Lifen felt her eyes become drowsy as she tried to hide from the rays of sunlight that slipped into the room landing on her face. "I want to see you in my dreams."
Yusheng smiled and pulled her closer. In his mind he thought. 'Let's hope it's a good one this time.'
Gu Bojing didnt know what to say to Xiao Ai to make her speak to him and it made him feel more anxious. He felt as if whatever must have made them fight was related to him or Littel Fool.
He crawled in on the other side of the bed and adjusted her hair which had fallen in places.
"You have bruises on your face." He silently spoke.
Still no response.
"Will you be going to work tomorrow? I had my assistant hire us a cook. What should I tell her to make?"
Xiao Ai opened her eyes instantly and sat up to match his height. "You hired a female cook?"
Gu Bojing smiled and softly patted her back. "Now you are talking. The male cook will be coming in tonight. What would you like to eat?"
She smiled faintly and placed her head on his shoulders. Almost in a whisper she spoke. "I am sorry."
He patted her head and smiled, his eyes turning misty. "You did nothing to apologise for except if Mrs Gu has done something wrong again."
The amusement in his voice was evident and it made her heart ache even more. "I have done a lot things to apologise for and we know it. Mr Gu, thank you and I am sorry."
"You sound like you want to divorce me..."
"I wouldnt dare."
He felt at ease. As long as she said it. As long as she would still be with him, he was fine with it. He didnt care who was in her heart.
Sometimes he felt as though it matters to him who was in her heart but most times be realised he didnt care. As long as she wanted to be with him. As long as she wanted to be here. He didnt care if it was selfish, he just wanted her here. With him. In his arms.
She pulled up to look at his face. Touching a side of it with her hands, she whispered. "How are you so good looking?"
He smiled, his perfect set of teeth on display. "I am sure Mrs Gu has met men more gorgeous than I am."
She nodded. "Indeed I have. But in my eyes, you are the most perfect. In my eyes you are the most good looking and Mr Gu..."
His hands shook as his armpit started to itch. He didn't know what she wanted to say but he couldnt help but worry.
"Of all the men I have met, in my heart, I like you the most."
Perhaps because his heart had felt too much, but at this moment he was numb with it. He didnt feel anything except the feeling of numbness that shook through him.
In her heart, he was there?
In her heart, she likes him the most?
"No matter what you see, hear, or dream of, remember that in my heart.." she placed his sweaty palm on her breast. "There is only you. You and you alone."
In his dreams...?
He forced a smile but when he didnt succeed at the attempt, he stopped and pulled her for a hug. He just didnt know what to say to ber right now. Though he always had words on the tip of his tongue, he was speechless right now.
"I know that your silence is your likeness for me. I know it all. I know just how much you cherish me. I know...I know it all..."
He hugged her even tighter. In a rasp voice he spoke. "If it's meant to be it's meant to be."
Xiao Ai nodded. Right. If its meant to be..its meant to be.
But if it isnt meant to be...she smirked...she would make it meant to be.
That she would.
Professor Ku had already decided to let Xiao Ai be since she had an important project on her hand. Because of Xiao Ai, their department was getting more patients, although most of the people only came by to see if Xiao Ai was just as shameless as she appeared to be. The little womans gossip caused a lot of controversies and it was a great advertisement for their hospital and department. Even though her behaviour wasnt quite acceptable as a doctor at such reputable hospital, none of the higher ups had said anything about it yet. He suspected it was because of her background. If Xiao Ai wanted to leave care medical Centre, she could easily get a job somewhere else. Gu hospital and the Millitary hospital had already tried to recruit her personally and Mo Corporation had the MoHan Hospital in the east of the city.
He was about to call Xiao Ai and tell her to take a few days off when he got a direct call from the office of the Vice President.
