Chapter 781 - It’s Yours When You Have Me

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Gu Nianzhi sensed that something was not right. She opened her eyes wide. Her whole body became stiff.

She remembered that she had found Huo Shaoheng sleeping on top of her quilt in the middle of the night the day before. She had become soft-hearted momentarily and let him inside the quilt with her...

It was really hard to explain men in the morning in a few words.

Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes and moved her body slowly to the other side of the bed.

At that moment, Huo Shaoheng also woke up. He languidly pulled Gu Nianzhi back and embraced her. He buried his face in the nape of her neck and took a deep breath of her scent. His tone was deep and had a lethargic kind of throaty quality. It sounded so good that it could impregnate her ears. “Awake? What are you hiding for?”

Gu Nianzhi turned around and was displeased, but she also found it hard to talk. She could only try her best to evade him.

It looked like Huo Shaoheng understood her. He chuckled into her ear. His laughter was magnetic and full of temptations that were hard to describe.

He bit Gu Nianzhi’s earlobe and groggily said, “...You are a top student. Could it be that you never learned health and physiology?”

Of course, Gu Nianzhi knew what was going on. Even if she was not a top student, she had already done it with Huo Shaoheng. She wouldn’t be argumentative.

That was not being innocent or pure. It was a sweet, naïve young woman’s temptation.

However, she felt especially awkward. She didn’t want to be so close to him.

“...Since you are already awake, shouldn’t you go to the guest room?” Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes and tried her best to suggest that calmly.

“Tired, can’t move.” Huo Shaoheng sighed. He circled his arms in front of him. One arm passed under her body and encircled her. He pulled her to his chest. “Sleep with me for a little while longer.”

When Huo Shaoheng said that, Gu Nianzhi remembered how the night before Huo Shaoheng had incoherently said that he “hadn’t slept in four days”. Her heart tightened and she hesitated a bit and softly said, “Inadequate sleep is bad for your health.”

“You know that, huh? Then why do you stay up all night?” Huo Shaoheng didn’t open his eyes and hugged Gu Nianzhi. Again, he took a deep breath and smelled her neck. “...What perfume do you use?”

“Who sleeps and put on perfume?” Gu Nianzhi moved her shoulder. “You think everyone is Marilyn Monroe? That women only wear Chanel No. 5 when they sleep?”

Huo Shoheng didn’t continue the conversation. He started to kiss Gu Nianzhi’s exposed shoulder.

The exquisite, soft, tender, sweet-smelling shoulder served as a foil under the black t-shirt. Her skin’s beauty trumped the brilliance of snow. Exposed to the first rays of the morning sun, it seemed glazed in a layer of sparkling light.

His two hands crossed and gathered together in front of Gu Nianzhi’s body. Their two bodies were glued together as they spooned.

He deliberately sucked on her shoulder until a little strawberry mark appeared on her snowy-white shoulder.

Gu Nianzhi’s heart almost jumped out of her chest when she felt the hickey on her shoulder. She was a bit flustered. She grabbed Huo Shaoheng’s hands, panted, and said, “You... didn’t you say you haven’t slept for four days? You’d better make up for the lack of sleep. I have to get up.”

Huo Shaoheng started to kiss her earlobe again. He spoke into her ear and said, “...Nianzhi, when will you give in already?”

“Isn’t it too soon? You just started courting me how many days ago?” Gu Nianzhi immediately felt her heartbeat becoming normal. “You can’t take it that fast.”

Huo Shaoheng sighed. “Fine. I can continue to court you, but you can’t avoid me anymore.”

Gu Nianzhi actually did still have the idea of avoiding him. She had always felt that as long as two people didn’t meet and had no interactions, then no matter how deep the emotions they had, they would all disappear eventually.

However, Huo Shaoheng didn’t want to give up. Although he didn’t have much time, he would contact her or call her or see her directly in order to keep pursuing her.

Nevertheless, Gu Nianzhi had just come out of an infatuation that made her neglect herself. She really didn’t want to make the same mistake again.

Or, it could be said that she still didn’t have the confidence to grow old with a man like Huo Shaoheng.

This man was too good. So good that even she felt like she was unworthy of him...

Huo Shaoheng saw that Gu Nianzhi didn’t say anything, so he used his arm strength and hugged her as he turned her around. Face to face and forehead to forehead, he continued to ask, “...What are you afraid of? I’m already married to you. What are you still worried about?”

“...Married, we can still get a divorce. Mr. Huo, in today’s society marriage, doesn’t mean anything,” Gu Nianzhi answered calmly. She pressed her palm to Huo Shaoheng’s chest and tried her best to not lean too close to him.

However, when Huo Shaoheng tightened his arms, she bumped into his very hard chest. It hurt a bit.

“Divorce? Nianzhi, I will not divorce you.” Huo Shaoheng said it displeasingly.

“You won’t? But I remember you said that if I still don’t agree within three years that you will terminate our marriage.” Gu Nianzhi felt like something was wrong the moment she heard that. She immediately got a hold of the loophole in what Huo Shaoheng had said.

Huo Shaoheng wetted his lips. He thought that it was true since his head was not too clear in the morning...

One always had to be vigilant when speaking to a person like Gu Nianzhi who had an especially good memory.

“...Yes, correct, but don’t you forget that you should be with me for these three years. If you don’t even try then you are only acting in a perfunctory manner.” Huo Shaoheng quickly took charge of the conversation. “If you are constantly avoiding me, our three years will be postponed.”

While he was saying that he was secretly making little movements to divert Gu Nianzhi’s attention.

Gu Nianzhi was constantly thinking about how to refute what Huo Shaoheng had said. She didn’t want him to lead her into a trap. Therefore, she didn’t notice what he was doing.

Gu Nianzhi only came to her senses after he did it a few times. Her small snowy-white face immediately turned bright red. She angrily scolded him. “What are you doing?!”

“I’m trying to quench my thirst by thinking of plums.” Huo Shaoheng chuckled. Then he got near her ear and requested something that he knew she would not agree to. Something that he could not help but ask.

Gu Nianzhi really did groan vexingly. “...No.”

“Then when? How about we schedule a time?”

Gu Nianzhi only felt her face burning. How could Huo Shaoheng say such a shameful thing?!

“...Yes? When?” Huo Shaoheng continued to ask. “I won’t force you, but you can’t make things difficult for me on purpose, right?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

After a while, Gu Nianzhi looked down. Her two hands were on Huo Shaoheng’s chest and she softly said, “I haven’t agreed to being your girlfriend. Can’t you...can’t... you can’t do that with me.”

“Then when will you be my girlfriend?” It seemed like Huo Shaoheng overestimated his self-control. He slept in the same bed as Gu Nianzhi for one night and it unexpectedly made it difficult to control himself.

“I said that I need to think about it. Continue courting.” Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng and she suddenly smiled. Her big black eyes slyly flashed a bit and she said, “...It’s yours when you have me.”
