Chapter 385: Beat Huo Sicheng Up
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Qingcheng glared fiercely at Huo Sicheng.
He asked her what had happened.
She made no effort to hide her anger towards Huo Sicheng. Was that all he had to say with such a casual question?
Now, as she looked at his distinctively handsome face, she wanted to tear him apart with her bare hands!
Huo Sicheng could feel the rage emanating from Gu Qingcheng.
The gift box in her hand let him know she had seen Huo Xuan, but he couldn’t understand why seeing Huo Xuan would make her so furious.
He slowly sat up, trying to get out of bed while asking gently, “Qingcheng, what exactly happened?”
Gu Qingcheng clenched her back teeth, burning with fury at the sound of Huo Sicheng calling her name.
Qingcheng, Qingcheng, that’s all he ever called her.
Damn it, they had been married for so long, she called him husband, but he had never called her wife, only Qingcheng.
She knew Huo Sicheng was good to her, and she loved him deeply.
But she felt aggrieved. What she wanted was his fidelity, not his promiscuity!
She was furious!
The next moment, holding the gift box her son had given her, she put it on the cabinet by the door and stormed towards Huo Sicheng.
Huo Sicheng had stopped getting out of bed.
Because he saw Gu Qingcheng swinging her fist at him.
He could have dodged her, but he didn’t, knowing that if he did, she might fall.
Thus, Gu Qingcheng’s punch landed heavily on his abdomen.
Instantly, he felt an unbearable pain, as if all his internal organs were twisted together, even breathing became difficult.
Gu Qingcheng, without saying a word, kept swinging her fists at Huo Sicheng, only stopping when she was exhausted and her anger-clouded mind had calmed down.
Breathless with rage, she stared at Huo Sicheng and demanded, “Where is your phone?”
Huo Sicheng’s handsome face was pale, sweat rolled down his temple, his eyes filled with the endurance of pain.
His body ached from each merciless punch from Gu Qingcheng.
It seemed as if she wanted to beat him to death.
For a long time, Gu Qingcheng, who never tolerated anyone, hadn’t laid a hand on him.
Her actions tonight definitely meant something serious had happened.
With a suppressed groan of pain, he bore her fury, the physical pain nothing compared to his worry for her.
She was still taking medicine daily; he was worried about her health and didn’t want her to get too agitated, lest the poison spread further in her body.
He was still confused, not understanding why she would return so angry after meeting Huo Xuan.
But all his worries and confusion were suppressed under Gu Qingcheng’s interrogation.
“My phone…” His voice trembled slightly with restrained pain as he instinctively glanced at the bedside table, where his phone was not present.
He then looked at the wheelchair by the bed, but there was no phone there either. He checked his robe’s pockets, but it was not there.
Gu Qingcheng observed Huo Sicheng’s actions.
Compared to her earlier furious beating, her current expression was emotionless, cold as an ice sculpture.
Only she knew that with every punch she swung at Huo Sicheng, she hurt him as much as she hurt herself.
Pain.
She was in so much pain, the thought of Miss Li carrying Huo Sicheng’s child shattered her heart.
But this pain, when it reached its peak, became numbness. She numbly asked
Huo Sicheng, “Which room did you take a shower in?”
Huo Sicheng replied, “Turn left out of the door, the fifth room.”
“You wait here,” Gu Qingcheng turned to leave, her voice cold and warning, “Don’t move until I come back!”
She went to the room Huo Sicheng mentioned, opened the door, and was momentarily lost in thought at the sight of the vast, empty room with only a bed.
On their first night of marriage, she followed him to his bedroom, which was as empty as this one, not resembling a normal bedroom.
Now, the bedroom she shared with Huo Sicheng was warmly furnished and decorated by her.
But no matter how cozily she decorated their bedroom, it couldn’t offset the shock of Miss Li’s pregnancy tonight.
Her heart trembled, and her gaze locked on a phone on the bed.
This phone was a couple’s phone, just like the one she used, a testimony to their relationship.
Suddenly, as she reached for Huo Sicheng’s phone, the lily-of-the-valley bracelet on her wrist slid down, stinging her eyes.
A gift from Huo Sicheng.
She liked the gifts he gave her, but what she liked more was him calling her wife.
Her heart, thought to be numb from pain, started to hurt unbearably again.
In agony, she reached out with her other hand to remove the bracelet, but couldn’t.
Finally, she gave up on removing the bracelet and picked up Huo Sicheng’s phone.
Just as she picked up his phone, the screen showed not missed calls from Miss Li, but that the phone had automatically shut down.
No wonder Miss Li couldn’t reach Huo Sicheng and had to call the villa, asking the butler to find him.
Huo Sicheng’s phone was here; of course, Miss Li couldn’t contact him.
But it was because Huo Sicheng had left his phone here while showering that she had the chance to find out about Miss Li’s pregnancy. She stared at Huo Sicheng’s phone, wanting to smash it to pieces.
But she didn’t. Instead, she turned and returned to the bedroom.
Inside the bedroom, Huo Sicheng was in the same position as when she left.
She threw the phone beside Huo Sicheng.
Huo Sicheng, looking pale, picked up the phone, which obviously had no power and was off.
He had been thinking for a long time and still couldn’t understand what had happened.
Just a while ago, he and Gu Qingcheng were intimate, her shy demeanor in his arms. He couldn’t comprehend how she could change so drastically just by opening a door and coming back.
She was no longer shy but fierce.
Gu Oingcheng looked at Huo Sicheng. her eves falling on a long scar on his waist, and she lost herself in thought again.
When she had beaten Huo Sicheng earlier, his robe had accidentally been torn open, exposing half of his body and many scars.
These scars made it difficult for her to breathe, causing her immense distress.
Her mind flashed back to the day of the Taoha Cup accident, when he used his body to shield her from the glass that nearly pierced her head, saving her but earning himself a body full of scars.

Huo Sicheng followed Gu Qingcheng’s gaze and realized his robe had slipped off, seeing the concern in her eyes for him.
He didn’t want her to be sad or to remember the painful memories of the Taoha Cup incident. He quickly put on his robe, covering the scars on his body.
Gu Qingcheng, unable to see Huo Sicheng’s scars, snapped back to reality. She looked up to meet Huo Sicheng’s worried gaze.
She glanced at the phone in Huo Sicheng’s hand and then met his eyes with a cold gaze.
“Huo Sicheng….” she asked in a detached voice, “Do you still remember the contract we signed at the beginning?
