Night Fire Lingering

Chapter 193 Zhizhi, let's have a baby.

Wen Yan shook her head without hesitation: "No."

She wasn't interested in his job.

Moreover, many of the Gu Group's collaborations are subject to confidentiality obligations, so knowing too much is not a good thing.

A smile flashed in Gu Yanci's eyes: "Then I won't look."

Wen Yan looked at him with suspicion.

Was it her imagination? Why did she feel that Gu Yanci was very satisfied with her choice not to watch?

Before Wen Yan could figure it out, her soft lips were already captured by another person's softness.

The air is drawn away, and the brain quickly loses its ability to think.

When Wen Yan regained consciousness, she was already pinned down on the sofa by the man, and the tightly sealed document in the brown paper bag was casually tossed onto the coffee table.

With a loud "smack!", Wen Yan was startled and instinctively looked over.

The next moment, the man grabbed her chin and pulled it back, and the tenderness that had been on her collarbone returned to her lips, where he bit her hard.

"Not paying attention!"

He was talking while his hands were all over his body.

“Gu, Gu Yanci…” Wen Yan grabbed his messy hand, “I haven’t taken a shower yet.”

"It's okay, I didn't either."

Wen Yan widened her eyes and reached out to push him away: "That's even more unacceptable!"

"..." The man stopped and looked at her with a complicated expression.

She despises herself.

But I dislike him even more.

Wen Yan realized her bias and her well-known double standards, and awkwardly explained, "I want to wash them all... I want them all."

—I'm not looking down on you, I look down on myself!

Thinking of the weariness in the man's voice on the phone, she felt a pang of sympathy.

Two seconds later, he added, "Or, in the bathroom... that's also... possible."

"Oh?"

A look of surprise flashed across Gu Yanci's eyes. He looked down at her with a leisurely air, scrutinizing her carefully with a hint of mockery.

Wen Yan felt uneasy under his gaze and covered his eyes with her hand: "I'm talking nonsense! What I meant was, we're vegetarian!"

Gu Yanci scoffed, "Do I look like I'm not very bright?"

Only someone with a faulty brain would agree to your vegetarianism!

Just then, the ringing of a cell phone interrupted their playful banter.

Gu Yanci glanced at the caller ID, answered it irritably, and hummed in response a few seconds later.

After hanging up, Gu Yanci rolled over and pulled Wen Yan onto his lap, his hands still restlessly pinching her waist.

He asked the person in his arms, "Lou Qi has organized a party tonight, want to go play together?"

Wen Yan's eyes lit up: "Then you go have fun, I'll go keep Bei Qing company!"

Gu Yanci: "..."

They really gave her a chance!

Gu Yanci couldn't help but pinch her cheek, suppressing the urge to grit his teeth and speak, but his words were still full of danger as he said, "Wen Zhizhi, you know that what they've set up isn't exactly a clean scheme, and you're really letting me go like this?"

"Then I'll install a GoPro on you?"

"..."

Wen Yan brushed away the man's mischievous hand, tilted her head and smiled gently: "Mr. Gu, it depends on your self-awareness. If you dare to cheat and I find out, you're finished!"

Men are something you can't control; Wen Yan knew this a long time ago.

Gu Yanci was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

"I'm going to take a shower, then I'll take you to the hospital." Gu Yanci kissed Wen Yan, helped her sit on the sofa, turned around to get her slippers, and then went upstairs.

Wen Yan was somewhat surprised.

He really doesn't plan to do it anymore?

When did the hungry wolf change sex?

Wen Yan felt something was wrong the more she thought about it.

Although Gu Yanci acted normally, she always felt that something was wrong with the man, or rather, that he was hiding negative emotions from her.

Wen Yan walked into the bedroom, and the sound of running water came from the bathroom.

"Zhizhi?"

Suddenly, the sound of water stopped.

Gu Yanci's questioning voice came from inside.

Wen Yan didn't expect that he would notice her just because she was standing outside for a short while.

"What's wrong?" Wen Yan replied.

The bathroom door opened from the inside, and steam billowed out.

"Looking for me?" The man's eyes were misty.

"Ah..." Wen Yan hesitated a little, "Gu Yanci, are you a little unhappy?"

Gu Yanci didn't know how she felt; she felt a mix of bitterness and a sense of fullness.

He thought he had hidden it well, but she had actually noticed.

Does this mean that he holds a more important place in her heart than before?

Gu Yanci stared at her intently, and a few seconds later, his body acted faster than his mind, pulling the woman into the bathroom.

"what--!"

Wen Yan was startled.

Before she could react, he had already kissed her.

"Hey! Didn't you say... take me to the hospital? And... also abandon the building?"

"No rush."

Emotions surged forth like water breaking through a mountain valley.

Gu Yanci's movements were intense and somewhat urgent, which made Wen Yan sense his anxiety.

"Gu Yanci, what's wrong?" Wen Yan frowned and patted his shoulder, wanting to dodge, but the ground was slippery and she was afraid of falling.

"Zhizhi, let's have a baby too, okay?" the man asked in a low, husky voice.

"……Um?"

Wen Yan was completely captivated by it and unable to think straight until the end, when she vaguely remembered that sentence.

but……

But in the end, didn't he still... take precautions?

Although it only happened once, Wen Yan was so exhausted that her body felt weak.

Gu Yanci patiently served her, wiping her body, dressing her, and carrying her to the car, providing her with a thoughtful, all-inclusive service.

"Gu Yanci, is something bothering you?" Wen Yan had just been thinking, "Is it related to Brother Jingzhou?"

He mentioned Gu Jingzhou during the phone call earlier.

Gu Yanci started the McLaren and casually said, "His death anniversary is coming soon, I just remembered."

Thinking of Gu Jingzhou's untimely death, Wen Yan's mood also sank.

"How is Luo Beiqing's health?" Gu Yanci changed the subject.

"The baby is healthy, but she herself has had severe morning sickness and has lost a lot of weight."

While waiting at the traffic light, Gu Yanci quickly looked Wen Yan up and down.

Wen Yan is already very thin. If she gets pregnant and experiences morning sickness, she'll become even thinner... No, that would be too hard on her.

Gu Yanci quickly dismissed those fleeting thoughts.

-

The private room was brightly lit and filled with young men and women dancing and reveling under the lights.

"Young Master Gu!"

"Young Master Gu is here!"

As soon as Gu Yanci entered, everyone stopped to greet him.

He raised his hand to indicate that he had heard them, but did not respond to them, and went straight to the sofa in the corner.

Lou Qi poured himself a drink, and the beautiful woman next to him who was pouring him drinks tried to touch him several times, but Lou Qi did not respond.

Gu Yanci was used to this and sat down next to him, starting to drink as well.

"Who was drinking with whom?" Lou Qi said irritably.

He was in a bad mood today, so he organized a gathering and asked Gu Yanci to come and keep him company. As a result, Gu Yanci started drinking as soon as he arrived.

Gu Yanci glanced at him, too lazy to reply.

Lou Qi was the only one who knew what Gu Yan had investigated in Nancheng, and couldn't help but say speechlessly, "No, you and Wen Yan have been married for so many years, what are you still so anxious about? I feel like you're feeling guilty. Did you do something to betray Wen Yan and are afraid that she will turn against you if she finds out?"
