Xu Wan clenched his fists and told himself that it would pass if he just endured it, after all, he was the financial sponsor.

"Uncle Liu, ask the kitchen to cook some light porridge." Gu Huaizhi whispered to Butler Liu.

As he said this, he pressed back Xu Wan's restless hand.

Old Madam Gu was a little surprised, and there was a hint of relief in her eyes.

Xu Wan felt that Gu Huaizhi did it on purpose, and her eyes unconsciously revealed a fierce look when she looked at him, but when Gu Huaizhi looked at her, she showed a shy expression again.

"Actually I——" Yes!

Xu Wan wanted to struggle, but just as she opened her mouth, Madam Gu interrupted her.

"Huaizhi is right. We should pay attention to our diet."

Someone immediately removed the tableware in front of Xu Wan.

angry!

Gu Huaizhi picked up the cutlery slowly, his expression remained indifferent, as if he didn't care about anything, and was as calm as a chrysanthemum.

It was as if he had just stated the facts and was not targeting her.

But Xu Wan felt that he did it on purpose!

"Xiao Wan, when you get better, you can eat as much as you want. Huaizhi is also considering your health."

"The doctor didn't tell me to avoid certain foods..." She muttered unwillingly.

Gu Huaizhi: "You just didn't hear it."

Xu Wan: “…”

"Madam, the porridge is here."

A bowl of steaming pumpkin porridge was placed in front of Xu Wan. She looked at the king crab with regret and took a sip of the porridge.

"Huh?" She widened her eyes in surprise.

It tastes pretty good!

She lowered her head and drank the whole pot.

Madam Gu said distressedly, "You must be so hungry. Eat slowly. If it's not enough, ask the kitchen to cook more. Don't get burned!"

Gu Huaizhi looked at her like a starving ghost, and for a moment he wondered if he had abused her.

Xu Wan put down the bowl contentedly and touched his stomach.

The porridge cooked by rich people is different!

After dinner, he sat in the living room with Old Madam Gu.

"It's getting late. You two should stay here for one night." said Mrs. Gu.

"Grandma, let's do it next time. I have something else to take care of." Gu Huaizhi said lightly.

Xu Wan's heart was at ease before it even had time to get hung up.

"With so many things to do, can't the company survive without you?" Old Madam Gu said dissatisfiedly.

Gu Huaizhi was somewhat helpless, "Grandma..."

"Grandma, he's right. Business is more important." Xu Wan quickly agreed. She really didn't want to stay. "Besides, I've been a bit picky about my bed lately. I might not be able to sleep here..."

Gu Huaizhi looked at her, his eyebrows twitching slightly. It was obvious that grandma wanted the two of them to stay overnight, but she would actually push away such a great opportunity?

She said she...is familiar with her bed?

Looking at Xu Wan, Madam Gu's eyes suddenly became kind, "In that case, go back and have a good rest. When you get better, come and see me often."

"Yeah." Xu Wan nodded obediently and raised an eyebrow at Gu Huaizhi.

……

In the car.

Xu Wan tidied up her messy hair and began to check the jewelry in her bag with great interest.

"Are you familiar with the bed? A hospital bed?" the man's voice came in a lukewarm voice.

She stayed in the hospital for a week, and finally told her grandmother that she was bed-bound and couldn't stay overnight.

"Didn't you say that grandma didn't know I was in the hospital?" Xu Wan patted his chest, "I'm smart, right?"

She seemed really proud of herself, and in the past she would never have missed the opportunity to be in the same room with him.

Gu Huaizhi lowered his eyes, making it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry. The corners of his mouth lifted up imperceptibly, and it was unclear whether it was a mockery or something else.

After Xu Wan finished speaking, she lowered her head and continued to fiddle with her jewelry. She frowned and said, "Strange, one of the earrings is missing!"

She touched the seat beneath her to see if it had fallen accidentally, then looked down at her feet and fumbled around.

Gu Huaizhi frowned, holding the newspaper in his hand, watching her busying around, and silently moved a little further away from her.

When Xu Wan raised her eyes, she saw the suit fabric. She looked up and saw that he was still looking at the newspaper calmly, as if he was indifferent to her movements.

She raised her hand and tugged at the newspaper.

Gu Huaizhi put down the newspaper and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Have you seen my earrings?"

"No." He picked up the newspaper and continued reading.

"Think about it carefully, did it fall on you?"

Xu Wan held up the only remaining earring towards him. It was a golden iris with a tassel. It was exquisitely crafted and looked very valuable.

Her hair was stuck on him at that time, and she was struggling for a long time. Maybe it fell on him at that time.

Thinking of this, Xu Wan looked at him with eager eyes, wishing he could start searching immediately.

Gu Huaizhi naturally felt her urgency, "No."

"Really? Maybe you don't know? Let me see." Xu Wan smiled at him ingratiatingly.

"...No, don't touch me." He said coldly.

"How do you know if there is any if you don't take a look? It won't cost you a piece of meat if you take a look!" Xu Wan said persistently.

Gu Huaizhi frowned slightly, "Don't look for it, it's just an earring."

"It's just an earring?" Xu Wan raised her voice unconsciously, "Do you know how important this earring is to me? You know..."

"I don't know, just buy another pair."

Xu Wan's tears, which had just been squeezed out, had not yet fallen, and she immediately said, "It's easy for you to say, will you buy it for me?"

Gu Huaizhi rubbed his ears and said, "I'll buy it for you."

Upon hearing this, Xu Wan immediately held back her tears.

The car finally returned to silence. Gu Huaizhi stretched the newspaper in his hand and let out an inaudible sigh of relief.

The car stopped at the villa, and the servant guarding the door helped Xu Wan out of the car.

Looking at Gu Huaizhi who was still leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, Xu Wan still asked, "Aren't you going home?"

When he heard the word "go home", he opened his eyes and looked at her.

There was no calculation in her eyes, but they were bright and seemed to show some concern.

"I have something else to do." He said briefly.

"Then when will you come back?" She wanted to be free and easy, but she was afraid that when she was free and easy, she would be caught by him like this time!

Seeing her anxious expression, Gu Huaizhi's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm.

Haha, this woman still won’t give up!

Gu Huaizhi said slowly: "I won't be back in the short term. You won't die from falling from the second floor. Remember to jump from the top floor next time."

After he finished speaking, the car started and drove away into the distance.

Leaving behind Xu Wan, who was sitting in a wheelchair in a daze.

She shook her head. Gu Huaizhi had such a vicious mouth!

She looked toward the second-floor balcony and stroked her chin, seeming to be thinking about something.

Come to think of it, she had been in a car accident at that time. If she jumped from the second floor again, would she be able to return to reality?

But before that...Xu Wan looked down at the brand names on her body and the priceless jewelry in her bag.

Let’s experience the life of a rich woman first.

Jingherili is a well-known villa community. Those who can afford to buy villas here are either rich or noble. The garden of this community is known as the "Royal Garden of the 21st Century" and has all kinds of flowers.

Xu Wan sat in a wheelchair, feeling the evening breeze and the scent of flowers filling his nose.

Is this the air of rich people?

Wow…that’s great!
