Chapter 337: Chapter 338: Why are you getting so close! Chapter 337: Chapter 338: Why are you getting so close! Having lain in bed all day, Gu Qiangwei’s lower abdominal pain had gradually eased and dissipated.

She lowered her gaze, her eyes falling on Qin Sijue’s finger, which was covered with a bandage.

Everything he did was beyond her expectations, making her originally heavy heart mix with a touch of emotion.

And he, without a word about it, just quietly waited for her to recover, all to avoid mentioning her wounds.

“Is there anywhere you’d like to go, or something you’d like to do?”

By the bed, Qin Sijue stared at her and suddenly asked.

Gu Qiangwei was momentarily stunned, her eyes meeting his.

“Why do you suddenly ask that?”

He raised his hand, his warm fingertips brushing a strand of hair from her cheek; his voice was low and magnetic, “If you want to go, I’ll take you.”

It was then Gu Qiangwei realized, he probably wanted to take her out for a change of scenery.

“I can do anything I want?”

“Mhm.” His eyes were filled with endless indulgence; whatever she wanted to do, he would definitely grant her that right.

She stared at him for a long time without speaking, and in the end, swallowed back the words she wanted to say.

“For now, I haven’t thought of anything.” She lowered her brows, her words belying her true feelings.

“Not even a place you’d like to visit?”

She shook her head, “No, my only hope is to be able to find my biological mother.”

So far, there had been no leads on Tang Xinruo’s case, and her previous act of faking her death had left him without any inclination to further investigate the matter.

And Gu Qiangwei was well aware that if a person was still in this world, it would be impossible not to find them; after all, that person was her mother. If she were still alive, why wouldn’t she come back for her?

When she was a child, her mother doted on her, treasuring her as her life itself. If she were still alive, how could she bear to abandon her?

Catching a glimpse of his deep-set face, Gu Qiangwei spoke again, “Actually, I also know that my mom might no longer be around. You don’t need to investigate that matter.”

She didn’t want him to waste any more manpower and resources on an investigation that was unlikely to yield any results.

Qin Sijue stared at her without responding.

“Hey! Qiangwei, feeling better?”

As their gazes locked, a hearty voice came from the doorway.

Both turned their eyes and saw Li Yuan walking in.

Worried about her health, Li Yuan had specifically come over.

Seeing him, Gu Qiangwei managed a slight tug at the corners of her lips, revealing a faint smile, “It’s alright.”

Li Yuan approached and, seeing her color had improved, felt quite relieved.

However, his approach made Qin Sijue unhappy as he furrowed his eyebrows and yanked him away from the bedside, “What are you doing getting so close!?”

Li Yuan staggered from the pull and then glared at him discontentedly, “Look, Young Master Sijue, I am a doctor, and Qiangwei is a patient. It’s perfectly natural for me to be close!”

“She’s just fine!”

“Are you sure?”

Qin Sijue glared at him, expressionless.

Realizing the inappropriateness of the words that had slipped out, Li Yuan quickly fell silent, his eyes glancing at Gu Qiangwei on the bed.

And Gu Qiangwei’s face was unmoved, her brows only slightly drooping.

“That… um…” Li Yuan shifted the topic awkwardly, “Have you had dinner yet? I haven’t eaten and I’m starving!”

Qin Sijue was silent, his clear, cold eyes filled with displeasure as he stared at him.

Gu Qiangwei on the bed was also looking down in silence.

Li Yuan felt another surge of awkwardness.

“Ah, when I passed by the living room just now, I smelled something really delicious. I’ll go ask Qin Bo if there’s anything to eat!”
