C38 Do You Want Me Tonight

"Sister-in-law, your paintings are so good. I also want your paintings. Next time, you can also draw me a painting." With that, Li Shao Han returned to his room.

Gu Zhiqiu returned to her room and looked at the painting in her hand. She reached out her hand and gently touched the persimmon on the painting.

The year she was fourteen, autumn.

The persimmon trees in the yard had borne fruit. She said, "The persimmon is ripe. Do you want to eat it? I'll pick it for you."

He laughed at her and said, "The persimmon is the food of the bird. How can you fight with the bird for food?"

She opened her eyes wide and argued, "There are so many persimmon trees. The bird is enough to eat. It can't be that you have never eaten persimmon before, right? Persimmon cakes? Have you never eaten them before? What a pity. Persimmon cakes are so delicious."

"Is it really that delicious? Then you make it for me. I'll try it reluctantly."

She didn't go to draw the persimmon tree because she liked to eat the persimmon. However, every autumn, when she saw the orange-colored persimmon emitting a golden glow, she would think of the young man who was in the prime of his youth when he was only 14 years old. The corner of his mouth raised up, and he would only be willing to eat the persimmon cake that she made because he was' reluctant '.

Her heart was scalded by the hot iron. Gu Zhi Qiu's impulse could not be restrained in the dark night and came immediately.

She took out the scribble board, endured the pain in her heart and the sourness at the tip of her nose, and wrote a line of words on the scribble board. Without any hesitation, she opened the door and walked quickly to Li Zhan Chen's door and knocked on it.

Inside, Li Zhan Chen thought that she wouldn't come, but suddenly, he heard a knock on the door, causing him to be slightly startled. He got off the bed and opened the door.

Outside the door stood Gu Zhi Qiu. Her face was pale white, and she was holding the scribble board in her hand. There was a line of words written on it.

Do you still want me tonight?

This line of words was the boldest explanation that Gu Zhi Qiu could write down. If she made it clear, she would definitely be hated, and Li Zhan Chen would definitely chase her away.

Along with the sound of the rain outside, Gu Zhi Qiu's heart was completely frozen. The rain fell onto the ice.

Tonight, I can only hope that you will be even more cruel to me, so that my heart will be completely gray and cold so that I can be freed from the cage I am trapped in.

Gu Zhi Qiu was waiting, waiting for Li Zhan Chen's disgusted gaze, waiting for his beautiful and sexy thin lips to open slightly, saying cold words, mocking or banishing.

Right now, she was willing to bear all of this.

Li Zhan Chen did not expect Gu Zhi Qiu to be so straightforward. He did not react for a few seconds. Then, he looked at the white gauze on her neck and frowned. "Your neck is injured and needs to be healed. You can't do any strenuous exercise, you should know."

Gu Zhi Qiu knew that this would be the answer. Even if he did not mock or mock her, he would definitely be so tactful.

She had originally come here to seek abuse, so her heart was in pain right now. She was really stupid. Why did she come here to cause trouble for her?

Nodding her head, Gu Zhiqiu turned around and was about to leave. Li Zhan Chen looked at her delicate shoulder and gently raised his wrist. He seemed to have lost control of himself and grabbed her arm in an instant.

Gu Zhi Qiu looked back at him blankly. Her eyes were a little empty and ethereal, as if she was not looking at him, but looking at something through him.

She would often do this. Occasionally, she would look at him with this kind of ethereal gaze, and no one knew what she was thinking.

He slightly tightened his grip on her place to stimulate her to come back to her senses. Sure enough, Gu Zhi Qiu came back to her senses.

Li Zhan Chen pursed his lower lip and said, "Come in. "

Gu Zhi Qiu blinked her eyes and thought that she had misheard, but Li Zhan Chen's expression did not change, causing Gu Zhi Qiu to panic.

He, did he want it again?

Seeing that she was panicking, Li Zhan Chen let go of her and said lightly, "I told you to come to my room at night, so you can sleep here tonight. I won't do anything."

Gu Zhi Qiu was at a loss. She thought of something and quickly wrote on the writing board: But usually, after I finish, I return to my room. If I don't do anything, I'm in your room. What should I do?

Li Zhan Chen lowered his head, turned around and went back to his room. After he entered, he said, "Of course I'm going to sleep. Come in."

Gu Zhi Qiu's heart was pounding so hard that she swallowed her saliva and walked in. This was not the first time she had entered this room. She often came here in the past year, but this was the first time she had to stay here until morning.

Previously, she had a fearless attitude towards death, but now she began to be afraid.

"Go take a bath. Be careful not to touch your wound when you take a bath, or else you will be the one suffering." Li Zhan Chen had already taken a bath. He went back to his bed and picked up the book. The dim lamp shone on his face, making him look so handsome and mature.

Gu Zhi Qiu's heartbeat became even more erratic. She put down the writing board in a panic and went into the bathroom.

After closing the door, Gu Zhiqiu let out a sigh of relief and closed her eyes.

She was really useless. With just a few words, she was able to coax her in circles. With just a bit of gentleness, she immediately lost her arrogance.

As expected, a gentle knife was the most terrifying.

She carefully went to the bath and left her neck out. She took a bath and put on her pajamas. She blew on her hair and looked at her face in the mirror carefully. She found that her complexion seemed to be a little better after the bath, and she felt a little more at ease in her heart.

After blowing on her hair, she went out. Li Zhan Chen was still reading. Everything in the room was the same as before, but she felt that it was a little unfamiliar.

Gu Zhiqiu slowly walked around to Li Zhan Chen's side and got on the bed.

The bed was very large, so Gu Zhiqiu tried her best to lean against her side and lie down at a distance from Li Zhan Chen.

There was only one blanket on the bed. When Li Zhan Chen saw that she was sleeping at the side, he furrowed his brows and said, "Come over. If you can't cover yourself with the blanket and catch a cold, I'll be responsible again."

Gu Zhi Qiu blinked her eyes and sat up obediently. She moved the pillow a little.

Li Zhan Chen was a little annoyed.

"Are you afraid of sleeping close to me?" Li Zhan Chen reached out his hand to grab the pillow and placed it next to his own pillow. He ordered, "Sleep here tonight."

Gu Zhi Qiu stared at him with watery eyes. After hesitating for a moment, she still obediently went over and lay down very close to him. Her hands could even touch his skin. She deliberately retracted her hands uncomfortably and tightened them a little.

Li Zhan Chen put down the book and turned off the light. He also laid down in the darkness.

Beside him was Gu Zhi Qiu. This was the first time the two of them had slept together like this.

In fact, from the moment they got married, he had never left her to sleep in this room. Rather, it would be more accurate to say that their wedding night was really bad.

Because of his anger, he mercilessly chased her out of the room and told her that they would always be strangers.
