“Gu Yu Cheng.”

“I’m here.” After a pause, he added, “What do you want to say?”

“I think you are not a domineering president at all,” Su Rui said grimly as she looked at Gu Yu Cheng.

Hearing Su Rui’s words, Gu Yu Cheng was suddenly a bit puzzled.

“Domineering president? What do you mean?”

“The literal meaning of it,” Su Rui said with a wink at Gu Yu Cheng.

If she remembered correctly, the characterization of “Gu Yu Cheng” in the novel was that of a cold, indifferent, high-minded and overbearing president who did everything without missing a beat.

Even during his second life with the female protagonist, he still maintained his cool and domineering demeanour.

While the person in front of her is…

After staying in the hospital with Su Rui for several days, Gu Yu Cheng didn’t even have the time to shave and had only changed into the clothes he brought over in advance.

Now the stubble on his chin had sprouted and his hair grew quite a bit.

Overall, he looked a bit unkempt.

Anyway, he didn’t match the “Gu Yu Cheng” in the novel at all.

Looking at Su Rui, Gu Yu Cheng also raised his eyebrows.

“Woman, you’ve successfully caught my attention.”

Gu Yu Cheng lowered his head slightly, held Su Rui’s chin in one hand and said slowly.

“Like that?”

After all, the term “domineering president” was so commonly used and some of the female employees in the company would also occasionally talk about it. Even if Gu Yu Cheng was busy with his work, he couldn’t have been ignorant to this extent.

“Pfft…” Su Rui successfully burst out laughing at Gu Yu Cheng’s sudden classic line of a domineering president.

“Gu Yu Cheng… You… Haha…”

“Don’t make me laugh. I can’t, you…”

“Is it like that?”

“Yes.”

“Say another line.”

“There’s five million in the card, take it and spend however you like?” Gu Yu Cheng said after much thought.

“En. That’s too little.”

“Then ten million?”

“Haha, this is barely enough.”

The words coming out of Gu Yu Cheng’s mouth were a little bit vulgar.

Gu Yu Cheng also smiled along with Su Rui. He bent down to slightly raise the backrest of the hospital bed for Su Rui and brought her into his arms.

“Are you happy?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.

He did not ask Su Rui why she suddenly thought of playing this game.

“Not bad,” Su Rui said loudly with a smile.

Lying in Gu Yu Cheng’s arms and smelling the familiar scent of the other person’s body, she suddenly felt very much at peace.

If this world was really a novel, then the plot had probably collapsed to the point where she didn’t even recognize her own mother now.

And this man, currently her husband, was also the father of her child.

Su Rui doesn’t feel indebted to anyone.

After all, anyone has the right to live their life well.

Moreover, perhaps because the difference between the novel and reality was so great, Su Rui had a hard time even bringing the novel’s plot into this current state.

In the original novel, even though the female protagonist was reborn in a new life, she returned to her country many years earlier in a glorious way, and eventually returned to the male protagonist without any issues.

But in the end, Bai Xin Yu and “Gu Yu Cheng” only live out their second life as they treated one another as an honoured guest.^[1]

The explanation in the novel is the main character has always been like that.

If that’s true, then how do you explain the guy in front of her?

If Gu Yu Cheng is just like in the novel, how the male lead acted towards the female lead, and treated her (Su Rui) as an honoured guest, she would have to think about divorcing him.

“Yu Cheng.”

“Hm? Are you hungry? Drink the soup first?”

“Okay.” Su Rui nodded.

After receiving the soup fed by Gu Yu Cheng, Su Rui thought and asked, “When is Bai Xin Yu’s court date?”

Hearing Su Rui’s question, Gu Yu Cheng’s movements paused. “It’s temporarily scheduled for the 27th of next month.”

Su Rui said, “Can it be requested to be moved at a later date? I want to appear in court.”

Although he does not quite agree, Gu Yu Cheng still chose to respect Su Rui’s decision.

“Okay.” Gu Yu Cheng nodded and added, “If your physical condition allows it at that time.”

“Drink the soup first.”

“Mm, alright.” With her purpose achieved, Su Rui nodded towards Gu Yucheng with a smile on her face.

Originally, Su Rui did feel that there was no need to see Bai Xin Yu again, but it was at this time that she was made aware that the other person might be reborn.

Seeing that the other party didn’t think much of it, Su Rui just wanted to bring the matter to a close.

Now that the two of them already have a child together, what odd thoughts could Bai Xin Yu have?

Thinking of this, Su Rui’s gaze softly looked to the side at Little Gu (her son) in the pram.

Little Gu looked much prettier than when he was first born, not at all like the ugly “red-skinned monkey” in the delivery room.

Her and Gu Yucheng’s features could be seen in his eyebrows.

Originally, Little Gu was sleeping soundly, and occasionally his head would move slightly.

However, as she watched, Su Rui noticed that he seemed to have scrunched up his face.

“Yu Cheng, Yu Cheng.”

“What’s wrong?”

“Look at your son quickly, is he about to cry?”

Hearing Su Rui’s words, the gazes of the adults in the room also fell on the little baby’s body.

“The baby should be hungry.” The nanny, who was keeping watch by the side, skillfully looked at the baby and said with a smile, “Mummy can feed him some milk.”

“This first sip of breast milk is especially good.” The nanny didn’t forget to share her experience.

About this, Su Rui had looked it up on the internet and naturally also knew that breastfeeding would be better.

Thus, it had been agreed before that the child would drink milk formula afterwards, but they will still be breastfeeding until her confinement ends.

Seeing the hint of unnaturalness on Su Rui’s face, Gu Yucheng smiled and said, “Do you need me to step away for a moment?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, he was stopped by the nanny.

“What are you excusing yourself for? During this first sip of milk, you will still need to help on the side as the baby’s father.”
