Ji Wei dialed several tis, but it was always the sa. In the end, she couldn’t resist the drowsiness and fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Ji Wei vaguely heard noises in the bedroom. She struggled to open her eyes and saw the bedside lamp was on. The man stood in the light, undoing the buttons of his shirt.
His tall figure cast a gentle shadow.
Half-asleep, Ji Wei murmured, "Weren’t your flights delayed? Why are you back?"
Gu Moqian bent down, leaned his handso face closer, and replied, "I was worried about you, so I switched flights and caught a transfer back from City B."
"Wouldn’t that take an extra hour..." She muttered groggily.
Gu Moqian raised a hand to gently pat her soft hair. "As long as I can co back to see you, what’s an extra hour?"
"Mm..."
Ji Wei let out a soft, sweet sound, clearly too sleepy to keep her eyes open.
Looking at her obedient and sweet deanor, Gu Moqian’s heart lted completely. He’d long forgotten he was ever upset with her.
After taking a shower, Gu Moqian got into bed and lay down beside her. He carefully pulled her into his arms, holding the woman sleeping soundly, and soon drifted off into his own dreams.
The next morning, Ji Wei woke up to see the man’s sleeping profile. She stared at him for a long mont, her mind a bit sluggish.
When did Gu Moqian co back? Why couldn’t she recall a thing?
His features were sharp and clean, his side profile srizing. Ji Wei found herself captivated and, unable to resist, leaned in to kiss him.
Her kiss was gentle, but it still managed to wake the sleeping beauty.
Gu Moqian’s eyes slowly opened, his long eyelashes slightly trembling. His voice was low and lazy with a touch of grogginess. "Can’t wait to wake with a kiss—what are you planning to do next?"
Ji Wei blushed and tried to deny it. "No, I wasn’t! You must’ve been dreaming. I didn’t kiss you."
Gu Moqian found her response amusing.
The little woman’s reddened cheeks had already betrayed her entirely. Did she really think she could fool him?
With one sweeping motion of his large hand, he pulled her into his arms. Then, he accurately captured her small hand and guided it toward a certain restless place.
Ji Wei imdiately tried to pull her hand back.
So dangerous, so early in the morning!
Perhaps guessing her thoughts, Gu Moqian leaned in with a low chuckle and whispered in her ear, "n are always energetic in the morning. This isn’t the first ti you’ve noticed, right?"
"I’ve never studied it, of course this is news to ," Ji Wei shot back in defense.
"Oh? Well, how about we take this chance to study it properly?" The man’s warm breath tickled her ear, the tingling feeling stirring Ji Wei’s sensitive nerves.
Her heartbeat inexplicably quickened, and she urgently tried to wriggle free. "No, no! I want to get up now."
But the man still wouldn’t release her hand. "You had dinner with another man yesterday—how do we settle that score?"
"It wasn’t another man; it was your two close friends," Ji Wei corrected him.
"Friends or not, it doesn’t matter. They’re both unmarried and still n. If you go out to eat with them alone, I’ll get jealous all the sa," Gu Moqian said with utmost seriousness.
Jealous... even about this?
Ji Wei was speechless.
"Mo Qian, it’s not what you’re thinking. We were just having a simple al and chatting. Besides, it was Mr. Ye who paid the bill. Speaking of that, I feel a little embarrassed—it was supposed to be my treat."
"How much? I’ll transfer the money to Old Ye later."
"..."
Ji Wei silently rolled her eyes. She had totally lost to her overly possessive husband.
She turned her gaze to his deep, compelling eyes and said, "Alright, I was wrong. From now on, I won’t have als alone with other n. Even if it’s for business, I’ll bring a friend along. Is that okay?"
"Mm, your attitude in admitting fault is decent enough." Gu Moqian curled his lips faintly. "But you still need to be punished for your mistake."
"What kind of punishnt?" Ji Wei’s eyebrows twitched nervously.
Gu Moqian guided her hand downward...
Ji Wei instantly froze in place.
