The Delicate Cannon Fodder Is Coveted By Her Ex-Husband In The Love Show Chapter 45
byChapter 45: “So Sweet.”
Chapter 45
Seeing Chen Jin’s predictions consistently miss the mark, the other guests and hosts in the studio couldn’t help but laugh.
“Director Chen, it looks like you’ve misjudged this time.”
Some of the subsequent clips left Chen Jin utterly stunned.
The man who stood up for Pei Huaixue on the show was Gu Minghe?
The one who actively played games just to share a room with Pei Huaixue was also Gu Minghe?
The one who flirted with Pei Huaixue, making him blush, the one who thoughtfully made breakfast for Pei Huaixue and didn’t mind sharing it—all of these were Gu Minghe!
So, this is what Gu Minghe was like when he was in love?
Chen Jin had always thought that the Gu Minghe he knew was naturally oblivious to romance, which was why he was completely uninterested in the various temptations of the entertainment industry. Yet, just one small dating show was enough to make this Film Emperor Gu fall head over heels.
How did this Pei Huaixue possess such power?
Chen Jin focused his attention on Pei Huaixue. After just a few glances, he couldn’t help but sigh in admiration—that face was too beautiful, too perfect for the big screen.
No wonder even someone with Gu Minghe’s strong willpower was captivated by Pei Huaixue.
He sighed a few times, noticing that the first episode was nearing its end.
The production team placed Gu Minghe’s solo interview from the first day of the show at the very end.
When Xiao Shu asked him why he had, against all odds, decided to participate in a dating show, Gu Minghe stated that he came to pursue Pei Huaixue. Everyone in the studio gasped in astonishment.
When this episode was filmed, Gu Minghe and Pei Huaixue’s childhood sweetheart relationship hadn’t been exposed. So, even if the guests had seen the Trending Search, they mostly assumed Gu Minghe had fallen for Pei Huaixue at first sight on the show. Hearing Gu Minghe openly admit that he came specifically to chase his wife stunned everyone.
Chen Jin murmured, “I knew it. Why would this man suddenly want to date? Turns out he had his eye on him long ago.”
“I didn’t realize Film Emperor Gu was so good at pursuing someone.”
“That feels so romantic!”
“Romance is always sweeter when you watch other people have it!”
The guests wore expressions of utter delight.
In the villa, although everyone was mentally prepared after seeing this clip, they were still deeply moved.
After all, at the start of the show, Pei Huaixue’s reputation was poor, and he was fixated on Gu Yanchen. Yet, Gu Minghe still came to pursue his wife, seemingly unconcerned about being laughed at—ridiculed for being a Film Emperor who couldn’t even win his wife back—if he failed.
He must truly be madly in love with Pei Huaixue.
Fortunately, Pei Huaixue had finally given up on Gu Yanchen and accepted Gu Minghe’s pursuit.
Instantly, some were envious, and others felt a pang of jealousy.
Xia Mu, in particular, was intensely jealous that Pei Huaixue had such a loving, famous, and wealthy childhood sweetheart.
But no matter how jealous he was, it was useless; Gu Minghe wouldn’t spare him a glance.
The netizens were incredibly touched.
-Wuwu, what kind of divine love is this?!
-Gu Minghe and Pei Huaixue, you two must last forever!
-I never thought this CP would be so shippable, I’m so moved.
-Childhood sweethearts finally become husband and wife. Congratulations to Film Emperor Gu on successfully winning his wife!
-Our little couple is truly too happy!!
In this warm atmosphere, only Pei Huaixue buried his head tightly in Gu Minghe’s arms, not saying a word.
Gu Minghe noticed his unusual mood and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you sleepy?”
Pei Huaixue shook his head.
He mumbled, “I’m fine.”
He certainly didn’t sound fine.
Gu Minghe frowned, cupped his chin, and forced him to look up. He saw that Pei Huaixue’s eyes had turned red at some point. He held back his tears, looking wronged and pitiful. “I, I was just yawning. I’m not really going to cry.”
Gu Minghe smiled, not exposing his lie. He simply rubbed his head, letting him continue to nestle against his chest. Whether he cried or laughed, with Gu Minghe protecting him, he could do whatever he wanted.
