Gu Mian heard what Tang Zui said and closed her eyes, feeling humiliated. In his eyes, she was nothing but an item with a price tag.
Tang Ming watched as Tang Zui left with Gu Mian in his arms. Rage was burning furiously in his chest. But at the same time, he tasted a hint of sweetness in his heart. He knew that Mian Mian still loved him. She said that she was not only because Tang Zui forced her to.
Five billion RMB was an astronomical number to him. But that was fine. He could go around borrowing and raising money!
As Tang Ming thought of that, he immediately got up and left.
Tang Zui carried Gu Mian back to the apartment. By then, she could sense that the pain in her waist, where Tang Zui’s foot landed on, had lessened slightly.
Earlier on, in that split second, she genuinely felt as if she had split into half from the waist when he kicked her.
Tang Zui dropped her on the couch and looked at her expressionlessly. Just as Gu Mian thought that he was going to release his anger on her by beating her up or scolding her, he suddenly said, “Didn’t you say you’re going to make me dumplings? Go prepare them now.”
1Gu Mian widened her eyes as she gawked at him. She thought that she had heard him wrong. When she finally recovered from the shock, she scrambled off the couch despite the pain in her waist and rushed into the kitchen.
Tang Zui was staring at her the entire time. He took off his tie and tossed it onto the couch angrily. Then he turned and headed to the bedroom to take a shower.
Gu Mian stood in front of the stove, stirring the dumplings in the pot slowly with a pair of chopsticks in her hand. She did not know what was on Tang Zui’s mind at all. But the only thing she knew for sure was that he would definitely not let her off the hook easily.
By the time the dumplings were ready, Tang Zui was out of the bedroom as well. He only had a towel around his waist. His physique was shockingly sturdy.
“The food is ready.” Gu Mian placed the bowls, spoons, and chopsticks on the table and stood still nervously.
Tang Zui did not look at her and sat down at the table right away. He was famished. Besides, during the past few days when he was away from home, he particularly missed the dumplings she made. He sat down and started eating.
Gu Mian sat down as well. She picked up her spoon and started eating the dumplings in the bowl. But she had no appetite.
It was because she did not know how he was going to punish her later.
In a moment like this, she wished that he had just beaten her up earlier on. Now the atmosphere between them made her even more uneasy.
After the meal, Tang Zui got up and found a cigarette. He lit it and started smoking. Once Gu Mian finished cleaning the dishes, she came to the living room and sat down. She asked, “How are you going to punish me?”
Tang Zui was smoking. He paused and looked at her. Gu Mian swallowed nervously. Her black eyes were filled with unease.
Tang Zui gazed at the look on her face and suddenly stood up. He carried her in his arms and strode towards the bedroom. Once he entered the room, he dropped her onto the bed and got on top of her right away.
Strangely enough, at that moment, Gu Mian heaved a sigh of relief.
After the passionate s*x, Gu Mian no longer had energy left in her. This man’s physical endurance and s*xual stamina were staggeringly good. He caressed her lower abdomen with his large hand. Gu Mian’s body went stiff. She wanted to move his hand away, but Tang Zui refused to withdraw his hand.
“Will we have a baby again?” Tang Zui spoke in a husky voice that sounded sexy and irresistible.
“Not anymore… don’t you worry!” Gu Mian replied flatly, thinking that he was worried that she would get pregnant again.
“What did you do?” Tang Zui immediately spun her around to face him.
Gu Mian did not reply.
She was genuinely fearful now. A while back, when her relationship with him was merely a contract marriage, she did not have to mind the consequences of her actions. But now that her family was already involved in their relationship, she had to be more cautious.
Caught by surprise, she could not register the meaning of his question. Therefore, she did not answer him right away. Instead, she decided to carefully analyze what he meant.
“No…”
“Why did you say we won’t be having babies again?” Tang Zui fixed his gaze on her and asked.
