Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 456: That Moment 1
With a bang, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Xia Yinian was startled, lost balance, and was about to fall straight down to the floor.
It looked like her face was going to be ruined from such a fall...
Suddenly, a tall figure flashed before her eyes, someone had already reached her front.
Outside, lightning flashed and the thunderous roar sounded again.
Xia Yinian instinctively let out a cry, and before she could cover her ears, a pair of warm, large palms had already landed on her ears, covering them gently but firmly.
The sound of the thunder became much softer thanks to those hands.
However, the lightning kept striking, one after another, without a pause.
Almost reflexively, she huddled in the man’s arms, seeking his protection.
Her greatest fears: darkness, thunder, and storms, all came at once.
Her abdomen was still in pain, so painful that she felt crampy, and she didn’t dare to stand up now.
The moment she tried to stand up straight, the pain worsened; all she could do was to bend over and protect her lower abdomen.
Strangely, despite the ship still rocking, once she nestled in his arms, those movements didn’t bother her at all.
He was like a towering tree standing erect between heaven and earth, with deep roots, unafraid of the wind and rain, simply unshakeable.
Hiding in his embrace, no matter how fierce the storm and thunder outside, it seemed there was no longer any sense of insecurity.
Only her abdomen was still in pain...
Suddenly, she felt lighter; Xia Yinian was picked up in his arms.
Soon, she was laid on the bed, one hand still on her stomach, and the other had grasped his wrist, trying to push him away.
Because, under this familiar scent, she knew who he was...
"Don’t scream..." This word of mine was pushed back by a sudden thunderclap.
As if terrified, she instinctively sought refuge in the man’s arms, without any thought.
Of course, if she thought it through, she would certainly not crawl into his embrace.
Gu Beicheng kept his lips tightly shut and said nothing, holding her in his arms, pressing her little head against his chest, letting one of her ears stay tightly against him.
He covered her other ear with one large palm, and his other arm circled her, not allowing her to step back even an inch.
In fact, Xia Yinian now lacked the strength to move away.
Just now, after falling off the bed and landing on the floor, her abdomen started to hurt, and the pain persisted.
She really had no strength, it hurt so much...
"What’s wrong?" During a lull in the thunder, Gu Beicheng asked in a deep voice.
She was holding her abdomen, bent over, which looked unusual.
"My abdomen..." Xia Yinian was truly in pain, sweating cold sweat, "It hurts."
Gu Beicheng actually had no experience in dealing with this kind of issue, but as she said her abdomen hurt, he rubbed it instinctively, gently.
The warmth of his palm somehow miraculously lessened the pain in her stomach.
She wondered if it was her menstruation coming on; this time, it really hurt...
