Chapter 55: What Do You Wish?

That white shirt really can’t be worn anymore.

Gu Qiangwei had never taken off a man’s shirt before. Now that she had to do it, she had no idea where to begin.

But after calming down her anxiety, Gu Qiangwei lifted her arm and slowly pushed his hand out of the sleeves.

As Qin Sijue stared deeply at her detailed actions, a strange emotion surged in his heart.

His white shirt was taken off, and the man’s firm and sexy muscles were presented before her. To Gu Qiangwei, it was crazily tempting!

This man is perfect from top to bottom, inside out!

He has money and good looks. He even has such a good figure!

“Uh… Thanks… for today.”

As Gu Qiangwei took off his clothes, she thought about how he saved her when she was in danger. She thanked him sincerely.

Qin Sijue stared at her. In his head, he was also thinking about the incident that happened at the entrance of the Jue Empire.

When he saw her rushing into the middle of the road, he did not know why, but he felt suffocated; in the end, he rushed over without hesitation.

But it happened so quickly that Qin Sijue had forgotten about that feeling.

“You’re welcome. I said it before: since you are my lady, it is my job to protect you.”

Your job?

Fine. The benefits of being a ‘Fake Mrs. Qin’ are really rather good.

She knew that he had actually saved her by putting his life at risk.

“Are you really fine?”

At first, she thought that it would not be much of a hindrance, but after seeing him struggle to change his clothes, she thought, It must be a rather serious injury, huh? Why doesn’t he stay hospitalized?

“It’s fine.”

His thin lips parted. He did not even care about the injury on his arm.

“You don’t like to be hospitalized?” She asked again, out of curiosity.

The man looked at her suddenly and moved closer to her face. “Do you mean that you like it?”

Gu Qiangwei paused and stared back at him with her pretty eyes. Of course, she did not like to be hospitalized, but no one had a choice when they were hurt!

“Right, Uncle Qin asked if you want to stay for lunch.”

Seeing that he had taken a new singlet, Gu Qiangwei reached out subconsciously to help him put it on, but she retreated the moment she touched the singlet.

Why did she feel like they were newlyweds? She was asking him if he wanted to stay for lunch while also helping him put on his shirt.

This feels so much… like that!

Qin Sijue’s gaze fell on her withdrawn hands at first. Then, he looked up at her pink cheeks on her pale, petite face.

His gaze darkened. “Do you wish for me to?”

Gu Qiangwei looked up, and her expression froze.

Do I wish?

“Uhh… If you have nothing on, then just eat at home?”

After finishing her sentence, she was startled.

Why did I phrase it in such a manner?

An insuppressible feeling of embarrassment flooded her; she looked down, and her face flushed.

“Then I’ll eat at home.”

He seemed to be going with whatever she said.

Gu Qiangwei looked up. She could not help but think, Is this how ‘fake newlyweds’ should behave?

Why do I feel like even though we’re acting, everything else is real?

Ahem… I must be overthinking!

“Let me help you!”

She looked up and saw him struggling to put on his shirt again, so Gu Qiangwei reached out her arm again to help him put his shirt on.

Knock knock knock!

Someone knocked on the door.

Qin Sijue had changed his shirt, and as the two of them walked out of the changing room, they saw butler Uncle Qin standing outside.

Seeing the two of them, he smiled respectfully. “Master, for lunch…”

“I’m having it at home.”
