Chapter 1121 - Making It Hard for One to Refuse Her

Although Xiao Liuli was now injured and sick, it wasn’t right to be so indulgent toward the child! Auntie Li treated Yun Liuli like her own child, just as she did with Tuan Tuan. So, she was thinking… to find some time when Mr. Gu was free to have a talk with him. Or, she could bring it up with Lin Nuan and get her to have a good talk with Mr. Gu, telling him not to indulge the child so much. It’d be too late for regrets if she were to get myopia!
Since Yun Liuli knew that there was no baseline to Gu Qingcheng’s indulgence toward her, her mind was filled with ideas that night.

The weather was good today, and she could see the stars when she stood by the window.
Yun Liuli had made up her mind. Without any hesitation, she hugged her pillow and walked to Gu Qingcheng’s bedroom, knocking on the door.
Uncle Qingcheng, are you asleep?

Gu Qingcheng had just come out of the shower when he heard the young lady’s soft voice coming from the other side of the door. Without caring that his hair was still wet, he put on his home clothes and opened the door.
The young lady was wearing a pitiful expression as she hugged her pillow, looking at Gu Qingcheng with moistened eyes and saying,
Uncle Qingcheng… I miss my dad! I can’t sleep…

Gu Qingcheng’s throat felt as if something was stuck there as he looked at Yun Liuli. He was unable to lie to her and say that her dad would be back very soon.
The young lady was very docile and didn’t continue to chase for an answer. She just lowered her head and rubbed her tears onto the pillow, pretending as if nothing had happened as she asked,
Uncle Qingcheng… can I sleep with you tonight? I’ll be very well-behaved! I’ll just hold onto Uncle Qingcheng’s arm like I did last night!

The young lady made herself out to sound so pitiful, making it hard for one to refuse her.
However, at the thought of the dream he had, Gu Qingcheng’s hand that was holding onto the doorknob tightened its grip. Water dripped down from his ink-black hair, wetting his shoulders.


Liuli…
Gu Qingcheng’s throat rolled slightly, and the words of refusal were stuck in his throat, with him unable to voice them out.
Yun Liuli saw how Gu Qingcheng seemed like he wanted to reject her and lowered her head.
Uncle Qingcheng, I’m really scared to sleep by myself. Ever since I woke up after my accident, Uncle Qingcheng has been by my side all the while in the hospital. I won’t be able to sleep by myself in that unfamiliar room. I feel that there are monsters everywhere. Or, why doesn’t Uncle Qingcheng send me back to my home? If I’m back in my own home, I’ll be very familiar with it even if my dad isn’t around. Even if I feel lonely, I won’t be scared…


Why would there be monsters at home? You’re too cowardly!
When Gu Qingcheng was saying this, his tone was very gentle.

Uncle Qingcheng, have I given you trouble because I’m cowardly?
When Yun Liuli raised her head again, her eyes were filled with tears.
I definitely don’t want to bring trouble to Uncle Qingcheng! Then… then I’ll… I’ll stay alone by myself in the room and wait for daybreak! When the sun comes up, I won’t be scared!

Gu Qingcheng couldn’t help but want to smile.
Was Yun Liuli so good at talking when she was seven years old? She even mentioned alone by herself… making herself sound so pitiful!
The young lady’s ears couldn’t help but turn red when she saw Gu Qingcheng pursing his lips with a shadow of a smile. She hugged her pillow tightly and then turned to leave.
Gu Qingcheng opened his room door wider, letting out a sigh that was so soft that it almost couldn’t be heard.
Come in! You make yourself sound so pitiful…

Yun Liuli turned. Her eyes were still filled with tears, but she was smiling very beautifully. As if afraid Gu Qingcheng would go back on his words, she rapidly dashed into his room.
Uncle Qingcheng said this yourself. Don’t regret it!

The young lady climbed up onto the bed the moment she dashed in. She then put her pillow in place, flipped the blankets, and patted the spot next to her.
Uncle Qingcheng… quickly come and rest!


Gu Qingcheng closed the door, feeling both heartache and helplessness toward Yun Liuli. He had no idea what he should do with her!
However, it was like Fu Huai’an had said. In Gu Qingcheng’s heart… he was still feeling a little relaxed. Facing the
seven-year-old
Yun Liuli, he could dote on her and love her without any reservations. He wasn’t even afraid to let Yun Liuli see the honest gentleness in his eyes.
It was because a seven-year-old child wouldn’t detect his love for her as that of a man toward a woman. What he revealed… wouldn’t sink her entire life into a love that wouldn’t come to any fruition.

You sleep first… My hair hasn’t dried yet!
Gu Qingcheng headed toward the bathroom as he said this.
Yun Liuli looked at Gu Qingcheng’s back view without blinking her big eyes. It was only when she heard the
buzzing
sounds coming from the hairdryer that she laid down.
She clutched onto the blankets, wrapping herself tightly underneath. Tonight… she wanted to go one step further.
Gu Qingcheng had short hair, and it would dry very fast. Therefore, there wasn’t much time for Yun Liuli to hesitate.
Hearing the hairdryer stop, she sat up and started to unbutton her pajamas…
The morning Yun Liuli had come back from the hospital, Gu Qingcheng had already arranged for people to come to the Cloud Top Condominium to clean up the place. He had even gotten them to throw away all of Yun Liuli’s sexy pajamas, only leaving her with comfortable pajamas made from pure cotton and silk. All of them were proper styles, far from being sexy.
When Gu Qingcheng opened the bathroom door and came out, he saw that the young lady had taken off her pajamas and bra. The young lady’s beautiful and smooth skin, as well as her great figure, was so astonishing that Gu Qingcheng was unable to come back to his senses for quite a while.

When Yun Liuli turned and saw Gu Qingcheng coming out, she put on her pajamas and buttoned them up. Her glance landed on the bra that was on Gu Qingcheng’s pillow, and she said outright, not seeming embarrassed at all,
Auntie Li said that I have to wear this. She also said that… I have to take it off when I sleep at night. Otherwise, my chest will hurt!

A
seven-year-old
girl was innocent and free from tainted thoughts. However, things were different for Gu Qingcheng. He was an adult man!
Gu Qingcheng’s heartbeat palpitated very quickly, but he didn’t say anything. He was afraid that if he were to make a sound, he would divulge his emotions. He nodded and headed for the study desk.

Uncle Qingcheng, aren’t you going to sleep?
Yun Liuli looked at Gu Qingcheng’s panicking back view and asked with a clear and crisp voice.

You sleep first. I’ll go for a smoke on the balcony!
Gu Qingcheng took his cigarettes and lighter, then headed to the balcony.
Gu Qingcheng, who was wearing only his pajamas, felt a little more awake after the cooling night wind blew at him.
His brows furrowed tightly, and he shook out a cigarette from the pack, putting it to his lips. He pressed the lighter a few times but was unable to get the fire started. The flames in his heart grew increasingly large and felt increasingly scorching, so much so that Gu Qingcheng felt unsettled.
That night’s dream and the Yun Liuli he saw today…
Gu Qingcheng was afraid that if things continued on like this, he might really do something beastly to her.
Gu Qingcheng felt a little regretful now. He regretted agreeing to let Yun Liuli sleep in his room so easily.
The cigarette was still clamped by his lips, not lit up. Gu Qingcheng heard Yun Liuli calling for him…

Uncle Qingcheng!

Gu Qingcheng turned and saw Yun Liuli standing pitifully at the balcony door, her two hands fiddling.
Uncle Qingcheng, did I do something to make you unhappy? Why do you look so angry?
