After finishing watching the drama and eating the ice cream, Ye Rong began to feel that something was wrong.
My stomach hurts a little, and it seems to be getting worse. This unfamiliar pain is different from the colic that I've complained about before... Ye Rong took a breath, for the first time in her life.
But I don’t want this to be the first time!
Calculating the cycle, it's not running, Ye Rong is weak, why is it so painful, it hurts so much that I'm sweating.
At this moment, she finally understood what the two worlds of ice and fire meant. The two camps of ice and fire were fighting in her body. Both sides were powerful and evenly matched. The more they fought, the braver they became. Thus, a world in which only she was injured was born.
Ye Rong was trying to divert her attention here, and tried not to shout so as not to disturb Gu Weisheng's rest, so she didn't notice when he came out of the room.
Gu Weisheng's hair was wet and steamy, obviously he had just taken a shower. He came to the living room to get a hair dryer. When he passed by the sofa, he glanced at Ye Rong who was curled up on the sofa with her back to him. He noticed her abnormality at a glance and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wenwen's gentle and gentle voice sounded like fairy music to Ye Rong, and it was the kind that came with golden light and colorful silk!
But...what again? Ye Rong lay on the bed, holding her belly, in so much pain that she doubted her life. She didn't care about her girlish heart or shame at all, and she had no desire to live: "My period hurts."
"..." Gu Weisheng paused for a moment and realized that she was suffering from dysmenorrhea.
The air conditioning in the living room was very strong, and there were two empty ice cream boxes on the table. He glanced at her calmly, leaned over to take the air conditioner remote control to turn up the indoor temperature, and then called the front desk to ask for brown sugar ginger tea.
"I don't think brown sugar ginger tea can relieve the pain." A cramp came, and Ye Rong suppressed the groan that was about to escape her mouth, "Um... Gu Weisheng, I remember you have painkillers..."
"No." Gu Weisheng's tone turned cold.
Ye Rong buried her face in her arms listlessly, saying weakly: "...stingy."
Gu Weisheng's tone turned cold: "Didn't anyone tell you not to take random medicines?"
"..." Aren't painkillers used to relieve pain? But he sounded like he was really angry. Ye Rong couldn't bear the pain and could only curl up to try to relieve the pain.
Gu Weisheng looked at her curled up in pain with a pale face, and called the front desk again.
About twenty minutes later, the waiter brought what he ordered. In addition to the brown sugar ginger tea, there was also a painkiller on the tray.
Gu Weisheng poured her a cup of warm water, then helped her sit up and handed her the water: "Take the painkillers first."
Ye Rong sat up weakly, her whole body weight leaning on the person next to her. At this moment, she couldn't care less and took the medicine from his hand.
Half an hour later, the painkiller took effect and Ye Rong felt that she was alive again.
She sat on the sofa, drinking the brown sugar ginger tea slowly. The color gradually returned to her face.
She looked up at Gu Weisheng who had just handed her water and medicine. Her eyelashes were wet by the mist of ginger tea and she blinked: "Thank you, Gu Weisheng."
Seeing that she was fine, Gu Weisheng said "hmm" lightly, took the hair dryer and left. At this time, his hair was already half dry.
Ye Rong sat on the sofa, holding the cup tightly in her arms and hugging the pillow, looking at his back in a daze.
Just now, did she seem to lean on him? He didn't push her away like last time! Ye Rong blinked, not ignoring her pain, but taking care of her patiently.
Although he is the designated villain in the book, if it weren't for the accident ten years ago, if it weren't for the humiliation, persecution and conspiracy of those people who took advantage of his misfortune, Gu Weisheng could have had a better ending and a bright and gentle future.
Ye Rong's eyelashes trembled slightly, thinking of the wailing in the comments section of that article about the villain's ending. Ye Rong suddenly felt that it was too late for her to not watch Gu Weisheng's ending.
With state intervention this time, the future will definitely change in a positive direction.
She firmly believes it.
The afternoon sun shone through the window onto the sofa. Ye Rong hugged the pillow. Maybe because she was in too much pain just now, the warmth of the sun made her feel a little tired.
Ye Rong didn't want to move anymore. She sat on the sofa and looked towards the sea outside.
Just when she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard the sound of a door opening, and then a figure approached her.
Ye Rong knew it was Gu Weisheng, so she let herself sleep. When she was half asleep and half awake, it seemed like someone covered her with a thin blanket.
This sleep lasted until midnight when Ye Rong woke up.
She opened her eyes. The light in the room was very soft. She could faintly hear the sound of fingertips tapping on a notebook. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw it was Gu Weisheng.
