Chapter 142 She met a man who loved her, and whom she loved in return.
Gu Yuheng tried his best to ignore his sensory reactions.
He stared at the wall and asked in a low voice, "Is it cold?"
Su Niannian shook her head, and then, belatedly, realized that he couldn't see it.
"...Not cold."
Gu Yuheng gave a soft "hmm," then squeezed out a little more green ointment onto his fingertip and gently spread it out.
When vision is obstructed, the senses become more acute.
His fingertips, slightly calloused and rough, gently brushed against Su Niannian's porcelain-white and delicate skin. The delicate touch still lingered on his fingertips when he touched the softness of her chest. The sudden softness made every inch of his senses burn.
His Adam's apple slid uncontrollably.
Gu Yuheng simply closed his eyes and cursed himself inwardly. What kind of time is this to still be thinking about that? He was truly a beast.
He continued applying the medicine while reciting the Heart-Cleansing Mantra in his mind.
After the medicine was applied, his forehead was covered with a fine layer of sweat.
"Alright." Gu Yuheng took a deep breath, held Su Niannian's collar with both hands, and helped her button up her clothes.
“”
The two are legally married.
Su Niannian felt like it was an affair.
She glanced at the petrified man, feeling a pang of pity for him, yet also worried that he might do something rash, and stammered, "The doctor said it's okay after three months... Just be careful, everything will be alright."
Gu Yuheng naturally understood her implication and refused without thinking, "No, I can just endure it."
Su Niannian felt he was in a bad mood: "Won't you break down if you keep holding back like this...?"
Since their first time together, Gu Yuheng has never done that again.
Su Niannian was not an ignorant girl; she always knew how to handle the sound of water from the bathroom, which sounded like a flood.
I know Gu Yuheng must have been enduring a lot of hardship.
Gu Yuheng chuckled softly, turned his head to the side, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his eye.
"It won't break. Keep it for now, and make it up to me after Niannian gives birth."
After saying that, he stood up and walked straight into the bathroom.
Hearing the sound of water coming from inside, Su Niannian regretted her earlier act of kindness.
She had a premonition that the unscrupulous businessman Gu would devour her completely, leaving not even bones behind.

Shen Wanxi had just finished a night shift at the hospital and returned home.
The doorbell rang.
She knew it was the cleaning lady coming to clean, so she opened the door and let her in.
“Miss Chen, I have taken care of the matter you asked me to do last time.”
The cleaning lady was a woman in her fifties, thin and with an aged face, wearing an ordinary floral t-shirt. She spoke as soon as she entered the room.
Shen Wanxi glanced at her, walked to the sofa and sat down: "Did Li Xiumei really buy it?"
"Yes, I had my son pretend to be a chicken seller and offer her a price below market value. She bought it without even thinking about it."
Shen Wanxi crossed her legs, crossed her arms, and snorted coldly: "That Su Niannian went against me. Not only did she steal Gu Yuheng from me, but she also made me lose face in the hospital and become the laughing stock of the entire hospital. If I hadn't taught Su Niannian a lesson, she would have become even more arrogant and domineering. This is what she owes me."
That day, she was the one who provoked first, but Shen Wanxi twisted the truth and blamed everything on Su Niannian's fault.
Knowing that Su Niannian had a snobbish mother, she took the initiative to go to the Su family's house, hoping they would spread rumors about Su Niannian. However, outside the door, she overheard Li Xiumei trying to bribe her way into Su Niannian's favor.
She suddenly changed her mind and had the part-time worker's son pretend to be a chicken vendor to sell a problematic old hen to Li Xiumei.
That way she won't have to show her face.
The hourly worker asked cautiously, "Miss Chen, what's wrong with the chicken you gave me?"
Shen Wanxi held her hands in front of her eyes, admiring her beautiful fingers.
"It's just that the chickens were fed mangoes for a few days. Normal people will have no problem eating them, but people who are allergic to mangoes may have some minor problems."
She had accidentally seen Su Niannian's pregnancy test results, which stated that she was allergic to mangoes.
Although Shen Wanxi hated Su Niannian to death.
But she wasn't foolish enough to kill someone. She still harbored illusions about Gu Yuheng, fearing that if the truth came out and Gu Yuheng found out she was the one who did it, he would hate her for life, and she and Gu Yuheng would never be able to be together again.
However, it would be best if Su Niannian's two children could die in the womb.
After hearing this, the cleaning lady went to open the door.
Then police officers in uniform walked in.
Holding their police badges, they said sternly, "Shen Wanxi, you are suspected of poisoning someone, and we are about to arrest you."
Shen Wanxi stared wide-eyed, getting up from the sofa in disbelief.
She retorted sharply, "What evidence do you have? A society governed by the rule of law is not a place where you can falsely accuse people."
The police took the recorded phone from the hourly worker.
"The evidence you want is right here. What else can you say to argue your case?"
Even someone as naive as Shen Wanxi understood what was going on.
She yelled hysterically at the cleaning lady, "How dare you betray me! I paid you!"
When disaster strikes, everyone flees for their lives. The hourly worker said, "Miss Shen, don't you know that confessing leads to leniency, while resisting leads to severity? I had no choice but to do this for my son."
The police officer stepped forward, grabbed Shen Wanxi's shoulder, and led her outside.
Shen Wanxi struggled to say, "My father is Shen Li, you can't treat me like this."
The policeman's face darkened: "You've murdered the young mistress of the Gu family. You should know the Gu family's status in politics. Even your father can't save you."

Two days later, the rash on Su Niannian's body completely disappeared.
The weather is lovely today. Kyoto is about to celebrate Christmas, and the streets are bustling with crowds.
To welcome the annual Christmas, businesses put up Christmas trees in front of their stores well in advance, decorated with beautiful lights.
Gu Yuheng also had the courtyard decorated, with colorful lights hanging on the trees and a Christmas tree as tall as a person placed in the living room.
The villa was instantly filled with the Christmas atmosphere.
Su Niannian has never celebrated Christmas since she was a child, nor has she ever received a Christmas gift. Christmas is something she can do without.
So Gu Yuheng wanted to give Nian Nian a different kind of Christmas.
After breakfast, Gu Yuheng personally dressed Su Niannian in a handmade wool coat, a beret, and lambskin boots decorated with pink rhinestones.
With the slightest movement, the diamond sparkled brilliantly in the sunlight.
They first went to the amusement park and rode the carousel that Su Niannian had always wanted to ride.
Su Niannian, holding onto the rocking horse pole, gave a big smile to the man taking pictures of her below.
"Is it fun?"
Gu Yuheng walked over, opened his arms, and lifted the little girl off the stopped rocking horse.
Su Niannian held his neck and nodded happily, "Mmm."
A little boy not far away, holding his mother's hand, said, "Mom, that uncle is lifting the older sister up high!"
Su Niannian overheard this and blushed. She quickly asked Gu Yuheng to put her down.
But she was actually happy inside.
She truly thanked God for letting her meet a man who loved her, and whom she loved in return.
