Master Gu’s Boundless Love - Chapter 7

Just as Ming Qu was beginning to feel dejected, her hand was once again taken by his, and she felt the touch of a cool and smooth cheek.

This…

Ming Qu could not help but feel a little bit delighted.

From the moment she had arrived in this place, she had no memories, no light.

Although she was only Gu Chun’er’s substitute, this Mr. Gu had treated her exceptionally well.

Thinking about this, Ming Qu’s face turned slightly red as she gradually lowered her head.

Perhaps Gu Yuzhen had noticed this, as he did not do anything else.

The cramped car was awkwardly silent.

After some time, the car came to a stop.

Ming Qu let out a slight sigh of relief. Just as she was about to speak, she felt the car door to her side open.

“Miss, we’re here.”

She clearly recognized the driver’s voice.

After all, Gu Yuzhen had already brought her out of the villa twice, and it had always been the same driver who had picked her up and gotten her off the car.

As soon as her foot touched the ground, a cold gust of wind blew past her, causing her to instinctively shrink her shoulders. She unexpectedly bumped against a firm chest, and a clear, masculine scent entered her nostrils.

Ming Qu felt her cheeks heat up and she wanted to step back, but she stopped as she heard Gu Yuzhen’s soft voice saying, “The wind is a little strong, I’m afraid that you’ll fall.”

She was speechless at this candid explanation.

He had taken her to a private hospital for an eye examination.

The moment her gauze was removed, a dim white light appeared in front of her eyes, but she still couldn’t see anything clearly.

She waved her hand in front of her eyes to attract the doctor’s attention.

“Miss Gu, after the second cornea replacement, you seem to have made a phenomenal recovery. Compared to previous patients, this is a miracle.”

The person spoke in French, but strangely enough, Ming Qu found that she was able to understand all of it.

After leaving the hospital, she had been confused, but she did not dare to confide in Gu Yuzhen.

At night, just as she was about to rest, he entered her room.

“If there’s anything bothering you, let me know. Don’t hold it in your heart.”

She had been conflicted throughout the whole afternoon, and as a result, she had not been very focused. When she was signing the documents, she had unconsciously used the name “Ming Qu”.

Arriving home from work, Gu Yuzhen did not enter his study room, instead coming directly to look for her.

“I’m fine.”

Ming Qu sat up in her bed. The warm yellow glow from the wall lamp hanging above the head of the bed gently reflected against her small face.

Gu Yuzhen stood silently, his deep eyes resembling a vast galaxy.

He did not say anything else. He stood still for a few seconds before leaving the room.

In the following days, the old lady suddenly fell ill, and as such, Ming Qu did not have to pretend to be ill herself and stay confined in her room.

Besides Gu Yuzhen, who had taken the time to take her to the hospital, Li Jing had also accompanied her to prescribe medicine for treatment.

In the blink of an eye, two months had passed, and France welcomed its first snowfall.

One morning, Ming Qu was awakened by a nightmare and ripped off gauze on her eyes. Winded, she heaved for breath for a while before she finally calmed down. Her vision was foggy, but she could just about make out the furnishings in the room.

She got out of bed and carefully pulled open the heavy curtains. Looking at the world outside covered in a thick white fog, her fright slowly dissipated.

She pushed open the sliding door on her balcony. The moment she stepped out, a chill ran down her neck and quickly spread throughout her body.

Ming Qu could not help but shiver. She tightened her pajamas and went towards the railing, where she felt something scrape against her face. She reached out to touch it. It was wet and cold.

She did not know how much time had passed as she stood there, only moving when her eyes had started to become slightly uncomfortable. Only then did she stumble into the house with some difficulty.

Just as she closed the sliding door, something warm slid down from her eyes.

It had been snow just now. At the time, she had not realized what it was.

She tried to open her eyes, only to find that her originally white and foggy vision now looked like it was covered under a layer of red cloth.

“Ah, Ah Ying…”

She was shocked as she muttered.

Ah Ying was staying in the guest room beside hers so that it would be more convenient for her to take care of Ming Qu.

However, as her voice was too soft, Ah Ying had not yet rushed over.

She wiped her hands a few times, only to find that the sticky fluid was staining her hands. A coppery smell permeated her nose, and she finally came back to her senses.

This was blood!

“Ah Ying!”

She cried out suddenly. Not only did Ah Ying appear soon after, but Gu Yuzhen and Li Jing as well.
