Chapter 177 Calm down, Xiaxia, what can you do?
Looking at Gu Mingxia, who seemed completely at a loss, Xiao Yan smiled and reached out to place his large hand over her slender small hand.
"Xiaxia, don't you feel terrible right now? The you now is very different from the you I first met. This isn't the real you, Your Majesty, you shouldn't be like this."
Yes, she's become somewhat unlike herself lately. Gu Mingxia looked into Shan Xiaoyan's eyes, and in them, she saw a panicked, anxious version of herself—a far cry from her usual strong and aloof queen-like image.
She hadn't even realized when the old man and the Gu family had come to occupy such an important place in her heart. Gu Mingxia frowned slightly; this wasn't a good sign. She didn't want to become a completely unfamiliar version of herself.
"Little Swallow, I seem to have completely forgotten my limits. I... don't like being out of control like this."
Gu Mingxia looked down at the pristine white tabletop. She was always the one in control, and now, suddenly having her emotions manipulated made her very unhappy.
"Xiaxia, you're too nervous. Ever since you came back from South Africa, you've become anxious and your nerves are on edge."
Xiao Yan spoke very seriously, saying that Xia Xia would inevitably get into trouble sooner or later, and he couldn't allow anything to happen to her.
"I... Xiao Yan'er, I didn't want to either, but every night when I go to sleep, I always hear a huge explosion in my ears, and all I see is a burst of fire and endless darkness."
In fact, Gu Mingxia had known she was in trouble for a long time, but how could she, who was always so assertive, tell others about such a thing? She didn't even mention it to her closest friend, Xiao Yan.
"Silly girl, why didn't you tell me? You know, I'm your fiancé. You should have told me everything, and we could have shared the burden together, right?"
Seeing the usually strong-willed Gu Mingxia looking so haggard and helpless, Xiao Yan secretly hated himself for being so careless lately, failing to notice that Xiaxia was having psychological problems.
Xiao Yan's eyes were filled with heartache. He held Gu Mingxia's hand. When did her hand become so thin? It even felt rough to the touch. Had he, as her fiancé, been too negligent?
“You just woke up from your coma not long ago, and I don’t want you to worry too much.”
Gu Mingxia pulled her hand away from Xiao Yan's, picked up the glass of water in front of her, took a big gulp, and let out a long sigh to suppress the irritation in her heart.
"Silly girl. Let's not talk about this anymore, let's eat something."
He secretly resolved in his heart that he must help Xiaxia recover her mental health and absolutely could not allow her condition to deteriorate any further, otherwise Xiaxia would be harmed by his impulsiveness sooner or later.
"good."
Gu Mingxia looked at the seafood feast on the table and smiled slightly at Xiao Yan. However, her gaze unconsciously drifted to the seat where Qin Yueru was sitting. She saw that the young and handsome man was feeding her steak. On impulse, Gu Mingxia was about to get up when Xiao Yan took her hand and looked at her tenderly.
"Xiaxia, stop looking at those boring things and eat something. The seafood won't taste good if it gets cold."
"I……"
"It's alright. You should trust Uncle Gu. He's your father. Even if he doesn't help you, he would never harm you."
Gu Mingxia's heart gradually calmed down, and only after seeing that her expression had returned to normal did Xiao Yan lower his head and kiss her on the cheek.
"Let's eat together, then go home, take a nice hot bath, and get some sleep, and everything will be fine."
Gu Mingxia nodded and began to eat. Xiao Yan watched her tenderly the whole time. Although Gu Mingxia had become more like a little woman and less assertive and aloof, he liked Xiaxia who relied on him like a little woman. However, this kind of Xiaxia was not a healthy one. Even if he liked her a lot, he still wanted a Xiaxia who was completely healthy, both physically and mentally.
Sitting in the car, Gu Mingxia leaned back in her seat and rubbed her temples wearily. Recently, not only had her mood become terrible, but she also felt particularly tired.
"If you're tired, take a nap. I'll wake you up when we get home."
"good."
Xiao Yan turned on the car's music system and selected some light music that would help him sleep. After he made his selection, he turned to look at Gu Mingxia and immediately realized that he had obviously been overthinking things. Even without the light music, Gu Mingxia was already asleep with her breathing even.
"Sleep peacefully, I'll take you home."
He murmured something softly, kissed Gu Mingxia lightly on the forehead, and started the car, driving slowly and steadily.
For so long, he had no idea that Xia Xia Wanwan had been having trouble sleeping. If he had known earlier, with his company, she might have already recovered her health.
At this moment, he was filled with guilt. As her fiancé, he hadn't even noticed that something was wrong with her. Xiao Yan hated himself.
Turning his head to look at Gu Mingxia, who was sleeping peacefully, Xiao Yan reached out and brushed the long hair covering her face to the side. She had lost a lot of weight recently, and he hadn't even noticed such an obvious change. It was really infuriating.
