Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived-Chapter 174 - : The Anniversary of the Gentleman and the Lady’s Demise
Chapter 174: Chapter 174: The Anniversary of the Gentleman and the Lady’s Demise
“Qin Sijue, don’t…” She was really tired and couldn’t muster any strength.
Moreover, the deep achiness in her bones hadn’t subsided at all.
Yet, Qin Sijue paid no heed to her resistance and showered her with intense affection before finally stopping!
The following day.
Gu Qiangwei was so exhausted she couldn’t move, feeling as if her bones had been dismantled and reassembled.
She didn’t understand, wasn’t this kind of thing supposed to tire out men the most? Clearly… it was he who was exerting himself.
But Qin Sijue seemed not tired at all, and if she hadn’t pleaded with him, she thought he might have wanted to continue…
With a sore body, she slightly lifted her eyes and glanced at the clock.
At this glance, her eyes widened in shock, thinking the clock was broken!
Two o’clock in the afternoon already? Had she slept that long?
Subconsciously, she quickly sat up in bed—
“Ah.”
A low cry of effort sounded as she felt her bones about to split within her.
After this, Gu Qiangwei made a decision.
She didn’t dare to share a bed with Qin Sijue any longer!
She finally understood why some novels mentioned the male lead rendering the female lead bedridden for three days—such a man really existed…
Gu Qiangwei was a bit hungry, but the soreness of her body truly made her lose any desire to get out of bed.
Then there came a knock on the door.
“Young Madam, you’re awake.”
A maid entered.
For some reason, after yesterday, Qin Sijue strictly ordered that before Gu Qiangwei got out of bed, Qin Si should not set foot in the master bedroom.
Seeing the maid enter, a mix of embarrassment and blush crept onto Gu Qiangwei’s face.
Despite the pain in her body, she could only clutch the bedsheet to her chest and sit up with difficulty, “Mhm.”
The maid spoke with a smile, “Would you like to have your meal now?”
She indeed felt somewhat hungry.
“Mhm.”
“Alright.”
After a respectful bow, the maid withdrew and closed the door behind her.
As she spoke, Gu Qiangwei could only muster her strength to get out of bed, her body bare, as a flush of red once again spread across her face.
After freshening up and going downstairs, she felt dreadful.
Seeing her, Qin Si thought she was ill and couldn’t help but ask with concern, “Young Madam, are you feeling unwell?”
Not knowing how to explain the reason, she simply nodded, “Mhm.”
“Then I shall call Doctor Li over!”
With that, he turned to make a call to Li Yuan.
Gu Qiangwei was startled and quickly stopped him, “No need!”
Qin Si turned back, slightly surprised, “But you look quite unwell…”
Gu Qiangwei felt embarrassed, “I… just didn’t sleep well last night, it’s nothing.”
Being an experienced man, Qin Si instantly understood. He then put the phone down.
Indeed, calling a doctor was futile for such a matter.
“Then rest well for a bit, I’ll see if the kitchen has prepared any food.”

Reading the awkwardness on her face, Qin Si found an excuse to leave, knowing she would feel more at ease when no one else was around.
As he was turning to leave, Gu Qiangwei suddenly asked, “Did Sijue go out?”
Qin Si turned back, “Yes, today is…” He was about to finish when he suddenly paused, his expression somewhat somber, “today is the anniversary of the master and madam’s passing, so the Young Master has gone back to the old mansion.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Qiangwei was taken aback.
The anniversary of the master and madam’s passing?
Who?
“The master and madam you’re referring to are…” She said softly to Qin Si, already having an inkling of what he meant.
