Chapter 50 A Guilty Conscience
Yun Muxi said angrily, “Why do you suddenly break in? Don’t you know that you just illegally entered my house?”
Gong Yu laughed out and thought her even lovelier. He teased her in a good mood. “I just wanted to know why you’ve been avoiding me all the time. Have you done anything bad to me?”
Yun Muxi squinted at Gong Yu and answered with a guilty conscience, “No! I haven’t done anything bad to you!” However, just as she spoke so, she realized that she fell into his trap and yelled angrily at him. “Gong Yu, you broke into my house, how could you question me instead? There is nothing between you and me!”
Gong Yu showed an evil smile and continued teasing her. “What… if I want to do something bad to you now?”
Yun Muxi’s heart skipped a beat and asked him nervously, “What… do you want to do?”
Gong Yu drew near to her and leaned one elbow on the sofa on her right side with the other hand lifting her exquisite chin. He asked her with a smile, “What do you think I will do?”
Gong Yu’s words were ambiguous. His deep voice was a little husky, however, it still caused Yun Muxi’s heart to beat quickly. She felt as if her soul would be sucked into his beautiful amber eyes which seemed to have magic. Her thought was carried away by his sexy voice, and she could not help but stare at his rosy lips. They were so beautiful, tempting people to crime.
Yun Muxi pursed her lips and swallowed, totally forgetting her situation.
Her reaction caused Gong Yu’s desire to rise endlessly. He had just wanted to tease her, but now, he was tempted and lowered his head to her lips.
Yun Muxi had a cool feeling on her lips, and her heart beat wildly. Having tasted the sweet, Gong Yu pressed onto her lustily, hugging her with his arms pressing against the top part of the sofa.
The atmosphere in the room immediately became romantic. Anyone who looked at such a pleasing and romantic scene would blush and cover his eyes, however, he would also want to peep at them through the gap between their fingers for they could not resist such a beautiful scene.
When Gong Yu reluctantly stopped kissing Yun Muxi, whose lips were slightly swollen, a long time had passed. At that moment, her lips looked even more inviting, so, Gong Yu left a kiss on them again, unwilling to leave…
At last, Gong Yu managed to suppress his desire with his strong will and said wistfully, “Xiao Xi, your lips taste so sweet. I really hope that I can kiss them forever.”
Yun Muxi lowered her gaze, face blushed. Suddenly, she realized that they were being too close, she pushed Gong Yu away. Gong Yu was caught off guard and fell to the teapoy, hitting his forehead against the corner. A wound immediately appeared where he got hit.
Yun Muxi did not expect that her sudden move would hurt Gong Yu, nervously trying to help him up. However, she was too hurried and lost her balance. Therefore, she failed to help Gong Yu up and fell down on the floor with him instead.
Right then, they heard someone unlock the door with a key. They were Gu Yuxuan and Niannian.
“Mommy Xuan, has my mom gone back now?” Niannian’s childish voice was clear and could be heard inside the house.
“I don’t know. Luckily, I remembered to pick you up; otherwise, you would have been left in your school as your mom is too busy to take you home.” Gu Yuxuan’s soft voice sounded clear in the house as well.
“When my mom gets back, I’ll punish her by asking her to tell me two more stories tonight.”
The voices outside the door put Yun Muxi in a panic, and she rose up from her feet helter-skelter. Gu Yuxuan entered the house and saw Yun Muxi’s embarrassed look and Gong Yu get up from the floor. What Gu Yuxuan had seen captured her imagination.
Gu Yuxuan said to them embarrassedly, “Sorry, I didn’t know that you were at home. It seems that I disturbed you. You can go on what you were doing just now; I’ll take Niannian downstairs to play around.”
After saying this, she held Niannian’s hand and tried to leave.
Yun Muxi explained quickly. “Don’t go, Xuanxuan! We didn’t do anything except that Gong Yu fell down and got his forehead wounded, and I was trying to help him.”
Gu Yuxuan looked towards Gong Yu and saw a wound on his forehead where it was bleeding. She was somewhat convinced, however, when she looked back at Yun Muxi and found her lips swollen, she was suspicious of Yun Muxi’s words again. “Well… could it be that they have a special taste and did something too fiercely…”
Seeing Gu Yuxuan’s eyes full of doubt and interest, Yun Muxi immediately explained further. “Xuanxuan, what I said is true! Nothing has happened between him and me! You must trust me!”
Gu Yuxuan shut the door and made fun of her. “If you’ve done nothing else, why are you so flushed?”
