Chapter 355: Chapter 356: What’s wrong with you?

At this time, Qin Sijue should have already gone to the office.

She furrowed her brows, opening her eyes with a hint of surprise.

As soon as she opened them, a face as chiseled and charismatic as a sculpture crashed into her line of sight.

It was indeed Qin Sijue. Was he not busy today?

“Do you always wake up this early?”

Qin Sijue had a fixed waking time, so from seven o’clock on, he had been admiring her various sleeping postures and expressions.

Normally, he would have left for the office very early, so he generally had no idea what time she actually woke up.

Looking at the man opposite her and feeling his evenly warm breath, Gu Qiangwei blinked her clear, half-awake eyes, “You don’t have to go to the office today?”

“Mhm.”

“Not busy?”

“Mhm.”

“Then are you staying at home all day today?”

In the past half-month, he seemed to have been particularly busy, leaving before she woke up each day, and not returning until after she had fallen asleep at night.

“No.”

At his words, Gu Qiangwei was taken aback once more.

So, was he still going to go out for business later?

“You have business to attend to?”

“No, don’t you want to learn something?”

She paused, having nearly forgotten about this since she had last mentioned it and he hadn’t brought it up since.

So, was he specially clearing his schedule today to teach her some skills?

“Mhm.”

“After breakfast, let’s go to Dragon Phoenix Mansion.”

“What’s that place?”

“The place where you will learn your skills.”

“Oh,” she acknowledged.

Just awakened, she didn’t seem to fully remember, and besides, the cozy warmth of the autumn blankets always made it hard to leave the bed.

The two on the bed looked at each other as if they hadn’t admired the other for centuries.

Looking at his handsome face, Gu Qiangwei suddenly thought of something.

It seemed like a long time since he had touched her…

Even when kissing her, it was always brief, never a deep kiss.

If he had lost ‘interest’ in her, that seemed unlikely, so why then?

“Qin Sijue.”

From under the covers, she poked her head out, staring at him with yearning eyes. Her voice, softened from just waking up, was indeed Qin Sijue’s most fatal seduction!

“Mhm,” he said, his voice hoarse but tender.

“You…” she raised her hand, gently touching the tip of his dignified nose.

For the first time on this beautiful morning, enjoying the rare leisure time with him.

Some words were too embarrassing for her to utter. It wasn’t that she couldn’t stand loneliness, but rather, it felt strange. Why hadn’t Qin Sijue touched her since that last time?

She wanted to know whether she no longer aroused his interest, or if there were other reasons.

But then again, she found herself actually missing him…

At that thought, Gu Qiangwei froze, then her cheeks flushed rapidly, wishing she could burrow into the covers and never come out again!

So early in the morning, and she was thinking of such dirty things! How utterly embarrassing!

Seeing her cheeks suddenly turn red and how she seemed to want to dive back under the covers, Qin Sijue’s brows lifted slightly, somewhat surprised.

“What’s wrong?”

“Nothing…”

She shrank back, lifting her hand to cover her entire head with the deep grey blanket.

Qin Sijue frowned, reaching out to pull the blanket from her head.

“What are you doing?”

“Nothing…”

She lowered her gaze, too embarrassed to meet his eyes, darting her gaze left and right.

The next second, Qin Sijue suddenly rolled over, pinning her under the covers, his dark eyes looming over her, seeming to have guessed the reason behind her flushed face.
