Her Clingy Husband

Proofread by Yu Bing

Su Ni buries her head deeply into Gu Zechen’s chest and rubs against his chest. Soon tears stain her face. It is a quiet night.

They don’t know how long they drive on the road, and when Su Ni wakes up again, there is already neon lights flashing outside, which looks familiar. Through the flickering lights, Su Ni looks at Gu Zechen’s calm and indifferent face. There is a trace of blood on his mouth. Su Ni stretches out her hands and gently touches him. Gu Zechen feels painful but looks at her with an expressionless face.

“It hurts, right?” Her gaze slowly wanders to Gu Zechen’s arm, which is bandaged. However, Su Ni still remembers the blood oozing out from his arm. If it weren’t for Gu Zechen’s agility, the bullet would have penetrated Gu Zechen’s arm.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Su Ni sniffles as her nose gets sore, “It must hurt.”

“It’s fine.” He slowly smooths Su Ni’s hair with a faint smile.

The Audi eventually stops at Gu’s door, and Gu Zechen carries Su Ni in his arms as soon as he gets off. Su Ni looks behind him but doesn’t find Gu Lang or Luo Qing.

“They go away to treat their wounds first. They’re fine.” Gu Zechen says.

Su Ni nods. It is rare that Gu Zechen’s tone is warm, but perhaps because he is exhausted due to his injuries. Su Ni hugs Gu Zechen’s neck tightly and sniffles twice.

The house is illuminated.

“Put me down.” Looking at the several cars parked at the entrance, Su Ni suddenly remembers that Gu’s families will come tonight. She suddenly becomes nervous.

Su Ni and his families barely have any interactions, but now it is rude for her to show up like this. So Su Ni is in an awkward situation now.

“They’re just guests. You don’t have to pay any attention to them at all if you don’t want to.” Gu Zechen still hugs Su Ni and explains indifferently.

Su Ni whispers. She is puzzled, but at this time, Gu Zechen has already entered the hall. Su Ni’s eyes are stung by the strong light and are somewhat uncomfortable.

“Zechen is back.” An Rong is the first to stand up and comes up to greet them.

“I’ll go upstairs first.” Gu Zechen goes stairs straightly without even saying hello to An Rong.

An Rong’s face stiffens as she watches Gu Zechen walking away. She doesn’t know what happened, what’s worse, the eyes behind her make An Rong even more uncomfortable.

“It might be that Su Ni isn’t feeling well, and Zechen will be downstairs later.” An Rong smiles and goes back to the dining room.

At this time, there are six or seven people sitting around the table and an old man, Gu Zechen’s grandfather, is sitting at the end of the table, who is already angry by the way Gu Zechen ignores him. Miao Cuiqing, wife of his second son, is on the side to pacify the old man.

“Dad, don’t be angry. Zechen is coming down soon.” An Rong consoles him. Facing the reproachful eyes of her sisters-in-laws, An Rong smiles with little confidence.

“Humph!”

The old man snorts, “It’s fine to keep people waiting for half a day. But he doesn’t even say hello when he comes back. Is this the way you teach your son all these years?”

As soon as An Rong hears what the old man says, she becomes very angry. She doesn’t want to contradict anyone, but she won’t like to be bullied. She says calmly. “Zechen always has his own way and these years he runs the company very well. I believe that he has his reason today.”

An Rong knows her son. Although he doesn’t like these people, he won’t deliberately come back so late. Besides, Su Ni is not an unthoughtful person. An Rong has every reason to worry about what happened to Su Ni and Gu Zechen.

An Rong says and looks upstairs, but there is no sound.

Lan Qianqian, wife of the third son, sneers and says with sarcasm. “Zechen has been up there for a while. Is he planning to come downstairs or just ignore us?”

An Rong wears a long face. “Sister, you should not speak like that.”

Miao Cuiqing says in a gentle voice. She adds. “Ze Chen’s grandpa is still here, so he will definitely come.”

Lan Qianqian glances at Miao Cuiqing, looking unhappy, and teases her. “It’s true. Zechen isn’t the only one who doesn’t show up today. I heard that Gu Lang has recently signed a contract with sky-high reward. I guess he can’t show up also.”

Miao Cuiqing has a mild temperament, so although what Lan Qianqian says irritates her, she can do nothing, just standing there, speechless. She called Gu Lang many times this afternoon. Gu Lang promised her. But he doesn’t show up now and she doesn’t know what happened. Lan Qianqian wants to continue her sarcasm, but she is pulled back by her husband, who signals her to shut up.”

“Why shup up? Aren’t there any rules in this Gu family? Dad has been waiting for them for a long time, and now we miss the dinner. I think we should just leave. It seems that we are unwelcome guests.” Lan Qianqian twists her body, extraordinarily unhappy.

An Rong quietly eats her meal, ignoring the sarcastic tone. Soon the old man can’t stand it any longer and roars. “Just eat, OK?”

Then it becomes quiet.

Upstairs, Gu Zechen places Su Ni in the bathtub and begins to change his clothes.

“I think I should go down.” Su Ni knows it is rude not to say hello in person.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.”

Gu Zechen kisses her on her forehead gently. “Take a rest after your bath, and I’ll have someone send some foods up later.”

Su Ni feels uneasy and pulls Gu Zechen’s hand with her eyes as if begging him to stay.

“I’ll come back soon.” Gu Zechen frowns. He has to go downstairs, for there are more things he needs to take care of.

“Alright.” Su Ni compromises.

Downstairs.

Gu Zechen has changed into a suit, and the gauze used to wrap the wounds has been removed. He has a calm countenance and sits down naturally, next to the old man.

“Well, someone is really arrogant and makes the old man wait for a long time. I think we have to go up and invite you.” Lan Qianqian sees Gu Zechen sitting down and eating with no intention of greeting, and she begins to scoff.

“We don’t invite you, but you still come uninvited.” Gu Zechen is hungry, so he responds to her in a calm way after finishing eating.

“Gu Zechen, what do you mean by saying this? So what, can’t I come to this place?” Lan Qianqian doesn’t expect Gu Zechen to be so disrespectful, and immediately yells in front of the old man.

“Zechen, don’t be rude!” An Rong reminds him.

Gu Zechen doesn’t say anything, and he just eats quietly. Lan Qianqian suffers a setback. Her exquisite makeup can’t hide the anger on her face. She puts her chopsticks on the table and looks sideways.

“How is the company lately?” The old man asks.

“It’s okay.” Gu Zechen nods his head and answers simply.

The old man isn’t as angry as Lan Qianqian, but instead nods his head in satisfaction. Now Gu’s company is famous in Nancheng City, which is his glory.
