The Delicate Cannon Fodder Is Coveted By Her Ex-Husband In The Love Show Chapter 60
byChapter 60 Pei Huaixue Wakes Up
Chapter Sixty
For the next few days, the System was constantly bombarded by the sweet affection of the little couple. In desperation, it was forced to go offline, ignoring Pei Huaixue’s repeated calls and remaining stubbornly silent.
Without 029 to help relay messages, Pei Huaixue could only continue lying there, acting as a qualified, beautiful corpse.
Meanwhile, Gu Minghe remained by his side every day, meticulously caring for Pei Huaixue’s body. When Zhong Manzhu entered, she saw Gu Minghe trimming Pei Huaixue’s fingernails with an expression bordering on insane obsession.
Zhong Manzhu: …It’s over. My son couldn’t handle the shock of Xiaoxue’s death and has completely lost his mind.
For days, the Gu family servants had been whispering that the Second Young Master had gone mad. He stayed by the Second Young Madam’s corpse all day, refusing to leave, forbidding anyone from approaching, and preventing them from cremating or burying Pei Huaixue.
Even Old Master Gu and others who came to persuade him found their efforts futile.
Zhong Manzhu sighed.
She walked forward, her eyes filled with sorrow, and said, “Minghe, Xiaoxue is gone. Let him rest in peace. If Xiaoxue knew you were guarding his body like this, he would be unhappy in the afterlife.”
Gu Minghe slowly and methodically finished trimming the last nail, then used the clipper to smooth and round the edges, never lifting his eyes.
“Xiaoxue isn’t dead. He will wake up in a few days.”
Hearing his stubborn reply, Zhong Manzhu nearly choked on her breath: “Gu Minghe, have you truly gone mad? Why are you still unwilling to believe that Xiaoxue is dead? How long do you plan to deceive yourself?”
“Mom, please go back.” Gu Minghe knew no one would believe what he said, so he chose not to explain further.
Zhong Manzhu angrily said, “I can’t be bothered with you anymore!”
…
Online, rumors about Pei Huaixue’s death were also causing a huge stir.
The Weibo Trending Search would alternate between “Pei Huaixue has passed away” and “Rumor debunked.” Whenever news of his death appeared, Gu Minghe’s studio would immediately step in to refute it.
Netizens were confused, unsure whether Pei Huaixue was actually alive or not.
“Can someone please give us a definitive answer? What exactly happened to Pei Huaixue?”
In Pei Huaixue’s personal super topic and the Shippers’ super topic, people cried daily, hoping Pei Huaixue would personally come out to dispel the rumors.
“The news is absolutely reliable. My relative is one of the doctors involved in Pei Huaixue’s rescue. I can confirm that Pei Huaixue has passed away, but Gu Minghe cannot accept the fact and is keeping Pei Huaixue’s body at home, refusing to bury him. The denial from Gu Minghe’s studio is also instructed by Gu Minghe.”
At this point, someone came forward with a detailed, plausible exposé.
Evidently, this revelation was highly credible, and after reading it, everyone cried even harder.
A wave of sadness spread through the super topics.
The seventh day arrived.
029 logged on right on time.
Pei Huaixue had been waiting eagerly. His eyes sparkling, he asked 029: “System, System, can I be resurrected today?”
Beep beep beep—
The resurrection procedure has been initiated.
Host Pei Huaixue’s Vicious Cannon Fodder Rescue Plan is restarting.
Ten, nine, eight, seven…
Amidst the countdown, Pei Huaixue finally welcomed his revival.
Having died once, he finally ushered in a new life.
Congratulations, Host. You have successfully deceived the World Consciousness, avoided punishment, and will no longer be erased by the World Consciousness.
029’s cold voice contained a rare hint of joy.
The next second, Pei Huaixue opened his eyes.
His consciousness returned to his body, and the light, airy feeling was gone.
The first thing he saw upon opening his eyes was his Husband, Gu Minghe.
