Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 997 - 1000: Promise Me, Don’t Cry 4

Could it possibly be He Yingteng?

But why? Just to swap identities? What good does that do her?

Just then, someone knocked on the door, and he ceased his pondering, stretching his hand to pat the girl beside him: "Go check it out."

Chenxing hopped off the bed and quickly slipped on her shoes: "It must be dinner, I just told the butler to bring it over once it’s ready."

As expected, upon opening the door, a dining cart was wheeled in, and the butler stood by the window with a worried expression: "Sir, is your leg feeling any better? Shall we call Doctor He to have another look?"

Gu Shaocheng glanced at the dishes with indifference, half suited to his taste, and the other half to Chenxing’s preference.

"Sir..." the butler urged apprehensively.

Gu Shaocheng looked up impatiently: "It’s just a sprained ankle, no big deal."

"Butler, Shaocheng is fine now." Chenxing touched her stomach, truly feeling hungry.

The butler’s gaze drifted back and forth between Chenxing and Gu Shaocheng. Seeing both of them not taking the twisted ankle seriously and already starting to eat, the butler wondered if perhaps he was the one overthinking it?

Maybe it’s true that I’m getting old, my right eyelid has been twitching lately.

After a hearty meal, Gu Shaocheng got out of bed to walk around, limping slightly, with the butler following closely without even blinking. Each step Gu Shaocheng took caused the butler’s eye to twitch until, at last, Gu Shaocheng turned around slowly. The butler, caught off guard, nearly collided with him but fortunately, Gu Shaocheng steadied him.

Gu Shaocheng laughed helplessly: "Alright, see? I’m fine. Go out, don’t disturb our couple’s life."

The butler made an ’eh’ sound and left reassured. Chenxing lay on the bed, squashing "stuffed toy Shaocheng," swinging her legs back and forth: "The butler is really nice, huh? His concern is just like that of an elder."

"You’re not wrong. When I first joined the Gu Family, many people looked down on me, but the butler was the only one who never showed me a cold face," he said as he pounced onto the bed, pinning down Chenxing. His dark, shining eyes carried an electric charge as he gazed at her for a while, then hugged and kissed her for a good while, asking with a mischievous smile: "Wifey, with the long night ahead, full of food and drink, what entertaining activity have you thought of to pass the time? Your husband can only stay in the bedroom tonight, can’t go out, I’m bored."

"Then let’s watch a movie," Chenxing suggested, blinking her eyes.

"What to do, you’re even more captivating than a movie."

Upon those words, the room temperature followed suit and rose, even a hint of sultriness began to surface.

Chenxing’s cheeks flushed with color.

Gu Shaocheng nibbled on her most beautiful eyes with a deep and huskily magnetic voice: "Chenxing."

"Hmm?" She responded tenderly with charm to his gentle call.

Even after knowing each other for so long, and spending so much time together, whenever he called her name with that deep, affectionate voice, her heart would involuntarily skip a beat, trembling sweetly to the core.

She thought his next move would be to press his lips against hers, but Gu Shaocheng remained silent for a long while without further action.

Chenxing blinked her cute, puzzled eyes: "What’s up?"

His hand gently caressed her face, inch by inch, "Promise me, please don’t cry."

"Hmm?"

"From now on, no matter what happens, no matter what happens to my body in the future, do not shed tears in front of me. Smile for me, okay?"
