Chapter 12: Don't Touch
Gu Wencheng had purchased an apartnt in Jinxiu Huayuan, a renowned high-end residential area in City B.
Ping Yang dropped ng Nianyao off at the apartnt's entrance. After handing over her access card and room keys, she presented her with a bank card. "Lady Boss, this is what the boss asked to give you. In the future, you can directly transfer money to this card. Also, the apartnt was tidied up at the last minute. If anything is missing, feel free to purchase it yourself or give a call."
"Alright, thank you for your help." ng Nianyao nodded.
"It's my duty," Ping Yang responded, shaking her head. "If there's nothing else, I'll head back to the company."
"Alright."
Once Ping Yang left, ng Nianyao, feeling exhausted, took out her keys to open the door. The apartnt was lavishly decorated, but ng Nianyao was in no mood to appreciate it. She fetched a pair of newly bought slippers from the shoe cabinet, labels still attached. After changing her shoes, ng Nianyao located the master bedroom and guest bedroom, took a shower, and proceeded to the guest room to sleep.
When she woke up, it was already the next afternoon. There was a missed call from the hospital. ng Nianyao called the doctor who had conducted a sexual assault examination on her and learned that her report was ready.
Although ng Nianyao didn't regret marrying Gu Wencheng, she still harbored a subconscious aversion to him. After collecting her test report from the hospital, the sky suddenly darkened, and heavy rain poured down. ng Nianyao hadn't brought an umbrella, so she had to take a taxi to her neighborhood and run through the downpour.
The autumn rain was chilly. The mont ng Nianyao entered her ho, she rushed to the bathroom for a shower. The sound of running water masked the sound of Gu Wencheng opening the door.
As Gu Wencheng changed his shoes at the entrance, he noticed a docunt bag there. The hospital's na on the bag caught his attention, prompting him to instinctively open it and examine its contents.
At that very mont, ng Nianyao erged from the bathroom, wrapped in a towel. Upon spotting the item in Gu Wencheng's hand, she swiftly walked over and snatched it from him, asking coldly, "What right do you have to touch my things?"
The docunts had beco damp on the way back, but thanks to ng Nianyao holding them close to protect them, they remained only slightly wet.
Gu Wencheng's gaze shifted from the report to ng Nianyao's face and then downward to her exposed collarbone. He spoke slowly, "Mrs. Gu, are you still planning to sue ?"
ng Nianyao did not answer. Instead, she placed the report in a file folder. Throughout the entire exchange, she ignored Gu Wencheng except for her initial question.
Gu Wencheng smiled and suddenly put his arm around ng Nianyao's waist, pulling her closer. "Mrs. Gu, we are already husband and wife. If you still can't forget the past, what will beco of our married life?"
ng Nianyao's expression turned cold, and she struggled. "Let go of !"
But Gu Wencheng did not release her and looked at her with intensity. A mory flashed through ng Nianyao's mind. He had gazed at her just like this in the dimly lit hotel.
"Gu Wencheng, let go of ! Let go!" ng Nianyao beca agitated suddenly. Gu Wencheng saw that she was not in a good state, but before he could push her away, ng Nianyao slapped him.
A resounding smack echoed, and ti seed to freeze.
Gu Wencheng's expression turned icy, and his gaze on ng Nianyao grew even colder. A shiver ran down her spine at his intense stare, but she clenched her fists, determined to remain composed. "Gu Wencheng, I told you not to touch ."
Gu Wencheng touched his face and chuckled. "Not touching you? You're my lawful wife. Why can't I touch you?"
ng Nianyao trembled. "Gu Wencheng, our marriage is a contract. You help seek revenge, and I will be your wife in na only. That does not include sleeping with you."
Hearing this, Gu Wencheng stepped closer to ng Nianyao. "Who told you it was a contract? I'll seek revenge on your ex-husband's family as a betrothal gift to you. The wife I want is not a decoration that can't be touched. Since we are married, we cannot avoid our responsibilities. Since we haven't known each other for long, I'll give you ti to adjust. I won't hold this slap against you, but Mrs. Gu, my patience is limited."
"Divorce!" ng Nianyao blurted out. "I don't want you to avenge . Let's get a divorce."
"Divorce?" Gu Wencheng replied coldly. "Do you think marriage is a ga, ng Nianyao? I don't want to hear such words a second ti." With that, he turned around and left.
