Fierce Love: Bringing Wife Home-Chapter 56 - He gives her a weird feeling!
56: He gives her a weird feeling!
56: He gives her a weird feeling!
Instantly, his heart felt as if it had been struck by a hammer, a stifling discomfort settling within, while a wave of guilt spread at the bottom of his heart.
But if he thought about it carefully, wasn’t it her who initiated this whole affair?
It took Quan Shaoqing quite a while to come to his senses, slapping his forehead, wishing he could knock himself out.
Gu Xiaoxi was drunk, unaware of anything.
He, however, was not drunk.
What had he done?
Quan Shaoqing reflected for a long time in the basement.
Seeing Gu Xiaoxi really asleep on the carpet, he carefully picked her up and headed to the room.
All the way there, his movements were light, thankfully without waking her again.
The next day
The glaring sunlight poured into Gu Xiaoxi’s bedroom.
She sat up abruptly, wiping the sweat off her forehead.
Damn!
Another dream.
And it was a damn wet dream this time.
The man in the dream had a pair of cold, fierce eyes, a sturdy chest, and a sexy chin, but no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t see his face clearly.
Gu Xiaoxi shook her jet-black hair and got out of bed to brush her teeth and wash her face.
Today she had to accompany Quan Shaoqing to attend a live drill.
Although she had already experienced actual combat and really killed people, she had never witnessed an army in action.
She was very much looking forward to observing.
She quickly got ready, her military uniform neatly put on.
After she descended the stairs, she saw Quan Shaoqing sitting at the dining table reading a newspaper, with an untouched breakfast on the table.
Clearly, he was waiting for her to have breakfast together.
“Morning!” Gu Xiaoxi squinted, her smile radiant as a flower.
“Morning!” Quan Shaoqing instinctively lifted the newspaper higher, as if deliberately shielding himself from her, not wanting to see her.
Behind the newspaper, the man’s cold cheeks were suspiciously flushed, especially his thin lips—so cold and distinct—were involuntarily pursed, causing his cheeks to tense up uncomfortably.
He had to admit.
At this moment, his feelings were in turmoil, and he didn’t dare to look at Gu Xiaoxi.
Last night’s events, although unknown to her, had kept him up all night.
Even brushing his teeth in the morning, he could still feel the breath she had left on his lips.
Gu Xiaoxi sat at the dining table, raising her eyebrows at Quan Shaoqing and feeling that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
She bit into her bread and suddenly reached out, snatching the newspaper from his hands, “Did you get into a fight last night?
Why are you covering your face; ashamed to be seen?”
Quan Shaoqing’s hand was left empty, his eyes darkening as he raised his head to look at Gu Xiaoxi.
As she ate the bread, white cream stuck to the corner of her rosy lips, adding a few more enticing elements to her delicate features.
Especially the cream at the corner of her mouth, it made him involuntarily think of last night.
“Gulp,” he swallowed, his heart tickled by a feather, itching with an urge to kiss her again.
Gu Xiaoxi blinked, licked the cream off her lips with her tongue, and seeing Quan Shaoqing swallow as if famished.
She nodded knowingly, with a smile, “You don’t need to wait for me for breakfast.
If you’re hungry, you can eat first!”
Quan Shaoqing pinched his thigh hard, stopping himself from wandering thoughts.
“Was I waiting for you?
I was reading the newspaper,” Quan Shaoqing quickly said with a cold face, trying to cover up.
His face darkened immediately and embarrassment quickly colored his cheeks.
This damn girl, truly, wouldn’t admit to her mischief.
Last night, she wickedly lit a fire in his heart, leaving him all messed up.
And her, after everything seemed as if nothing had happened, she was as pure as a blank sheet of paper.
Especially when she got near.
He had an instinctive physical reaction.
Even when she licked her lips, he couldn’t help but feel impulsive, his thoughts running wild.
Gu Xiaoxi looked at the suspicious blush on Quan Shaoqing’s ears and pointed at him, interrogating, “Did you do something bad last night?
Look at you, with that guilty expression.”
Quan Shaoqing suppressed the palpitations in his heart and glared at Gu Xiaoxi.
“It was you who did something bad!
Now eat your breakfast quickly.
We’re leaving in ten minutes.”
Gu Xiaoxi eyed Quan Shaoqing doubtfully, then bit into her bread bite by bite, washing it down with some milk.
During this time, Gu Xiaoxi always felt a pair of eyes watching her, but whenever she looked up, Quan Shaoqing sat there with a cool expression, revealing no special emotion.
“Are you done eating?
If so, let’s get going,” Quan Shaoqing felt the atmosphere in the dining room was too intimate.
He couldn’t stop watching Gu Xiaoxi, so he decided to skip breakfast altogether and stood up to leave with long strides.
Watching his retreating figure, Gu Xiaoxi felt inexplicably strange.
She quickly finished her breakfast, packed up a few things, and followed Quan Shaoqing out.
The helicopter arrived at Quan Shaoqing’s command center.
Gu Xiaoxi had shown her face at the command center often, so naturally, everyone there recognized her.
However, under Quan Shaoqing’s instructions, the soldiers did an excellent job keeping things confidential and didn’t spread any gossip about the relationship between Quan Shaoqing and Gu Xiaoxi.
Quan Shaoqing drove himself, taking Gu Xiaoxi to Team A’s operation camp.
By then, everyone was ready to deploy.
Quan Shaoqing personally took Gu Xiaoxi to watch the actual combat, partly to boost morale.
Team A had about a hundred people in total.
Since half of them had been dispatched for various tasks like undercover operations, there were fewer than fifty people left in the combat team.
Gu Xiaoxi was delighted to see her junior, Jiang Shichi, among these men.
Because they were nearing the battlefield, everyone was especially serious.
Gu Xiaoxi didn’t want to disturb them.
After a six-hour flight, they arrived at a deep mountain forest.
The border of the Southern Border Country.
Over fifty people parachuted from the airplane to land.
On the plane, Gu Xiaoxi ran excitedly towards a parachute on one side, her emotions high.
She had always envied those who could strap on a parachute and look down at the earth beneath them.
At this moment, her wish was finally about to come true.
But before she could even touch the parachute, Quan Shaoqing grabbed her back.
“You haven’t been trained.
You can’t operate by yourself.
I’ll take you skydiving!”
Gu Xiaoxi’s smile was uglier than crying.
She looked back at Quan Shaoqing, blinking pitifully, “But I don’t want to go with you.
I want to fly by myself.”
Quan Shaoqing snorted coldly, and without a word, fastened his safety harness onto Gu Xiaoxi, then wrapped his arm around her waist and jumped off the plane.
The howling wind was fierce by her ears, and as they plummeted rapidly, Gu Xiaoxi hugged his neck and roared in fright, “Damn it, at least warn me before you jump!
You scared me to death.”
Quan Shaoqing felt the grip on his neck tighten, smiling satisfactorily, “Scared now, are you?
Weren’t you just saying you wanted to fly by yourself?”
Gu Xiaoxi: “…”
What could she say?
Gu Xiaoxi looked at Quan Shaoqing, noticing his mischievous smile curling up ever so slightly at the corners of his mouth, and she always felt there was something off about his expression today.
He made her feel peculiar too!
