What was Gu Jiangxin talking about?

Start from the beginning
                                    

“Tired?”

Walking over, he dared not even reach out to touch her.

Aunty Lin had said that she was the most fragile in her first three months.

She had always been weak. Even having milk could upset her stomach.

She had stopped having anything that was fishy tasting.

The doctor had also mentioned that she should avoid being too active even.

Was she tired from just standing up now?

“Are you legs tired or swollen?”

Recalling what the doctor had said, Huo Sishen was worried.

Gu Shishi was just rambling with the system and then went onto calculation her health progress. She was startled by the abrupt man’s voice.

She shuddered and turned a little pale.

She opened her eyes after a little while, patted herself on her chest and said, “You walk so lightly that I can’t even hear you. Startles me all the time.”

Seeing that Gu Shishi was looking somewhat pale, Huo Sishen was very nervous. “Let me have the doctor come over.”

“No, no, no.” Gu Shishi sat up right away and grabbed his shirt. “I’m just lying down.”

When had she ever laid down half way through painting?

Huo Sishen looked at the unfinished goldfish on her drawing paper and frowned.

She didn’t want him to worry?

“Then you keep laying down.”

He turned back around and stopped her from getting up.

“I’ll stay and keep you company. You sleep.”

He patted her on her arm and stroked her hair.

Gu Shishi nodded and closed her eyes.

A second later, when she was just about to dose off, she felt that something was off.

Wait a second. What was she doing early? She was calculating how much she would need, then finish her painting, then go for a walk.

She wasn’t going to bed!

[Male lead’s fondness increased by 5%!]

That notification made Gu Shishi’s lips curved upward.

Alright!

If the boss wanted her to go to bed, she would go to bed!

These assignments from the system were so darn easy now.

She could earn fondness from laying there. She had already reached the epitome of being a salted fish!

Middle of the night, in front of Shuiyue Mansion.

Gu Jiangxin just got out of his car and arrived home smelling like alcohol.

“Oh, dear, you drank again? Let me get you some hangover soup.”

Dong Xiaotong, the secretary turned new Mrs. Gu, quickly walked up to him.

She helped him take off his suit in person and undid his tie.

Gu Jiangxin’s anger was half gone.

He sat and enjoyed the relaxing massage from his young wife and sipped the honey hangover soup that she had made for him.

He might not have been very happy the moment he stepped inside the door but the way he looked at Dong Xiaotong was tender.

“Home is always the best.”
