《Sweetness Drowning: Callous Boss and Awkward Wife》C51. Arrangement
Advertisement
When Yu Fei takes a bath,Gu Yi makes a large bowl of ginger soup for her for fear that she gets cold after her exposure to the rain.The ginger soup in the bowl is steaming. Gu Yi takes a look at the clock on the wall and finds that she has already been in the bathroom for nearly one hour. The hot water will turn cold for such a long time, but why doesn’t she get out? Does she...
A terrible thought flashes in Gu Yi’s mind. He immediately stands up and goes straight to the bathroom without care. Does she make away with herself? Standing at the bathroom door, he knocks at the door harder and harder. He shouts, “Fei? Yu Fei? Can you hear me? Say something!” But there is no sound inside.
A desperate terror falls on him. When he is about to press down the doorknob,the door is opened from inside. With his pajamas on, Yu Fei walks out with wet hair dripping, which forms small water circles beside her feet. Yu Fei’s complexion turns a little rosy after the long shower. Gu Yi looks at her carefully and doesn’t feel relaxed until he makes sure she is okay. He blames her, “Why don’t you speak? You’ve scared me!” Then he pats his chest to make a scared look. He does it in order to amuse Yu Fei. However, she doesn’t have any expression as if she didn’t hear his words.
Taking Yu Fei to the living room, Gu Yi puts the ginger soup in front of her, “take the warm soup. It'll ward off the cold of the rain.” Yu Fei stares at the soup, lost in her thoughts that Gu Yi has no way to know. Although Yu Fei is in front of him, he feels there is a huge mountain between them and he can’t overcome it no matter what he does because Yu Fei doesn’t even give him a chance.

Seeing she doesn’t take any action, Gu Yi spoons the soup, blowing to cool it, and he puts it to her mouth, saying, “Fei, take some soup.” However, the word “Fei” reminds her of that man. Her facial expression finally changes a little. She slowly opens her mouth and takes the spoon of the soup which warms her belly as well as her whole body. She looks up and delivers her first sentence tonight, “I take it myself”, which delights Gu Yi and he passes the spoon to her. His mind is slightly assured by her coloring face after she quietly eats all the soup bit by bit.
Then he puts the bowl in the kitchen. When he walks out, Yu Fei still sits on the sofa blankly like before. He sits beside her. Thinking twice, he decides to ask her, “Fei, will you tell me what happened?” Yu Fei keeps silent and doesn’t say anything. He doesn’t ask her any more when seeing her like this. So he accompanies her by quietly sitting beside her. Then, they just sit together without a word.
It’s getting late. Gu Yi asks her whether she wants to go to sleep, and now she finally has some reaction and nods. Gu Yi doesn’t leave her until he makes sure that she goes to bed. He walks out, closes the door and goes to the balcony. A cigarette is lit and produces smoke which blurs his face. Lights in the city fill his sight and his secretary’s words in the day appear in his mind again, “Boss Gu,several of our bids are blocked by someone, so the project may be...”
Although Gu Company is not the flagship of the industry, it ranks high after he has struggled for so many years. No company can do trick to Gu Company except Ko Company. He is clear that it is Ko Chen who deliberately puts obstacles and his motive must be Yu Fei. It is Ko Chen himself who pushes Yu Fei away again and again, but he doesn’t allow others to approach Yu Fei and now he even plays such tricks to warn him.

Gu Yi takes a puff, blows a cigarette ring and puts out the cigarette whose fire flashes and darkens immediately. “Ko Chen, come on, I really want to see who can laugh the last laugh.” He sneers. He immediately calls the planning department and orders them to re-plan all the programs to take back all the projects.
Ko Chen is dealing with files on the bed with glasses on in the Ko House. He doesn’t know what a decision Gu Yi has made and what a disaster Ko Company is going to face. When Duan Tsingfeng comes in, he sees Ko Chen dealing with his work again and sighs aloud deliberately, which disturbs Ko Chen who is on the bed. Ko Chen delivers a puzzled look at him, “Is there something wrong with the ears of such an International great doctor?”
He says it with a smile. Duan knows that Ko means that he sighed too loud so Duan doesn’t take it seriously. He walks straight to Ko Chen to take out files in his hands. “I’ve told you so many times that you need to rest to cure your disease. You can work in the company, but you’re not allowed to work at home.” He has stressed it so many times, but Ko Chen doesn’t take it at all. Ko Chen would have a rest when Yu Fei is with him before. But since Yu Fei is gone, he becomes a complete workaholic. He is dealing with files both at home and in the company now.
Ko Chen ignores him as usual, taking the files back, and he begins to check them, “Well, I won’t be cured anyway. It’s better to deal with my work, so one day if I...Fei and our child can still have a good life.”
Although he pauses for a moment, Duan knows what he means. Ko Chen becomes passive again, and Duan doesn’t know what to say, after all, it is Duan himself who brings both hope and despair. He really believed Ko could be saved when receiving his tutor’s email before. Unexpectedly, a few days ago he received another email which wrote that the experiment went wrong and there may be a delay in obtaining the result, and it was uncertain how long it would be delayed.
“Can’t you believe me? As long as I’m here, you’ll be cured.” Duan Tsingfeng tries to convince Ko Chen, but Ko just looks up at him calmly, “Tsingfeng, do you forget how my father died?”
What Ko says chokes Duan Tsingfeng who instantly loses his ability to talk.
Ko Chen’s father is Ko Hua, once the best actor with wonderful acting skills and a handsome appearance, dazzling the whole movie world and thousands of audiences. However, he died young due to the same disease. Ko Chen doesn’t believe his illness can be cured exactly for this reason. All he can do is try his best in the rest of his life to arrange Yu Fei’s future without him.
