Chapter 245 - 247 Please Don’t Make Things Difficult for Me Anymore!_1
He baited her, yearning for a reaction that would reveal her true emotions and intentions. This way, he could guess her true thoughts and devise his next strategy!
A man skilled at manipulation, facing a woman of simple thoughts and feelings, feared being shut out of her world. He was afraid she would no longer depend on him as before; too afraid to force his wishes on her again. He was hesitant, cautious, and helpless. He had been reduced to a state of cluelessness - What else could he expect!
Gu Shaocheng lightly closed his eyes, slowly asking a question that seemed to exhaust all his energy. It appeared as if the short internal process had drained him completely. "Tell me, have you always despised me?"
Chenxing, oblivious of his internal turmoil, served a bowl of plain porridge. "I don’t hate you, and I hope you won’t harass a little nurse like me. The only thing I want to do now is to hope that you can stop being so picky and eat a little food. Could you cooperate with my work?"
Gu Shaocheng immediately opened his eyes: "You don’t hate me?"
Chenxing shook her head,n, "What is there to hate? Do I hate you for causing the loss of my parents, or do I hate you for avenging my substitute parents? I cannot make sense of the past resentments, and don’t even know who to blame. I don’t want to be consumed by hatred, nor do I want to immerse in it. I only want to lead a peaceful life, please stop harassing me!"
She scooped some delicate rice porridge and brought it to her mouth to test the temperature.
It was perfect, neither too hot nor too cold.
She carried the metal spoon to his mouth...
Then the two stiffly held that position for a full minute. Gu Shaocheng opened his mouth, his eyes fixed on her’s refusing to make eye contact, trying to fathom her deepest desires.
She suddenly raised her eyes, clear and without a hint of dark emotions, as if her heart was just as pure. He was somewhat puzzled.
Gu Shaocheng was a man with clear likes and dislikes, holding deep grudges against the past. This made him develop a quirky personality, sometimes even he found himself hard to control. In contrast, the woman in front of him had such a difficult experience but remained pure like a white lotus blooming in the muddy waters of his pond - unperturbed by the silt. He couldn’t understand nor comprehend it...he even forgot to be surprised!
He simply cooperated in opening his mouth, chewing.
He didn’t pay attention to what the porridge tasted like;
He even forgot to relish the taste of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
Only after he had finished all the porridge and the plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, did he leisurely ask, "Really, you don’t hate me anymore?"
Chenxing did not answer him, she cleared the dishes, checked the IV bag, replaced it with a new one, then silently left with the food tray.
A hand suddenly reached out, grabbing her wrist and stopping her in her tracks. She glanced sideways to see Gu Shaocheng’s unmoving gaze, "Stay here with me, a group of black people chattering like birds, I don’t know what they’re saying."
"You said I’m black, it might scare the patients." She said with a vengeful smile.
Gu Shaocheng choked briefly, then his voice deepened, his aura shot up from 30% to 100%: "Aren’t you black? Don’t believe me? Look in the mirror at yourself!"
Men who call women ugly and black are the worst, Chenxing swatted away his hand and strode away!
