What's Wrong with Getting a New Wife? [Rebirth] [MTL]

Chapter 43

Yan Congyu blinked.

　　He was just testing the waters, he didn't expect it to be so useful.

　　The video was connected quickly.

　　The screen of Yan Congyu's phone was dark at first, and the picture shook for a while before the boy's figure appeared in the camera.

　　The other person should be standing on the balcony. The light next to him is a little dim, and the light from the dormitory shines through from behind, dividing the boundary between light and dark. The boy is facing the light, with a clear shadow on his face and his hair is wet.

In comparison, the background on Yan Congyu's side is much more monotonous, just a pure white background wall.

　　Gu Ji frowned and spoke first: "Where did you touch? Let me see."

　　The voice came through the phone, with a familiar clean and low tone. Because Yan Congyu was wearing headphones, it was so close that it sounded like he was whispering in her ear.

　　"Wait a moment."

　　Yan Congyu stood up, placed his phone on the table, and began to unbutton his shirt.

　　"etc--"

　　It was not until the top button of the shirt was unbuttoned, revealing the fair and distinct collarbone, that Gu Ji's pupils trembled unconsciously, and then he reacted, "...isn't your arm injured?"

　　Yan Congyu raised his eyes and pointed at his upper arm, "Here."

　　The sleeves cannot be rolled up completely near the shoulders, so I have to unbutton my clothes first.

　　"..."

　　Gu Ji pursed his lips, and struggled for a moment. In the end, his concern for the other party's injury prevailed. He held the phone further away and said, "Then take it off."

　　Just at this moment, Cheng Zhuo, who was about to go to the balcony to collect clothes, heard these words without noticing them.

　　Stunned.

　　He didn't even bother to collect his clothes, and quickly climbed onto Xu Jingyin's bed, grabbed him and said excitedly: "Guess what I heard?"

　　Xu Jingyin was almost pressed against the wall by Cheng Zhuo, "...what did you hear?"

　　Cheng Zhuo leaned close to Xu Jingyin's ear and whispered something.

　　Xu Jingyin was shocked, but calmed down after a while, "...I don't think Xiao Gu is that kind of person."

　　Cheng Zhuo said firmly: "I heard it."

　　He pointed to the balcony and said, "Look, Brother Gu hasn't come in yet, so he must be still working on it."

　　Although Xu Jingyin felt that it was outrageous, he couldn't help but waver a little when he saw Cheng Zhuo was so confident.

　　"Did you see who he was talking to?"

　　Cheng Zhuo shook his head, "I didn't see it."

　　Xu Jingyin's eyes were complicated, and he was half-believing and half-doubting: "It's okay, it might be a misunderstanding, I'll ask him tomorrow."

　　On the balcony.

　　Yan Congyu only unbuttoned a few buttons and pulled it down slightly. There was a deep red mark on his upper arm near his shoulder, and blood had already appeared.

　　"I washed it, but it didn't seem to help." Yan Congyu turned sideways to reveal the scratched area.

　　Gu Ji frowned, "How did you do that?"
