Chapter 82: Chapter 82 So That’s How It Is
“Oh… So that’s what it was…” Gu Zhihan felt embarrassed once again for his previous misunderstanding.
“What else did you think it was? Your own life?” His mother couldn’t help but roll her eyes on the other end of the phone, teasing him, “I really can’t tell that beneath that cold exterior, you actually love Mengmeng so much that you would even give your life for her.”
“No way, when Mengmeng wakes up, I must tell her this great news. She will be thrilled.”
Gu Zhihan ruthlessly hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Zhihan turned and walked directly to Mengmeng’s bedside.
At this moment, Mengmeng was lying in the bed, her little body trembling slightly, her face flushed red like a ripe apple.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Zhihan still… pursed his lips, walked over to the bed, and slipped under the icy cold covers.
Although Mengmeng was feverish, her internal temperature was high, but her surface felt cool, so even though she had been sleeping inside for so long, the bed was not warm.
“Husband, Mengmeng is cold…”
As he lay down, Mengmeng’s little head instinctively cuddled against his chest, as if to absorb more of his warmth.
“I am warm, and I will hold you tight.”
Gu Zhihan forced himself to speak in a calm voice.
But really when he held the little girl close, his heart began to beat violently in that moment!
It was the first time he had ever voluntarily held her to sleep since he was a child.
His heartbeat sounded like cars racing madly on the street.
She was so soft, so small, like a little kitten.
He had always found her annoying, demanding to be held while sleeping, and had never truly felt her presence, but now…
He suddenly wanted to marry her and make her his wife…
(Author: Hah, you big oaf!)
Though Gu Zhihan was a big oaf, he barely closed his eyes all night, holding her tightly, trying to use his body to warm her.
Only when he felt her temperature return to normal did he dare close his eyes to sleep for a while.
“Luo Mengmeng, I won’t let you be bullied for nothing…”
Before falling asleep, Gu Zhihan touched her little head and enunciated each word.
By tomorrow’s morning assembly at the latest, the school would deal with the girls who bullied Mengmeng in the bathroom yesterday.
Gu Zhihan was right; during the routine morning assembly, the principal, using a microphone, had those involved young girls called up to the stage.
This quick and transparent action was also thanks to Gu Zhihan, who had previously reported a potential child-abusing English Teacher to the media after the school tried to shield her.
The school feared that Gu Zhihan, discontent again, might turn to the media, which could cause another scandal, so they dared not delay addressing the issue.
“You girls, all come up here!”
The principal pointed at the girls already standing aside, growling.
