Oops! The sickly Mr. Gu fainted again

Gu Yuchen's entire body was in constant pain. He had already been overloaded with work today without his body fully recovered, and Ye Xingyao's "driving skills" had just made him even more miserable.

What made him most distressed was that he discovered that Ye Xingyao could be so cruel that she deliberately made him feel uncomfortable because of his words just to make him give in.

An intense feeling of loneliness and anger filled his mind, making his already aching and dizzy head even more painful. Even the movement of his sight seemed to pull on some nerves, causing his head to buzz.

His vision gradually became blurred, but his mind was still clear. He took heavy steps, and his heart felt like it was splitting apart.

Gu Yuchen pinched his palms with his fingernails to resist the tearing pain, and thought silently: Ye Xingyao, you are really cruel.

I protect you and guard you so much that I can't bear to tell you even when I'm in extreme pain. I can't bear to let you worry about me for even a minute.

But you actually had the heart to use my body to vent your anger.

An intense chill enveloped his heart, and he suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his entire body cold and weak.

Gu Yuchen walked forward with a vague look in his eyes. The feeling of loss was like an iron claw tugging at his heart. He seemed to feel a sharp pain somewhere near his heart, making him dare not even breathe hard.

When Ye Xingyao saw his expression, she felt as if something in her heart had collapsed.

"Gu Yuchen..." Ye Xingyao looked at his staggering yet determined steps. The regret and heartache in her heart instantly surged up from her heart to her throat. She silently tugged at the corner of Gu Yuchen's sleeve from behind, but he shook it off with force.

Ye Xingyao, who was thrown away, stood there in a daze.

She originally wanted to use this method to make Gu Yuchen realize his mistake, let him loosen up, stop enduring the pain alone, and let him take the initiative to say that he was uncomfortable. However, she did not expect that with Gu Yuchen's temper, if anyone confronted him head-on, he would not yield even if he tore himself to pieces.

She had already lost this competition.

"Gu Yuchen... don't be like this..." Ye Xingyao finally couldn't hold back the emotions she had been controlling for so long. She ran to him with a trembling voice and blocked his way.

Gu Yuchen glanced at Ye Xingyao with a cold look in his eyes, then pushed her away coldly and continued walking forward silently.

This look pierced Ye Xingyao's heart and lungs like an ice knife, and she immediately sobbed and couldn't even utter a word.

Gu Yuchen walked to the elevator entrance with great effort. As soon as he entered, he leaned against the elevator, his chest rising and falling as he gasped. The cold sweat on his forehead kept condensing into water beads, which kept sliding down his neck and into his collar. He felt as if his whole body was wrapped in a biting cold wind, making him feel cold from head to toe.

Just as the elevator door was about to close, Ye Xingyao came in at the right time.

She looked at Gu Yuchen, who couldn't even stand steadily, with extremely disordered breathing and big beads of sweat constantly dripping down, and suddenly felt that his condition was much more serious than she thought.

She couldn't help but stretch out her arm, wanting to touch his forehead to check his temperature.

Gu Yuchen noticed her outstretched hand and just as he was about to raise his hand to block her arm, Ye Xingyao quickly knocked his arm down.

She touched his forehead, but the temperature under her hand suddenly startled her.

He actually has a fever?

He has been fine and has not had a fever these days, so why did he suddenly have a fever?

Ye Xingyao looked at him in panic, wondering when he had a fever. He was fine when she fed him porridge at noon, so why did he suddenly get so hot?

Could it be that it was when he was resting after drinking the porridge?

Could it be when he was looking at documents in the office in the afternoon?

Could it be... just now... ?

Ye Xingyao didn't dare to think about it any further. She didn't expect Gu Yuchen to be so determined. He didn't say a word even though he was in so much pain. If it was really because she was angry that his condition got worse, she really couldn't face him, let alone herself.

"Gu Yuchen...you have a fever..." Ye Xingyao stared at Gu Yuchen with tears in her eyes. She spoke softly with an uncontrollable tremor.

When Gu Yuchen heard her voice, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

"So what……"

"Don't you just like seeing me in pain..."

As Gu Yuchen spoke, he leaned against the elevator and shook his head left and right, as if trying to calm the dizziness in front of his eyes.

Unexpectedly, this action made him even more dizzy.

Don’t you just like to see me in pain? This sentence landed heavily on Ye Xingyao’s heart, causing her breathing to pause for a moment.

"Gu Yuchen..."

"I do not have……"

"I'm not……"

Ye Xingyao cried, but suddenly she felt she had nothing to say.

Yes, she clearly knew that he was in great pain at the time, but she still increased the force of her feet and deliberately braked and started suddenly.

Isn't it just to make him feel more uncomfortable so that he can express his discomfort?

A strong sense of guilt and regret made her stand there in a daze, not knowing how to respond.

With the sound of the elevator "ding", they arrived at the ward floor. But Gu Yuchen was still leaning against the elevator wall weakly, panting lightly with messy and cautious movements, without any intention of moving.

"Here we are……"

"Can I help you out?"

"Gu Yuchen?"

"Let's go back to the ward first. I'll help you out..."

Ye Xingyao looked at him with heartache and anxiety. She just put her hand around his arm, but he pulled it away unexpectedly.

"Need not……"

"Why... Miss Ye can't bear it now?"

"You just... weren't like that..."

Gu Yuchen spoke weakly, he raised his eyes and glanced deeply at Ye Xingyao, then staggered towards the elevator door.

Ms. Ye...

He didn't call her Yaoyao, or even Ye Xingyao.

It’s Miss Ye.

Ye Xingyao stared at him, feeling as if the blood in her body had frozen, causing her to stop thinking instantly.

Her tears of heartache kept flowing, but she seemed not to be able to feel the tears and just let them flow without even wiping them.

Gu Yuchen felt more and more dizzy, but he didn't want to collapse in front of Ye Xingyao. He tried to hold on with his willpower, but he couldn't tell where he was feeling uncomfortable.

It felt like his head hurt, his stomach hurt, and his heart hurt. He felt so weak that he didn't even have the strength to lift his feet. The dizziness in front of his eyes made him feel like he would fall down in the next second. It felt like his whole body was so cold that he couldn't help shaking, and he suddenly felt hot, so hot that his internal organs seemed to be burning.

He just used the last bit of his will to hold on, but he felt extremely heartbroken.

It turns out that heartache is more severe than such severe physical pain.

He finally couldn't hold on any longer, and with his consciousness clear he felt himself falling straight forward.
