Chapter 233: Chapter 233: Can’t Take It_1

Han Yingnai squatted on the side, her expression shifting from disillusionment to a mixture of excitement and regret.

This girl clearly regretted not being a man!

Gong Xiaoqiao truly hated how well she understood her thoughts!

"Gu Hangshen, let go!" He clung to her like a fiery ball, and Gong Xiaoqiao pushed him away, grinding her teeth in frustration.

At first, he refused to let go, but since he was sick and lacked the strength, he was eventually wrestled back into bed by Gong Xiaoqiao.

Then, looking at his expression, his brows were furrowed so tightly they could clamp a pencil.

"Xiaoqiao, just let him hold you, what’s the harm! How pitiful!" Han Yingnai’s eyes brimmed with tears as she looked at her.

The corner of Gong Xiaoqiao’s mouth twitched, "Sorry, don’t forget I’m still giving him the cold shoulder!"

"Such a beautiful man and you’re willing to give him the cold shoulder! Xiaoqiao, you’re too..."

"What, squandering a natural treasure? Indeed, such a big iceberg really is a natural wonder! Too bad I can’t afford to indulge!"

Han Yingnai also realized that their "cold war" was probably mostly because of the beautiful man, "Hmm, most icebergs are somewhat tsundere! There’s only one best way to deal with them! Pin them down on the bed!"

Gong Xiaoqiao internally complained; maybe that worked for garden-variety tsunderes, but Gu Hangshen’s level of indifference was such that even if she stripped and pounced on him, it wouldn’t make a difference.

Utterly outrageous!

Gu Hangshen felt as if a mountain were pressing heavily on his chest, making his breathing as agonizingly sharp as needle pricks.

His body alternated between hot and cold flashes, sticky and clammy, his throat parched as if a fire were burning wildly within.

He seemed to be caught in a dark vortex, as if a fierce maw were about to swallow him whole. Despite using all his strength to struggle, he only sank deeper, powerless to escape.

This rare feeling of helplessness and fear almost broke him...

What pained him the most was the gradual fading of a blurry figure in his mind, unattainable and elusive...

Then there was a coolness on his forehead, which soothed the burning heat as if he were traversing a desert...

In a haze, there was a spring that quenched his thirst, and he felt the familiar presence drawing close. Just as he caught hold of her, she left immediately.

"Wife..."

He murmured anxiously in a hoarse voice.

Gong Xiaoqiao looked at Gu Hangshen’s pained expression and was taken aback.

Han Yingnai was also shocked and blurted out, "He just called for his wife! Could it be... could it be that you’re being kept by him?"

Gong Xiaoqiao glanced at Han Yingnai; after all, she hadn’t planned to hide it from her.

For those she trusted, she never kept her guard up.

"I am indeed being kept by him!" Gong Xiaoqiao answered.

Han Yingnai was astonished, but Gong Xiaoqiao added quickly, "However, legally speaking, we are married!"

"Eh?"

"We’re married."

Han Yingnai was petrified, "Such a perfect seme ended up being ruined by a woman like you!!!"

The corner of Gong Xiaoqiao’s mouth twitched.

"Enough, give me that unused cool mat from your bed to use!"

"Oh!" Nana might look careless, but she was actually very sensible; she knew when to gossip and when absolutely not to.

Luckily it was summer, and it was rather cool to sleep on the ground.

Gong Xiaoqiao laid out a layer of foam puzzle mats and then spread the cool mat over it.

Looking up at the person in the bed, she wondered if he would revert to that indifferent demeanor when he woke up.

The next morning, Gong Xiaoqiao was awakened by the heat.

She felt as if she were in a furnace, with ceaseless heat attacking her neck, and her limbs as though they were shackled by hot irons, leaving her unable to move.
