Chapter 23: Might as Well Confirm the Charges

“This isn’t his shirt,” Xia Yangyang said calmly. “He never wears blue dress shirts.”

Gu Qichen’s face darkened. “So you still remember his preferences?”

Xia Yangyang was speechless. This man was too good at splitting hairs.

“I’m simply saying it’s not his shirt. If you don’t mind, wear it.”

“I mind!”

Xia Yangyang was startled. “Then leave. I don’t have any spare clothes.”

“Xia Yangyang, the more you try to chase me away, the less likely I am to leave.”

Xia Yangyang was exhausted. That wasn’t what she meant at all.

“Fine, do whatever you want. I’m going to shower.”

Xia Yangyang grabbed some clothes and went to the bathroom. After entering, she hesitated before locking the door.

When she emerged, Gu Qichen sat on the single-seater couch, arms crossed, radiating a standoffish air. His face was colder than before. Xia Yangyang had no idea what had happened.

Gu Qichen’s cold voice cut through the room. “Xia Yangyang, do you think I’m a beast?”

Xia Yangyang was taken aback. “I don’t understand.”

“Why did you lock the door?”

Xia Yangyang, pausing mid-hair drying, casually asked, “You knew I was showering. Why did you try to open the door? I locked it to keep out undesirables, not gentlemen.”

“Are you calling me undesirable?”

“I didn’t say that, you did.”

Enraged, Gu Qichen stood and strode toward Xia Yangyang. She sensed danger. Before she could react, he lifted her into his arms.

Xia Yangyang instinctively clung to his neck, then quickly let go. “Gu Qichen, what are you doing?”

“Since you’ve branded me dishonorable, if I don’t act accordingly, wouldn’t I be letting myself down?”

The next moment, Xia Yangyang found herself pressed onto the bed. Gu Qichen kissed her repeatedly. The moment his lips touched her skin, he shivered. She had a faint milky scent, like a baby after feeding.

The aroma was addictive. He’d missed it so much. During their icy estrangement, Gu Qichen felt like he wasn’t himself. Her face haunted his thoughts, even while working late, exhausted. But at home, he couldn’t sleep. Something felt missing.

In a few short months, Xia Yangyang had become a habit. Worse, he repeatedly dreamed of her. Waking to an empty space beside him caused an indistinct ache in his heart.

He’d been thinking a lot lately. He knew he’d lost his reason. With anyone else, he wouldn’t care—not his first love, Lu Haotian, nor Chen Yu. None had made him this miserable. This was different because it involved Xiao Han, his beloved nephew, the person he owed the most.

The more Gu Qichen thought about it, the more unbearable it became. The passionate kiss wasn’t enough. He began to tear at Xia Yangyang’s sleepwear…
