Chapter 354: Chapter 355: Aren’t I Here?
“Have you taken a shower?”
Gu Qiangwei was somewhat startled and asked him casually.
Qin Sijue pulled out the main dining chair and sat down, his tone and gaze incredibly suggestive as he deliberately leaned closer to her, “What do you think? What would happen if I hadn’t showered?”
Gu Qiangwei was stunned for a moment and did not react immediately.
It wasn’t until she regained her composure that a flush of red swept across her cheeks.
However, she was somewhat puzzled. Was just a kiss enough to make him lose his senses…? Indeed, men are creatures who think with their lower halves!
Actually, Qin Sijue’s self-control was still very strong, but he really hadn’t touched her for too long, which led to an uncontrollable reaction after just a kiss. Unfortunately, the doctor had advised that after her last miscarriage, her body was weak and her uterus had also been traumatized. To avoid unnecessary complications, it was best not to touch her for three months.
For Qin Sijue, this was agony!
Yet, he had no choice but to abide by this.
Ignoring his suggestiveness, Gu Qiangwei picked up her bowl and silently started eating.
After a few bites of rice, as if something suddenly occurred to her, she looked up at the man sitting at the head of the table.
He looked up, slowly chewing the food in his mouth.
“I… want to learn some self-defense techniques, could you teach me?”
Qin Sijue was somewhat taken aback by her sudden change of topic.
Was it because of today’s events that she was worried about being helpless if she encountered the same situation again and thus wanted to learn some means to protect herself?
“Isn’t that why I’m here?” He was her sky and earth.
Yet, Gu Qiangwei worried that there might come a day when he wouldn’t be by her side.
Now, she was surrounded by enemies on all sides. At any moment, she could be taken away by people from Qin Guozhong or encounter some adversaries, like Nangong Feifei or Gu Shijie.
She didn’t want to appear weak and incapable, always living under his protective wings.
Looking at him, her eyes were incredibly serious and resolute, “But what if one day you’re not here? I can’t just stay at home all the time, and even if I do go out, you arrange for people to follow and protect me, but I still have to use the restroom, don’t I?”
Thinking about Qin Guozhong’s determination to take her away, any slight chance he got, he would definitely take her away, just like last time, making sure Qin Sijue couldn’t find her.
Oh, no, this time, he might even make her disappear from this world.
Frowning, Qin Sijue also felt her analysis made a lot of sense.
No matter how meticulously he planned, life was full of unexpected accidents. It might be better to teach her a few tricks so that if she were ever kidnapped, she would at least have a chance to escape.
And it seemed Gu Qiangwei was also interested.
Looking at him excitedly, she asked, “So, what are you going to teach me?”
“Eat your meal first!”
He casually tossed a chicken leg into her bowl.
Gu Qiangwei didn’t continue to ask and pouted, quietly eating the food in her bowl.
In the following days, Qin Sijue seemed very busy, almost always returning to Jueyuan late at night.
All this was just to free up the weekend to take her to Dragon Phoenix Mansion for shooting practice.
Early in the morning, Gu Qiangwei woke up feeling relaxed, lazily turning over as usual.
But today, as she turned over, her arm pressed down on a hand.
She was stunned, her eyes barely open yet.
