Chapter 353: Chapter 354 I… Really Want to Fall in Love with You Chapter 353: Chapter 354 I… Really Want to Fall in Love with You Not until she recognized that face and confirmed it was Qin Sijue did she suddenly feel a sense of relief and let out a sigh.
However, the momentary panic and fear that had flashed across her face had still been captured by Qin Sijue, causing a sudden tightness in his chest.
“Scared?” His voice was low and sensual, a barely noticeable trace of concern and care swept across his deep eyes.
Looking at the man who had unexpectedly returned, Gu Qiangwei felt an immense relief wash over her.
He stepped forward, instinctively reaching out to draw her into his embrace and walked over to the sofa in the master bedroom.
He then sat down and his hot gaze swept over her from head to toe, reassuring himself that she was unharmed and only then did his heart settle.
Gu Qiangwei looked up and saw his face, carved like fine jade, and felt a flicker of unease in her heart.
Qin Guozhong was the person he was closest to. Was he really willing to turn against his own grandfather for her sake?
He looked down, his gaze intense as he watched her.
His completely fearless and calm demeanor gave the impression that nothing had happened just a moment ago.
“All you need to remember is that you are my wife, and this, your home. That’s enough. Leave the rest to me to handle.”
Staring at her, the seriousness in the depths of his eyes was incredibly intense. No one could shake the decision in his heart.
“In this life, I have chosen you, whether in life or death.”
Meeting his burning gaze, Gu Qiangwei felt her heart deeply stirred.
Her mother went missing when she was very young, and after living for twenty-two years, she found out that even her father was not her biological one. She thought that would be all her life amounted to, until she met Qin Sijue and everything changed dramatically.
With him, her life was no longer dull and insipid. Every minute, every second was grand and splendid because of his presence.
What did it matter if she was not accepted by Qin Guozhong? She had fallen in love with this man, and as he said, it’s either love or risking it all!
But she knew clearly that being with him would mean facing many difficulties and breaking through all barriers.
Looking into her night-dark eyes, bright and clear, he felt very pleased. “What, am I moving you?”
His tone was casual and flippant, but Gu Qiangwei could see the seriousness in the depths of his eyes.
“Qin Sijue, I… I think I’ve fallen for you.”
Those words made Qin Sijue’s heart skip a beat, a sensation he was tasting for the first time in his twenty-six years.
Staring at her as if he wanted to imprint her image into his eyes, lodge her in his heart, hide her away, not allowing any man to touch or covet her.
The atmosphere was so quiet that they could hear each other’s heartbeats until his chiseled face slowly closed in and kissed her warm, soft red lips…
A kiss, passionate and poignant.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t have her yet, Qin Sijue certainly wouldn’t have let her go so quickly.
As night fell, a gust of autumn wind blew the window curtains, making them flutter lightly in the breeze.
“Let’s go down to eat.”
After the kiss ended, his voice was somewhat low and hoarse.
Gu Qiangwei stood up, thinking he would go downstairs with her, but as she took a step, she saw that he hadn’t stood up.
She looked at him bewilderingly. “Aren’t you coming down?”
“I’ll be down in a bit.”
Although she didn’t understand why, Gu Qiangwei didn’t ask further, assuming he had matters to attend to and went downstairs first.
After waiting in the dining room for about twenty minutes, Qin Sijue came downstairs.
However, the him that arrived in the dining room seemed to have taken a shower, having changed from the formal suit into a set of casual home clothes, still handsome and captivating.
