Dominant Marriage: The CEO's Overbearing Love

Chapter 244 - 222: You Are Mine In This Lifetime, Anyone Who Objects Is Useless

Gu Qimiao looked at Liang Zixuan standing by the door, her gaze carrying a hint of wary hostility.Liang Zixuan peeked inside the room, "Shen Yanchen isn’t here?"

"My husband is taking a shower."

Liang Zixuan turned her gaze to Gu Qimiao, a contemptuous smile on her lips, "Do you really think you have something to brag about now?"

"Whether I brag or not doesn’t change the fact that I am his wife and he loves me very much." She knew it was a woman’s jealousy. Such an excellent man as Shen Yanchen being won over by her, even she felt extraordinarily lucky.

Liang Zixuan wasn’t the only one who was jealous of her status, but now being Shen Yanchen’s wife, she had to use her own abilities to guard this identity, not allowing anyone to covet it!

Liang Zixuan’s expression didn’t change much. She laughed and leaned close to Gu Qimiao’s ear, whispering, "I suppose... they still don’t know about your illness, do they?"

Gu Qimiao’s expression froze, then she quickly masked her guilt, saying confidently, "Stop being so clever, Yanchen knows everything, he has known for a long time!"

But his family didn’t know. When they got married, it was just for the company. Gu Qimiao had thought about divorcing, so she didn’t give it much thought then.

Thinking about whether his family would want them to divorce if they found out she had a strange illness?

She had enough confidence in Shen Yanchen, but not in his family.

He was from a prominent family, his grandmother always wanted to find a wife of equal status for him. If it weren’t for his insistence on marrying her, she wouldn’t have the status of Mrs. Shen.

What if his grandmother disapproved in the future and wanted him to divorce? What should she do then?

She didn’t want to make things difficult for him, but at that time, it would force him to make a choice...

"In that case, I guess I was being nosy. I’ve heard... your illness could be hereditary. I wonder what his grandmother would think if she knew."

Gu Qimiao no longer showed weakness. Liang Zixuan didn’t say much more, only leaving as if giving her a reminder.

Actually, even if Liang Zixuan didn’t bring it up, they would have to face it sooner or later.

His grandmother was already urging them to have children, so it might be better to tell her before that happens.

If their child was born and unfortunately inherited her illness, it would be worse if his grandmother found out then...

"What are you daydreaming about? Go shower quickly."

Gu Qimiao snapped out of her thoughts from the night view outside the window and turned to look at Shen Yanchen.

Shen Yanchen was wiping his hair with a towel. Seeing her heavy-hearted expression, he walked over and, before he could ask, she wordlessly plunged into his arms, hugging him tightly.

"What’s wrong?" Shen Yanchen asked with a light laugh, this kind of proactive embrace didn’t seem like her style.

"Just want to hug," she said muffled, buried in his chest.

Shen Yanchen casually threw the towel onto the bed, looking down at her, then picked her up horizontally and walked towards the bathroom, "Clean up and I’ll hug you."

"Are you disgusted by me?"

Shen Yanchen didn’t respond immediately, he threw her into the bathroom, turned on the shower, drenching both of their clothes. His freshly changed robe was soaked, and Gu Qimiao was drenched to the point she couldn’t open her eyes. She tried to escape to the side, but Shen Yanchen pressed her against the wall under the shower, stripping her clothes while saying, "I didn’t expect you to be so eager."

Gu Qimiao wiped the water off her face, feeling like it had entered her nose, making her gasp. Unexpectedly, it gave Shen Yanchen an opportunity, his lips and tongue blocked her breath immediately.

Her eyes were blurred by the warm water from the shower, her eyelashes wet and clumped together, making them seem thicker.

With their clothes half off, their body temperatures blended in the water, [ambiguous] feelings dissipated in the water, everything was unreal in the mist.

"Cough, cough..." As he moved his mouth away, Gu Qimiao turned her head and coughed violently, hitting his chest in annoyance and pushing him away slightly. She choked out, "I’ll shower first..."

He tore off her clothes with his large hand, taking advantage while saying, "Shower? I don’t mind you."

Gu Qimiao didn’t expect him to be so vengeful. She was feeling overwhelmingly uncomfortable being drenched with water, her hands flailing behind her aimlessly until she finally turned off the water.

Without the sound of water covering it, [ambiguous] heavy breaths echoed in their ears.

His movements did not stop with the water flow’s cessation, he pushed her step by step into the bathtub, and with a splash, a large amount of water spilled onto the floor.

Gu Qimiao’s strength was entirely at his mercy. When she fell, even though she knew she wouldn’t feel pain, he still protected her head with his hand, preventing her from hitting the bathtub.

Deliberately dipping her into the water before pulling her up, taking advantage of her gasping from the water to touch her all over...

"Ugh..."

"Does it feel good?"

"No! Get out!"

Shen Yanchen thrust powerfully in retaliation, holding her tightly and asking, "How about now? Does it feel good?"

Gu Qimiao bit her lip, holding tightly to his neck to prevent herself from being submerged in the water.

She didn’t know how long he tormented her, only that the water in the bathtub had turned cold, yet he continued.

In a daze, she felt herself being soaked in warm water, leaning weakly in his arms.

"Miaomiao?"

Gu Qimiao lazily opened her eyes, seeing him smiling contentedly, he wrapped her in a towel and carried her out of the water, throwing her onto the bed.

He rummaged for a while, found a hairdryer, and dried her hair. Gu Qimiao was so comfortable she nearly fell asleep, awakened by his pat on the face.

"What?" She lazily opened her eyes, hoarsely asking.

He smiled gently against the light, "Wait for me to sleep together."

Then he put away the hairdryer, turned off the room lights, climbed into bed, and pulled her into his arms.

Gu Qimiao remembered Liang Zixuan’s words, becoming more alert. She turned to face him, her gaze fixed on his face.

Shen Yanchen saw her eyes shining in the dark, kissed her gently, feeling her eyelashes brush against his lips, a [tingling] sensation.

"Am I that good-looking?"

She pouted, burying her head in his chest, softly asking, "What if your grandmother never accepts me and wants me to divorce you, what will you do?"

He lightly slapped her forehead, "What nonsense are you talking about at this hour? Did I just make you foolish?"

"I’m serious!"

He tightened his embrace, holding her more firmly, "Then I’ll tell you seriously too, even if you want a divorce, it’s out of the question, let alone anyone else. You’re mine for life, no one can change that, understood?"

Hearing his words, Gu Qimiao felt reassured, "But my illness... what if your family can’t accept it?"
