Gu Qingcheng subconsciously replied, “I sighed because I thought of something that made me unhappy. You…”
Her words abruptly stopped, and she froze in surprise.
“Tell me, what’s making you unhappy?” came the low, magnetic voice.
Gu Qingcheng turned around in astonishment and surprise.
Not far away, a tall man’s figure appeared, bathed in the morning sun that bestowed upon him a halo of divinity, like a celestial being descended to earth, aloof and otherworldly.
His narrow, phoenix-like eyes seemed to contain all the tenderness in the world as they gazed at her, causing her heart to skip a beat and a wave of emotion to spread through her body.
She asked in astonishment, “Why are you here?”
Bathed in the morning light, Huo Sicheng, with his handsome and elegant demeanor, smiled faintly, half cold and half doting.
“I followed you.” He had already approached Gu Qingcheng, taking her slightly cold hands into his, warming them with his own.
When Huo Sicheng took her hands, it seemed as if his warmth enveloped her entirely, warming not just her hands but also her heart with a sweet thrill. “Didn’t I tell you that I really dislike you investigating and following me?”
She deliberately frowned and glared at Huo Sicheng, yet before he could respond, her lips curved into a smile, no longer reproachful: “But since you admitted it yourself, I’ll let it go for your honesty.”
Huo Sicheng, who had just braced for a possible outburst from Gu Qingcheng, relaxed when he saw her smiling joyfully, realizing she wouldn’t be angry with him.
He brought her hands to his lips and kissed them gently, his voice soft as he asked, “Tell me, what’s bothering you?”
Gu Qingcheng gazed at Huo Sicheng’s sharply defined face, tracing the details of his features with her eyes, etching them into her soul.
She didn’t hide anything and told Huo Sicheng, “Since yesterday, you haven’t contacted me or looked for me. I thought you didn’t care about me, so I was mad at you.”
Huo Sicheng was taken aback, never having considered that Gu Qingcheng would think that way about him.
“I care about you,” he hurriedly assured her, pulling her into his embrace, “I care about you a lot, very, very much.”
Feeling Huo Sicheng’s sturdy chest and hearing his reassuring words, Gu Qingcheng’s heart raced, and her cheeks flushed.
“Really care about me?” She looked up at him, her heart fluttering as she gazed into his starry eyes, and playfully chided, “If you really care, why didn’t you call or message me?”
“Today is the final of the Peach Lotus Cup, and I didn’t want to disturb your dance practice,” Huo Sicheng replied, kissing her lips gently, “I arrived at Royal Dance this evening, but I waited for you at the school gate. Then I followed your car to the hospital. This is where Gu Tianhao is hospitalized, and I knew you must be dealing with something. I didn’t want to disturb you, just waited for you to finish.”
Hearing this, Gu Qingcheng felt warmed.
He had been by her side all this time, never ignoring her.
She tenderly held his face and kissed him on the lips, “Considering you’ve waited for me for so long, I’ll invite you to Royal Dance’s cafeteria. After today’s final, I’ll treat you to a fancy dinner as a reward for your patience.”
Huo Sicheng softly agreed, “Okay.”
What they ate wasn’t important; being with Gu Qingcheng was all that mattered to him.
As Gu Qingcheng sat in Huo Sicheng’s car, she watched it slowly leave the hospital. Thinking of Gu Tianhao’s pained state, her expression grew complicated.
“Hubby…”
Huo Sicheng’s hand, holding Gu Qingcheng’s, tightened slightly, “Yes?”
“Today, Gu Tianhao woke up,” Gu Qingcheng turned from looking out the window to face Huo Sicheng, “To be precise, he woke up twice today.”
Huo Sicheng said nothing, just gently looked at her.
He knew she hadn’t finished speaking.
“The first time Gu Tianhao woke up, Chu He went to see him,” Gu Qingcheng looked directly at Huo Sicheng, “I arranged for someone to text me about the hospital’s situation. I knew but didn’t pay much attention.”
“But I don’t know why Bai Si was at the hospital, and it was she who contacted me saying Chu He was slandering me in front of Gu Tianhao.” She narrowed her eyes thinking of Bai Si’s ferocity during the fight, and continued, “I don’t care much about Chu He’s schemes against me; she’s done it too many times since we were young.”
“Since Gu Tianhao was severely injured, Bai Si has been going to the hospital every day,” Huo Sicheng informed her, “She’s even been looking for famous doctors to save him.”
Gu Qingcheng was stunned, “Ever since I knew about their love square, I’ve felt uneasy about them.”
She then excitedly told Huo Sicheng, “Just now, Bai Si and Chu He got into a fight. Surprisingly, Bai Si, who seemed so weak, fought fiercely, overpowering Chu He. You should have seen it; Chu He was in a sorry state.”
“Bai Si is not weak, but rather a woman with deep scheming,” Huo Sicheng said, his eyes solely on Gu Qingcheng, implying, “Among the four Bai Si, Qin Chong, Gu Tianhao, and Chu He—Bai Si is the most difficult to deal with.” “How could that be?” Gu Qingcheng was surprised, “Bai Si seems so harmless.”
Huo Sicheng asked her, “Have you noticed that your memories of Bai Si are very limited, almost nonexistent unless she contacts you?”
Gu Qingcheng nodded, “True, if Bai Si doesn’t call me, I almost forget she exists. ”
“If you observed her, you’d realize she’s very low-key, not simply unassuming, but deliberately concealing herself to the point of being invisible,” Huo Sicheng remarked meaningfully, “Such a person is like a venomous snake lurking in the grass, ready to strike lethally, and the victim won’t even suspect her.”
“Is she that cunning?” Gu Qingcheng was incredulous, “She doesn’t seem the type.”
“You don’t know her methods,” Huo Sicheng’s eyes flickered with a hint of anger, “When I was young, Bai Si made me suffer a lot in silence. She’s more skilled in scheming than Chu He; it’s just that she’s not hostile towards you. If she were, you’d definitely have another formidable opponent.”
Gu Qingcheng looked intently at Huo Sicheng, recalling her past life.
As Huo Sicheng described, Bai Si was almost invisible. She had only met Bai Si a few times.
In this life, since the engagement night, when she broke off with Qin Jun, Qin Chong confronted her, but Bai Si, as Qin Jun’s mother, never spoke a word to her.
Bai Si, being so invisible, could easily eliminate someone if she wished.
She asked Huo Sicheng, “How do you know so much about Bai Si?”
