Chapter 587: Yuanyuan, Do You Know How Much I Love You

On the morning of the next day, when Gu Yuan opened her eyes, there was no one beside her on the pillow.

As she moved her body to get up, she caught a glimpse out of the corner of her eye of Chi Yu, already dressed and standing at the bedside with his back to her.

She seemed so tired; last night, the three of them slept in one bed, and she had no idea when the big one and the little one got up early in the morning.

As she made a move to get up, Chi Yu turned slightly to look at her.

That exquisite and stunning profile made Gu Yuan daze for a moment, followed by an inexplicable sense of disorientation, which became even more intense when Chi Yu approached the bed and leaned down for a kiss.

His warm lips covered hers, lingering, and gradually deepening, passionately...

Gu Yuan was kissed breathless, not because she was regressing, but because Chi Yu’s kiss was exceptionally deep.

So deep that it seemed to almost reach her throat.

She was drowned, intoxicated in this entwined kiss.

When they parted, Gu Yuan was left with no energy to even get up.

"...Chi Yu."

Her lips still glistened, fingers tangled in his thick black hair, softly calling his name, as if she couldn’t gather enough air.

"Yuanyuan." He called her with a tender voice.

This scene felt like going back to the morning a few years ago when she was about to go on a business trip to Haojiang.

He was also the first to wake up, dressed neatly and standing by the bed waiting for her to wake up, and when she opened her eyes, the kiss that descended was as passionate and rich as the one just now, seeming to drown her in it.

Gu Yuan struggled to catch her breath.

She felt that she must be overthinking.

She shifted her attention and asked him, "Where’s Suisui?"

Chi Yu, with one hand supporting beside her face and the other covering her cheek with affection, replied, "Our daughter went downstairs."

His hand stroked her cheek repeatedly, his beautiful, affectionate eyes deeply gazing at her face, carefully tracing, observing, etching every expression into his heart.

Gu Yuan looked at his expression at this moment and always felt it was somewhat different from usual.

But when she compared carefully, she found nothing different.

No matter when, didn’t he always gaze at her with such affection?

Before he did.

Now he does too.

Withdrawing her hand, she pushed away the hand cradling her face: "Alright, let me get up."

He didn’t listen, obstinately staying close to her: "Just a little longer."

"But I want to get up," Gu Yuan said.

Chi Yu remained silent for three or four seconds, then stepped aside and got up.

Gu Yuan quickly dressed and simply tidied her hair. She was about to go downstairs to freshen up, as there was no hot water upstairs. Just as she reached the door, Chi Yu came up from behind, wrapping his arms around her, his chin resting greedily on her shoulder, softly calling her, "Yuanyuan, don’t go."

He seemed afraid she would leave.

Gu Yuan sighed inwardly.

Last night, wanting to sleep with Suisui, Chi Yu had to behave himself, not daring to do anything too forward, and no matter what he wanted to do, he could only hold back. She was also exhausted from the day, had no mind to care about his feelings, and fell asleep quickly after putting Suisui to bed.

This morning, he was so clingy, his eyes were even more full of that Peach Blossom Pond water, as if he wished to melt her, his desire outdoing even a cat in heat in spring.

"Quiet those thoughts," she paused, then added something he liked to hear: "We’re going back today, we’ll talk then."

She thought these words might make him feel a bit better.

But, the arms around her waist only tightened more, refusing to let go.

"Chi Yu, I have nothing important to do, but don’t you?" Gu Yuan spoke to him while struggling in the embrace, "I heard your show’s finale was delayed until eleven in the morning, to wait for the two other guests who got mushroom poisoning to return from the hospital, shouldn’t you be downstairs helping out by now?"

This seemed to have some effect.

The grip around her waist gradually loosened.

He turned her around to face him.

Holding her face, he asked directly, "Do you miss me?"

Gu Yuan: ?

"Tell me, do you miss me?" It seemed he asked just to hear her answer, hands holding her face not letting go, just to hear her say she missed him.

Gu Yuan didn’t understand what kind of mood he was in so early in the morning.

But seeing him like this, it was like he was possessed by a drama king, likely a temporary symptom, complying might just bring resolution.
