Chapter 1697: Marry Me, Please? (Part Twenty-seven)

In the homestay halfway up the mountain, the two children were fast asleep. Ye Yuwei was still pacing around the room.

In his return, Gu Juexi brought along the snowstorm with him.

Knock knock knock—

Ye Yuwei froze because of the knocking and asked who it was.

“Me,” Gu Juexi said in a low voice.

Ye Yuwei hurriedly opened the door and asked anxiously, “How’s Mo Fei? Is she alright?”

Gu Juexi closed the door after he entered. He took off his coat and threw it on the bed. Then, he reached out and hugged Ye Yuwei. “You don’t care about your husband. Must you be concerned about someone else over your husband?”

Ye Yuwei was rendered speechless. “…”

Since when an almighty presence like him required anyone’s concern?

“I’m serious.” Ye Yuwei nudged Gu Juexi and rejected his hug.

Getting pushed away, Gu Juexi looked at the bed in disdain. Ye Yuwei hurriedly said, “The bedsheets. I brought them. They’re from home.”

Since Ye Yuwei was familiar with Gu Juexi’s horrible habits, she would always bring her own bedsheets and blankets when they went anywhere below a five-star hotel.

Gu Juexi was satisfied. He sat down on the bed and pulled Ye Yuwei onto his lap. “Qian Yikun’s back.”

“Eh?” Ye Yuwei turned around and put her arms around his neck.” So? Is Big Brother Qian with Mo Fei now?”

Every time Gu Juexi heard the name Big Brother Qian, he wanted to give his wife a hard knock on the head. Was this woman deliberately trying to anger him?

“There is no danger at the moment, so you don’t have to worry.” Gu Yuexi said as he planted a kiss on Ye Yuwei’s cheek. Then, he frowned as he held her hand. “Cold?”

Ye Yuwei shook her head. It was not because she was cold—it was because she was worried.

Meanwhile, Mo Fei had fallen asleep in the forest rangers’ dormitory.

Qian Yikun sat by the bed and looked at the woman who was fast asleep. Her face was still pale. The look as she slept sent jabs of pain in Qian Yikun’s heart.

Qian Yikun admitted that his heart really ached for her. During this period of time, his heart would ache a little every time he managed to investigate something. His heartache was wholly caused by this woman who he had been wanting to capture.

When they first met, to stop him from arresting her, she did not hesitate to manipulate her beauty and even s.n.a.t.c.hed his first kiss.

[On a chaotic street in a certain country, gunshots continued one after another.

Qian Yikun chased after the pretty little figure in front of him. He saw the little girl who had just killed someone. She was fast, but he was even faster. He forced her into a corner.

The girl turned around, and there was an angelic smile on her cherubic face.

At that moment, Qian Yikun knew that he was facing a demon. Her smile? It was as addictive and abhorred as opium.
