How could it not hurt when covered in wounds?
Yet, from beginning to end, she never uttered a word of her pain to him!
Such enduring strength!
Such an unyielding spirit that came from deep within the bones!
Such stubbornness to never let others glimpse her wounds!
Gu Qingchen knew all too well that she was this kind of person!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Gu, Master Gu is waiting for you downstairs," the bodyguard said.
Gu Qingchen looked at Bei Ran, who was not sleeping deeply, and gently laid her on the bed to rest. Since her back was injured, he had her lie face down to avoid touching her wounds as much as possible.
He went downstairs and saw Gu Bohan sitting in the living room.
"Tonight was to host a dinner with Deputy Mayor Shen. Qingchen, how could you just leave?" Gu Bohan chastised sternly.
Gu Qingchen looked at the glass of water on the table. Without a word, he picked it up and quickly splashed it.
