If that was the case, she could only rely on kissing to recover her taste buds.
Qiao Xi looked at the calm water surface. It was already midnight.
Not only did she not succeed, but she also proved that Gu Zheng had an underlying disease.
After thinking about it, she realized that all her efforts had been in vain. Hence, she turned red with anger.
Gu Zheng went out of the pool and turned around to say gently, “Let’s go. We should rest.”
Qiao Xi smiled lightly and pretended to be gentle.
[Bastard, just you wait!]
The corners of Gu Zheng’s mouth twitched.
After the two of them were done washing up, she returned to the villa and went straight into Gu Zheng’s room.
Gu Zheng was stunned. “You’re sleeping here?”
Qiao Xi frowned and sighed. “Ah Zheng, don’t be sad. I won’t look down on you.”
Gu Zheng looked confused, not understanding what she meant. Then, he heard her say earnestly, “If I don’t accompany you, how are you going to survive this painful and long night alone?”
Why would it be painful?
Qiao Xi continued, “The world says that you’re cold, but you were willing to swim with me and even gave me a gift…”
Gu Zheng frowned.
Qiao Xi was slightly sad. “I know that you have me in your heart. Otherwise, why would you be so good to me? It’s just that… A beauty like me is standing in front of you, yet you can’t do anything. I understand the pain in your heart.”
Gu Zheng seemed to understand something.
Qiao Xi’s tone was helpless. “Men won’t tell others about their hidden illness, much less let their partners know about it. But it’s fine, I won’t despise you. Since I’ve married you, I’ll accompany you. We won’t do anything tonight. We’ll just hug each other and sleep.
“That’s why I’ve decided not to leave tonight. I’ll be by your side. Don’t be sad!”
Gu Zheng: “…”
Qiao Xi started giving a long speech. “Senior, we’ve shared a relationship for ten years, so I won’t mind. Even if you can’t do that forever, I won’t mind.
“I like you, so it doesn’t matter whether you can do that or not. Don’t feel inferior. Besides, medical technology is so advanced nowadays. You’ll definitely be able to recover. I can also treat you. Don’t be afraid of treatment. This isn’t a big problem.
“If it really can’t be cured, you’ll still be handsome, rich, and better than other men.”
Gu Zheng’s expression was gloomy like ink. “Qiao Xi!”
Qiao Xi quickly rushed into the bed. “Come on, Senior! Come into my arms. Don’t be afraid!”
Gu Zheng: “…”
This woman was definitely doing this on purpose!
Qiao Xi ignored the man standing by the bed. She fell asleep not long after closing her eyes.
The lights in the room were dim, and there was only a weak ray of light. The scattered ray of light was better than nothing to Gu Zheng.
His vision was gray, and he could only rely on his memory to move closer to the bed. He stroked her face gently before kissing her soft lips.
Mrs. Gu was too naughty today and he almost could not control himself.
He was lying on the bed when his phone rang. Gu Zheng unlocked his phone and heard Gu Yao’s voice.
“Gu Zheng, someone from the Lu family… came to the Gu family’s old mansion because of the heir.”
…
Late at night, the lights were still switched on in the Gu family’s old residence.
Gu Yao was awakened by the noise downstairs. When he came out, he saw that the Lu family had arrived.
He was about to leave when someone stopped him. “Are you Gu Yao?”
Gu Yao was stunned. The person in front of him looked a little familiar.
Madam Gu hurriedly introduced them. “Ah Yao, quickly come and greet him. This is Lu Yan.”
Lu Yan?
Gu Yao reacted for a while. Lu Yan was the adopted son of the Lu family?
Rumor had it that Lu Yan was Lu Qingyun’s biological son and was also a descendant of the Gu family.
Madam Gu greeted him warmly. “Lu Yan, what would you like to drink? I’ll go prepare it now.”
Lu Yan gently replied, “It’s fine, no need to trouble yourself.”
Gu Yao: “…”
Why did this scene feel a little wrong? The mistress seemed to be quite enthusiastic about the first wife’s son?
It was as though Lu Yan was her child while Gu Zheng was Lu Qingyun’s child.
Chairman Gu, Gu Weiming, was sitting on the sofa in the living room with Madam Gu and Huang Lilan beside him..
