Gu Yanxi leaves school early and goesto the hospital to see her father. Although her father has been sleeping peacefully, Gu Yanxi talks a lot. She talksabout her boarding, her roommates and the upcoming autumn show at school, and maybe she willserve as the leading actressfor the dance.

Gu Yanxi has accompanied her father all morning. It is the high time that Geng Chao has come to pay Gu Wenhai’s medical expense for nursing.

After seeing Geng Chao, Gu Yanxi starts to feel nervous, “Mister doesn’t come?”

Geng Chao shakes his head, “Madam, Mister is on a business trip.”

Hearingthis, Gu Yanxi blurts out , “And then Mister will not get back?”

Geng Chao has no idea about the appointment between Mister and Madam, and thinks that she feels disappointed because Mister cannot get back when she manages to get home for holiday. Geng Chao comforts her,“Madam, some urgent affairshappened, and Mister has to go and handle them. Don’t worry, he may get back tomorrow.”

Gu Yanxi remains calm, without any waves on her face, but she cannot help feelingexcited. “I am not worry.I’m not worry at all. Tomorrow is Sunday, and the grey Saturday will be over!”

Geng Chao drives Gu Yanxi back to Yulin villa.

Seeing Gu Yanxi is back, Cock Sister Zhang comes up at once, “Madam, you are back. It must be very hard to study at school, and you are tanned a lot.”

Gu Yanxi stretches out her hands and touches her face, “Not bad. It’s not hard to study at school.”

Cock Sister Zhang, so concernedas she is,asks, “Madam, is the food OKat school canteen? What do you want to eat for dinner today? I’ll make it for you.”

“The food is not bad, but not as good as what you makes. Sister Zhang, I want to eat braised fish, spare ribs, sauce trotters and beggar’s chicken for dinner!” Gu Yanxi is happy today, so she decides to have a big meal to reward herself.

Cock Sister Zhang, hearing the food that she ordered, knows that she didn’t eat well at school and is busy preparing for dinner.

At dinner, Gu Yanxi knows that Huo Yichen will not get back, so she asks Cock Sister Zhang to eat with her. Zhang is unwilling tosit and eat with her at first, which is against the rules of master and servant, but Gu Yanxi insists that Zhang eat with her, and she can only do as she is bidden.

“Sister Zhang, eat some fish. Don’t just eat vegetables.” Seeing that Cock Sister Zhang, quite reserved as she is, just eatsthe vegetables in front of her, Gu Yanxi gets a piece of fish to her. “Sister Zhang, I don’t have such rules. The Cock Aunt always atewith my families at Gu Family previously.Weareofthesamefamily.”

Cock Sister Zhang still feels uncomfortable, “Madam, there is difference between master and servants after all. It’s very kind of you that you don’t have so many rules, but not all rich men are like you.”

Gu Yanxi nods, “Well, I know. Mister is stiff, serious, lukewarm and disagreeable. I dare not eat with you when he is at home. But he is out today.”

Cock Sister Zhang drops her chopsticks to the ground suddenly.

Gu Yanxi refills her bowl with a piece of rib, and feels very funny, “Sister Zhang, I just say a few words about Mister. You are too scared.””

Cock Sister Zhang stands up, and falters “Madam, Mister…”

“Mister will not get back today. Geng Chao says that he is on a business trip. It’s true. He will be back tomorrow at the soonest.”Gu Yanxi takes the rib to eat while saying that. Having eaten half of the rib, Gu Yanxi, with her eyes wide open, sees the man who goes to the host chair. It’s Huo Yichen!

The half-eaten rib falls on the table, with a clatter. It was Geng Chao who said that Huo Yichen was on a business trip and wouldn’t get back tonight! And the man that sits on the chair is a ghost!

Seeing that Huo Yichen’s face darkens with anger, Cock Sister Zhang takes her bowl and chopsticks, and wipes the table where she sat again and again. Then, she delivers the bowl and chopsticks prepared for Huo Yichen cautiously.

Huo Yichen, squinting at Gu Yanxi, who are paralyzed, says in a chilly voice, “Don’t want me back?”

