Gu Xichen noticed her movement and pulled her into his arms.

I used both thumbs to press her temples.

"Honey, are you feeling unwell? Will this make you feel better?"

Jiang Jinxiu felt the warmth of his hand and comfortably squinted her eyes.

She responded to Gu Xichen with a soft "hmm".

"Wife, last night..."

Before Gu Xichen could finish speaking, Jiang Jinxiu covered his mouth.

"You're not allowed to say it, you're not allowed to say it."

Jiang Jinxiu shouted angrily.

Her face flushed again. She was sure he was doing it on purpose, deliberately reminding her of what happened last night. All she wanted to do now was disappear.

I thought that way and I did it.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Xichen's hand froze in mid-air.

He looked at his empty arms and couldn't help but laugh when he thought of his wife's expression just now. Was his wife shy?

Jiang Jinxiu didn't care what Gu Xichen was thinking. The soreness all over her body made her feel very uncomfortable, and she was also dizzy.

She drank some spring water, which calmed her down a bit, and then went straight to soak in the bathtub.

Just thinking about what happened last night made her face burn.

After washing up in the space and calming herself down, she left the space again.

However, she forgot about the time difference and forgot to change her position. As soon as she came out, she lay directly in Gu Xichen's arms.

When Gu Xichen saw his wife reappear in his arms, he immediately pulled her back into his embrace and held her tightly.

"Honey, did you forget to bring me with you when you went in?"

She said it in a pitiful tone, with a hint of coquetry.

Jiang Jinxiu turned to face him, cupped his face in her hands, kissed the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile in her eyes, "Husband, I'll definitely bring you next time."

Feeling the stubble on his chin, she moved her hand down and stroked his slightly prickly chin.

Gu Xichen's anger was reignited early this morning.

He held her slender waist tightly with both hands, pressed a kiss to her forehead, and said in a hoarse voice, "Is my beard prickly to your hands?"

Jiang Jinxiu stepped back slightly and held her hand up in front of his eyes: "Look, see for yourself."

Gu Xichen noticed that the woman's fair fingers were now slightly red.

His wife's hands are so delicate.

"It's a bit red, honey, don't touch it anymore, I'll shave it later."

Jiang Jinxiu ignored him and, as if she had found a fun toy, touched his beard again.

His fingers kept rubbing back and forth.

However, her fingertips felt a burning sensation as the man gently bit her finger...

"You...you let go, it's time to get up..."

Jiang Jinxiu's face started burning again.

Gu Xichen obediently released her, but quickly grabbed her again, stealing her breath...

...

Wu Wen arrived at the Gu family's house with a cartload of red bricks, but after looking around, he couldn't find Gu Xichen.

He wanted to knock on the door and look for someone.

But Mo Caixia, the daughter of the brick factory manager who came with him, kept pestering him to come and have some fun with him.

But in the blink of an eye, she disappeared.

He shouldn't have agreed to bring her. If something happens, how will he explain it to her family?

What if such a beautiful girl like her encounters bad people?

Wu Wen didn't have time to look for Gu Xichen; he needed to find Mo Caixia first.

At this moment, Mo Caixia was visiting Gujia Village for the first time and was curious about everything.

She wandered aimlessly through the village.

The villagers who went to work couldn't help but take a second look at her.

After all, Gujia Village is only so big, and everyone knows each other. When a new face suddenly appears, especially such a clean and pretty girl, people can't help but wonder whose relative she is.

However, Mo Caixia was also very bold. She didn't feel shy when others looked at her, and even greeted the villagers in a very generous manner.

This made everyone feel good about him.

Mo Caixia dressed up specially for today to see Gu Xichen.

She wore a white floral dress made of polyester, and her jet-black hair was styled into two trendy braids that were placed on either side of her shoulders.

I drew my eyebrows and applied lipstick.

She looked very energetic and refined.

Add to that her generous and confident smile, like a mouth that speaks sweet words.

It made the hardworking aunties and grandmas laugh heartily.

The young men working hard in the fields couldn't help but look in her direction again and again.

She wanted to find out about Gu Xichen from the villagers, but for some reason...

No one seems willing to talk about it.

They just said that their family was nice.

Unable to glean any further information, she didn't linger and continued wandering around aimlessly.

What she didn't know was that people no longer gossiped about the Gu family so casually.

The main reason is that Yang Dongmei, the matriarch of the Gu family, is no ordinary tiger.

The news of what happened a few days ago had already spread throughout the entire village.

When Mo Caixia walked to the riverbank, she saw fish swimming in the grass by the river.

She thought it was so much fun, and a thought suddenly occurred to her.

He squatted down on the bank, trying to catch the fish that was stranded in the weeds.

But the grass by the water was too slippery, and she accidentally fell into the river.

"Help! Help!"

She tried to grab onto the weeds on the bank, hoping to use them to climb up, but she couldn't manage it.

It was also carried forward a bit by the current.

She couldn't swim, and fear gripped her entire body. She quickly grabbed onto the weeds on the bank to steady herself.

At that moment, she was filled with regret.
