Chapter 299: Chapter 299 All the Trouble Caused by the Moon (3) Chapter 299: Chapter 299 All the Trouble Caused by the Moon (3) âIâm saying, Gu Qiaoqiao, youâre my wife, you were before, you are now, and you will be in the future!â Qin Yizeâs voice was domineering and unmistakable.
âDidnât we agree that after a year, once you had stabilized, we wouldâŠâ Gu Qiaoqiao hurriedly said.
She didnât finish her sentence before Qin Yize interrupted her.
âYes, we did agree, but having seen the Old Patriarch and your Great Grandmaâs wasted lives, I think my previous idea was very foolish, so Iâve changed my mind.â
âBut I havenât changed my mind, I donât like you anymore.â
âIt doesnât matter, love is indeed very important, but love alone is not enough in a marriage life.â Qin Yize said slowly, âI donât doubt for a moment that your Great Grandfather and Great Grandma were in love back in the day, but what of it? They still parted ways for fifty years, didnât they?â
âThey are they, we are we, itâs not the same,â Gu Qiaoqiao leaned into Qin Yizeâs embrace while her hands were held by him, she struggled, âAlso, let go of me and letâs talk properlyâŠâ
Qin Yize cracked a faint smile and said in a low, yet meaningful voice, âDonât be afraid, I wonât do anything to you without your consent, but if you keep wriggling in my arms, I canât guarantee anything.â
Gu Qiaoqiao stopped struggling at once, her cheeks flushed as she glared huffily at Qin Yize, whose eyes twinkled with mirth. She really wanted to say, if just now I hadnât pushed you away, you would have kissed me.
Still claiming you wonât do anything without my consent, all liesâŠ
She missed the Qin Yize who had a heart as still as water, who was as cold as snow.
But thatâs how the world is, in front of the girl he fancies, which man can remain as cold as snow?
Qin Yize didnât want to boil the frog in warm water, nor did he want to let things happen gradually anymore.
He then tried to move Gu Qiaoqiaoâs heart bit by bit, getting her to abandon those thoughts and stay by his side.
It seemed impractical now.
If things continued like this, who knew if one day Gu Qiaoqiao would leave without looking back.
He would regret it, for sure he would.
As for his feelings for Gu Qiaoqiao, he couldnât organize his thoughts or articulate them, but he knew in his heart that his feelings for her were completely different from before.
The him from before, aside from satisfying her wish to marry him, felt only responsibility.
He hadnât even considered what obligations he had.
But now, things were entirely different from before.
She was in his eyes, in his heart.
Among the vast sea of people, he would recognize her at first glance.
He wanted to be with her forever.
He wanted to talk to her, but he would get distracted while talking and just want to hold her in his arms, to kiss her petal-like red lips.
Just like what happened a moment ago.
He was shocked by such feelings, yet he also liked them very much.
Seeing that Gu Qiaoqiao was no longer struggling, Qin Yize realized that some actions are best stopped at the right moment.
If he went too far, it would be counterproductive.
And him, just now, it was actually a kind of test.
He was testing Gu Qiaoqiao to see if she was really as resolute as she claimed to be.
He then joyfully discovered that aside from being annoyed, Gu Qiaoqiao didnât seem to view him as a scoundrelâŠ
Well, at this point, that was the only standard he could hope for.
He released Gu Qiaoqiao.
Gu Qiaoqiao hastily stepped back two paces, furrowing her brows, yet her heart was beating chaotically.
She wasnât made of stone.
She saw all the good in Qin Yize.
After all, in her youth, she had loved him so earnestly.
In her midnight reveries, she had thought that perhaps carrying on in this hazy fashion might not be so bad.
