The Delicate Cannon Fodder Is Coveted By Her Ex-Husband In The Love Show Chapter 43
byChapter 43: Will You Remarry Me?
Chapter Forty-Three
Gu Yanchen was quite puzzled.
Thank him for what? He hadn’t done anything.
Before he could ask for clarification, Pei Huaixue abandoned him and ran off like a whirlwind, leaving Gu Yanchen holding the large shopping bags, a look of speechlessness plastered on his face.
So, he was thanking him for being his porter.
-What did Pei Huaixue mean by that? Did he finally figure things out and realize the person he truly likes is Gu Minghe?
-What made him suddenly realize it?!
-Ahhh, is he going back to confess? So exciting!!
-Did I miss something? It feels like the world suddenly changed.
-I have to say, CEO Gu is miserable. Pei Huaixue just abandoned him and left, hahaha.
-CEO Gu, accept your fate. Carrying things for the great beauty is your blessing (laugh).
-Don’t be confused, CEO Gu, you should hurry back too! Su Jin is about to die of anxiety!
On the way back, Pei Huaixue was excited the entire time.
For the past few days, he had been forced to separate from Gu Minghe, forced to accept the fact that he was the Vicious Cannon Fodder, and forced to do things he disliked for the sake of the mission plot. Now, he could finally say goodbye to all of it.
From now on, Pei Huaixue would no longer be that short-lived Vicious Cannon Fodder!
He no longer had to worry every time he got close to Gu Minghe!
Gu Minghe wouldn’t be harmed because of him again.
The whole world suddenly became beautiful.
Pei Huaixue’s mood was buoyant. After celebrating with him in his mind, 029 suddenly said, “Host, your mission is complete. I should also leave this world now.”
Pei Huaixue paused, feeling a pang of reluctance.
“029, you’re leaving so soon? Can’t you stay a little longer?”
[I can’t. The Transmigration Bureau has heavy tasks. I still need to rush off to save the Vicious Cannon Fodder in the next book. Goodbye, Host. We will meet again if fate allows.]
Although 029 always pushed him to do things he didn’t like, Pei Huaixue had gradually grown fond of having this electronic pet in his mind. Learning that it was leaving so suddenly made him feel hurt.
His eyes instantly turned red, and he held back for a long time to keep the tears from falling.
“Alright then, 029. I wish you all the best. Goodbye.”
He waved goodbye to 029 in his heart. After a burst of noisy system static, the voice that always bounced around in his mind completely disappeared, quiet as if it had never existed.
Pei Huaixue raised a hand to wipe his tears.
After the sadness, everything was a new beginning.
He hoped so.
Back at the villa, since they returned so late, everyone else had gone back to their rooms to rest. Only one tall, slender figure was sitting quietly on the sofa, flipping through a script.
Hearing the movement from the entrance, he put down the script and stood up, looking toward the person who appeared at the door.
Pei Huaixue had rushed back and forgotten to grab his coat when he got out of the car, wearing only a thin sweater. His hair still carried a few wisps of cold air. His cheeks were rosy, and his hands were slightly red from the cold. He cupped his hands over his mouth and breathed on them for a moment, then bent down to change into his fuzzy slippers.
The moment he stood up, his vision suddenly went dark, and he crashed into a warm embrace.
The solid chest radiated a continuous stream of heat, driving away the cold from his body.
Pei Huaixue reached out and hugged him tightly as well, burying his small face in that chest and rubbing hard. Finally, he could hug the person he loved without any burden.
He hugged him with great force, his face full of grievances.
“Gu Minghe, I’m back.”
“Welcome back.” Gu Minghe reached out and gently stroked his hair, placing a very light kiss on the top of his head.
Pei Huaixue’s voice was muffled. “I won’t leave again.”
“I know.”
Upon receiving this promise, Gu Minghe’s heart finally settled.
Seeing Pei Huaixue’s reaction, it seemed that the so-called mission must be complete.
Nothing in this world could threaten Pei Huaixue anymore.
That was wonderful.
The two of them stood quietly embracing each other at the entrance. They didn’t know how long they hugged until a cough sounded from the doorway: “Excuse me.”
Gu Yanchen, holding the large shopping bags, looked at the two of them with a forced smile.
“Pei Huaixue, these are the things you bought.” He handed the bags to Pei Huaixue, then looked at Gu Minghe: “All his shopping expenses today, please reimburse me.”
Because the shopping was impulsive, Pei Huaixue hadn’t brought his card, and his phone had just run out of battery, so he had to let Gu Yanchen pay first.
Pei Huaixue snapped back to reality. “Elder Brother, don’t be so stingy. Just consider it an early wedding gift.”
“Wedding gift? Didn’t I already give…”
Gu Yanchen remembered the large sum he had given them when they got married. Then he suddenly remembered that the two had divorced. Seeing how inseparable they looked now, remarriage was a certainty in the future. Wouldn’t he have to give another wedding gift?
“No need. Elder Brother’s wedding gift will still need to be given separately,” Gu Minghe smiled. “Send me the bill.”
With that, he ignored Gu Yanchen’s expression and scooped Pei Huaixue up in his arms.
“We’re going to rest now.”
He brazenly carried Pei Huaixue upstairs right in front of the cameras.
Pei Huaixue’s face was flushed bright red.
Ahhh, this was too embarrassing!
The bullet comments were going crazy shipping them!
-Wait, isn’t the progress too fast for this couple? We didn’t even see a confession, how did they fast-forward to wedding gifts?
-Can you invite me when you two get married? I want to contribute a wedding gift too.
