Chapter 33 Waiting for You to Fall Asleep
Gu Mian was so frightened that he stepped back again and again until his back hit the wall, with nowhere to go.
Li Tingshen walked up to her, looked at her embarrassed and nervous look, and couldn't help laughing, "Mrs. Li, what are you thinking about? Am I just hungry... or do you want me to be hungry somewhere else?"
"I didn't think so!" Gu Mian was a little embarrassed. "If you're hungry, can't you ask Mother Yang to make you something to eat?"
"Mother Yang has taken a leave of absence and will not be here for the next few days."
"Then order takeout."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Mian's stomach started to growl.
Although the food at the banquet was exquisite and delicious, she was still not full.
"It looks like Mrs. Li is hungry too." Li Tingshen joked.
Gu Mian hesitated for a moment, but finally went downstairs.
She wanted to save trouble and order takeout, but now that she was pregnant, she should eat healthier.
There are plenty of ingredients in the refrigerator, so I prepare two simple bowls of noodles.
Li Tingshen leaned against the cooking table, quietly watching the girl who was concentrating on cooking noodles.
She took off her makeup, but it didn't affect her looks at all. Her face was clean, bright and beautiful.
Gu Mian noticed his gaze and said as he turned around, "Go out and wait. It will be here soon."
"I'm here with you."
Gu Mian didn't insist, and after ten minutes, a simple bowl of tomato and egg noodles was ready.
She can't eat anything greasy now, so something light and appetizing like this is most suitable for her.
Gu Mian was eating noodles seriously when Pei Jianchuan called.
She thought something happened to Xiaobao, so she quickly picked up the phone and asked, "Mr. Pei, what happened?"
"No, Xiaobao hasn't woken up yet, but the doctor said everything is normal."
"That's good." Gu Mian breathed a sigh of relief. "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's about what Yin Luoxue said today."
Gu Mian paused while holding the chopsticks, and was silent for two seconds before speaking, "I'm sorry, Mr. Pei, I did hide my prison history from you, but I can assure you that I have never done anything to let you down."
"I know." Pei Jianchuan said, "When Yin Luoxue told this story in public today, I was not the first to stand up and speak for you because of Xiaobao's accident. I'm sorry."
Gu Mian said hurriedly, "Mr. Pei, please don't say that. You have no obligation to stand up and speak for me."
"Gu Mian, I don't know why you are in jail, but I want to tell you that I believe you are a good person. I hope you won't feel inferior because of this incident. Let the past be the past. You deserve the best future."
Gu Mian couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Pei, thank you."
"No matter what you've been through, we will always be friends. If you need my help, just ask and I will do my best to help you."
Gu Mian's eyes were filled with mist, "Mr. Pei, your kindness is the best help for me, thank you so much."
"Don't be sad, go to bed early, and see you tomorrow."
"Well, see you tomorrow."
Gu Mian hung up the phone and felt a sharp gaze. When he raised his eyes, he saw Li Tingshen's gloomy face.
She ignored him and continued eating noodles.
The two of them finished their noodles in their bowls almost at the same time. Gu Mian took the dishes into the kitchen to wash them, and then cleaned the kitchen before going upstairs.
Walking into the master bedroom, Li Tingshen, who had just finished taking a shower, walked out of the bathroom.
Gu Mian went to the bathroom to brush her teeth. When she came out, Li Tingshen was leaning against the wall beside the bathroom door, apparently waiting for her.
Gu Mian frowned, "What's the matter?"
"Wait till you fall asleep."
"Didn't we agree that you would sleep in the guest room?"
"Did I say I would always sleep in the guest room?" the man asked instead of answering.
Gu Mian could sense the low pressure on him and said without saying anything more, "You should go to bed early. I'll sleep in the guest room."
"Stop." Li Tingshen grabbed her wrist, "You and Pei Jianchuan have such a good relationship that you have to sleep in a separate room from me?"
Gu Mian turned to look at him, "How did he provoke you again?"
"I called my wife in the middle of the night and moved you to tears. Is that not considered provoking?"
Of course Gu Mian didn't turn on the speakerphone, but from what she said, he guessed what Pei Jianchuan had said to her.
His wife needs Pei Jianchuan to comfort her?
Gu Mian was a little speechless, "Mr. Pei just called me."
"As a wife, is it your job to chat with another man so enthusiastically in the middle of the night?"
Gu Mian smiled faintly, "So you hang out with Yin Luoxue all day long, spending more time with her than with me. Is that what a husband should do?"
"Gu Mian, you have made great progress. You have learned to use what you have learned." Li Ting looked at her seriously, "Listen carefully. From now on, you are not allowed to have any contact with Pei Jianchuan."
"Whether or not I want to contact him is my own business. You have no right to interfere."
Li Ting's eyes narrowed, "Say it again!"
"It's the same even if you say it ten times."
The anger in Li Tingshen's chest was completely ignited. He directly picked her up and walked to the bedside.
Gu Mian could sense the danger in the air, and panicked. He said hastily, "If you dare to touch me, I will call grandma right now."
Li Ting curled his lips deeply, and the smile stopped at the corner of his eyes.
He put her on the bed, pressed himself on her and pinned her under him.
"You can do it now. I don't mind letting grandma listen to the whole process."
Gu Mian was embarrassed and annoyed, "Li Ting Shen!"
"You can be willful occasionally, whether it's a girl's trait or a marriage ingredient, but that doesn't mean you can be willful all the time or even challenge my bottom line." Li Ting looked at the girl's blushing and angry face and said word by word, "Do you think you can be so free as Mrs. Li? Do you think that after marrying me, some things can be your own business, huh?"
Before Gu Mian could say anything, he kissed her on the lips.
He kissed her fiercely, and the more Gu Mian resisted, the harder he kissed her.
It feels like punishment, but also like revenge.
He had warned her long ago to stay away from Pei Jianchuan, but she turned a deaf ear to his words.
Especially when he thought about the tears in her eyes and the emotion on her face when she answered the phone just now, all because of Pei Jianchuan, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.
Li Tingshen tried twice, but seeing that Gu Mian was really resisting and crying for mercy, he deliberately controlled the duration of the second time.
Afterwards.
Gu Mian was drenched in sweat and curled up in the quilt for a long time.
Li Tingshen lit a cigarette, but was quickly stopped by the girl in a hoarse voice, "No smoking!"
As if possessed by some mysterious force, Li Tingshen put out the cigarette he had just lit into the ashtray, turned over and hugged her, "I'm not quitting smoking, don't cry, okay?"
