Chapter 433 - 411: Her Strange Disease That Doesn’t Cause Pain
Gu Qimiao stood outside the door, but there was no sound inside. Clearly, she could hear but he was deliberately ignoring her, obviously angry."Hubby..."
Gu Qimiao spoke a lot of nice words outside the door, until her lips were dry, her tea had gone cold, and her legs felt weak, but he still didn’t come to open the door.
Dispirited, she returned to the bedroom, put down the cup in her hand, looked around, and realized she had no idea where to find the key. He was the one who usually took care of these things.
She rummaged through everything but found nothing. In the end, she returned to the study door. "I know I was wrong... Can you open the door for me?"
Inside, Shen Yanchen stopped his writing, his eyes fell on the door.
Just now there had been no sound for so long, he thought she had gone to sleep.
"If you don’t come out, then... I’ll just... I’ll stand here and not leave!"
After saying that, there was silence. It was as if he could see her pressing her ear against the door, listening for any movement inside. After a long while, her pitiful voice sounded again from outside the door: "...I want to sleep."
Gu Qimiao stood by the door, hoping with all her heart that he would open it. But after speaking, she stood there for a long time. It seemed he was determined not to respond to her, or maybe he was not in the room at all.
She pouted and looked around, then had a sudden idea. She turned and walked toward the bedroom, took an art knife from the desk, and without any hesitation, she cut her finger. Red blood immediately oozed from the cut. She then ran to his door, shouting, "Shen Yanchen, I’m bleeding!"
Shen Yanchen inside the study was stunned. The reason why he was so sensitive to the word "blood" was because of her strange illness that prevented her from feeling pain, which gradually made him so sensitive.
He put down his pen but did not stand up, listening to her crying and shouting outside: "So much blood... Am I going to die?"
Shen Yanchen recalled the last time he ignored her, she cut her arm at a party to get his attention. Was this the same trick?
With that foolish mind of hers, she could do anything. Shen Yanchen couldn’t sit still, immediately stood up, walked to the door, and opened it. He saw her pouting and crying, but there wasn’t a single tear on her face. She even sneaked a peek at him.
She pitifully held up one finger with a few drops of blood, not even enough to drip.
This was her so-called "a lot of blood" and "about to die".
Seeing this scene, Shen Yanchen’s worry disappeared. Feeling both angry and amused, he pulled her into the bedroom, took out some disinfectant, and applied it to her. He deliberately poured a bit more, which would normally cause a stinging pain, but she showed no reaction, looking at him with big eyes, seemingly quite pleased.
Shen Yanchen took out a band-aid to cover her wound, but she pulled her finger away and asked him, "You’re not mad at me anymore?"
He glared at her, reaching to grab her hand, but she stubbornly avoided him, causing the cut to bleed again. Finally, he couldn’t hold back and shouted, "Gu Qimiao!"
She hid her hand behind her back: "Unless you say you’re not mad, I won’t listen to you."
Shen Yanchen glared at her, pulled her onto the bed, pinned her down with his leg, and twisted her arm back to apply the band-aid.
Gu Qimiao struggled a bit. Only when he finished bandaging and loosened his grip did she manage to turn over, grabbing his clothes and pleading, "Please don’t be mad, okay? I won’t lie to you again."
