Gu Qingcheng was a bit embarrassed by Huo Sicheng’s straightforward question, as the process of her arrival was rather mysterious. Huo Sicheng noticed that Gu Qingcheng was looking down, but he couldn’t decipher her thoughts.

“What? Can’t say?” he asked. “Did someone bully you? Are you in a hurry to find me to vent your anger?”

Gu Qingcheng gently shook her head. “I’m not that easily bullied. Don’t worry, no one will bully me.”

“That’s true. You even dared to confront Miss Dardo, Renilla,” Huo Sicheng raised his eyebrows. “You’re bold and hot-tempered. No one dares to provoke you.”

“I feel like you’re going to blame me again for not being gentle,” Gu Qingcheng looked up at Huo Sicheng and said. “You said you wouldn’t mind if I wasn’t gentle.”

“I’m not blaming you for not being gentle. I don’t care whether you’re gentle or not,” Huo Sicheng lifted Gu Qingcheng’s chin with his slender fingers, lowering his head to plant a gentle kiss on her lips. “I only care if I’m in your heart.”

“Yes! You’re in my heart,” Gu Qingcheng said without hesitation. “I came to Nice because I was worried about your health. That’s why I asked Chu Yu to give me your address. Don’t blame Chu Yu. I forced him to give me the address.”

Huo Sicheng only heard the first part of Gu Qingcheng’s sentence and ignored the rest.

She stated that she had him in her heart.

He could sense that he occupied a place in her heart.

However, he desired her heart to belong exclusively to him, not shared with Qi Shaoze.

His mouth twitched, and he yearned to express his feelings, but the adoration in Gu Qingcheng’s eyes held him back. He refrained from bringing up Qi Shaoze and disrupting the warmth of the moment.

“You came to Nice simply because you were concerned about my health?” he inquired softly. “You came to see me in such a sorry state while you were drunk and unwell.”

At this mention, Gu Qingcheng pursed her lips and stayed silent for a moment before disclosing everything to Huo Sicheng.

When Huo Sicheng learned that Gu Qingcheng had been drinking at Qi Shaoze’s place, a chill ran down his spine.

He repressed the anger within him, gritting his teeth. “Qi Shaoze told you to drink, and you drank?”

“It felt good to be drunk,” Gu Qingcheng didn’t detect Huo Sicheng’s odd expression. She murmured, “When you’re drunk, you forget about the bad things.”

“You…” Huo Sicheng was frustrated. Seeing Gu Qingcheng’s look of grievance, he tenderly comforted her. “Alright, I won’t scold you. But promise me something.”

Gu Qingcheng nodded. “Okay, I won’t drink.”

“You’re skilled at so many things. You promise me one second and forget it the next,” Huo Sicheng spoke seriously. “Remember, you vowed not to drink. If I catch you drunk again, I’ll teach you a lesson. Don’t feel wronged when that happens.”

Gu Qingcheng recognized that Huo Sicheng was worried about her, so she quickly agreed, “Alright, I’ll follow your lead, hubby.”

Huo Sicheng’s mood lightened somewhat.

“In the future, don’t get soaked in the rain,” his tone was authoritative. “When I’m not around, take care of yourself properly. Don’t be careless and neglect yourself.”

Gu Qingcheng shook her head and gazed up at Huo Sicheng hopefully. “Since you say I’m careless and can’t take care of myself, why don’t you stay by my side always? I want you to look after me.”

This way, he would be hers alone, and he couldn’t evade that fact.

“You’re quite clever,” Huo Sicheng appreciated the fact that Gu Qingcheng relied on him. He pretended indifference. “Why should I take care of you?”

“I’m your wife,” Gu Qingcheng pouted, behaving like a little girl. “Honey, just take care of me.’

Huo Sicheng was pleased with her words. “Alright, I’ll look after you.” He had always been watching out for her.

Previously, it was done discreetly, but now, it was open and aboveboard.

