Fierce Love: Bringing Wife Home-Chapter 18 - I like it here
18: I like it here.
18: I like it here.
Ha ha ha!
There will be good shows to watch in the future.
Lin Mi couldn’t help but snicker.
It’s just that those thousand push-ups were so unjust!
Who can tell him why the fine Young Master Quan wanted to punish him?
“Keeper!
I’ve injured my foot!” Gu Xiaoxi’s voice was very pleasant, crisp and soft.
Especially since she was injured, with a swollen nose and face, blinking her watery big eyes, it made his heart break.
Quan Shaoqing sighed helplessly and stepped forward.
Just as he reached out his hand, Gu Xiaoxi climbed into his arms like a nimble monkey, her legs wrapped around his waist and her arms around his neck, looking at his steely face, “Do you really have the heart to ignore me?
Shaoqing, I won’t call you ‘uncle’ anymore.”
Quan Shaoqing’s mouth twitched.
He suspected he might have brought a wolf into his house.
Did this thing even know how to spell ‘dignity’?
Normally, others would be as scared of him as grandsons but in front of Gu Xiaoxi, it was he who seemed like the grandson.
He picked her up horizontally with his hand and commanded with a cold face, “No fooling around!”
Seeing that he was truly angry, Gu Xiaoxi pouted and simply kept silent, nestling in his arms.
She closed her eyes, rested for a moment, and felt the arms holding her were strong and gave a sense of security.
She had never been held by a man as she grew up.
She had always felt her mother’s hands were warm, something she could never forget in her lifetime.
And this man, it was also so comfortable in his arms, being held by him was like spring had come, even warmer than her mother’s hands.
“Keeper, you changed cars again?
You don’t want your Iron Horse 999 anymore?”
Quan Shaoqing had just put Gu Xiaoxi in the car, and this thing was as curious as a country bumpkin entering the city, poking her head around here and there, touching this and looking at that.
Quan Shaoqing sat on the sofa inside the car, legs crossed, and said calmly, “The new Z0 model, the Iron Horse 999 is practically scrap now.”
“Crap!” Gu Xiaoxi rolled her eyes.
Just how rich was this guy?
The Iron Horse 999 configuration was more than twice as good as the Blue Dragonfly, and he had the nerve to tell her it was scrap.
Gu Xiaoxi tapped her fingers and hopped on one foot to sit down next to Quan Shaoqing, smiling ingratiatingly, “Shaoqing, when will you let me drive it?”
“It depends on your performance!” Quan Shaoqing glanced at her sideways, seriously.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded vigorously, “Whatever you ask, I shall do.
How about I give you a kiss to show my love for you?”
“…” Quan Shaoqing swallowed, what on earth was this girl’s head filled with?
Doesn’t she know that men and women should be differentiated?
“Come home with me and be obedient!” Quan Shaoqing said sternly.
Gu Xiaoxi hugged Quan Shaoqing’s arm, smiling accommodatingly, “Sure, sure.”
*
Gu Xiaoxi lay in the hospital for three days under Quan Shaoqing’s threat.
Her foot injury healed.
Quan Shaoqing was also ready to go home to recuperate.
Thus, Gu Xiaoxi saw the home she would live in in the future.
Occupying an entire hill, a luxurious villa like a palace stood three stories high, with a one thousand square meter swimming pool at the entrance, fragrant perfume roses on the left side, while a racetrack sprawled over the hill on the right, with peach trees planted along the road which, though flowerless in summer, bore full trees of peaches, heavy with fruit.
Gu Xiaoxi, like an agile and sensitive cat, got out of the car and dashed to the lawn, spreading her arms with uninhibited joy in front of her new home, smiling radiantly.
Moments later, she turned back to look at Quan Shaoqing, her eyes gleaming with mischievous light, “If you had told me earlier your family was rich, I wouldn’t have refused.
I like it here!”
