Chapter 41: Contractual marriage (39)

The man's slender fingertips held her face, and those dark blue eyes were as beautiful as stars, finely shattered.
His eyes were gentle and serious.
Without the usual alienation and coldness, the beauty with black hair and blue eyes, with curved eyebrows and thin lips like flowers.
The corners of the eyes are warm and soft.
It's hard to refuse.
Jiang Ruan didn't speak, just lowered her eyes, her long hair fell from her ears, drawing a few naughty arcs, her red lips were pressed tightly, no happiness or anger could be seen.
She seemed to resist the question a little.
Seeing that Jiang Ruan didn't respond, Gu Xichao raised his heart slightly.
The uneasy feeling spread from the bottom of my heart, like a cold snake, rushing to every corner of the limbs.
"A Ruan, raise your head." Gu Xichao said softly.
Jiang Ruan Yiyan raised his head and looked at the man in front of her, frowning lightly.
She reached out and pushed him away.
Straightforward: "Gu Xichao, do you like me?"
Jiang Ruan's tone was sensible and nonchalant, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.
Gu Xichao's heart sank, but she nodded, "Yes."
"I like you, I like..."
The slightly dumb voice, a very light and light sentence, was as heavy as an oath.
Jiang Ruan glanced at him, then reached out and pushed him away, saying coldly.
"impossible."
The man was taken aback for a moment, a momentary sadness flashed across his fair and beautiful face, but he still asked, "Why?"
A dry sentence.
Gu Xichao had no experience with girls, and it was the first time that she said she liked it to a person. There was no more than the usual shopping malls, and only cautious temptations.
Jiang Ruan smiled, and the corners of his eyebrows were in disbelief, "Gu Xichao, we have been married for more than a year and haven't even said a few words. Now you say like me, do you think I will believe it?"
"Not to mention, I betrayed this marriage some time ago."
"In my impression, a person so proud of you would tolerate his wife putting a green hat on you?"
Jiang Ruan wasn't taunting him, she was just stating a fact.
She couldn't figure it out, so she could only choose not to believe it.
Hearing Jiang Ruan's words, Gu Xichao's face changed a little.
Snow-white fingertips pressed the woman's red lips, and Gu Xichao's expression was serious, "Don't say such things."
"No betrayal, no..."
He didn't know who he was talking to, repeating it word by word.
It seems that as long as you say it a few more times, this will become true.
No betrayal, no that farce.
Jiang Ruan almost laughed, "What are you talking about, Gu Xichao?"
"That's true, you saw it with your own eyes, didn't you, Mu Feng and I..."
Stopped her from continuing, the man’s beautiful eyebrows were drooping, and his long eyelashes cast shadows on the eyelids.
"I do not care."
"Even if it is true, I don't care."
"As long as we can do well in the future, that's enough, really..."
His tone was extremely serious, he didn't mean to be joking. In his beautiful dark blue eyes, there was a flash of sadness.
Jiang Ruan's eyes widened in disbelief, and she almost rubbed her eyes.
She may be dazzled.
Otherwise, how could you see the injury on Gu Xichao's face, although it was just a flash.
Gu Xichao shouldn't have been so gagged.
However, Mu Feng's existence is something he never wants to mention but cannot ignore.
It's like a thorn in the bottom of my heart.
The pain is always there.
