The Delicate Cannon Fodder Is Coveted By Her Ex-Husband In The Love Show Chapter 27
byChapter 27 The Big Villain and the Little Naughty Cat
Chapter Twenty-Seven
On the Trending Search, the term about Pei Huaixue and Gu Minghe kissing on the dating show was still hanging high at the number one spot.
People kept clicking in, intending to curse the sensationalism, only to unexpectedly emerge having been fed sweet romance.
Under the marketing account videos, passersby continuously became fans, commenting, “So sweet,” “I’m shipping this,” “Isn’t this way better than Gu Yanchen x Pei Huaixue??”
“Oh my god, are dating shows playing this big now? Is this real or just a script from the production team??”
“Given Gu Minghe’s status, it shouldn’t be scripted, right?”
“But Pei Huaixue clearly likes Gu Yanchen. Is Gu Minghe trying to steal his brother’s person?”
“Gu Yanchen and Pei Huaixue aren’t together, so it’s perfectly normal for Gu Minghe to pursue Pei Huaixue!”
“Whether it’s real or fake, I’m already shipping them. Pei Huaixue is so beautiful, no wonder Film Emperor Gu likes him!”
Netizens finally realized that Gu Minghe seemed genuinely fond of Pei Huaixue, which was why he was showing him affection on the show, and not for the sake of his so-called brother and sister-in-law’s happiness.
Those anti-fans of Pei Huaixue, who had originally hoped Gu Minghe would step in to teach Pei Huaixue a lesson, were furious when they saw no lesson being taught, but rather Gu Minghe defecting to the enemy side.
They jumped up and down on the Trending Search, posting fabricated dirt on Pei Huaixue, trying to sway the public’s perception of him.
However, not long after they posted, those so-called black materials were immediately blocked, and their accounts were subsequently banned. The Weibo square was left with only cheers from the Shippers.
“I hadn’t noticed before, but now that I look back, I realize Gu Minghe’s attitude has been strange since the very first day he arrived on the dating show!”
A shipping blogger began leading the newly joined fans, analyzing the interactions from day one.
“On the Star Track Amusement Park date, Pei Huaixue was so dismissive of Gu Minghe that they had to walk separately. Yet, Film Emperor Gu, who is usually cold-tempered and aloof, not only didn’t get angry but even lent Pei Huaixue his jacket.”
“That’s Gu Minghe, who is a germaphobe, lending his jacket to someone he just met. Gu Minghe has been acting abnormally since then.”
“Later, when dividing rooms, he actually volunteered to share a room with Pei Huaixue, and during the musical chairs game, he deliberately pulled Pei Huaixue into his arms.”
The video of the musical chairs game was dug up by netizens, magnified under a microscope, and analyzed frame by frame.
Afterward, his actions of willingly eating Pei Huaixue’s leftover breakfast, giving Pei Huaixue a massage, and helping Pei Huaixue with chores, all became ironclad evidence of Gu Minghe coveting Pei Huaixue.
When netizens’ attention shifted away from the love triangle involving Pei Huaixue and the two Gu brothers, they realized that the interactions between Pei Huaixue and Gu Minghe were incredibly shippable!
Just then, the official Weibo account for the show, Let’s Fall in Love!, posted a new update.
“An exciting, sweet two-person live stream benefit is coming soon! Which CP pair do you want to see live stream together? Hurry and vote! Web link [Heart]”
Opening the webpage, one could see that every pair of guests had been grouped into a CP.
According to the rules, the top three CPs with the most votes would get a two-person live stream.
Previously, the Gu-Su Shippers had been far ahead, but today, the CP of Pei Huaixue and Gu Minghe suddenly surged. With their passion running high, fans flooded the website to cast their votes for them.
In the room, the live stream had been turned off.
Pei Huaixue sat on the edge of the bed. He had just come out of the shower, his small face flushed pink from the steam. He bit his lip, pulled up his pajama bottoms, revealing his snow-white, soft thighs and his knees, which were bruised blue and purple from a fall.
He had run too fast and tripped during the game earlier. He hadn’t felt much downstairs, but now that he was still, it started to hurt.
He frowned and gently rubbed his knees.
“It hurts so much…”
Pei Huaixue couldn’t stand the pain, and cold sweat quickly beaded on his forehead.
He got up, intending to fetch some medicated oil to apply. Before his feet even touched the floor, he was scooped up by the back of his knees.
Gu Minghe walked out of the bathroom. Having just showered, his bathrobe was open, revealing his broad, muscular chest. Unwiped water droplets slid over his firm chest and abdomen, drawing Pei Huaixue’s gaze.
“W-what are you doing?”
Pei Huaixue snapped back to reality, finding himself sitting on Gu Minghe’s lap.
The man held his ankle with one hand, his eyes lingering on the bruised knee. “Sit still. I’ll help you apply some medicine.”
In his other hand, he held a bottle of medicated oil.
He twisted open the bottle, poured some into his palm, and rubbed his hands vigorously until his palms were slightly warm. Only then did he carefully cover Pei Huaixue’s knee, unwilling to hurt the person in his arms even slightly.
Pei Huaixue’s body was very sensitive. Just having the medicated oil applied made him tremble uncontrollably.
He buried his face in Gu Minghe’s chest and asked after a long while, “Are you done yet?”
