Chapter 182 Thrilling
Meeting the man's calm gaze, Gao Qier flinched for two seconds. It was such a waste of such beautiful facial features that she always had a deadpan look on her face.
It was okay for her to live under the same roof with him, after all, they were married, but she really couldn't accept suddenly sleeping in the same bed with him.
This also needs to be a gradual process.
She tried to explain it to him. "Although we are a legal couple, we have no feelings for each other, and we are not in a relationship that led to marriage. We are just strangers to each other. I can't sleep well every night sleeping next to an unfamiliar person."
"You said so, right?"
After he finished speaking, Qi Ye's expression was still as cold as ever, and he just stared at her quietly.
His eyes were too calm and indifferent. Gao Qier couldn't help but tremble when he stared at her like that. The old man's eyes were too intimidating.
After a few seconds, the man suddenly approached her, and his breath hit her face. Gao Qier's breathing tightened unconsciously, and she tried to calm herself down. If she backed down now, how would she live in the future?
"Gao Qier" Qi Ye called her name.
"Hmm?" Gao Qier responded subconsciously.
The man lowered his eyes to look at her, his dark eyes locked on hers, and the distance between them was so close that she could see herself in his eyes.
Caught off guard, Gao Qier's heart skipped a beat.
Qi Ye looked into her eyes, his voice calm and indifferent, "Since we are already married, we must live together. There is no reason for a couple to live apart. And you should know better than me that I didn't force you to get married. Even if you feel wronged, it's not my fault. In this marriage, you have to consider more than just yourself, whether it's the Gao family, the Qi family, or me..."
"We are married and we have no intention of getting divorced, but please be clear about your status. Not everyone can become Mrs. Qi."
Every word he spoke, his tone and his attitude were very cautious.
Gao Qier looked at him, and her curly eyelashes trembled slightly.
He looked down at her, not allowing her to back down. "I won't force you. I'll give you a month to adapt, whether it's the identity of 'Mrs. Qi' or the nature of the job."
"If you still find it difficult to accept, I don't mind helping you get used to the obligations between husband and wife in advance."
The two were so close that it looked like they were just whispering affectionately to each other.
After that night, Gao Qier realized how gentle and elegant this man appeared on the surface, but how vicious and arrogant he was in his bones.
How could Gao Qier not understand the implicit meaning of his words?
"Okay, since you said you want to give me time to adapt, then during this period you can sleep in the guest room next door." Gao Qier nodded and agreed.
Maybe he won't even have to wait for her to adapt, he might just get annoyed with her and want to divorce her.
Seeing this, Qi Ye raised his eyebrows and his thin lips slightly curved.
"Didn't you say you would help me, Mrs. Qi?"
When he mentioned the three words "Mrs. Qi", he emphasized
Gao Qier couldn't help but tremble, then she came to her senses and went to the cloakroom to get him a new tie.
But he was too tall, and it was a bit inconvenient for her to stand on tiptoe.
Qi Ye leaned down and the distance between the two of them was shortened.
His sudden approach startled her. Gao Qier stared at his handsome face in a daze. His warm breath sprayed on her face, causing Gao Qier's whole body to stiffen. She turned her face away to avoid his sight.
