Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife-Chapter 959: Two Dumplings Crush the Little Fat Cat (5)

Now her stomach ached with hunger, and An Yiqing once again confronted the issue.

She used to eat very little, being a Martial Cultivator, as she could sustain herself for a whole day on one meal without feeling hungry. She had eaten just after 1 PM today, and given her body’s condition, she shouldn’t have been hungry.

She had planned to contemplate what could possibly be wrong with her body, but the delicious smell coming from the kitchen completely distracted her.

Since the An family had already gone to bed, Gu Yelin hadn’t cooked any stir-fries, just simply made two bowls of noodles.

But Chef Gu’s culinary skills were so exceptional that even a bowl of plain porridge could be incredibly delicious, let alone these noodles, which he turned into a taste of a feast. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

"Eat up, be careful; it’s hot."

Taking the chopsticks handed over by Gu Yelin, An Yiqing moved her delicate nose, couldn’t hold back her salivation any longer, and started to gobble the noodles from her big bowl.

Seeing her enjoying the food so much, Gu Yelin felt reassured, but a trace of concern crossed his eyes.

He always knew everything about An Yiqing’s daily routine. How could he not notice such a drastic increase in her appetite?

"Mmm, I’m full, that was delicious!"

An Yiqing put down the large bowl, belched, lazily rubbed her bulging stomach, and spoke contentedly.

Gu Yelin stopped pondering, finished the noodles in his bowl in a few bites, quickly cleaned up, and accompanied An Yiqing back to the bedroom.

In the bedroom, the warm yellow desk lamp had been dimmed to its faintest light, adding an extra layer of security to the room.

Xiao Hei and Old Jin, both silly pets, had been scared earlier and were already sprawled paws-up asleep in their nests.

The bifold windows on the terrace were opened a crack, letting in the cool breeze of the early summer night, making it even more peaceful and comfortable.

In the large bed, An Yiqing and Gu Yelin leaned against the headboard, side by side, their hands interlocked tightly together.

"Ah Lin, I’ve worried you these past days," An Yiqing softly began.

She had heard from her family about everything that had happened these days; she knew she owed Gu Yelin a heartache.

He wrapped his arm around An Yiqing’s shoulders and kissed her forehead, "As long as you’re alive, I don’t mind how much I have to worry."

Yes, as long as his beloved still breathed, he would never give up.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and An Yiqing’s nose tingled. What had she done to deserve this man who loved her madly! She vividly remembered the lifelessness and indifference that had cloaked Gu Yelin when she had first opened her eyes. She had sworn to herself to take good care of her own well-being, and if she faced danger one day that she couldn’t avoid, she must hang on to that last breath to give him a chance at survival!

The two spoke lovingly to each other for a while, when suddenly, Gu Yelin’s phone began to vibrate.

"Haozi?" Eyebrows raised in surprise, An Yiqing glanced at the phone’s screen. Why was Xia Hao calling Ah Lin?

Taking the phone, An Yiqing pressed the answer button. Before she could speak, Xia Hao’s anxious voice came through the receiver.

"General Gu, I’m really sorry to bother you at this late hour. But I just couldn’t help it, how is Qingqing doing now? I saw the live broadcast of the conference today, she looked very unwell. How is her health now?"

Xia Hao was at a loss. Ever since An Yiqing had hastily left Qingning City, he’d been worried. He wanted to call her but was afraid of disturbing her work. So, he had restrained himself from calling until, a few days later, news broke out about a crisis at Xuanjin Pharmaceuticals, and rumors flew online about An Yiqing collapsing.
