To seduce her

"Gao Yuchuan!"

A familiar female voice came from a distance. Gao Yuchuan was stunned. His already tense nerves became even more tense at this moment.

He looked up in surprise, his gaze traveling across the entire ward, straight to the source of the sound.

Shen Yaochu was just coming in from the ward door and running towards him.

Her figure gradually became clearer until she stood in front of him.

Shen Yaochu's hair was a little messy and her face was covered with dust, but it couldn't hide her fair and beautiful face.

Her eyes were red and she looked up at him.

Gao Yuchuan stood there in a daze, and for a moment he even forgot to react.

The two looked at each other, and at that moment, time seemed to freeze.

Shen Yaochu called his name but didn't say anything else.

Gao Yuchuan's Adam's apple slid up and down: "You, didn't you leave?"

Gao Yuchuan's voice was hoarse, and it was clear that he was still angry, but his tone was full of relief.

When he learned that Shen Yaochu and Assistant Fang went to the Yan family's ancestral home to stop Mu Yian, his heart almost couldn't bear it.

He couldn't accept losing Shen Yaochu again.

He had experienced this kind of pain too many times and he couldn't bear it anymore.

Fortunately, Shen Yaochu is fine.

Even though his body was covered in dust, Shen Yaochu was still safe and healthy.

As soon as Gao Yuchuan finished speaking, Shen Yaochu suddenly took half a step forward and hugged him without hesitation.

The sudden, unique breath belonging to Shen Yaochu invaded Gao Yuchuan's chest for the first time in a long time.

Gao Yuchuan's body froze and he could only maintain this posture, wrapped in her embrace.

Gao Yuchuan's body seemed to be instantly injected with energy, and his fatigue and weakness gradually dissipated.

……

The nurse saw this scene when she knocked on the door.

The man had a broad back, slightly hunched, and allowed the woman to hold him with her head tilted up. The light from above shone on the two of them, casting a halo of light and outlining the outline of their embrace.

only……

The nurse was shocked when she saw Gao Yuchuan's hands hanging down.

A cold gaze swept across the nurse's face, and she shuddered unconsciously.

Uh, she just came in to check on them, she really didn't mean to disturb them...

"Mr. Gao, your hand..."

Shen Yaochu was suddenly interrupted by the nurse and a trace of unnaturalness flashed across her face.

She quickly let go of Gao Yuchuan and looked down at the back of Gao Yuchuan's hand.

Blood was oozing out from the needle holes on the back of the hand, which was shocking to see.

Shen Yaochu frowned, stretched out her hand, and pressed the back of Gao Yuchuan's hand: "Gao Yuchuan, go lie down."

"..."

……

Seeing Gao Yuchuan giving her the infusion again, Shen Yaochu's heart finally settled down a little.

Thinking that he had misunderstood Gao Yuchuan for so long, Shen Yaochu lowered his eyes guiltily.

The atmosphere in the room was cold, and Shen Yao didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment.

She thought for a moment and asked, "Where were you going just now?"

"Not going anywhere." Gao Yuchuan lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "Take a walk."

"..." Shen Yaochu knew that he was angry with her, so she said in a gentle voice, "You just had surgery, you need to rest and recuperate, so don't take a walk for now."

Gao Yuchuan leaned on the bed, staring at her with his deep eyes: "Whether I take a rest or a walk, do you still care about me as someone who is leaving?"

"...I'm sorry." Shen Yaochu's eyes, which had finally returned to normal, turned red again: "I was too self-righteous."

Perhaps it was Shen Yaochu's sudden apology that surprised Gao Yuchuan. He was slightly startled, his dark eyes slightly sank: "Hmm?"

"Actually, when I came back to Lukang from the mountain, I was planning to go back to the Gao family. I was looking forward to seeing you, BoBo, and CiCi. I thought how happy you would be if you knew I was still alive!" Shen Yaochu lowered her eyes, her gaze wandering on the ground, as if looking for the right words to explain to Gao Yuchuan: "But when I returned to the old house, I saw 'you' and Xia Yizhu together. You looked... very close."

"Intimate?!" Gao Yuchuan's face flashed with surprise: "Me and Xia Yizhu?"

"Well... I saw you hugging and kissing." Shen Yaochu's chest rose and fell: "My heart was really in a mess. I was so scared. I was afraid that you would find a new lover. I was afraid that I would come back too late and everything would be irreversible."

"Wait." Gao Yuchuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Tell me, what do you mean by Xia Yizhu and I look very close?"

"You, you listen to me..." Shen Yaochu's voice trembled unconsciously: "I was afraid that my return would cause you trouble and embarrassment, and I was even more afraid that I would not be able to control my emotions, so I kept hesitating."

"Later, I mustered up the courage to come back to find you, and I saw you drag her into the car again. I saw you hugging and kissing again."

"I saw her taking care of you when you were drunk or sick, all night long."

"She understands what the Yan family ancestral home means to you even better than I do."

"I know she looks like me, so I mistakenly thought you were with her to relieve the pain and heal your wounds."

"You also asked me if I knew how you got through that time. I thought you got better because of her company and healing."

"So..." Shen Yaochu choked and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Gao Yuchuan said in a stern voice: "So you think that I treated her as your substitute and was with her?"

"Ah."

Gao Yuchuan's Adam's apple slid up and down: "What about now?"

"I just realized that I misunderstood everything." Shen Yaochu reached out and tugged at the sleeve of Gao Yuchuan's hospital gown, as if seeking comfort, or asking for his forgiveness: "The one who has been with Xia Yizhu has always been Gao Yushan, not you. I made a mistake..."

Gao Yuchuan looked at the woman in front of him with deep eyes.

"Why don't you just come to me? Why don't you just ask me?"

"I... I don't want all three of us to be embarrassed." Shen Yaochu clenched her fingers slightly: "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong..."

"Shen Yaochu." Gao Yuchuan called her in a deep voice and sneered. His cold eyes seemed to be extremely disappointed with Shen Yaochu: "Is your trust in me so fragile?"

"I'm really sorry, Gao Yuchuan..."

Shen Yaochu still wanted to apologize, but Gao Yuchuan's eyes looking directly at her made her feel unfamiliar.

"Shen Yaochu, you can leave if you want to, and come back if you want to. My existence to you is nothing more than the father of BoBo and CiCi. When you miss the children, you can come and take a look. If you have your own things to do, you can leave without looking back."

Gao Yuchuan's voice gradually became lower and calmer, and no emotion could be heard.

"My heart is not as strong as you think. I can't bear disappointment again and again." He lowered his head slightly, not knowing whether he was responding to Shen Yaochu's apology or talking to himself: "I want to be with you for the rest of my life, but you are always preparing to leave."

"There is no communication between us. There is a misunderstanding. You will always have the option of leaving me." Gao Yuchuan's joy turned into despair with his naked eyes: "You can live without me at any time in your world, right?"

"..."
