Chapter 149 Gu Yuchen shows vulnerability in confusion; Ji Yan and Su Mo meet
After Jin Ran left, Ye Xingyao stayed by Gu Yuchen's side.
She kept staring at Gu Yuchen's indicators, watching his heart rate flashing on the screen, her eyes blank.
Suddenly, her clenched fingers moved, and then, before Ye Xingyao was prepared, they slipped out of her hands and moved straight towards her abdomen.
Gu Yuchen frowned and his breathing became a little rapid, but as soon as his hand moved to his abdomen, Ye Xingyao grasped it again.
He frowned in dissatisfaction and rolled his throat, obviously trying hard to endure the pain.
Seeing this, Ye Xingyao immediately touched his painful spot with her hand.
"Does it hurt a lot... Give me some painkillers..." Ye Xingyao looked at Gu Yuchen with worry in her eyes. She was afraid that Gu Yuchen's body would suddenly not be able to bear it and develop heart problems as Jin Ran said.
Gu Yuchen was brought back to consciousness by the pain in his daze. He heard Ye Xingyao's words dimly and shook his head subconsciously. But he still moved his arm towards his abdomen.
"Don't move. Pressing will hurt yourself." Ye Xingyao blocked his arms in the air again and put them back on both sides of his body.
Seeing that Gu Yuchen was in real pain, she had no choice but to gently circle around his upper abdomen, but she did not dare to increase the force for fear of causing bleeding.
The gentle movement made Gu Yuchen a little more sober. He slowly raised his eyes, still in a hazy state, and looked at Ye Xingyao silently.
"Yaoyao..."
"I'm here." Seeing that Gu Yuchen was awake, Ye Xingyao immediately responded softly.
"I want to go back to the bedroom..."
She looked at Gu Yuchen in a daze. She didn't expect that he would be so averse to the medical room even at home.
"No, he's still receiving an infusion, and there are instruments doing tests." Ye Xingyao explained patiently while gently massaging the painful area with her hands.
"But...here...the bed isn't big enough...I don't like it."
"I think... holding you... while sleeping... won't hurt..."
Gu Yuchen spoke word by word, his eyes full of tears of pain, and he looked at Ye Xingyao weakly with tears in his eyes. He felt his brain was heavy at the moment, and after a few seconds he suddenly realized what he had just said.
A feeling of stubbornness and embarrassment made him keep silent.
But his unconscious display of vulnerability made Ye Xingyao's heart tremble and she felt pity.
"Then you need to get well soon, rest well and eat well. Once you recover tomorrow, you can..."
"Really?" There was a look of helplessness and pain in Gu Yuchen's eyes. He was usually decisive and swift, but now he had a pleading tone.
"Ah."
"Then it's settled... tomorrow..." Gu Yuchen had just finished speaking when another wave of cramps came over him. He frowned and closed his eyes, his breathing becoming rapid and slightly disordered.
Seeing this, Ye Xingyao thought he was in great pain. In panic, she didn't know what to do and couldn't help but kiss his lips.
The soft touch instantly freed Gu Yuchen from the pain. He slightly opened his eyes, looked at Ye Xingyao who was so close to him, and tried to give a response.
A few minutes later, Ye Xingyao felt that Gu Yuchen seemed to have no other unnecessary movements. When she got up, she found that he seemed to have fallen asleep again.
Excessive blood loss and physical pain made his mind confused and sleepy from time to time. After a brief wakefulness, Gu Yuchen was pulled back by the heavy consciousness again and fell into a light sleep.
Seeing that Gu Yuchen was frowning slightly while sleeping, she felt distressed and gently lay down on the empty seat next to him on the bed and hugged him.
Gu Yuchen seemed to sense Ye Xingyao's temperature and breath in his light sleep, and rubbed his head in her arms. Then he fell asleep with a steady and even breath.

The next morning.
Su Mo had been waiting in the coffee shop where she and Ji Yan had made an appointment. She looked at Ji Yan walking towards her from the window with a hint of pride in her eyes.
"I know about the relationship between President Ji and Yuchen. Although I have broken up with him now, I will never agree if you use me to do anything to hurt him."
Before Ji Yan sat down, Su Mo had already made a statement with a veiled tone.
"Miss Su, don't be anxious. Even if I want to deal with Mr. Gu, I won't ask you to be my teammate." Ji Yan smiled slightly for a moment, and his peach blossom eyes looked at Su Mo meaningfully.
"Haha. Mr. Ji really doesn't hide anything. Tell me, what's the matter." Su Mo glared at Ji Yan.
"Take your Gu Yuchen away. I can't let Gu Yuchen bring danger to Ye Xingyao." Ji Yan went straight to the point, his face serious and his tone solemn.
Su Mo caught the message in two or three seconds, and then smiled coldly and contemptuously.
"Ye Xingyao? Haha... What kind of drug did she use to make all of you so bewildered?" Su Mo almost gritted his teeth when he said the three words Ye Xingyao.
"Gu Yuchen will be mine sooner or later. Even if you don't look for me, I will find a way to get him back. A young girl who has not experienced much of the world actually wants to compete with me, who has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, for a man. She really doesn't know her own limitations."
"You can't hurt her." Ji Yan heard the hostility towards Ye Xingyao in Su Mo's words and immediately defended her.
"Oh, that's ridiculous. What's wrong with all of you?" Su Mo looked at Ji Yan coldly, speaking sharply and sarcastically.
"I'm here today to cooperate with you. Gu Yuchen returns to you, and Ye Xingyao returns to me. This is the right path." Ji Yan said as he took out a file bag and pushed it in front of Su Mo.
Su Mo opened it and took a look without hesitation, and his pupils dilated instantly.
"It's easy to break them up. Gu Yuchen has no energy to take care of other things at this stage. Do you want to cooperate?" Ji Yan lowered his chin silently and smiled.
"It's a pleasure to work with you." Su Mo raised the corner of his mouth slightly and stretched out his right hand.
"But...what do you mean he doesn't have the energy at this stage?" Su Mo paused before realizing the other meaning in Ji Yan's words.
Ji Yan laughed out loud. Su Mo was indeed a smart person. She would not let go of any hint of her words. Since she cared so much about Gu Yuchen, he would add fuel to the fire.
"Ms. Su, don't you know yet? The man who injured Mr. Gu three years ago is back. He left Lin Mo's elite team yesterday to meet the other party, and he was injured..." Ji Yan paused deliberately, looking at Su Mo with an inexplicable smile.
"He's injured?! What kind of injury?! Where is he injured?!" Su Mo immediately looked panicked when he heard that Gu Yuchen was injured.
"That's the limit of what I can do. With Lin Mo here, it's hard for my people to get any other information, so they've already evacuated the villa. But... Owen came back with his assassin assistant, and Gu Yuchen is probably hanging by a thread between life and death." While Ji Yan was speaking, his eyes stayed on Su Mo's, observing the subtle changes in her expression.
Su Mo glared at Ji Yan fiercely, then quickly left the cafe with her bag, looking angry and anxious.
