Oops! The sickly Mr. Gu fainted again

Gu Yuchen's breathing was shallow, his brows were still slightly wrinkled, and his face looked even paler under the light of the bedroom.

Ye Xingyao placed the milk that An Ke brought beside the bed, and placed her warm little hand on Gu Yuchen's upper abdomen, waiting quietly for him to wake up.

Gu Yuchen was sleeping very lightly. He suddenly felt a warmth slowly spreading from his stomach, which seemed to relieve the pain in the area a little.

Ye Xingyao was watching his expression beside him. Seeing his eyelashes fluttering gently, his narrow eyes hanging under his eyebrows like a bright moon, and his jawline that looked like a fine sculpture, she couldn't help but start to appreciate his beauty.

And the way he frowned slightly made her heart beat faster.

Ye Xingyao stared at him for a long time, and suddenly realized that she seemed to be greedy for beauty. She cursed silently in her heart, "Why is a grown man so good-looking?"

But her eyes couldn't help but stay on his eyebrows.

Ye Xingyao felt that her hand on Gu Yuchen's stomach was a little numb. She just pulled it out, but unexpectedly, Gu Yuchen gently turned his head left and right a few times, and his brows furrowed even more tightly.

"Rub it...it hurts..." Gu Yuchen closed his eyes, but he murmured as if he was very dissatisfied with Ye Xingyao's hand pulling away.

Ye Xingyao's mind was still immersed in his beauty. She only heard what Gu Yuchen seemed to say, but she didn't hear clearly what he said. She leaned in front of Gu Yuchen, leaned close to his ear, and opened her lips slightly:

"what?"

Gu Yuchen opened his eyes slightly with shallow breathing. He was not fully awake yet and his eyes were vacant. After a few moments, he slowly glanced towards Ye Xingyao.

"Please massage me... please..."

Ye Xingyao was suddenly shocked when she heard it clearly.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Is your stomach aching again?"

Gu Yuchen seemed to sober up a little after being asked this question. He hesitated for a moment and did not answer, but his mind was still recalling the warmth of Ye Xingyao's palm just now.

He simply stopped hiding it and simply pulled Ye Xingyao's hand and put it into his clothes. Then he looked at Ye Xingyao with a weak and sleepy look in his eyes and repeated softly:

"Yaoyao...my stomach feels uncomfortable..."

"Give me a massage..."

Gu Yuchen knew that Ye Xingyao must be angry because he had been in a meeting for too long in the morning. He had no way to explain to Ye Xingyao, so he had to give up and admit that he was uncomfortable. He flickered his eyes twice, trying to look like he was bullied, with tears in his eyes, staring at Ye Xingyao with a wronged look.

"You know it's painful but you still work so hard. You were in shock yesterday due to the pain. Today you haven't eaten or drunk anything and have been working for so long. You don't want your stomach anymore, do you?" Ye Xingyao felt distressed but more angry when she heard that he actually admitted it.

"Um, uh..." Seeing that Ye Xingyao was really angry, Gu Yuchen immediately let out a low groan of pain.

Then he slowly turned his head to the other side, frowned slightly, and said in a wronged and light tone: "I'm already feeling uncomfortable... and you're still so mean to me..."

Ye Xingyao's heart softened instantly and her whole body went numb.

Helplessly and distressedly, she gently rubbed his stomach in circles, but she didn't dare to really rub it because she was afraid that his bleeding spots would bleed again.

But Gu Yuchen seemed not satisfied with the strength of her caress. He looked at Ye Xingyao again with watery eyes, and then his eyes tightened a little reluctantly.

"I want to rub it..." Gu Yuchen frowned and looked at him steadily, as if asking why he didn't listen to me.

Ye Xingyao was completely bewitched by his aggrieved look and coquettish tone, and she lost her temper instantly. She had no choice but to coax him in a soft and lingering tone:

"No, if you push too hard your gastric bleeding will recur..."

"Does it hurt? Why don't we go back to the hospital first?"

Gu Yuchen closed his eyes and shook his head. He was now in a slow and gradual pain. Although it was not as severe as when he had a stomach cramp or gastric bleeding, the pain that continued without a pause made him unbearable and upset. He even thought that it would be better to just have a stomach cramp, at least he would have a chance to breathe.

He closed his eyes and silently endured the endless pain, his brows unconsciously tightened a little.

Seeing that he suddenly lost his temper, Ye Xingyao stopped what she was doing and looked at his reaction with concern.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yuchen was a little reluctant to her sudden stop. He slowly placed his hand on her little hand that was attached to him, and then a magnetic and low voice came from his throat: "Continue."

Ye Xingyao's men did not move. She looked at Gu Yuchen nervously, and her heart gradually became uneasy.

"Gu Yuchen, Sister An Ke just brought some porridge, would you like to have some?"

"You can't not eat like this, your body will recover very slowly..."

"Besides, you haven't eaten for a long time. What if you develop anorexia if this continues?"

Gu Yuchen's eyebrows tightened unconsciously when he heard the word anorexia. He felt nauseous just thinking about eating.

Before Gu Yuchen had the time to refuse, Ye Xingyao had already brought over a bowl of pumpkin porridge.

"The temperature is just right. Can you eat less?" Ye Xingyao looked at him expectantly while holding the bowl.

Gu Yuchen faintly smelled the flavor of pumpkin porridge, and suddenly felt that the discomfort in his stomach became a little more serious, and the slowly coming pain seemed to be a little more intense.

"Let's... sign the contract first..."

"Have you just looked at the contract? Is there anything that needs to be changed?"

"Submit five designs within three months, is that a problem?"

Gu Yuchen suddenly asked the question seriously, but actually he wanted to use this topic to avoid asking him to eat.

Ye Xingyao didn't fall for this trick at all.

"Drink the porridge first, and then I'll sign the contract." There was a firm look of anger in her eyes.

"Yaoyao...I can't drink..." Gu Yuchen said in a cold tone after a long time.

After he said that, he looked up as if a little impatient, as if he was trying hard to restrain something.

Ye Xingyao suddenly felt distressed and began to wonder whether she should give him something to eat.

She suddenly thought of what Jin Ran had said before: that not eating for a long time would cause anorexia. After a few moments of hesitation, she reaffirmed her idea.

"Just a few bites, okay..." She said and scooped a spoonful and handed it to Gu Yuchen's mouth.

The smell of pumpkin porridge made Gu Yuchen's stomach churn a few times, and he clearly felt his stomach twitching a little. The sharp pain in an instant actually reduced his unbearable pain a little.

After a long while, he endured the pain in his stomach and finally opened his mouth to swallow it. Then, his hand hidden under the quilt secretly clenched the corner of the quilt, and his breathing unconsciously quickened a little.
