The Reluctant Bride Book II Chapter 40

Qiao Tan Yuan forgot about the towel.

After Qiao Tan Yuan pointed at the door she remembered she wore nothing under the towel, because the towel fell on the floor. She thought she was safe in her locked bedroom, and no one would walk into her bedroom. So she only wrapped a towel loosely around her body, and didn’t change clothes in the bathroom.

Gu Jiao Wu thought Qiao Tan Yuan looked like Venus from the Birth of Venus painting. He held her hands before she could pick up the fallen towel.

Gu Jiao Wu looked into Qiao Tan Yuan’s eyes, and felt like time stood still for them. He only held her hands gently, but she was too flustered to push him away.

Qiao Tan Yuan knew she had a beautiful body. But after giving birth to Xiao Bao, there were baby fat on her thighs and waist. She felt self-conscious about her body, and quickly looked away from Gu Jiao Wu’s eyes. She didn’t have baby fat on her body before she was pregnant, but she couldn’t entice Gu Jiao Wu’s interest.

Qiao Tan Yuan thinking about how her body would repulse Gu Jiao Wu like in the past made her body insecurities disappear. She pushed him away, picked up the towel and wrapped it around her body.

‘Gu Jiao Wu, this is the Qiao’s residence,’ Qiao Tan Yuan said. ‘I want you to leave my bedroom.’

Gu Jiao Wu stood still and stared at Qiao Tan Yuan’s body. She rewrapped the towel tightly around her body, but it outlined the contours of her body even more. He thought about their kisses, and it enhanced his desire for her.

‘If you don’t leave, I’ll call the cops,’ Qiao Tan Yuan said.

Qiao Tan Yuan didn’t believe in idle threats. She stepped to the bed and picked up her phone. But Gu Jiao Wu grabbed her phone from behind her.

Qiao Tan Yuan turned around. Gu Jiao Wu was holding the phone in the air. She jumped up and was angry she couldn’t reach the phone. She wasn’t prepared for him to throw the phone on the bed, and grabbed hold of his shirt to stop herself from falling.

‘Ah…’ Qiao Tan Yuan cried out.

Qiao Tan Yuan fell back on the bed, and Gu Jiao Wu fell on top of her because she was holding onto his shirt.

Gu Jiao Wu propped his hands on the bed, and eased his body pressure off Qiao Tan Yuan’s body. Their noses were touching, and he felt her warm breath on his lips. She widened her eyes, still startled from the sudden fall.

The lust in Gu Jiao Wu’s eyes startled Qiao Tan Yuan more than falling onto the bed. Her hands were still holding onto his shirt. She let go of his shirt to push him away. But his lips kissed her lips unannounced again. She couldn’t believe it was the third time he kissed her. Why did he want to kiss her?

Qiao Tan Yuan felt Gu Jiao Wu kissed her differently to the last two times he kissed her. He kissed her rougher like he lost control. Her body was trapped between his body and the bed. The distance between their bodies were as close as their joined tongues. She didn’t want to give into her desire, but she felt her body becoming hotter. One of his hands held her hands above her head so she couldn’t push him away. His other hand pulled the towel off her body. She moved her hands to slap him, but his hold on her hands tightened. His lips released her lips, and trailed down to her breasts. Having someone suckled her breasts wasn’t different to Xiao Bao drinking her breast milk.

Gu Jiao Wu licked the sweet breast milk off Qiao Tan Yuan’s nipples. He thought her natural body scent was arousing and addictive. He was a man. After a long drought if he wasted an opportunity to taste a woman’s body that aroused his senses then he wasn’t a straight man. His hand moved down closer to Venus’ hidden treasure.

Gu Jiao Wu’s soft lips and tongue on Qiao Tan Yuan’s breasts returned her senses. His free hand moved down her body. What was he doing? She couldn’t move her hands, but it didn’t mean she couldn’t move her legs. She used all her leg strengths and kneed him between his legs.

Gu Jiao Wu’s body rolled off Qiao Tan Yuan’s body. He laid on the bed in excruciating pain.

Qiao Tan Yuan sat up on the bed, and wrapped the towel securely around her body.

‘Gu Jiao Wu, you AH,’ Qiao Tan Yuan cursed.

Qiao Tan Yuan thought of many crude names for Gu Jiao Wu. What was she in his eyes? His personal prostitute? Did he think he could use her body anytime he had an itch? She stood, pulled out a drawer, grabbed clothes and dressed faster than her ability to calm her anger.

‘Gu Jiao Wu, if you step into the Qiao’s residence again, I won’t be lenient on you next time,’ Qiao Tan Yuan warned.

Qiao Tan Yuan was going to hire two bodyguards in the morning. If Gu Jiao Wu dared to step through the Qiao Mansion front gates, the bodyguards would kick him to hell.

Gu Jiao Wu was a man, and he wasn’t immune to the pain after being kicked between his legs. If he wasn’t on the bed then he would be rolling around on the floor.

Gu Jiao Wu slowly got out of bed, and stood in front of Qiao Tan Yuan in pain.

‘Qiao Tan Yuan, what are you doing?’ Gu Jiao Wu asked.

Gu Jiao Wu didn’t feel lucky Qiao Tan Yuan was a woman who kicked him instead of a man. Did she want to turn him into a eunuch?

Qiao Tan Yuan scoffed. ‘I should be the one asking you what are you doing.’ She wasn’t scared of Gu Jiao Wu anymore. ‘Why are you so free to run around, and come to the Qiao’s residence?’

Qiao Tan Yuan suspected Gu Jiao Wu drove to her home, because he thought she would sleep with him if he was in the mood. She wouldn’t let herself be flustered thinking about what he was doing to her body before. She wanted to move on with her life. Being with him would be taking a step back.

‘Qiao Tan Yuan, I came here to visit Xiao Bao,’ Gu Jiao Wu said.

Gu Jiao Wu thought Qiao Tan Yuan knew how to frustrate him to death.

‘You don’t need to,’ Qiao Tan Yuan said. She thought Gu Jiao Wu would either come to her home to steal Xiao Bao or to get her to satisfy him in bed if he was in the mood. ‘Xiao Bao doesn’t love you. If you don’t visit her, she’s even happier.’

‘Qiao Tan Yuan, is that why you want to take Xiao Bao to Denmark?’ Gu Jiao Wu asked. ‘Because you don’t want me to visit Xiao Bao?’

Qiao Tan Yuan looked at the opened documents on the coffee table, and knew Gu Jiao Wu must have read the documents.

‘I’m going on a holiday to Denmark,’ Qiao Tan Yuan said. ‘Why can’t I take Xiao Bao with me on a holiday?’

‘Holiday?’ Gu Jiao Wu asked. ‘Do you think I’m an idiot? If you want to take Xiao Bao on a holiday then why do you need to look at childcare applications in Denmark?’

‘So what if I want to live in Denmark with Xiao Bao?’ Qiao Tan Yuan asked. ‘It’s a good place to raise Xiao Bao.’

‘Don’t make excuses,’ Gu Jiao Wu said. ‘You only want to separate me and Xiao Bao.’

‘So what if I don’t want you to see Xiao Bao?’ Qiao Tan Yuan asked. ‘Xiao Bao is my daughter. I have to right to choose where to raise her.’

‘Xiao Bao is my daughter too,’ Gu Jiao Wu said. He grabbed Qiao Tan Yuan’s arm. ‘You don’t have the right to decide Xiao Bao’s future on your own.’
