Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage-Chapter 719 - 720: Playing Drowning Game with Him

Chapter 719: Chapter 720: Playing Drowning Game with Him

In that instant, Gu Qichen was filled with regret.

Why did he do such a stupid thing?

Was it only to vent his inner jealousy and anger?

He knew well that Xia Yangyang had been poisoned before, and her body was still healing, yet she had traveled such a long distance.

If something bad happened to Xia Yangyang here…

He would absolutely hate himself.

After diving into the water, Gu Qichen swam quickly towards Xia Yangyang.

Xia Yangyang had almost sunk to the bottom of the pool.

Gu Qichen swam over and grabbed Xia Yangyang’s hand.

But the moment his fingers touched hers…

Xia Yangyang suddenly opened her eyes, and swam towards the surface with considerable grace.

Leaving only a glimpse of her red figure behind him.

Xia Yangyang quickly emerged from the water.

Then she climbed ashore.

After Gu Qichen resurfaced, his eyes were filled with gloom.

His gaze lingered on the vibrant figure at the shore.

She wasn’t really drowning just now.

She was pretending to drown, to play him!

Xia Yangyang turned around, holding a ruby bracelet, swinging it in Gu Qichen’s direction.

A victorious glow shone in her eyes.

Under the moonlight, her red dress resembling a flaming rose.

That striking red seemed to pierce directly into his heart.

Making him feel both startled and moved.

Xia Yangyang then turned and walked inside.

Gu Qichen seemed to be lost in thought, left in the water.

It was the reminder from the guests that got him out of the water.

As Xia Yangyang entered the hall, Li Zhiqian was in the midst of looking for her.

Seeing her walk in soaked, he cried out in shock, “Xiao Qi, what happened?”

Xia Yangyang replied, “The bracelet fell into the pool; I went to get it.”

But it seemed like Xia Yangyang only just realized the gravity of the situation.

The party was about to start, but she hadn’t brought a change of clothes.

Walking around soaked like this was very impolite.

Li Zhiqian quickly took off his coat and draped it over Xia Yangyang.

He said, “Wait for me here for a minute.”

Xia Yangyang stood in the distance and waited.

Though the room was comfortably warm, her drenched clothes still made her feel cold.

At that moment, Gu Qichen too walked in.

Seeing the coat draped over Xia Yangyang, he frowned.

Xi Zijun walked over.

She glanced at Xia Yangyang as she passed by but went straight towards Gu Qichen.

Xi Zijun stopped by Gu Qichen, “What happened to you?”

With a cold voice, Gu Qichen responded, “I’m fine.”

Xi Zijun said, “Fortunately, your suitcase is still in the car. I’ll accompany you to change your clothes.”

Gu Qichen replied, “I’ll go by myself.”

Just as Gu Qichen was about to leave, Li Zhiqian had returned.

With his arm around Xia Yangyang’s shoulder, he whispered something in her ear.

Xia Yangyang looked up, “Is that… okay?”

“It’s fine, I’ve arranged it,” he affirmed.

Xia Yangyang felt that she couldn’t possibly appear at the party in this state.

So she nodded.

Then she followed Li Zhiqian up the spiraling white marble staircase to the second floor.

Gu Qichen’s gaze was still fixated on Xia Yangyang.

Xi Zijun reminded him, “Enough looking, she’s probably going to change as well. You’d better go and change too before you catch a cold.”

Gu Qichen clenched his fist, didn’t say anything, and walked out of the banquet hall with a stern face.