The car arrived at the villa quickly. Gu Mingxia was still fast asleep. Xiao Yan did not get out of the car, but just sat there quietly watching her.
Twenty years have passed, and his life has only recognized this one woman. No matter what happened in the past or what will happen in the future, Xiao Yan vowed that for the rest of his life, his body and his heart will always belong to Gu Mingxia alone.
He frowned slightly, but quickly regained his composure. As long as he could be with Xia Xia, everything else was secondary. In this world, Xia Xia was the only person he truly loved. Xiao Yan felt that even if Gu Mingxia wanted him to die, he would give his life for her without batting an eye.
As long as she wants it, and as long as he has it, he will do everything in his power to fulfill her wish. From the age of thirteen to thirty-three, Xiao Yan's heart has never been as calm as it is now.
"I fell asleep, why didn't you wake me?"
As soon as Gu Mingxia opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Yan staring at her affectionately, and immediately lowered her head a little shyly.
Even though they've known each other for so many years, Gu Mingxia still feels a little embarrassed in front of Xiao Yan, who is so charming.
"You're sleeping so soundly, I don't want to wake you up."
"Then let's get off the bus."
The two got out of the car together and entered the living room, which was empty. Since Xiao Yan woke up, Liu Yan had moved to the building where Zheng Liu and the others lived, claiming that she didn't want to disturb their time together.
Sitting on the sofa, Gu Mingxia sighed deeply and habitually reached to pinch her brow, only to have her hand grasped by Xiao Yan.
"Xiaxia, tell me what's bothering you. Don't keep pinching your brow, or you'll get wrinkles."
Gu Mingxia looked at Xiao Yan, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating. Xiao Yan, however, was not in a hurry and simply stared at her quietly. After more than ten minutes, Gu Mingxia finally made up her mind, looked up at the calm Xiao Yan with a serious expression.
"Little Swallow, you must promise me that you won't get agitated after listening to what I have to say."
"good."
Having received Xiao Yan's answer, Gu Mingxia understood the situation. She coughed a few times but hadn't even spoken yet when her face turned red.
"Actually, it's not a particularly big deal. It's just that you had some side effects from an overdose of BH19. Misha helped me develop a drug to treat the side effects. After using the drug, the side effects can be eliminated, but you may lose your fertility."
Xiao Yan looked at Gu Mingxia in surprise, but before he could speak, Gu Mingxia quickly grabbed Xiao Yan's arm.
"But don't worry, Misha has already frozen your vagina before you took the medication, so we can still have our own children in the future."
"What did you say?"
"We can still have our own children in the future!"
"The previous sentence!"
Xiao Yan's expression was clearly not good. Gu Mingxia raised an eyebrow and thought for a moment, then quickly covered her mouth and stared blankly at Xiao Yan.
"What do you think happened to Misha?"
"Um... Little Swallow, Misha is a doctor, she's a professional, so don't worry about it! Besides, isn't your focus a little off?"
"So where do you think I should focus my attention?"
Seeing Xiao Yan's displeased gaze, Gu Mingxia carefully moved her body little by little, trying to get away from his control. When Xiao Yan didn't see her, she slowly got up and walked towards the stairwell.
"When a man hears that he is infertile, shouldn't he be concerned about how to have a child? Why is your focus on who will provide your sperm?!"
"Gu Mingxia!"
Xiao Yan roared, and Gu Mingxia shrank her shoulders. Just as she was about to run upstairs, Xiao Yan picked her up by the waist.
"Gu Mingxia, do you think you're exceptionally capable? Hmm?"
Gu Mingxia, clutching Xiao Yan's shirt, raised an eyebrow and smiled proudly when she heard his question.
"Of course, I've always been very capable!"
"Oh? Is she really that capable?"
Seeing Xiao Yan's serious expression, Gu Mingxia didn't know what he wanted to do. She frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded at him with great certainty.
"capable!"
"You said it yourself, and now I'm going to prove to myself whether you're really capable!"
Xiao Yan carried Gu Mingxia and walked quickly towards his room. Only then did Gu Mingxia understand what he meant by "capable". Her face turned red, and she kept pounding Xiao Yan's chest with her two little fists.
"You pervert, you're taking advantage of me again!"
"A bastard wouldn't take advantage of his own wife!"
Once inside the room, Xiao Yan tossed Gu Mingxia onto the large bed. Before she could react, Xiao Yan pounced on her, pinning her hands down with his large hands.
"Your Majesty, are you really capable of doing this?"
"cannot!"
"Whether it's possible or not, I'll have to test it myself first!"
"Bastard, son of a bitch, pervert, big hooligan!"
"Hmm, I like all those names. Now let this bastard show you what a real pervert is, what a real scoundrel and hooligan is!"
