Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 983 - 986: The Tip of the Iceberg Amidst Thick Fog 10

Luo Xi remained silent.

Yan Fengchi became anxious without an answer: "You don’t want to?"

She scooped another bite of rice: "Let me think about it."

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

"Shaocheng!" The woman sitting on the swing, upon hearing the familiar footsteps, immediately jumped off and ran towards their source. She saw the tall and upright man, excitedly walked over to hook his arm, tilting her head up with a smile: "You’re back?"

"You were waiting for me?"

"Yeah," she nodded playfully, "I sent you a text but you didn’t reply. I didn’t know when you’d be back, so I waited here for you."

He slightly curled the corner of his mouth, rubbing her hair: "I went to see Mom and Dad, turned off my phone. Have you been waiting long?"

"No, just for a little while. Have you had dinner yet?" So he went to visit the graves, no wonder he smelled of earth.

Gu Shaocheng shook his head: "I’m a bit hungry."

"Luckily, I asked the butler to save some dinner for you," Chenxing didn’t know why he suddenly wanted to visit his parents; it might be a sudden yearning or perhaps he had something on his mind. She couldn’t help but feel heartache for him. He wasn’t ill today again, was he? In the past, Gu Shaocheng was the only one experiencing these worrisome days. Now Chenxing was more anxious than him all day, neither daring to ask nor wanting him to silently suffer alone without telling her.

After having dinner, while taking a bath, Chenxing would transform into a masseuse, letting him soak while she professionally massaged his whole body.

Gu Shaocheng saw it and wanted to say something but swallowed his words, only smiling as he pulled her into the bathtub with him: "Join me for a bath. I’m fine, why the serious massage?"

"Really fine?"

"Today, yes. Occasionally I have flare-ups, but the doctor said I’m lucky, the progress of my illness is much slower than most people. Some patients go from feeling something’s wrong to complete paralysis in just two short months. It’s been half a year for me, and it’s just occasional spasms. Stop looking at me with those worried eyes all the time, it bothers me."

Ever since he’s been open about his illness, Gu Shaocheng has stopped hiding things from her and has become much more unreserved when speaking.

The warm water made their hearts warm as well, and the two accidentally ignited passion while soaking in the bathtub, sending the room’s temperature soaring.

After a passionate encounter, they lay comfortably in bed. Gu Shaocheng habitually prepared a book by the bedside, put on his gold-framed glasses, picked up a book, and leisurely read it before sleeping.

Chenxing couldn’t do the same, so she lay on his lap scrolling through her phone happily, shamelessly eating a piece of chocolate with relish.

Even if Gu Shaocheng glared at her chocolate, she wasn’t afraid of him, returning the gaze, "You said I could eat in bed 10 times a month."

Heh, now she’s really not afraid of him at all, allowing him to glare however he likes, doing as she pleases, even daring to stuff her half-eaten chocolate into his mouth. Gu Shaocheng rarely got angry with her, as it seemed that both of them knew how hard-won these happy moments were and that any day they could be shattered.
