Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 766 - 769: After Happiness, There Is No Way to Go 1_1

It seemed like everything was normal, but he felt that something, every second, was slowly consuming him from the inside...

A low masculine voice combined with heavy breathing reached Chenxing’s ears. She tilted up her head, gazing into his face, "What did you say?"

Gu Shaocheng paused for a moment, his face redder than hers. After catching his breath, he made a joking remark with a smile, "I said, if you’re satisfied with the service, you have to pay."

Chenxing pouted and walked away barefoot. She returned a moment later with her wallet, pulling out a stack of banknotes, "How much do you want? I want to buy you for a lifetime!"

Gu Shaocheng scanned the banknotes, took one from her hand, then pulled her into a tight embrace and started walking towards the bathroom. He continued to kiss her as they walked, "Dreaming are you? I’m only selling you one night!"

----------------------------------------

Having paid, the service was indeed excellent. That night, the two exhausted bodies fell into deep, peaceful slumber in each other’s arms.

The next day, it began pouring rain outside. The ring of a mobile phone coming from the pocket of the trousers carelessly strewn across the floor was giving Chenxing a headache. She woke up first, reaching out from the bed to find the phone. After locating the mobile, she nudged the man sleeping next to her, "Shaocheng, phone call."

He turned over, buried his head in his pillow, and continued to sleep deeply.

Chenxing nudged him again, "It’s your phone."

"Mmm..." Gu Shaocheng responded lazily, but made no next move.

Feeling helpless, Chenxing said, "Then I’m answering it for you."

"...Mmm."

"It seems to be Doctor Tian," she said as she pressed the answer button. The man, who had remained motionless until then, suddenly jolted awake, snatched the phone from her hand, and got out of bed to answer the call. Chenxing grumbled something under her breath and fell back asleep while Gu Shaocheng, topless, walked out to take the call.

"Hmph!" Chenxing hugged a pillow tightly, "It’s not like he was having a secret rendezvous, all so secretive!"

When she woke up again after a nap, Gu Shaocheng had already left. Regretfully messing with her hair, Chenxing wished she hadn’t overslept. Perhaps, they could have had breakfast together.

She wrapped herself in her nightgown and opened the door to the balcony, sitting on the patio to admire the bustling cityscape of Vancouver.

The view from the apartment was great. From her perspective, half was the sea, and half the city. She sat silently, holding a cup of red date and longan porridge.

After finishing the porridge and spacing out for a bit, she reached out to her phone to look for his number.

After ringing four times, the call was picked up. Yet, once connected, she uttered no words. Gu Shaocheng sat in the car, waiting for her to speak. Thus, silence prevailed at both ends of the line for a while.

Chenxing hesitated.

The car came to a halt, and the person in the passenger seat turned to the driver, "Sir, we’re here."

After struggling with her thoughts, Chenxing softly called out his name in a low voice: Shaocheng.

Almost at the same time, the call on the other end hung up.

On the quiet patio, the beeping from the phone spread a profound sense of loneliness from her heart. With it growing stronger, she slowly bit her lip, tilting her head towards the sky. Something was gnawing at her heart as her body slowly tilted to the left. Her eyes closed, tears inexplicably rolled down her face.

She felt that, at this moment, she was like a concubine waiting for his favor.

If the emperor did not turn her card, she could only endure the loneliness and torment.