“Honey, you’re the best,” Gu Qingcheng embraced Huo Sicheng and kissed him ardently. She declared joyfully, “Are you happy? I love you the most.”

“Haha,” Huo Sicheng laughed, though he tried to maintain a composed expression. “I’m not the one you love the most.”

“How could that be?” Gu Qingcheng’s expression was serious. “It’s really you.” Her affection for Huo Sicheng was profound, and her words held true.

Huo Sicheng gazed into Gu Qingcheng’s eyes, sensing her genuine sincerity.

Even if she was simply trying to please him or speaking casually, he cherished it and felt elated.

“Let me see.”

Gu Qingcheng was taken aback. “See? See what?”

“Let me see how much you love me,” Huo Sicheng’s lips parted slightly as he spoke with significance. “Otherwise, I won’t truly feel your love.”

Gu Qingcheng encircled her arms around Huo Sicheng’s neck and kissed him. “Then don’t be angry with me in the future. We’ll be fine. I promise you’ll feel

it.”

“Alright,” Huo Sicheng concurred.

Gu Qingcheng smiled and rested her head on Huo Sicheng’s shoulder. “Darling, you’re so wonderful.”

“You’re just realizing that?” Huo Sicheng responded teasingly.

“In the past, I already knew,” Gu Qingcheng chuckled. “Otherwise, why would I marry you? No, that’s not right. Why else would I marry you?”

“You excel in everything. You never admit defeat, and you’re competitive in front of me. Making you yield was harder than ascending to the heavens,” Huo Sicheng said, playfully biting Gu Qingcheng’s lips as a punishment. “Tell me, does it matter who marries you?”

Gu Qingcheng winced, her lips stinging. Frowning at Huo Sicheng, she said, “It’s not important.”

“It’s not important,” Huo Sicheng echoed. “Yet, you always stress that you want to marry me.”

Huo Sicheng noticed that Gu Qingcheng’s lips were swollen and red. He caressed them tenderly with his fingers. “The doctor said you’re quite fragile. You need good rest.” He wasn’t planning to return to Jiang City for the next two days; he intended to rest here.

Gu Qingcheng shook her head. “No, I really need to go back to Jiang City.”

Huo Sicheng’s brow furrowed. Seeing her desire to return to Jiang City, he grew displeased.

Gu Qingcheng noticed Huo Sicheng’s unhappiness. She was unaware that he was upset because she was eager

to see Qi Shaoze. She explained, “The Peach Lotus Cup will take place at a different location the day after tomorrow. Also, Chu He wants me to visit the Gu family for a meal. It’s undoubtedly a trap, but I can’t avoid making a trip back.”

She yearned to stay in Nice and relish their time together, but the real world held too many obligations.

Chu He had leverage over her. She had already postponed meeting Chu He for several days. If Chu He were to exploit that leverage, she might be in a precarious position.

Furthermore, Huo Sicheng had indicated that Yuan Feng and Yuan Qiaolan didn’t possess the information she sought. Since she was unsure what exactly she was looking for, she had to reconnect with Yuan Qiaolan.

Otherwise, Yuan Qiaolan would eventually track her down. It would be wiser for her to address the situation proactively.

Huo Sicheng scrutinized Gu Qingcheng for a while. “It’s getting late. Let’s go back home tomorrow.”

“Okay,” Gu Qingcheng acknowledged Huo Sicheng’s consideration. She embraced him and said, “Honey, let’s head home tomorrow.”

Huo Sicheng nodded, feeling content.

In the living room, Damon’s expression was intricate. His thoughts revolved around Huo Sicheng and Gu Qingcheng.

Renila wore a sweet expression, delighted with the thought of being Huo

Sicheng’s “White Moonlight.”

“Brother, I’m Brother Si Cheng’s ‘White Moonlight,”‘ she admitted to Damon shyly.. “When do you think he’ll propose and marry me?”