He was dressed neatly, with a pair of half-frame glasses on his nose, the lenses reflecting the light on the screen. Ye Rong was stunned for a moment, this was the first time she saw him at work, this Gu Weisheng looked more like a stranger than he did in the past.
Ye Rong did not make a sound to disturb him. She just watched for a while. Then Gu Weisheng felt something and looked in her direction, saying in a cold tone, "Awake?"
Just as he opened his mouth, she realized that the no-entry attitude just now seemed to be an illusion.
"...Yeah." Ye Rong blinked, looked at the thin blanket covering her body, and realized that the person who covered her with the thin blanket while she was half asleep and half awake was Gu Weisheng, and it was not an illusion.
Gu Weisheng took off his glasses, and the hair on his forehead fell down a little because of his action. He stood up and said, "There is red bean and barley porridge made by Zhao Rui for you in the kitchen."
He closed his notebook and looked at the palm-sized box on the table: "This is yours too."
Following his gaze, Ye Rong asked casually, "What is this?"
"..." Gu Weisheng paused, then smiled: "What do you think it is?"
I don't know. Ye Rong blinked and reached out to take it... When she saw it, her ears were hot with embarrassment. It was obviously a box of tampons. Although the label on it was foreign, sanitary products were recognizable by the icon, and it also came with a picture of instructions for use.
She was so embarrassed that her ears turned red, and she said dryly, "Thank you, thank you."
Seeing her like this, Gu Weisheng looked away and explained: "Zhao Rui prepared this for you."
These words made Ye Rong stunned for a moment. She knew that it was impossible for Gu Weisheng to prepare them. After all, she couldn't imagine the scene of the big boss preparing such personal items for her.
Ye Rong put her things away and suddenly remembered that she and Gu Weisheng were going to attend the dance tonight, so she checked the time. At this point... it was too late.
Painkillers have a certain sleeping effect. She slept for a long time and felt a little groggy. She looked at Gu Weisheng who was getting up and preparing to go back to the house and asked, "Are we still going to the dance?"
Gu Weisheng turned to look at her and said in a calm tone, "I have already explained to Mrs. Norman that it won't be too late to celebrate on the last day of the ball."
Hearing this, Ye Rong breathed a sigh of relief. Although the tampon was prepared for her by the assistant, the assistant didn't know that she had her period and handled the social activities at the dance quietly.
Ye Rong was a little dazed watching his leaving back. At least the Gu Weisheng she saw and the villain in the book who was as scary as a devil... didn't seem to be the same person.
So, was it that Gu Weisheng hid too much, or did something happen before the plot began?
Gu Weisheng returned to the house. Ye Rong sat on the sofa and recalled the plot she knew, but in the end she failed to find any valuable information.
However, if she thinks about it carefully, she doesn't need to think so complicatedly. No matter whether it is the first or the second, as long as the country is there, all problems can be solved.
So all of a sudden, Ye Rong felt relieved again.
…
Two days passed in a flash.
The weather at sea started to change in the past two days. It rained heavily last night. The shaking of the cruise ship could be clearly felt on the cruise ship.
The rain stopped early in the morning.
The sky outside was still foggy, and the entertainment facilities on the cruise ship deck suddenly became deserted, but this did not affect people's mood, because there were only more and more entertainment facilities indoors, with more variety, and people would not feel bored.
Ye Rong lay in bed for two days and finally recovered. During these two days, Sister Lin also paid attention to her physical condition, and her brief greetings made Ye Rong feel at ease.
In order to make herself look less listless, Ye Rong felt that she also needed to move around and regain some energy.
However, she definitely couldn't go to the bar now, and go-kart parks didn't seem to be suitable for her either. After thinking it over, she asked Sister Lin.
Sister Lin quickly gave her an answer: [Musical is a good choice.]
Yeah.
Ye Rong put away her phone and decided to invite Gu Weisheng to join her.
After all, I felt a little guilty for leaving Gu Weisheng alone to play. In fact, the root cause was that I always felt something was missing when I went out to watch a musical alone.
So she knocked on Gu Weisheng's door.
The door opened from the inside.
Seeing Gu Weisheng dressed neatly, Ye Rongfei rubbed his hands and said, "It must be boring to stay in the house all day. I heard that the Shanghai Grand Theater is very good. Let's go watch a musical together?"
Gu Weisheng had just finished his work, and there was still a hint of tiredness between his eyebrows. Seeing her expectant look, he raised his eyes and said, "Musical?"
"Yes, it can not only relax your mind, but also cultivate your sentiments. You see, it kills two birds with one stone." Ye Rong is well aware of the fact that work can make people depressed. Although Gu Weisheng never said what he was busy with, Ye Rong knew that this big man was a workaholic in another sense. He was able to expand his power overseas in just a few years. He was not just a business genius. In other words, this man in front of him was not only a genius, but also hardworking. He did not forget to work even when on vacation.
