Gu Qinghuai looked at her tear-streaked face, reached out his calloused fingertips, and carefully wiped her cheeks. His gaze was tender, and the love surging in his heart almost made him lose control. He almost lowered his head and kissed her.
Judging from Lin Xihe's various reactions, he was certain that he held a place in her heart.
"My Xihe, how can you be so beautiful even when you're crying?" Gu Qinghuai smiled and gently lifted Lin Xihe's chin with his index finger.
Lin Xihe came to her senses and couldn't help but scold, "Don't you know how to cherish your own body?"
"What's wrong? What did the doctor say? Did he say I'm going to die soon?" Gu Qinghuai teased her deliberately, his eyes full of mischief.
Lin Xihe glared at him fiercely and replied irritably, "Tell me you're pregnant and will give birth next month!"
As she spoke, she made a move to stand up, no longer wanting to pay attention to this guy who made her both angry and anxious.
Before she could get up, Gu Qinghuai stretched out his long arm and pulled her back into his arms.
"If I get pregnant, the child will be yours," he joked with a grin.
Lin Xihe struggled a few times but couldn't break free. Seeing that Gu Qinghuai's complexion had improved, she gradually regained her senses and her tone became polite but distant again: "General Gu, you are a dignified man.

"You little rascal, you change your tune pretty quickly." Gu Qinghuai raised an eyebrow. Just a moment ago she was crying her heart out over his wounds, but now her attitude has completely changed.
"Never mind that, I'm going home, let go." Lin Xihe's attitude was firm.
"No, my fiancé is like this, you have to stay and take care of me."
Gu Qinghuai also started to act shamelessly. In his opinion, what did it matter if he pretended to be pitiful and humble? As long as he could keep Lin Xihe by his side, everything was worth it.
Moreover, he was certain that Lin Xihe had feelings for him, and he would never let go, even if it took thirty-six stratagems.
"Take care of you? You're dreaming." Lin Xihe said angrily.
"If you don't come, I won't take my medicine. You can try it." Gu Qinghuai said, half threatening and half coquettish.
"Fine, don't eat then, I'm leaving."
After Lin Xixi finished speaking, she turned around and strode away without looking back.
When she came out, Ling Shuang had been waiting anxiously. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lin Xihe come out safe and sound.
