<h4>Chapter 257: Chapter 257 I Don’t Want to Spend a Day Apart from You</h4>
The sound of shattering ss startled the man. He quickly walked over and grabbed Ji Wei’s hand.
Seeing the red burn on the back of her hand, his expression turned grim. He firmly led her to the bathroom, directing the injured area under the gushing faucet.
The cool water alleviated much of the burning sensation on Ji Wei’s hand.
After rinsing for a long time, Gu Moqian still wasn’t reassured. He found the burn ointment in the medical box and applied it to her hand.
"Mo Qian, you don’t need to make such a fuss. It’s just a slight redness. It’ll fade gradually." With his shoulder still injured yet insisting on tending to her, Ji Wei instinctively tried to pull her hand back.
"Don’t move." Gu Moqian’s voice was low, his gaze locked firmly on the burned area of her hand.
Unable to resist him, in the end, she allowed the ointment to be applied.
The cooling minty sensation spreading across her hand instantly made her feel much better.
"How do you even manage to burn yourself while pouring a ss of water, huh?" Gu Moqian looked at her, both annoyed and amused.
"I... I was a bit distracted just now." Ji Wei’s face flushed as she exined.
Gu Moqian’s expression stiffened. "Was it because my mother showed up earlier and upset you?"
"No." Ji Wei shook her head and quickly came up with an excuse. "I was worried about your injury. Isn’t there a trip to Japan next week? If you’re hurt now, how about canceling the trip?"
Gu Moqian’s expression subtly shifted. He paused and stared at her silently for a moment before replying, "It’s fine. There’s still five days before the trip. By then, the wound should mostly heal."
His exnation was calm, betraying no trace of unusual emotions.
"But I’m still worried." Ji Wei’s clear and bright eyes reflected unmistakable concern.
Suddenly, she extended her hand, wrapping it around the uninjured side of his arm and resting her head against him. "Mo Qian, how about I go with you? I want to take care of you."
Gu Moqian’s dark eyes deepened, but his voice carried no discernible emotion: "I’ll be back in a few days. Be good and wait for me at home."
"I’m afraid I might miss you a lot." Ji Wei’s soft voice carried a tender vulnerability. She looked up at him, her gaze misted with a faint sheen of tears.
In truth, I’m afraid of you encountering danger.
"The inte is so advanced now. If you miss me, you can call or video chat with me anytime."
Ji Wei bit her lip in silence.
"Not good?" Gu Moqian nced down at her and softly asked.
"I don’t want to be apart from you even for a day." Ji Wei tried onest time to plead her case. "Can’t I really go with you?" Her expressive eyes seemed to speak, gazing at him imploringly.
Gu Moqian: "..."
He couldn’t handle her acting so adorably.
Pressing his thin lips together, after a while, he finally relented: "Alright, I’ll take you with me."
"Really?" Ji Wei was overjoyed. She hadn’t expected Gu Moqian to agree, despite preparing to wear him down with persistent persuasion!
Gu Moqian nodded. Seeing the excitement on her face, he felt both helpless and indulgent. He reached out and gently ruffled her silky hair.
"Mo Qian." Ji Wei suddenly quieted, raising her hands to cup his exquisitely handsome face. "I love you."
She spoke with heartfelt sincerity, then leaned in to kiss his lips of her own ord.
I love you.
These three words left Gu Moqian stunned, the emotions swirling within his heart indescribable.
He wanted to fulfill her every wish, yet at the same time, he didn’t want her to face any danger alongside him...
Ji Wei’s kissing skills had improved significantlypared to before. She confidently entangled her lips and tongue with his, sucking and lightly biting.
Especially when her gentle gasps of pleasure spilled out, Gu Moqian felt a surge of searing heat climbing within him, almost unable to resist the impulse to press her down onto the bed.
