Chapter 422: Chapter 418: Marry and Bring Ho
Despite her reluctance to be led by the nose by Gu Xu, just one look into those focused eyes made her defenses crumble.
Her heart softened, and any further struggle was futile.
Huo Sining was very clear about the changes in her psyche; she did not feel aversion to Gu Xu’s kiss, instead, there was a sense of excitent and shyness within her.
The scent she breathed in was entirely that of Gu Xu, the unique masculine fragrance of a mature man, with a hint of tobacco—a faint scent that was impossible to ignore.
Because they were so close, she could even hear the sound of their hearts beating violently at the sa frequency.
In Gu Xu’s repeated teasing and restrained attempts, Huo Sining’s body beca tender, her mind shockingly buzzed as if the sky spun and the earth whirled or as though a sudden spring breeze had co, making hundreds of flowers bloom.
The heat of his breath swept across her cheek, like a spring breeze touching her ear, making Huo Sining feel as if her entire soul was light and floating amongst the clouds, tumbling and undulating…
Gu Xu hugged Huo Sining even tighter, as if he couldn’t wait to lt her into his bones right at that mont.
Though Huo Sining had the appearance of a young girl, her soul was anything but na??ve; sensing the change in Gu Xu’s actions, she recognized the danger.
Reason swiftly returned, and a look of resistance flashed in Huo Sining’s eyes as she struggled to free herself from Gu Xu’s constraint.
At that mont, Gu Xu’s deep eyes gathered countless undercurrents, seeming as if they would burst forth the instant they were given the chance.
Seeing the tension and resistance in Huo Sining’s eyes, a bitter smile erged in Gu Xu’s eyes, and he released Huo Sining’s lips that he had been fiercely kissing, but his arms wrapped around her even more tightly.
Just as Huo Sining was about to struggle, Gu Xu’s hoarse voice rang in her ear, carrying a deliberately suppressed emotion.
“Don’t move… let
hold you for a mont…”
Huo Sining froze, and Gu Xu’s arms pressed down on her as if only this could relieve the tension in his tightly wound body.
His chest heaved continuously, and it took quite a while before he finally let go of Huo Sining, both of them gasping for air.
The warmth of the other’s lips still lingered, but rationality had fully returned; Huo Sining’s cheeks were flushed, her long lashes quivered, and she struggled to get up, only to find her body too weak to move.
Seeing this, Gu Xu couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.
Huo Sining bit her lip hard, and although she tried to control her emotions, the faint touch that lingered on her tongue involuntarily made her body shiver, feeling simultaneously delighted and unwilling. If she had not reacted quickly just now, wouldn’t this guy have succeeded?
Sotis the body expresses the heart’s truth more clearly than words or actions. Gu Xu had been emotionally intense but restrained himself earlier. Now, seeing Huo Sining unable to even stand steadily, he couldn’t help laughing.
Upon hearing Gu Xu’s mocking laughter, a wave of embarrassnt and anger rose in Huo Sining’s heart, and she couldn’t help but lift her foot and kick towards Gu Xu.
Out of an instinct honed in the military, Gu Xu subconsciously wanted to dodge, but seeing Huo Sining’s embarrassed and angry gaze, he forcefully held back and allowed her light kick to land squarely on his body.
Huo Sining was annoyed. Unable to lash out at Gu Xu’s passive acceptance, she cursed inwardly, calling him a dark horse—always pretending to be a refined gentleman, yet underneath he was nothing but a hypocrite, all false pretenses!
“Are you not angry anymore?”
Seeing Huo Sining in such a flustered and embarrassed state was rare. Gu Xu couldn’t help but let the corners of his mouth curve up slightly, the tenderness and indulgence in his eyes unstoppable as he subconsciously drew Huo Sining gently into his arms, sighing,
“Wife, I’m sorry, I got too excited just now. Seeing you in this outfit, you look just like a bride, and I almost thought today wasn’t the family recognition banquet but our wedding banquet.”
Gu Xu’s voice was deep and resonant, making it exceptionally pleasing to Huo Sining’s ears, unrivaled by any other sound.
Huo Sining knew in her heart that she had fallen into the love trap Gu Xu had set for her, and there was no escape.
In her heart, she asked herself, do you even want to escape?
“Nonsense!” Knowing her own answer, Huo Sining couldn’t help but scoff at Gu Xu as he shalessly teased and acted spoiled in front of her.
Gu Xu chuckled, but his voice carried an indescribable gloom and impatience, “Wife, how much longer until we can get married? I really can’t wait any longer!”
Having made up her mind, Huo Sining teased with a playful smile in her eyes, “Didn’t you say you could wait?”
Gu Xu showed a face of grievance, “I can wait however long you ask, but I really hope I could marry you right now.”
Huo Sining gave Gu Xu a dismissive glance, “Don’t flatter yourself. I won’t be so easily won over. If you want to marry , first prepare a proposal ceremony that can touch my heart.”
At these words, Gu Xu’s head began to ache. He was clueless about courting girls. Trying to figure out a girl’s heart was even more troubleso than discussing business with the most difficult and picky partners.
But his wife had finally given him an opening, and if he didn’t seize this chance, the pursuit of his wife would probably be delayed indefinitely once again.
“Yes! Task guaranteed to be accomplished!” Gu Xu imdiately nodded and saluted like a soldier.
Huo Sining froze. Although it was a comical gesture, she found herself unable to laugh.
Gu Xu’s gaze was fixed on her, carrying a certain steadfastness as if conveying a determination that was unquestionable.
Huo Sining had only been joking, but the look in Gu Xu’s eyes made her heart tremble involuntarily.
“The ti for affection is over. It’s five-thirty now; we should be on our way. There’s only an hour left before the dinner starts, and you, the guest of honor, can’t be absent!”
It seed that every ti Gu Xu found an opportunity to show his resolution, soone would always intrude. Just as he was about to speak more emotionally, Huang Hanyun interrupted.
Huang Hanyun walked in from outside. Seeing Huo Sining’s slightly swollen lips, she gave Huo Sining a suggestive smile, her eyes filled with an indescribable teasing and understanding.
Huo Sining felt awkward, hurriedly turning around to apply so lip gloss to cover up the abnormality of her lips and touching up her makeup. After ensuring her attire was proper, she turned around nonchalantly, but took the chance when others weren’t looking to pinch Gu Xu’s waist a few tis to vent her anger.
Being pinched by his wife, Gu Xu felt no pain; instead, it tickled him inside.
He looked at Huang Hanyun and put on an innocent face as if nothing had happened at all.