She joyfully ran on the racetrack, passed through the beautiful Rose Garden, and played in the water at the fountain by the front gate.
Quan Shaoqing watched her figure, his cold lips revealing a gentle, tender smile.
She was indeed a naive girl, expressing her happiness so directly and boldly.
But he liked it.
Compared to those girls who were reserved yet filled with desire for this place, she seemed so real, likable, unrestrained, and lighthearted.
Lin Mi stood behind Quan Shaoqing and exclaimed with a smile, “Miss Gu really is special.
Even her way of expression is so unique!”
Quan Shaoqing smiled, without saying much, and strode towards the luxurious villa.
Lin Mi smiled faintly, thinking that life here would certainly be exciting in the future.
With such a wonderful person around, how bad could it be?
Quan Shaoqing had always lived alone because he held a high position and was influential.
In his presence, everyone was restrained, even afraid to speak more than necessary.
Only with Gu Xiaoxi did he feel comfortable.
Especially these past few days, he had noticed that they seemed like a natural family, with many unspoken understandings and complementing each other.
Gu Xiaoxi strolled around the garden, then dashed energetically into the big villa.
The interior decor, in pure European style, was dazzlingly luxurious, enough to blind someone.
“Shaoqing!
Did you embezzle funds?
This house must be worth at least ten billion!
Isn’t it said that soldiers are always poor?” Gu Xiaoxi said, touching an antique porcelain with shining eyes.
All she could see was money!
Damn, what luck to have stumbled upon a caretaker who came to her door and was much wealthier than she was.
Hugging the thighs, she must cling onto these thighs immediately!
Quan Shaoqing carried the tea out, glancing at Gu Xiaoxi sideways, “Are you showing disdain?
Who taught you that soldiers have to be poor?”
Gu Xiaoxi blinked, alright then, as if she never asked!
Quan Shaoqing handed the cup to Gu Xiaoxi.
She took it immediately but then set it on the coffee table.
She walked up to him, wrapped her arms around Quan Shaoqing’s neck, hanging in front of him like a little monkey, her black and shiny eyes full of fox-like slyness, “Shaoqing, tell me.
We are a family from now on, right?”
Quan Shaoqing’s face darkened, the unique fragrance of the young girl wafting towards him; her soft body clung to him like a water snake, making him involuntarily stiffen and struggle to breathe.
“Let go!” His tone was cold and authoritative.
“I won’t let go until you tell me.
Are we a family from now on!” Gu Xiaoxi persisted, staring with determination.
She was not afraid of him!
Quan Shaoqing clenched his teeth and, with a stiff body, answered, “Yes!”
“That’s good!
From now on, what’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is yours.
Pinky swear!” Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes sparkled as she grabbed Quan Shaoqing’s hand, pinky linking with pinky, sealing it with a stamp.
Because she was too excited and too happy, she jumped and kissed him on the forehead.
(No choice, Quan Shaoqing was too tall, she couldn’t reach while standing!)
Quan Shaoqing was petrified on the spot.
By the time he came to his senses, Gu Xiaoxi had already disappeared without a trace.
This girl?
How exactly should he educate her?
Couldn’t she express her liking and happiness a bit more subtly?
He was a normal man!
While he was deeply conflicted.
Gu Xiaoxi stood on the golden railing of the second floor, waving at him and laughing like a demon, “Keeper, when’s dinner?
I’m hungry.”
Quan Shaoqing touched his forehead, still feeling a faint warmth there, and found it not at all unpleasant.
Looking at Gu Xiaoxi’s beautiful face, a tenderness overflowed in his heart.
He too was a lonely person.
With her in his life, did that mean they now had someone to care for each other?
This feeling was subtle, as if the door to happiness had opened and all they had to do was step inside to keep that happiness forever.
Seeing him silent, Gu Xiaoxi stood on the second-floor railing, spread her arms, and jumped down without any hesitation.
“Keeper, you have to catch me!”
