Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage

Chapter 857: Chapter 858: Guilt?

Gu Qichen’s body clearly stiffened for a moment.

Xia Yangyang had almost never taken such initiative before.

Xia Yangyang’s lips were warm, fragrant, and soft, like the taste of a honey peach.

With that irresistible temptation.

Her initiative was like setting fire to a stack of hay.

It blazed up at once, burning like a wildfire.

But Gu Qichen’s heart was not at ease.

Xia Yangyang seldom did this, so why now?

Because of guilt?

Because she had revisited the campus with Gu Zhaohan?

Yet Xia Yangyang could feel Gu Qichen’s hesitation and resistance.

Her heart felt even less assured.

What on earth was wrong with Gu Qichen?

What on earth was happening between them?

The image that surfaced in her mind was still of Gu Qichen and Xi Zijun drinking red wine shoulder to shoulder.

What was his trouble that he couldn’t tell her, but could confide in Xi Zijun?

Xia Yangyang was also treading carefully.

Even when all the misunderstandings had been cleared up before.

Xia Yangyang still hesitated whether to reconcile or not.

Without Gu Qichen, she felt her emotions were calm.

But the moment she was by Gu Qichen’s side, she always felt like her mood was on a roller coaster.

Sometimes it was unbearably sweet, and other times, it seemed as though the four years had ultimately left a chasm between them.

Xia Yangyang really wanted to know what Xi Zijun meant to Gu Qichen deep down in his heart.

But that so-called layer of trust had her trapped.

She was supposed to trust Gu Qichen unconditionally, wasn’t she?

Just like he had once said—if there were really something between him and another woman, he wouldn’t have waited for her all these years.

Xia Yangyang gently removed Gu Qichen’s jacket.

Her soft hands then covered his chest…

Gu Qichen finally couldn’t hold back and took control.

He directly picked up Xia Yangyang horizontally…

Xia Yangyang had woken up early.

She stared blankly at the ceiling.

She hadn’t slept well the night before.

Gu Qichen had been like a man possessed.

Xia Yangyang could feel the cold rage emanating from his body.

But she didn’t know why.

The more she cooperated, the more dissatisfied he became.

Even now, Xia Yangyang felt sore all over.

Xia Yangyang turned to look at the man sleeping beside her.

His face was still so handsome.

Xia Yangyang cautiously got up, got dressed, and went to the kitchen.

After Xia Yangyang left, Gu Qichen opened his eyes.

His gaze was lucid.

Last night’s Xia Yangyang had been very abnormal, no matter how much he tormented her, it seemed as though she was always enduring.

But why was she doing this?

If not out of guilt, then why?

Gu Qichen had been waiting for Xia Yangyang to open up on her own.

But regarding Gu Zhaohan, Xia Yangyang still hadn’t said a word.

When Gu Qichen got up, Xia Yangyang had already prepared breakfast in the dining room.

The breakfast was rich; she had made millet porridge, fried eggs, and also made two sandwiches.

Seeing Gu Qichen already dressed and appearing at the doorway, Xia Yangyang showed a smile, “You’re up, come eat breakfast, I just finished making it.”

Xia Yangyang’s smile was beautiful, like bright sunshine.

But Gu Qichen clearly saw that even the curve of her lips was forced.

Why did she have to pretend in front of him?

The more Gu Qichen thought about it, the worse he felt inside.

“I’m not eating, I’m not hungry, I’ll leave first.”

Gu Qichen planned to leave directly.

On Xia Yangyang’s face, disappointment was clearly visible.

Couldn’t Gu Qichen see that she was trying to please him?
