Chapter 21
“I forgot to bring it in.”
Gu Minghe explained in a very serious tone.
However, upon hearing this, Pei Huaixue instinctively looked at the pair of black boxer briefs lying on the bedside table. The moment his eyes landed on them, his face flushed.
Pei Huaixue personally purchased all of Gu Minghe’s intimate wear, and he was very familiar with every piece.
And every piece had been lightly nudged by his fingers or toes.
Pei Huaixue felt his body heat up, his heart pounding like a drum.
He groggily got up and walked to the bedside, his snow-white, slender fingers hooking the underwear, and headed toward the bathroom.
The bullet screen comments exploded at this sight.
– Holy crap, what’s going on? I only left for a little while, how did things escalate to something I don’t understand?
– Gu Minghe forgot to bring his underwear when showering and asked Pei Huaixue to get it for him… Wait, buddy, did you really forget? I don’t believe it!
– Pei Huaixue hooking Gu Minghe’s underwear with his finger looks so hot
– Isn’t the size of Gu Minghe’s underwear a bit too big??
– Pei Huaixue’s hands are so small, but the Film Emperor’s underwear is so large. I’m already imagining the size difference (covering face)
– I totally feel like Gu Minghe is deliberately seducing Pei Huaixue
The netizens watching the live stream, whether they disliked Pei Huaixue or liked him, all felt a sudden urge to ship them.
Pei Huaixue slowly shuffled to the bathroom door and said in a very reserved tone, “I brought it for you, open the door.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the bathroom door slid open with a whoosh.
Pei Huaixue’s eyes instantly widened.
However, the expected sight of abs and chest was nowhere to be seen. Gu Minghe was tightly wrapped in his bathrobe, not exposing anything that shouldn’t be exposed.
Meeting those eager kitten eyes, Gu Minghe chuckled softly, “Want to look?”
“No, I don’t!” Pei Huaixue denied, blushing.
“My body is only for my wife to see.”
“Then your wife might have already gotten tired of looking,” Pei Huaixue huffed softly.
Gu Minghe smiled and reached out his hand, “Where are my briefs?”
Pei Huaixue had unconsciously clenched Gu Minghe’s underwear tightly. Sweat on his palm had dampened the thin fabric, which still retained a faint scent unique to Pei Huaixue’s kitten-like sweetness.
Gu Minghe took the underwear, feeling the slightly damp fabric, and said meaningfully, “Why is it wet? What did you do to it?”
“What could I possibly do to your underwear!”
The little cat was furious and embarrassed, pushing him toward the bathroom, “Hurry up and go wash!”
However, the movement was too forceful, and his hand accidentally tugged Gu Minghe’s bathrobe, threatening to reveal a major benefit to the live stream. Gu Minghe was quick-witted and slammed the bathroom door shut!
– Ah, why did he close the door? I didn’t see anything yet!
– Gu Minghe is too fast!
– I didn’t expect Gu Minghe, who looks so aloof, to actually joke around. Pei Huaixue was so flustered by him, it’s hilarious.
– Is he joking? I feel like he’s sticking up for Elder Brother and Sister-in-law. Pei Huaixue clearly can’t handle it. Isn’t Gu Minghe going to mess with him severely?
– Speaking of Pei Huaixue, where did he go?
In front of the bathroom door, the figure was gone.
Inside the steamy bathroom, Gu Minghe lay on the floor. His chest was wide open, revealing a firm, muscular torso. Water droplets that hadn’t been wiped dry traced the contours of his well-defined muscles, slowly trickling down.
Pei Huaixue straddled his waist, his gaze following the path of the water droplets, making his mouth increasingly dry.
“Baby, can you help me dry off?”
Gu Minghe lowered his voice, tempting the already dazed Pei Huaixue.
“Okay.”
Pei Huaixue had long forgotten where they were, only moving according to his heart’s desire. His soft, small hands covered Gu Minghe’s hard abs, helping him wipe away the moisture little by little.
However, the more he wiped, the more water accumulated on his hands. Unable to tell where it was coming from, Pei Huaixue was almost on the verge of tears.
“Wuwu, Husband, I can’t wipe it clean…”
“Don’t be afraid, Baby, Husband will help you.”
…
– Did Gu Minghe drag Pei Huaixue into the bathroom?
– He went in five minutes ago, why hasn’t he come out yet?
– What are they doing inside??!
– The quality of this privacy glass is too good, we can’t even see a shadow.
The netizens in the live stream were getting impatient.
– Could it be that Gu Minghe was also seduced by Pei Huaixue’s beauty?
– Impossible. Even if Gu Minghe was willing, Pei Huaixue wouldn’t be. Didn’t he keep saying he only liked Gu Yanchen? How could he make a move on Gu Minghe?
