- Chapter 125 - You Have to Spend Money to Keep Your Wife Happy
Without the support of a comfortable environment, the relationship between Gu Hanchen’s father and Lin Shuangshuang quickly deteriorated. Neither of them was easy to deal with. From the first fight, they resorted to punching and kicking each other every day to vent their resentment. Their disputes echoed to other inmates in the prison, causing a lot of dissatisfaction. There were quite a few people targeting them. They faced bullying from those fierce prisoners. Gu Hanchen’s father became very depressed and finally accepted reality. Every second and minute spent in prison was torture for him.
The massive Gu Group also announced its bankruptcy. Gu Yuanfei’s assets were all used to pay off debts. Without the prestige of a CEO, Gu Yuanfei had to figure out ways to earn money all by himself. He planned for a comeback, but because he had the surname Gu, no one in the industry dared to trust him. Gu Yuanfei’s own life fell into a bad situation. He was exhausted every day and couldn’t focus on his father and the others.
…
For such a long time, Luo Ning had been living a repetitive life in the game. With Gu Hanchen accompanying him, he didn’t fear loneliness and had long considered the system a missing entity.
He even suspected the system might not return. One day, while eating potato chips, he heard a familiar voice. He rubbed his ears, his expression dazed, wondering if he was imagining things.
“Ning Ning, I’ve exhausted my mind and energy and finally finished my work. I’m so tired!”
“Baby, I miss you so much!”
Luo Ning dropped the potato chips from his hands and sat up straight. “Why were you gone for so long? I thought you got sucked into a black hole. Did you finally buy a body?”
The system spun around happily. “I promise you’ll be satisfied!”
It had put in a lot of effort to make the purchase, using holographic technology from interstellar space to build it. As long as Luo Ning’s consciousness was projected into it, he could move freely.
Luo Ning’s eyes lit up. “Then let me out quickly! I feel like I’m about to grow mold here. I want to see what your high-end technology looks like.”
“Okay, just a moment.”
Luo Ning felt a wave of fatigue wash over him shortly thereafter. His head felt dizzy, as if he were walking on clouds. The warm and beautiful decorations around him grew dim as the faint glow faded, everything becoming unreal and gradually blurring. After the scattered light spots, the game world began to collapse.
It turned quiet around him. After a feeling of weightlessness, Luo Ning found himself in a dimly lit room.
There was suddenly a feeling of new weight on the soft blanket beneath him.
Gu Hanchen opened his eyes abruptly. He rolled over sharply, his large hand tightly clutching Luo Ning’s neck, while his other hand swiftly restrained him, his movements brutal. His arm arched rigidly. His eyes were dark and sharp as he stared at Luo Ning, like ice shards piercing through.
Gu Hanchen didn’t know who this person was or how he had entered. The silent intrusion into his home filled him with a sense of threat.
Luo Ning had no time to react before he was firmly restrained. With his vision blurring, he saw a pale, thin face with distinct features and dark, cold, gloomy eyes.
Luo Ning struggled desperately. His neck and arms hurt painfully. He gasped for breath, tears brimming in his eyes. He found it hard to speak, never expecting to be nearly strangled to death right after he came out.
“Let… Let go.”
He cried, his face was turning red from the difficulty in breathing, feeling utterly painful.
Once Gu Hanchen clearly saw that face, his pupils constricted, his fierce expression freezing. Disbelief flashed across his expression. How could it be?
Besides being a bit more refined and handsome, this face was identical to the one in the game. He had seen the little figure every day. That face was engraved clearly in his mind. Even the mole under the eyes matched his memories.
Gu Hanchen’s fingers trembled, then as if waking from a dream, he hurriedly released Luo Ning. His stubborn and frantic eyes were still fixed on Luo Ning’s face, examining him closely.
Gu Hanchen could hardly believe that the little figure was truly standing in front of him. He knew the game was unusual, but deep down he understood that his hopes were perhaps just fantasies. Even if he had to play the game for his entire life, it was acceptable as long as the little figure was by his side.
Gu Hanchen carefully cradled that small flame, treating it as his everything. Now that he truly saw Luo Ning, he felt anxious and uneasy.
Luo Ning coughed dryly, his throat sore, his eyes red as tears fell. He said hoarsely, “You almost strangled me to death.”
Luo Ning hadn’t expected to end up in someone else’s bed. If it were him, he would be scared too. The initial joy had faded. He felt like he might suffer trauma instead.
He tentatively called out in a soft voice, “Brother Gu?”
Gu Hanchen didn’t reply. As if verifying something, he took out his phone and hastily opened the game. The pink glow dimmed, and the obediently smiling little figure vanished.
So the little figure really came out?
Gu Hanchen no longer cared about his shattered beliefs. He quickly pinched Luo Ning’s face. It felt soft.
His tense nerves finally relaxed, and there was even a hint of confusion on his stern face. “Baby?”
“Mm.” Luo Ning turned his head to look at him.
The last trace of doubt faded from Gu Hanchen, and after the shock came a wave of joy. But before he could smile, his expression changed immediately upon noticing the red marks on Luo Ning’s neck. He quickly bent closer. “Baby, does it hurt a lot?”
Luo Ning’s skin was already fair, and the marks stood out prominently on his jade-like neck, making Gu Hanchen’s heart tighten. Regret and annoyance filled him as he held Luo Ning’s chin and inspected the wound.
