One Child Two Treasures: The Billionaire Chief’s Good Wife Chapter 816

Gu Xingze stood in the rain with his back facing her .

Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ rushed into the rain and slowly walked up to him upon seeing his footsteps stopped . She attempted to pull his hand, but the moment her trembling fingers was about to touch his, his hand retracted, as if he had gotten electrocuted .

Her eyes exuded a hurt gaze .

“Brother…”

Her helpless yet weak cry hit the most tender part of his heart .

With a hoa.r.s.e voice, she asked, “Why are you always avoiding me? You clearly love me, too, so why are you always escaping? What exactly are you escaping from?”

He trembled for a bit, but very quickly, he constrained the roaring sea in his heart and feigned calmness .

“I'm not… escaping . ”

“You are! You clearly are!” she yelled in exasperation . “You're always avoiding me! Always!”

With that, she reached out to hook his hand .

He did not shun her touch this time .

Gazing at his back, she carefully asked, “Didn't we make a promise in the past that we'd be together for life – together forever? You promised me; have you forgotten this?”

Her lips constantly trembled as her broken yet pleading voice left their confines . “Brother, love me, alright?”

There was a pregnant silence .

Lin Fengtian immediately zoomed in on the image, giving Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ a close-up shot .

The fragility in her eyes was full of tension .

He applauded in his heart!

The dead silence continued for some more, and it seemed as if a century had pa.s.sed before Gu Xingze sighed . “How can I love you?”

He turned around, and the camera zoomed in on his face .

He frowned slightly . Hesitation and fragility were evident in his eyes .

Even her heart trembled upon seeing that gaze .

“Xiachun, what can I take to love you?”

This scene was finally done .

The director stood up and clapped thunderously .

Out of the role, Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+'s face revealed a smile of relief .

Gu Xingze, however, seemed to have gone too deep into his role; his face was despondent .

From her periphery, she saw his face, and her smile stiffened in place .

“Clear the set! Make preparations; we'll end here today!”

Almost at once, the actor turned around and headed to the building .

She stood rooted to the spot . Her a.s.sistant rushed over with the blanket, urging, “s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, quickly go take a bath!”

Coming back to herself, she nodded . “Alright . ”

“Do you need me to accompany you?”

“No, I'll go on my own . ”

“Alright! Remember to drink that ginger soup after you bathe!”

The production team had especially booked the entire floor of a hotel, which was beside a hospital, for the staff's use .

At this time, the sky had already darkened .

It was already 10 PM .

The front desk staff was feeling sleepy .

Clenching the room card in her hand, Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ carried the thermos flask and entered the hotel . However, by coincidence, she met Gu Xingze at the elevator entrance .

The startled her could not help feeling a little awkward .

In the rain scene earlier, she got fully drenched, whereas the man, who was holding an umbrella the entire time, only got drenched at some corners .

“Do remember to take a bath, too, or else you'll catch a cold . ”

“Mhm,” he blandly answered . His gaze, however, was at the elevator doors .

The floor of the elevator kept on jumping .

Ding dong!

A message alert sounded .

She took out her phone; it was a message from Youyou . [Dearest mommy, what time are you coming home tonight? (heart)(heart)]
