462 The Secret About the Past 80 (1/2)

A week later…

The deal between Gu Beicheng and An Xiaoning was finally signed.

Everyone was elated about this news.

It was a deal that, after the final details have been taken care of, would have only been completed within a month. But presently, it had been settled in about twenty days.

The two met up for wine and dinner, and both of them drank quite a lot. But comparing their tolerance for alcohol, An Xiaoning was drunk while Gu Beicheng only had his face flushed.

Under the accompaniment of their assistant and bodyguards, the two got onto the car and back to the hotel they were staying at.

The car drove all the way back to their hotel entrance, and the two got down from the car at about the same time.

As An Xiaoning could not even stand properly, Gu Beicheng had to help her.

The two began bursting into chatter along the way.

At the hotel corridor, Gu Beicheng saw a figure standing before his door from afar. Narrowing his eyes, he realized it was Lin Mingxi.

Lin Mingxi saw that he was supporting An Xiaoning, so she rushed over and asked, ”The two of you drank?”

”Umm. Why didn't you call me before coming over?”

”I wanted to give you a surprise.”

Although An Xiaoning was drunk, she was not completely unconscious either. She waved them away as she muttered, ”Both of you go. I want to have a bath and sleep too. I'm so dizzy.”

Her assistant hurriedly helped her into the room.

Gu Beicheng used the room card to open the door while Lin Mingxi closed the door shut.

”How long more do you have to stay here?”

”I don't have to stay for much longer, the deal has been signed already.” Gu Beicheng sat at the bedside and took out his phone to call the hotel reception. ”Hi, please send a bowl of hangover soup to room 1288.”

Lin Mingxi knew that this room was 1289. Room 1288 was evidently An Xiaoning's room. While she knew that there was nothing going on between them, she still felt uncomfortable hearing it.

After he hung up the call, she asked, ”Why didn't you send one for yourself too?”

”I'm not really drunk.” He reached out and hugged her waist. ”Why didn't you say anything before coming over? You're playing mysterious now.”

With his strength, Lin Mingxi was pushed closer to him and just sat on his lap directly. Her gaze was calm and composed. ”Did I give you a scare instead of a surprise?”

”What do you mean?” he questioned.

”You understand.”

Gu Beicheng lowered his head and grinned. ”No wonder you came over so secretly. So, you're here to spy on me?”

”Can't I?” She raised her chin slightly.

”Of course you can, you're my wife.” He hugged her as they both lay down; his voice was soothing to the ear. ”Do you want to bathe together?”

Lin Mingxi answered, ”Yes.”

Before their marriage, they had no feelings between them. But ever since she married him, Lin Mingxi's heart was gradually growing closer to his. Since he came to M Nation, she could not sleep properly at night and her imagination could not help but run wild.

That night, after what Xu Youran had said to her, she even lost her focus for a few days consecutively.

She decided to simply settle things by coming over herself.

Gu Beicheng got up slowly from the bed and pulled her up as well, holding onto her hand as they entered the bathroom together.

Lin Mingxi used to be a gym coach and, although she no longer worked at the gym, she still kept the habit of working out.

As such, her body was extremely fit and stunning.

It was a pretty hot figure she possessed.

Adding that to her special attempts to stir him up, Gu Beicheng could not resist and immediately carried her onto the washbasin.

She kissed him once and wanted to continue, but he turned his head to the other side.

Unless it was to fulfill his physical needs, Gu Beicheng rarely kissed her.

But tonight, Lin Mingxi made a small fuss. ”Kiss me.”

Gu Beicheng kissed her shortly. ”Done.”

”It's not enough, I want a French kiss.”
