Chapter 1038: Can’t Quite Bend Down
"Okay." Xia Yinian nodded without thinking.Gu Beicheng was overjoyed. For the first time, he felt that being ill wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
The little girl had been thinking about him all day, leaving her no time to think about anyone else.
Seeing how worried Nian Nian was for him, Gu Beicheng knew that his "illness" couldn’t get better so quickly today.
If she found out that he was deceiving her now, she would definitely be upset and likely slam the door and leave.
And how could he possibly let her go?
Almost intertwined, the two of them walked into the bathroom.
Realizing where she was, Xia Yinian suddenly felt she perhaps shouldn’t have come in.
As soon as they entered, Gu Beicheng propped his other hand against the sink, trying to ease the pressure on her.
Xia Yinian was completely fooled by this gesture of his.
"Are you okay? If not, let’s go back, I’ll help wipe you off, and let the doctor take a look." Xia Yinian looked up at Gu Beicheng.
Gu Beicheng’s lips slightly curled up, his voice affectionate and husky.
"Seeing you worried about me, I don’t hurt anymore."
He pulled Xia Yinian into his arms and lightly kissed her forehead.
It was uncertain whether it was Gu Beicheng’s charm or if Xia Yinian’s mind was clouded.
She always felt that when he said he was fine and not in pain, he was actually just enduring it.
"Stop talking nonsense." She gently pushed him away, "Should I help wipe you off, or do you want to do it yourself?"
Her "wipe off" certainly wasn’t meant to include his whole body; he understood that, didn’t he?
She knew he wouldn’t miss the chance to tease her; as long as he wasn’t suffering from pain anymore, she could temporarily overlook other matters.
When Xia Yinian thought he would choose to wipe himself, Gu Beicheng suddenly said, "I’ll do it myself."
"It’s sticky, uncomfortable."
He released her, propping one hand on the stone table of the sink, and began unbuttoning his shirt with one hand.
Once again, Xia Yinian misunderstood Gu Beicheng’s intention.
She stood as she did before, watching him in the same posture.
As it was inconvenient to do with one hand, when Gu Beicheng finally managed to unbutton the second button, Xia Yinian’s soft hand rested over his.
"Let me do it."
Upon hearing the words he most wanted to hear at that moment, every cell in Gu Beicheng’s body became excited.
"Okay." He responded, gazing unblinkingly at the girl before him.
With the third button undone, the man’s solid chest was revealed.
Looking at this well-defined physique, even Xia Yinian’s breath began to turn heated.
She hated her weakness, falling for a patient at such a moment? But Uncle’s figure was irresistibly good.
Trying hard to suppress inappropriate thoughts, Xia Yinian continued with her task.
Yet, she didn’t realize that wherever her fingertips brushed, it felt like giving his cells a new chance.
All the skin warmed by her breath trembled.
Soon, not only Xia Yinian’s, but even Gu Beicheng’s breath turned different.
It could be said that ever since they walked into the bathroom together, Gu Beicheng’s breath had changed distinctly.
Finally managing to take off the man’s shirt, smelling the scent she was familiar with and loved, Xia Yinian almost lost control.
"It’s done." She cleared her throat softly, speaking quietly.
"Help me take off my pants, I can’t bend down." Gu Beicheng said hoarsely.
