Chapter 314: Chapter 315 Let’s have a good talk! Chapter 314: Chapter 315 Let’s have a good talk! “Changing both name and identity, huh?”
Gu Qiangwei, “I merely changed my name, not my surname!”
“Still talking back?”
This time, it was a bit harder.
But afraid of hurting her, he still controlled the strength of his hand.
“It’s not like I did it on purpose!”
She retorted, truly unable to find any other reason.
Being spanked like a child by him, she felt very embarrassed, especially with Qin Si’s uncle right there. Did Qin Sijue ever consider her feelings at all?
“Oh? Not on purpose? So, are you saying that the scene you directed on the cruise ship was arranged by me?”
Gu Qiangwei paused, at a loss for words.
It was her act indeed, but not from her heart.
If she hadn’t done that, how else could she have left? To have an affair would have implicated others! To break up with him directly, he would certainly not agree! To hide from him, he would turn Jingcheng upside down searching for her!
Only by making him believe she was dead would he forget her existence completely.
“You—you let me get up first.”
“Do you remember the oath you swore by the sea?” He ignored her plea, keeping her pressed against his thigh.
Gu Qiangwei was startled, recalling that night by the sea.
If it weren’t for her fear of heights, how could she have been coerced into making that vow?
But was it really made under coercion?
She herself couldn’t tell.
“Qin Sijue, I’m feeling a little uncomfortable in my stomach, can you let me get up, so we can have a proper talk?”
Looking at her compliant hair and profile, Qin Sijue fell silent for two seconds and finally let go, allowing her to sit up.
Yet, Gu Qiangwei’s gaze fell on her flat belly.
Could there really be a small life here?
Or, just a stillbirth …
No matter what it was, she had to go to the hospital for a check-up. If it truly was a stillbirth, it would mean that she could never be with Qin Sijue in this lifetime.
“Now, answer the questions I asked just now, one by one. If there’s a single lie, I’ll stew Mengqi and then tie you to the bed night after night, the rest … I don’t need to spell it out, do I?”
He leaned close to her, his dangerous gaze shimmering with a hint of threat and ambiguity.
Confronting his dark pupils, Gu Qiangwei’s heart skipped.
This man, could he be frightening at any moment?
“What did you just ask? I forgot!” She averted her gaze, feigning ignorance.
Qin Sijue was very patient, “No matter, I can ask again.”
“Why fake your death? Why didn’t you come back? Why change your name and hide from me?”
He stared at the woman in front of him, not missing any subtle expression on her face.
Gu Qiangwei didn’t dodge but faced everything, meeting his eyes head-on.
What was bound to come would come, and what needed to be faced could never be avoided.
After a long while, she finally began, looking at him, “Qin Sijue.”
He stared at her, silent, waiting for her next words.
“I’ve heard that your great-grandfather died alone?”
His question caught Qin Sijue somewhat off guard.
He wanted to know why she faked her death and left, so why bring up his great-grandfather all of a sudden?
His great-grandfather had died many years ago.
Back then, Qin Sijue was only in middle school.
After pondering for a while, his gaze fell back on her face, “Yes, what about it?”
“Why, don’t you know?”
Qin Sijue looked down, thinking again for a while, “Because he had no children, what about it?”
