Chapter 262: Falling in Love with Him, How Wonderful
"How wonderful, I fell in love with you..." Lin Banxia murmured. These words circled around her heart, bringing wave after wave of pain.In her past life, right before her death, Huo Yanting had frantically come to find her. He told her he loved her, that he’d loved her for a long time, and it had left her utterly stunned.
In this life, being with him again, every little moment they spent together proved that this man indeed loved her deeply and intensely.
Suddenly, her heart ached for him. How much willpower must it have taken for him to bury such a heavy love deep in his heart for three whole years?
She finally understood why, in her past life, every time she was hurt and at her lowest, she would always see his figure. Perhaps it wasn’t a coincidence but rather his deliberate decision to seek her out.
"Silly girl, finally, you’ve said something that sounds nice." Huo Yanting felt that every word Lin Banxia said was always puzzling, yet at the same time, it was inexplicably pleasing to hear.
Lin Banxia nestled her petite face against his chest, rubbing slightly, as if addicted to his warmth and scent.
At this moment of tenderness, a sudden, jarring ringtone shattered everything.
Huo Yanting, slightly annoyed, pulled his phone out from the pocket of his slacks. Seeing the name flashing on the screen, he still answered the call.
"What is it?"
"Young master, it’s getting late!"
"Got it!"
Ending the call, Lin Banxia had already stepped a few paces back from his embrace.
Huo Yanting sighed quietly, reluctantly reached out to touch her small hand, and pinched her cheek. "I have to go now, but I’ll be back tomorrow night."
"You’re so tired from work every day. Why don’t you skip coming over and get some rest?"
"You don’t want me to come?" The man’s mood visibly darkened in an instant, his enthusiasm doused.
Lin Banxia chuckled nervously a few times. "Of course, that’s not what I mean. I just don’t want you to overwork yourself!"
"I’m in excellent health; don’t worry about me!" Huo Yanting’s voice sank a few notches as he said this.
Lin Banxia really couldn’t handle this man’s constant overt or subtle flirtations, so she waved her hand dismissively. "Hurry back now. Whatever it is, we can talk about it tomorrow!"
"Mm, goodnight!" After finishing, Huo Yanting swiftly cupped her petite face and planted a deep kiss on her lips. "Remember to miss me!"
Lin Banxia’s fingers grazed her lips as if still feeling his warmth and breath lingering there. Unable to hold back, she let out a soft laugh.
This was insane. She was crazy. Huo Yanting was even crazier.
Gu Family.
Gu Qianxi returned from the hospital, rubbing his temples. His handsome face carried an unmistakable weariness.
After three straight hours of surgery, he was drained. Fortunately, the operation had been a resounding success. The grateful family members had been on the verge of kneeling to him in the corridor. Every life he saved made Gu Qianxi feel that being alive and healthy was more precious than anything else. Wasting even a single day of such a precious life seemed like an unforgivable pity.
As Gu Qianxi stepped out from the garage, he suddenly noticed that a light was on in one of the second-floor rooms.
His expression instantly shifted, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Wasn’t that Keke’s room?
Disregarding the exhaustion in his legs, Gu Qianxi immediately started up the stairs with heavy, determined steps.
When his tall frame appeared outside the second-floor bedroom door, he saw a small figure kneeling on the floor, folding clothes.
"Keke, what are you doing?" Gu Qianxi’s mind went momentarily blank at the sight. In the next instant, he strode into the room.
Tong Keke looked up at him but continued folding clothes. Her soft voice drifted over. "Uncle, I’ve decided to move out."
