Chapter 51: Sitting on His lap

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After resting for a while and feeling that her leg didn’t hurt that bad, Yan Xi got up and went to the dining room downstairs to eat.

She grabbed the handrails of the stairs and slowly walked down. After taking a few steps, she saw Gu Shen sitting at the dining table and immediately froze on the spot.

Why was Gu Shen still here?

Recalling the awkward moment last night, Yan Xi stopped in her tracks. Her legs had not fully recovered, and Gu Shen was always suspicious. If she went up, he might notice something unusual.

As she hesitated, Gu Shen’s gaze landed on her, looking at her carefully.

“What are you waiting for? Come and eat.”

Yan Xi had to agree. She forced herself to walk over and sit opposite him.

The servant brought over a plate of black porridge. Yan Xi scooped one scoopful and pretended to ask casually, “Why haven’t you gone to the office?”

Hearing this, Gu Shen looked up and his cold gaze fixed on her for a few seconds.

After a while, he replied, “I’m free today.”

“Okay.” Yan Xi nodded obediently, but she did not believe it at all. She didn’t believe a workaholic like Gu Shen would have free time just as she wouldn’t believe it when a shopaholic said she didn’t like shopping.

She was lost in thought, so she did not notice how hot the black porridge was. The moment the boiling hot liquid touched her esophagus, she started coughing violently.

“Cough, cough!” Yan Xi’s face turned red.

When Xiaoyue saw this, she quickly took out the napkin for her. At the same time, Yan Xi stood up, wanting to grab the water on the dining table.

Although the water wasn’t far from her, the moment she stood up, she suddenly felt a stinging pain in her legs. The acupuncture points she tested on herself were like ants right now chewing on her thigh.

She sat back down before she could let out a scream.

Yan Xi clenched her fists and tried to suppress the pain. Her face suddenly turned pale and cold sweat broke out on her back.

Why did it start to hurt again? She recalled the acupuncture points she had tested on herself yesterday and did not know what went wrong.

Across from her, Gu Shen was observing her every move. His gaze finally landed on Yan Xi’s lap.

“What happened to your leg?”

Yan Xi raised her head in panic. The moment she met Gu Shen’s deep eyes, she shuddered. She quickly calmed down and said softly, “It’s just a little numb.”

Gu Shen obviously did not believe her. He put down the utensils in his hand and looked straight at Yan Xi.

“If your legs are numb, you should stand up and walk. Sitting there is gonna make it worse.”

It was impossible for Yan Xi to walk right now. She pouted. “Walking is exhausting. It’ll be fine after a while.”

Gu Shen’s index finger landed on the table and he gently knocked twice, looking unhappy. He gestured to Xiaoyue, who was beside him. “Help Madam stand up.”

Yan Xi was helpless. She gritted her teeth and stood up. Her legs hurt badly as if she was walking on steel needles. Every step she took hurt like a knife was stabbing her feet. Yan Xi did not know that her face was as pale as paper at this moment. It was obviously not a sign of feeling numb.

Gu Shen frowned even more. Just as he was about to ask her to sit down, she stumbled and fell towards him. Without hesitation, he subconsciously reached out to hold her. His tone was surprisingly gentle and soft. “Silly girl. Don’t you remember how to walk?”

Yan Xi was stunned. When she came back to her senses, she realized that she was sitting on Gu Shen’s lap with one hand on between his legs.

“I didn’t do it on purpose. It’s just that my legs are really numb.” Yan Xi smiled awkwardly, but she had no intention of getting up. Her hand remained there for a long time, as if she was doing that on purpose.

He said in a hoarse voice, “Let me help you up.”

Gu Shen moved her naughty hand away and hinted at Xiaoyue and Xiaolan to come over and help.

In the end, Yan Xi held onto the edge of the table and stood up wobbly.

She smiled sweetly. “Hubby, look. I told you my legs were just numb. They are much better now.”

“Raise your legs.” Gu Shen ignored her words, his voice firm and commanding.

Yan Xi subconsciously hid her legs. She was wearing a nightgown that was very loose. If Gu Shen knew about this, he would definitely not let her carry out acupuncture on herself anymore given his character.

All her previous efforts would be in vain..
