Chapter 330 – “They want you to, ahem, get a divorce.” (1)
The sea breeze with its unique saltiness smell blew into the bedroom.
Even the gauze curtain was brushing up against the bed.
When Gu Shishi woke up and noticed that she was sleeping on the soft bed on her stomach, she was dazed for two minutes.
Nevertheless, her mind was cleared all of a sudden when she heard the reminder from the system.
[Main mission Wedding Night completed!]
[Would you like to apply the reward Bride halo now?]
Gu Shishi blinked.
Any other time, she would have confirmed and went to check out the nature of the halo immediately.
Today, however, she recalled what happened the night before.
She lowered her head, reached out her hand, flipped open the blanket and took a look.
And then... she was stunned.
Her memories came flooding back.
Last night, Huo Sishen put down his tablet, turned the light off, and kissed her.
He didn’t care that she hasn’t showered; she still had makeup on; or that her hair wasn’t washed.
After he had kissed her, he only hugged her and told her softly to go to bed. They could talk about everything else after she had sobered up the next day.
She felt both anxious and a pang of heartache at the time.
He worried that she only wanted to be with him because she was drunk and that her feelings for him wasn’t real.
The boss did not want to take advantage of her.
She, on the other hand, just wanted to have him no matter what. What an animal she was.
Tortured by her own guilty conscience, she was hesitant whether she should make a move on the boss who wasn’t doing anything.
Holding her in his arms, he was a total gentleman who wasn’t touching her anywhere else.
Finally, as she stared at the ceiling in a trance for ten minutes struggling between “giving up” and “continuing”......
She heard deep and smooth breathing from the man next to her. He seemed to have fallen asleep.
She felt defeated immediately and finally decided to give up on the assignment.
Nevertheless, as soon as she had closed her eyes, she started flipping like a pancake and was not able to fall asleep at all.
In her brain, scene after scene of the boss taking care of her, putting up with her, buying gifts for her, and just overall being nice to her starting playing through in her head.....
Finally, when she felt sweet and cheerful and that it would be okay even if she couldn’t conquer the boss tonight, the man hugging her from behind let out a light sigh.
“You really want it that much?”
Gu Shishi could remember how, at that very moment, her entire body, from head to toe, started to burn.
Each and every single pore of hers felt like they were being soaked in boiling water.
The boss’s question made her feel extremely shameful.
Yet, the very next second, she had decided to follow her heart, no, the alcohol, and nodded.
And then, the boss’s strong body was on top of her... ...
“Oh!”
As she recalled what had happened and saw the hickeys on herself, she pulled the blanket over her head.
This was too shameful!
The boss even pretended to be asleep to coax her to go to sleep.
But she refused. She insisted on ahem!
She had alcohol in her last night but she was completely sober now. She felt that should this get recorded into the family stories, she could just die from embarrassment.
Ahem!
[Host, don’t let that get to your head.]
[A thousand-mile-long embankment can be ruined by an ant hill. You still got a long way to go.]
“When, when did I let it get to my head?!”
Gu Shishi’s face blushed as she sat up!
She was feeling shy, alright?
[The wedding, the completion of the ceremony, merely allowed the host to go from an intern prominent family wife to an official one.]
Gu Shishi frowned.
So all those effort she put in only brought her to the starting point?
[Host, marriage need to be maintained over time. Besides, the male lead’s doting for you is not at its max yet. Your life as a prominent family’s wife can come to an end any second.]
Gu Shishi, “... ...”
Nobody like hearing bullsh*t like “Be careful, you just might get a divorce later on” on the day after their wedding.
[I know this is not what you want to hear right now, but the host must keep in mind that your husband is not the same as everyone else. He has yet to get over his mental issue.]
[It is not over until he could fully trust you, trust himself, and believe the two of you belong together.]
Gu Shishi lifted her brows.
She glanced over at the fondness indication in the system.
The glance startled her.
As much as the system was managing her expectation and telling her to not let her guard down, “Doting of the Male Lead” and “Acknowledgement from Others” had both gone up an entire level yesterday.
The first one to LV6 and the latter, LV5.
Her maximum life had reached 60 days overnight!
Getting married was so awesome!
Gu Shishi was so happy that she couldn’t even keep her mouth closed
