Indulging Mrs. Lu

Chapter 498 - 496: Pour Me a Drink

Again, Manager Gu?

Although Gu Chen felt displeased, he didn’t say anything. The issue of changing honorifics could wait for another day.

Gu Li passed a pair of chopsticks to Gu Chen, pointing to the bowl of noodles in front of him, "You eat that one, I’ll eat this one."

He looked down; his was a large bowl, hers was a small bowl, each bowl contained a poached egg.

The two ate their noodles in silence, and after finishing, she naturally took his empty bowl and washed it in the kitchen.

Coming out of the kitchen, Gu Li seemed uneasy.

"Come here."

Gu Chen was sitting at the bar, with a bottle of red wine less than half-full on it.

Gu Li walked over in silence, and when she saw the bottle of red wine and the glass, her eyes widened in disbelief.

"You drank alcohol?!"

She had been preoccupied and too far away earlier, so she hadn’t noticed his drinking. But now, close up, she could smell the alcohol on him.

"Hmm. Do you want a drink?" Gu Chen offered her the glass, but she quickly shook her head.

"Your body isn’t well, you shouldn’t drink."

Gu Chen’s hand, holding the wine glass, paused for a moment, then he chuckled lightly and drank the wine in one gulp. He placed the empty glass in front of her, "Pour me another."

Gu Li didn’t move, just pursed her lips and stared at him for a while. Then she took the wine bottle and glass to the other side of the bar, set them down, walked over to Gu Chen, and without caring whether he would refuse, took his arm and pulled him toward the bedroom.

In this world, only Gu Li knew how terrible Gu Chen’s body was after getting drunk.

To Gu Li’s surprise, Gu Chen did not resist and even cooperated as she led him.

Almost the moment he lay on the bed, Gu Chen’s face turned as pale as paper.

After taking off Gu Chen’s shoes and socks, seeing him like this, despite being mentally prepared, Gu Li’s heart was fiercely clenched.

She tightened her jaw, accurately located the medicine box, took out a few pills, and then walked to the bed, forcefully pushed a pill into Gu Chen’s mouth.

The first pill smoothly entered Gu Chen’s stomach.

But, when Gu Li tried to give the second pill, Gu Chen suddenly became uncooperative, tightly closing his mouth, appearing as if he had passed out.

Gu Li was sweating anxiously.

She got a glass of water from the living room, ran back in, helped Gu Chen up, and tried to get him to drink. Unfortunately, the water just flowed down his chin onto the blanket, and he didn’t swallow a bit.

Gu Li became even more anxious.

She laid Gu Chen down, stared at his lips for a while, then took a deep breath, put the remaining pills into her own mouth, and then pressed her lips against his.

Perhaps it was an instinctive bodily reaction, at the touch of something soft and unfamiliar, Gu Chen slightly opened his mouth. Gu Li was pleased, immediately pushed all the medicine into his mouth, quickly took a sip of water, not giving him the chance to spit it out, and forcefully poured the water down his throat...

By the time Gu Chen had swallowed all the medication, Gu Li’s palms were sweating nervously.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, holding the glass and medicine box, and left the room.

If Gu Chen’s illness had not worsened over the years, then he should have no problems after taking those pills.

The next day

When Gu Chen woke up, he felt a bit of a headache, annoyed at himself for drinking last night. However, according to his memories of last night, he should have drunk quite a bit, which means he might have had a flare-up. So, why didn’t he feel unwell now?
