Chapter 834: What’s a Wife for Otherwise?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Yuwei’s eyes widened.

Awkward.

Ye Yuwei’s chin started to hurt from the pinching. She said after some thought, “Qian Yikun confessed his love to me, it’s true.”

Gu Juexi’s expression darkened.

“And I rejected him, that’s also true,” Ye Yuwei quickly interjected before Gu Juexi strangled her to death.

Gu Juexi’s expression brightened.

“Although, in my opinion, Qian Yikun is far more gentlemanly than you are—”

Once again, Ye Yuwei was nipped, but this time, on her lips.

The laptop was pushed off the bed, and Ye Yuwei was pressed into the blankets.

It was unclear whose heart started to beat faster, but the atmosphere was clearly shifting to something else.

Her temperature was rising and her body tingled as Gu Juexi trailed kisses from her lips to her neck.

But—

“Wait!” Ye Yuwei involuntarily grabbed his hand, stopping him from unbuttoning her clothes. “The doctor said that you can’t do strenuous activities in your current situation.”

Ye Yuwei intentionally emphasized on the words ‘strenuous activities’.

Gu Juexi sighed wearily and buried his face in her neck. “You sure know how to kill the mood.”

Ye Yuwei was confused when Gu Juexi agreed obediently. She pushed him away from her and let him lay on the bed, face down. Blood stains were visible on his white shirt.

Moreover, judging from the color, it definitely didn’t seem like fresh blood coming from the recently torn wounds.

“Gu Juexi, are you sick?” Ye Yuwei shouted.

Gu Juexi knew that he couldn’t hide it anymore, but he remained calm, didn’t move and said unemotionally, “Yes, but it’s not sickness.”

Ye Yuwei forced herself to take a breath. Why did she have the strong urge to strangle him there and then?

Ye Yuwei went to her bag and took the medicine out, then helped him take off his shirt and unwrapped the bandage that was soaked in blood.

The wound was torn a little, probably from when he pulled her in the food alley.

New tissue was slowly growing over the wound and it looked quite dreadful. Since Ye Yuwei was the one helping him dress the wound, she wasn’t horrified at the sight any longer.

“Gu Juexi, can you take care of yourself, please?” Ye Yuwei said through clenched teeth as she dressed his wound.

Gu Juexi remained lying on the bed, as though the wound was not on his body. “I don’t have to take care of myself, I have a wife to do it for me. What’s a wife for otherwise?”

Ye Yuwei wondered where his flirting skills had come from.

Ye Yuwei finished applying the ointment and changed his wound dressing. She wanted to speak when she was rubbing the ointment for blood stasis on his back, but Gu Juexi was already deeply asleep.

The ability to fall asleep while in pain could be categorized in his long list of extraordinary abilities.

Ye Yuwei tidied up the bed and tucked the blanket in for Gu Juexi. She picked up the laptop on the floor and wanted to switch it off when the notification of an incoming email sounded.

Ye Yuwei didn’t think about looking at the email from ‘Fox’, but she was curious about the incoming email at this hour. She hesitated but finally decided to open it.

[Fox: I received news from Africa, that person is gone.]

Ye Yuwei stunned and looked at Gu Juexi who was fast asleep on the bed.

That person? Who was that person?

What was it that Gu Juexi was investigating that had expanded to Africa?

Ye Yuwei pondered, then switched off the laptop and took her phone out.