Xianyu expressed respect for Congqiu, but did not want to follow suit.
Just as Gu Weisheng was about to refuse, he saw Ye Rong blinking at him and suddenly smiled: "Is there sand in your eyes?"
"..." Being caught off guard by his "unintentional" stab, Ye Rong pretended to be sad, "You don't understand, this is called flirting."
Gu Weisheng's smile deepened: "Your winks are unique, don't do it next time."
Ye Rong was dumbfounded: "..."
How did I get myself into trouble?
Ye Rong expressed regret.
At that moment, Ye Rong realized that the boss must have never seen a real wink, so she looked up at Gu Weisheng's indifferent expression, winked at the boss seriously, and then put her hands on her waist proudly in her heart: "What about this time?"
Gu Weisheng's smile faded a little: "Did your eyelashes fall into your eyes?"
“???” Ye Rong was defeated in seconds. He was indeed a big shot. Even the things that required him to be alone were amazing!
Ye Rong gave up completely.
Finally, Gu Weisheng, probably because he had just finished digging bamboo shoots and was in a good mood, agreed to accompany her to the theater.
The play was not long and was over in an hour and a half.
After enjoying a top-notch audio-visual feast, Ye Rong was in high spirits. When the two of them came out of the theater, it was already noon outside.
When the two of them were walking back after lunch, the sky was clear for a while.
Ye Rong looked at the wavy sea through the railing, calculated the time, and looked at Gu Weisheng beside her: "According to the route, we can reach Connor Island after nightfall, right?"
Coney Island is also the last stop of the Muse cruise ship.
Gu Weisheng looked at the sea in the distance and hummed with an indiscernible emotion. It was unknown what he was thinking.
Ye Rong suddenly thought of the time when he was sent by the Gu family to live on a small island for nearly ten years, although Ye Rong felt that Gu Weisheng was not so fragile that he would be easily reminded of his past tragic experiences by an island and show anger or grief.
If she had to use a metaphor to describe Gu Weisheng, it would be that he is like a deep pool of water with no bottom. Unless he really shows his cards, no one knows what the dangers under the water are.
He is definitely not a lone wolf who needs to lick his wounds in a deserted corner. He is the most patient hunter.
Ye Rong suddenly realized that since she met Gu Weisheng, she had hardly ever seen Gu Weisheng's true emotions and appearance. He always looked like he had nothing on his mind and his life was peaceful. No matter whether he looked cold or gentle, it was hard to tell what his true emotions were underneath.
On the way back home, Ye Rong was distracted all the time.
Gu Weisheng returned to the house as usual. Ye Rong remembered that she had to attend the dance on the last day, so she prepared to go back to bed and take a nap.
However, Ye Rong did not sleep well. She had a lot of messy dreams all the time, but when she woke up, she didn't know what she dreamed about. Instead, she was sweating all over.
"..." Ye Rong took a shower, changed into clean clothes, then opened the curtains and looked out the window to see the vast expanse of darkness outside.
The sea is foggy.
-
An hour ago.
Yuguo, NSI headquarters.
"Minister, our satellite monitoring shows that sea fog has risen on the route of the Muse cruise ship, and it is predicted that it will extend about ten kilometers into the land of Connor Island. However, the captain of the Muse cruise ship has no intention of stopping the voyage and continues to sail towards Connor Island. There are many reefs near Connor Island. I am worried that the Muse will be at risk of running aground..."
Command room.
Minister Liang had a serious expression, and naturally thought of this, but it was not appropriate for the national government to directly stop this matter, and it would even lead to unwarranted speculation and investigation by various countries. There was also an NSI field team on the Muse cruise ship to perform the task of secretly protecting Ye Rong and Gu Weisheng. No matter what, the existence of Ye Rong and the system must not be exposed, even if there is a slight risk, it must be eliminated.
"We do not have sufficient reasons for the national government to intervene in the route of a private cruise ship from another country, and the cruise ship is in the territorial waters of another country." Minister Liang moved his hand across the world map and stopped at the Huozi Sea, some distance away from Connor Island. Pirates often appear in the Huozi Sea, so escort fleets from various countries will go to this area to perform escort missions to protect the lives and property of citizens of the United States. The escort fleet of the United States is also performing escort missions in the Huozi Sea.
Minister Liang raised his head and calmly ordered: "Contact General Lu Jun through the inside line."
"yes!"
-
There is fog on the sea.
However, this did not affect the speed of the Muse cruise ship.
