Callous Boss and Awkward Wife
Chapter 50: Trauma

Proofread by Peter Gong

Yu Yu thinks Ko Chen's words are for Uncle Zhang. She takes it mistakenly that Ko Chen wants to keep doing the thing with her which was interrupted before. She gives a big smile immediately. Ko Chen doesn't even look at her. He closes his eyes and rubs his nose with a tired look.

Seeing this, Yu Yu snuggles up at once, raises her hand and tries to massage his nose. She won't waste such a good chance to flatter him.

Ko Chen thinks Yu Yu will be realistic and leave after hearing what he says. But soon he smells the fragrance from the woman which stimulates him and makes him open his eyes.

"What are you doing here!" Ko Chen asks coldly. He frowns and his eyes are very cold.

Seeing his cold eyes, Yu Yu feels the temperature around her goes down as well. It is bitterly cold.

She is puzzled about his changed altitude, but just for a second. She gives a smile immediately. With a smile, she tries to get close to him, but Ko Chen keeps her off.

With a disgusted look, Ko Chen pats his sleeves which were merely touched by Yu Yu before.

He is not in the mood of dealing with Yu Yu, and he gives no easy look to her. "Get out, you understand me?"

Yu Yu's smile stops on her face. She freezes where she is and finally figures out Ko Chen hates her very much. She takes a look at Uncle Zhang who is standing beside and then realizes that what Ko Chen meant is to let her get out. Her face burns because of shame and she leaves without looking back.

After Yu Yu leaves, Uncle Zhang supports Ko Chen to lie in his bed. Now Ko Chen's disease strikes him more and more often. He almost can't bear with it if Yu Yu didn't leave.

Ko Chen feels so familiar with the pain on his body. He shows no concern about it. All he cares about is Yu Fei.

"Did Fei hear what I said?" Although he knows it exactly, he still asks Uncle Zhang the question.

Uncle Zhang makes a sound. He hesitates to talk about it. At last, he closes his mouth and utters nothing.

In fact, Ko Chen knows what Uncle Zhang wants to say, even though he says nothing. Ko Chen also came up with a more euphemistic way to do this before. But he knows the most effective way to make Yu Fei leave him is to break her heart. "Mrs. Zhang looks very sad. I send a bodyguard to protect her in case something happens." Thinking about Yu Fei's reaction, Uncle Zhang finally talks about it.

Ko Chen closes his eyes and remains silent. He says nothing at all.

"Fei, don't blame me. I have no choice."

If he had known things would be like this, he wouldn't have said those words impulsively the moment he left his office. Ko Chen thinks about this regretfully. Otherwise, Yu Fei wouldn't be hurt so badly by him.

However, there's no way that Ko Chen understands love is uncontrollable. Even if he were given a thousand chances, he would definitely do something when he sees Yu Fei beaten by others.

After all, she is the apple of his eye, his most cherished woman.

Yu Yu runs out from the estate of Ko as if she lost her soul. It is completely dark. There's only a dim light from the road lamp, which shines on her but gives her no warmth.

Without any sign, it suddenly rains heavily. Yu Fei is totally soaked by the rain. Her hair sticks to her pale face. She is awkwardly embarrassed.

The bodyguard sees what Yu Fei is like. Afraid of being blamed by Chairman Ko, he takes out his phone, looks down and calls Uncle Zhang. When he makes the call, he looks up and replaces that the woman in front of him is gone. He is so terrified that he hangs up the phone immediately and runs out to look for Yu Fei.

Right now, Yu Fei is sitting on the passenger's seat in Gu Yi's car.

Gu Yi is driving back home from work when he sees Yu Fei. It rains heavily. There are few pedestrians on the road. The only pedestrians are holding umbrellas and walking in a hurry. Yu Fei is totally unlike them. She is so different that Gu Yi notices her quickly.

At the beginning, he doesn't know it was her. He is just curious about why this girl doesn't replace a place to hide from the heavy rain. When he drives closer, he notices that her back is so familiar to him. He drives nearer, opens the window and replaces out that she is Yu Fei!

Hearing the rain, Yu Fei raises her head absently. She looks at Gu Yi in absent-mindedness. There's no light and focus in her eyes. And her face is pale.

Gu Yi feels both angry and pained when he sees what Yu Fei is like. He pushes her into his car without saying a word. He dries her hair carefully with a towel and then heats the car.

Yu Yu doesn't say anything in the whole process. She does everything Gu Yi tells him to do. Apparently, she is stimulated by something again. He knows it is Ko Chen without even asking.

He drives back at a high speed. He gets the bath water ready and gives his pajama to Yu Fei, "This is new. Just make do. After taking a shower, put it on."

He doesn't know whether Yu Fei listens to him or not because she makes no reaction. Her eyes focus on nothing and he doesn't know what she looks at.

He holds her face and makes her look at him. He tells her again and again: "Yu Fei, look at me."

Yu Fei's eyes move and roll. She looks at Gu Yi. Although her face shows no emotion, at least she looks at him. Gu Yi feels relieved a little bit. His voice goes tenderer.

"Good girl. Now get in and take a shower. You can't catch a cold. Think about your baby in your belly. Listen to me."

The word "baby" touches Yu Fei's nerves in her brain. She blinks her eyes twice and her eyes become red immediately. Two drops of tears come out of her eyes without any sign. Before Gu Yi asks, she grasps the pajama firmly, turns around and walks into the bathroom.

Gu Yi looks at her back and thinks. He gives a cold smile after a while. If Yu Fei saw this, she would feel unbelievable that a man who is so warm and optimistic like him would make a face like that.

When she is soaking in the hot bath, the cold air inside her body is dispelled out completely. Yu Fei closes her eyes, recalling those cruel words from Ko Chen unconsciously:

"If I didn't pretend to be like that, how can I cheat that silly woman so that she can think that I still love her, so as to make her suffer a second heavy blow."

"I never loved her."

These words are like a curse, echoing in her ears. It doesn't help at all when she uses her hands to cover her ears, trying to avoid these words.

"Ah!" Yu Fei cries out painfully. She lowers down, immersing her entire body into the water.
