Facing Gu Qingcheng’s serious questions, Huo Sicheng’s thin lips tightened as he stared at her intently.
Gu Qingcheng’s grip on Huo Sicheng’s sleeve tightened even more.
“No silence allowed,” she said firmly.
She found herself starting to understand Huo Sicheng.
Whenever he didn’t want to speak, no matter when, he would remain silent.
She didn’t like this behavior of his.
Because she liked it when he talked more, especially when he talked to her.
Huo Sicheng’s thin lips slightly parted, and he uttered four words, “You’re mistaken.”
“I’m not!” Gu Qingcheng asserted, “I’m certain there are photos of me on your computer!”
Huo Sicheng still calmly replied with four words, “You’re mistaken.”
Gu Qingcheng’s anger surged, realizing that Huo Sicheng was blatantly refusing to answer her question.
She grabbed his collar, pulling him close until they were just inches apart, and angrily demanded, “Will you tell me!”
Huo Sicheng’s response was simple, “No.”
Gu Qingcheng was infuriated. She pushed Huo Sicheng away and stood up from her chair.
It had only been a few days since they had gotten together, and he was already acting insufferable.
It was her who had spoiled him!
Huo Sicheng’s lips twitched slightly, but in the end, he remained silent, watching Gu Qingcheng leave.
At this time, Chu Yu, who hadn’t been scolded by Huo in yesterday’s incident, already knew that he had been let off.
Worried about Huo’s health, he had been waiting outside the door early in the morning.
When he saw Gu Qingcheng, he intended to greet her, but seeing her furious expression, he didn’t dare to speak.
It was obvious that Gu Qingcheng and Huo Sicheng were having a conflict.
He cautiously entered the room and respectfully said, “Huo, go after Madam, comfort her. Her health isn’t good; it’s not good for her to get angry.”
Huo Sicheng gave Chu Yu a cold glance.
Chu Yu immediately lowered his head in fear.
Huo Sicheng’s knuckles holding the laptop turned white, and the white bandage on his arm oozed blood as he exerted force, revealing the turmoil in his emotions.
“Documents.”
Chu Yu promptly handed over the company documents he had been waiting for Huo to review.
Meanwhile, inside the villa, Gu Qingcheng was walking with a fuming mood, getting lost.
There were no male servants around, and she was feeling weak, having walked for so long that her whole body ached, and she was drenched in sweat.
“Qi Shaoze, come pick me up from the location I sent you.” She dialed Qi Shaoze’s number and hung up right after speaking.
Her physical condition wasn’t suitable for driving; Li Jing was busy dealing with the Peach Blossom Cup incident, leaving Qi Shaoze, the idle one.
Qi Shaoze arrived at the location Gu Qingcheng had sent him to at the fastest speed.
He saw Gu Qingcheng standing in the wind, dressed in a white gown. The mountain breeze lifted her silky black hair, creating a beautiful curve in the air.
With willow leaf-like eyebrows and seductive eyes, her exquisite face with slightly parted cherry lips emitted an elegant nobility. She was extremely beautiful, captivating his gaze.
“My queen.” He stepped out of the car with a sycophantic smile, “Please get in.” Gu Qingcheng rolled her eyes at Qi Shaoze, then sat in the passenger seat.
Qi Shaoze asked, “Where to?”
With a low mood, Gu Qingcheng turned her head to look out the window, saying, “Anywhere.”
As Qi Shaoze was about to start the car, he glanced at the camera at the gate and gave it a radiant smile.
“Did you have a fight with your precious husband?” He spoke up on the way, “I’ll accompany you. Don’t worry, I won’t be like your husband, Huo Sicheng. I’m very considerate.”
Hearing Huo Sicheng’s name, Gu Qingcheng’s anger rose. “Huo Sicheng is not my precious anything!”
“How could that be? You really like Huo Sicheng. You’re also his wife. He must treat you well,” Qi Shaoze asked incredulously, then pitifully said, “Unlike me, I always make you angry, and now you’re much colder towards me.”
Clearly, Gu Qingcheng didn’t notice the jealousy in Qi Shaoze’s eyes.
She retorted to his words, “Huo Sicheng is not my precious! Anyway, he keeps making you angry, and you said he’s my precious husband. It’s lucky I had my seatbelt on; otherwise, your sudden brake would’ve sent me flying.”
Qi Shaoze’s knuckles holding the steering wheel turned white. “I accidentally pressed the brake instead of the gas.” He turned apologetically to Gu Qingcheng, “It wasn’t intentional. Don’t be mad.”
“Can you even make such a basic mistake?” Gu Qingcheng was speechless. “Thank goodness there were no cars behind us; otherwise, your abrupt brake would’ve caused a rear-end collision, and the car behind would’ve been entirely at fault. You’re causing trouble. Don’t mess up.”
Qi Shaoze’s handsome face was somewhat strained. “Alright, you’re right in reprimanding me. ”
He continued driving, and his chest rose and fell heavily. It seemed like he was taking deep breaths to control his emotions.
After a while, he said, somewhat displeased, “When you call Huo Sicheng
‘baby,’ how does he react?”
“He said he’s not my son, and not to call him that way,” Gu Qingcheng replied honestly, not holding back, “He only lets me call him husband.”
Qi Shaoze’s expression froze, and his tone became rigid. “Did you?”
Gu Qingcheng looked out of the window, slowly calming her shaken nerves. She completely missed the jealousy in Qi Shaoze’s eyes.
She spoke casually, “Isn’t that a redundant question? Huo Sicheng and I are husband and wife. It’s natural for me to call him husband.’
Qi Shaoze’s lips tightened, and after a moment, he asked, “What if I become your son? Will you call me ‘baby’ then?”
