Chapter 144  : Please Have Self-Respect

After Gu Lian finished an entire morning of painful practice, he felt that his legs were about to be crippled again.

He knew that it was torture for a girl to wear high heels, but he did not expect this thing to be so uncomfortable. Coupled with the restrictions of Mo Yu’s clothes, the high heels Gu Lian was wearing were eight centimeters tall.

Although it displayed the superiority and beauty of the shape of the legs to the greatest extent, it did let Gu Lian experience how painful it was to walk after the little mermaid went ashore.

Under Gu Lian’s strong request, the two of them finally switched over at lunch.

Gu Lian, who had been tired for the entire morning, was finally not like usual, where he was full after two to three mouthfuls of lunch. Instead, he picked up a bowl and ate two bowls of rice and a bowl of soup. Then, he put down his chopsticks in satisfaction and stood up to walk upstairs.

However, if one looked carefully, they would notice that Gu Lian’s legs were trembling slightly, and his walking posture was very different from before. When he walked, he would pay attention to his knees turning out, so that the force points were focused on his heels. He looked a little like a girl walking in high heels.

Gu Lian returned to his room and lay weakly on the bed. Other than being in a coma for three years, the car accident had left many aftereffects. He could not sit or stand for a long time now. He often felt dizzy for no reason. For example, after staying up all night yesterday, Gu Lian felt fine at first, but after a morning of training, Gu Lian felt that he was about to die. He pulled the blanket over and fell asleep in a daze.

When Gu Lian woke up again, he was woken up by Su Mei.

Gu Lian did not wear a health bracelet yesterday because of the outfit for the event yesterday, so his physical record was missing for the entire night. He only put it on this morning. The bracelet did not have the record of staying up late yesterday, but it recorded Gu Lian’s sleep time during the day.

The nutritionist instinctively thought that Gu Lian had slept the entire night yesterday, and this morning, Mo Yu had slept for four hours, and Gu Lian had slept for four hours in the afternoon. Coupled with yesterday’s sleep, Gu Lian had almost a record of 16 hours.

The nutritionist was worried that this was caused by Gu Lian’s brain problems after the car accident, so he hurriedly informed Su Mei.

Su Mei woke up her son, who was still sleeping, and asked the expert to give Gu Lian a comprehensive physical examination. After seeing that there was no abnormality at all, Su Mei was relieved. However, out of worry, she finally decided to let Gu Lian rest at home and not go to the jewelry exhibition venue.

At six o’clock, the display of the ‘jade’ theme officially began. The audience that surged into Zhao Wen’s and the official live-stream was far higher than yesterday. Some were attracted by Mo Yu’s beauty, and some were just to take a look at Gu Lian.

However, this time, they were disappointed. They saw Gu Zi standing beside Mo Yu. Gu Lian was nowhere to be seen in the entire venue.

Zhao Yun took advantage of her good relationship with Mo Yu and leaned over. “Xiao Yu, everyone is very curious about where President Gu went. Can you reveal a little? Is he on the runway tonight?”

“No, he went for a checkup, so he won’t come today.” Mo Yu and Su Mei had long expected that someone would ask about Gu Lian’s whereabouts at the event location of the exhibition. The few of them had thought of an excuse and said the same thing so that they wouldn’t be exposed in the future. After receiving this news, many people left the live-stream.

They were here for Gu Lian to begin with. Yesterday’s photos had already spread throughout Llife. They could not wait to see what Gu Lian would look like today, but they did not expect him to not come.

[I originally wanted to see President Gu. What a pity.]

[Sister, can you ask President Gu if he will come tomorrow?]

[Same question! Also, ask Sister Mo Yu when she will marry President Gu! The two of you are really sweet!]

[Is President Gu sick again?]

Mo Yu smiled at the comments but did not answer. Gu Lian was lying on the bed and looking at the comments on his cell phone.

Mo Yu today was less mature than yesterday and more playful. Although Gu Lian was unwilling to admit it, Mo Yu’s face was really very good-looking.

At this moment, a bullet screen attracted Gu Lian’s full attention.

[Miss Mo Yu is really good-looking. She looks like an old friend of mine. If possible, I want to get to know her.]

Gu Lian had never seen anyone so blatantly trying to steal someone else’s fiancee. His hand moved faster than his brain to send a bullet comment.

[Gu: Please have some self respect.]

[Gu: She and I are a couple..]
