Chapter 1625: Chapter 1625: Then Will You Marry Me?
She always felt that Shen Lingfeng was just too busy, so only in this way could he head home with her early at night.
As Shen Lingfeng placed her on the bed, he pressed down.
Gu Ziyou’s heart raced uncontrollably; for a moment, she thought he was going to kiss her until she was breathless.
But to her surprise, he only planted a kiss on her hair, hugging her tightly.
Is this his way of getting her to sleep?
This wasn’t the usual routine.
Usually, it was her holding him and refusing to let go; today, it’s the opposite.
But it’s so warm.
Gu Ziyou shifted a bit, but with just that little movement, the embrace tightened.
He lowered his voice in warning, "Don’t move."
"Oh."
She dared not move.
It felt like Shen Lingfeng’s voice was stretched tight, teetering on the brink...
"Youyou."
After a long while, when she was drowsily falling asleep in his arms, she heard him call her.
"Mm..."
"I love you."
Her eyes suddenly opened wide.
With her body held so tightly, her head was buried in his chest; she couldn’t even see his expression.
Gu Ziyou’s eyes widened, and she returned his embrace.
"I love you too."
The feeling of getting her wish fulfilled made her feel that all of this was worth it.
"Then will you marry me?" His voice seemed to rise a bit.
Gu Ziyou closed her eyes and sweetly said, "Okay!"
Even though the order was a bit reversed, she felt now that whatever he said, she wanted to agree without hesitation.
"One last thing. From now on, don’t get too close to that Li Chaoxi."
"Uh..."
This was something she found hard to agree to.
"But I’ve known him for a long time. He’s a very good friend to me, like a brother. It’s different from you; you can rest assured," Gu Ziyou hurried to explain, "I definitely wouldn’t cheat."
Shen Lingfeng’s voice was emotionless as his fingers seemed to twirl her hair, leisurely saying, "You can’t be alone with him."
"Generally, I’d call Mengmeng along, but if sometimes..."
"No ifs." His tone was resolute, "No means no. There aren’t that many excuses."
Inwardly, Gu Ziyou sighed lightly; this was overcorrecting the problem.
But forbidding her from meeting Li Chaoxi alone under any circumstance seemed excessive.
"Not speaking anymore?" His voice suddenly became much colder.
It had been so warm just now, but now Gu Ziyou felt a bit of chill.
"You’re being unreasonable." Gu Ziyou mumbled, "You can’t just be this reckless because I questioned you over why you wouldn’t let me explain. Back then, you didn’t know who he was or what our relationship was, but now, I’ve explained, told you everything."
Just as Gu Ziyou finished speaking, she suddenly felt a pain in her waist.
The body that had been holding her pressed down assertively.
Her mouth followed, feeling the pain.
Shen Lingfeng kissed her fiercely, his cold eyes fixed on the person beneath him.
"I don’t want to be reasonable right now." His attitude remained firm, "I don’t want to see you and him together."
He knew, for Gu Ziyou, Li Chaoxi was just like a brother-type friend.
But for Li Chaoxi, it was likely a different story.
He still vividly remembered the look in Li Chaoxi’s eyes when they ran into each other that day.
He clearly knew Gu Ziyou’s relationship with him, yet deliberately showed intimacy with Gu Ziyou in front of him.