…
After watching the show, everyone returned to their rooms, and it was time to wash up and end the live stream.
The moment the live stream ended, Pei Huaixue couldn’t hold back anymore. He threw himself onto Gu Minghe and sobbed loudly, wiping snot and tears all over his husband.
Gu Minghe seemed to know why he was crying. He didn’t frown once, just silently wiped away his tears. Only when Pei Huaixue was tired from crying did he gently pat his back and soothe him softly, “Are you feeling a little better now that you’ve cried it out?”
“Not enough.” Pei Huaixue rubbed his head against his husband’s chest, his voice full of apology and heartache.
“Husband, I’m sorry. When I suddenly asked for a divorce, you must have been very sad, right?”
“I did so many things that made you unhappy. Don’t you blame me at all?”
Now that the mission was over and the plot had been reversed, Pei Huaixue could finally open up and talk to Gu Minghe about these things. He didn’t want these misunderstandings to persist between them, so he planned to confess everything to Gu Minghe tonight.
He opened his mouth, intending to tell Gu Minghe the truth. However, the moment he tried to speak, a sharp pain suddenly struck his chest. Pei Huaixue’s face went pale, and all the words were blocked in his throat, unable to make a sound.
Gu Minghe saw that Pei Huaixue seemed to have something to say and listened quietly, but after waiting for a long time, Pei Huaixue didn’t continue.
He looked up and saw that Pei Huaixue’s face was very pale, and his eyes were somewhat vacant.
His brow twitched. He quickly cupped Pei Huaixue’s face and anxiously asked him, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?”
Pei Huaixue snapped back to reality and shook his head. “I’m fine.”
As long as he didn’t insist on speaking the truth, the pain in his chest would subside.
But hadn’t his mission been completed? Hadn’t the plot been reversed? Why couldn’t he still say whatever he wanted?
If he couldn’t tell Gu Minghe the truth, wouldn’t that misunderstanding always remain between them?
Thinking of this, Pei Huaixue was nearly frantic with tears.
He opened his mouth, trying hard to organize his words, attempting to avoid certain terms related to the plot mission so that Gu Minghe could understand. But as soon as that thought emerged, the pain in his chest surged like a turbulent sea. He bit his lip hard, restraining himself from crying out in pain, causing his soft lips to break the skin.
“Pei Huaixue, Pei Huaixue, stop biting!”
Someone slipped a finger into his mouth, forcing him to open it and stop hurting himself.
Pei Huaixue’s eyes cleared, but tears streamed down his face. He felt like he had become mute, only able to anxiously babble incoherent, incomprehensible sounds.
Until Gu Minghe leaned in and kissed him, blocking his words.
Gu Minghe kissed him very gently, his tongue carefully licking the broken skin on Pei Huaixue’s lip. While kissing, he soothed him, “Wife, you don’t need to say it. I know everything you want to say.”
“I have never blamed you, and there are no misunderstandings between us.”
“You just need to know that no matter how this world changes, Gu Minghe will always love Pei Huaixue.”
Salty, hot tears fell onto their tightly pressed lips, mixing with the faint, sweet blood from his lip, and were kissed away completely.
Gu Minghe’s iron-like arms tightly embraced Pei Huaixue. He stood up, holding him, one hand gripping Pei Huaixue’s waist and the other supporting his butt. He kissed him while walking toward the bathroom.
Pei Huaixue was crying hard and being kissed so intensely that the thin air in his lungs was stolen. He could only clamp his legs around Gu Minghe’s waist, hanging entirely on the man’s tall, muscular body, allowing himself to be handled as he pleased.
Their clothes fell to the floor one by one; by the time they reached the bathroom, they were completely naked.
…
Soon, Pei Huaixue forgot why he was crying.
Because he cried all night long, trembling and exhausted, his throat hoarse. Yet, his tears continued to flood, dampening every place he touched.
“So sweet.”
In the darkness, the hands covering his eyes were gently pulled away. The man kissed the tears spilling from the corner of his eye and praised, “My Xuexue is the sweetest.”
Pei Huaixue felt his face burning intensely.
