The setting sun's afterglow warmly spilled over his figure, coating Gu Yelin's cold, hard edges with a layer of warmth. An Yiqing gazed softly at this scene, suddenly feeling that this might just be what the happiest life looks like.
Feeling the gaze from behind, Gu Yelin turned around, his icy black pupils deeply looking into An Yiqing, with a thick layer of tenderness hidden deep within.
"Awake? Does it still hurt?"
An Yiqing moved her body a bit, "Mm, it's ok, I can bear it."
She checked her body, and the originally bruised and swollen skin had turned white, and the swelling had subsided a lot. Besides some pain, her body didn't feel much discomfort now.
Without thinking, she knew it must be thanks to Gu Yelin.
"Just lie down; the meal will be ready soon."
An Yiqing smiled and nodded her head, letting Gu Yelin busy himself in the kitchen while she languidly leaned on the bed and stared at him in a daze.
