Chapter 275 - 277 - I Can’t Live Without You for Even a Minute_1
It took a while before she no longer felt the urge to vomit.
She stumbled back to her bedroom, supported by the wall. Once on her bed, she couldn’t stop scratching. Her whole body itched. Did menstrual cramps really cause pain, vomiting, and itching?
She really didn’t know. When she was a nurse, she had seen people in pain who also vomited, but she had never seen anyone claim to itch.
Chenxing rolled up her sleeve, exposing the glaring red rashes that covered her entire body. She let out a sharp scream, "What... what’s happening?"
Chenxing was scared. She thought it was menstrual pain, but she had never heard menstrual pain could cause so many red rashes.
She didn’t know what to do.
She remembered there was a button on the bedside table to summon the servants.
The bedside table contained a row of buttons, each with a different function. Chenxing wanted to press the button to summon the servants, but she accidentally hit the alarm button instead.
Before she knew what she did, in less than three seconds, the whole villa resounded with sharp and anxiety-inducing alarm sounds.
Gu Shaocheng was in the middle of a poker game with some politicians when he heard the alarm. He instantly stood up, "What’s going on? Where’s the alarm coming from?"
Gu Shaocheng glanced at a subordinate who immediately understood his intentions and ran to check the situation. The once lively and harmonious banquet now had a tense atmosphere.
"Mr. Gu, what’s going on? Has something happened?" asked one of the nervous politicians.
People from other lounges, gaming rooms, and VIP rooms in the casinos started to stir, fearing that something bad had occurred, their minds filling with unease.
A few moments later, his subordinate walked in, leaned towards his ear and said, "Sir, the alarm originated from your bedroom."
Bedroom?
Gu Shaocheng’s eyes widened. Was it something to do with Chenxing?
"Don’t worry, everyone. Continue playing. I’ll be right back. Nothing major has occured, so rest assured." Then, he quickly exited the room and strode down the hallway, his voice cold, "What the hell happened?"
Gu Shaocheng frowned and pulled out his phone to call Chenxing. What was she up to?
But as soon as the call connected, a gut-wrenching sob came from the other end, like a bullet shot directly into his heart.
"Gu Shaocheng... I’m in pain... so much pain... so itchy... I’m suffering so much... I’m going to die... "
Gu Shaocheng hung up the call, and the color drained from his face.
By this time, a few people had started to come out, all asking:
"Mr. Gu, has something happened?"
"Mr. Gu, is there an emergency?"
"Mr. Gu, what happened? Why is there an alarm sounding?"
"..."
Each guest was a veteran in their field, the kind of people who get alarmed at the smallest signs of trouble. They all wanted to leave at once.
Gu Shaocheng looked at the guests, suppressed his anxiety, and joked, "Haha, no problem. It’s my wife, she can’t live without me for even a minute. Since I’m too busy today to accompany her, she’s throwing a bit of a tantrum."
"Mr. Gu, when did you get married? I didn’t even know. Mr. Gu, you’re really letting me down here!"
Gu Shaocheng continued to laugh it off, "I was just going to send out wedding invitations. Brother Zhang, you won’t be able to escape giving me a red envelope. My wife is a bit naughty. If she doesn’t see me, she hits the alarm. I apologize for causing you all this inconvenience. Please continue your games, I’ll be right back."
He beckoned to a server to call over Bai Wuqing and asked him to appease the guests, who were scared out of their wits. He knew that Bai Wuqing was experienced enough to handle this kind of situation, while he quickly went back inside his villa.
