Chapter 11: I miss you so much that I can't even sleep

To prepare Qin Yan, Tang Yun even sent a video.

In the video, Lin Yan looked haggard, her hands pressed against her stomach, leaning pitifully on Gu He'an's shoulder. Gu He'an lowered his head to talk to her, his gaze filled with a gentleness she had never seen before.

So he did know how to take care of people.

She remembered one time when she had period cramps and was in so much pain she couldn't stand straight. She asked the man to help her pour a cup of hot water, but the man mocked her, saying it was just period cramps and not to be so coy.

So, not loving meant not loving.

No matter how much she gave, she didn't even deserve a bit of pity.

Tang Yun sent another voice note. "He actually dared to betray you, scumbag! Qin Yan, what do you want to do? If you come over, I'll help you stall them!"

"Don't misunderstand first; I'll call him to ask about the situation." Qin Yan rubbed her sore waist, not really wanting to run to the hospital in the middle of the night for a scumbag.

She dialed Gu He'an's number, and the call was hung up.

She leaned lazily on the sofa and continued to dial.

It was only on the third call that it connected, and Gu He'an's impatient tone sounded. "What is it?"

Qin Yan pretended to be aggrieved and countered, "He'an, didn't you say you would make up for our missed wedding night tonight?"

Lu Qianchuan, who had just walked to the bedroom door, heard the woman's words. Because his bathrobe had been taken by the woman, he was only wearing a bath towel and was just about to go find new pajamas.

His footsteps turned, and he stood shirtless, arms crossed, staring coldly at the woman's back.

Qin Yan, completely unaware, didn't get a response from Gu He'an and continued to ask, "Where are you? I'll come find you?"

"No need, I'm busy with work; I can't accompany you today." Gu He'an refused coldly.

Qin Yan, however, let out an "Oh?" "You're working? Why do I hear the sound of numbers being called? Are you at the hospital? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

"Qin Yan, can you stop being so long-winded? And trying to control me like this makes me feel very oppressed!"

Qin Yan listened to his impatient tone, her heart feeling as if it had been stabbed by a knife.

After being with him, she did like to stick to him, but she had never interfered with his daily activities.

Occasionally nagging him about some things was because his illness had just recovered, and there were many things he needed to pay attention to.

In reality, it was just that he had long been annoyed with her, so he felt everything she said was unpleasant.

But if you don't like her, why not break up with her instead of using a fake marriage certificate to trick her?

It was your own sin!

"But I miss you so much that I can't even sleep; I didn't mean to disturb your work." She sounded as if she were about to cry, compromising, "You should rest early too; you've just recovered from a serious illness, so pay attention to your health."

Qin Yan hung up the phone and sent a message to Tang Yun.

【Tang Yun, He'an explained it to me; they are just colleagues. Thank you for worrying about me.】

【Qin Yan, are you too innocent? When he was on the phone with you, I saw with my own eyes that he kissed that woman; how could they just be colleagues!】

Tang Yun was angry at her lack of resolve, thinking of how Qin Yan had given up the opportunity to be an attending physician to take care of him and accompany him through his recovery.

Gu He'an's illness was finally cured, and he had actually become ungrateful.

She felt indignant and walked toward the two of them.

"Mr. Gu, are you sick? Do you need my help?"

Seeing Tang Yun, Gu He'an looked panicked and immediately pushed Lin Yan away, greeting her with an awkward expression.

"My friend is sick; we've already seen the doctor and are waiting for the test results."

Tang Yun glanced at the woman beside him. "I'll help you urge them; I happen to be on the night shift."

She turned to find her colleague, inquired about it, and handed the test report to Gu He'an.

She said, "Mr. Gu, you are truly kind to help a friend so enthusiastically. I wonder if Qin Yan knows you have such a good friend?"

"An emergency event; I just brought a friend to the hospital." Gu He'an furrowed his brows, forgetting that Qin Yan had friends here.

Lin Yan was suddenly pushed away and nearly fell. She glared at the man with red eyes and turned to leave in grievance.

Gu He'an wanted to explain, but seeing Tang Yun still there, he warned her with a cold face.

"Qin Yan also knows my friend. Don't tell her about such a small matter. After all, it's not easy to find a job now, right, Dr. Tang?"

Tang Yun heard his threat and cursed in her heart.

Scumbag, dog man!

But she only dared to curse in her heart. Gu He'an had power and influence; if she offended him on the surface, she would be the one to suffer, so she could only compromise.

She messaged Qin Yan, saying she might have misunderstood. Qin Yan wasn't surprised and just chatted with her cooperatively for a few sentences.

Tang Yun had an impulsive personality and hated evil, so she would definitely go find trouble with Gu He'an. Gu He'an definitely didn't want his affair with Lin Yan to reach her ears and would definitely threaten her to keep quiet.

Now she didn't want Gu He'an anymore.

She didn't care who he was with.

She cared more now about how to make him pay the price for deceiving her!

Putting down her phone, she went to wash the orange peels and soak them in salt water.

Turning around, she saw Lu Qianchuan standing at the bedroom door with a gloomy handsome face. She felt danger, pretended to be calm, walked to him, and asked with a smile, "Dressed so little, aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

"There's a show to watch, it's quite lively." Lu Qianchuan teased, raising his hand to brush the stray hair by her cheek behind her ear. "Is it that I haven't satisfied you, that you still have the heart to think of other men?"

"Cough... my dealings with other men are just for show." Since she had been overheard, Qin Yan didn't pretend anymore.

"You'd better be acting, Qin Yan. There is no divorce here, only me collecting your corpse!"

"..." The man's cold warning was truly frightening. Qin Yan swallowed, but she wasn't panicked. She acted like a brat, leaned her entire body weight against the man's chest, stood on tiptoe to kiss his chin, and her hands were restless, drawing circles on his chest muscles.

"Don't be so fierce. Acting is just finding a way to deal with Gu He'an."

Lu Qianchuan felt itchy, gripped her hand, and his expression didn't soften. "Registering with me was to anger Gu He'an?"

"You could say that." Qin Yan added, "However, it also let you get twenty percent of the Gu Group's shares and helped you deal with an arch-nemesis, so you aren't at a loss."

"..."

Lu Qianchuan gripped her wrist. Because it was too forceful, the woman frowned and groaned, and he immediately let go.

He knew clearly in his heart that her registering with him had an ulterior motive.

But hearing her say it herself, he still felt unhappy.

He bent down and hoisted her back to the room.

Lying on the man's shoulder, Qin Yan suddenly felt a bit afraid; the man's aura was very heavy, making people feel awe.

She tried to continue negotiating with him. "Mr. Lu, although this involves private feelings, it doesn't harm your interests. Besides, we are the ones tied to the same chain, and I also guarantee that I will absolutely not do anything that violates this marriage."

Lu Qianchuan threw her onto the bed and then leaned over her.

His cool fingertips traced her lip line, and he said coldly, "Mrs. Lu, I won't interfere with your private feelings, but your body is in my bed, and still thinking of other men—that's my dereliction of duty. That won't do."

"No... mmph!"

Qin Yan wanted to explain that she was just saying those things to disgust Gu He'an, but the man didn't give her a chance to explain and kissed her lips. ===== CHAPTER 12 =====
