He liked it!

As long as she was his wife, he liked everything about her.

Ji Pianran twisted off the bottle cap, standing opposite Gu Chen, bending over to carefully hand him the water.

Fearing that the water would spill, she held underneath the bottle with one hand.

But as a result, her body bent even lower.

Gu Chen lowered his head to drink the water.

However, in the next second, his eyes widened in shock.

Ji Pianran was wearing a white sweater today, but because it had been washed repeatedly over the years, the neckline had become somewhat loose. What was originally a medium collar had gradually stretched to a round neck.

Yet it didn’t look bad; in fact, it was still wearable, so Ji Pianran had not had the heart to throw it away and kept wearing it.

So, as she bent down like this, at such a low angle, that just…

Gu Chen’s throat tightened, and he unconsciously swallowed.

His Adam’s apple bobbed up and down.

He really didn’t mean to look!

He truly didn’t do it on purpose!

He swore!

But, well…

Why couldn’t he tear his eyes away?

It was as if they were glued in place.

Pian Ran was Sichuanese, naturally blessed with clear skin.

Fair, tender, and with a bouncy QQ texture.

The phrase “skin as white as cream” wasn’t an exaggeration at all when applied to her.

Right now, there were only two phrases in Gu Chen’s mind.

So white.

Both white and large.

They seemed soft too, as if they’d feel good to the touch.

After all, he was a young man full of vigor.

In front of the woman he liked, he had little resistance!

Ji Pianran was completely oblivious to Gu Chen’s gaze; she thought he was just staring blankly at the water.

She couldn’t help but ask with concern, “Why aren’t you drinking?”

She had been squatting like this to give him water, which was really uncomfortable—her legs were nearly numb.

Her voice was soft and gentle, but it abruptly pulled Gu Chen’s thoughts back to reality.

He blinked in a fluster, “Oh, oh.”

After speaking, he hastily shifted his gaze away and hurried to drink the water from the cup.

As the cool water rushed down his throat,

Gu Chen’s mind was still replaying that moment over and over.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became—he couldn’t help but feel his pulse race!

So beautiful!

Tsk!

Ji Pianran’s brows twitched.

Seeing Gu Chen’s flustered manner, she sensed something was off.

What was wrong with him?

Why did he seem to have a blush on his face?

Was he running a fever?

After a moment of suspicion, she instinctively lowered her head even further, looking toward where Gu Chen had just been gazing.

With one glance, Ji Pianran’s dark pupils dilated instantly!!!

Her temples began to throb violently!

Her face flushed red in an instant!

Even the veins on her neck started to show faintly.

This was a disaster—Gu Chen had seen her bosom so unabashedly!!!!!!

He had been staring, all this time, at her…

Heavens!

At this moment, she felt all the blood in her body rushing to her head.

Her mind was in a daze.

Ji Pianran swallowed, trying to calm herself down.

She tried to reassure herself.

We’re an old married couple, no need to panic, no need to panic.

But such comfort was useless.

Nobody knew better than her that they were anything but an old married couple.

Of course, Gu Chen was well aware of this fact as well.

So that brought her to the question, what should she do now?

Gu Chen was still drinking his water!

Should she get up, or should she not?

If she stood up, Gu Chen wouldn’t be able to drink the water anymore.

But if she didn’t get up, he would continue to see!!

She surely couldn’t just pretend nothing was happening and continue to feed him, could she?

After all, Ji Pianran was a woman.

And she was a woman who had never seriously been in love.

Although she had a child with Gu Chen.

But over those years, Gu Chen had barely paid any attention to her at all.

Moreover, he had gone to the city to work in less than two months.

Even when she was giving birth, he had only hurried back for a quick glance and then returned to the city after a couple of days.

Their relationship was entirely a one-sided love affair of Ji Pianran.

The more she tried to clear her mind, the more chaotic it became.

The more chaotic it became, the more she wanted to think clearly!

She became so frantic at the moment.

Of course, there was also a lot of nervousness and embarrassment,

In an instant, along with a loud buzz in her head, she completely lost her sense of direction.

This feeling was like the brain being deprived of oxygen.

Apart from the buzzing sound, she could feel nothing else.

Her mind was utterly blank.

Then, her throat started to tighten up in waves.

Thirsty, really so thirsty!

She needed to drink water!

She must drink water immediately.

Ji Pianran almost instinctively stood up, took the cup, and hurriedly drank two sips of water.

Only then did her muddled brain begin to clear a bit.

Gu Chen blinked.

To be honest.

Although he had just been drinking water.

But his brain and thoughts were completely occupied by the scene just now.

Seeing Ji Pianran suddenly taking the cup and gulping down the water voraciously.

Only then did he realize a problem.

Hadn’t he barely taken a few sips just now?

He swallowed, feeling like he needed to say something.

“Wife, I, I still want to look…”

As the word ‘look’ emerged abruptly from his throat.

The air seemed to freeze in an instant, and time stopped.

The atmosphere became extremely awkward.

Ji Pianran felt as if her heart was about to stop!

What was he saying???

He still wanted to look???

It would have been fine to just look, but why did he have to say it so brazenly right in front of her!

Did it mean she had to let him look?

In front of all these people in the hospital???

It was just too shameful!!!

Too! Shameful!

To be honest, Gu Chen really didn’t mean to.

What he wanted to say was that he still wanted to drink.

Drink water, that is!

Who knew why his mouth suddenly played a trick on him, turning ‘drink’ into ‘look’!

He was really helpless about this.

But after all, he had said it.

Pretending he hadn’t was impossible now.

He could only try to ease the awkwardness.

He cleared his throat, attempting to explain.

“Not look, it’s drink, the ‘drink’ for drinking water.”

The more he explained, the more ideas Ji Pianran had.

What not look, it’s drink water?

What does that mean?

Drinking water and looking are completely different concepts, aren’t they?

And why explain drinking water in such detail?

What exactly is he trying to do?

Is this some sort of hint?

Ji Pianran, although she had never had a complete romance, not even a relationship,

She was, after all, not a maiden anymore, and although she had been with someone just once, she did have that experience!

Moreover, she was a mother.

So naturally, she knew a little bit more about these matters than those naive girls.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Gu Chen was doing it on purpose!

He! Was! Making! A! Lewd! Joke!

No arguments accepted!

Seeing Ji Pianran’s face flush with shame, both angry and anxious.

Gu Chen sighed silently,

In his heart, he knew, she had misunderstood!
