Chapter 173: Chapter 174: Compliment Him

Translator: 549690339

Up until now, Gu Qichen could not figure out why.

He never had any desire for women.

Even Shen Manbing, he never harbored such thoughts.

He had also considered that it might be something wrong with himself.

But everything seemed to change the night he encountered this girl.

It was as if within him lay a dormant beast, awakened that very night, now uncontrollable.

He could feel that some of the principles he adhered to for many years, collapsed eventually.

Yes, he acted as a villain, a pseudo gentleman taking advantage of someone else’s peril.

He knew full well that Xia Yangyang was not aware of her actions, but he still took advantage of her.

That night, he couldn’t sleep.

Watching the girl sleeping soundly next to him, looking as innocent as a kitten, he was lost in confusion for the first time.

Why her?

He too couldn’t figure out the answer to this question.

Gu Qichen never believed in fate.

However, after meeting Xia Yangyang, he could always feel a sense of predestined fate, as if it was meant to be.

That first-time feeling of a fluttering heart.

When she lunged to kiss him, he trembled with a sensation akin to an electric shock, a sensation of involuntary shivering throughout his body, something Gu Qichen had never experienced before.

It was not without struggle.

This girl seemed to shatter his principles as soon as she appeared, like a stone causing ripples as it splashes into calm waters.

And yet, she dare ask him why?

He wanted to know the answer more than she did.

Hearing Gu Qichen’s words, Xia Yangyang’s heart skipped a beat inexplicably.

Gu Qichen said that he liked her from the first time he laid eyes on her.

Fireworks exploded in her mind, and her heart filled with rosy bubbles, threatening to spill over.

Head lowered in shyness, Xia Yangyang asked: “So, are you confessing to me?”

Gu Qichen slightly raised an eyebrow: “It would seem so.”

Xia Yangyang felt overjoyed.

Suddenly changing the topic, Gu Qichen asked: “What about you?”

Xia Yangyang: “What about me?”

“That morning, why were you so quick to agree when I proposed to marry you?”

Xia Yangyang answered, “I was heartbroken at the time, and the best way to get over a break-up is to start a new relationship. Besides, we had inexplicably slept together, so who else could I marry If not you? Let’s not forget your status and the fact that you are quite eligible, so I reluctantly agreed.”

When Xia Yangyang turned to look at Gu Qichen again, he had an half angry expression on his face.

Gu Qichen gnashed his teeth, “So you just used me as a tool to cope with your feelings at the time?”

“What else?”

Xia Yangyang deliberately teased him and found it amusing to see Gu Qichen’s expression grow increasingly sullen.

Gu Qichen’s voice turned icy, a reluctant query escaping his lips, “What about now?”

Xia Yangyang posed thoughtfully: “Now, well…”

She glanced over at Gu Qichen out of the corner of her eye.

To her surprise, this man looked somewhat adorable when upset.

Xia Yangyang felt that she had patted the tiger’s bottom enough, she should now revert to patting its fur.

She quickly put on a smiling face and blurted out, “Of course my husband’s the best now, he’s the greatest, I love my husband the most, husband, you’re unbearably handsome when you’re angry.”

This was the first time Xia Yangyang said something so cheesy.

Calling him ‘husband’ four times in a row gave her goosebumps.

But it seemed inexplicably pleasing to Gu Qichen.

The icy expression on his face finally softened a bit, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile, he calmly said: “Continue.”

Continue what?

This man was addicted to praise?

Xia Yangyang started to rack her brains: “My husband, Young Master Gu is handsome, elegant, intelligent, and dignified. His attractiveness draws the ire of gods and the grief of ghosts. There’s a poem, how does it go? ‘a pear tree in bloom outshines all the peach blossoms, a branch of red apricot blooms beyond the wall…'”

“Cough, cough…” Gu Qichen suddenly coughed twice.

Xia Yangyang asked: “What’s wrong?”

Gu Qichen replied: “That’s enough, stop now.”

She had already praised him for being ‘a branch of red apricot blooms beyond the wall’, what other praises could he possibly want to hear?

Xia Yangyang stuck out her tongue, and leaned towards Gu Qichen, kissing him on the cheek.

It seemed that she was truly starting to fall for this man….
