Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 1059 - 1062: The Illness Can’t Be Concealed 8

"Help me back to the room first," he said.

His voice was low but quivered with a few threads of tremor, not suppressed, yet the thick panic that couldn’t be masked drilled directly into Hua Hua’s ears.

The two of them helped him back to the bedroom together.

Hua Hua swiftly walked back and locked the bedroom door from inside. When she turned around, her complexion was extremely poor. She approached her brother, on the verge of shouting, yet she restrained herself time and again, watching Chenxing bustling about.

He simply couldn’t stand still, pacing back and forth in the bedroom.

"Shaocheng, how are you feeling now?" Chenxing was too anxious to pay attention to the handsome guy wandering around the room.

Gu Shaocheng lay on the bed with his eyes tightly closed, preferring not to open them as if shunning the world. It took him a full ten minutes to calm the negative emotions in his heart before he opened his eyes and curved his lips into a small smile: "Much better. I’ll try getting out of bed and walking around."

A twitch appeared at the corner of Chenxing’s eyes: "Maybe you shouldn’t."

"It’s fine. I’ll give it a try."

He forced himself out of bed, and Hua Hua immediately rushed over, arms outstretched, ready to catch her brother if he fell. He received a warning look from the other, which he stubbornly ignored.

Gu Shaocheng hobbled around the bedroom twice, then let out a long sigh and sat down in the chair, slightly tilting his head up. It was clear that Hua Hua was brimming with questions, the words stuck in his throat.

The secret could no longer be concealed.

Clearing his throat slightly, he said: "Go call Wuqing, Fengchi, and Baihao over. I have something to tell you all." It was just as well; letting them know so they could start making their own contingency plans and seek their personal escape routes.

As Gu Shaocheng spoke these words, he felt an overwhelming sense of weakness. He signaled for Chenxing to come over, shifted his body to make space for her to sit beside him. The man who seemed almost invincible in Chenxing’s heart let his head lightly rest on her shoulder, his voice raw with fatigue: "I’m a bit tired. Let me lean on you for a while."

Hua Hua’s pupils tightened, and his eyes turned red: "Brother."

"Go ahead. I’ll speak once everyone is here," Gu Shaocheng cut him off and waved his hand: "Right now, I just want some quiet."

.........

After Hua Hua left, only the couple leaning on each other remained in the silent bedroom.

Chenxing raised her hand and placed it on the head of the man she loved, gently stroking his hair. It was a very maternal gesture. Even the strongest men sometimes long for a mother’s love, receiving it from their mothers during childhood and from their wives as they grow older. Although she wasn’t his wife yet, in his heart, she had been quietly dwelling there for years.

"Shaocheng, have you decided?" Chenxing asked softly.

What to decide, they both understood.

A couple in love, any look they share can express their feelings more directly than words, and the other person can understand as if they had a telepathic connection. What is this called?

Tacit understanding, right!

He hummed in affirmation, a resolution made after careful consideration and explained: "Given my current physical condition, even if I wanted to hide it, it won’t stay hidden for long. It’s better to tell them early so they can each make plans early and find a way out for themselves. The Gu Family, I’m afraid, won’t be at peace much longer."

Chenxing remained silent for a long time, then took his hand.

She liked the action of their ten fingers intertwined. This was called holding your child’s hand.
