Chapter 30 - Spending the Weekend Together (2/2)
Yi Ran suddenly felt a little embarrassed. It was an art book primarily about Wang Xizhi’s “Orchid Pavilion” series. It was exquisitely printed and the content was elegant and informative. It was actually very suitable for a culture-conscious people like Director Gu.
“I haven’t read the book yet. I ordered it online at a discount, and the price wasn’t high.”
She always spoke very honestly, and Gu Tingchuan especially loved this unpretentious attitude.
To Yi Ran’s surprise, Director Gu calmly said “Oh, the first book I took was not this. I took The Overbearing President’s Pampered Wife but I hadn’t read too much of it.”
Yi Ran: “…”
Was there still time for her to tear the book up?!!
Gu Tingchun knew that he had successfully frightened her. He took a cookie from the plate with a small smile, took a bite, and said, “It tastes good.”
His tone was obviously very encouraging. She was satisfied and set the plate aside, not forgetting to quickly changed the subject before he could continue to discuss the plot of The Overbearing President’s Pampered Wife.
“If you can accept a little more sweets, then I have something better. I bought a particularly famous osmanthus tea cake and glutinous rice cakes. In fact, it should be delicious at home on rainy days like this.” She squinted her eyes and smiled. She continued with a pink face, “Oh yes, I planted a little tomato pot on the terrace. What do you think? ”
Gu Tingchuan lowered his head to continue reading and nodded acquiescently.
She knew more about these matters than he did.
They spent the rest of the day chatting at home and paying attention to staying fit and healthy. In the evening, Director Gu went for a run in the small gym by the billiards table. Yi Ran played a few games but, when she grew bored, she decided to join him.
As a result, after jogging on the treadmill for about forty minutes, she ended up jumping off and bending down and panting.
Gu Tingchuan was sweating all over, but she could see that he was breathing evenly and was not tired at all. Yi Ran stared dazedly at his figure, which seemed to be floating light as a feather.
Beyond him, the French window showed an artificial lake shimmering under the drizzle of rain. The water surface rippled like silk and the mist seemed to have created a place that was like a blend between heaven and earth.
As Gu Tingchuan ran on the treadmill, the sweat on his face was visible under the light. He smiled casually. “We should exercise more in the future in order to increase our physical strength.”
Yi Ran naturally felt a sense of failure, until she looked at his chest. A slightly wet Director Gu was so sexy that she forgot everything else. She felt that the man was really mysterious and irresistible, like the unfathomable sea.
“By the way, when you take your clothes off later, remember to put them by the laundry basket. Auntie will do the wash on Monday.”
“Oh, I’m done, I’ll change it now.” He took off his sweaty shirt and threw it at her hand.
Yi Ran was completely dumbfounded.
The clothes were full of the man’s strong pheromone, making her little heart felt almost unbearable. Looking at his figure, she felt that he looked particularly mature, muscular, hot and charming. Oh, her heart felt as if it would explode!
Gu Tingchuan came over when she was distracted, placed one hand on her waist, and lowering his head, drop a soft kiss on her lips. Their faces were close together, but there was no more movements on his end. The kiss had been incredibly soft and elegant, exuding a taste of coy pampering.
Yi Ran’s heart was filled with a honey sweet taste. Her eyes were dark and bright on her small, fair face.
This kind of weather, this sense of security, was perfect between you and I.
With you by my side.
……
Gu Tingchuan paid great attention to his environment and particularly liked his surroundings to be secluded. The windows of each room in the house were equipped with window screens, blackout curtains and blinds. Several layers of curtains kept all the lights and paparazzi out. Of course, most of the people who settle in this high-end residential area were also prestigious people. Therefore, safety had always been incredibly important.
Yi Ran slowly woke up. The room was dark, and she could hear a little rustling movement behind her. She asked in a husky voice, “What time is it?”
“It’s still early. Go back to sleep for a while.”
The calm voice from behind her seemed to have been awake for a while.
