Gu Qingcheng had just retracted his gaze from the door when he heard knocking sounds on the door.
Gu Qingcheng's heart thumped thrice in response.
"Uncle Qingcheng, are you asleep?"
The young lady's soft and delicate voice was so pleasant to the ears that it made one's fingertips go numb. Gu Qingcheng cleared his throat and responded, then got up to open the door.
His aunt said that she was still hugging a pillow tonight. She looked up at him, smiling at him. "Uncle Qingcheng, I'm here to freeload on your bed again tonight!"
"Liuli! I have to work at night! If I stay here, I'll affect your rest! It's not convenient for me to work either. You're a big girl now, and you've been here for two days. You should be familiar with the place!"
Gu Qingcheng had just finished speaking when Yun Liuli raised a finger. "This is the last time, Uncle Qingcheng. I'm not too familiar with your family. If you don't accompany me, I won't be able to sleep! Please!"
The little girl had a pitiful expression on her face.
Alright, Gu Qingcheng had once again become soft-hearted without any principles!
He gripped the door handle tightly and said to Yun Liuli, "Tonight, you're not allowed to put your arms and legs on me!"
"Did I affect your sleep, Uncle Qingcheng?" Yun Liuli asked.
Gu Qingcheng recalled the two consecutive nights of loving dreams and nodded. "Mm …"
"Alright, I'll definitely sleep by the side tonight!" After thinking about it, the young lady added, "Then can I hug Uncle Qingcheng's arm?"
Gu Qingcheng: "..."
"Just one arm …" Yun Liuli's teary eyes were filled with pleading.
Gu Qingcheng once again nodded without any principles. "Okay!"
The young lady got onto Gu Qingcheng's bed as she wished. Just like yesterday, she unbuttoned her pajamas as though there was no one else around. Gu Qingcheng couldn't bear to reprimand her, so he turned around.
However, Yun Liuli's graceful figure was vaguely reflected on the decorative mirror. It was as if he couldn't control his gaze.
Gu Qingcheng closed his eyes and cursed himself in his heart. He held back his heavy breathing as he sat in front of the desk, his gaze fixed on the computer screen.
Until the young lady's sweet voice rang out. "Uncle Qingcheng, when are you going to be done with work and sleep?"
Gu Qingcheng looked in Yun Liuli's direction and saw that the young lady had wrapped herself up in a blanket, revealing her little head to look in his direction.
"It will take a while."
"How long is a while?"
Yun Liuli acted out the curiosity of a child and got to the bottom of the matter very well.
Gu Qingcheng looked at the young lady's big, watery eyes and replied, "About an hour. If you're tired, you can sleep first!"
Hearing this, the young lady sat up again, then wrapped herself in the blanket, revealing only one hand as she held her phone and opened Tetris. "Then I'll wait for Uncle Qingcheng to sleep together!"
Seeing that Yun Liuli looked like a young girl addicted to the internet, Gu Qingcheng frowned. He thought of Auntie Li's reminder that she was afraid that Yun Liuli would hurt her eyes if she played with her phone. He said, "Stop playing with your phone. Look at the time now. Go to sleep!"
"What time is it now? Uncle Qingcheng is still working!" The young lady didn't think much of it. "People say that children's teachers are their parents. I learned it from Uncle Qingcheng!"
She's in the right?
"This is my job, and yours is a game. How can it be the same?"
"Then I'm a child and you're an adult. Isn't my game the same as your job? We're both looking at the screen anyway."
In the past, Gu Qingcheng hadn't realized that Yun Liuli had such a glib tongue.
Gu Qingcheng closed his laptop, got up, and even switched off the table lamp. "Sleep!"
Seeing Gu Qingcheng walk toward the bed, Yun Liuli didn't waste any more time. She locked her phone screen and even moved inwards considerately. She lifted the blanket and patted the mattress. "Uncle Qingcheng, come quickly! I'm already sleepy!"
Gu Qingcheng sighed and got onto the bed. Just like last night, he slept on the furthest side.
With his arm in Yun Liuli's embrace, Gu Qingcheng slept terribly. It had only been a few minutes, but he felt as if half the bones in his body had stiffened.
The young lady hugged Gu Qingcheng's arm tightly in her embrace. Gu Qingcheng's little finger was pressed tightly against the young lady's curled up thigh, not daring to move at all.
At two in the morning, Gu Qingcheng listened to the young lady's gentle breathing, not daring to sleep …
He was afraid that if he slept, he'd dream of that spinning scene again, causing him to lose his sense of propriety.
Under the faint moonlight from behind the curtains, Gu Qingcheng gazed at Yun Liuli's sleeping face. Her black hair, which reached her neck, was stuck to the corner of her lips. Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but reach out to push it aside for her. However, his thumb unexpectedly lingered on Yun Liuli's soft lips, seemingly caressing them.
The feeling of this petite mouth sucking on his finger suddenly surfaced. Gu Qingcheng held back his breathing and turned his head away, his mind in a mess.
If this went on, Gu Qingcheng was afraid he wouldn't be able to control himself.
"Uncle Qingcheng …" Yun Liuli's sleepy voice rang out, frowning as if she was upset. "It hurts here!"
Gu Qingcheng's brows twitched. Before he could say anything, the young lady grabbed Gu Qingcheng's large hand and placed it over her heart.
Gu Qingcheng froze. He wanted to pull his hand back, but he couldn't muster up any strength at all.
The young lady placed her petite hand on the back of his hand, crying coquettishly. "Uncle Qingcheng, it hurts!"
It wasn't the left side, it was the right side! That wasn't the heart!
Gu Qingcheng hurriedly got up and switched on the lights. Yun Liuli gazed at Gu Qingcheng with teary eyes. "Uncle Qingcheng, help me take a look!"
Gu Qingcheng gritted his teeth. "I'll ask Auntie Li to come down!"
After saying that, Gu Qingcheng fled in a panic.
When Auntie Li came down, she saw Yun Liuli sleeping in Gu Qingcheng's room. Looking at the pillow, it looked like the two of them were sleeping on the same bed. Her heart couldn't help but thump violently.
Didn't they say that Yun Liuli was Mr. Gu's adopted daughter? Why were the two of them sleeping on the same bed?
Although Yun Liuli had lost her memory and was a "seven-year-old" child, they were both adults!
The more Auntie Li thought about it, the more worried she felt. It wasn't that she was being nosy, but she really had to inform Lin Nuan about this. If the two of them were adopted father and daughter …
Before Auntie Li could finish checking on Yun Liuli, the family doctor was woken up by Gu Qingcheng in the middle of the night. She had already arrived!
After helping with the checkup, the family doctor said that she had already felt Yun Liuli's breasts and didn't find any tumors. It might be growing pains or thickening of her breasts, but it wasn't hyperplasia. However, it was best for her to go to the hospital for a thorough checkup before she could be at ease.
Gu Qingcheng nodded.
After making a round trip in the middle of the night, Yun Liuli was hungry!
She didn't want to go through so much trouble, but she didn't expect Gu Qingcheng's reaction to be so huge, to actually call the family doctor over!
She had thought that as long as she took the initiative, Gu Qingcheng would just give up!
After all, he had a reaction to her!
