Chapter 16

As the night grew darker.

Gu Wan’an kept yawning while her eyes were full of vigilance as she glanced at her nominal husband, still a little worried inside.

How should she get along with a man while sharing the same room?

Gong Mingye, on the other hand, acted as if she didn’t exist at all, treating her like air as he stared at the computer.

As time passed, Gu Wan’an started feeling sleepy. Unable to hold on any longer, she fell asleep.

The next morning, she was woken up by the sound of a bell, and her gaze wandered to the man on the bed.

Gong Mingye was sitting on the bed, barechested. The view of the naked body fell on her eyes, extremely stimulating.

Gu Wan’an’s eyes widened, and her drowsiness disappeared instantly.

Gong Mingye was still expressionless as if he didn’t notice her reaction. He put on his blouse and fastened the buttons before saying. “Come here.”

“What?”

“Put on the tie.”

“Don’t you have hands?” Gu Wan’an frowned.

“Shen Ziqing, it’s written in the contract that you have to cooperate with me unconditionally to play the role of a loving couple. Don’t make me repeat myself.”

Gu Wan’an gritted her teeth and glared at Gong Mingye with her bright eyes.

“What, do you have a problem with that?” Seeing that she was hesitant to move, Gong Mingye said impatiently, “If you have any objections, get out of the Gong family.”

Get out?

Of course, it was impossible!

Therefore, she could only put up with it!

Gu Wan’an rolled her eyes in annoyance, then stood up from the sofa and walked to the man to take the tie.

This was her first time tying a tie for a man.

After putting the tie under the collar of his blouse, she was slightly stumped as she didn’t know where to start.

After carefully recalling the tying method in the TV series, Gu Wan’an began to battle with the tie. Yes, first this way, then that way, and there you go!

However, imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

A few moments later, she stared at the tie that had been messed up and even looked a bit like a bow tie, and silently gulped.

It clearly looked very simple, but in her hands, why did it become like this?

“Do you even know how to tie a tie?” Gong Mingye gave her a sidelong glance and suddenly spoke.

“So what if you don’t know how to tie it? I’ve never eaten pork before, but I’ve seen pigs running. There are often scenes of people tying ties on TV and I’ve watched them all.” Gu Wan’an said stubbornly.

Gong Mingye snorted coldly. “Are you sure you’re looking at the tie and not the shoelaces?”

Gu Wan’an was a little embarrassed, her temper got the better of her after getting ridiculed and she sneered, “I’m not tying it anymore. You do it yourself!”

As soon as her words fell, she let go of the tie and threw it away.

Gong Mingye’s handsome face sank. He moved faster than her and grabbed her hand with his large palm. “Follow and learn.”

Gu Wan’an was startled. Her face was full of astonishment, and her body stiffened. “I don’t have any clothes that need a tie. I don’t have to learn.”

“As Mrs. Gong, you don’t even know how to tie a tie. Are you trying to disgrace me?” Gong Mingye snorted coldly, his tone overbearing. “You must learn.”

Her hand was held by the man, and she was forced to follow one step after another. Gu Wan’an bit her lower lip, feeling as if an iron was placed on the back of her hand, scalding hot.

The position was a little too ambiguous and intimate.

“The long one is wrapped around the short one in half a circle. Then, it is taken out from the collar. The long one is pulled inside through the place where it is wrapped…” Gong Mingye’s tone was clear and cold, and his eyes were slightly downcast.

Just then, Gu Wan’an raised her head.

Their gazes met.

“What are you looking at? Did you get it?” Gong Mingye’s cold gaze fell on Gu Wan’an.

“Yes.” She responded perfunctorily and quickly withdrew her hand.

Gong Mingye didn’t make things difficult for her anymore. He adjusted his tie and put on his coat.