– I think Gu Minghe is angry. He must be severely lecturing Pei Huaixue inside, telling him not to play tricks!
– I feel relieved knowing Gu Minghe is keeping an eye on Pei Huaixue. He probably won’t have time to cause trouble for Gu and Su recently.
– Stop talking, they’re coming out! They’re coming out!
About ten minutes later, Pei Huaixue emerged.
His expression was normal, but his steps were slightly unsteady as he returned to the bed. He pulled the quilt over himself, burying himself under the covers. The heat on his face kept rising; he couldn’t even bear to think about what had just happened in the bathroom.
Gu Minghe actually used his fingers to help him…
Pei Huaixue was blushing fiercely.
He and Gu Minghe were already divorced. What did this count as?
Friends with benefits?
But they hadn’t gone that far.
Then it must just be mutual help between friends!
Pei Huaixue thought fuzzily, completely forgetting that he was supposed to keep his distance from Gu Minghe.
Just then, Gu Minghe finished washing and came out.
He rubbed his slightly aching wrist. When Pei Huaixue had bumped into him earlier, his arm scraped the floor, leaving a large bruise.
However, he didn’t pay much attention to this minor accident.
Returning to the room, he saw Pei Huaixue huddled under the covers like a small mound, and a faint curve appeared on his lips.
The live stream was turned off when they slept at night.
Gu Minghe, having participated in many variety shows, was experienced enough to cover the camera with a piece of clothing.
Seeing the camera covered, Pei Huaixue’s hands gripping the quilt tightened slightly.
He blinked. Was Gu Minghe planning to sneak attack him in the middle of the night?
Thinking this, he was too nervous to sleep, and deep down, a secret anticipation arose.
However, after the lights were out, he waited and waited, but Gu Minghe never came. Gradually, sleepiness washed over him, and Pei Huaixue yawned, falling into a deep sleep.
Pei Huaixue overslept again when he woke up in the morning.
He rubbed his messy hair and saw that Gu Minghe’s bed beside him was empty. He felt a little disappointed.
Gu Minghe hadn’t climbed into his bed last night. Could it be that he really didn’t like him anymore because of the divorce?
Pei Huaixue was lost in thought, but his heart settled down when he saw the clothes and socks neatly folded on the bedside table.
This was Gu Minghe’s habit.
Every morning, he would match the clothes Pei Huaixue was going to wear that day and place them next to him. If they weren’t in a rush, he would hold Pei Huaixue on his lap and help him put on his clothes and socks.
Even though they were divorced, Gu Minghe still followed their old routine, taking care of everything for him.
Pei Huaixue couldn’t stop the corners of his mouth from turning up.
As long as Gu Minghe still liked him, everything he was doing now had meaning.
He put on his clothes and got out of bed, but as soon as he stood up, a sharp pulling pain shot through his thigh.
He hissed lightly and quickly sat back down, lifting his pajamas. He then saw a patch of soft, snow-white flesh near his inner thigh that was red and swollen, even broken skin, with residual marks that looked like something had bitten him.
“Could I have been bitten by a bug?” Pei Huaixue was startled.
No way, no way, were the hygiene conditions in this room that poor?
“Or did my pajamas chafe the skin?”
His skin was always delicate; even when wearing the best and most expensive fabrics, he occasionally suffered from chafing.
Regardless of the reason, Pei Huaixue was not happy.
As a result, his posture looked a little strange when he walked downstairs.
– What’s wrong with Pei Huaixue? Why does he look so weird walking?
– Could it be that they did something naughty last night after the live stream was turned off?
– What nonsense! How could Gu Minghe do that kind of thing with Pei Huaixue!
– Exactly! Can Pei Huaixue’s fans stop fantasizing! He’s just walking, and you connect it to so much! I think Pei Huaixue is trying to cause trouble again, walking like that on purpose!
– Gu Minghe is suffering undeserved misfortune.
The live stream was already buzzing with arguments over Pei Huaixue’s walking posture early in the morning.
Downstairs in the dining room.
Xia Mu was bustling diligently in the kitchen. It wasn’t his turn to do chores today, but to impress Gu Minghe, he had been eagerly taking over the cooking since last night.
By now, he had prepared breakfast for all eight people.
He cooked a pot of walnut oatmeal porridge and baked a large sheet of pumpkin pancakes, enthusiastically urging everyone to come and eat while it was hot.
– Wow, Xia Mu is such a good cook. It looks so delicious, I’m drooling!
– With Xia Mu around, no one will go hungry.
– I thought Xia Mu only knew how to make Western food, I didn’t expect his Chinese food to be so tasty too.
– It’s not Xia Mu’s turn today, why did he make breakfast?
Xia Mu scooped a bowl of porridge and sweetly handed it to Gu Minghe.
“Film Emperor Gu, try it and see if it suits your taste?”
