Mr Gu’s First Doting Marriage
Chapter 961 - Chapter 961 Chapter 962 Insomnia

Chapter 961: Chapter 962: Insomnia Chapter 961: Chapter 962: Insomnia Because Gu Qichen had fallen asleep on her bed.

Actually, since tonight, when Xia Yangyang saw Gu Qichen, she could tell.

Gu Qichen seemed very tired.

His eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn’t slept for a long time.

And at this moment, Gu Qichen lay on her bed without removing his clothes, his body slightly curled up, without a blanket covering him.

Even his shoes were still on his feet, hanging idly off the edge of the bed.

He lay on his side like a child, yet embracing his own body.

Xia Yangyang didn’t know where she had read it.

People who slept in such a posture often felt insecure inside.

Somehow, this caused her heart to ache.

Xia Yangyang walked in on tiptoes, making no sound.

She stopped when she reached Gu Qichen.

She silently watched the man lying on the bed and found herself unable to bear waking him up.

Gu Qichen seemed to be in a deep sleep.

Even his breathing was heavier than usual.

His eyes were closed, his lashes as thick as little fans, fluttering slightly.

His face, still as handsome as ever, was infuriatingly marred by exhaustion.

Xia Yangyang stood by the bed for a long time.

The room was very quiet.

It seemed as if she could hear the slow passage of time.

In the end, Xia Yangyang couldn’t bring herself to wake Gu Qichen up.

She quietly squatted down and took off Gu Qichen’s shoes.

Then she gently took the blanket and covered Gu Qichen’s body.

Xia Yangyang then turned and left, turning off the room’s light when she reached the door and gently closing it.

The moment the door closed.

In the darkness, a pair of deep black eyes slowly opened.

Gu Qichen didn’t move, just lay there with his eyes open.

In fact, he had indeed fallen asleep just now.

He hadn’t expected that, after so many days of insomnia, he could fall asleep so easily on Xia Yangyang’s bed.

The reason he came today was indeed due to his insomnia.

The feeling was too unbearable.

So he found an excuse.

That phone had actually been delivered to him half a month ago.

Inside, he had already browsed through everything countless times.

He hadn’t anticipated that Xia Yangyang would still be hiding so many photos of them together.

Her notes still referred to him as “husband.”

Seeing those two words really made his heart ache.

Had she simply not had the time to change them, or was there still a shred of attachment for him in her heart?

Gu Qichen was unsure.

But after so many days without seeing each other,

Gu Qichen felt as if it had been half a century–so long and drawn out.

Yet he couldn’t find a reason.

So he took the phone and came straight over.

He had already waited outside the Xia family’s villa for two hours.

Just when he thought Xia Yangyang might not come back today,

those two slowly walked back home.

They really looked like a couple in love.

They had a car but chose not to use it, walking in the glow of the car lights, talking and laughing as they went.

Gu Qichen hadn’t seen Xia Yangyang’s calm and warm smile for a long time.

It was as if, when facing him, she was like a cold hedgehog covered in spikes.

But in front of Gu Zhaohan, she was completely different.

That last hug made his heart bleed.

At that moment, he really wanted to rush forward and pull the two apart, or go up and punch Gu Zhaohan.

But he didn’t do it.
