Chapter 1048: You... Have a Nosebleed
Gu Lingqian stared with wide eyes, his gaze slowly moving downwards.From her palm-sized face to her exquisitely delicate collarbone.
Then to the faintly visible cleavage, her perfect chest, her delicate slender waist, her appropriately shaped hips, her long, beautiful legs...
Before he could even speak, a rush of hot breath suddenly flowed down from his nose.
Xia Yinian was startled, her big round eyes blinking at him, almost speechless.
"Brother Ling Qian, you... have a nosebleed."
Gu Lingqian blinked, only then realizing his loss of composure.
He cleared his throat, tossed out a sentence, and turned to walk into the bathroom.
"Wait for me a moment."
Soon, the sound of rushing water came from the bathroom.
Xia Yinian blinked, finally reacting, sighed, and sat down on a nearby sofa.
Seems like she dressed too provocatively, unexpectedly causing trouble for Brother Ling Qian.
Him suddenly having a nosebleed, wouldn’t it make him even more agitated?
At his age, with no woman by his side, it really seems to be a bit inconvenient.
Even if he doesn’t need it psychologically, he needs it physiologically, right?
As expected, Xia Yinian waited a full ten minutes, and the person inside still hadn’t come out, so it’s clearly not as simple as just wiping a nosebleed.
The water sound continued to rush, seemingly to cover up some kind of sound.
Xia Yinian bit her lip, stood up, and once again walked into the dressing room.
But after looking around, she still couldn’t find anything satisfactory.
For such a grand party tonight, does she have to wear one of her own dresses? That’s obviously impossible.
If it were just her own issue, she could casually wear something and find a quiet place to sit.
But as Brother Ling Qian’s fiancée, she certainly couldn’t let him lose face.
Thinking of herself as Brother Ling Qian’s fiancée, yet always making him handle things himself, Xia Yinian felt truly ashamed.
But, what could she do? When it comes to love, nobody can say how it should be.
Brother Ling Qian can’t change it, and neither can she?
With so many evening dresses but none suitable, Xia Yinian sighed lightly, leaning against the wardrobe, looking forlorn.
A few minutes later, a man in a suit walked in.
"What’s the matter?" Gu Lingqian asked softly.
Besides his voice, he didn’t seem any different, still dashing, gentlemanly, as if nothing had happened earlier.
"So soon?" The words just slipped out, and Xia Yinian felt a bit regretful about her directness.
She made a funny face at him, stood up, faced the wardrobe, a bit embarrassed to look at him.
Gu Lingqian slightly curved his lips, taking two steps closer.
He stopped right before nearly pressing against Xia Yinian’s perfect back.
Looking at this playful little one, he really wanted to pin her down right then and there.
"Want to get serious? I guarantee you’ll be satisfied!"
Smelling her fragrance, the fire he’d just extinguished was rapidly reigniting.
Maybe, in the next second, he wouldn’t be able to hold back anymore.
Feeling the hot breath burning her back, Xia Yinian sidestepped, dodging his approach.
"No!" She stepped back a few steps before meeting his gaze.
"I mean... of course, quicker is better, uh... a nosebleed, if it lasts too long, you could lose too much blood."
"Excessive blood loss affects health, not good..."
Forcing a little laughter, Xia Yinian’s gaze locked onto the wardrobe full of evening dresses.
