4682 Never Too Late to Love (89)

Gu Chengze took her in his arms and carried her into his bedroom.

All along, the two of them had kept separate bedrooms. He slept in his room while she slept in the other room. And all this while, she had never set foot in his room. This seemed to be the first time she entered his room.

In the huge room, there was a bed and a wardrobe. Beyond the French windows was the balcony overlooking the bustling Wanqian City.

The next second, she was thrown onto the bed by him. His bed was extremely soft. Her body bounced slightly, and then she felt his weight bore down on her.

Everything flowed according to instinct…

She felt as if her body was immersed in magma, so hot that it was scorching her.

After taking her once, he finally rested.

When she woke up again, it was already dawn. She did not sleep well. It was her first time and all she could feel was pain. Although he was very gentle, the pillow still ended up wet.

Oh no, she had to go to work tomorrow… Bai Sheng opened her eyes wearily. She did not have the energy to think about tomorrow.

…

In the morning, at ten o'clock, Bai Sheng's phone started ringing frantically.

Gu Chengze was the first to wake up. He turned off the ringtone and saw that the caller ID said "Team Leader." He thought it must be her team leader calling.

That's right, how could he have forgotten that she had to work today? Had he gone overboard yesterday? She was still nestled in his arms, sound asleep.

Gu Chengze picked up the phone. A woman's angry voice came from the other end.

"It's already ten o'clock. Bai Sheng, are you still planning to come to work?! Give me an explanation."

"I'm sorry, Bai Sheng is sick today and can't go to work. There's a reason for this and she didn't have the time to give notice. I'm very sorry."

On the other end, the woman was stunned for a moment. She asked in a daze, "You are…"

"I am Bai Sheng's husband."

"Oh, oh… is Bai Sheng sick?"

"Uh huh."

"Then why didn't she give advance notice?"

Gu Chengze could not help but laugh. "May I ask, who can predict oneself falling sick? She had wanted to go to work today, but I stopped her. She has a high fever, so she is not able to go."

"Oh… oh…"

"I wish to apply for leave on her behalf."

"How many days?"

"A week."

One week?! What sort of fever runs for a week?'

"If she applies for a week's leave, it won't be considered working full time. You can only take a day off at most. Moreover, if you can't get approval from the higher-ups, your salary will be deducted."

"Feel free to deduct it then. You can't force a sick person to go to work. Is your organization some sort of bloodsucker?"

With that, Gu Chengze hung up the phone without hesitation. Her phone displayed multiple alarms. The alarm had gone off, but neither of them woke up.

Gu Chengze placed the phone under his pillow. He put his arms around Bai Sheng and went back to sleep.

It was not until the afternoon that Bai Sheng woke up slowly. The moment she opened her eyes, she felt a searing pain in her inner thighs.

Although it did not feel like being crushed by a heavy truck like people say, it really did feel like she had been torn apart.

Even a slight movement caused her to feel as though her legs were plunged into cement. They felt sore and swollen.

Bai Sheng grimaced in pain. Suddenly, a thought struck her and she immediately fumbled for her phone under her pillow.

When she found her phone, she took a look and realized that the screen had turned black.

Dead battery?

Suspiciously, she hit the power button and her phone lit up. However, when it finally booted up, she felt sickened when she saw the time.

It was already one in the afternoon!!