Gu Minghe glanced at the walnuts in the porridge and frowned, “Did you put walnuts in it?”
“Yes, don’t you eat walnuts?”
That’s not right. He had checked Gu Minghe’s profile this morning and didn’t see anything about him disliking walnuts.
– Gu Minghe isn’t restricted from eating walnuts. He’s eaten them on other variety shows before.
– Xia Mu is overthinking it.
Gu Minghe’s fans had the same thought as Xia Mu.
Gu Minghe shook his head. “Thank you, but I’ll make my own breakfast.”
This was a polite refusal of Xia Mu’s breakfast.
The smile on Xia Mu’s face faltered slightly.
Seriously? He wouldn’t even give him face?
Was the rumor about Gu Minghe’s aloof personality true?
– Film Emperor Gu is so cold. He just refused like that. Xia Mu looks so pitiful.
– This is Gu Minghe’s true personality, okay? He’s like this with everyone, not just Xia Mu.
– Then why did Gu Minghe seem okay with Pei Huaixue yesterday?
The netizens were momentarily unsure of Gu Minghe’s thoughts.
– But can Gu Minghe cook? As the Young Master of the Gu Family, he probably hasn’t stepped into a kitchen, right?
– Will Gu Minghe’s food be edible?
– We’ve never seen Gu Minghe cook on a variety show before!
– Haha, hope the Film Emperor doesn’t blow up the kitchen.
Gu Minghe got up and went straight to the kitchen.
The netizens in the live stream watched Gu Minghe curiously, waiting to see him fail spectacularly.
However, the next second, Gu Minghe skillfully began preparing ingredients, heating the pan, and starting to make breakfast.
Twenty minutes later, he brought the finished breakfast to the table.
On the plate were two potstickers, a few pieces of pan-fried sausage, a soft-boiled egg cut in half, and a few slices of kiwi.
He then turned back to the kitchen to tend to the red bean porridge that was still cooking.
In just this short amount of time, Gu Minghe had prepared such a rich breakfast.
Everyone watched in astonishment.
“So Film Emperor Gu is a good cook,” Xia Mu said with an awkward smile.
It seemed that trying to win over Gu Minghe with cooking wouldn’t work.
The others nodded in agreement.
It looked tastier than what Xia Mu made. They wanted to try it too.
But Gu Minghe seemed to have only made his own portion.
The netizens in the live stream were also crying from the delicious aroma.
– No wonder he didn’t want Xia Mu’s breakfast, he makes better food himself!
– I didn’t expect Gu Minghe to actually cook!
– Oh my god, Gu Minghe is so suitable to be a husband. Whoever marries him is lucky!
Just then, Pei Huaixue slowly walked down from upstairs.
Smelling the aroma in the dining room, his stomach immediately started rumbling with hunger.
Xia Mu snapped, “I cooked walnut porridge for you, go get it yourself.”
Walnut porridge?
Pei Huaixue frowned.
“I don’t drink walnut porridge.”
He was allergic to walnuts.
Hearing that Pei Huaixue also wouldn’t drink his porridge, Xia Mu was furious.
It was one thing for Gu Minghe not to drink it, but why was Pei Huaixue putting on airs? Did he think Xia Mu was eager to make breakfast for him?
“What kind of attitude is that? I worked hard to make breakfast for you, and not only do I not hear a thank you, but you’re complaining about it!”
Pei Huaixue rubbed his sleepy eyes and explained, “It’s not about you, I just can’t eat walnuts. I’ll get an allergic reaction.”
Saying this, he walked up to the dining table.
When he saw the breakfast laid out before him, his eyes lit up.
It smelled so good!
Sausage, potstickers, soft-boiled egg, and kiwi—all his favorites.
Pei Huaixue recognized it immediately. This was the breakfast made by his dear Husband.
Husband specifically made his favorite foods, so it must be for him.
Pei Huaixue thought happily, sitting down directly and picking up his chopsticks, ready to eat.
Everyone’s expression changed when they saw him start eating without asking.
Xia Mu shrieked, “Pei Huaixue, you can’t eat that! That’s Gu Minghe’s breakfast!”
Netizens were also shocked.
– Holy crap, Pei Huaixue is so rude. How can he just start eating?
– This is the breakfast Gu Minghe worked hard to make. If he eats it, what will Gu Minghe eat?
– It’s over. He’s going to completely infuriate Gu Minghe!
Pei Huaixue blinked, his pearly white teeth already biting into a potsticker, leaving his saliva on it.
Everyone looked despairing.
It’s over, it’s over. Gu Minghe is a germaphobe. Pei Huaixue touched Gu Minghe’s breakfast. Isn’t he making Film Emperor Gu eat his saliva?
Gu Minghe would never eat it. He would definitely scold Pei Huaixue until he cried!
