Chapter 532: Chapter 533: Why (5)

“Gu Qichen, since I’m back, whatever grievances you have, take them out on me. My grandmother’s old, if you hurt her, I will not let you off easily.”

Gu Qichen coldly looked at Xia Yangyang, “Fine, Xia Yangyang, your words. If you want to know where your grandmother is, come with me. Agree to my conditions, and I promise that not a single hair on her head will be harmed. On the contrary, she’ll be well taken care of.”

With that, Gu Qichen turned and went back into the room.

Xia Yangyang reluctantly followed him in.

After Gu Qichen entered, he began to take off his coat.

Then, turning to Xia Yangyang, he ordered, “Close the door.”

Xia Yangyang frowned but eventually did as instructed.

With his jacket off, Gu Qichen began to unbutton the collar of his shirt.

Then, step by step, he moved towards Xia Yangyang.

Xia Yangyang instinctively felt a sense of danger.

Backing away, she furrowed her brows and asked, “Gu Qichen, what in the world are you planning to do?”

Next thing she knew, she was pressed against the door by Gu Qichen.

He forcefully grabbed her arms, pinning them to either side of her body.

Without a word, he pressed his lips against hers.

The distinct icy flavor of Gu Qichen filled Xia Yangyang’s mouth.

Her mind went blank and she found herself unable to react at all.

It had been four years. Since leaving, Xia Yangyang hadn’t kissed anyone.

She hadn’t even had the slightest intimate contact with any man.

Over the years, Phoenix kept encouraging her to find someone.

Always preaching that “a woman will wither without the nourishment of love”.

Phoenix even once deliberately invited the most handsome bachelor from “Heaven’s Gate” to a yacht party.

It was clear she was trying to matchmake.

But even the slightest brush of a man’s fingers against hers turned Xia Yangyang’s stomach.

Anytime, her instinct was to push the person away.

But Xia Yangyang didn’t expect-

Four years later, upon reuniting with Gu Qichen-

It was like the four years of distance, four years of estrangement, between them had never existed.

As Gu Qichen pressed his kiss, she could feel her body trembling.

The beast within her heart roused from its slumber, roaring wildly. Every cell in her body felt like it was filled with a desperate yearning to be near him, and it grew and writhed,

Gu Qichen’s body started to lose control.

He was fully aware that he was losing all restraint, succumbing, and then it was completely gone.

How long had it been since he had kissed her?

Gu Qichen couldn’t remember. How many days and nights.

Tormented endlessly.

Not knowing where she was, whose company she kept.

Thinking about her possibly blooming with happiness in another’s embrace, while he endured agonizing torment in the infinite darkness.

Why should he?

All kinds of complicated emotions, like a raging flood, were overwhelming him, and he could no longer keep them in check…
