Wedding Night! A Regretful Marriage to Her Disabled Rival!

Chapter 171: Sleeping Together, Seducing His Soul

Huo Sicheng’s line of sight fell upon Gu Qingcheng, her face pale with worry.

The anxiety that flashed through her eyes unintentionally made him feel a deep tenderness.

His heart raced uncontrollably, feeling both worried and pained for Gu Qingcheng.

Even though he was in excruciating pain, with no appetite due to the severe discomfort in his body, he forced himself to eat the food she fed him, not wanting to worry her.

At close range, Gu Qingcheng noticed the hidden pain in Huo Sicheng’s eyes, which had flashed unintentionally. Besides her concern and worry, an endless anger welled up in her heart.

There was no way he would fall ill for no reason; something must have happened.

Huo Sicheng had a high tolerance for pain, and he had probably discovered his health issues long before but had endured them so that she wouldn’t find out.

After dinner, Gu Qingcheng fed Huo Sicheng his medicine.

“Be a good boy, go to sleep, and I won’t leave your side,” she whispered softly.

“Trust me, I won’t leave you.”

Huo Sicheng gazed tenderly at Gu Qingcheng, and after a moment, he asked in a hoarse voice, “Has something happened to you?”

“Me?” Gu Qingcheng was surprised. “I haven’t had any problems. Why do you ask?”

The corner of Huo Sicheng’s mouth twitched, and after a while, he softly said,

“You’ve suddenly been too kind to me.”

Gu Qingcheng was momentarily stunned, then looked at Huo Sicheng with helplessness. “You’re my husband; I should be good to you. Get used to it; I’ll be good to you from now on.”

After a pause, she sincerely said to him, “Honey, I’m sorry. I used to be stubborn and bossy, always arguing with you. Can you forgive me?”

“I’ve told you never to apologize to me,” Huo Sicheng held Gu Qingcheng’s hand gently. “It’s normal to have conflicts. I’ve said our personalities need time to adjust, and as we get along better, there will be fewer conflicts.”

“No, I won’t argue with you anymore,” Gu Qingcheng shook her head gently.

“It’s not about adjustment; it’s because I’m too easily provoked.”

“You only get provoked when you’re in front of me,” Huo Sicheng hinted at something. “That’s because, whether in the past or now, you haven’t learned how to accept me.”

Gu Qingcheng remained silent.

“We’ve only been married, just obtained a marriage certificate. We’re both individuals with independent thoughts. A piece of paper can’t instantly resolve the conflicts we’ve accumulated over the years,” Huo Sicheng explained.

“There’s no love at first sight; there’s only attraction based on appearances. No matter how close we were growing up, you never really looked at me seriously, and when you did, it was during our conflicts.”

“So, our feelings, our love, our marriage, all of it requires us to work through step by step, with conflicts and misunderstandings, to get to where we are today.”

Gu Qingcheng felt a pang in her heart, a lump forming her throat.

Huo Sicheng was right.

Between them, it wasn’t just a matter of getting married and resolving all their issues. Looking back, every time they had an argument and clashed, it had brought them closer.

What he said could not be more accurate. From the moment she had proposed to him, she had thought of herself as the hunter, capturing her prey. In reality, she was the prey, and Huo Sicheng was the hidden hunter, gradually drawing her into his carefully orchestrated love.

He had been plotting behind the scenes.

That explained why he never rushed to resolve their conflicts during arguments. He knew she couldn’t escape, and instead, her heart would draw closer to him, not farther away.

“In fact, the one who should apologize is me, not you,” Huo Sicheng said, watching Gu Qingcheng’s changing expression. “You caused a fuss, but the incident with Ji Sisi was my most regrettable decision. I shouldn’t have intentionally provoked you out of anger, making you want a divorce, especially when you had intended to be with me.”

“At that time, you believed I only married you for your abilities, or you wouldn’t have given me access to the resources and documents of Huo Group,” Gu Qingcheng gently continued Huo Sicheng’s words. “I didn’t know what you were up to back then; it took me a long time to realize you had misunderstood me.”

“Yes, I misunderstood you, but I can be sure that I never actually got involved with Ji Sisi,” Huo Sicheng admitted his mistake. “When you wanted to reconcile with me, if I hadn’t misunderstood you, we could have started a new life after our marriage, and there wouldn’t have been so many conflicts.”

He paused for a moment and then said, “Of course, I mentioned this after we had caused so many conflicts, and no matter how many times we argued, we’ve reached a point where we’ve adjusted to each other. We can now have peaceful meals, conversations, and sleep together.”

“That’s true,” Gu Qingcheng agreed. “From our initial arguments to reconciliation, it took a long time, but it has led to a positive development.”

“I want to thank you for giving me a chance,” Huo Sicheng hinted. “For giving me a chance to start over and make up for my mistakes, which nearly cost me losing you. ”

Gu Qingcheng recalled the moment when they signed the contract, feeling a bittersweetness in her heart.

“I also put all my effort into it, and it was almost like self-hypnosis to give you a chance,” she softly said to him. “I had a gamble in me, and I gave myself a

year to see how it goes.”

“I know, but do you know?” Huo Sicheng’s voice softened as he realized his mistake. He gently held Gu Qingcheng’s hand and continued, “Regardless of whether you had that gambling spirit or not, when you gave me a chance, it meant that you had me in your heart, and that’s enough for me.”

Gu Qingcheng’s eyes softened, and her heart warmed. “Okay, from now on, don’t be silent with me. I really like it when you talk to me more.”

“Okay,” Huo Sicheng replied and then whispered softly to Gu Qingcheng, “I don’t want to clip your wings or make you change for me. I want you, the real you, with your laughter and anger, just as you are.”

“I haven’t changed myself; I’ve always loved and liked being myself,” Gu Qingcheng replied while holding Huo Sicheng’s hand and caressing her cheek with his palm, just like a cat. “I’m good to you and gentle with you because you’re my husband. Huo Sicheng,you’re in my heart, whether in the past or now. You’ve always been there.”

In her previous life, she had him in her heart, even though she hated him, and it consumed her energy.

In this life, she had him in her heart. He had angered her, provoked her, and in the end, she loved him. It all revolved around the fact that she had Huo Sicheng in her heart.

Before she died, she met the right person at the right time, but she had missed it.

Now, she had met the right person at the right time, and she couldn’t afford to miss it again. That was why she had convinced herself to give him a chance.

The timing of their encounters was beyond words.

Fortunately, she had given him a chance; otherwise, they wouldn’t have reached this intimate moment.

Huo Sicheng looked at Gu Qingcheng tenderly, his eyes filled with affection.

“Sleep with me.”

“Okay.”

At the door, she calmly asked Chu Yu, “Chu Yu, what kind of poison did my husband get?”
