Introduced to Tian Dan, and naturally engaged in so pleasantries.
Afterward, Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize stood aside, whispering to each other.
A handso man and a beautiful woman, their every move pleasing to the eye, and even more so as they were a couple deeply in love. The inadvertent affection flowing between them caused a trace of sadness to pass through Tian Dan’s eyes, and her gaze unintentionally fell upon the flower basket sent by Fang Liang.
She sighed quietly.
Then, these emotions quickly dissipated.
She reverted to her amiable and approachable leader persona.
The opening ceremony of the Lifeng Security Company was a great success.
Gu Qiaoqiao and Boss Xu hadn’t expected it, initially thinking it would be just an ordinary opening ceremony, yet it unexpectedly beca nearly a major news story in Jinling City.
It seems that future business will hardly go bad.
Though Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t aim for the security company to earn a lot, there certainly was a sense of achievent.
At Jinling City’s best restaurant, she hosted today’s guests, and because she was happy, she drank a few glasses, making her small face resemble the pink and rosy hues of peach blossom petals.
Watching, Qin Yize’s gaze darkened, and then he discreetly scanned the room, only to find that it wasn’t just him staring at his young wife. Not far away, there were a few n whose attention subtly drifted in her direction. Despite their slight fear of him, there were plenty still sneaking glances at her. Qin Yize furrowed his eyebrows. He wasn’t keen on other people seeing this side of Gu Qiaoqiao, and regretted letting her drink. So he found an excuse and, sowhat displeased, Qin Yize drove Gu Qiaoqiao away.
At that mont, Gu Qiaoqiao actually wanted to stay a little longer, but seeing the chilling aura naturally emanating from Qin Yize beside her, she figured he was perhaps not in a good mood, even though she couldn’t fathom why. Seeing his slightly fatigued face, she felt tender-hearted, so she didn’t ask.
It was now the afternoon.
They got into the car, and Qin Yize buckled Gu Qiaoqiao’s seatbelt for her.
Gu Qiaoqiao took the opportunity to pinch Qin Yize’s handso face, then lazily leaned back against the seat, looking sideways at Qin Yize, she asked in a tender voice, "What brings you here?"
"How could I not attend my wife’s first company opening?" Qin Yize started the car, laughing as he replied.
Gu Qiaoqiao pouted, "Hmph, at least you’ve got so heart."
Qin Yize glanced at his young wife, feeling a warmth filling his heart, as if enveloped by cotton candy, making all the hardships worthwhile. But since he was driving, he naturally couldn’t afford distractions, so he accelerated toward the Gu family’s ho.
This type of Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t go out to play anymore; although she had quite a good alcohol tolerance, every ti she drank, red clouds would appear on her face.
She was already fair-skinned, so her pale complexion accented with rosy clouds made her stunningly beautiful.
Thus, Qin Yize seldom allowed her to drink in public, always feeling that this side of Gu Qiaoqiao should only be for him to see, and not for others.
Today was no exception.
Taking her ho was the best choice.
And Gu Qiaoqiao evidently had a bit of a buzz from the drinks, leaning back, her little head nodding slightly now and then, maybe due to the afternoon or the tipsiness from the alcohol, so while chatting intermittently along the way, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly fell silent.
Qin Yize took a glance, oh dear, she had fallen asleep.
And she seed to be sleeping soundly.
Qin Yize felt a bit disappointed but was full of tenderness as he cautiously carried Gu Qiaoqiao into the Gu family courtyard.
Into his room.
Although he hadn’t stayed there for a long ti, his aunt next door would co and tidy up from ti to ti, and the bed sheets had recently been changed.
Thus saving the hassle.
He placed Gu Qiaoqiao on the bed, and his aunt brought a plate of waterlon before leaving with a happy smile.
The young couple was affectionate, which made her happy too.
She hoped her daughters could be as fortunate in the future.
anwhile, Qin Yize washed up briefly, removed his suit, and sat beside Gu Qiaoqiao, realizing it had been nearly half a month since he last saw her.
During the deep and quiet nights, his mind was full of her image.
Truly pathetic.
But he felt it was different, having soone to think about, care about, and love, filling his heart; wasn’t that a form of happiness?
He gently fanned her with a palm fan to make her sleep more comfortably.
Looking down at the oblivious Gu Qiaoqiao, he muttered with a bitter smile, "You little enchantress, sleeping so sweetly."
Gu Qiaoqiao continued to sleep soundly, her cheeks rosy, prompting Qin Yize to give her a few strong kisses before feeling slightly better.
Then he put down the palm fan and laid down beside Gu Qiaoqiao.
Slowly closing his eyes.
He had made a rushed trip to arrive before Gu Qiaoqiao’s company opening, so the car ride was fast; even Luo Fan who was hitching a ride perford admirably; had it been Chu Chengfeng, he would have blared in protest.
Chu Chengfeng initially wanted to co, but was held up by sothing at ho, though judging by his deanour, he might show up in Jinling City by tomorrow.
A hint of a smile touched Qin Yize’s lips, lying next to his wife made him feel at ease.
He couldn’t understand why, but Gu Qiaoqiao, despite being a petite and delicate girl, shorter than him, younger than him, gave him this feeling.
With the sense of security only Qiaoqiao could provide, Qin Yize gradually drifted into sleep.
This nap lasted the whole afternoon.
Gu Qiaoqiao was gently awakened by Qin Yize’s soft calling, "Qiaoqiao, don’t sleep anymore, it’s ti for dinner..."
Gu Qiaoqiao murmured a few tis, still not opening her eyes.
"Qiaoqiao, get up, be obedient..." Qin Yize coaxed softly, half-hugging and half-supporting Gu Qiaoqiao to sit up.
Only then did Gu Qiaoqiao open her eyes.
Looking at the handso face before her, montarily unresponsive, she drowsily asked, "Ah Ze, am I dreaming? Why are you here?"
Qin Yize felt a softness in his heart, deciding to lean in for a kiss...
After a while, Qin Yize let go of Gu Qiaoqiao, tapped her little face, and endearingly asked, "Awake now?"
Gu Qiaoqiao’s cheeks flushed, her lips scarlet, and obediently nodded.
Could she not be awake?
If she remained asleep, Gu Qiaoqiao would indeed be a fool.
This charming and lovely Gu Qiaoqiao provoked Qin Yize to kiss her several more tis before letting go.
Gu Qiaoqiao glared at Qin Yize, stretched lazily, and sighed, "Oh dear, after sleeping all afternoon, I wonder if I’ll be able to sleep tonight?"
Qin Yize smiled slightly, his voice calm and mild like a warm breeze, "No problem, if you can’t sleep, I’ll keep you company chatting..."
Gu Qiaoqiao playfully punched Qin Yize, the couple bantered for a while before tidying up their clothes and heading out of Qin Yize’s room together.
By then, cheerful laughter filled the courtyard next door, quite lively, with Luo Fan’s voice occasionally audible.
