âGu Yu Cheng.â
âIâm here.â After a pause, he added, âWhat do you want to say?â
âI think you are not a domineering president at all,â Su Rui said grimly as she looked at Gu Yu Cheng.
Hearing Su Ruiâs words, Gu Yu Cheng was suddenly a bit puzzled.
âDomineering president? What do you mean?â
âThe literal meaning of it,â Su Rui said with a wink at Gu Yu Cheng.
If she remembered correctly, the characterization of âGu Yu Chengâ in the novel was that of a cold, indifferent, high-minded and overbearing president who did everything without missing a beat.
Even during his second life with the female protagonist, he still maintained his cool and domineering demeanour.
While the person in front of her isâ¦
After staying in the hospital with Su Rui for several days, Gu Yu Cheng didnât even have the time to shave and had only changed into the clothes he brought over in advance.
Now the stubble on his chin had sprouted and his hair grew quite a bit.
Overall, he looked a bit unkempt.
Anyway, he didnât match the âGu Yu Chengâ in the novel at all.
Looking at Su Rui, Gu Yu Cheng also raised his eyebrows.
âWoman, youâve successfully caught my attention.â
Gu Yu Cheng lowered his head slightly, held Su Ruiâs chin in one hand and said slowly.
âLike that?â
After all, the term âdomineering presidentâ was so commonly used and some of the female employees in the company would also occasionally talk about it. Even if Gu Yu Cheng was busy with his work, he couldnât have been ignorant to this extent.
âPfftâ¦â Su Rui successfully burst out laughing at Gu Yu Chengâs sudden classic line of a domineering president.
âGu Yu Cheng⦠You⦠Hahaâ¦â
âDonât make me laugh. I canât, youâ¦â
âIs it like that?â
âYes.â
âSay another line.â
âThereâs five million in the card, take it and spend however you like?â Gu Yu Cheng said after much thought.
âEn. Thatâs too little.â
âThen ten million?â
âHaha, this is barely enough.â
The words coming out of Gu Yu Chengâs mouth were a little bit vulgar.
Gu Yu Cheng also smiled along with Su Rui. He bent down to slightly raise the backrest of the hospital bed for Su Rui and brought her into his arms.
âAre you happy?â Gu Yu Cheng asked.
He did not ask Su Rui why she suddenly thought of playing this game.
âNot bad,â Su Rui said loudly with a smile.
Lying in Gu Yu Chengâs arms and smelling the familiar scent of the other personâs body, she suddenly felt very much at peace.
If this world was really a novel, then the plot had probably collapsed to the point where she didnât even recognize her own mother now.
And this man, currently her husband, was also the father of her child.
Su Rui doesnât feel indebted to anyone.
After all, anyone has the right to live their life well.
Moreover, perhaps because the difference between the novel and reality was so great, Su Rui had a hard time even bringing the novelâs plot into this current state.
In the original novel, even though the female protagonist was reborn in a new life, she returned to her country many years earlier in a glorious way, and eventually returned to the male protagonist without any issues.
But in the end, Bai Xin Yu and âGu Yu Chengâ only live out their second life as they treated one another as an honoured guest.[1]
The explanation in the novel is the main character has always been like that.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
If thatâs true, then how do you explain the guy in front of her?
If Gu Yu Cheng is just like in the novel, how the male lead acted towards the female lead, and treated her (Su Rui) as an honoured guest, she would have to think about divorcing him.
âYu Cheng.â
âHm? Are you hungry? Drink the soup first?â
âOkay.â Su Rui nodded.
After receiving the soup fed by Gu Yu Cheng, Su Rui thought and asked, âWhen is Bai Xin Yuâs court date?â
Hearing Su Ruiâs question, Gu Yu Chengâs movements paused. âItâs temporarily scheduled for the 27th of next month.â
Su Rui said, âCan it be requested to be moved at a later date? I want to appear in court.â
Although he does not quite agree, Gu Yu Cheng still chose to respect Su Ruiâs decision.
âOkay.â Gu Yu Cheng nodded and added, âIf your physical condition allows it at that time.â
âDrink the soup first.â
âMm, alright.â With her purpose achieved, Su Rui nodded towards Gu Yucheng with a smile on her face.
Originally, Su Rui did feel that there was no need to see Bai Xin Yu again, but it was at this time that she was made aware that the other person might be reborn.
Seeing that the other party didnât think much of it, Su Rui just wanted to bring the matter to a close.
Now that the two of them already have a child together, what odd thoughts could Bai Xin Yu have?
Thinking of this, Su Ruiâs gaze softly looked to the side at Little Gu (her son) in the pram.
Little Gu looked much prettier than when he was first born, not at all like the ugly âred-skinned monkeyâ in the delivery room.
Her and Gu Yuchengâs features could be seen in his eyebrows.
Originally, Little Gu was sleeping soundly, and occasionally his head would move slightly.
However, as she watched, Su Rui noticed that he seemed to have scrunched up his face.
âYu Cheng, Yu Cheng.â
âWhatâs wrong?â
âLook at your son quickly, is he about to cry?â
Hearing Su Ruiâs words, the gazes of the adults in the room also fell on the little babyâs body.
âThe baby should be hungry.â The nanny, who was keeping watch by the side, skillfully looked at the baby and said with a smile, âMummy can feed him some milk.â
âThis first sip of breast milk is especially good.â The nanny didnât forget to share her experience.
About this, Su Rui had looked it up on the internet and naturally also knew that breastfeeding would be better.
Thus, it had been agreed before that the child would drink milk formula afterwards, but they will still be breastfeeding until her confinement ends.
Seeing the hint of unnaturalness on Su Ruiâs face, Gu Yucheng smiled and said, âDo you need me to step away for a moment?â
As soon as the words left his mouth, he was stopped by the nanny.
âWhat are you excusing yourself for? During this first sip of milk, you will still need to help on the side as the babyâs father.â
