Chapter 54 I was wrong, I'll definitely do it next time.
None of the women expected Gu Suixing to appear here.
The two women were still hesitating about how to greet the Crown Prince when Gu Suixing looked at Lu Fengqing and said, "Let's go."
Lu Fengqing tapped the table lightly with her index finger. "We haven't paid the bill yet."
Gu Suixing didn't say anything, but called over a waiter and had Lu Fengqing sign the bill.
Gu Weiwei watched this scene with a somewhat subtle expression.
The two women snapped out of their daze and looked at Lu Fengqing awkwardly. "Miss Lu and Mr. Gu know each other?"
Lu Fengqing smiled but didn't reply. She picked up her bag, got up, and left.
The two women exchanged a glance.
"Lu Fengqing has... managed to get close to the Crown Prince?"
...
Gu Suixing walked too fast, and Lu Fengqing had to jog to catch up with him.
How did you know I was here?
Gu Suixing didn't answer, but opened the driver's side door and said, "Get in."
Lu Fengqing was stunned for two seconds, then asked him after getting into the car, "Don't you have to go to work?"
Gu Suixing hummed in agreement and started the car.
Lu Fengqing fastened her seatbelt and looked up, only to see an IV patch on the back of his right hand.
There was a little blood showing through the middle of the IV patch, indicating that the IV drip had just finished.
Lu Fengqing was taken aback. "Are you sick?"
What did the doctor say?
"So you didn't reply to my message earlier because you were getting a shot?"
Why didn't you say so sooner?
She should have said so earlier; instead of waiting here, she should have gone directly to him.
Thinking this, Lu Fengqing couldn't help but start lecturing him, her little mouth chattering away.
Gu Suixing didn't answer, but she didn't interrupt her either, focusing on driving.
He woke up with a fever in the morning and went to the hospital for an IV drip. He fell asleep while getting the drip and was only woken up by the nurse after she removed the needle. That's when he saw the message from Lu Fengqing.
Gu Suixing owns an apartment near the Gu family's residence, just a five-minute drive away, and has been living there for some time now.
After parking the car, Gu Suixing finally spoke, "Get out of the car."
Lu Fengqing stopped smacking her lips and fell silent.
Once inside, Lu Fengqing looked around without any hesitation, even checking out the bathroom.
"What are you looking at?" A slightly hoarse male voice came from behind.
Lu Fengqing: "...It's nothing."
You can't exactly say, "Let's check for any traces of a woman, like long strands of hair or something."
Gu Suixing: "Get out."
Lu Fengqing turned around, her fox-like eyes widening in disbelief. "You're actually kicking me out?"
Gu Suixing didn't want to play along with her act. "If you're not leaving, come in and help me up."
"Support what?" Lu Fengqing looked bewildered.
Gu Suixing unbuckled his belt expressionlessly.
"..."
Lu Fengqing immediately squeezed out to the side, making room for him in the bathroom, "I'm leaving."
Unable to outmaneuver her, she conceded defeat.
Lu Fengqing returned to the living room and caught a glimpse of a few pills in the trash can. After hesitating for two seconds, she turned around and knocked on the bathroom door.
Did the doctor prescribe any medication for you? Where is it?
This kid has never liked taking medicine since he was little. He'd rather get more injections than take medicine, but when you're sick, you can't just get better with injections.
Gu Suixing opened the door. "What do you want?"
Lu Fengqing blinked and lowered her hand. "Can't we look for it?"
Gu Suixing sneered and walked towards the room.
Lu Fengqing followed up, "I didn't say I wasn't going, it's just a few days later..."
Gu Suixing paused, but didn't turn around. "How many days were you gone?"
Lu Fengqing counted, "...Eighteen days."
Gu Suixing scoffed, "The bank's spending information is more sophisticated than yours; it knows to proactively contact people."
That heartless woman, she went there for eighteen days and didn't even send him a phone call or a single message.
The word "proactive" seems to be absent from her dictionary.
If it weren't for the fact that she still answers his calls and his bank card transaction notifications showing that she's having a great time, he would have thought she had disappeared.
He finally had enough fun and was willing to come back, but I still had to stand him up.
Gu Suixing reflected on whether he had spoiled her too much, to the point that she didn't take him seriously at all.
Lu Fengqing immediately understood why the man was angry.
It turns out he was upset because she hadn't contacted him for the past ten days.
Unless there's something really wrong, Lu Fengqing rarely takes the initiative to contact anyone, and she seldom initiates casual conversations with people.
She doesn't care about many people, but they are all doing well and don't need her to worry about them.
Without any attachments, one naturally wouldn't think of contacting them.
She's been living like this for the past few years; she never imagined anyone would be waiting for her call.
Lu Fengqing thought for a moment and took the initiative to admit her mistake: "I was wrong."
"I'll definitely call you next time I travel far away."
Gu Suixing neither agreed nor disagreed. In front of Lu Fengqing, she changed into her pajamas and went to bed.
"..."
Lu Fengqing went over and nudged him, "Where's the medicine?"
Gu Suixing turned around, her back to her.
“I know you’re not asleep, say something.”
"If you don't say anything, you'll get a spanking."
The person lying on the bed suddenly moved, reaching out to scoop her up onto the bed.
Lu Fengqing didn't struggle. She raised her hand to touch his forehead and asked, "How did you catch a cold in this hot weather?"
Gu Suixing didn't open her eyes, but answered her: "Take a cold shower."
Lu Fengqing: "?"
Gu Suixing remained silent.
Taking a cold shower in the summer won't necessarily cause a cold, but taking frequent cold showers every night for more than half a month, followed by air conditioning, will definitely lead to a cold.
As for why he takes frequent cold showers every night, she probably wouldn't want to hear the reason.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lu Fengqing didn't ask any further questions.
Sleepiness seems to be contagious; before long, she fell into a deep sleep.
I slept until the afternoon, and only woke up when the alarm rang.
Lu Fengqing turned off the alarm and lay on the bed with her eyes glazed over. After thinking for a while, she finally remembered what kind of alarm it was.
Oops--
She still had to pick Rui Rui up from school!
