Chapter 145: Chapter 145: You’re Ruthless
Sitting on the floor?
For Tang Yuxiu, this is even more unbearable than eating on the coffee table!
Gu Yan continued eating her food casually, saying nonchalantly, "Either don’t eat, eat like this, or there’s a third option, which is to serve yourself and eat at the dining table alone."
She just liked to sit on the floor like this, eating while watching TV, he could deal with it however he liked.
Tang Yuxiu’s face was dark, and the hand holding his chopsticks seemed on the verge of snapping them.
Gu Yan swallowed secretly, eyeing him warily, "You wouldn’t want to hit me, would you?"
Tang Yuxiu glared at her sullenly.
Feeling creeped out by his stare, Gu Yan shifted her position, putting a bit more distance between them.
"Men who hit women aren’t good men, and I’m already covered in bruises, how could you bear to lay a hand on me?"
As Gu Yan spoke, her expression became increasingly pitiable.
Seeing her like this, Tang Yuxiu thought of the bruises on her body and after a long while, gritted his teeth to say three words, "You win this time!"
He angrily grabbed some food and put it in his mouth, chewing twice before swallowing.
Gu Yan raised an eyebrow, it seemed he picked something he didn’t like to eat—celery—and ate it without realizing; he must be really pissed at her.
These past few days, she clearly understood how severe Tang Yuxiu’s cleanliness obsession was, along with his compulsion to see everything spotless.
Seeing him now sitting on the sofa, bent over to eat, with an expression as if suffering from constipation, why did she find it so amusing?
Gu Yan enjoyed her meal, but Tang Yuxiu ended up with indigestion.
After resting for a short while post-dinner, Gu Yan was the first to head to the bathroom to take a shower.
Undressing in front of the mirror, she discovered not just the bruise on her right shoulder, but also a long mark stretching from her left shoulder to her right waist on her back.
Because her right hand couldn’t move and couldn’t get wet, Gu Yan could only use a towel to wipe her body, but with her exaggerated movements, she occasionally pulled at the bruises on her shoulder and back, leaving her frowning in pain.
After a rather painful shower, she finally came out of the bathroom nearly an hour later. Tang Yuxiu was already in the bedroom, sitting cross-legged on the black bed, studying the medicinal liquor Gu Yan had bought in his hand.
Seeing her come out, he spoke, "Come here."
Gu Yan walked over, "What’s up?"
"Lie down." He placed the medicinal liquor on the bedside table, and stood up.
Gu Yan was puzzled, "Lie down for what?"
Tang Yuxiu slightly lowered his head, glancing at her, "To apply the medicinal liquor on you."
Gu Yan blinked, "You want to apply the medicinal liquor on me? You’re not disgusted?"
Would he even touch this smelly liquid? Wouldn’t he just toss it out the moment he opened the cap?
Gu Yan was seriously skeptical.
Tang Yuxiu frowned slightly, showing a hint of impatience on his face, "Why do you ask so much? Just lie down. Can you even apply it on yourself?"
Gu Yan remembered the long scar on her back; no matter how much she twisted her arm, she couldn’t reach it, she really couldn’t apply it herself.
However, if he had to do it, the injuries on her back... wouldn’t she be exposed in front of him again!
"What are you still dawdling for? How much more time do you want to waste? Do you have work tomorrow?" Tang Yuxiu fired off three consecutive questions, leaving Gu Yan unable to retort.
"You better not take advantage of me." Gu Yan warned him.
"Ha." Tang Yuxiu snorted with disdain, casting a seemingly contemptuous look at her figure, "Even though I’ve seen you all over, rest assured, I’m still not interested."