Gu Minghe’s movements were too light, too ticklish. His rough fingers kept circling the top of the knee, making Pei Huaixue’s toes curl involuntarily. He gasped lightly, trying to escape from Gu Minghe’s embrace, but a large hand pressed him back.
“Baby, the medicated oil needs to be rubbed in for a while to absorb properly. Be good, don’t move.”
Fine…
Pei Huaixue obediently nestled back into his arms.
He didn’t know how long he was rubbed, but Pei Huaixue finally couldn’t stand the itchiness anymore. He shook his snow-white, slender legs and complained, “Stop rubbing, stop rubbing! Why do you need to rub for so long? You’re doing this on purpose!”
Gu Minghe, however, was relentless. His large hand squeezed the soft flesh between Pei Huaixue’s legs, stating without question, “Let me check if there are any other injuries.”
Before Pei Huaixue could react, the hem of his pajamas was lifted up.
When Gu Minghe said he was checking, he was checking seriously.
His gaze was calm, devoid of any lust, as he meticulously examined every part of Pei Huaixue’s body. Only after confirming there were no terrible bruises did he let the person go.
Gu Minghe might not have thought much of it, but Pei Huaixue was left flustered by his actions.
Especially those kisses during the game tonight.
Just thinking about them made him feel hot all over.
Pei Huaixue wanted another kiss.
But he couldn’t bring himself to ask.
After all, they were divorced, and he couldn’t find an excuse to demand a kiss from his ex-husband.
He could only blush and awkwardly say, “Gu Minghe, I was so mean to you today. Aren’t you angry? And you’re still so thoughtful, helping me with the medicine.”
Gu Minghe’s hand, which was rubbing Pei Huaixue’s waist, paused. He thought carefully and asked, “Was that so?”
Was his wife really mean to him?
Pei Huaixue widened his eyes. “Wasn’t I?! I was ordering you around all day and saying bad things about you! I was very, very naughty!”
He was the designated Vicious Cannon Fodder in this book. How could Gu Minghe not notice his naughtiness?!
Gu Minghe was amused by his cute appearance, shouting that he was a little naughty cat. He pursed his lips, carried him into the covers, and tucked him in.
He placed a kiss on Pei Huaixue’s forehead and said gently, “Then Baby can be even naughtier to me.”
Pei Huaixue blinked.
Like that?
Then…
With a mischievous glint in his eye, he reached out and hooked his arms around Gu Minghe’s neck, commanding sweetly, “Then I want you to kiss me. You’re not allowed to refuse.”
“That’s enough, no more kissing.”
Pei Huaixue, his lips swollen and his breath ragged, pushed the person pressing down on him away. “You can only kiss me up to this point.”
Gu Minghe’s voice was hoarse, his eyes dark. “Baby, the fire you started hasn’t been put out yet…”
“You figure it out yourself,” Pei Huaixue said with a cold expression. “I’m a big villain; I won’t be that nice to you.”
“Alright, then good night, Baby.”
Gu Minghe didn’t press the issue and returned to his own bed.
The room lights went out. The moonlight, like water, streamed through the window. Pei Huaixue wrapped himself tightly in the blanket and fell into a deep sleep.
He didn’t notice that in the darkness, a pair of wolf-like eyes were fixed intently on him, as if wanting to devour him, sending shivers down one’s spine.
That night, Pei Huaixue did not sleep soundly.
He kept feeling like something was watching him. He had fallen into a wild beast’s territory, running endlessly, but unable to escape. Behind him, a large lion was chasing him…
As he ran, he stumbled and fell. Turning back, the large lion caught up, but the moment it pounced, the lion transformed into Gu Minghe.
A hunter’s bullet pierced Gu Minghe’s heart, and hot blood splattered onto Pei Huaixue’s face.
He watched in horror as Gu Minghe collapsed in front of him, covered in blood, his face pale. His body trembled uncontrollably, and the fear and terror he could no longer contain erupted in a scream from his throat.
“Ah—”
Pei Huaixue woke up, gasping for air. His face was soaked with tears, wetting his snow-white cheeks, making him look fragile and delicate.
Clutching his face tightly, he thought of the terrifying scene in his dream. He frantically turned his head to look at Gu Minghe’s bed.
Under the moonlight, the bed was empty.
Gu Minghe was nowhere to be seen.
Fear coiled around his heart again. Pei Huaixue’s voice trembled, and he cried severely, “Husband, where did you go?”
He completely failed to notice the strangeness of his own body.
“Baby, Husband is right here.”
Just as Pei Huaixue was crying uncontrollably, the man’s deep, husky voice sounded next to his ear. A pair of arms, hard as iron, wrapped tightly around him from behind. Pei Huaixue was pressed against a warm, muscular chest. He slowly came back to his senses and looked at the person who had appeared in his bed sometime earlier.
Borrowing the moonlight, he met Gu Minghe’s dark, intense eyes. His body trembled again involuntarily.
Only then did he realize that his clothes had been stripped off; he was wearing nothing.
The skin on his inner thighs was stinging painfully.
It felt exactly like that morning long ago when he woke up and his inner thighs were sore when he walked. At the time, he thought it was due to the fabric of his clothes rubbing or maybe an insect bite. Now, looking at Gu Minghe, who was holding and comforting him, Pei Huaixue gritted his teeth, his cheeks flushed crimson. He glared at him with watery, shimmering eyes and huffed angrily, “Gu Minghe, you’re the real big villain! I worried about you for nothing!”
