100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 470: Are You Very Regretful?

"I know I’m willful, but... I really want you to accompany me..."

Gu Hangshen sighed, the oppressive chill disappearing in an instant, transforming into endless tenderness and helpless doting, his warm palm gently tousling her soft hair.

Watching the two people snuggled together, their harmony seemed impossible for anyone to intrude upon or separate.

Lian Yi turned around and quietly left, with Leng Tou closely following her.

-

On the bluestone steps.

Leng Tou stood behind her, "Are you alright?"

"I thought I had hidden it well," Lian Yi said softly, her face full of bitterness.

Leng Tou remained silent.

In fact, she had hidden it well; if it weren’t for the incident just now, he might not have noticed, at most thinking her feelings for Gu Hangshen were gratitude and admiration.

It was only now that he realized a woman’s love for a man often starts with admiration.

Lian Yi took a deep breath, her eyes forlorn as she looked into the distance, "Originally, before I saw her, I thought I still had hope..."

Now Leng Tou’s gaze towards Xiaoqiao had changed completely.

This woman was truly not simple...

If one were to talk about the master of disguises, it had to be her.

The worry about Gu Hangshen’s attitude before coming here, and the caution towards Lian Yi just moments ago, every issue he had been concerned about hadn’t happened at all.

Without even confronting Lian Yi face-to-face, she had already made her crumble.

She had effortlessly turned the stubborn Gu Hangshen into someone wrapped around her finger.

She didn’t pretend to be strong or show indifference to Gu Hangshen’s wounds, nor did she tenderly and carefully attend to him. Instead, she did the opposite, showing complete vulnerability in front of him, letting Gu Hangshen know he wasn’t a burden to her, letting him know how much she needed him, ensuring he couldn’t bear to leave her alone, thus eliminating Gu Hangshen’s insecurity and apprehensions.

One had to say, this ingeniously executed self-deprecating strategy was perfectly timed.

It seemed he had been overly concerned; she could handle Gu Hangshen all on her own.

...

Late at night, a lone cold moon hung outside the window...

Gu Hangshen leaned against the headboard, sitting for a long time, with no warmth inside the covers.

The scent of shower gel wafted from behind him, the warm softness dispelling the loneliness and coldness, and suddenly the room took on a more inviting and cozy atmosphere.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing."

"Let’s sleep."

"Okay."

He lay down and she immediately snuggled closer.

As she leaned her cheek towards him, Gu Hangshen instinctively moved back.

"What’s wrong?" she asked, dissatisfied with his avoidance.

Gu Hangshen looked at her with a complex expression, then picked up her hand and placed it on the burned half of his face, "Here... it was burned in the explosion..."

"So, there’s no ’except’ anymore, now I... am utterly worthless."

Gu Hangshen waited tensely for a long time, only to receive her huffing and biting his cheek gently, "What, are you regretting losing that face that could charm and tempt, stir up trouble and confuse people, a face that could turn heads and captivate hearts?"

Gu Hangshen was a bit dazed, replying blankly, "No..."

Xiaoqiao snorted, "You say no! You must be thinking exactly that, but it doesn’t matter to me anymore since I can’t see now. In my eyes, Brother Shen has always been the most handsome! Since you’re not trying to ~~seduce~~ attract women, why do you care so much about your appearance?"
