Chapter 21: Silver Pistol

“President Gu…”

Song Shiyu walked in with a mahogany box. When he saw Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi hugging, he quickly turned around. “Sorry President Gu, I didn’t see anything.”

The instant Qiao Xi heard his voice, she withdrew from Gu Zheng’s embrace.

Feeling the empty embrace, Gu Zheng scoffed in his heart and called out to Song Shiyu, who was about to leave to avoid. He introduced him to Qiao Xi. “He’s Song Shiyu, my assistant. This is Qiao Xi, my wife.”

“Hello, Madam.”

Song Shiyu had heard from his driver, Old Wang, that their young master had gotten married at the Civil Affairs Bureau. He thought that this was President Gu’s way of dealing with Master Gu, but judging from the situation just now…

There was definitely something going on between the two of them. What fake marriage? It was just a cover!

Qiao Xi nodded lightly as a response.

“President Gu, this…”

Song Shiyu weighed the mahogany box in his hand, wondering if he should continue.

Qiao Xi tactfully said, “You guys go ahead, I’ll go upstairs first.”

“You don’t have to.”

Gu Zheng raised his hand to stop her. He took the mahogany box from Song Shiyu’s hand, opened it, and handed it to Qiao Xi. “Didn’t you say you’re bold? Open it and take a look.”

Song Shiyu could not help but stop him. “President Gu, you…”

Gu Zheng ignored him while Qiao Xi was even more direct. She swiftly opened the lock on the mahogany box.

Inside the box that was lined with red velvet cloth was a pistol. The body of the pistol was a rar silver color. It was beautiful and exquisite.

Qiao Xi’s eyes lit up.

It was said that the head of the Gu family was extremely powerful. Indeed, he could even use guns.

Ever since she returned from overseas, she had never touched this sort of thing again. This was because only public officials in the country had the right to hold a firearm. Ordinary people could never touch it.

Gu Zheng kept staring at Qiao Xi’s face, observing even the slightest change in expression on her face. Gu Zheng did not know what a normal woman’s first reaction would be when they saw a pistol, but he knew that it would absolutely not be Qiao Xi’s current expression!

His eyes were bright and filled with eagerness!

Qiao Xi quickly glanced at Gu Zheng. He had handed the pistol to her, but he probably did not mean for her to covet it, right?

When Gu Zheng was not paying attention, she quickly held the gun in her hand and flipped her wrist. Be it its weight or feel, Qiao Xi was very satisfied.

Click.

The sound of the safety catch made Song Shiyu’s face turn pale. He stammered and tried to stop her. “Madam, be careful. This is a real pistol!”

This was not a toy for girls to play around with. It was something that could easily kill someone!

Qiao Xi rolled her eyes. Of course, she knew that this was a real pistol.

Qiao Xi reluctantly touched the body of the pistol before putting it back into the mahogany box. She could not help but praise, “It’s a good pistol!”
