Auntie Li had to sleep after eating in the middle of the night. Auntie Li was afraid that eating something else wouldn't be good for her digestion.
As it was the middle of the night, Auntie Li prepared the food, and Gu Qingcheng told her to quickly go up and rest.
When they were eating, Yun Liuli's face was still pale. But in that kind of place, it wasn't appropriate for Gu Qingcheng to ask her openly. He merely said, "When you wake up tomorrow morning, I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup!"
"No need!" Yun Liuli held her chopsticks, then picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of soup. "I've been in pain in the past. Mommy just had to rub it for me … Uncle Qingcheng, you don't have to go through so much trouble next time! Just rub it for me!"
Rub!
Gu Qingcheng's scalp tightened.
"Liuli, Uncle Qingcheng is a man, and you're a girl. So if it hurts next time, you can get Auntie Li to rub it for you."
Yun Liuli pursed her lips and said against her conscience, "I don't like unfamiliar people touching me!"
Gu Qingcheng put down his chopsticks, feeling that there were some things he had to say to Yun Liuli. "Liuli, Uncle Qingcheng is a man, and you're a girl. There are differences between men and women, so don't take off your clothes in front of any men in the future. Don't let any man other than your husband touch you, understand?"
Yun Liuli looked at Gu Qingcheng with her big black eyes and asked, "Is it because Uncle Qingcheng isn't my husband, so he can't rub it for me?"
Gu Qingcheng nodded.
"That's easy! I'll just let Uncle Qingcheng be my husband!" Yun Liuli replied innocently.
Gu Qingcheng's heart skipped a beat, thumping uncontrollably.
Their gazes met. Yun Liuli's gaze was so clean that it was frightening.
"I can't. I'm your elder!" Gu Qingcheng found it hard to say these words.
"Can't an elder be a husband?" Yun Liuli frowned.
Gu Qingcheng nodded.
"Why?"
An elder who wasn't related by blood … How was Gu Qingcheng going to explain this to Yun Liuli?
He wasn't willing to argue with Yun Liuli over this issue, so he lied and returned to his room.
Yun Liuli wasn't in a hurry at all. She finished the soup and returned to Gu Qingcheng's room. Lying on the bed, she saw that Gu Qingcheng was still pretending to work. She didn't pester Gu Qingcheng this time and just lay down to sleep.
Due to the torment last night, Yun Liuli woke up late. By the time she opened her eyes, it was already 11 pm.
Gu Qingcheng had already asked Auntie Li to clean up the study and move it to the study to work so as not to disturb Yun Liuli's rest.
Moreover, Gu Qingcheng had his own plans.
Yun Liuli was a young lady. When she came to Gu Qingcheng in a delicate manner and told him that she wanted to sleep with him, how could Gu Qingcheng not allow it?
Since he couldn't reject Yun Liuli's watery eyes, he agreed and worked in the study all night. This way, he could avoid Yun Liuli.
With this in mind, when Yun Liuli said that she wanted to sleep with Gu Qingcheng again at night, Gu Qingcheng told her to sleep first. He still had work to do.
Yun Liuli was also very obedient. She climbed onto Gu Qingcheng's big bed, but she kept her eyes open. When it was 2 am, Yun Liuli sensed that something wasn't right.
When she went to the study, she could still hear the sound of Gu Qingcheng typing on the computer keyboard. Feeling that she was overthinking things, she fell asleep not long after returning to her room.
When she woke up the next day, Yun Liuli looked at the pillow next to her. There were no marks on the pillow. This was enough to prove that Gu Qingcheng hadn't come back to sleep last night.
Yun Liuli got up with a dark expression. After washing up, she looked at herself in the mirror, and her lips curled up.
Actually, she had expected this to happen. Gu Qingcheng would always avoid her …
But Yun Liuli understood Gu Qingcheng, so she was especially good at pressuring him. She wasn't anxious at all. She still had a strong medicine waiting for Gu Qingcheng …
That night, Gu Qingcheng still used work as an excuse to go to the study. Although Yun Liuli wasn't too happy, she still nodded.
Thinking that he had already fooled the young lady, Gu Qingcheng washed up in the guest room and rested in the study after finishing his work.
Yun Liuli carried the pillow to the door of the study, placed it on the floor, and curled up at the door to sleep.
Who didn't know how to play the trick of self-injury? Yun Liuli was bent on taking down Gu Qingcheng. Since she had already started, she wasn't willing to stop.
Yun Liuli was very patient. She had waited for so many years, so she didn't mind waiting a few more days. She would eventually be able to take down Gu Qingcheng.
She closed her eyes. The floor was slightly cold. She could even imagine Gu Qingcheng's expression tomorrow morning when he saw her sleeping at the door like this.
There was a smile on Yun Liuli's lips. She held onto her phone and played Tetris. Sleepiness overwhelmed her, and she kept struggling to keep her eyelids open. She locked her phone screen and fell asleep on the floor.
Without Yun Liuli hugging his arm, Gu Qingcheng still couldn't sleep.
All he could think of when he closed his eyes was Yun Liuli. The more time he spent with Yun Liuli, the lower Gu Qingcheng's bottom line toward her became.
It could even be said that for the past few days, Yun Liuli had been stepping on Gu Qingcheng's bottom line, pushing it lower and lower.
Early in the morning, Gu Qingcheng came out of the study. The moment he opened the door, he saw Yun Liuli sleeping at the door. The young lady was like an abandoned puppy, curled up at the door. His heart instantly tightened.
"Xiao Liuli …" Gu Qingcheng squatted down, frowning. "Xiao Liuli …"
Yun Liuli rubbed her eyes in a daze. She saw that Gu Qingcheng was clearly still drowsy, but she revealed a bright smile at him. "Uncle Qingcheng, are you done with your work? Let's go back to our room to sleep!"
That meant that Yun Liuli had been waiting for him here for the entire night?
Gu Qingcheng's Adam's apple vibrated slightly, and his palms unconsciously clenched together, his heart aching for her.
"You've been waiting here for the entire night?" Gu Qingcheng's deep voice sounded a little hoarse.
The young lady rubbed her eyes and sat up. "The entire night …"
She turned back to look at the floor-to-ceiling windows, only to realize that the sky had already turned bright …
"Uncle Qingcheng, you've been working for the entire night!" The young lady sat there, gazing at Gu Qingcheng with heartache in her eyes. "Then … quickly go back to your room and sleep for a while!"
Yun Liuli helped Gu Qingcheng to his feet, then pulled him back to the bedroom. Gu Qingcheng stood there without moving, feeling so guilty that his heart ached.
Without pulling Gu Qingcheng, Yun Liuli turned back. She didn't see the fatigue in Gu Qingcheng's eyes after staying up all night. Her lips moved slightly, and her fair hands slowly loosened their grip on Gu Qingcheng's clothes, letting them hang by her sides.
Gu Qingcheng's Adam's apple vibrated. He said, "Go back to your room and sleep for a while!"
"Uncle Qingcheng …" The young lady called out to Gu Qingcheng softly, then asked timidly, "You slept in the study last night, right?"
Gu Qingcheng could hear the choking in the young lady's voice as he nodded.
