Chapter Eight has a rather bad temper

Gu Ruochu paused during her confrontation with Hu Nanchen.

His aura was too strong and a dangerous feeling overcame her.

Seeing that he had such a bad temper, Gu Ruochu was not in the mood to tease him anymore. She immediately turned around and went to the next room. She did not even look at him or bother to close the door.

Huo Nanchen was extremely displeased at her for ignoring him. However, he did not rebuke her again.

The room next door was luxuriously decorated and had a European-style flavor.

Gu Ruochu was too tired. She took a shower and lay on the soft bed before slowly falling asleep.

She dreamt of a wall covered with wisteria flowers.

A girl with shoulder-length, short-hair was sitting in the garden reading a book. She saw a back-lit youth climbing out of the wall. She was frightened. "Who is it?"

"SHH!" The boy extended his index finger to his lips. "It's me, little girl."

"Who are you?"

Gu Ruochu felt that this dream was very real, as if it had happened before. The people, places, scenery, and objects in the dream were all familiar. However, she had no other memories.

Who were they?

What did it have to do with her?

...

"Young Madam. Young Madam..."

In her repeated dreams of the night, Gu Ruochu heard someone calling her. She slowly opened her eyes and realized that she had been dreaming. Her voice was a little hoarse.

"Who is it?"

"It's me, Xiaofang. Young Madam, did you have a nightmare?" Xiaofang had just finished speaking when the door was kicked open.

While the quality of the door was very good, the individual who kicked at the door had a terrible temper.

Gu Ruochu subconsciously pulled the blanket next to her to cover herself. Even though she was wearing pajamas, she was still worried they would find out her secret. This was a habit she had formed when she was Bai Qi.

After all, she had not been a real man. She was always afraid that her true identity would be exposed.

"Did I offend you?" She narrowed her eyes coldly.

Huo Nanchen held the door with one hand. His eyes were filled with a sharp, oppressive light. He was furious. "Why are you screaming in the room all by yourself?"

Gu Ruochu had a blank look on her face. What had she said?

Xiaofang felt a little awkward by the side. She was about to say something when Huo Nanchen turned around and left without saying a word. His back view was arrogant and cold. Gu Ruochu could not make heads or tails of it.

'What is his problem?' Gu Ruochu wondered.

When Xiaofang saw that Huo Nanchen had left, she ran over to Gu Ruochu as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden. "Young Madam. The young master only came to see you because he heard you shouting during your nightmare. He still cares about you."

'Cares about me?'

Gu Ruochu felt goosebumps all over her body when she thought of this.

She took the clothes from Xiaofang and went to the bathroom to change out of her pajamas. Xiaofang tidied up her blanket and could not help but cast a glance at Gu Ruochu's back. Her heart was filled with doubt.

The Young Madam had dared to go against her husband.

In the past, the Young Madam had a weak personality and would always be submissive to anyone, let alone her husband. However, since she had returned from the hospital, she had more courage and seemed to be increasingly mysterious.

This change was too big.

By the time Gu Ruochu came out after changing, Xiaofang had already gone downstairs. She followed the luxurious light brown spiral staircase and slowly walked down the stairs.

Gu Ruochu did not expect Huo Nanchen to follow her down the stairs. They had come down one after the other.

This was the first time Mrs. Huo had seen them come down together. It was impossible for her not to be surprised. There was a deeper meaning and gentleness in her eyes.

"Good morning, father and mother."

Huo Nanchen called out. Gu Ruochu also greeted them. Mrs. Huo was not as cold and stern as she had been the day before. Instead, she was a little more amiable.