Gu yanxi swallows the meat in her mouth in haste, forgetting to chew, and she chokes.

“Hiccup…no, no, hiccup…”

Gu Yanxi covers her mouth with her hand, and holds back the hiccup wildly, suppressing herself so much. As a result, her face blushed.

Huo Yichen frowns and takes the chopsticks, “Dine!”

“Belch!”

Gu Yanxi fails to hold back the hiccup and makes a loud belch. She lowers her head hurriedly and takes the chopsticks to eat.

Hiccup…hiccup…

Cock Sister Zhang hands a bowl of soup over, “Madam, take some soup to push it down.”

Gu Yanxi takes the soup in haste and empties it at a breath.

Finally, Gu Yanxi fixes the hiccup.

Taking back his disgusted view, Huo Yichen takes a piece of meat to eat.

“Hiccup!”

Gu Yanxi covers her mouth with her hand again, and, looking at Huo Yichen’s sharp eyes, gets chilly on her head. As the saying goes, you cannot speak ill of somebody behind his back, and now her retribution comes so fast.

“Get yourself upstairs. You are too annoying.”Huo Yichen cannot stand it any more, slapping his chopsticks on the table.

Gu Yanxi, scared as she is, stands up, trots off to leave the dinning room and goes upstairs. She cannot stop the hiccup mainly due to Huo Yichen’s sudden appearance on the table, which scares her badly.

Having washed her face and brushed her teeth, Gu Yanxi lies on the bed to read. She still hiccups now and then. Suffering from the hiccup, she feels that her stomach is suffused with air.

After quite a while, Huo Yichen gets upstairs. Gu Yanxi, who is reading carefully while lying on her side, doesn’t find that Huo Yichen has entered the room.

What she is reading is Echo’s novel – The Sahara, a book borrowed from her roommate – Song Jia. Seeing that Song Jia has finished reading it, Gu Yanxi thought that she would have nothing to do at weekend, so she borrowed it. Sheisabsorbedin the book after some reading.

“Hiccup…”

Gu Yanxi is hit while she cannot help hiccuping again. Her back is hit hard all of a sudden. She feels ache, but she is scared even more, dropping the book on the ground.

Gu Yanxi sits up suddenly, startled and stunned as she is, staring at Huo Yichen who is to be blamed. Huo Yichen rubs his hands, with his insidious eyes. Plainly, he is prepared to frighten her once again.

Gu Yanxi shrinks her back to protect herself by instinct. She just had a few hiccups, and this is not what she can control. Why did he hit her?!

Seeing that Gu Yanxi keeps on the alert, Huo Yichen doesn’t continue. He turns round and undresses himself while going to the bathroom.

Breathing easily secretly, Gu Yanxi picks up the book on the ground, and realizes that since when she doesn’t hiccup any more?

Huo Yichen goes out of the bathroom, with a loosen towel around his waist. The purpose that he gets back is quite clear on Saturday. Gu Yanxi also knows clearly what her obligation is on this day.

One week no see, Huo Yichen is impatient, with a little bit more fierce motions.

When Huo Yichen kisses Gu Yanxi rudely, she says in a low voice, “Be more gentle, please. Please don’t leave any traces.”

Huo Yichen pauses all of a sudden, looking down at his little wife who proposes her request. A gleam of anger flashes in his eyes.

Huo Yichen is reluctant to make public his marriage, but this gives this woman a chance to propose her request. Being single, it is true that he feels free, but it seems that she enjoys this sort of freedom even more.

Huo Yichen moves his waist suddenly. Seeing her painful looks, he sniffs with satisfaction, “Don’t worry. I didn’t forget.”

Huo Yichenmakes a decision secretly in his heart, “If you can remember me by the hurt, I will hurt you thoroughly, making you remember the feeling in a week.”

For Gu Yanxu, that night is long. While for Huo Yichen, it is quite short.

The dim moonlight forces its way through the shutters into the room, and then falls on the two persons sleeping on the bed. They breathe properly, sweet and peaceful.

When Gu Yanxi wakes up, her first response is to touch the place beside her.