Yun Muxi’s face turned even more flushed after she heard the words. She looked back and gazed at Gong Yu angrily, who made her situation even worse by saying, “Don’t look at me. It’s all because you’re so charming…”
Yun Muxi covered his mouth with her hands to stop him from speaking, so, Gong Yu was unable to finish his words.
Gu Yuxuan laughed happily as she saw their actions. Watching aside, Niannian was puzzled. She raised her head to look at Gu Yuxuan and asked innocently, “Mommy Xuan, what do you mean? What thing have my mom and Daddy Yu done?”
Gu Yuxuan felt embarrassed at the question and regretted that she should not have said something inappropriate before a child. Now, she did not know how to explain to her. It looked like she had shot oneself in the foot.
Yun Muxi quickly went to Niannian and said with a smile, “Niannian, what do you want to have for dinner? I’ll cook a great meal for you.”
Niannian was distracted by her words and started to think about the question with her head on one side.
Seeing this, the three adults let out a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off their foreheads.
After a moment of consideration, Niannian looked at Yun Muxi seriously. Her big eyes were bright as she answered, “Mom, I want to eat prawns and braised pork chops.”
Yun Muxi nodded gently and said in a soft voice, “Okay, I’m on it.”
Gu Yuxuan looked up at Gong Yu and tried to remind Yun Muxi. “Xiao Xi, help Gong Yu to dress his wound. It’s bleeding.”
On hearing this, Yun Muxi finally realized Gong Yu’s presence, which she had forgotten when she managed to distract Niannian. She looked back at Gong Yu and found his forehead indeed still bleeding. Blood had flowed to the corner of his eyes.
Yun Muxi turned around and took out a box of medicine under the table. She then said to Gong Yu flatly, “Sit down, let me dress your wound.”
Gong Yu sat down with his amber eyes closely fixed on Yun Muxi, who dared not to look back at his moving expression.
Gu Yuxuan took Niannian into the bathroom to clean her hands before taking her to play in her bedroom. They left the two alone.
Yun Muxi cleaned Gong Yu’s wound with alcohol, wiping the bloodstain off. In fact, it was not that painful to Gong Yu, who had grown up with martial arts training, however, in order to win her sympathy, he kept groaning.
Yun Muxi became gentle as she heard his groans, blowing the wound with her mouth. Gong Yu enjoyed her treatment and wore a sweet smile. He was really happy.
The wound was not deep and was just a small cut that could be covered by the hair on Gong Yu’s forehead. After cleaning up the wound, Yun Muxi put a Band-Aid on it and said, “The cut was not deep. Take care of it and you won’t get a scar there.”
Gong Yu asked with a frown, “What if it leaves a scar there?”
Yun Muxi took a careful look at the wound again and answered after a while of thinking, “No, it won’t. The cut is very small, and you can cover it with your hair. Therefore, even if you get a scar there, it is no big deal.”
Gong Yu said coldly, “If it leaves a scar, you have to take the responsibility. As an actor, I have to make a living with my face, and my career will be ended if I have a scar on my face.”
Yun Muxi could not understand the deeper meaning of Gong Yu’s words until this moment. She finally realized that she had fallen into his trap again and was speechless for a while before speaking. “Don’t be so childish, Gong Yu. You’re a grown man. Are you hoping that I’ll marry you to take responsibility for your scar if there will be one?”
Gong Yu pretended to consider her words before answering, “Well, good suggestion.”
Yun Muxi was caught by anger and shouted, “Gong Yu, you’re too much! Don’t pretend to be a child because it suits you! You’re being too insatiable!”
Gong Yu put on a hurt expression, lowering his gaze, pursing up his lips, looking aggrieved and insulted. He said in a low voice, “You pushed me down, and because of this, I hit my forehead. How could you still be so mean to me?”
Yun Muxi was wordless at Gong Yu and did not know how to communicate with such a childish man further. Although she had been raising Niannian for three years, she really did not know how to comfort a vexatious child. Niannian was always well-behaved, so, it did not take Yun Muxi too much effort to take care of her. Now, Gong Yu’s puerile behavior really troubled her.
Yun Muxi turned around, put the box back and went to the kitchen without paying any attention to Gong Yu.
A smile played around the corner of Gong Yu’s mouth as he saw Yun Muxi suppress her anger and frustration, and he was in a good mood again. He loved to play tricks on her even more as she looked so cute when being made fun of.
Watching her back disappear into the kitchen, Gong Yu withdrew his sight and went to the bedroom.
Niannian’s eyes lit up and as bright as stars when she saw Gong Yu come in. She reached out her hands for him while calling in a sweet voice, “Daddy Yu…”
