Chapter 56

side as they discovered Su Kexin paying her respects to Cheng Ruor. This meant their magazine sales wouldn't just increase a little bit, it was going to double!Back then, they were heroes. Promotion...Just when Su Keqin was worried, a low and hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind her. Immediately afterward, Su Keqin's body felt light, and when she realized it, she was sitting on Gu Chi's lap.

"Gu Chi…" Su Keixin was startled.

Gu Zhi watched Su Ke Xin in his arms, her face pale and her limbs cold. His heart felt like something was piercing through it. He wiped away the tears that had fallen from the corner of her eyes and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'll wait with you."

A simple sentence, yet it was heavy and warm, allowing Su Kexin's flustered heart to slowly calm down.

Su Ke Xin suddenly felt extremely tired. This time, she finally didn't stubbornly resist Gu Chi's embrace. She just nodded and snuggled into his arms, staring blankly at the "Surgery in Progress" light above the operating room door.

Gu Chi felt the soft body in his arms leaning against him, a distinctly feminine fragrance wafting over. He suddenly felt that his heart, which had been cold and rigid for ten years, seemed to soften ever so slightly in one place.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Keqin finally saw the "Operating" light turn on. It flickered red with a click.

Su Keqin immediately leaped from Gu Chi's arms and rushed to the operating room door, just in time to see the doctor and nurse come out with weary faces.

"Doctor, my, my mother…" Su Kexin was at a loss for words right now.

The doctor looked at Su Keixin and smiled faintly, "Congratulations, Miss Su, your mother's surgery was very successful. It is estimated that she will wake up tomorrow."

Is Mommy able to wake up

Su Ke Xin only felt that, in this instant, the tightly strung nerves finally relaxed. She wanted to laugh and thank the doctor, but suddenly, her knee went soft, and she fell to the ground.

What awaited her was not a cold floor, but a warm and solid chest.

As soon as Su Keixin looked up, she saw Gu Chi's handsome figure.

His wheelchair rolled up just in time, steadying her.

Gu Chi's always cool face was now tinged with a faint smile. He covered Su Ke Xin's head with his large hand, gently rubbing her soft hair, and whispered softly, "That's great."

Three simple words, yet they caused Su Kexin's tears, which she had been holding back, to flow freely.

Su Ke Xin's chest swelled with a sudden rush of softness and joy. She reached out and embraced Gu Chi's neck, bursting into tears of laughter, "Yes, it's great, really great..."

When Gu Chi was having dinner with Su Kexin, he received several calls about work.

Su Ke Xin knew Gu Chi had wasted half a day because of her, feeling a bit embarrassed. She took the initiative to say, "You go back to work. Mom is here, I can keep her company."

Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin, watching her because she ate too quickly, there was soy sauce on the corner of her mouth, reaching out to wipe it for her.

"I'm going to leave now. I'll be back tomorrow," he said softly. "If you need anything, tell me right away."

Su Keixin nodded, but Gu Chi didn't get up. She frowned, "What's wrong"

Gu Zhi looked thoughtfully at Su Kexin, casually bringing his finger that had been smeared with soy sauce from the corner of Su Kexin's mouth to his own lips and licking it clean. "No, I was just thinking, how sincere was that nod of yours just now."

Su Ke Xin saw Gu Chi's action of licking his fingers, her head buzzing with a sound, she didn't even hear what he said.

This, this...isn't this a bit too intimate

And if someone else did this, Su Kexin would probably think it was unhygienic. But paradoxically, when Gu Chi did it, his slender fingers and thin lips somehow created a seductive pose.

"Are you serious" she asked, her face flushed, her eyes avoiding his.r, Gu Chi shouted at her. 。The man who moments ago stood unflinching with a gun pointed at him, now had cold sweat soaking his whole body. 。Heaven knows how terrified he was when he turned his head a...
