My Cold Gentle Husband Chapter 17 - Gu Yezhi, You're Done (2)

Gu Yezhi, You're Done (2)

“Pa!”

He dropped his signature pen on the table. Xue Ying and Xue Yun were both shocked, and they came forward in a nervous manner.

“Sir.”

Gu Yezhi restlessly waved. He stood up and called the villa to confirm that Bai Qingyan had returned home. Only then did he feel relieved.

Gu Yezhi thought: "You have done enough! Bai Qingyan should go to the 18th layer of hell. You still think of her but she is apathetic towards you, you deserve better!"

He pursed his lips. In his heart, he mercilessly scolded himself. His mood then calmed down a little bit..

Bai Qingyan sat on the sofa in the hall, and waited for Gu Yezhi to come home from work. She thought over and over again about her past life and Gu Yezhi's attitude towards her in this life. Her eyes sank slightly, and her heart sank continuously.

At seven o'clock, Bai Qingyan smelled the aroma of food, and came back to her senses. She stood up and saw Gu Yezhi coming in from the outside. The lighting shed on his upright tall body and he had a cold and reserved expression… His thin lips were clenched and he untied the tie on his neck.

“Yezhi, you're back.”

Bai Qingyan stood up enthusiastically and forgot her unhappiness in the office. She walked over to help him untie his tie like she did in his previous life. But Gu Yezhi stepped back, and asked the maid remove the tie from his neck. He only gave her one indifferent glance and went on his way.

Bai Qingyan hand's froze in the air and her beautiful eyes dropped with a look of pain.

Gu Yezhi looked at the way she was injured and his heart gave a sharp sting. He almost took half a step towards her subconsciously. Then he clenched his fist and tried to warn himself not to love her. He was silent for a moment, glanced coldly at the Bai Qingyan. He turned and went to the dinning hall.

Bai Qingyan sighed and kept up with his steps.

Retribution! This was her karma. But it didn't matter to her as she would accept it and face it head on.

At the dinner table, both were silent. Bai Qingyan eyes were almost always on Gu Yezhi's face and her heart felt bitter. In her last life, Gu Yezhi always took care of her tenderly when eating, but at the moment he was so indifferent that he didn't even look at her.

Bai Qingyan's mind floated and reached for the red wine next to her. By this time, the chef brought a wok with chicken wing stir fry to the table. Suddenly Bai Qingyan brushed the hot wok with the back of her hand.

“Ah-” She felt a severe pain on her hand, and didn't intend to exclaim aloud. In a moment her train of thoughts was interrupted.

“Bang!”

Bai Qingyan sensed a huge shadow hanged down, at once the chef fell to the ground. Then she heard Gu Yezhi's thundering voice. "Are you blind!? Get out of here now!”

“I'm sorry, Sir, I didn't expect Madam would suddenly stretch out her hand!" The chef spoke as he quivered with fear. Bai Qingyan was Gu Yezhi's insanity scale. Beforehand, the butler had given a sincere advice to everyone in the villa who came in to work.

And then Bai Qingyan's hand was held by Gu Yezhi's, his voice was aloof but she could sense his uneasiness. “Yan Yan, is it very painful?”

Bai Qingyan's eyes were red, she bit her lips but said nothing.

Gu Yezhi's took her towards the sink and the cold water washed down, then the tingling sensation on the back of the hand was instantly relieved.

Bai Qingyan tears fell down.

He cares about her.
