"I only let you come to my house because I felt sorry for you because your clothes were wet. This is the first and last time, so don't overthink it."
He absolutely adored her contradictory and awkward demeanor, and even found it somewhat enjoyable.
Isn't her home his home too?
The two returned to Mu Wanwan's home together. This was his first time visiting her little nest. Although small, it had everything he needed. The unique fragrance of her room dispelled his fatigue from the day.
"Go take a hot shower!"
"it is good!"
He hummed a song happily as he used her shampoo, shower gel, and body lotion.
Mu Wanwan opened the refrigerator door, took out some ingredients, and busied herself in the kitchen.
After taking a shower, Gu Zhishen leaned against the kitchen door frame, drying his hair with a towel. He smiled broadly, unable to contain his joy. Watching her busy figure in the kitchen made him feel as if he had returned to the past.
As she turned to get the plate, she caught a glimpse of him smiling and staring at her.
She was wearing only a pink bath towel around her lower body as she placed the plate down.
Why aren't you wearing the clothes I gave you?
Gu Zhishen tossed the towel he was using to dry his hair aside, quickly walked to her side, and hugged her from behind, his 188cm tall frame hanging on her like a pendant.
"Honey, how am I supposed to wear your nightgown?"
With his long arms and legs, and even though he was wearing women's clothing, he couldn't fit into it at all.
Mu Wanwan started cooking, but the thing on her body was getting in her way. She twisted her body and said, "Go sit in the living room and stop causing trouble here."
"No, I want to hold you." Gu Zhishen rested his head on Mu Wanwan's shoulder and gently rubbed against her.
"Alright, stop fooling around, the food's going to burn." Mu Wanwan shook her head helplessly, her tone tinged with a hint of coquettishness.
The large, clingy dog, who had been holding its owner tightly, finally let go, but still stood by watching her cook. Soon after, three dishes and a soup were served.
"Try my cooking." Mu Wanwan picked up a piece of pork rib and placed it in Gu Zhishen's bowl, her eyes full of anticipation.
Gu Zhishen took a bite and smiled with satisfaction. "Delicious."
All the dishes were made according to his preferences.
"Ding, Master, favorability increased by 10."
"Eat more if you like it!" Mu Wanwan kept piling food into his bowl, but he was like a homeless person who hadn't eaten a full meal for many days, and he couldn't stop eating once he started.
"Honey, even a five-star restaurant can't compare to one ten-thousandth of what you make."
He really wanted her cooking; he had never enjoyed a meal so much while on set.
"Eat it!"
After the meal, his stomach was bulging, so he took on the task of washing the dishes, while Mu Wanwan went to take a shower.
Fortunately, she hasn't kicked him out since he entered the house. He's still clinging to the hope that he might be able to stay overnight.
Having just finished showering, Mu Wanwan was bundled up tightly. "Gu Zhishen, let's talk!"
Gu Zhishen and she sat side by side on the sofa.
"Honey, the bank card issue definitely wasn't me."
Mu Wanwan took out her phone and pressed play. Mo Ziting's voice came from the phone.
"It really wasn't me! The card isn't mine either, I swear!"
After saying that, he got up to find his things, and returned a moment later with several cards in his hand.
He shoved all the cards into Mu Wanwan's hand.
"Honey, these are my cards. All my savings are in these cards."
Mu Wanwan handed the card back to him, "Why are you giving me your card?"
Gu Zhishen opened her palm again and placed the card in her palm once more.
"Honey, this contains all my assets. I'll entrust it to you for safekeeping from now on. Besides the cards, there are also some funds, real estate, shares... In a few days, I'll have my agent organize everything and transfer it to your name. From now on, you can just give me some pocket money."
The card in her hand instantly became a hot potato, and she quickly put it on the table, like a frightened deer.
"I... I don't want these things of yours. You should keep them for Miss Mo."
Miss Mo, it's Miss Mo again. Why do we always have to bring her up?
"Wife, don't you understand my feelings?"
Mu Wanwan shook her head.
Gu Zhi took a deep breath to calm himself down.
How could she not understand that he had already given her all his possessions?
"Honey, let's live a good life together from now on, okay? Let's never be apart again."
Mu Wanwan shook her head again, her face devoid of any smile.
Why? Why are you rejecting me?
Mu Wanwan turned to look into his eyes. "Want to know why?"
Of course he wanted to know if he hadn't made it obvious enough.
"do you like me?"
Gu Zhishen nodded. Of course he liked her; otherwise, he wouldn't have asked her to marry him.
"Then you love me?"
Love? He hesitated, perhaps because he didn't yet understand the specific meaning of love.
Do you know what it feels like to love someone?
She smiled helplessly. How could he possibly understand?
"To love someone is to go to great lengths to make them smile, to lose your appetite because of their slightest unhappiness, and to think about them all the time!"
I love you! I've willingly degraded myself to be your substitute, to play the role of your substitute.
I love you! I'm willing to study recipes every day and keep trying just to nourish your stomach.
I love you! I'm willing to give up my own happiness for you.
I love you! I don't plan to accept any other man for the rest of my life...
And what about you? What have you done to me?
Gu Zhishen was filled with shame, "Wife, I..."
"On our wedding night, when you were pressing me down and calling out Mo Ziting's name, did you consider my feelings?"
Do you always treat me as a substitute for her?
Covering my eyes, is it like looking at her? How ridiculous! You keep telling me, reminding me, that I'm just a substitute!
I've been obedient enough. Your white moonlight has returned to China, and I've obediently made way for her, stepping down and yielding the throne.
Where were you when she came to humiliate me with her bank card?
"Without your indulgence, what right does she have to humiliate me with money?"
Her voice choked with sobs, and tears streamed down her cheeks, dripping onto the back of his hand. Every word she spoke seared his heart.
His face was ashen, his lips trembled slightly, and he wanted to explain but couldn't find the words. He felt his world collapsing, everything becoming so absurd and incomprehensible.
"No, no..." He turned around and knelt on the ground, placing his head on her knees, putting his pride on the ground. It turned out that everything that had happened before was like sharp thorns stuck in her heart. If they weren't pulled out today, they might really have no future.
"Wife, don't be angry. I can explain everything." His voice was filled with endless pleading, and his eyes were full of pain and regret.
Mu Wanwan stared into his eyes, trying to find a trace of sincerity in them, but all she saw was deep guilt and self-reproach. A complex emotion welled up in her heart, a mixture of anger, disappointment, and a touch of pity.