Since knowing his wife would wake up, Gu Minghe had shed his previous颓废 appearance and started meticulously grooming himself every day, afraid his wife would find him sloppy and dislike him when he woke up.
Pei Huaixue blinked and softly called out, “Husband.”
Intense emotion surged in Gu Minghe’s usually calm eyes, and his eye sockets subtly reddened. Gu Minghe held Pei Huaixue tightly, like holding a rare treasure that had been lost and found again, terrified of losing Pei Huaixue once more.
Pei Huaixue knew he must have terrified Gu Minghe these past few days. He quickly reached out and gently patted his husband’s back, comforting him: “I’m back. I won’t leave you again.”
“Mhm.” Gu Minghe’s voice was hoarse: “Don’t ever leave again.”
Pei Huaixue gave a sweet smile. Although his body was still a bit weak, his spirit was better than ever. A huge mountain that had been weighing on him had completely vanished, and he felt as if he had been reborn.
Except…
Pei Huaixue said with concern, “Husband, why are you so thin? Didn’t you eat properly?”
Gu Minghe cupped his face and kissed him: “You were unconscious. I couldn’t eat alone.”
“Poor Husband. Then why don’t you eat me first to fill your stomach?” Pei Huaixue’s hand moved to Gu Minghe’s eight-pack abs, and he couldn’t help but rub against him.
Gu Minghe’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He desperately wanted to accept his wife’s invitation, but he glanced at the mourning hall behind him, and the black-and-white portrait of Pei Huaixue hanging above. He paused for a moment.
“Let’s do it somewhere else.”
With that, he moved to carry Pei Huaixue away.
Pei Huaixue, however, wore a mischievous smile: “Is the person in the portrait your wife? He’s really beautiful. Are you afraid of being seen by your dead wife if you do it with me here?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Huaixue felt Gu Minghe’s breathing grow heavier, and his buttocks were kneaded into various strange shapes.
Gu Minghe lowered his voice: “My wife is very jealous. If he saw me kissing you, he would be unhappy.”
“What’s there to be afraid of? He’s gone anyway,” Pei Huaixue kissed Gu Minghe’s throat. “I am your wife now…”
The next second, he was pressed down onto the lid of the crystal coffin, his hands clasped together, and his red lips were roughly kissed, letting out low whimpers.
…
After finishing their little game of transgression, Gu Minghe helped Pei Huaixue dress, picked up his dazed wife, and left the inauspicious place.
In the living room, everyone stared blankly at the resurrected Pei Huaixue. The air was utterly silent.
After a long time, Pei Jing finally snapped back to reality, “Xiaoxue, you’re alive?”
“Yes, Mom, I’m alive. I didn’t die.”
“Then why did the hospital say you passed away…”
Pei Huaixue knew this was difficult to explain; anything he said would sound strange. He could only turn to 029 for help, asking if there was a good excuse to fool them.
Yes, I will activate the memory erasure procedure for the Host. In three minutes, they will forget that the Host ever died.
Hearing this, Pei Huaixue breathed a sigh of relief.
If it had this function, that was great.
Three minutes later, when everyone came back to their senses, their eyes no longer held shock when looking at Pei Huaixue; they looked at him as they usually did.
Under the System’s intervention, everyone had completely forgotten about Pei Huaixue’s death.
The memory automatically changed to Pei Huaixue having fainted during the variety show and then returning home to recuperate. Pei Jing rushed to fuss over Pei Huaixue, urging him to eat more and not try to lose weight like others.
Only Gu Minghe’s memory remained unaffected.
In this world, only Gu Minghe knew everything that had happened to Pei Huaixue.
He was the bug in this world, and the crucial existence that changed the trajectory of Pei Huaixue’s fate.
Host, with Gu Minghe here, your future will definitely be smooth sailing.
It is also time for me to officially say goodbye to you.
Mission complete. 029 is about to leave this world. Goodbye, Host.
