Chapter 282 A Lifetime of Unlucky

Gu Xizhou uttered a muffled groan and his face suddenly turned pale.

Su Nanzhi struggled out of his arms and stood on the ground. She didn't bother to find out what had just happened and was anxious to unbutton Gu Xizhou's clothes.

"Is your wound open?"

"You shouldn't have hugged me just now."

Gu Xizhou grabbed her hand and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"I'm fine, I just got a stitch in the side."

Seeing her eyes redden, he suddenly moved closer, pretending to hold her waist, "Don't believe me? I can even hold you and do ten squats..."

"Gu Xizhou!" Su Nanzhi took a few steps back and looked at Gu Xizhou seriously. "Whether you get hurt or not has nothing to do with me."

She lowered her head, her eyes trembling slightly, "If you get hurt then, no one will take care of you."

Gu Xizhou's smile froze on his face. He silently withdrew his hand and nodded, "Well, I will remember that we are just partners."

"Don't do things that can easily cause misunderstandings in the future." Su Nanzhi said in a firm tone.

Gu Xizhou wanted to say something but stopped himself. However, after seeing Su Nanzhi's determined profile, he nodded slightly and turned to leave Su Nanzhi's room.

The moment the door closed, Su Nanzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had just lied...

Seeing that Gu Xizhou was not feeling well, she became anxious.

She turned her head to look at the door. When she saw the shadow standing there, her heart tightened and she stood up, but she stopped after taking a few steps.

never mind……

She cannot make impulsive decisions driven by momentary hormones.

Wait until Gu Xizhou's mission is over. If she still has feelings for him, then she can talk about it...

***

The door of the room was knocked again. Su Nanzhi had already taken a shower and changed her clothes in the space.

When she opened the door, she saw Gu Xizhou standing outside.

Gu Xizhou had changed into a white shirt.

"Are you ready?"

When he saw the floral dress on Su Nanzhi, a look of surprise flashed in Gu Xizhou's eyes.

It seemed like it was the first time he saw Su Nanzhi wearing a skirt.

Maybe Su Nanzhi wasn't that resistant to him.

Su Nanzhi pulled the hem of her skirt uncomfortably, her eyes sweeping over Gu Xizhou's neat white shirt and dark trousers.

Although most gay men in this era dress like this, Gu Xizhou is tall and has a good figure, so his dress looks particularly formal.

She quickly lowered her head to hide the emotions surging in her eyes.

"Yeah." She responded briefly, hopping on one foot towards the door. Just as she was about to step over the threshold, a warm hand firmly grasped her wrist.

"Is your foot really okay?" Gu Xizhou frowned, his eyes fixed on her red and swollen ankle, which was even more swollen than before. "Let's go register another day."

Su Nanzhi subconsciously moved her red and swollen feet. "It's okay. Go register for marriage as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble."

As she said this, she tried to break free from Gu Xizhou's outstretched hand and limped out of the yard.

The next second, she was suddenly picked up by Gu Xizhou.

"Gu...Linsen, what are you doing?"

Su Nanzhi wanted to struggle violently but was afraid of hurting Gu Xizhou, so she could only watch Gu Xizhou put her on a bicycle.

"Where did you get this bicycle?"

Su Nanzhi was so scared that she grabbed the back seat of the 28-inch bicycle with both hands, fearing that the bicycle would overturn if she was not careful.

Fortunately, today's bicycles all have U-shaped tripods, so they won't fall over as long as people don't move around.

"I borrowed it from someone."

Gu Xizhou held the handlebars with one hand and kicked the U-shaped footrest away with his left foot.

Su Nanzhi, who was sitting on the bike, didn't feel anything yet, but he had already stepped onto the bike and pedaled a long way.

Although Zhoushan County has good conditions, except for the main roads, most of the small roads are a bit bumpy.

Su Nanzhi grabbed the iron frame of the back seat with both hands, her body tense, trying to avoid touching Gu Xizhou's back.

It's just the bumpy roads that make biking like a roller coaster.

When the bicycle passed through a ravine, Su Nanzhi was thrown into the air.

"Ah!" she exclaimed and instinctively grabbed the hem of the person in front of her.

The shirt, which was warm from human body temperature, startled Su Nanzhi so much that she let go immediately. As a result, the next pit caused her to crash directly into Gu Xizhou's back again.

A faint smell of cedar mixed with blood came to Su Nanzhi's nose. He frowned and was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of the scene around him out of the corner of his eye.

"Aren't we going to the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

Although Su Nanzhi had just returned to Zhoushan County not long ago, she immediately became familiar with some of the main places in Zhoushan County after her return, so she could tell at a glance that this was not the way to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

"Hold on tight." Gu Xizhou's low voice came from the front.

He did not answer Su Nanzhi's words, but suddenly took off the handle with one hand and pulled Su Nanzhi's hands that were hanging on both sides to his waist.

Su Nanzhi held Gu Xizhou's waist, feeling the scorching temperature with her fingertips. Every bump allowed her palm to outline the outline of his abdominal muscles more clearly.

Gu Xizhou held the front of the car with one hand, his eyes blazing with fire. Every time the road bumped, his throat rolled, but he kept his left hand steady on the handlebars and drove straight on the bumpy road.

"We're here." The bicycle stopped in front of Zhoushan County Hospital. Gu Xizhou supported himself on one foot and said, "Let's see if your foot is okay first."

Before Su Nanzhi could react, Gu Xizhou used his waist to hold the bicycle still, and his left hand had already lifted her down from the back seat.

The smell of blood that was just faintly visible at the tip of her nose became stronger at this moment. Su Nanzhi glanced at Gu Xizhou's right hand, opened her mouth, but said nothing in the end.

There weren't many people in the hospital and I got an appointment quickly.

"Bear with it." The doctor had a warm smile on his face, but he didn't slow down his massage of Su Nanzhi at all. "If the blood clots aren't massaged out, you'll be so swollen tomorrow that you won't even be able to wear shoes."

He looked up at Gu Xizhou who was standing beside him and said, "Young man, don't let your wife move around. If she can't even bear this little hardship, how can she have children in the future?"

Gu Xizhou's ears turned red at a visible speed. Without hesitation, he took a step forward and hugged Su Nanzhi's slightly trembling shoulders. "If it hurts... pinch me."

Although Su Nanzhi had given birth to a child in her previous life, her body after being washed by the spiritual spring was more delicate than in her previous life. She grabbed Gu Xizhou's wrist without any hesitation.

"You youngsters, you really haven't experienced hardship." The doctor rubbed his arm and shook his head. He glanced at Gu Xizhou's arm and said, "I'll change the bandage for you later."

As soon as he finished speaking, two voices were heard in unison.

"no."

"Need not."

The doctor pushed up the paint-chipped frames of his glasses and glanced back and forth between the two of them.

"You, a woman, have to be considerate of your man." The doctor pressed hard on Su Nanzhi's ankle and said in a reproachful tone, "Whoever breaks a hand in the future will be sent to the hospital by you?"

The doctor withdrew his hand and said to Gu Xizhou beside him, "As for you, if you make a mistake, you must explain it clearly to your partner and don't let him/her down."

"Doctor, being heartbroken about a man will bring you bad luck for the rest of your life." Su Nanzhi changed the subject, seemingly insincerely. "It's just a broken hand, it's not like it will never heal. You're exaggerating."

Although the doctor was kind-hearted, he was not the kind of person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs. After hearing Su Nanzhi's words, he looked at Gu Xizhou with sympathy, then lowered his head and quickly wrote the prescription.

"Wait and pay to get the medicine."
