Chapter 1078: Chapter 52: Who Do You Think Is More Handsome, Lu Zhiquan or Me?
Gu Yan finally hummed slowly, "Mr. Gu hasn’t slept for two days, I’m tired!"
Two days without sleep?
Nie Xiaoxing pursed her lips tightly, staring at Gu Yan, with a trace of heartache hidden deep in her eyes.
Gu Yan saw that she was only looking at him and wasn’t speaking, feeling uncomfortable inside.
He bit his teeth hard and turned his head away, crossing his arms and closing his eyes.
Nie Xiaoxing stared at Gu Yan for a while, then carefully walked forward, picked up the empty bowl from the coffee table, and went to wash it in the kitchen.
Then she went to the bedroom, picked up the blanket from the bed, and walked to the sofa to cover Gu Yan with it.
She sat down on the sofa beside him, looking at him quietly.
Gu Yan has always been picky about where he sleeps, finding it hard to sleep in uncomfortable places.
And although he really hadn’t closed his eyes for two days, now with the person he worried about sitting not far from him, there’s no way he could sleep!
He persisted in lying on the sofa for about ten minutes.
Mr. Gu couldn’t hold onto his dignity anymore, he bounced up from the sofa, scratched his hair irritably, and glared at Nie Xiaoxing, gritting his teeth, saying, "I can’t sleep here!"
Nie Xiaoxing was startled and bewildered, "Then, what should you do?"
Gu Yan’s brows furrowed, staring fiercely at Nie Xiaoxing, "How should I know? You tell me!"
"Me?"
Nie Xiaoxing’s eyes rolled slightly, speaking in a negotiating tone, "Why don’t you go out and find a hotel to sleep in."
Gu Yan squinted, "I’ll go if you come with me!"
"..."
Nie Xiaoxing frowned, looking helpless and innocent at Gu Yan.
Gu Yan got angry seeing her like this, punched the sofa twice with his fists, and growled, "I’ll sleep in your room!"
Nie Xiaoxing looked at him.
Gu Yan tightened his fists, suddenly stood up, hugged the blanket, and walked toward Nie Xiaoxing’s bedroom.
Nie Xiaoxing was slightly shocked, hurriedly stood up to follow, and said anxiously behind him, "Aren’t you going back to Z City?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yan turned his head to glare fiercely at Nie Xiaoxing, then turned away, pulling a long face as he continued toward the bedroom.
Nie Xiaoxing’s face twitched a few times, following closely behind him, "Gu Yan, go back..."
"Didn’t you hear Mr. Gu said he was tired?" Gu Yan suddenly turned around.
Nie Xiaoxing was off guard, crashing directly into Gu Yan’s arms.
Her face stiffened for half a second, then instantly burned and she quickly tried to retreat.
But Gu Yan immediately embraced her waist, preventing her from moving back.
Nie Xiaoxing’s face flushed, raising her long eyelashes to look at Gu Yan with some grievance.
Gu Yan stared at her blushing face.
Did this woman secretly gain weight again? Why does her face seem to have more collagen on it!
"Mr. Gu said he wants to sleep, why are you following him around? What do you want to do with Mr. Gu?" Gu Yan squinted and asked.
"..." Speechless!
Nie Xiaoxing glared lightly at Gu Yan, frowned, and said, "If you want to sleep, go out and book a room. Sleep well and go back to Z City soon!"
"Mr. Gu is a bachelor, what’s the point of booking a room alone? If a woman accompanies me, then I might consider it!" Gu Yan said with a deliberately frivolous tone.
Nie Xiaoxing’s face lowered a bit, eyelashes drooping, struggling hard.
Gu Yan simply threw the blanket aside, clasped Nie Xiaoxing tightly with both hands, his long legs clamped around Nie Xiaoxing from both sides, panting heavily as he stared at her already rosy and tender face due to struggle, speaking in a hoarse voice, "If you go book a room with Mr. Gu, then Mr. Gu will go!"
Nie Xiaoxing glanced at him, "What are you thinking? Gu Yan, stop causing trouble, hurry back to Z City! What are you staying here for?"
Gu Yan’s eyes darkened as he stared at Nie Xiaoxing, suddenly tightening his arms around her, pulling her into his embrace, and gritting his teeth, "Don’t you know why I’m staying here? Nie Xiaoxing, what more do you want Mr. Gu to do in front of you, huh?"
Nie Xiaoxing’s eyes turned hot, her head lowered, "I said once things here are sorted out, I’ll go back and find you right away. Gu Yan, I’m begging you, please go back, alright?"
"Raise your head." Gu Yan stared at her intensely.
Nie Xiaoxing was about to cry, feeling particularly upset, "Really, go back, you, mmm..."
Her chin was suddenly grasped and lifted.
Her slightly open lips were sealed by him instantly.
His urgent, fiery lips and tongue plunged into Nie Xiaoxing’s mouth without any gentleness, entangling her.
Nie Xiaoxing’s tongue root swelled with pain, and her eyes were covered with layer upon layer of mist.
Gu Yan madly sucked on her lips and tongue, his hard lower abdomen forcefully pressing and bumping against her.
