Chapter 43: Are You Molesting Me?

Qin Shu's face flushed, and she did not dare to meet his naked gaze.

Gu Tingyan had a very strong desire; every time they were in bed, Qin Shu would be worn out to the point of near-death, yet she still could not fully satisfy him.

She did not know if other men were the same.

In their life as a married couple, they did it at least six days out of every week on average.

The remaining day was for rest.

When Gu Tingyan had not touched her, there had been no impure thoughts in his eyes when he looked at her.

Ever since he broke his abstinence, he would almost every day pin Qin Shu onto his lap and torment her until midnight, until Qin Shu could not straighten her waist and, having no strength left while straddling his lap, could only clutch his collar and cry for mercy.

Gu Tingyan's energy back then was so abundant that he was not at all like a disabled person.

Qin Shu felt that she was the one who resembled a disabled person.

The ointment on Qin Shu's leg had dried, and she impatiently climbed down from Gu Tingyan's lap; just as she had climbed halfway, she was scooped up horizontally by the man and stuffed back into the quilt.

Gu Tingyan: "Still climbing? Are you worried the injury on your leg isn't heavy enough?"

Qin Shu had no way to argue and lay in bed without a word.

Gu Tingyan turned off the small lamp for her, walked around to the other side to turn off the lights, and got into bed; the mattress sank down a few inches the moment he got on.

Qin Shu slept on her side with her back to Gu Tingyan.

Gu Tingyan turned over in bed; he stared at Qin Shu's slightly stiff back, leaned in, and whispered: "I want to take off my pants."

He only had one pair of pants on, and apart from those black briefs, there was nothing else.

If he took off any more, he would truly be completely bare.

Qin Shu felt him drawing near, and her heart immediately grew tense.

Qin Shu's ears burned, and she scolded in a low voice: "Gu Tingyan, no."

Qin Shu reached out to push him away, creating a boundary between the two of them and using a pillow to distance them.

Gu Tingyan looked at that wretched pillow; he would throw it away sooner or later. The man said in a low voice: "Wife, I like sleeping naked with you."

When Gu Tingyan slept at night with Qin Shu, he did not like wearing clothes and preferred to sleep naked, not even wearing a pair of briefs; sleeping naked made him very comfortable.

He also did not like Qin Shu having a single piece of clothing on her.

Because when he held her, it affected the tactile sensation.

Qin Shu used to wear pajamas to sleep at night, but later it was forcibly stopped by Gu Tingyan; every time, he would have to strip her clothes off completely before he would hold her to sleep.

Qin Shu gave a cold snort: "I am not your wife anymore."

Gu Tingyan said: "We haven't divorced yet."

He chuckled softly: "You are still on my household registration, so how are you not my wife?"

Qin Shu choked, left speechless by his retort.

Gu Tingyan neatly and efficiently finished taking off his own, then looked at Qin Shu and issued an invitation very amicably:

"Do you need me to help you take yours off?"

Qin Shu's face turned black: "No... need."

She warned Gu Tingyan: "Stay away from me."

Given the frequency of their previous activities, Gu Tingyan could almost be considered to have few desires now.

Qin Shu was afraid he would let his beastly nature run wild.

Gu Tingyan did not force her either.

He covered himself with the quilt and truly did not harass Qin Shu again; he really just closed his eyes and slept.

Qin Shu heard the faint sound of breathing coming from the bedside, and the taut string in her heart finally loosened; she closed her eyes in peace and drifted off to sleep.

The next day.

Qin Shu felt a soft touch on her lips; someone was nibbling on them.

Qin Shu had been too exhausted yesterday and was very sleepy; she had slept very soundly. In her daze, she kept her eyes closed, hugged the man's lean waist tightly, and habitually burrowed into Gu Tingyan's embrace.

Qin Shu felt that she was holding a man with a great physique; her brain instantly jolted awake, and she opened her eyes abruptly.

Qin Shu discovered that she was half-sprawled on top of Gu Tingyan in an extremely awkward position, her hands tightly hugging his waist, her head buried in his neck, and one leg even wedged between his legs.

This position was very ambiguous.

At the very least, it was not appropriate for someone with an ex-husband.

Qin Shu's mind went blank; she did not even know how she had ended up on top of Gu Tingyan.

She turned her head to look for the pillow in the middle, but it was gone; somehow, it had fallen onto the floor.

Qin Shu's palms were against the man's warm, smooth skin; Gu Tingyan's body was very slippery, and his skin was very nice.

There was a scar on his thigh, and Qin Shu's leg, lying across his two legs, felt it clearly.

She only felt embarrassed and slowly tried to get up and move off.

The moment Qin Shu moved, the man beneath her woke up.

Gu Tingyan lowered his head to glance at the person sprawled on top of him, his voice hoarse: "We're about to get a divorce, are you molesting me?"

The corners of Qin Shu's mouth twitched slightly: "..."

Qin Shu tried her best to explain: "I know you might not believe it when I say it."

"But I don't know why I was sprawled on top of you either."

Gu Tingyan rested his hands behind his head and looked at her with a half-smile: "It seems you still have plenty of ideas about my body."

That look might as well have been telling Qin Shu: Go ahead, keep pretending, I'll just watch you quibble.

Qin Shu abruptly turned over and rolled off Gu Tingyan's body, covering her face with the quilt.

Gu Tingyan reached out to pull at her quilt: "Don't suffocate yourself inside."

He lifted his feet and, stark naked, got out of bed, his tall and straight figure heading to the bathroom to take a cold shower.

This was the first time that, even after he had stripped down like this, he could still just lie under the covers and chat with Qin Shu.

In the past, Qin Shu definitely wouldn't have been able to get out of bed today.

Gu Tingyan finished his cold shower to calm himself down; he walked out with only a bath towel wrapped around his lower body, wiping his hair as he went, draped the towel over a chair, and walked over to toss the pillow from under the bed onto the sofa nearby.

This pillow was completely superfluous.

Gu Tingyan picked out a modest dress from the closet for Qin Shu and placed it at the head of the bed: "Get up, let's go downstairs for breakfast."

She hadn't taken these clothes with her, so it was perfect that she had something to wear upon returning.

Qin Shu: "Mm."

She lifted the quilt to get out of bed, but just as she was about to stand up, her legs went weak, and with a "thud," she knelt directly on the floor; seeing Gu Tingyan right in front of her, she instinctively reached out for help and ended up pulling off the bath towel wrapped around Gu Tingyan's waist.

Gu Tingyan: "..."

Qin Shu clutched the pulled-off bath towel in her hand, kneeling between Gu Tingyan's legs, her eyes wide open.

Gu Tingyan's face turned black, and he reached out to pull her from the floor back onto the bed:

"Qin Shu, did you do that on purpose?"

Qin Shu's little face turned beet red; she hurriedly used the bath towel to cover his bare body, feeling quite awkward, and stammered: "I-I-I-I really didn't do it on purpose!"

Gu Tingyan's face also flushed a little; he reached out to take the bath towel, expressionless, and feigned composure as he tied it back on—this time, he tied it extra tight!!!!!

Gu Tingyan liked to sleep naked, but he didn't like having his last shred of decency stripped away in broad daylight.

Gu Tingyan quickly went into the bathroom and took another cold "combat" shower.

After finishing breakfast, Qin Shu went upstairs to chat with Su Tuantuan and told her what had just happened.

After listening to Qin Shu's description, Su Tuantuan was silent for a moment and said: "Qin Shu, you just crave his body!"
