32 Contract Marriage (30)

It was obvious.

Gu Xichao had made a mistake.

It was a coincidence that Jiang Yuan had met up with Mu Feng and now wanted to talk about the divorce with him.

Gu Xichao naturally thought that Jiang Yuan did that for that man and wanted to leave his side as soon as possible.

However...

A lot of misunderstandings in this world started with the words “I thought...”

***

Originally, when Jiang Yuan asked him if he was free, Gu Xichao couldn’t help but feel happy.

Then, he naturally asked her out to eat.

He even canceled a meeting that was almost going to start.

He didn’t expect that she would give him the divorce settlement agreement the moment she met him.

In that instant, he felt a slight pain in his heart.

It was just a slight, very slight pain.

However, it was numbing, and he couldn’t simply ignore it.

It was only afterward that Gu Xichao understood something.

When one fell in love with someone, he gives the other person the right to hurt him.

***

After dinner, Gu Xichao drove Jiang Yuan back to Dinglan Villa.

In the mansion.

The slender, gorgeous man loosened his necktie, and then slowly removed it and gripped it hard.

When Jiang Yuan saw Gu Xichao removing his necktie, she was shocked. “You want to stay here for the night?”

The man’s lovely face was expressionless. When he heard Jiang Yuan’s words, he looked up deliberately and asked, “Can’t I?”

Jiang Yuan was rendered speechless before mumbled, “It’s not that you can’t. I’m just surprised.”

The mansion belonged to Gu Xichao. She had no right to kick him out.

Jiang Yuan: ?_?

She threw her bag onto the sofa as she looked at the bedroom, looking slightly unsure. “The guest room hasn’t been cleaned lately...”

She then turned to look at Gu Xichao and blinked innocently.

Gu Xichao then changed into his slippers, slowly unbuttoned his shirt, and revealed his fair neck. His elegant Adam’s apple bobbed slightly.

“Who said I am going to stay in the guest room?”

The man walked up to Jiang Yuan. He was quite tall, and his slender physique radiated imposing pressure.

Jiang Yuan blinked and then frowned, “So, shall I stay in the guest room?”

Go Xuchao raised his hand and traced his finger along her face. Then, he pushed some of her hair to the back of her ear gently.

He asked softly, “Why? Why can’t you stay in the master bedroom?”

Jiang Yuan looked at him in shock, “We are sleeping in the same room?”

Gu Xichao pulled back his hand and looked at Jiang Yuan as if he was thinking of something. His eyes were slightly narrowed, and he said, “It’s not like we have never slept with each other. You don’t have to be so excited.”

That was different.

Jiang Yuan rolled her eyes at him, and rejected him without hesitation, “No!”

She turned her head around proudly as she lifted her chin.

Gu Xichao extended his hand, slowly holding Jiang Yuan’s face, and turning it around.

Jiang Yuan was drawn into the dark and blue eyes when she looked at that gentle and beautiful face closely.

Then, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

‘This man had been touching her all day!’

“Jiang Yuan,” Gu Xichao said her name, his voice slow and gentle. His slightly magnetic voice was like music to her ears. It was like a wispy smoke, raspy and attractive.

“You are my wife.

“I didn’t even ask you to fulfill your obligations as a wife, and we are merely sleeping in the same room...

“What are you worried about?”

The man held her face and looked at her closely, her long eyelashes were slightly curled. As he looked into her eyes, she felt tempted.
