C88 Ice
Ye Tian was stunned. Feeling the unique coolness of the man, she quickly wanted to get up.
However, just as she tried to move, the pain in her ankle made her movements slightly sluggish, and she couldn't help but let out a soft hiss.
"Don't move."
Gu Qinian's deep voice suddenly sounded beside her ear, and a warm breath brushed past her ear.
She was slightly startled, and then she saw Gu Qinian release her. He held her wrist with one hand and squatted down to check her ankle.
The trousers were lifted a little, and Gu Qinian looked at it carefully before getting up.
"It's just a sprain. It's not swollen. You can apply ice compressions on it when you go back."
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at the wild cat that was still circling around Ye Tian and frowned.
"Why did you come out instead of staying in the room?"
Ye Tian's eyes sparkled, and there was a hint of indifference in her eyes. She shrugged her shoulders.
"I don't like this kind of occasion at all. It's better to come out and play with a cat."
Gu Qinian pursed his thin lips and bent down slightly. His hand landed on Ye Tian's ankle.
Ye Tian was shocked and hurriedly supported his shoulder to stop him, "What are you doing?"
Gu Qinian's black eyes moved slightly, and the corner of his mouth curled up. "What do you think I'm doing? Can you still walk now?"
"I can still... It's just a little pain."
However, Gu Qinian directly carried her in his arms, and Ye Tian subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck in shock.
"Hey! If you do this, people will see!"
Gu Qinian raised his eyebrows, "So what if they see? Don't forget, we're a couple. I'm hugging my own wife, so what if they see?"
Ye Tian was stunned by his words. Looking at the spring in his eyes, her face suddenly turned red.
For some reason, she felt that the man in front of her was becoming more and more different.
Especially today, he seemed to be in a good mood. There was a faint smile in his eyes, and even his speech was much lighter than usual.
Her heartstrings were being gently touched. Ye Tian pursed her lips, wanting to cover the smile that could not help but appear on her face, but the sparkle in her clear eyes revealed her joy.
Gu Qinian saw this and felt that she was especially charming at this moment, making him want to get closer.
Suppressing the waves in his heart, he turned around and calmly led her away.
Although the balcony was very close to the entrance of the banquet hall and there was no one around, Gu Qinian was born to be a glowing object. Wherever he was, there would be countless gazes.
Soon, someone noticed his figure carrying Ye Tian, and a lot of discussions were raised.
"Oh my god! Why did Director Gu come out with that woman? What's going on?"
"Oh my god! Isn't this too much love? Didn't they say that a couple is just putting on an act?"
"That was all made up by the media. Who knows if it's true or not? Besides, everyone was saying that Director Gu fell in love with Ye Ziyan, but no matter how I look at it, he only took care of her a little. After all, she was his savior, but there was nothing else."
"I see that Director Gu is quite interested in that woman. His gaze on her is different!"
"That's right, I'm jealous..."
...
Ye Tian didn't know what they were talking about.
At this moment, there were only the two of them in the elevator, and Gu Qinian was still unwilling to let her go. He was still maintaining the posture of a princess.
Ye Tian's heart felt like it had been melted, and the temperature was gradually rising. She inexplicably felt hot.
"Ye Tian."
Gu Qinian suddenly called out to her. She subconsciously raised her head and saw him looking at her with his eyes lowered and his eyebrows raised. His angular face seemed to have become much gentler under the light.
"Your face is very red."
Ye Tian let out an "Ah!" and quickly stretched out a hand to fan herself, quickly finding an excuse.
"I drank a little too much wine, maybe... the aftereffects of this wine are a little too strong."
"Your heart is also very fast."
Ye Tian tugged the corner of her mouth, unable to hold it in any longer. "Are you annoying or not? I already said that it was because of the wine!"
Seeing that she was angry out of embarrassment like a little kitten with its claws out, Gu Qinian was in a good mood. He actually let out a light laugh from his throat.
Ye Tian was stunned when she heard him.
Ever since the two of them got married, she and Gu Qinian had become enemies. This was the first time she had heard him laugh in such a sarcastic manner.
So he could also laugh so easily and naturally to her.
This thought flashed through her mind, causing Ye Tian to be slightly absent-minded. By the time she reacted, she was already on the bed.
She looked around and realized that the room wasn't very big, but it was very warm and comfortable.
What surprised her the most was that there was a small courtyard outside the balcony of the room. There was a hot spring inside the courtyard, and steam was rising from it.
"There's a hot spring in this room? Isn't that too much?"
Ye Tian was overjoyed and quickly climbed up to the bed. However, before she could reach the bed, she was pulled back by Gu Qinian.
"Sit tight, don't move. Do you want to walk tomorrow?"
Ye Tian saw him standing by the bed and looking at her unhappily, so she curled her lips and complied.
At this moment, the staff brought the ice cubes that Gu Qinian wanted. The latter took a towel from the bathroom and wrapped it around his body before sitting on the bed.
Ye Tian moved back a little and leaned her back against the headboard. She stretched out her hand to him. "Give it to me. I'll just apply it myself."
However, Gu Qinian only glanced at her before casually placing her foot on his leg and applying the ice on her.
"Hiss..."
The ice-cold touch went through her skin and circled around her blood. Ye Tian couldn't help but shudder.
The comfortable feeling that followed made her relax a lot.
Gu Qinian lowered his eyes and stared at the area on her ankle. His movements were sloppy, and his movements were very light.
Ye Tian raised her eyelids and looked over, and she couldn't move her eyes away.
At this moment, he had withdrawn from his coldness and hostility, and he no longer had that kind of lofty distance.
He was right beside her, taking care of her.
The warm yellow light outlined his serious figure even more clearly. His side profile was as handsome as usual, but it was different from the usual gentleness.
Ye Tian didn't know if this was her own psychological effect or an illusion.
But she knew that this scene would be engraved in her heart, and it would exist in the deepest part of her heart.
Neither of them spoke, and the air became silent. The atmosphere seemed to have become a little subtle, and there was also an inexplicable feeling of romance.
After a while, Gu Qinian put her feet down and began to change her clothes.
Seeing that, Ye Tian immediately pulled herself out of the subtle mood and asked him with a strange tone, "You... You slept here tonight?"
Gu Qinian unbuttoned his sleeves and raised his eyebrows, "What else? The company only arranged one room for us."
Ye Tian curled her lips when she heard that, "So stingy."
Gu Qinian was speechless.
