At this moment, Gu Yuan had already taken off her nightgown. Hearing the sound from behind, she knew it was Chi Yu coming in. However, she didn’t turn around and picked up her underwear to put it on.

Just as she fastened it, Chi Yu’s hands came up, replacing hers to clasp the bra hook.

He easily hooked it up for her.

His fingertips were warm, and when they touched her smooth skin, Chi Yu’s gaze grew ever more profound.

Gu Yuan sensed the man’s breath behind her had changed, and she quickly put on her clothes. Immediately after, she heard Chi Yu’s low chuckle from behind, saying in her ear, "What happened just now won’t happen again."

Gu Yuan snorted lightly, "Mother pigs don’t climb trees."

"..."

"I’m serious," he stepped aside to stand next to her.

Yet his gaze still lingered on some of the marks on her body, which he had ’accidentally’ left last night. With such a searing gaze, although he hadn’t done anything physically, that look was enough to devour Gu Yuan.

In the next second, that searing gaze was covered.

Gu Yuan tossed a square silk scarf onto Chi Yu’s face, successfully covering his head and blocking his straightforward and scorching gaze.

Gu Yuan quickly changed into her clothes and pants.

Chi Yu slowly took the scarf off his head, brought it to his nose, and sniffed. It was the scent of gardenias, the perfume Yuanyuan favored.

Seeing him sniffing the scarf, it wasn’t exactly sensual, but it wasn’t proper either. The air was filled with ambiguous energy, and she looked away and left the closet.

Chi Yu followed her out step by step.

"Are you a tailgater?" She was still a bit angry, so seeing him circling around her like a shadow annoyed her.

Chi Yu looked so aggrieved, "I already know I was wrong."

He actually admitted his mistake!

Gu Yuan didn’t think he’d admit his mistake today!

With arms crossed, she looked at him leisurely, "What did you do wrong?"

Chi Yu spoke with such seriousness, "I shouldn’t have had you four times last night, and then again this morning..."

"Stop!" "Not appropriate!"

Chi Yu said righteously, "This is something between adults, a sweet memory worth savoring. What’s inappropriate about that?"

Gu Yuan was too lazy to argue with him.

But her mood improved a lot, at least he knew he was wrong.

"Yuanyuan." Chi Yu walked over, and Gu Yuan didn’t shy away. When he stood in front of her, he asked, "Does it hurt there?"

He didn’t use blunt words to describe it.

Gu Yuan murmured, "A little. If you hadn’t come this morning, it probably wouldn’t have been a problem."

Chi Yu admitted, "It’s all my fault."

Gu Yuan replied, "Maybe I should cut it off."

"..."

His reasoning was, "If you cut it off, who’ll ensure your future happiness?"

Gu Yuan vented, "There are so many men in the world, do you think I’d lack one?!"

Even if she was just venting, it was enough to almost blow Chi Yu’s mind.

His muffled voice said, "The earth will keep spinning without me, but you without me is life’s greatest pity. So, you must cherish a man like me who’s hard to find even with a lantern."

Gu Yuan: "..." Shameless.

Over the years, Gu Yuan had gotten to know him inside out, and he remained just as shameless, a master at it.

But it really did hurt a bit, especially noticeable when she walked.

Still, it was his fault for not knowing moderation.

However, Gu Yuan also realized that she couldn’t let him go too long without intimacy in the future, or she’d be the one to suffer.

"Go buy some medicine." She instructed him.

"Is it medicine for there?" he wasn’t slow to react, just uncertain as he asked.

Gu Yuan: "Where else would it be for?"

"Got it," he said.

By this time, it was already 9 a.m., the height of rush hour, but this was Yujing No.1. There wouldn’t be any traffic congestion within three hundred meters of leaving here.

As for a pharmacy, there should be one nearby, so he wouldn’t have to walk far.

Even if there wasn’t, driving out wouldn’t take long.

Chi Yu had already planned it all out in his mind, and then pestered Gu Yuan to record a fingerprint unlock before happily going to buy medicine.

The reason for pestering her to record a fingerprint unlock was to avoid coming back and Gu Yuan not letting him in.

Gu Yuan grumbled, "Is that how you see me?"

Chi Yu said, "It’s about securing my rights."

Gu Yuan: "Pff."

Chi Yu: "I feel insecure."

And so, Gu Yuan gave him one.

After Chi Yu left, Gu Yuan was once again the only person in the vast flat. She hadn’t eaten much of her breakfast earlier, so she made herself a cup of coffee and stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking a large part of Sui City’s scenery.

It’s been a long time.
