Gu Xuening sat back on a chair, holding a book and reading carefully.
The feet wrapped into big rice dumplings were gently placed on a stool.
"Doctor Gu, is your foot okay?"
As staff members came in and out, they couldn't help but come over and ask questions.
Whenever this happens, a look of helplessness will appear on her face, "I'm fine, it's just that the bag is a bit big."
"Your husband is so kind to you, so happy."
"How can you tell that we are happy?"
"The news has spread throughout our laboratory. You are really very happy. He came to visit you and found out that you injured your foot. He even took you to the hospital himself."
After the other party finished speaking, he covered his mouth and smiled softly.
There are doctors here in the laboratory. For them, a sprained foot can be easily treated.
But Li Yuanhao was so anxious that he took her directly to the hospital.
This matter spread in the laboratory, and everyone felt that the couple was extremely happy.
"Don't spread rumors about things that don't exist."
"Dr. Gu, we have all seen it, please don't keep a low profile."
Said Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.
Outside the door, someone called out, "Hello, Mr. Li."
Immediately afterwards, Li Yuanhao's figure strode in from outside.
The people around Gu Xuening consciously retreated, not intending to be light bulbs.
Li Yuanhao strode over, looked at her and asked, "Is your foot feeling better?"
Although the voice is still cold, you can hear the concern.
"Not bad." She answered simply and clearly, lowered her head and continued reading.
He squatted down slightly and reached out to touch her feet.
Gu Xuening moved away subconsciously and asked cautiously, "What are you going to do!"
"I'm just going to see if it's serious enough, don't move."
He pressed it gently with his big hand, and then examined it carefully.
Although she was looking at her feet, Gu Xuening was very embarrassed.
"Have you finished reading? Get up when you finish reading."
"Yeah." He stood up.
As the altitude suddenly increased, a sense of oppression hit us.
"I have been very obedient these past two days and have not moved around. I am recovering well."
Gu Xuening: "I am a doctor myself. Of course I know how to pay attention. You don't need to remind me."
"Yes, you are a doctor yourself, but you didn't take any treatment measures when you found out that your ankle was sprained."
"I know, I just want to wait until I'm done."
"When you finish your work, you won't even know it's the Year of the Monkey or the Horse. You're a busy person."
Gu Xuening stopped talking. She turned over a page and continued reading. She couldn't even remember where she saw it.
After a while, she raised her head and saw the man in front of her still standing here, looking like he didn't want to leave.
"Didn't you say you were going to return to the team? Why haven't you left yet?"
"Don't worry, I'll wait until your feet heal before I leave."
After Li Yuanhao finished speaking, he pulled out the chair next to him and sat down.
Gu Xuening looked at him meaningfully, with a puzzled look on her face.
"You don't want to leave after I have a child, do you?"
Li Yuanhao was picking up the water glass on the side to drink. When he heard this, he almost spit out a sip.
He raised his head and met her confused and disbelieving gaze.
"Gu Xuening, am I this kind of person in your eyes? I have to have children with you?"
"If you have a child with me, your family won't have to worry about how you are doing outside."
"Gu Xuening, what do you mean, how am I doing outside?" Li Yuanhao asked with a straight face, displeasure on his cold face.
"It doesn't mean anything, I just said it casually."
"I am a married person, and I have always kept my duties outside."
Gu Xuening shrugged and said nothing.
Li Yuanhao sat here for a while, and then he was called away by a phone call.
After he left, other people came over and said politely, "Dr. Gu, your husband is so kind to you. He even invited us to drink coffee."
After saying that, the man raised the coffee cup in his hand to signal.
"Coffee please?"
Gu Xuening frowned, wondering what the man wanted to do.
"Yes, here's your cup of brown sugar milk tea."
Gu Xuening pursed her lips slightly, turned around and continued reading.

In the evening, Shu Xiaoluo had dinner with Gu Xuening and Ji Xixi outside before going home.
"Little madam, have you had your meal?"
As soon as we entered the house, the housekeeper came over and asked kindly.
"I've eaten."
"That's good. Mr. Gu just finished eating and just went upstairs."
"Did he ask about me?" Shu Xiaoluo paused while putting down the bag.
"No."
Since the two quarreled today, they have never talked to each other again.
Even when she came back late tonight, he didn't ask anything about her, and he didn't even make a call.
All in the Cold War.
She went upstairs and when she was about to enter the room, she secretly paid attention outside.
Seeing that he was not inside, she opened the door and went in.
Quickly go to the cloakroom to get a set of clothes.
"Huh, ignore me and I won't ignore you either. Let's see who will ignore whom."
She took out her clothes and was about to go in to take a shower, when she happened to see him come in.
Gu Qingyue hadn't taken a shower yet, so he pulled his neat tie and looked up at her.
The two looked at each other for just a second, and then quickly looked away.
Shu Xiaoluo walked out the door with a calm face.
He walked inside.
The two of them passed each other, neither paying attention to the other.
"Peng—"
The door was closed, isolating the two of them.
Shu Xiaoluo snorted coldly, "Oh, who cares about sharing a room with you? I'll sleep in the guest room!"
When Gu Qingyue came out of the shower, he thought he would see the little girl lying on the bed by herself.
As a result, not a single person was seen.
"She's not going to come back to sleep?"
He dropped the towel he was using to wipe his hair, turned around and walked out.
The corridor was quiet, and at the end, the light in a guest room was still on.
He walked over and was about to take a look.
"Peng—" The door suddenly closed, cutting off the light.
Gu Qingyue stood at the door, feeling like he had been rejected.
He raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, but thought of something and pulled his hand back.
"Little girl, if you want to sleep here, sleep here."
In the room, Shu Xiaoluo was lying alone on the cold big bed.
No one has lived in this room for a long time, so it's a little cold.
She got into the quilt and wrapped herself tightly, took out her phone and watched videos for a while.
"Ding dong—"
News about Ji Xixi popped in.
"Luoluo, how are you and Mr. Gu? Have you reconciled?"
"No, no one cares about anyone."
"That's not possible. How about you go over and have a word with him? I don't think Mr. Gu is a stingy person."
"I don't. Why should I apologize first? He was obviously at fault first. He still misunderstood me and Yin Chuli today. Why should I bow my head first?"
"Oh, Mr. Gu is a man of few words, but deep down he definitely wants you to go over and pay attention to him."
Shu Xiaoluo sighed, "Xixi, please stop trying to persuade me. Anyway, I don't want to talk to him tonight."
"Okay, then I have a favor and I want to ask you to help me." Ji Xixi smiled and said sheepishly.
"What?"
"I will participate in a clothing exhibition tomorrow night. It is a work that I have carefully prepared for two years. Can you come and see it together? I am a little nervous."
