Sweet Wife Arrives: Mr. CEO, Please Pamper Me

Chapter 519: V395: Zixuan, do you really love me? Or, do you actually love your family more?_2

The old-fashioned street lamp, made of wrought iron, was cool to the touch and intricately decorated.As Feng Chengjin’s back was forcefully slammed for the third time, his head made a "bang" sound as it struck the ground.

This kind of pain made Gu Zixuan’s heart clench instantly, and as she looked at Feng Chengjin, she had an urge to rush over and check on him.

However...

Watching Feng Chengjin rubbing the back of his head in pain, and his strong chest, yet struggling to stand steadily.

She was afraid, truly afraid that if she went over, Feng Chengjin would seize the opportunity to pull her into his arms again, and she would soften her heart.

So, pressing her lips together, Gu Zixuan closed her eyes amidst the ripples in her eyes, and said coldly, "You asked for this!"

Then she turned around and quickly went upstairs.

Gu Zixuan left rapidly, and for Feng Chengjin, who finally recovered from the intense dizziness, in this moment his heart truly turned cold and pained.

Because at this time, no matter what reaction Gu Zixuan had or what she said, he could accept it.

Even though she made him wait for a full eight days, and the previous words were heart-wrenching, he could accept it.

As for his woman... if she’s in a bad mood, throwing a tantrum, he could endure her angry words since he once treated her family this way, and her saying the wrong thing in anger.

However, he couldn’t stand the fact that she could still maintain such a cold demeanor in the face of his condition...

Sometimes, although he didn’t think his illness was something to evoke sympathy, he thought it was necessary to see others’ attitudes towards him through this subtle point.

So, looking at Gu Zixuan who didn’t care and immediately walked away.

His heart turned cold and pained, and even in disappointment and loss, he couldn’t help but ask himself a question.

Zixuan, do you really love me? Why do you ignore me when I’m being so serious? Or do you actually love your family more?

...

Feng Chengjin had no answers.

Or rather, he knew that his untimely illness this time had caused his attempt to win back Gu Zixuan to be a complete failure, and he didn’t want an answer.

After the desolation in his heart, he became more earnest, trying not to make mistakes.

So, as the year-end approached and the company granted a complete holiday.

He started appearing more frequently at the entrance of the Gu Family District.

Persistent in waiting, and during the period of pursuing Gu Zixuan, frequently sending flowers, gifts, and buying necessities for the Gu Family, regardless of whether they accepted them or not, or if their attitude got better over the month, if they would let him drink a glass of water at home...

He just quietly did what he had to.

Not looking at anyone’s expressions that might disappoint or hurt him.

Moreover, with the New Year approaching, even the bleakest families had to stock up for the festivities, bringing a little cheer.

During Gu Zixuan’s entire outing, wherever she went, he followed. Even when Qiu Yuan, Gu Zixi, and others went to the supermarket, he helped carry things and handled the payment.

He didn’t care if Qiu Yuan, Gu Zixi, and the others might say something to make him more embarrassed and humiliated.

Even when Gu Qingfeng once wanted to go downstairs to get a box of tea leaves.

As soon as he moved, Feng Chengjin instinctively got up as well.

As a result, in the silence of their face-off, Gu Qingfeng gave Feng Chengjin a deep look.

Feng Chengjin paused, gave a self-deprecating and awkward smile, and sat back down without saying a word.

After all, Gu Qingfeng had been at odds with Feng Chengjin for eight years, and there were things he couldn’t bring himself to say.

So even though Gu Qingfeng no longer held any grudge against Feng Chengjin, it couldn’t change anything.

...

Feng Chengjin was restless, and every member of the Gu Family could see it.

Not knowing what Zixuan talked with him about that day downstairs, or if it was the collective attitude of the Gu Family members over these many days, but as time passed, he became increasingly disbelieving in anything.

The lack of confidence often reflected in his eyes was a color they had never seen before.

Insecurity even extended to...

Sometimes Qiu Yuan couldn’t help herself, offering him a glass of water, and when he came back from some busy calls, dealing with work matters, looked at the water placed in front of him on the coffee table, he would look around uncertainly, unsure if it was meant for him, and didn’t dare take a sip, letting it stand until it was icy cold.

He would rather be thirsty or order takeaway drinks delivered to him.
