Gu Zhengâs hot palm landed on her shoulder, caressing her delicate skin. His touch was slightly cold. He was silent for a moment, then his eyes suddenly burned. âAre you sure you donât want to wear it?â
The manâs handsome face suddenly approached her. His eyes were filled with gentleness, but they carried a trace of a smile. His entire body emitted a sense of invasion, causing Qiao Xiâs heart to beat violently.
Seeing that she did not respond for a long time, the man said in a low voice, âAlright.â
As soon as he finished speaking, dense kisses landed on Qiao Xiâs collarbone. Hot air filled her entire body, causing her to tremble. His slightly cold lips gradually became hot with a trace of impatience and ferocity, leaving marks on her fair skin.
After a long time, Gu Zheng slowly looked up and licked his lips. His voice was hoarse and a little lingering. âMrs. Gu, arenât you going to wear it now?â
Qiao Xi gradually recovered from her shock and looked at him with dazed eyes.
His body was slightly stiff as the flames in the depths of his body roared. At this moment, Qiao Xiâs face was red, and her fair collarbone was filled with red marks. She looked at him innocently. With just a glance, the self-control he was proud of was about to disappear without a trace.
âBe good and put it on.â
Qiao Xi tilted her head to look at the mirror at the side. She instantly seemed as if she had been struck by lightning.
Gu Zheng picked up his jacket and wrapped it around her upper body carefully. He would never allow anyone to see such an alluring side to Mrs. Gu.
Seeing that Mrs. Gu had put on his jacket, Gu Zheng touched her cheek gently and smiled. âMrs. Gu, youâre not allowed to wear so little in the future. Otherwise, youâll have to pay the price.â
Qiao Xi: ââ¦â Damn! This bastard! He actually thought of such a method to deal with her. Now, she had to wear it even if she didnât want to. She couldnât participate in the exchange meeting with hickeys all over her neck!
She pushed Gu Zheng angrily, but the man took the opportunity to grab her hand and pull her into his arms. His voice was hoarse and low. âXi Xi, Iâll be jealous.â
......
Qiao Xiâs entire body trembled. She could clearly feel the manâs scorching breath on her neck. She heard him say helplessly, âIâm a man and your husband. I canât accept the gaze of another man on you.â
When she appeared in front of everyone, he could clearly see the stunned gazes of those men. At that moment, he began to feel angry and uneasy because his most precious woman was being coveted by others.
Qiao Xi blinked and took a few seconds to react. She reached out to hug the manâs strong waist. She replied obediently, âI understand.â
Xia Mengyan stood not far away and looked at the two people hugging in the corner, her eyes filled with resentment.
After a while, Gu Zheng let go and said gently, âWait for me in the lounge first. Iâm going to attend a meeting. Iâll come back to look for you after itâs over.â
Qiao Xi smiled and nodded as she watched Gu Zheng leave. She was just about to enter the lounge when an old roar came from behind. âHow shameless!â
This voice was a little familiar. Qiao Xi slowly turned around and saw an old man with an angry expression. After sizing him up, Qiao Xi remembered that the old man in front of her was the Lu familyâs old master.
Old Master Lu said disdainfully, âYouâre really a wild girl who grew up in the countryside. Youâre so shameless. Youâre hugging a man outside and even wearing a manâs clothes!â
Qiao Xi was not angry but raised her eyebrows. âOld Master Lu, my husband and I are legally married. Who said I canât wear his clothes? Who said I canât hug him?â
With that, she looked at the middle-aged woman in the distance and sneered. âOld Master, youâre attending the perfume exchange meeting with a mistress. Is this the rule of your Lu family? You havenât even taken care of your own matters yet. Do you have the right to interfere in my affairs?â
Hearing Qiao Xiâs ridicule, Old Master Luâs expression instantly turned ferocious. âQingyunâs mother passed away a long time ago!â
Qiao Xi retorted, âSo what? Can a mistress attend events openly after the death of the first wife? I think Ah Zheng is very good. He has never had any scandals and only dotes on me. Even if he sits on the supreme throne, thereâs nothing to nitpick. But you⦠Tsk tsk.â
Old Master Lu choked.
Everyone in high society knew that Lu Qingyun was born from his first wife, while Lu Xiang was the daughter of a mistress he kept outside. It was just that Lu Qingyunâs mother died early, so no one mentioned this matter anymore. Unexpectedly, Qiao Xi brought up the past again today. This was clearly a slap to his face!
