Chapter 85 The Pure-hearted President

Gu Shichen walked to Ye Yi's room and was a little confused about whether to knock on the door.

After hesitating for a while, he finally knocked on the door. After a long while, Ye Yi slowly opened the door.

The moment he saw Ye Yi, Gu Shichen was a little scared. Ye Yi's face turned pale and she bent over, as if she could faint at any time.

Gu Shichen asked with some concern, "Why do you look so bad? Do you need to find a doctor for you?"

Ye Yi shook her head, "No, I've already taken medicine. I'll be fine after a good sleep."

Gu Shichen glanced at Ye Yi's hand that had been covering her stomach, and roughly guessed what was going on.

"Then you should have a good rest first."

After leaving, Gu Shichen did not go back to his room to sleep directly but went to the kitchen.

After a while, he cooked a bowl of brown sugar water. Thinking that Ye Yi only ate a little during the meal, he specially added an egg into it, and also added some red dates and wolfberries. He learned this from the novel, and he didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

Gu Shichen put the brown sugar water in a bowl, and then knocked on Ye Yi's door again with the brown sugar water.

Ye Yi was annoyed to death when she heard the knock on the door again. She was already uncomfortable, and someone came to disturb her rest in the middle of the night.

Ye Yi opened the door and said unhappily, "What are you doing! Can't you let people sleep in the middle of the night?"

Gu Shichen was embarrassed for a moment while holding the brown sugar water.

But Ye Yi was in terrible pain in her stomach and didn't want to say anything more. She was about to close the door.

Gu Shichen stopped Ye Yi from closing the door and handed the brown sugar water in his hand to Ye Yi.

"This is the brown sugar water I asked Aunt Liu to make for you. Drink it before you go to sleep."

Gu Shichen looked at Ye Yi and saw that she couldn't even straighten her back. He continued to ask, "Do you need me to bring it to you?"

Ye Yi didn't refuse. She really didn't have any strength now.

Gu Shichen put the brown sugar water on the bedside table.

"Just ask Aunt Liu to clean up the bowl tomorrow morning. Drink it and go to bed early."

Ye Yi endured the pain and whispered, "Thank you."

Gu Shichen hummed and walked out directly, and closed the door for Ye Yi.

Ye Yi fell asleep right after drinking the brown sugar water.

The next morning, Ye Yi hadn't gotten up yet at dinner time, and Gu Shichen didn't ask the nanny to leave her breakfast and didn't wake her up.

Seeing that Ye Yi didn't show up at the table, Gu Ce asked worriedly, "Dad, what happened to Mom?"

"She's just too tired. Just go to school and don't worry."

Hearing what Gu Shichen said, Gu Ce was relieved and went to school.

When Ye Yi got up, Gu Shichen had already gone to work.

After seeing the bowl in Ye Yi's room, Aunt Liu smiled and said to Ye Yi, "Young Master actually made brown sugar water for Madam himself. Madam is so lucky."

Ye Yi was a little confused, "Didn't you, Aunt Liu, make this brown sugar water?"

Aunt Liu smiled, "Young Master is probably embarrassed to tell you that he made it himself. When I saw him in the kitchen last night, I thought he was hungry. I wanted to go into the kitchen but he didn't want me to. This morning he even asked me to save some food for you."

Ye Yi was staring at the empty bowl. It turned out that he made the brown sugar water himself last night.

Mother Liu continued to speak, "Although the young master is a little cold on weekdays, he is very attentive to the people he cares about. But the young master is really embarrassed to admit that he did it himself."

Ye Yi suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in her heart.

After sleeping for a night, Ye Yi's stomach didn't hurt as much as yesterday, but she still didn't go to the crew today.

But even if she didn't go to the crew, there were still many things she needed to deal with. She sat in front of the computer wrapped in a blanket all afternoon.

After school, Gu Ce put down his schoolbag and rushed to Ye Yi immediately. He took out a lollipop from his pocket and handed it to Ye Yi.

"Mom, here's some candy for you. Eating a piece of candy when you're sick won't make you feel so bad."

Ye Yi wanted to give Gu Ce a big kiss, but thinking of her character, she could only pretend to be cool and said, "Only children like to eat candy."

But having said that, she still took the candy.

Gu Ce was used to this. His mother was just as stubborn as his father.

Gu Ce stayed with Ye Yi for a long time until Gu Shichen got off work, and then he went back to his room to do his homework.

Gu Shichen glanced at Ye Yi's complexion and found that it was not as bad as yesterday, so he felt a little relieved.

"Are you feeling better?"

Ye Yi nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you for personally cooking the brown sugar water for me yesterday."

Ye Yi deliberately emphasized the word "personally".

Gu Shichen's ears turned red, and he said a little embarrassedly: "It's just a coincidence."

Ye Yi looked at him with a smile, without saying anything, but her heart was full of activity.

[Tsk tsk tsk, he's embarrassed to admit that he cooked it himself. I didn't expect that the president of the Gu Group would be so innocent.]

Gu Shichen's ears turned even redder.

Finally, he made an excuse to go to the study.

Ye Yi laughed at the way Gu Shichen fled.

After Gu Shichen returned to the study, he was ready to handle official business, but he didn't read a single word.

In the end, he simply stopped reading. His mind was full of what Gu Ce said at the time.

Did he really like Ye Yi?

In fact, he didn't know himself. He was very disgusted with Ye Yi before.

But ever since Ye Yi changed, he felt that his opinion of Ye Yi seemed to have gradually changed.

Although she had always said in her heart that she wanted to retire, when he handed over a company to her, she didn't say anything on the surface, but she had been planning for the future of the company. Although she looked lazy, she was very serious when doing things. She

was really a completely different person from the previous Ye Yi. Although Gu Shichen didn't know why he had changed so much, he seemed to like the current Ye Yi a little bit.

But thinking that the time of three months was getting closer and closer, Gu Shichen couldn't help but frowned again. He was now very sure that Ye Yi had no feelings for him. He has always been swift and decisive in handling company matters, but he feels helpless when it comes to emotional matters.

When he was in the army, he had no contact with women at all. After retiring, he took over the company directly and was always busy with work. He never considered getting married. Even when he married Ye Yi, it was just to maintain their old friendship.

Now, for the first time, he feels like he likes someone a little bit and he doesn't know what to do.

When it was time to eat, Gu Shichen was still thinking about this matter and was absent-minded while eating. Ye Yi even suspected that he was angry because she had just teased him.

Gu Ce saw that his father looked unhappy and thought that the two had quarreled, so he didn't say anything. The meal was very quiet, and after the meal the three of them returned to their own rooms.
