Lightning flashed across the night sky.
The light in the stairwell flickered with the lightning outside the window.
Standing here, Gu Xiuyuan thought of that year.
He remembered the time when there was a power outage in Wangjiang Building and he went to the studio to look for her.
That time she twisted her ankle, and he carried her down from the 28th floor. At that time... she leaned obediently on his shoulder, and her sparkling eyes seemed to be filled with thousands of stars.
At that time, her heart and eyes were filled with him.
At that time, they said they would walk down the aisle like this for the rest of their lives...
But at this moment, those eyes no longer had the brightness they once had, but were more silent and calm, and the words coming out of his mouth were even more hurtful.
Ji Shuyu leaned against the wall. She wanted to push him away, but the strong dizziness made it impossible for her to even stand.
Looking at her serious expression, Gu Xiuyuan couldn't accept such a change, so he held her face and kissed her.
The kiss came so suddenly and forcefully that Ji Shuyu was pressed against the wall, leaving her no room to struggle.
Her shoulders were clasped tightly, and the kiss that penetrated deep into her throat was suffocating. The wound on her lips that had just scabbed over was broken because of this strong kiss.
The smell of blood spread between her lips and teeth. Ji Shuyu pushed him away several times but to no avail, so she simply gave up struggling.
Her "obedience" made Gu Xiuyuan forget about everything for a moment. He held her in his arms, and the strong kiss slowly became gentle and affectionate.
However, before he could sink into this deep affection, he had already noticed something unusual.
He opened his eyes, seeing the flickering light, and in those eyes that had obsessed him, there was so silence that there wasn't a trace of emotion.
Ji Shuyu gasped and then began to dry heave.
Gu Xiuyuan felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He knew she hadn't slept well all night, and that a bad sleep would cause retching and nausea, but in this situation, he couldn't help but wonder: Was she like this because of his touch?
Her stomach was churning, and Ji Shuyu's hands were on the wall, supporting her body.
"Get out of the way." She gritted her teeth.
"Wife..."
"Gu Xiuyuan, are you done yet?!" she roared.
The next second, his body went limp even further and he fell down.
"Wife!" Gu Xiuyuan exclaimed and caught her body.
Knowing that she was dizzy, shaking at this time would only make her feel worse.
Gu Xiuyuan quickly took off his coat and rushed to the steps, helped her sit down, and let her lean on his arms.
Ji Shuyu didn't dare to open her eyes, let alone move.
Unable to avoid his embrace, she closed her eyes tightly, just wanting the discomfort to pass quickly.
Gu Xiuyuan held her in his arms until the light came on outside the window. He then picked up the dizzy her and quickly walked to the elevator.
…
By this time, it was almost midnight.
A heavy rain was about to come, and the whole street was empty.
Gu Xiuyuan carried her into the car, then kissed her sweaty forehead and said silently: Wife, let's go home.
Bishuiwan
Old Mrs. Gu hadn't slept all night, and she was shocked when she saw her granddaughter-in-law being carried in.
"Xiuyuan?" The old lady was frightened. "What happened to Xiaoyu?"
"Grandma, don't worry. I just didn't get enough rest and feel a little dizzy." Gu Xiuyuan said, then looked at the aunt who came to greet him, "Where is the bedroom?"
“…”
Faced with this sudden intruder, the aunt was a little confused.
Gu Xiuyuan frowned, and his aunt immediately pointed towards the bedroom.
Old Mrs. Gu followed her grandson closely, watching him take his grandson's wife to the bedroom and taking off her coat and shoes.
"How did you...?"
The old lady was suspicious. From what she had seen from her granddaughter-in-law, she seemed to not want to have anything to do with him anymore, but... why did they come together?
"Xiaoyu and I came back from the studio. She didn't sleep well and feels a little uncomfortable."
Auntie was wandering at the door, neither going in nor going back.
Gu Xiuyuan didn't have time to pay attention to the aunt and quickly unbuttoned her collar.
"Mr. Gu." Seeing this, the aunt immediately stepped forward.
"Well, how can you be bothered with something like this? Let me do it!"
Old Mrs. Gu looked at it and motioned her grandson to move aside.
Now that Xiaoyu doesn't forgive him, it's not certain how far the two of them will go. It's really inappropriate for him to do this.
Gu Xiuyuan understood what his grandmother meant and felt a little aggrieved, but he didn't dare to refute.
After all, he had no explanation to his grandmother about what happened back then.
…
Outside the window, there were lightning and thunder.
Ji Shuyu groped for earplugs from under the pillow in a daze, plugged her ears, and murmured: Auntie, send Mr. Gu out.
Her voice was so weak that it was almost drowned out by the heavy rain outside the window.
Gu Xiuyuan couldn't hear clearly, but he was deeply hurt by the sight of her using earplugs.
Seeing the sweat on her forehead, he took a wet towel and gently wiped her face, then wiped her hands.
When he held her arm, she frowned and snorted.
pain.
Gu Xiuyuan felt a pang of pain in his heart. He grabbed her arm and gently massaged it for her.
Maybe it was really painful, her whole face was wrinkled.
Although the two babies are smaller than other children of the same age, how can they bear being held like that?
Was this how she got through all those times when the baby was sick?
These two babies almost took her life, and almost...his life.
After that, a series of things happened due to the baby's frailty.
Thinking of the hardships they had endured over the years, his heart was about to break.
Ji Shuyu was dazed and felt dizzy.
She felt like she was on a staircase. She walked down the stairs, but no matter how far she walked, she would reach the end. Then she felt more and more dizzy, as if everything around her was shaking. She instinctively grabbed for something, but could not catch anything.
Seeing this, Gu Xiuyuan grabbed her hand and then hugged the tense little woman into his arms.
With something in her hand, Ji Shuyu felt safe. Gradually, her tense body finally relaxed and she slept soundly.
"Go to sleep! Honey, I'm here, and I'll never leave you alone again."
The fatigue from the past few days made Ji Shuyu sleep very deeply. He also slept soundly in the arms of his beloved.
At daybreak, he heard the bedroom door creak open, but no footsteps were heard.
Gu Xiuyuan opened his eyes, propped himself up and met a pair of eyes filled with shock.
She was wearing a one-piece pajamas early in the morning, holding a somewhat old teddy bear in her arms.
Looking at the uncle who appeared in her mother's room, she covered her little mouth which was opened into an O shape!
Shhh——
Gu Xiuyuan put his fingers to his lips and then stood up gently.
I was a little afraid of him early on, but every time I saw him, I couldn't help but want to get closer.
no!
She shook her little head and said, "He was mean to his mother. Chenchen said he was a bad guy."
Seeing him approaching, she turned around and ran out. In her panic, she tripped over her left foot and fell forward.
Seeing this, Gu Xiuyuan stepped forward, caught his daughter, and brought her into his arms.
The moment her soft little body entered his arms, his heart seemed to be hit hard and his eyes instantly turned red.
This is his and Xiaoyu's daughter, their Zao Zao...
When they met face to face for the first time, she fell in front of him, but he didn't dare to help her up because of his injury, let alone hug her.
Tears fell as he hugged his daughter in his arms, and his tears fell on her little shoulders.
"Baby, I'm sorry, Dad..."
"Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
He wanted to kiss her and say, "I'm sorry, baby, Daddy is late." But the child's "uncle" brought him back to reality...
