The room was pitch black, without a single ray of light, but for someone with superb martial arts skills who could see in the dark, it was no problem at all.
Gu Beiyi gently approached the bedside and looked at Rong Sheng lying sweetly on the bed, sleeping soundly and peacefully, just like a lazy cat.
"Sheng Sheng..." Gu Beiyi murmured softly, each word filled with deep affection. The emotions in his dark eyes were undisguised, surging forth. He slowly raised his large, well-defined hand, wanting to touch the woman he had cherished in his heart for so many years.
But his hand suddenly stopped above Rong Sheng's cheek. His handsome face was filled with pain and regret, and he was trembling as if he had seen something terrible.
Crystal-clear tears slid from his dark, affectionate eyes, rolling down his cheeks and landing on his clothes, spreading out like plum blossoms.
System: "..." What exactly is going on with Gu Beiyi? Why can't he understand?
Gu Beiyi withdrew his hand, silently clutching his chest. His handsome face slowly moved closer to Rong Sheng, but he stopped just three centimeters from her cheek: "Sheng Sheng... I love you... Fortunately, God was willing to give me a chance to start all over again..."
I met you again, fell in love with you again, walked the path we walked in our past life again, and rewrote our ending... But it was no use. Ten whole years after being reborn, I still haven't found the person who killed you in my past life. I don't know where he's hiding!
Sheng Sheng, I'm so sorry!!!
System: "..." I understand it less and less. Even the words he says are full of mystery. Oh my, why is human thought so complicated?
After calming himself down, Gu Beiyi slowly took off his coat and shoes, climbed onto Rong Sheng's bed, and snuggled into her blankets. He held Rong Sheng in his arms like iron hoops, as if only in this way could the fear and dread in his heart be driven away.
This was the first time, the first time since his rebirth, that he had unabashedly pulled Rong Sheng into his arms, feeling the warmth emanating from her body.
A wicked smile played on his lips as he kissed the soft, black hair, then closed his eyes and drifted into a deep sleep.
Before dawn the next day, Gu Beiyi opened his eyes. The softness in his arms made him feel wonderful. He really didn't want to let go of Rong Sheng, but Rong Sheng had to go to Huimin Medical Clinic to treat patients that day, so he couldn't be willful. After struggling for a while, he gently let go of Rong Sheng and covered her with a blanket.
After getting up and dressing, Gu Beiyi did not leave immediately. Instead, he sat quietly on the edge of the bed, staring intently at Rong Sheng, who was sleeping soundly in the darkness.
His large, well-defined hand slowly descended, caressing Rong Sheng's delicate and lovely face, feeling the warmth and tenderness emanating from her. He then leaned down and lightly kissed the corner of Rong Sheng's lips.
If it weren't for the late hour, which might prevent Rong Sheng from having dinner, he would definitely have gone even further.
But it doesn't matter. Sooner or later, Rong Sheng will belong to him inside and out.
Gu Beiyi reluctantly left Rong Sheng's room and returned to his courtyard. He went straight to the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous breakfast for Rong Sheng.
For example: egg pancakes, steamed buns, stir-fried lettuce strips, millet porridge, sesame flatbread...
After Gu Beiyi finished preparing breakfast, he quickly took a shower, changed his clothes, and then took the food box to Rong Sheng's house.
It was just dawn, and the streets were deserted and quiet.
When Gu Beiyi arrived at Rong Sheng's house, Rong Sheng had not yet gotten up, but Rong Mu had already gotten up.
When Gu Beiyi saw Rong Mu getting up to boil water and prepare a meal, he sneered. Since he had taken over Rong Sheng's three meals a day, he would not let Rong Mu interfere, so he had already made arrangements.
Rong Mu had just boiled the water and was about to wash his face and rinse his mouth when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Rong Mu immediately put down the washcloth in his hand and quickly went to open the door.
"Shopkeeper? What brings you here?"
The visitor was the manager of Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
The shopkeeper said, "Young Master Rong Mu, you previously said you wanted to learn how to do business and make money from our master, so our master arranged for you to go to see him at this time every morning and learn from him! During the day, you'll work and learn how to deal with customers, and in the early morning and evening, you can learn how to do business from him! This way, you can hand over Xiaoxiang Pavilion to Young Master Rong Mu as quickly as possible!"
Rong Mu was overjoyed, but said, "Manager, could you please wait a little longer? I haven't cooked for my sister yet!" He would at least cook for Sheng Bao before going.
The shopkeeper shook his head and refused: "Young master won't wait for you for long. If you insist on cooking and going over there, then I'm afraid he won't teach you!"
The opportunity was rare, and Rong Mu really didn't want to miss it. However, he had to take good care of Sheng Bao and not let her go hungry. In addition, Sheng Bao was going to Huimin Medical Clinic to treat patients today. How could he, as her older brother, not even make her breakfast?
But Su Wenxian taught him personally. If he missed that opportunity, he didn't know how many times he would have to stumble before he could succeed.
The innkeeper said, "If Young Master Rong Mu is really worried, you can tell your sister and let her go out to eat by herself."
Rong Mu hesitated, but for the sake of his dream of making money through business, he gritted his teeth and said, "Shopkeeper, please wait a moment. I'll go tell my sister, and then I'll go with you!"
The shopkeeper nodded in agreement.
Rong Mu arrived at Rong Sheng's room and knocked on the door.
Rong Sheng was sleeping very soundly and did not hear Rong Mu knocking at first. Rong Mu did not want Su Wenxian to wait too long, so he simply pushed the door open, came to Rong Sheng's bedside, and woke Rong Sheng up: "Third Brother? It's not even dawn yet, is there something you need?"
Rong Mu said guiltily, "Shengbao, your third brother is going to Young Master Su's house to learn how to do business. So I won't be able to make you breakfast. Go out and buy something to eat later! Also, I reckon I'll be back very late tonight, so Shengbao should go to bed early and not wait for your third brother, okay? When your third brother isn't around, you must take good care of yourself and not make your third brother worry!"
Rong Sheng, who was in a daze, was immediately awakened after hearing Rong Mu's words.
At this moment, he finally understood why Gu Beiyi said that he was in charge of Rong Mu's three meals a day. It turned out that he had already arranged everything perfectly for Rong Mu!
"Third Brother, don't worry about learning business skills. Once you've learned them and won't be taken advantage of, you won't have to work so hard!" Rong Sheng encouraged Rong Mu, telling him to put his studies aside. She assured him that she would take good care of herself and wouldn't let them worry. Besides, Huimin Medical Clinic was very close by, so nothing would happen.
Seeing Rong Sheng say this, Rong Mu felt relieved and left with the shopkeeper, feeling guilty.
As soon as Rong Mu left, Rong Sheng's drowsiness vanished without a trace, so he got up to wash up.
After he finished washing up, he saw Gu Beiyi sitting at the large table in the main room, which was covered with hot breakfast that looked very delicious.
Seeing Rong Sheng's adorable dazed expression, Gu Beiyi smiled and said, "Sheng Sheng, come and eat! This is something I prepared especially for you!"
