Chapter 484 - An unforgettable night

“Well, don’t be angry.” Mo Yichen said, and then he kissed Gu Yan on the cheek, and continued, “My queen, today you can set aside the cooking and I’ll do that to make it up to you. All right?”

Seeing this, Gu Yan was in a better mood. “Well, but I’ve done the preparation, so just let me cook it. It won’t take long. Go to do your business. I’ll call you when finished.” she said.

Despite Gu Yan’s words, Mo Yichen persisted in cooking himself. Scarcely had Gu Yan got up when Mo Yichen pushed her down, saying, “Just sit back and wait.” Then he undid her apron, put on and fastened it, and went into the kitchen.

Mo Yichen said it wouldn’t take long, but it seemed that he failed to do what he wished. An hour later, the loving dinner was finally finished.

“Finally! I’ve already had a doze.” Gu Yan teased. Half awake, she stretched and rubbed her eyes.

“Come here! Have a try.” Looking at Gu Yan with an expression of expectation, Mo Yichen was like a kid who had just finished his homework and yearned for praise.

Gu Yan watched his eyes and suddenly stretched out her hand to rub his hair. And she got close to him and pecked him on the cheek.

“Well, let me have a try.” Gu Yan looked at his shocked expression with a smile, and felt cheerful. She had a taste of the dish with chopsticks and found that it was unexpectedly good and, of course, she didn’t grudge him her praise.

“That’s quite delicious. Much better than before.” Gu Yan said, and then she looked at him softly.

“I know it. I’m sure that I’ll do it right!” Mo Yichen said with pride – a little child was certain to be happy as he got the praise.

Recently, Gu Yan had been busy with work, and Mo Yichen served as a stay-at-home boyfriend. He cooked for Gu Yan at home every day not just because Gu Yan was not accustomed to fast food, but he also felt it unhygienic. Though he was not good at cooking at the beginning, they didn’t need to worry about food safety.

However, after practicing for a relatively long time, Mo Yichen’s cooking skill got better and better.

“Well. Let’s have the meal. It’s getting cold.” Gu Yan pulled him to sit down. They enjoyed the loving dinner, laughing and talking till the end and took their minds off the worries.

In fact, both Mo Yichen and Gu Yan didn’t want to mention Jiang Jingcheng just because he had brought them an abyss of harm.

Nevertheless, Gu Yan was a softhearted woman. She believed that Jiang Jingcheng had his own miseries and would like to believe that he had no choice but to do those things. Therefore, she eventually forgave Jiang Jingcheng.

After dinner, they spent a little time watching TV. Shortly thereafter, Mo Yichen could hardly sit still and pretended that he was sleepy, trying to take Gu Yan to the bedroom. And Gu Yan certainly knew what he wanted to do.

“You can go yourself. It’s not time for sleep. If you’re tired, just go to sleep. I’ll go to bed later.” Gu Yan said deliberately.

But she was unable to get free from him, so she was finally taken to the bedroom.

While laughing, they fell down on the bed and watched each other’s eyes. Then there was a moment of quietness. Suddenly, Mo Yichen got up and positioned himself on Gu Yan’s body, showing a posture for kissing. Out of shyness, Gu Yan turned her head and noticed the scald on Mo Yichen’s hand.

“What’s wrong with your hand?” Gu Yan asked and sat up.

And Mo Yichen subconsciously threw his hand behind his back.

“Well…It’s nothing.”

Gu Yan pulled his hand towards her, only to find there were several blisters on the back of it.

“I was just careless while cooking. It’ll be all right soon.” Mo Yichen replied.

“Why didn’t you tell me? The scald should be treated soon, or it’ll hurt!” Anxious, Gu Yan rushed to the living room to get the medicine box and dressed the scald for Mo Yichen carefully.

“You are too careless! Why don’t you give your hand a rinse? If I didn’t notice that, I assume you will not care about it, right? Isn’t that hurt?” Gu Yan pretended to be sullen and scolded him. At the same time, she began to make a self-accusation inwardly. She felt distressed when she thought that Mo Yichen was so thoughtful but she still quarreled with him for some trivial matters. However, she was still complaining that Mo Yichen concealed his scald from her.

Looking at Gu Yan who behaved like a kitten, Mo Yichen smiled happily. He waited patiently for Gu Yan to finish the treatment and put the medicine box back to its original place. And then he pushed her down on the bed again.

“Be careful. I just applied the ointment. There’s no rush. Take your time!” Gu Yan said and blushed with embarrassment, shunning eye contact with him.

“Take my time? I’m afraid that I can’t.” Mo Yichen said. And then he reached out his hands softly and continued.

The next morning, as the sun rose from below the horizon and lighted up the whole sky, Mo Yichen awoke.

He looked at Gu Yan in his arms whose face still showed the pink flush. Gu Yan sniffled her nose like a kitten and curled up further in Mo Yichen’s arms. It seemed that she could only find the sense of safety in his arms.

Mo Yichen watched Gu Yan quietly and kissed her on the cheek at times, which, for him, was the happiest thing in the world. And he decided not to quarrel with her anymore because he trusted her. Lost in thought, he was totally oblivious of the “kitten” looking at him with eyes wide open.

“What are you thinking?” Gu Yan asked. Her liquid eyes were full of questions.

“Nothing. Did you feel happy last night?” Mo Yichen asked her with smile while squeezing her nose.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yan hid herself in the quilt. “Yes…” She answered in a strange tone after a short period of hesitation.

Her shyness was provocative, which prompted Mo Yichen to lift the quilt and begin to remove her nightdress.

“What are you doing!” Gu Yan immediately grabbed her pajamas and looked at Mo Yichen in pretended anger.

“Ha-ha-ha!” Mo Yichen laughed mischievously, falling down on the bed. “Well, I’m just teasing. Get up and wash yourself up and then have the breakfast.” After saying, he gave a kiss on Gu Yan’s lips and went to the bathroom to wash up. And Gu Yan stayed on the bed alone.

“What a boring guy!” Gu Yan shot a quick glance at Mo Yichen’s back. She dragged herself from the bed and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

At the very moment Mo Yichen finished washing, the breakfast was ready. “You can have it first. I’ll go wash up.” Gu Yan said. And after putting the warm milk on the table, she went to the bathroom.

When Gu Yan returned, she found that Mo Yichen hadn’t had the breakfast and asked him with doubt, “Why don’t you have it?”

“I’m waiting for you to have it together.” Mo Yichen answered in a sort of little-girl tone.

“Why do you speak like that?” Gu Yan rebuked. But a feeling of sheer delight was beneath her outward indifference.

After finishing the breakfast, Gu Yan headed for the studio, while Mo Yichen stayed at home, waiting for Gu Yan to return home.
