Chapter 564: A Cheng, Are You Concerned About Me?
Ye Cheng abruptly shoved the cup of water into Zimei’s hand and quickly sat upright.Zimei took the medicine, and the pain subsided. She leaned against the seat, silently gazing at the man beside her.
Ye Cheng suddenly tossed a piece of bread to her. "Eat it."
His tone was as plain as water, yet carried a hint of command.
Zimei smiled, her alluring eyes fixed on him, "A Cheng, you’re caring about me, aren’t you?"
Ye Cheng’s face darkened, and he said nothing more.
Because of the medicine, Zimei wasn’t in great spirits. She looked at Ye Cheng’s handsome face and gradually drifted back to sleep. As she slept, her head naturally inched closer to the man’s shoulder...
Feeling the sudden weight on his shoulder, Ye Cheng’s back stiffened slightly. He turned his head to glance at the woman’s slightly pale face, pressing his thin lips together but ultimately didn’t push her away.

Ji Wei woke up naturally and opened her eyes.
The first thing she did was turn her head, only to find Gu Moqian’s figure absent. She rubbed her eyes and sat up. Just as she was about to lift the blanket to look for him, Gu Moqian came upstairs with breakfast in his hands.
"You’re awake, then eat something." He placed the tray on the bedside table, which contained steaming hot pork congee, eggs, and milk.
"I could’ve gone downstairs to eat; it’s quite a hassle to bring it up here." Though her words expressed such sentiment, her heart felt sweet.
"It’s too cold. I want you to stay under the blanket a little longer," Gu Moqian said softly.
Ji Wei: "..."
Spoiling her like this, wasn’t he afraid he’d spoil her too much?
"After breakfast, I’ll take you to the company." Gu Moqian handed her the peeled egg as he spoke.
Ji Wei sipped her warm milk and nodded. "Sure."
Having her husband personally drive her to work, she’d gladly accept.
After finishing breakfast and tidying herself up, the two of them set off. When they arrived downstairs at Ji Group, Ji Wei got out of the car first. Seeing that Gu Moqian also intended to get out, she quickly stopped him. "It’s only a few steps. I can go up by myself."
Gu Moqian didn’t respond explicitly, but he still opened the car door. "I’ll go up with you."
"What are you going up for?" Ji Wei was taken aback.
The cold air outside made their breath visible as they spoke.
Gu Moqian took her hand and tucked it into his coat pocket, walking with her forward. "I want to see how you look when you’re working."
She’d been at the project office before, so wasn’t there nothing special to see?
Ji Wei didn’t quite understand.
Still, she let the man hold her hand and lead her toward the private elevator.
It was rush hour, and the two of them naturally became the focus of everyone’s attention. Ji Family employees were especially shocked, rendered speechless one by one.
Gu Moqian walked by with a cold and indifferent expression, as if he saw none of it, still tightly holding Ji Wei’s hand.
Ji Wei was fearless as well.
After all, wasn’t holding hands with her husband the most natural thing in the world?
The two of them entered the elevator.
The elevator was quite spacious, and it was just the two of them. When the doors closed, the curious stares from outside were shut out.
Gu Moqian turned his head to look at Ji Wei, smiling faintly. "Don’t pay attention to other people’s opinions."
Ji Wei met his gaze, her beautiful eyes blinking. "I don’t mind it at all. If a person always lives under the judgment of others, how suffocating would that be?"
Having lived through another lifetime, she felt not only stronger but also more insightful. Take, for instance, the malicious rumors online—if she didn’t dwell on them or let them bother her, they would have no impact on her.
Gu Moqian looked at the woman’s self-assured and resolute expression, his heart stirred.
She was gradually becoming more dazzling, more brilliant.
"Mo Qian, are you feeling warm?" Thıs content belongs to novｅlfire.net
Suddenly noticing Gu Moqian taking off his coat, Ji Wei asked with evident confusion.
Gu Moqian didn’t explain. With a gentle smile, he slowly opened his coat and lifted it above their heads.
