A glint flashed in Shen Yao's eyes, and then she tugged at Shen Yanqing's arm, pleading in a soft voice, "Brother Yanqing, I'm hungry. Will you take me to eat later?"
She blinked her big eyes and looked at Shen Yanqing expectantly.
Shen Yanqing frowned almost imperceptibly. He didn't have much affection for this cousin. If it weren't for his good second uncle, he wouldn't bother with her at all.
However, Shen Yao clearly didn't understand his resistance. She grabbed his arm and shook it, almost pressing herself against Shen Yanqing: "Also, I don't like this woman. Can you make her leave right away?"
She continued to act coquettishly, completely ignoring the other two people in the room.
Shen Yanqing's expression grew colder and colder. Having known him for so long, this was the first time Gu Baiwei had ever seen him on the verge of anger. Most of the time, he controlled his emotions very well.
Sure enough, the next moment, Shen Yanqing pulled her arm back, her tone icy: "Let go."
"No, Brother Yanqing, she came back for you, how can you be so heartless?"
Clearly, this young lady had no sense of propriety and continued to tug at Shen Yanqing's hospital gown sleeve, acting coquettishly.
"Big Head, take Miss Biao out."
Shen Yanqing took a deep breath and told them to leave.
Da Tou stepped forward and gestured invitingly: "Miss Shen, our husband is tired and needs to rest. Please."
Shen Yao's face immediately flashed with displeasure. She glanced at Gu Baiwei standing next to her out of the corner of her eye, pointed at her and said, "Brother Yan Qing, why are you letting me out but not letting her out?"
The room fell into a deathly silence after those words.
Shen Yanqing's gaze swept coldly over Shen Yao, and he parted his thin lips slightly: "She is different."
"What's different?"
Shen Yao persisted, but suddenly met Shen Yanqing's extremely cold gaze, and inexplicably shivered, immediately falling silent.
This was the first time she had ever seen Shen Yanqing look at her like that, as if she were looking at trash.
She bit her lower lip and reluctantly walked out the door.
It wasn't until the hospital room door closed that Shen Yao suddenly came to her senses. Brother Yan Qing said she was different from that woman? Did that mean that woman…
Her bright eyes instantly dimmed. She bit her lower lip and glanced at the door behind her, a venomous glint in her eyes. Why did that woman deserve special treatment from Brother Yan Qing? She and Brother Yan Qing were clearly a match made in heaven.
Remembering what Shen Yanqing had asked her, Shen Yao's eyes darkened. She could help Brother Yanqing with that favor, but only if Brother Yanqing was hers.
Inside the room, the moment the ward door closed, Shen Yanqing leaned against the headboard and beckoned to Gu Baiwei: "Weiwei, come here."
Gu Baiwei met his eyes, which were as gentle and calm as ever, and for some reason, she felt that he seemed to be in a bad mood.
But his expression remained unchanged as he walked to the bedside and said, "Mr. Shen."
Her voice was soft and pleasant, and her words carried a hint of coquetry, quite different from Shen Yao's deliberate affectation.
Shen Yanqing's eyes were dark, and he reached out his large hand to pull the person over.
Caught off guard, Gu Baiwei was pulled off balance and ended up lying on his hospital bed.
She instinctively tried to get up, but Shen Yanqing suddenly rolled over and pinned her to the bed, supporting himself on either side of her body with his hands. There seemed to be a fire surging in his warm and beautiful eyes.
"Friend, huh?"
The hot, masculine scent sprayed onto Gu Baiwei's face. As their breaths mingled, Gu Baiwei felt her heart skip a beat.
"Mr. Shen."
Gu Baiwei didn't know why he was angry. Wasn't it clearly something he had tacitly agreed to?
She subconsciously called out softly, feeling that Shen Yanqing was very different from usual, which inexplicably made her feel uneasy.
"I said... to call me by my name."
Shen Yanqing lowered his head and his thin lips brushed against her forehead, gliding down her delicate, fair cheek before he lowered his head and kissed her small earlobe.
A tingling sensation spread from her earlobe, and Gu Baiwei's body instantly stiffened. He... he was actually...
"Weiwei, your friends wouldn't do this to you..."
Shen Yanqing's somewhat husky voice rang in her ears, and Gu Baiwei's face instantly turned bright red.
In her past life, even her husband Ye Yunting had never done anything like this to her. Apart from routine intimacy, the two of them rarely had any other intimate behavior, and they even rarely kissed.
This was the first time she had been flirted with so intimately by a man, and her heart began to pound uncontrollably.
Shen Yanqing's burning lips kissed her all the way down her earlobe to her fair neck, and the temperature in the room gradually rose.
Gu Baiwei didn't know what to do, so she could only stiffly and clumsily let him do as he pleased.
Seeing her like this, Shen Yanqing's gaze softened even more. His pale fingers traced her neck and stopped at her collar: "Weiwei, when can you give me an answer about the marriage... I can't wait any longer."
The moment the words left his lips, burning hot lips pressed against her chest. Gu Baiwei felt increasingly uncomfortable as the soft touch penetrated deeper...
Just then, the door was pushed open with a bang, and Big Head strode in with a look of eager anticipation: "Sir, I've seen Miss Shen off..."
Before he could even speak, he met his eldest brother's cold gaze once again.
Behind the boss, Miss Gu was sitting on the bed, her face flushed with embarrassment, tidying her clothes.
Da Tou stood there stunned for a moment, then belatedly realized that he seemed to have offended his boss again.
"Boss, Miss Gu, I'm sorry, I didn't see anything."
Big Head yelled and retreated, slamming the door shut behind him.
The moment the door closed, his face fell. He was doomed. At this rate, he'd be sent back to Africa sooner or later, probably permanently.
Just as Da Tou was looking annoyed, the door behind him was suddenly opened, and Gu Baiwei walked out of the ward with a flushed face.
"Miss Gu, you're leaving already?"
Gu Baiwei nodded, then blushed and quickly left. That was just too outrageous!
She drove home, and when she got out of the car, the breeze outside helped to ease the heat on her face.
Taking a deep breath, she picked up her small handbag and walked home.
Upon entering, she was surprised to find someone sitting in the living room.
Gu Baiwei's face instantly turned cold as she looked at Ye Yunting sitting in the living room, her tone icy: "What are you doing here?"
When Ye Yunting saw her return, he stood up from the sofa with a somewhat ingratiating expression: "Weiwei, you're back."
He strode forward to meet her, his gaze inadvertently falling on her slightly swollen lips, and the smile on his face vanished instantly: "You went to see that Mr. Shen?"
Gu Baiwei blushed and her heart raced as she recalled the scene with Shen Yanqing earlier, but she remained remarkably calm in the face of Ye Yunting's questioning tone.
"Who I meet seems to have nothing to do with Mr. Ye, right?"
