The CEO's Woman

Chapter 406 Guil

Chapter 406 Guil

Fu Jin woke up feeling light-headed. He closed his eyes as he tried to stop the buzzing in his head. He shook off the remnants of his nightmares before he opened his eyes.

The unfamiliar room immediately made him get alerted. He roamed his eyes around his surroundings, his brows furrowed, as he remembered what had happened before.

Then, he instantly jolted up.

’I must have fainted,’ he thought.

Jiang Yue!

"Hmmm..." Fu Jin immediately turned his head and frowned when he saw Jiang Yue lying next to him. Her face was bruised and she looked as if she was in pain.

Seeing how Jiang Yue furrowed her brows, instantly made Fu Jin stroke her cheeks. "Shhhh..." he consoled her.

"Jin!" Jiang Yue stood up panicked, her gaze still dizzy. She then blinked for a couple of time before staring blankly at Fu Jin.

"Hey, are you okay?" Fu Jin slowly touched Jiang Yue’s hand and pulled her back to the bed. Seeing her like this was making him realize how incompetent he was in protecting her.

"Hey..." Jiang Yue gently said before cuddling into his embrace. "We’re alive."

"We are... oh... easy" He flinched.

"Sorry." Jiang Yue said before lying back onto the king size bed next to Fu Jin. Seeing Jiang Yue lay next to him, instantly made Fu Jin smile as he did the same.

"Hello..." he said, his voice gentle just like his gaze.

"Hello, to you too." Jiang Yue turned her head towards him. "I’m sorry that this happened to you." She blurted out, she should have detected something about Gideon. How could she blindly fall into the Li Family’s trap like that?

"What are you talking about?" Fu Jin asked guilt was apparent in his eyes. He was the one who was not able to protect her, yet, she was the one apologizing. What was that situation? "I am the one who was incompetent. I should be the one apologizing. Not you."

"I’m sorry that you feel that way." Jiang Yue said, ignoring his previous words.

"Why are you here without even having the doctors check your wounds and bruises?" He asked while frowning.

"I’m fine."

"No, you are not..." Fu Jin’s words were interrupted by Jiang Yue’s hot lips. The kiss was not gentle, it was torrid with the promise of realness. It instantly reminded both of them that they had survived that they were still alive.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yue’s emotions were something that she couldn’t contain anymore. Tears started streaming down her cheeks. as they continued kissing each other. The thought of Fu Jin being killed, kept on running in her mind. Just the thought itself was enough to hurt her.

The kiss lasted for a couple of minutes before it stopped. Jiang Yue immediately wiped away her tears before she noticed that Fu Jin was doing the same. He stared at her and once again touched her cheeks. Last night the thought of dying after those twenty men attacked them crossed his mind not just once. It was something that he had already experienced once so logically, he should not fear it.

However, no matter how much he tried to lie to himself, he couldn’t. Death was something that he feared the most. He could not imagine seeing Jiang Yue being broken-hearted because of his death. It was just something that... he never wanted to do to her.

"I love you," he said, his black orbs staring straight into her gray ones.

"I love you more," she replied as a single tear fell from her eye. "I will not live without you." She declared. It was a promise. It was her promise to him. A promise that she would honor in this lifetime.

The duo ended up talking until Bei Ye entered the room with the doctors and some food for them.

"How is it?" Fu Jin asked the doctor who was cleaning Jiang Yue’s wounds on her shoulders. Those wounds were caused by Simon’s knife.

"These wounds are small, yet, there are a total of seven on her left arm and eleven on her right. I was surprised to know that she did not feel an intense pain last night because of them." The doctor said.

"Must be the adrenaline." Jiang Yue answered as she lowered her head, she could not withstand to look at Fu Jin’s dark face. It was a fact, the wounds that she sustained from Simon’s knife were not that painful to her. It must have been because her mind was elsewhere the whole night. Or she was just too tired.

Of course, at that point, Jiang Yue did not even think of the possibility that having high pain tolerance ran in her genes.

"Will it leave any scars?" Fu Jin asked.

"No. They are not deep. I will prescribe something that will make the bruises vanish in less than two months." The doctor said. "Here is the medicine to reduce the pain and for the bruises on your face. Please, call me if you feel any intense pain somewhere," he said before leaving.

Fu Jin’s face was unfathomable as he watched his wife. "What are your plans considering the Li Family?" He asked curiously.

"I am going to destroy them!" Jiang Yue answered without batting an eyelid.