Luo Ning clutched his shirt, his throat still somewhat uncomfortable. He said softly, “It hurts a lot. I almost cried just now.”
“But it doesn’t hurt now. I’m fine, so you don’t have to worry.”
Gu Hanchen pressed his lips together and went to fetch some anti-swelling and bruising medicine. As he was just calming down, he was suddenly struck by the dazzling sight of the delicate and snow-white skin. Unlike the round and chubby character he had seen before, Luo Ning was now slender, with a slim waist and long legs, radiating the unique handsome youthfulness that easily captured all his attention.
Luo Ning clutched the blanket, his face flushed and a bit embarrassed. He had no clothes on. At this moment, he was completely exposed. He felt awkward and shy. He curled up in the blanket, clearly avoiding Gu Hanchen’s gaze. He said in a low voice, “Brother Gu, I’m a little cold.”
This scene created a strong visual impact for Gu Hanchen. The person he loved was wrapped in a blanket, looking at him dependently, and his almond-shaped eyes seemed to glisten with tears. His fair face had a faint rosy hue, resembling beautiful flower petals gently blooming.
Gu Hanchen’s throat moved slightly, and his eyes darkened. He didn’t know what kind of feelings were stirring within him but instinctively felt his throat dry up.
Seeing Luo Ning curled up in the bed like a quail, Gu Hanchen rolled himself over in his wheelchair and pulled out a set of his own clothes. “You can wear mine first.”
Luo Ning’s ears turned red as he took the clothes. He didn’t understand why he felt so embarrassed. He thought his appearance would give Gu Hanchen a big surprise, but instead it had caused such a mess. It was completely different from what he had imagined. As Luo Ning muttered to himself, he realized something bothersome. After a moment of hesitation, he lowered his head and said quietly, “Brother Gu, I… I don’t have any underwear. Do you have new ones?”
Not wearing anything made him uncomfortable, but wearing Gu Hanchen’s seemed inappropriate.
It was just awkward to ask for Gu Hanchen’s underwear right after meeting. How could he not feel embarrassed when asking for such intimate clothing?
Gu Hanchen was also stunned for a moment. He opened his lower cabinet and found that there were still some left. He didn’t know why, but his face felt a bit warm. He grabbed a pair without thinking and handed them to Luo Ning. Seeing Luo Ning’s flushed face, he hurriedly left the room.
He rolled his wheelchair to find the first aid kit, then thought about going to the bathroom. In front of the bathroom mirror, Gu Hanchen assessed his current appearance.
He usually didn’t care about his looks, and with his indifferent attitude, he hadn’t been eating properly for a long time. Now he was extremely thin, just skin and bones, his complexion abnormal. His hair had grown long enough to cover his eyebrows, and the black clothes hung loosely on him, making him look lifeless and completely out of touch with the image he should have.
Gu Hanchen’s expression darkened as he felt how terrible he looked now. Luo Ning had been looking forward to seeing him. Now, he must be disappointed.
Gu Hanchen couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious. He rubbed his pale face and pushed the overly long hair back to reveal his deep, bright eyes. He felt slightly better.
He sat in the bathroom for a while, feeling somewhat disheartened. Estimating that it was about time, he slowly made his way back to the bedroom. Trying to act calm, he appeared even more serious due to his nervousness.
Luo Ning had already put on the clothes. They were too big on him. Even though Gu Hanchen was thin, he was still taller. Luo Ning tugged at the sleeves. The pants were two circles too big around his ankles. His hair was also messy, giving him a cute and comical appearance.
Curiously pinching his own face, he felt a smooth and soft sensation, just like a normal person. High technology was truly impressive.
As Luo Ning was marveling at this, Gu Hanchen came in. Seeing Gu Hanchen’s cold face didn’t scare him off. He knew that Gu Hanchen was actually a very gentle person.
With a sweet smile blooming on his face and eyes sparkling, he approached Gu Hanchen. He took the first aid kit from him and draped a blanket over his shoulders before sitting obediently at the edge of the bed, craning his neck.
“Brother Gu, did I scare you when I suddenly popped up?”
Normally, anyone would be stunned. After all, who would think a game character could truly exist?
Gu Hanchen gently placed a cold cloth on Luo Ning’s neck. As the ointment began to spread, he whispered, “No.”
It wasn’t shock but joy. Gu Hanchen felt as if he had never been this happy before. The treasure he had guarded so carefully was finally within his reach. This realization made his blood boil with excitement.
He was afraid that if he used too much strength, the person before him might shatter. When applying the medication, he was exceptionally patient and meticulous.
Not caring how Luo Ning had come out, Gu Hanchen pointed worriedly at the game. “Do you need to go back?”
Luo Ning shook his head. “It’s just a pity that you bought me so many things, and now they’re all gone.”
Gu Hanchen patted his hair. “Those don’t matter, I’ll buy you more in the future.”
Since he had come out, he wouldn’t let him go back.
Luo Ning looked at Gu Hanchen gratefully. He knew Gu Hanchen treated him the best.
But he also had to bother Gu Hanchen further. He wanted to take care of Gu Hanchen, and besides, he didn’t even have a household registration, so he couldn’t go anywhere.
No matter how he considered it, Luo Ning had made up his mind to stick to Gu Hanchen.
