Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 477 - 480: Can’t Control Emotions2_1

This time, before Gu Shaocheng could even blink, he heard her returning footsteps. He then felt Chenxing wiping his chin with a damp towel and applying what seemed to be shaving foam on it.

In that instant, his body tensed up involuntarily.

For many years now, no one had dared to bring any sharp object close to his face. Or put differently, he never allowed anything potentially life-threatening to go near his face.

Such alertness was instinctive.

It was instinct that made him watch her every move.

But when he felt her shaving his face with a razor, that alertness morphed unconsciously from wariness to tender love.

Yes, what he felt wasn’t a threat. It was love.

Her actions came from the heart. The razor cautiously glided from inside to outside on his face. A task so delicate that one careless move could cut his face. His heart skipped a beat in that moment, and he relaxed his whole body.

Chenxing still knelt and concentrated on the task at hand, her thoughts were simple. His beard was too long, and she just wanted to help him out in any way she could. Without even seeking his approval, she decided on it and kept talking while shaving.

"Shaocheng, do you want me to shave your beard every day?"

"Sure." Unexpectedly, a monosyllabic word came out of the room.

Even Gu Shaocheng was taken aback and quickly opened his eyes wide. His view was still somewhat blurry. Then he felt a sudden pain in his chin as the refreshed Chenxing’s hand trembled, and the blade cut his face.

Blood started flowing.

A scream was heard in the room, and Chenxing locked eyes in a stunned shock with a pair of tender, caring eyes.

She was dumbfounded.

Gu Shaocheng touched his chin, his hand covered with foam was now tinted red.

With a playful smirk, Gu Shaocheng said, "I won’t let you shave my beard again."

Chenxing suddenly snapped back to her senses, she promptly sat straight and said, "Shao... Shaocheng?"

"He has awoken..." The first thing she did in her excitement was to shout to people outside the door. But the first thing Gu Shaocheng did after regaining mobility was to pull her into his arms, hold the back of her head. Without caring about the foam and blood on his face, he deftly flipped her over and pressed her down underneath him.

A finger placed over her rosy lips, ", "Shush..."

"Don’t scream. Let me have a good look at you," Gu Shaocheng quietly staggered his words.

His body was weak due to being bedridden for a long while, but it didn’t hinder his dominant revival. Ever so gently, his finger traced along her soft lips, his throaty voice softly stated, "You’ve lost a bit of weight, but your skin is whiter. You’ve been chirping in my ear all this time, it gave me a headache. Why are you so quiet now?"

"...Are you really awake?" Chenxing felt like she was dreaming, a bit giddy. She couldn’t help but pinch his face, and then, as if recalling something, she let go and pinched her own face. It was a strong pinch that made her crease her brows in pain.

Watching this, Gu Shaocheng chuckled, "Silly!"

A second later, his gaze softened further. He lifted his hand to wipe the tear that slipped from the corner of her eye. He wanted to kiss her, as he yearned to do every day. However, before he could act, the silly girl wrapped her arms around his neck and burst into tears, "Why are you being so mean, sleeping for so long? I thought you’d never wake up."
