Section 479

She simply didn't want this man to misunderstand.

[Ding… Su Chen's anger burns his heart, Emotion Points +987…]

Gu Ningshuang didn't want to push things to the absolute extreme either.

After all, the betrothal contract had been arranged by her grandfather.

Fulfilling the arrangement was even her grandfather's dying wish.

What she was doing could be considered deeply unfilial.

But who told this guy to be so relentless?

Seeing that the fire was about to burn her own head,

to prevent Xu Hao from misunderstanding, she had no choice but to sever ties.

Xu Hao gave her a surprised look.

This female lead sure knows how to play along.

It wasn't in vain after all his training.

He immediately gave her an appreciative look.

Receiving his approval, Gu Ningshuang breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

As long as it eased Xu Hao's anger toward her, it was worth it.

She then continued to speak to Su Chen, who was heavily struck down.

"Now, immediately, get out right now, or I'll call security to throw you out."

She took a step forward, her eyes cold.

At this moment, Su Chen seemed as if all his energy and spirit had been drained out.

Noticing Gu Ningshuang's anger and her look as if viewing an enemy, he felt even more suffocated.

Silently, he turned around and left the office.

Just as Su Chen was about to turn back around,

he heard a loud "bang."

The office door was slammed shut.

A "click" sounded as it was locked from inside.

Recalling what Xu Hao had said about giving his drop-dead gorgeous fiancée a big precious gift,

as well as the office being locked from the inside now,

it wasn't hard to imagine what the two were going to do inside.

He only felt his heart throbbing violently with intense ache.

Su Chen's fists clenched tightly, his face twisting in rage.

"No matter who you are, I will make you pay a bloody price."

The door closed.

Only Gu Ningshuang and Xu Hao were left inside the office.

Gu Ningshuang walked up close, bent her knees, and was about to kneel down before Xu Hao.

But Xu Hao held her up.

He said with a smile,

"Ningshuang, what are you doing?"

Gu Ningshuang was a bit dazed.

Wasn't this their usual greeting ritual?

Xu Hao had also hinted to her earlier that after driving Su Chen away, he would show her his precious gift.

"Master, weren't you going to show me…"

Gu Ningshuang blushed, unable to bring herself to say the rest out loud.

Xu Hao wrapped his arm around her and sat down on the sofa nearby.

Holding her intimately like this.

"You're pregnant with our child now, so you need to be extra careful. What I wanted to show you is this…"

Xu Hao reached behind his back.

With a thought, he retrieved a large package of fetal-soothing medicine from his Pocket Dimension.

"This is the fetal-soothing medicine I prepared for you. Remember to take it on time; it's good for both you and the baby."

Gu Ningshuang felt her head spinning.

Xu Hao really had changed his attitude toward her.

Not only did he not force her, but he also comforted and cared for her.

Why did Xu Hao undergo such a change?

Could it be because she was pregnant with his child?

Gu Ningshuang touched her stomach.

She couldn't help but feel fortunate that she hadn't aborted the child.

[Ding… Gu Ningshuang cannot contain her embarrassment, Emotion Points +753…]

They spent nearly two hours being intimate and affectionate in the office.

Although Xu Hao didn't force her,

she couldn't let Xu Hao come all this way for nothing.

He had suddenly started treating her so well.

Moved in her heart, Gu Ningshuang felt she had to repay him somehow.

Thus, when she and Xu Hao walked out of the office, her cheeks were flushed and her skin was slightly rosy.

This allowed Su Chen, who possessed exceptional Medical Skill, to see what had happened with just a single glance.

His face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Gu Ningshuang was his fiancée.

Yet he had been driven outside to guard the door.

Knowing full well what the two inside were doing, yet unable to stop it.

Was there anything more humiliating and frustrating than this?

Su Chen had been waiting outside without leaving.

He was waiting for Xu Hao.

As soon as Xu Hao separated from Gu Ningshuang, he would teach him an unforgettable lesson.

Make him repent for his training of Gu Ningshuang.

When coming out of the office, Gu Ningshuang's face was brimming with a smile.

Because she had confirmed it.

Xu Hao had truly become gentle toward her.

Although what shouldn't have happened between them still happened,

it was all on her own initiative and completely voluntary.

Xu Hao doted on her the whole time, being very careful with her.

Gu Ningshuang was satisfied.

She didn't dream of Xu Hao treating her like he treated his close friend Lin Chuqing, as long as he wasn't so harsh to her anymore.

These were all Gu Ningshuang's thoughts after realizing she couldn't escape Xu Hao's control and accepting her fate.

If only she had thought this way in the past,

with a little less hatred toward him,

Xu Hao wouldn't have treated her like that either.

Seeing Su Chen still standing at the door, Gu Ningshuang pulled back her smile and said angrily,

"Why haven't you left yet?"

Su Chen didn't speak; he gritted his teeth, glaring hatefully at Xu Hao.

Gu Ningshuang wasn't having it.

Xu Hao had not only refrained from blaming her earlier, but had also changed his attitude toward her.

She was right in the middle of being deeply touched.