In the afternoon, because she was going to attend a ball in the evening, the assistant and the makeup artist came early to prepare her ball dress and look.
Unlike Gu Weisheng, who only needed to change into a suit, Ye Rong's styling was obviously less time-consuming.
Different from the light makeup she wore at the coming-of-age ceremony two days ago, the makeup for this ball was more delicate and gorgeous, which made her already bright facial features even more attractive.
Ye Rong's hair was tied up, revealing her slender, fair neck. The cuffs, waist and collar of her dark-brown dress were wrapped with golden vine-like patterns, and even the uppers of her shoes were dotted with gold flakes.
Compared to Ye Rong's gorgeousness, Gu Weisheng was much more low-key. His well-tailored dark suit fit his body closely, and the only thing that contrasted with the girl was the pair of honey-yellow cat's eye cufflinks on his cuffs.
Brilliant flames lit up on the cruise ship.
At this time, the Muse cruise ship had left the high seas and began to enter the waters around Connor Island.
Meanwhile, the party has just begun.
The ballroom was on the top floor of the cruise ship, and the two took the elevator upstairs.
In the elevator, in addition to Ye Rong and Gu Weisheng, there was also a foreign couple in gorgeous clothes, who looked like guests attending the ball.
Unlike Ye Rong and Gu Weisheng, the two looked like a pair of young lovers, smiling at each other with sweetness in their eyes.
Ye Rong's face was covered with dog food.
"..." She managed her facial expression well and remained calm even in the cold wind. If she was alone, she would be fearless. But the young couple looked at Gu Weisheng with some disapproval.
Ye Rong suddenly found the courage from somewhere and gently tugged at Gu Weisheng's sleeve with her fingers.
The slight force made Gu Weisheng turn his head slightly to look at her. When she met his gentle eyes, Ye Rong burst out laughing: "Gu Weisheng, can you dance?"
"..." Gu Weisheng glanced at the cloth she was holding in her hand, thinking of the look the two strangers in the elevator had given him. He looked at her for a while and said, "That was a long time ago."
A long time ago...Ye Rong reacted instantly and immediately replied: "That's better than me, I can't even jump!"
It’s not that Ye Rong had never learned it, but she was born with poor limb coordination and the teachers gave up on her.
She was frank and confident. Gu Weisheng suddenly didn't know what she was happy about not being able to dance. He looked at her with a gentle curve in his eyes: "Blind confidence is also your advantage."
Ye Rong: “…”
If you don’t know how to praise, you don’t have to praise, really.
"bite--"
The elevator stopped.
Ye Rong grabbed Gu Weisheng's sleeve and walked out of the elevator, continuing, "Since we are both bad at dancing, let's just have fun together!"
"..." Gu Weisheng turned his head to look at her, "Padding?"
"Just fish in troubled waters..." Ye Rong hadn't even finished saying the word "fish" when she heard a loud "boom" in her ears, followed by a cry of surprise. Ye Rong felt the ground under her feet tilt slightly. Her heels were thin and high, and she couldn't stand steadily for a moment.
Ye Rong, fearing that she would fall and implicate Gu Weisheng, quickly let go of his sleeve. The moment her hand loosened, Gu Weisheng grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
Ye Rong fell into his arms. The warm woody scent was very faint, but surprisingly made people feel safe.
Looking up into his eyes, for a moment, Ye Rong felt a little deer playfully jumping on her chest.
Gu Weisheng half-lowered his eyes and looked at her, saying indifferently: "You are much more important than what you like. Stand up for yourself."
Ye Rong: “…”
The little deer fell to its death with a thud.
Ye Rong calmly collected the deer's body and stood up decisively. At the same time, the hand that was holding her waist and back loosened.
"…What happened?" The panicked voice of the young couple not far away came, "What happened to the shaking just now…"
At the same time, the captain's voice came from the cruise ship's radio: "...Dear passengers, there was a circuit failure just now. Please don't panic. I wish you all a pleasant journey."
Circuit failure? Ye Rong was stunned for a moment. What kind of circuit failure could cause such a big vibration of the hull? She was suspicious, but before she could speak, Gu Weisheng asked her, "Can we go?"
"Yes." Ye Rong nodded. She just couldn't stand steadily because it happened too suddenly.
Gu Weisheng looked in a certain direction, then grabbed her wrist again: "Come here."
At the same time, another voice came from the radio: "Please put on your life jackets, please put on your life jackets as soon as possible..."
These words caused the crowd to panic. Thinking of the loud noise just now, the people on the cruise ship immediately became agitated. Someone in the chaotic crowd shouted in fear:
"The cruise ship ran aground—"
