Chapter 43

Gu Nantian looked at Gu Xinyi and slowly stretched his hand toward her neck. Gu Xinyi thought he wanted to touch her but out of a sudden, he strangled her. “You know, that was in the past. You’re now alive because Zhiyin saved you. If you touch Zhiyin again, I’ll see that you disappear completely from this world.”

Gu Nantian’s tone of voice and eyes turned cold. Toward the end, his eyes were as if covered by a layer of frost and it was terrifying.

Gu Xinyi had stayed by Gu Nantian’s side for many years and she knew better than anyone else that Gu Nantian could do what he said!

These few days, although Gu Nantian had been chasing Gu Xinyi away, comparatively, he was not as terrifying as this current moment.

This moment, Gu Nantian looked like he had returned to the time he had not lost his memory.

With his hands on her neck, he seemed he could kill her anytime. Gu Xinyi looked at Gu Nantian and dared not utter a single word.

She didn’t want to mess with the terrifying Gu Nantian and was afraid to die.

When he saw Gu Xinyi weakened, Gu Nantian let go of her. He then wiped his hands with the towel Qiao shoved to him.

Xu Zhiyin had been watching silently by the side.

She stood there till Gu Nantian walked over and held her hand. She felt her hand burning and she wanted to dodge…

Various signs told her she should stay far away from Gu Nantian.

Whether it was what Gu Nantian did or what Ji Liunian told her or even how Gu Xinyi treated her, Xu Zhiyin thought if she were to continue working for Gu Nantian, one day she would get into trouble.

Gu Nantian looked at his rejected hand. “Darling…”

Xu Zhiyin turned around, about to leave.

Gu Nantian trailed behind her and walked out of his uncle’s garden. Gu Nantian looked at her. “I’m sorry, it’s my fault this happened.”

If he had not wasted time talking to Ji Liunian, he could have come over earlier.

Xu Zhiyin pursed her lips and had no desire to speak.

Both of them walked to the entrance of the hall and Xu Zhiyin stopped. She looked at Qiao who was tailing them. “Do I still need to go in?”

If her task had not been completed, she would try her best to endure till the end.

She had been too self-willed just now.

Qiao said, “If Dr. Xu doesn’t want to stay, you may go home first.”

Originally, he brought Xu Zhiyin here to let everyone know Xu Zhiyin was Gu Nantian’s woman.

However, he didn’t expect Xu Zhiyin to resist this.

Gu Nantian sensed he had been ignored and felt uneasy. “Darling, are you angry with me?”

Xu Zhiyin ignored him but nodded at Qiao. “Then, I’ll leave first.”

“I’ll leave with you.” Gu Nantian couldn’t bear letting her go home alone.

Qiao held onto him. “Master.”

“Why are you blocking me?” Gu Nantian frowned.

“Dr. Xu is unhappy now. Please let her keep calm! Let’s go home ourselves.” Although he knew Gu Nantian was unwilling to part with Xu Zhiyin, he should give her some space and freedom, shouldn’t he?

When Xu Zhiyin walked out of Gu’s mansion entrance, the driver was ready.

She got up the car and was sent back to Gu Nantian’s house. She took a shower and slept.

She was very tired!

She felt exhausted the minute she lay down on the bed.

“Darling, are you asleep?” After a while, Gu Nantian’s voice was heard from outside.

He was home!

Xu Zhiyin used her hand to cover her eyes and kept quiet. She told herself she should not have too much contact with Gu Nantian except for matters related to work.

Gu Nantian called her a few times and since she didn’t answer, he didn’t disturb her.

Xu Zhiyin thought he had given up.

However, just a while later, she heard the sound of door unlocking.

What the hell!

Did this man think she was asleep and take the opportunity to creep into her room?

She sat down anxiously and wanted to stop that bastard but the door was opened that instant.

She had no choice but go back up to her bed and pretend to sleep. She didn’t want to face him.

After Gu Nantian came in, he gently closed the door, just like what he did the first day he ‘sleepwalked’ into her room.

When he saw Xu Zhiyin lying on the bed, his heart sank.

He had been knocking on her door but there was no response. He had almost thought she was not in the room.

Xu Zhiyin lay on the bed and could feel Gu Nantian staring at her but she didn’t move.

She didn’t know why she pretended to sleep. She was probably waiting to see what Gu Nantian would do that would exceed what was proper when she was asleep.

Very quickly, she felt Gu Nantian climbing onto her bed and hugging her, pressing her body.

Although he controlled his strength, it was still strenuous for Xu Zhiyin to support his weight.

Gu Nantian hugged her in his embrace and examined her gently. He wanted to look at her properly without other thoughts.

However, when he saw Xu Zhiyin below him, his thoughts became impure.

She was really pretty!

In his eyes, Xu Zhiyin had the Photoshop special effect and looked more beautiful than usual.

So, when he regained his senses, his lips had pressed on Xu Zhiyin’s lips and the tip of his tongue was restlessly licking her lips.

Xu Zhiyin clenched her fists tightly. She saluted her own calmness. How could she endure when he was doing such extreme gestures? Her endurance had increased tremendously.

She thought, Gu Nantian would stop after kissing her.

She didn’t believe he would do more than kissing!

All this while, he had remained in his boundary and did not exceed their relationship.

In the end, just as she was thinking, his hand ventured into her clothes!

Oh goodness!

Had he gotten addicted?

Gu Nantian put his hand into her clothes to touch her. Anyway, she was asleep and wouldn’t know.

Moreover, this was not his fault.

Her scent was too good and he couldn’t stop.

In the room, his heavy breathing became more and more obvious. His lips slowly left her face and ventured downward…

Xu Zhiyin clenched her fists tightly and opened her eyes suddenly. She wanted to know how this man would explain his creeping into her room when he was caught on the spot.

Gu Nantian was scared out of his wits when her suddenly opened eyes met his.

“What are you doing?” Xu Zhiyin did not push him away immediately. She looked at his hands on her body and asked coldly.

Gu Nantian licked his lips and just like a child who did something wrong, drew his hands out but thought this was too obvious. He touched her breast a few times and tried to cover up. “I saw insects going in just now. I was helping you to catch the insects.”

Upon hearing the excuse Gu Nantian gave, Xu Zhiyin could neither cry nor laugh.

Was he treating her as a three-year-old child?

Or did he think she was dumb?

Even if he had to find an excuse, couldn’t he find a better one?

Xu Zhiyin looked at Gu Nantian coldly. “So, I should thank you?”
