C2908 The Obvious Hongmen Feast
The next day before dawn, Huo Niannian woke up from a familiar pain in her lower abdomen.
Her waist and legs were sore and weak. The pain in her lower abdomen made her break out in cold sweat.
Huo Niannian helplessly curled up her body. After resting for a while, she got off the bed and went to the bathroom.
A few minutes later, she lifted the blanket and went to bed. Just as she laid down, Gu Tingshen's big hand wrapped around her waist.
"What's wrong?" Gu Tingshen had just woken up and his voice was a little hoarse.
Huo Niannian turned around and leaned against him face to face. The man's warm body temperature made her frown slightly relax. Huo Niannian said softly and weakly, "The menstruation period is up. My stomach hurts."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a large hand on her waist massaging her abdomen through her pajamas.
The discomfort lessened a little. Huo Niannian could not help but shrink into his embrace. Like a delicate kitten, she obediently and softly.
Gu Tingshen took some time to take a look at the time. It was 5: 14 PM and there was still a long time before dawn.
He had been massaging her to relieve the discomfort. After a long time, she heard her weak breathing in his arms.
Under the dim light of the bedside lamp, he saw Huo Niannian's slightly pale face and slightly furrowed brows. She curled up her body in discomfort. Even though she had fallen asleep, her eyelashes were still trembling uneasily.
Gu Tingshen's heart ached for her. After she fell asleep, he went downstairs to boil some red sugar and ginger water.
Around six o'clock, Gu Tingshen called Huo Niannian up. After feeding her the red sugar water, he continued to massage her.
In a daze, Huo Niannian felt that the discomfort in her body was gradually dissipating. When she woke up again, there was only a trace of soreness and weakness left in her waist and legs.
"Feeling better?"
Huo Niannian looked up and saw the red veins in Gu Tingshen's eyes and the green stubble on his chin. He looked decadent and handsome.
Thinking about how he had been massaging her, Huo Niannian felt as if a feather had fallen on her heart. It was itchy.
"Yes, I don't feel bad anymore." As she spoke, she lifted her finger and touched his chin. She gently touched his stubble.
Gu Tingshen saw that her face was no longer pale and she had regained her spirit, so he felt relieved.
"En, lie down for a while. I'll get Aunt Liu to prepare some food for you."
After saying that, Gu Tingshen got off the bed and tucked her under the blanket. He then planted a light kiss on her forehead.
After he left, Huo Niannian lay on the bed alone and looked at the ceiling. The corner of her mouth slightly raised.
She found that ever since Gu Tingshen was by her side, the period of pain that had tortured her for a long time was no longer that unbearable.
...
In the morning, the weather was very good. The sky was clear for ten thousand miles, and the snow on the ground slowly melted.
Huo Niannian was playing with the two children in the sun room when the maid took the living room phone and went upstairs.
There were very few people who knew about the phone number in the manor. It was very likely that it was from Old Mansion.
Huo Niannian had an idea in her heart and after hearing Du Ruoqing's voice, she did not feel surprised.
"Sister-in-law, Zifan, Eldest Uncle and Aunt are going to the manor to visit Grandpa tonight. I need to trouble you to prepare."
Huo Niannian slightly raised her eyes when she heard this. She got up and walked to the bedside.
Du Ruoqing and Gu Zifan were coming, and Gu Changqing and Yin Jie were also coming. It was obviously not a good thing.2
She lowered her eyes and looked at the half-melted snow in the courtyard. She asked lightly, "What time is it?"
"It's seven o'clock at night. Sister-in-law, we won't leave until we see each other."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Niannian thought for a while and then went to the study to find Gu Tingshen.
"It's seven o'clock tonight. Gu Zifan, Du Ruoqing, and... Father and Aunt are all coming to Old Mansion to visit Grandpa." Huo Niannian paused for a moment. She did not know how to call Gu Changqing and finally called him father.
She lifted her eyes and looked into Gu Tingshen's deep eyes, trying to see his emotions clearly.
However, Gu Tingshen's expression didn't change. Even after hearing Gu Changqing's name, he didn't change his expression at all.
Seeing this, Huo Niannian felt as if there was a huge stone stuck in her heart. It was heavy, making her feel so uncomfortable that she could not breathe.
Gu Tingshen's heart did not have any waves. To him, Gu Changqing was already an unimportant person.
After thinking for a while, he understood the purpose of these people coming over tonight. They were just trying to find trouble for them.
Gu Tingshen did not feel anything. He only said faintly, "En, let Aunt Liu prepare in advance."
