Chapter 59 Still jealous

As time passes, Zhao Xian tilts her head and looks at the man beside her, who is speaking incessantly and getting more and more excited. She can’t shake off the uncomfortable feeling in her heart. His stories are filled with the presence of another person, and perhaps he himself doesn’t realize that every time he mentions that person, his mood brightens considerably.

“Enough…” Zhao Xian suddenly speaks up, “Let’s sleep.” With that, she closes her eyes.

Gu Tingshu is taken aback. He can clearly sense that Zhao Xian is not happy, but he doesn’t know what he has done to upset her. Hearing her voice, he can only close his eyes and sleep, feeling wronged. However, he can’t rest easy without clearing things up, so he can’t help but open his eyes and look at her again.

“Are you angry?” he asks.

Zhao Xian is stunned. Yes, she is indeed angry, but why? Is she jealous? Damn it! She never thought she would be jealous one day. She thought that jealousy would never be a part of her life. But she would never admit it.

“No, you’re overthinking,” Zhao Xian replies calmly.

Gu Tingshu: “You’re lying to me. You are angry. Why are you angry?”

Zhao Xian is about to continue in silence when she hears sobbing in her ear.

What was this man imagining now?

Under the candlelight, the man’s bright eyes are fixed on her.

Zhao Xian unconsciously reaches out and strokes his face, leaning in without thinking…

Gu Tingshu feels a sudden warmth on his lips and widens his eyes in shock. “You…”

Realizing what she has done, Zhao Xian scorns herself and continues to lie down. “Sleep.” With a wave of her hand, a strong internal force accurately extinguishes the candlelight.

In an instant, the room plunges into darkness, concealing her embarrassed face in the night.

Damn… She couldn’t resist the temptation of the handsome man and reached out to the little beauty with her sharpened claws. Heavens, it feels like her conscience is being condemned. Is she really an old cow eating young grass?

In the darkness, the heartbeats of the two speed up. Gu Tingshu’s heart is racing too. He curiously looks at the person beside him. Although he can only see a blurry figure, he can’t help but reach out and touch her face. It is so hot. His wife has just kissed him, which means she isn’t angry.

That night passes nervously like this, and the two people chatting under the quilt all night feel that they are getting closer and closer.

The next day…

Zhao Xian wakes up from the pain. Turning her head, she sees the man combing his hair in front of the dressing table. She can’t help but squint her eyes in the morning sunlight. This man is really infuriatingly good-looking.

Gu Tingshu tilts his head and meets Zhao Xian’s gaze. She is startled and quickly averts her eyes, feeling a bit guilty.

“Wife, you’re awake. How’s your body feeling?” he asks.

“Well, much better.” Zhao Xian replies, sitting up lazily and leaning against the edge of the bed.

Gu Tingshu can’t help but be stunned when he sees her like this, his eyes wandering a little. She looks so charming at the moment, like a woman from a novel who seduces naive young men.

Zhao Xian naturally knows the appeal of her current appearance. Seeing him staring at her, she can’t help but curl her lips and softly speak.

“Do I look good?”

With a light and airy remark, Gu Tingshu can’t help but nod along with her words, “Very good…”

“Come here…” Zhao Xian stretches out her hand…

“Okay…” Gu Tingshu nods and stands up, walking to her side. But as he realizes what he is doing, his face stiffens. At this moment, he can’t help but think, who am I? Where am I? He actually subconsciously followed her words.
