Chapter 671

"But I do mind."

Gu Gu Hanyuan said with a light laugh:

"It's all right, Lady. You may take your time considering."

Feng Heng let out a quiet sigh of relief at those words.

A little awkwardly, she said:

"Then could you let go of my hand first?"

Yet Gu Gu Hanyuan flatly refused:

"No."

"You're so overbearing."

Feng Heng rolled her eyes, none too pleased.

Unfortunately, Gu Gu Hanyuan only answered with a light laugh.

"Thanks for the compliment."

After that, Gu Gu Hanyuan simply kept holding Feng Heng's slender hand.

Chatting about every sort of thing under the sun.

Feng Heng's temperament was almost identical to Huang Rong's.

The deeper the conversation went, the more she admired Gu Gu Hanyuan's vast knowledge.

Before she knew it, she had set aside the worries in her heart.

And was chatting away with a smile bright as a flower.

She didn't even notice when Gu Gu Hanyuan had already laced his fingers through hers.

Until Huang Rong came over carrying the dishes.

And looked, laden with meaning, at their interlaced fingers.

Only then did Feng Heng startle awake.

Snatching her hand back as if she'd been shocked.

So embarrassed she couldn't bring herself to meet Huang Rong's gaze.

Fortunately, Huang Rong did not tease her.

She only gave Gu Gu Hanyuan a reproachful glare.

Signaling him not to be so rash.

Gu Gu Hanyuan nodded in unconcerned assent.

Whether he could actually do it, though, was another matter.

Gu Gu Hanyuan looked at the dishes on the table.

With an amused smile, he said:

"Rong'er, why is there no 'Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night' today?"

Huang Rong heard this and shot him a reproachful glare:

"In your dreams!"

If Feng Heng had not been present,

given how close the two of them were now, it wouldn't have mattered.

But with Feng Heng there,

Huang Rong would certainly try to avoid it.

Feng Heng ate another meal that tasted of nothing.

After all, Gu Gu Hanyuan hadn't lifted a finger the entire time.

It was all Huang Rong feeding him.

That intimate posture was too much of a sting to her eyes.

Huang Rong watched Feng Heng flee in disarray.

Teasingly asked:

"Aren't you going to chase after her, husband?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan replied with a warm smile:

"There's no rush on your mother's side. I promised to spend this half month with you. Think of it as a honeymoon."

Huang Rong, delighted at his words, rewarded him with a long, tender kiss.

For Huang Rong,

no place was as happy as Taohuadao.

She took Gu Gu Hanyuan around Taohuadao, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

At night,

seeing Huang Rong voluntarily lower herself, he asked in surprise:

"Rong'er, what is this?"

Huang Rong sighed softly:

"I've always regretted that I couldn't give my husband the best of myself. It's a pity that only here can belong to you alone."

Gu Gu Hanyuan knew this was a knot in Huang Rong's heart.

He sighed gently:

"Rong'er, you've always been the best in my heart."

On Huang Rong's ravishing face, flushed a rosy hue, a smile bloomed bright as a flower.

With bewitching, silken eyes, she said tenderly:

"Then shouldn't I let myself belong entirely to my husband?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan, hearing this, no longer objected.

Following a cry of pain from Huang Rong.

The night grew ever deeper.
