<h4>Chapter 44: Remember to Take the Pill (2)</h4>


    Approximately ten minutester, the door to the bathroom opened, and the mist rushed out. Gu Yu emerged wearing a bathrobe, and he walked over to the bedside. He looked down at Xu Wei from his towering height.


    Xu Wei felt as if she had juste back from death’s door, and her whole body felt lifeless. Shey on the bed, numb and motionless. But, when he looked over, she gritted her teeth and summoned all her strength to pull the covers over herself. She wanted to hide her bruise-ridden body away from his sight and was unwilling to let him see how pathetic she looked at that moment.


    That small gesture was sufficient to produce a thinyer of perspiration on her back.


    Gu Yu observed her demeanor, and his lips twisted into an unkind smile. He stared at her for a good two seconds before taking a sudden step forward and bending over to get closer to her.


    His treatment of Xu Wei moments before had left her utterly traumatized. She shrank back subconsciously, but he reached out and caught her by her chin. His fingers tightened, forcing her to look up.


    The man’s handsome face was mere inches away from hers, but all Xu Wei felt was panic and fear.


    Gu Yu wasn’t surprised to see her acting this way. Then again, there wasn’t any other emotion in his eyes at all. However, when he opened his mouth to speak, his words were ruthlessly cruel and sharp. “Xu Wei, since you couldn’t bear your loneliness and were so eager for me toe back and f*ck you, I was naturally much obliged!”


    Everything that had happened tonight hade so suddenly that Xu Wei wondered if it was all a dream. When she heard Gu Yu’s words, she had no idea what he meant at all.


    What did he mean when he said that she couldn’t bear her loneliness and was so eager for him toe back to f*ck her?


    However, Xu Wei’s confused expression only served to fan the mes of fury burning within Gu Yu. Heughed sardonically, and mockeryced his tone when he said, “What now? Are you going to put on an act and pretend not to know anything? Xu Wei, wipe that disgusting expression off your face. You can throw all your tricks my way. I’ll dly respond anytime!”


    With that, he suddenly jerked his hand back as if her chin were something filthy. Xu Wei lost her bnce and fell back onto the bed.


    Gu Yu walked into the dressing room and changed into a fresh set of clothes. He came out, dressed to the nines, and, without sparing Xu Wei so much as a nce, headed straight to the door.


    He suddenly recalled something after a few steps and stopped in his tracks. He turned around and fixed his icy re on her.


    Without any attempt at tactfulness, he said bluntly, “Remember to take the pill. I don’t want another worthless rtion to arise between you and me!”


    With that statement, Gu Yu mmed the door shut and left.


    Xu Weiy on the bed in a daze. Gu Yu’s parting remark kept ying repeatedly in her ear. When he had forced himself on her, regardless of how painful it had been, she hadn’t allowed herself to shed a tear. However, that statement alone was sufficient to cause tears to pour out of her eyes uncontrobly.


    Another worthless rtion...


    She had married Gu Yu. But to him, she was nothing more than a worthless rtion.


    He no longer had her isted in his apartment,ing back once every three to five days. However, he never stayed the night. He merely repeated the actions of the first night—using her roughly before leaving without a backward nce.


    This didn’t seem like his home. It became more like a hotel. And Xu Wei... she was beginning to feel more like a whore than a wife.


    When she had first moved in, she had assumed that this was going to be the home she shared with Gu Yu. She now realized that it had been nothing more than a delusional dream.
