Chapter 69: Skip Work and Accompany You
Proofread by Peter Gong
An Rong listens to these words and nods repeatedly, “Right, right, you quickly go up to rest in case of a sequela.” Going upstairs, Su Ni retorts, “I have to go to the company.” “Su family has enough hands.” Gu Zechen says slightly. “Not necessarily.” Su Ni is a little unhappy, and looks at Gu Zechen and continues: “then Gu is bigger than Su, but I do not find you ever skip work. But at this time, I have to be more careful. I don’t know what other means Yin has.” Gu Zechen said before that Yin did not have the courage. Now it seems that Gu Zechen has taken too lightly the enemy. Gu Zechen frowns and looks unhappy. After a pause of a few seconds, he says again, “Yin will not have this chance again. Su can rest assured.” “But…” “Enough!” Gu Zechen’s patience is running out. He raises his voice and yells at her. Then he says calmly, “Tomorrow, you can rest at home, and don’t go anywhere. If I have time, I’ll come back to see you.” Su Ni’s eyes blink and her mouth curls up, and she can’t help asking, “well, are you skipping work and visiting me?”
“Su Ni!” Gu Zechen lowers his gaze, stares at Su Ni coldly, and says, “Don’t push your luck.” “All right.” Su Ni can read Gu Zechen’s mind, and her heart is not happy. In front of Gu Zechen, she opens the ring gift box again and shakes it in front of Gu Zechen. “The ring you gave me, I almost thought I lost it just now.” Gu Zechen has been seated in front of his desk, picking up a book without looking back. “Why not put it on?” he asks. He remembers that when he was at Yin’s house, Su Ni had nothing on her hand. “Not willing.” Su Ni whispers. Gu Zechen looks back curiously, only to see Su Ni’s two slender legs resting on the sofa, and her body leaning back slightly. A dark green bra dress in the dim light sets her body off as white as jade. Su Ni lifts her hair, and her eyebrows and eyes are gentle and delicate. She pouts her mouth slightly and says with some dissatisfaction, “Have you ever seen anyone who puts a ring on her own hand?” “Didn’t you use to wear a ring for yourself in the name of Mrs. Gu?” Gu Zechen does not hesitate to diss her.
Su Ni’s face turns red. She keeps Gu Zechen in the dark about that all the time. That time, she was so careless that it was left in the car. “That is …That’s… ” Su Ni stutters and a good idea occurs to her. She immediately raises her voice and says, “That’s the ring I bought myself. I have to wear it myself. Now you give it to me. Can it be the same? You must help me to wear it. “Trouble!” Gu Zechen unhappily spits out two words. He doesn’t refuse her directly, which makes Su Ni look happy and charming. She lowers her voice, and her foot rubs Gu Zechen gently and she says, “honey, help me.” Gu Zechen does not speak, sitting still on the chair. “Honey!” Su Ni raises her voice and gets a little angry. “Wear it directly.” Gu Zechen’s face stiffens, looking impatient, and he leaves Su Ni alone. “Well, then.” Su Ni sighs with disappointment. “Pa”, she closes the ring box on the table without a thought. “And what do you want to do?” Gu Zechen hears the voice, impatiently turning round to ask her. Su Ni doesn’t look at him, either. He goes to the sofa, stretches out his arms and shakes his fingers. Gu Zechen’s face is still rigid, but the corners of his mouth are shaking with cramps.
Time seems to stand silent. Beautiful hair blocks Su Ni’s face and her look. Only her heartbeat can be heard. Take a deep breath secretly, Su Ni looks at the desk from the corner of her eyes. There is nothing to be heard or seen. This guy is so ruthless to keep her holding it all the time. She feels her hands become numb. Suddenly, feeling her fingertips hot, Su Ni immediately looks up and sees Gu Zechen’s opening the ring box without expression on his face. “Are all women as troublesome and pretentious as you?” Gu Zechen asks without raising his head. “A woman will only show trouble in front of the man she loves.” Su Ni’s eyes are shining, and she stares at Gu Zechen, smiling in response. Gu Zechen still lowers his head and perfectly avoids Su Ni’s eyes. He pretends to calmly take out the ring, holds the slender finger and slowly puts it on. At that moment, Gu almost holds his breath subconsciously. And Su Ni also puts away her smile, with a touch of indescribable emotion in her eyes. Time is slow. Su Ni looks at her fingers with a sense of restraint. The small diamond radiates a dazzling light under the light. “Don’t flirt with me in the future; you know I’m afraid of trouble.” After wearing her the ring, Gu Zechen suddenly feels relieved and relaxed, which makes him feel uncomfortable.
Su Ni takes a sniff, and when she comes back to her senses, she finds that the corners of her eyes are moist. Su Ni rubs her eyes and pretends to be careless. “Now I’m Mrs. Gu. I won’t be mocked later.” Gu Zechen pretends not to hear, and quickly walks towards the desk, but in the end he opens the balcony, and his figure rushes out in a haste. It isn’t sultry in the room, but he feels a bit choked to breathe. Alone on the balcony, bathing in the summer wind silently, he also takes a deep breath, which sobers him a lot. Su Ni also loses the fun of playing with the ring. Gu Zechen’s words, “for fear of trouble”, are deeply rooted in Su Ni’s heart. She suddenly thinks of the face in his wallet. She suddenly wonders what kind of person Gu Zechen used to be, and would he think Xu Waner was troublesome? Su Ni sniffs and feels a little heavy. Looking at the empty gift box, Su Ni adjusts her mentality. So far, Gu Zechen has been by her side. At least he doesn’t refuse her for fear of trouble. Su Ni walks to the balcony slowly barefooted, and hugs Gu Zechen from behind. Gu Zechen’s body stiffens and he is about to push away Su Ni. But he is held more tightly by Su Ni. “Thank you, Gu Zechen.” Su Ni says with a nasal voice.
Gu Zechen slows down his action to push her and his hands slowly drop down finally in silence. He says in a low voice: “It is cool outside, let’s go in to rest.” “I just want to be with you.” Her gentle voice mixed with the night wind is particularly pleasant.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Su Ni sniffs, with her head pressing against his back, and whispers, “Do you know? Gu Zechen, I’ve been married to you all these years and it is at this moment today that makes me feel that I’m your real wife.” Gu Zechen purses the corners of his mouth and a trace of sarcasm appears under his eyes. Su Ni cannot see his expression, so she goes on, “Really. Although I often tell you that I’m Mrs. Gu, or as you say, I work under the name of Mrs. Gu, in fact, I know from the bottom of my heart that if I don’t recognize me as your wife, I am just deceiving myself after all. “
