Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart-Chapter 13 - 0: Talking about love in the corridor

Gu Tong walked down the corridor. She had been running around all day and was tired; she needed a good rest. She paused and stopped at the door of the officers' resting room. She remembered from her past life that this was Li Yan's temporary resting room...

"What are you looking at?"

A sudden voice came from behind, startling Gu Tong. She clutched her chest and exclaimed, "You scared me to death..."

Li Yan was carrying a green thermos bottle, frowned, and said, "If I were in the room, you'd have scared me to death too." Gu Tong pouted.

"Your news is really up to date. Gu Wangjue took pity on me, so he applied to the leader. I received the news in less than three minutes."

"This is the best resting room in the Royal Hospital. According to your status, you should be assigned here." Gu Tong explained, then changed the topic. "But that's not the point. I've been standing here for half the day. Aren't you going to invite me in to sit for a bit?"

Sharing a room with this woman?

Li Yan couldn't help but think of the scene on the staircase and instinctively wanted to refuse.

"Even though we're legally married, having a romantic conversation in the corridor doesn't look good, does it..." Is this a threat?

"Step aside!" Li Yan took out a brass key.

Gu Tong stepped aside, obediently cooperating.

The slightly yellowed walls were covered with posters on the glass. By the window sat a single bed; the sheets and bedding were all white. Although it was the best resting room in the Royal Hospital, it was still somewhat simple.

Li Yan walked to the table, poured a cup of hot water into a china mug, and said, "You can only stay a while. Tonight, some assistant class will come and sleep on the floor."

Gu Tong didn't respond. Instead, she rolled over on his single bed, messing up the sheets and bedding.

"What are you doing?" Li Yan's mouth twitched.

"Stretching." Gu Tong lay on her side, lazily letting her hand drape over her leg, looking rather provocative.

"..."

"This bed is big enough; two people can sleep on it without a problem."

"Don't just stretch on a man's bed..." Li Yan turned his head, his cheeks tinged with red.

"You're my man. There's no problem with me on your bed." Gu Tong yawned, looked at the night outside the window, and smiled, "Otherwise, why did you marry me back? To be an ornament?" Her joking words carried a bit of genuine feeling, also what Gu Tong wanted to ask.

Li Yan paused slightly; his dark eyes looked at Gu Tong, who only left him a side profile. But she seemed somewhat melancholic; was she unhappy?

Could it be because of the wedding return visit?

"I didn't know that getting married required a return visit. If there are any other customs in the future, let me know in advance."

"Wow, you actually know about the return visit. Impressive, my Earl!"

"..." He had never been married, so not knowing was quite normal...

"It's normal not to know if no one at home tells you." This sounded like understanding, but Gu Tong was actually blaming Aunt Li; such things were usually reminded by a mother.

However, Gu Tong didn't want to dwell on these issues. Thinking about depressing things every day would drive her mad. With that in mind, she patted the bed and said, "Why are you sitting so far away from me? I'm not going to eat you; come sit over here."

To be honest, Li Yan was really afraid she'd devour him. He moved a few steps and sat on the edge of the bed, occupying just a tiny spot.

Gu Tong couldn't take it anymore. She grabbed his arm and pulled, saying, "Come a little closer to me."

Li Yan remained still in his posture, and Gu Tong, with her strength, managed to pull herself up, assertively hugging Li Yan's arm.
