Back to the Past: The Rise of the False Heiress Marrying the True Tycoon

Chapter 122-126

Chapter 122. Worried

Gu Zi was a little upset because of Su Shen's disregard for consequences.

Resolute in her decision to remain silent, she fetched some medicine upon noticing his injury had slightly split open and proceeded to apply it to him.

Su Shen was aware that Gu Zi was displeased, yet if this situation were to repeat itself, he would still act the same.

Su Shen watched as she applied the medicine on him. Her long hair cascaded like seaweed down her shoulders to her waist.

Gu Zi possessed the curves that men adored — a slender waist and shapely, round buttocks.

Her breasts were in the shape of water droplets that aroused a heated response. He saw that she wasn't wearing any underwear that night.

Sensing the increasing intensity of the man's gaze, Gu Zi fought to mask the desire in her eyes.

In Gu Zi's view, he appeared angry, but she couldn't quite grasp the reason behind it.

Her annoyance translated into added force in her hands, causing a slight frown and a sheen of cold sweat on his forehead.

He heard Gu Zi say, "You're tough. Endure the pain; don't shout out in pain."

Speaking of which, she didn't know how to conclude this matter. Breaking someone's leg was probably not a trivial matter.

Regardless, this situation arose because of her, and she didn't want Su Shen to go to jail because of her.

Su Shen's expression was grim, his eyes harboring a dark hostility. He retorted coldly, "Don't bother."

Upon hearing this, Gu Zi truly felt upset. What did he mean by telling her not to bother?

They were on the verge of getting their marriage certificate, and now she wasn't allowed to be concerned?

"Fine, I won't bother. Boss Su knows best." With that, she turned to go upstairs, but suddenly, her wrist was grabbed by him.

He exerted a little strength and Gu Zi was pulled towards him. She spread her legs and sat on his lap.

Certain parts of their bodies were closely pressed together; the posture was as ambiguous as it could be.

In just a few seconds, the man's body temperature caused Gu Zi to tremble slightly.

His hand rested on her lower back, enveloping her entirely. It felt like a more intimate embrace.

His chin nestled on her shoulder, his breath as hot as fire, almost scorching her.

In a hoarse voice, he explained, "That's not what I meant. I'll handle it,"

Gu Zi was genuinely too worried. Now, upon hearing his explanation, she was no longer angry.

Nestling into his arms, she softly said, "Su Shen, you said we were going to register our marriage. I don't want anything to happen to you. You can't go to jail."

So, she was worried about him going to jail. This woman was truly adorable!

Su Shen's anger had also subsided a lot. His eyes returned to their usual darkness as he gently reassured her, "No, I will marry you."

It was perhaps due to their honest confirmation of their relationship as lovers that they felt much closer to each other.

"You'd better live up to your words. I can't offer you nourishment for nothing," Gu Zi remarked.

Su Shen was speechless. Their moment of tenderness was derailed by this sentence.

Only then did Gu Zi realize she had inadvertently shared half of what was in her heart!
