"Um, I want to ask you, why did you marry me in the first place?"
Gu Yuheng's breath hitched, and his pen slipped, not only signing the wrong name but also knocking over several documents in his nervousness.
"Why...why did you suddenly want to ask this question?"
If Lin Chuxia listened carefully, she could hear that Gu Yuheng's voice sounded somewhat flustered.
"It just suddenly occurred to me, and then I felt it was a bit strange, so I wanted to ask you about it."
Where Lin Chuxia couldn't see, Gu Yuheng let out a soft sigh of relief and replied to her while leaning over to pick up the documents: "Hmm, what do you think is strange?"
"The very fact that you chose to marry me is strange!"
Gu Yuheng's heart, which had just settled down, immediately jumped again because of her words: "Lin Qingze told you about this?"
His voice, though feigned calm and composure, actually carried a hint of barely perceptible panic.
Lin Chuxia nodded: "That's right! My brother said that with your qualities, there's no way you could fall in love with me. The only reason he married me is because of my parents' dying wish."
"Is this how Lin Qingze explained it to you?" Gu Yuheng's voice had a hint of gritted teeth.
Lin Chuxia nodded again: "Yes! That's what my brother said. He said that although you are about the same age as him, you are my dad's friend, so if we're talking about seniority, we should call you uncle."
Gu Yuheng: ...Get lost! He's only six years older than her, what kind of uncle is he!
Lin Chuxia continued, "As my dad's good brother, how could you possibly fall for his daughter? If that's the case, then you're too much of a beast! After all, my dad treats you like a brother, but you just want to sleep with his precious daughter."
Gu Yuheng felt a pang of pain in his heart.
He knew it; that fox Lin Qingze would definitely do something wicked behind his back!
He shouldn't have let his guard down against him in the first place!
Lin Chuxia continued, "Gu Yuheng, you should have no shortage of women, right?"
Even if the old lady pressures him to get married, he can easily find a girl who is better than her.
Even if he was entrusted by her parents, he didn't need to jeopardize his lifelong happiness for it!
Why would he choose her out of the blue?
Lin Chuxia couldn't understand it.
"Hey, you wouldn't happen to have fallen for me, would you?" Lin Chuxia said half-jokingly.
Gu Yuheng has now figured everything out: Lin Chuxia has no idea what happened back then, but that fox Lin Qingze has tricked him badly.
Gu Yuheng breathed a sigh of relief, but secretly made a mental note of Lin Qingze's actions.
Since his worst fears hadn't come true, Gu Yuheng felt much more relaxed and began to speak more freely.
"Why are you asking the same question as Gu Qi?" Gu Yuheng said this with a look on his face that said, "Why are you as stupid as Gu Qi?"
Fortunately, Lin Chuxia wasn't looking at him right now, otherwise it would definitely have been another "world war".
"Hey? Did Gu Qi ask you a similar question? And how did you answer him?"
Gu Yuheng put the fallen document back in its place, lowered his eyes, and said seriously, "I fell in love with you for no reason."
The sudden confession made Lin Chuxia's heart skip a beat.
The atmosphere is just right now.
However, Gu Yuheng, as if to make matters worse, added another sentence:
