Master Gu’s Boundless Love - Chapter 4

She was wearing only a thin sweater with a short cotton skirt underneath. These were Gu Chun’er’s clothes. They were simply unsuitable for Ming Qu.

Upon hearing Gu Yuzhen’s voice, Ming Qu sat up from her recliner. A faint smile crossed her fair face. “You’re here.”

“Come and eat your lunch.”

Gu Yuzhen’s voice was slightly frigid. He turned around, placing the food on a specially prepared table.

Ming Qu fumbled her way through. Without warning, a large pair of hands came to support her.

“Thank you.”

Gu Yuzhen’s cold heart was inexplicably touched.

There were words on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them down.

When Ming Qu was seated, he personally divided the food and placed the cutlery into her hands.

Under normal circumstances, she would have been fed by the servants. However, right now, besides Ming Qu herself, he was the only other person in the room.

Ming Qu held her cutlery with difficulty in one hand, and the plate in the other. She seemed to be unable to get the food into her mouth.

Gu Yuzhen watched from the side, frowning slightly.

He was not a gentleman, nor did he have a soft heart. Yet now, he could not bear to watch her struggle anymore.

He took a step forward, pulling himself a chair, and sat down beside her. He took the cutlery from her hands and started feeding her personally.

Ming Qu was startled.

Although she didn’t know what Gu Yuzhen looked like, she had gathered a thing or two about him from her conversations with the servants.

He was a man in his thirties. He was strong and cold, and he had never been close to women.

As a result, Father and Mother Gu had been continuously urging him on. The old lady had also come to hint at marriage.

Realizing this, Ming Qu felt a little reserved.

“Mr.Gu, why don’t we let Ah Ying come and do this?”

She suggested, after taking only two bites of her food.

The food that Gu Yuzhen had been hovering just in front of her mouth abruptly froze. “If you don’t want Grandma to be suspicious, then behave yourself.”

“Okay.”

Ming Qu responded softly, and quietly ate the food as he fed her.

The room became quiet, with a sunken atmosphere.

After some time, Gu Yuzhen asked, “Do you remember anything?”

The sudden question stunned Ming Qu.

“About your amnesia.”

He clarified, seemingly having noticed her hesitation.

Ming Qu continued to chew on the food in her mouth and shook her head lightly.

She couldn’t even see anything yet, how could she recover her memories so quickly?

Just as the two of them began to fall into silence once again, Gu Yuzhen’s phone rang.

He didn’t ignore it, picking up the phone right in front of her.

“Old Madam will go to Gu Yun’s place tomorrow. You can come over after she leaves.”

Thinking that he was telling her something, Ming Qu forgot to chew on her food.

Gu Yuzhen hung up the phone and put it away. Then, he started feeding her again.

On the other side of the door, the old madam had apparently wandered upstairs at some point.

The servants who were standing guard saw her coming from afar, and quickly went up to greet her.

“Old Madam, please slow down.”

“Where’s Chun’er? Let me have a look at her.”

Through the corridor, the sound of their conversation could be heard.

Ming Qu was alarmed, and immediately stood up from her chair. Coincidentally, she bumped into Gu Yuzhen’s arms. It turned out that he had also stood up.

Hearing the sound of his breath, Ming Qu instinctively took a step back.

Gu Yuzhen, afraid that she would fall, spontaneously reached his arm out to hold her, but just as quickly let her go.

“Don’t panic. Just sit down.”

As soon as he had spoken, he felt a gust of wind sweep past him.

When the door had opened, the old lady walked in with a smile. Gu Yuzhen was no longer in the room.

The old lady had just taken a seat in Gu Chun’er’s room when Gu Yuzhen appeared to enter from outside.

“Grandma, Chun’er’s cold is showing signs of infection. Don’t get too close to her.”

“I’m an old woman. What’s there to be afraid of?”

How could the old lady be so ignorant that Gu Yuzhen was obviously trying to chase her away?

She ignored him, holding on to Ming Qu’s hand. She stroked it as she said, “My Chun’er is getting more and more beautiful. I must persevere until my good granddaughter gets married.”

Ming Qu was a little touched when she heard that.

Before this, she had learned from the family doctor that the old lady was ill and should not be aggravated. Otherwise, he would not have let the stranger, Ming Qu, act as Gu Yuzhen’s sister. Furthermore, the old lady had not seen her granddaughter for quite some time.

“Cough cough!”

In that critical moment, Ming Qu had to put on an act.

The old lady naturally tried to avoid her cough.
