and looked at him.
Gu Wencheng was also looking at her. After a few seconds, he smiled faintly.”Good morning.”
ng Nianyao pursed her lips. After a mont, she said, “Morning.”
Yesterday, ng Nianyao didn’t respond to anyone and was in a daze. Today, she was a little better. Gu Wencheng heaved a sigh of relief. “Co downstairs for breakfast when you’re awake. You barely ate anything yesterday.”
ng Nianyao nodded and walked toward the dining room.
Breakfast was brought over by Ping Yang. ng Nianyao sat down at the dining table while Gu Wencheng went to get the bowls and chopsticks. Because it had been almost an hour since Pingyang brought the food over, the porridge was a little cold.
“I’ll go heat it up,”Gu Wencheng said.
“No need.” ng Nianyao took the porridge and picked up the spoon to eat slowly.
ng Nianyao ate very elegantly, much more elegant than many of the young ladies Gu Wencheng had seen. Her temperant, including her behavior, was very cultured. This was why Gu Wencheng had always suspected her. The environnt a person grew up in determined many things. If he hadn’t checked her information beforehand, he wouldn’t have believed that she had grown up in an orphanage.
Gu Wencheng looked at ng Nianyao thoughtfully and gradually beca absent-minded.
“Gu Wencheng.” ng Nianyao scooped the porridge in her bowl and paused. She looked up at Gu Wencheng and said, “Thank you.”
“You’re welco, Mrs. Gu.” Gu Wencheng smiled.
ng Nianyao looked at him. There were many things she wanted to ask, but couldn’t bring herself to.
Over the next few days, Gu Wencheng gave ng Nianyao a day off to rest at ho and hired a new servant to accompany her..