-I can’t handle this, I’m dying from the cuteness! Is Gu Minghe carrying Pei Huaixue to the bridal chamber??
-I feel like they suddenly understood each other’s hearts. What exactly did I miss?!
-Hahaha, so CEO Gu has been completely abandoned by Pei Huaixue now?
-Pei Huaixue liked CEO Gu so much before, how did he suddenly fall for Gu Minghe!
-Su Jin can finally breathe a sigh of relief. The biggest love rival has transferred his affections, hahaha.
The door closed.
Netizens waited eagerly in the live stream, hoping to see some sweet scenes. However, Gu Minghe merely placed Pei Huaixue on the bed and said, “I’m going to take a shower.”
Then he left, abandoning the tens of thousands of netizens in the live stream…
-Ah, why did he just leave? What was I expecting?
-Going to take a shower, is that implying something!
-I guess the scenes that can’t be broadcast will be saved for after the live stream ends. Damn it.
-They must be doing something behind our backs every night, that’s why they suddenly fell in love.
-So Pei Huaixue’s feelings for Gu Minghe are “love that grew over time”?
-Why is my face suddenly turning yellow?
-We can only rely on R-rated fanfiction for imagination.
The netizens were instantly filled with regret.
Pei Huaixue sat on the bed, feeling incredibly nervous thinking about what was about to happen.
It had been a long time since he and Gu Minghe had done *that*. The thought made him shy. He couldn’t help but cover his hot cheeks with his hands and roll around on the bed.
Yet, his heart was filled with anticipation.
After more than half an hour, Gu Minghe finished his shower and came out.
He was wearing a half-open bathrobe, revealing a large expanse of chest muscle. Pei Huaixue only needed one look and couldn’t tear his eyes away. He swallowed hard and stammered, “I’m going to shower too.”
Then he quickly darted into the bathroom.
Gu Minghe leaned against the doorway, his deep, pleasant voice carrying a fatal seduction: “No rush. Take your time.”
Of course, Pei Huaixue had to take his time.
He wanted to wash his whole body until he smelled fragrant and looked white, like a delicious and tempting little milk cake, sweet and soft to eat.
Pei Huaixue finally emerged from the bathroom only after the live stream had ended.
When he came out in his bathrobe, his hair was still dripping water. Water droplets slid onto his curled eyelashes, reflecting a dewy sheen. He lifted his direct gaze and slowly walked toward Gu Minghe. His long, straight legs were faintly visible beneath the bathrobe, glowing white.
Gu Minghe watched him calmly. “Why did you take so long?”
“Didn’t you say no rush?” Pei Huaixue smiled, sitting directly on Gu Minghe’s lap. He wrapped his arms around his neck. After feeling a certain presence in a soft area, his smile became even sweeter. “I see you were waiting quite anxiously.”
“Yes, I was very anxious.”
Gu Minghe pinched his chin and unceremoniously began to taste this sweet and soft little milk cake.
Pei Huaixue was kissed until he was dizzy. Just as he wanted to take things further, Gu Minghe pushed him away.
“Dry your hair first.”
“How can you still think about drying hair?” Pei Huaixue complained.
Gu Minghe looked at him amusedly. “If you sleep without drying your hair, you might catch a cold.”
He always prioritized Pei Huaixue’s health above all else and never compromised on such matters.
Pei Huaixue had no choice but to sit obediently, letting Gu Minghe help him blow-dry his hair.
While the hair dryer was running, he almost drifted off to sleep.
The warm air enveloped him, and the familiar sense of security returned. He was completely relaxed now. He yawned lightly, forcing his eyelids open to wait for his hair to dry.
Ten minutes later, the hair was finally dry.
Pei Huaixue eagerly wrapped his arms around Gu Minghe again and kissed him. They tumbled together, kissing with reckless abandon.
The kiss only ended when Pei Huaixue was breathless.
Gu Minghe’s calloused fingers gently traced Pei Huaixue’s swollen lips. His voice hoarse, he asked, “Wife, will you remarry me?”
Pei Huaixue nodded dazedly.
“We’ll remarry after the show ends.”
Gu Minghe frowned. “Why do we have to wait so long?”
Pei Huaixue glared at him. “You only chased me for this short time and you already want to stop? You haven’t properly courted me. Even Gu Yanchen knows to go on a show to chase his wife.”
Gu Minghe looked very innocent. “Baby, haven’t I courted you?”
“Hmph, when did you ever court me?” Pei Huaixue felt annoyed just thinking about it.
It was all his fault for being so easily tricked when he was young!
Back then, right after the college entrance exam, Pei Huaixue originally wanted to confess to Gu Minghe, but he was controlled by the plot and forced to say he liked Gu Yanchen. Then Gu Minghe ordered him not to like Gu Yanchen and only to like him.
Pei Huaixue was tricked away just like that, with only a few words.
Afterward, their progress bar sped up incredibly fast. He hadn’t even experienced the feeling of being relentlessly pursued before he was married!
After listening to Pei Huaixue’s complaints, Gu Minghe thought carefully. It seemed that was indeed the case.
“Alright, I’ll listen to my wife.”
If his wife wanted to experience being courted, he would naturally satisfy her.
Gu Minghe lowered his head and kissed Pei Huaixue again. They were sticky and affectionate, and both were getting aroused. Just as Gu Minghe was about to take the next step, Pei Huaixue fell asleep in his arms.
He was sleeping soundly, his body curled up in his embrace—a position that conveyed immense security.
Was it because he had been under extreme mental and physical stress during this period, and once he relaxed, he immediately fell asleep? Gu Minghe gently pulled the blanket over them. Afraid of waking him, he held his wife and sank into a deep sleep.
