Chapter 1296: I Was Drugged with More Than One Medicine
Xia Yinian was deliberately mad at him, simply because Gu Beicheng hadn’t asked her opinion and had just forced the poison out of his body on his own.
He knew this method, which proved how capable he was, but she just couldn’t stand him hurting himself like that.
"Bully my wife? I wouldn’t dare." Gu Beicheng’s attractive thin lips hooked up slightly.
Xia Yinian had never denied it: this man was a born seducer. Even with an IV drip in him, he could still look devastatingly handsome.
Only God knew what it felt like to have a boyfriend like this. Yet somehow, she really had one.
Xia Yinian wasn’t sure if saying things like this out loud would get her beaten up by a mob, because it did sound extremely punchable.
"Wife, my lips are a bit dry." Gu Beicheng turned his head, looking like a well‑behaved baby.
Staring at his thin lips, Xia Yinian unconsciously licked her own, practically dying to lower her head and kiss him.
How could this guy be this handsome and then match it with that expression? Was he trying to lure her into committing a crime?
In the end, rationality kept her from letting her imagination run wild.
"Wait a sec..."
"Can’t wait."
Xia Yinian had planned to go pour him some water, but before she finished speaking, she was yanked straight back.
She had just turned when her body was pulled hard, sending her crashing into him.
Xia Yinian propped herself up with her hands, but still couldn’t fight against his strength; her forehead was practically pressed to his.
Their eyes met. Looking at his thin lips as he lightly pressed them together, the fire that had just flared up in Xia Yinian instantly got doused.
The pallor from before had faded; now Seventh Young Master’s lips weren’t all that red, but they were undeniably sexy.
The pale skin all around made his thin lips look even more striking.
"Wife."
What Gu Beicheng loved most was seeing her exactly like this.
Even when the little girl was in a daze over his looks, she was especially charming and cute; she really made him love her so much he couldn’t bear to let go.
He called to her softly, then pressed down a little more, and Xia Yinian’s soft pink lips landed right on his thin lips.
A dragonfly‑light kiss like that did nothing to ease the desire burning in someone’s heart—in Yinian’s case, it only made that feeling grow stronger and stronger.
After that brief kiss, Gu Beicheng slightly parted his lips and closed them over Xia Yinian’s tender ones.
"Now... it... feels... a bit better." In the lingering kiss, broken words spilled from the man’s thin lips.
After being kissed for a while, Xia Yinian finally snapped out of it.
She forced down the messy thoughts in her heart and gave his arm a push.
"Don’t! Mm... don’t do this, you’re still... on a drip."
The man didn’t want to let her go, and she wasn’t breaking free that easily either.
"Gu Beicheng... enough, stop it!" Xia Yinian felt a bit stifled inside.
This guy always refused to cherish his own body, but she cared. Why couldn’t he get that?
Not wanting to piss his wife off, the man withdrew the hand around her back, but still kept holding her hand.
"Wife, see for yourself." Gu Beicheng tugged Xia Yinian’s hand, guiding her gaze downward.
Following his line of sight down, Xia Yinian couldn’t help being stunned for a second.
At a time like this, he actually still...
"I didn’t do it on purpose. I wasn’t just given one kind of medicine. When the blood test results come out, you should be able to understand."
The man pressed his lips together, looking a little aggrieved.
Xia Yinian could pretty much guess that Yu Wanqing definitely would’ve given him this kind of medicine. Her motive had always been obvious. Damn it!
Being handsome wasn’t necessarily a good thing; there was always the risk of being drugged and raped any time, which really wasn’t a good thing at all!
But was this guy really that wronged? Besides, the IV he was on now should also have a relieving effect, shouldn’t it?
