rival
What should he do? What should he do? No, he won't give up. He still has a chance before they get married.
After all, he had known Ye Wanqing for a longer time.
He believed that his sincerity would still be able to move Ye Wanqing.
Xue Mubai was trying to figure things out for himself, and after finally adjusting his mindset, he knocked on the door again.
"Knock knock knock".
Upon hearing a knock on the door, Ye Wanqing and Gu Mohan inside quickly let go of each other's hands.
Ye Wanqing quickly straightened her clothes.
Xue Mubai walked in, quickly came over, went to the bedside, and took her hand. "Wanqing, are you alright? I heard that bastard Xiao Heng stabbed you."
Gu Mohan said coldly, "It's been three days and you're only finding out now. If you had come two days later, you could have been at the banquet."
Ye Wanqing: ...
This Gu Mohan really hasn't lost his sharp tongue.
"By the way, where is Xiao Heng?" Ye Wanqing asked.
"Xiao Heng has been arrested for intentional assault."
Ye Wanqing immediately fell silent. After all, it was a fact that Xiao Heng had injured someone. Moreover, his body was possessed by Ye Yan. It was only right that he was captured.
Xue Mubai reached out and touched her face. Seeing how haggard she looked, he felt very sorry for her.
"Wanqing, does your wound still hurt?"
"I……"
Before Ye Wanqing could say anything, Gu Mohan stepped forward and shoved his hand away, saying, "How dare you touch Wanqing's hand?"
"What, I can't touch it, but you can?" Xue Mubai retorted, immediately pushing his hand away.
Gu Mohan chuckled and immediately stepped forward to pull Ye Wanqing into his arms. "I forgot to introduce you. Ye Wanqing is my girlfriend. My official girlfriend."
"Don't joke around. Everyone at Beijing Normal University knows that Ye Wanqing is my girlfriend."
Although Xue Mubai knew that what he said was most likely true, he didn't want to admit it.
Seeing that he didn't believe him, Gu Mohan immediately leaned down and kissed Ye Wanqing.
Ye Wanqing was completely taken aback by this turn of events and was immediately stunned.
"Do you believe me now?" Gu Mohan's eyes narrowed slightly, filled with murderous intent and the arrogant demeanor of someone in a superior position.
Xue Mubai clenched his fist and stared intently at Ye Wanqing. "Wanqing, I want to hear it from you in person. Is what he said true?"
Ye Wanqing was speechless. This damned love triangle! Gu Mohan was really something, knowing full well that Xue Mubai liked her, yet deliberately saying this in front of her.
Isn't this just embarrassing her? After all, she was thinking of raising fish.
How am I supposed to raise fish then?
"I..." Ye Wanqing stammered, unable to speak.
Seeing her hesitation, Xue Mubai knew that he still had a chance.
Seeing her hesitation, Gu Mohan felt a chill in his heart.
A man who refuses to openly introduce himself to a man who has feelings for him.
His intentions are all too obvious.
"What's wrong, Wanqing? Don't you like me? Why won't you admit it in front of Xue Mubai?"
Ye Wanqing pursed her lips, "That's not how it is. Xue Mubai is also a good friend of mine, and he has helped me a lot. I don't want things to be too awkward for everyone."
"To put it bluntly, you just want to have your cake and eat it too, right?" Gu Mohan was a little angry. "Then what about all these days I've been acting like a fool, waiting in front of you for you to wake up? You've made me feel like a fool."
Gu Mohan was not a submissive person. Seeing that Ye Wanqing refused to answer, he immediately slammed the door and left.
"Gu Mohan?" Ye Wanqing called out to him, but he didn't turn around.
She tried to get up and climb out of bed to chase after them, but the pain from her wounds was so intense that she couldn't get out of bed at all.
Seeing this, Xue Mubai quickly stepped forward to support her, "Wanqing, you still have wounds. Take it easy."
Ye Wanqing had no choice but to lie back down on the bed.
Xue Mubai gently covered her with the blanket.
"Wanqing, what do you want to eat? I'll go buy it for you."
Ye Wanqing looked at Xue Mubai, somewhat embarrassed, "Xue Mubai. I..."
"Wanqing, don't say anything. I don't want to hear any rejection. I just want to stay by your side."
Ye Wanqing felt that Xue Mubai was really good. Suddenly, her nose tingled, and tears streamed down her face.
"Wanqing, why are you crying?"
"Xue Mubai, you've been so good to me. I feel so sorry for you, because I knew how you felt about me, but I still let you down..."
"Don't say that." Xue Mubai gently wiped away her tears, his fingertips warm. "Being good to you is something I do willingly, you never need to say sorry."
He paused, his voice softening slightly: "Actually... I already figured it out when I was standing outside the door. Even if you choose Gu Mohan now, it's okay. My feelings for you are my own business. I just hope you can be happy."
Ye Wanqing's tears flowed even more fiercely. Xue Mubai's forgiveness made her feel a surge of guilt.
Gu Mohan's domineering nature both captivated and suffocated her.
Xue Mubai's gentleness was like an invisible net, making her indulge in it while preventing her from truly hardening her heart.
Sometimes she even wished that the gentle Xue Mubai could be a little more domineering, and that the domineering Gu Mohan could be a little more gentle.
Unfortunately, people don't complement each other. These two men each had their own style.
"Okay, stop crying, Wanqing. It will break my heart if you keep crying."
Xue Mubai got up, considerately poured a glass of warm water, tested the temperature before holding it to her lips, "Drink some water. Your face is so pale, have you not eaten properly since you woke up? I'll go buy you something to eat, okay?"
Ye Wanqing nodded.
"Be good, wait for me to come back." Xue Mubai gently reached out and touched her hair before turning away.
Watching Xue Mubai's hurried departure, Ye Wanqing's mind was in complete turmoil.
Xue Mubai returned quickly, bringing not only steaming hot seafood porridge but also several light side dishes.
He carefully blew on the porridge to cool it down, then gently helped her up before handing her the spoon.
"Be careful, it's hot."
Ye Wanqing ate without tasting anything, while Xue Mubai sat quietly by the bed watching her, his focused gaze making her feel somewhat uneasy.
"Wanqing," he suddenly spoke, breaking the silence, "don't you like that I'm too gentle?"
Ye Wanqing paused, her hand holding the spoon still. "Why would you think that?"
"I feel like I'm definitely too gentle compared to Gu Mohan. But don't worry, Wanqing, I'm anything but gentle in bed."
"...Xue Mubai, what are you saying?" Ye Wanqing felt the tips of her ears turn red.
"I'm telling the truth. Once you're healed, do you want to test whether what I said is true?" Xue Mubai's eyes held a half-smile.
"Stop joking, this joke isn't funny at all!"
Ye Wanqing forced a smile. This Xue Mubai didn't seem like someone who was good in bed at all.
Unlike Gu Mohan, who gives the impression of being a hungry wolf in bed.
