After practicing for several days, Qin Chaomu's complexion was obviously much better, and his face was no longer so pale, but his lip color was still very light.

Even when he was sleeping and waking up, he noticed how busy Gu Chu was. He basically went in and out at the same time as Zhen Yuanchao, and sometimes even came back at eleven or twelve o'clock.

Except for that one time, the two of them rarely spent time alone. Gu Chu would come to see him every day. If it happened to be meal time, he would feed him something to eat and talk about trivial things happening outside.

But it's obvious that the important thing is being avoided, even if it's about two people.

Almost a week passed like this. Qin Chaomu was able to get out of bed and walk around, and people from the Daqin family also came.

The night is getting darker, the breeze is blowing, the leaves are rustling, and the unique chirping of birds at night can be heard in the distance, adding a quiet and mysterious atmosphere.

Gu Chu went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then sat on the dressing table to do skin care.

She was wearing a white bathrobe with a champagne-colored nightgown underneath, and her hair was tied up, revealing a plain, flawless face.

Qin Chaomu leaned on the bedside and watched quietly.

Maybe this kind of time is so familiar and strange that it makes me fascinated to watch it.

"I heard that Assistant Yan came to see you several times." Gu Chu's gentle voice came.

After a while, he hummed.

I thought Gu Chu was going to say something, but he just asked as usual: "Have you taken your medicine?"

"have eaten."

"Where's dinner?"

"Eat it too."

Gu Chu hummed, his eyes fell on the beautiful little bonsai on the bedside, and he smiled and said: "What kind of doctor is Dr. Han? I think he looks like a nanny."

Qin Chaomu looked away and pursed his lips before speaking, "He is an expert in botany. He likes to get some potted plants and trees."

Gu Chu smiled and said calmly, "Did he teach you how to grow that patch of hyacinth?"

White hyacinth, the love that dare not speak out.

After a while, a dark and slightly hoarse voice came, "I grew it myself."

"I love so much."

The fingertips moved, and the man's dark eyes looked up at her calmly, as silent as the bottom of an abyss, his Adam's apple rolled, but he still did not speak.

Gu Chu looked at the man's averted gaze and slowed down in applying hand cream.

Sometimes she would be like this now, not knowing whether to be angry or distressed, and her liver would hurt from anger, but she couldn't get angry with him.

"I said I like it very much." Gu Chu spoke again.

The man's thin lips pursed into a straight line, and his fingers gripped the sheets tighter.

He said calmly and hoarsely, "I'm sorry."

Gu Chu frowned, feeling a little unable to keep up with Qin Chaomu's reaction.

After being lonely for a few seconds, he spoke again, "I was very bad to you at that time, and I couldn't control my temper."

After a pause, he continued: "That night I dragged you back to the room and made you fall. I was afraid that I would bump into you. If...if I couldn't stop and really bumped into you..."

He couldn't imagine that scene, and even thinking about it now made him feel cold all over.

He ran over impulsively to let her know that he could help her now and wanted to be with her again.

But as he calmed down these days, he discovered that no matter what, the current Gu family was already mixed with Zhen's flesh and blood, and it was impossible for her and Zhen Yuanchao to be separated.

He stared at the sheets, not hearing that person's voice for a long time, and his heart contracted little by little. Finally, his stiff fingers took out a brocade box from under the pillow, and his cold finger joints turned slightly white.

"I found this ring, it should be very important to you." He put the brocade box beside the bed, his quiet voice had a sense of death, but his voice was always light, low and hoarse. "I gotta go."

Silence.

The moonlight was like water, and the pleasant scent of shower gel lingered in the quiet air.

Gu Chu got up and walked over. At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Aunt Li's voice also came at the same time, "Miss, the noodles are cooked. Are you going to the study to eat?"

"Bring it in."

As soon as Gu Chu finished speaking, Aunt Li opened the door and walked in, placing the soup bowl on the dinner plate on the table.

When he walked to the door, he seemed to have thought about it, then turned around and asked Qin Chaomu, "You said you would eat later, do you want to eat with the eldest lady now?"

Qin Chaomu pursed his lips immediately.

Sure enough, the man raised his eyes and glanced at him, and then ordered: "I'll share it with him. I can't finish it anyway."

"Well, if that's not enough, please let me know and the next bowl of noodles will be served soon." Aunt Li came over and opened a small table and placed it on the bed.

"Okay." Gu Chu Wenwen replied calmly, took out half of the noodles with his chopsticks, carefully poured some soup over, and then moved in front of the man.

Qin Chaomu pursed his lips, stared at her face, and said softly, "I'm not hungry."

Gu Chu handed him the chopsticks, "Just because you're not hungry is no reason for you to lie to me."

He looked at her, his deep eyebrows and dark eyes.

"If you don't eat it, it will turn to mush. Eat it quickly."

She was frowning, urging him, with the same unhappy expression, but there was no gloom in her brows, more like her usual temper tantrum.

Qin Chaomu took the chopsticks in her hand, hummed, and obediently lowered his head to eat the noodles.

In fact, Gu Chu didn't know how to take care of people. Seeing that he could move around, he naturally ignored the pain in his arm.

Plus this man is too tolerant.

Although it was difficult, the man could not take smaller bites than she did. He would finish the meal in a few big bites. After finishing the meal, he would look at her quietly, with deep silence and concentration that could draw people in.

When Gu Chu finished eating the noodles, a glass of warm milk was placed in her hand. As if she was used to his service, she raised her head and drank a few big sips. It was funny to think about it after she finished drinking.

Especially when I took the tissue handed over by the man, the joy was mixed with some unspeakable heartache.

"If you haven't eaten, you haven't eaten. Why did you lie to me and say you ate."

Qin Chaomu moved his lips and finally said only a few words: "I won't do it next time."

It was too late, he didn't want to let himself be so naive when it came to eating, and the potion he had taken gave him no appetite at all.

Gu Chu came over and turned the bedside lamp to the darkest level, and said calmly: "Go to sleep, I'm going to sleep too."

When he stood up, someone grabbed his wrist. Gu Chu looked up and saw the man's deep and unpredictable eyes, as clear as ever, but a little deeper than before.

He seemed to want to remind her that the ring hadn't been taken away yet, but he couldn't speak.

Finally he relaxed his strength.

The lights in the bedroom were dim. Under the short black hair, the man's profile looked even more handsome, and his thin lips looked stubborn.

Gu Chu's eyes fell on the brocade box, and he spoke calmly, "Did you run here desperately just to return the ring to me? Did you risk your life to come here just for this? Then apologize to me. ?”

"Qin Chaomu, are you naive?"

"No." The man's brows immediately darkened. After a while, he still replied calmly, his words cryptic, "I still have something to do." (End of Chapter)
