Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage-Chapter 801 - 802: Gu Qichen, Playing Dumb

Chapter 801: Chapter 802: Gu Qichen, Playing Dumb

Gu Qichen put the crab roe bun in front of Xia Yangyang, “You haven’t eaten anything tonight, have you? Eat something first, then get back to work.”

Xia Yangyang saw the steaming crab roe bun and shrimp dumplings in front of her.

She looked up in surprise, “Isn’t this place very hard to get to? They should be closed by this time, how did you manage to buy these?”

Gu Qichen casually took a seat on the edge of Xia Yangyang’s office desk, the corners of his mouth curving up slightly, “A wise man has his own schemes.”

Although Gu Qichen spoke lightly, Xia Yangyang knew it couldn’t have been that simple.

She presumed that Gu Qichen must have gone to some trouble, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been an hour late.

...

The sour feeling in her heart seemed to be evaporating bit by bit.

Xia Yangyang picked up a small bun with her hand and put it into her mouth directly.

The rich and savory taste of crab roe spread between her lips and teeth, Xia Yangyang exclaimed, “It’s delicious.”

Gu Qichen spoke slowly, “Did you just go to the parking lot?”

Xia Yangyang’s breath hitched, and she responded offhandedly, “No.”

Gu Qichen’s gaze fixedly landed on Xia Yangyang’s face, “You don’t dare to look into my eyes when you lie.”

Xia Yangyang looked up, “What lie would I tell, and I’m not afraid to look into your eyes.”

Xia Yangyang stared straight into Gu Qichen’s eyes.

It was almost like she was acting out of defiance.

If she lacked even this courage, then her past four years would have truly been in vain.

A slight curve appeared on Gu Qichen’s lips, his voice gentle,

Yet his demeanor was like teasing a kitten, “So you didn’t see Zhang Xinyi, either?”

Xia Yangyang’s brows furrowed, “No.”

Suddenly, Gu Qichen lifted his hand and stretched it out in front of Xia Yangyang, open palmed.

In Gu Qichen’s palm there was a button from a piece of clothing, “Then this cuff button shouldn’t be yours, right?”

Xia Yangyang reflexively raised her hand to check her own clothes’ buttons.

Indeed, one was missing.

Having lost it in the parking lot, Xia Yangyang had no defense.

Xia Yangyang simply admitted it, “Yes, I did go to the parking lot. I saw Mr. Gu and Miss Zhang tightly embracing each other, so engrossed in each other that I couldn’t bear to disturb, so I left. Mr. Gu knows what’s inside his heart, so why bother exposing it.”

Gu Qichen watched Xia Yangyang’s reaction and couldn’t help laughing inwardly.

The term ‘Mr. Gu’ provoked her, which indicated she was indeed angry.

However, Gu Qichen found Xia Yangyang’s jealousy quite adorable.

Enjoying the sight for a while with an amused look, Gu Qichen said nothing.

Xia Yangyang felt unnerved under Gu Qichen’s gaze.

And the anger she had managed to suppress was starting to blaze up again.

In any case, this was akin to being caught red-handed.

Yet Gu Qichen didn’t bother to explain even a single word.

Xia Yangyang snorted.

And buried her head back in her work.

Looking at the crab roe bun next to her, it seemed irritating no matter how she looked at it.

Acting slightly childish, she nudged it to the side.

Gu Qichen stopped teasing her and said, “Alright, I was wrong. I won’t hug any other woman again from now on. Please forgive me this once, okay? And you should know, that was merely a courteous hug, with no feelings involved.”

Xia Yangyang knew, of course.

Because she was there at the time.

That embrace was initiated by Zhang Xinyi.

Xia Yangyang was not such a petty person.

Xia Yangyang didn’t understand what exactly made her uncomfortable?

Perhaps it was that Gu Qichen was utterly oblivious to Zhang Xinyi’s love for him, or maybe he was just playing the fool.
