Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!-Chapter 778: Enemies on a Narrow Road
Gu Moqian pried open her teeth one bit at a time, invading and conquering her sweet lips and tongue. His other large hand clasped the back of her head, pressing her closer to him.
"Mm..."
Their lips were tightly sealed together, and Ji Wei unconsciously let out a low moan. She felt her brain rapidly deprived of oxygen, her cheeks flushing with a scorching redness.
"We’ve kissed so many times, and you still don’t know how to breathe properly?" Gu Moqian pecked at the corner of her lips lightly, his eyes smiling as he softly questioned her.
Her cheeks burned so intensely that they felt scalding. Embarrassed and annoyed, Ji Wei turned her head away, gulping large breaths of air, all the while clutching tightly onto the razor in her hand.
Even though they had been married for quite a while, every time he kissed her, her heartbeat still raced uncontrollably, as if she’d drown the very next second.
Gu Moqian clasped her other free hand, intertwining their fingers, and pulled her into his embrace with one arm.
At that moment, neither said a word.
Ji Wei listened to the steady and powerful rhythm of the man’s heartbeat, feeling as though it was the most comforting sound in the world.
Love was never smooth sailing for anyone. After all that had happened with Gu Moqian, she cherished every moment she spent with him all the more...
After breakfast, the two of them left the house together.
About half an hour later, the Maybach drove down a densely wooded avenue.
The area was surrounded by luxurious mansions. They climbed a winding mountain road, driving a bit further ahead before the car stopped in front of a grand white building.
The design resembled a European castle, evoking the idea that perhaps a prince resided inside.
Even after getting out of the car, Ji Wei’s hand was still firmly held by Gu Moqian.
As if anticipating their arrival, the guard at the gate had already swung open the doors. Their passage was entirely unobstructed all the way in, and even the busy servants refrained from casting curious glances in their direction.
The size of the fountain and lawn inside was astonishing, making Ji Wei increasingly curious about who could possibly live here?
"Mo Qian, are we here to see your friend?" she couldn’t help but ask.
Gu Moqian turned back with a smile: "You’ll know soon enough."
Huh? He was actually being mysterious.
Walking into the living room, Ji Wei swept her gaze around, but suddenly froze.
Sitting on the sofa was a golden-haired, blue-eyed foreign man—why did he look so familiar?!
Scenes flickered like lightning in her mind: on the Marine Pier, aboard a luxurious yacht, there had been a British man in a black uniform, strikingly handsome yet exuding a hint of danger... They had tried to take Ji Yunxiang away, but she intercepted them, forcing him to relent with dozens of ships surrounding the vessel. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
That man’s name was William.
What a small world.
Ji Wei never would have imagined that the person Gu Moqian was bringing her to see was him!
William rested one hand on the sofa back, his impossibly long legs casually stretched beside the coffee table, his hand swirling a glass of red wine.
When he saw the couple enter, his emerald-green eyes paused briefly before he stood up, one hand casually slipping into the pocket of his trousers as he approached them.
"Mr. Gu truly keeps his word, arriving right on time," he remarked.
Gu Moqian responded with little more than a faint press of his lips, indifferent as always.
William didn’t mind his cold attitude, instead turning to Ji Wei with a pleasant smile: "Miss Ji, I told you we’d meet again, didn’t I? I don’t lie."
Ji Wei looked at the man before her, oozing the elegance of an aristocrat, and furrowed her brows slightly.
She had no positive feelings toward him.
A seamless movement, Gu Moqian’s arm wrapped around her, pulling Ji Wei tightly into his embrace—a brazen declaration of possession: "Mr. William, surely you don’t think my wife would remember you after that rushed encounter on the yacht? The one and only meeting you had with my wife was clearly unpleasant, and I dare say she has no interest in recalling someone like you."