Nie Xiaoxing’s waist trembled lightly, her ten slender fingers unconsciously tightened around the fabric at his waist.
"Nie Xiaoxing, I’ve lost to you!"
"You won’t come back with me, so I can only stay and be with you."
"Whatever you want to do, I’ll be right by your side!"
The crystal at the corner of Nie Xiaoxing’s eye instantly slid down, "It’s, it’s too dangerous, mm..."
Gu Yan embraced her tightly, taking a few steps towards the bedroom.
Bang—
The door was slammed shut with great force.
Nie Xiaoxing was completely pressed down onto the soft and plush bed.
Gu Yan exerted all his strength, pressing into her as if he wanted to squeeze his whole self into her body.
Nie Xiaoxing panted urgently, her breath faltering.
Under such pressure, she had to grip Gu Yan’s clothes even harder, raising her neck to catch her breath.
"Nie Xiaoxing, my life is much more precious than yours! I’m a tall, rich, and handsome man. And you? Among the white, rich, and beautiful trinity, you barely count as white. With me living and dying alongside you, even if you die, you’d probably laugh yourself back to life!"
Gu Yan’s eager hands reached into Nie Xiaoxing’s clothes, pinching her skin forcefully as if in revenge.
Her body shook violently, it hurt so much, and she instinctively reached to pull at his hand, trembling as she spoke, "Gu Yan, it hurts..."
"Did you think about how I would hurt when you left without a word and ran off with another man? Your pain now is nothing compared to the pain I’ve borne these past two days!"
Gu Yan showed his teeth, biting at Nie Xiaoxing’s neck and face harshly.
"You, you’re talking nonsense! When did I run off with another man? I came over with Lu Zhiquan for, for an important matter... you know it fully well and still say such things deliberately..."
Nie Xiaoxing said intermittently.
"Then tell me, do you like Lu Zhiquan? Who do you like more, me or Lu Zhiquan?"
Gu Yan suddenly grasped Nie Xiaoxing’s wrists, raising and pressing them against the pillow above her head, stopping all his movements, lying over her, his starry eyes fiery red as he stared at her, voice gruff and low.
Nie Xiaoxing’s eyes flickered slightly, looking at the veins popping on Gu Yan’s forehead, a sigh quietly crossing her heart.
"Gu Yan, Lu Zhiquan is just a friend, I don’t like him, never have."
Gu Yan pursed his lips, looking at Nie Xiaoxing with doubt.
Nie Xiaoxing breathed lightly, "The reason I agreed to go back to K City with him is truly just to capture Yan Shu in one fell swoop, bring him to justice, and remove this tumor, also to truly free myself from his pursuit and gain freedom."
Gu Yan stared straight into Nie Xiaoxing’s eyes, as if trying to assess if she spoke the truth.
Nie Xiaoxing’s eyes were candid, letting him watch.
After all, she was speaking only the truth.
Though Nie Xiaoxing had already shown great sincerity, Gu Yan was still somewhat incredulous, frowning, "Are you speaking the truth?"
Nie Xiaoxing felt frustrated, nodding, "Mmhmm."
Gu Yan looked at Nie Xiaoxing, unable to understand, asking again, "Who do you think is more handsome, Lu Zhiquan or me?"
Nie Xiaoxing: O__O
Gu Yan shamelessly pressed, forcefully holding Nie Xiaoxing’s wrists down, "Tell me, who is more handsome, me or him?"
"... Gu Yan, don’t you think you’re being a bit childish?"
Nie Xiaoxing said softly.
"Who says it’s childish? Others may think it and keep it bottled up inside without asking. I just said it out loud."
Gu Yan boasted shamelessly.
"..." Nie Xiaoxing felt a bit mentally exhausted, "Do you want to hear the truth?"
Gu Yan glared at Nie Xiaoxing as if poised for battle, his voice rough, "Yeah!"
But clearly, he was warning her: Just try saying Lu Zhiquan is more handsome!
Nie Xiaoxing’s previously sentimental mood suddenly turned into one caught between laughter and tears, "You’re handsome, Mr. Gu, you’re the most handsome!"
Gu Yan listened but wasn’t happy at all.
Because he felt, she seemed like she was forced into saying it!
Actually, she might think Lu Zhiquan is more handsome in her heart!
Gu Yan felt uneasy, suddenly loosening Nie Xiaoxing’s hands, turning from atop her to beside her, frowning as he closed his eyes, pouting like a sulky child, pretending to be dead.
Nie Xiaoxing sat up, gazing softly at Gu Yan, her lips gently pulling into a smile. After a while, she spoke softly, "I think you’re not only more handsome than Lu Zhiquan, you’re also more handsome than your Boss Rong, Brother Rong, Xiao Xiaosan, and Huo Shaojun."
As soon as Nie Xiaoxing finished speaking, Gu Yan suddenly opened his eyes, staring at Nie Xiaoxing, unable to hide the gleam of amusement in his eyes, his mouth curling up irresistibly, "Talking nonsense that’s actually the truth!"
Nie Xiaoxing pursed her lips, seeing Gu Yan’s smug expression, holding back laughter until tears almost formed in her eyes.
