The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

Chapter 33 Who Gave Him the Confidence?

He actually returned to Sixiang Garden.

He and Lin Qingran had been at odds for three years, but now he has returned to Sixiang Garden.

How could Lin Xiaoruo swallow this insult?

Yan Sui calmly glanced at Lin Xiaoruo, who had a slightly angry expression, in the rearview mirror, then drove steadily to the entrance of Lanting International.

He knew that Lin Xiaoruo was no longer the simple and humble girl he knew.

......

Gu Moxuan returned to Sixiang Garden, where the room was very cold and quiet, without a trace of warmth.

He took off his shoes and put on slippers, then went inside, only to see Wang Ma standing a short distance away, holding a broom and looking wary.

Wang Ma had just finished packing everything and was about to go to rest when she heard someone opening the door.

Only she and Lin Qingran have lived here all this time, and Gu Moxuan rarely comes over at night.

Or they come and leave very early.

It was almost midnight when the sound of a lock being opened suddenly came from inside. Naturally, Wang Ma was worried that a thief had broken in.

So she then picked up a broom from the side, on guard.

When Wang Ma saw Gu Moxuan walk in, she paused for a moment.

Gu Moxuan was also taken aback for a moment.

"what are you doing?"

His voice was as cold as ever. Wang Ma awkwardly put down the broom in her hand and whispered.

"It turns out it's the son-in-law who's back. I thought a thief had broken into the house."

Gu Moxuan's face immediately darkened.

He was probably the first male homeowner to be mistaken for a thief when he returned home.

He walked to the sofa with a sullen face, sat down, picked up a teacup from the coffee table, and poured himself a glass of water.

I saw a pink cartoon cup on a ceramic teacup, with a cartoon girl printed on it.

"What about her?"

Wang Ma glanced upstairs, then said softly.

"Miss must have been tired today; she fell asleep as soon as she went upstairs."

Gu Moxuan glanced indifferently at Lin Qingran's cartoon water cup, then got up and walked upstairs.

Wang Ma breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from Gu Moxuan's current state, he probably didn't come back to argue with Lin Qingran.

After Gu Moxuan went upstairs, she immediately put away Lin Qingran's cartoon water bottle.

Lin Qingran had previously stated that Gu Moxuan disliked such childish things, so it was not allowed to appear in front of him.

......

After returning home, Lin Qingran was exhausted. The combined physical and mental fatigue caused her to fall asleep as soon as she hit the bed.

She had no idea that Gu Moxuan had returned to Sixiang Garden.

She's always been a light sleeper, so she didn't even notice someone come into the room.

Gu Moxuan entered the bedroom and saw Lin Qingran sleeping lightly under the warm yellow light. His brows furrowed.

Her face is delicate, her skin is smooth, and her face without makeup is not too stunning, but it is the kind of face that is unforgettable.

Those long, beautiful eyes were closed, with long, thick eyelashes covering the lower eyelids, creating a serene atmosphere.

At this moment, Lin Qingran resembled a sleeping beauty, her gentle beauty unlike the lethal force she displayed during the day.

Looking at her serene face, Gu Moxuan's heart suddenly fluttered, and he felt a chill run down his spine.

His steps unconsciously became lighter and slower.

However, he was so focused on looking at her that he knocked the handbag off the clothes rack.

The sound of something hitting the ground was exceptionally loud in the air, and Lin Qingran, who was sleeping, was also awakened by the sudden noise.

In the dim yellow light, she saw the man had walked to the bedside and was instinctively startled, sitting up.

She didn't say anything, but just rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand.

Gu Moxuan saw that she reacted calmly, without the slightest surprise, let alone delight.

He walked to the edge of the bed, sat down, and spoke in a cold voice.

"What, are you disappointed to see it's me?"

Lin Qingran pursed her crimson lips slightly, straightened the blanket, lay down again, and said softly.

"Even if it's you, it's still better than a thief."

She blinked a few times, somewhat unaccustomed to the brightness of the light. Seeing the man sitting on the edge of the bed, with no intention of getting into bed, she pursed her lips.

"Do you want to come up? If you don't, I'm turning off the lights."

Although she didn't know why Gu Moxuan had come over again tonight, she knew that if she accidentally angered him...

Then she'll be the one suffering tonight.

Gu Moxuan didn't make any move, but his gaze remained fixed on her delicate, fair face.

He wanted to say something, but couldn't find any topics to talk about.

The couple has been married for three years, and they have never had a quiet conversation together.

Lin Qingran felt very uncomfortable under his intense gaze, so she turned off the bedside lamp.

"What does the Fourth Madam of the Huo family want with you?"

In the darkness, Gu Moxuan spoke slowly.

Lin Qingran also yawned in the darkness of the demonstration.

"You arrived before we even started talking."

She and the fourth wife of the Huo family had nothing to talk about.

Before they could even begin their conversation, Gu Moxuan and Shen Huai's voices rang out from outside. Unwilling to remain in the private room any longer, she used Gu Moxuan as an excuse to leave.

Throughout the entire process, she and the fourth wife of the Huo family exchanged no more than ten sentences.

What puzzled her most was why the fourth wife of the Huo family had approached her.

She didn't want to have anything to do with her at all.

She rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on, and figured Gu Moxuan shouldn't have any other problems. Just as she was about to close her eyes and go to sleep...

A dark shadow loomed over her, and in the dimly lit room, the man found her soft, red lips with unerring accuracy.

A few specks of moonlight shone through the window, making Gu Moxuan's already tall figure appear even larger.

Lin Qingran was stunned for a few seconds by his passionate kiss.

His mouth carried the subtle, mellow aroma of fine red wine, captivating and enchanting.

This was the first time Lin Qingran had ever seen Gu Moxuan so gentle.

Her heart was pounding, and she was furious.

"Gu Moxuan..."

Lin Qingran spoke slowly, her gaze fixed on the man in the darkness, trying hard to see his expression.

But you can't see anything.

She took a deep breath, gripping the sheets even tighter, and then said calmly.

"Are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else? I'm not Lin Xiaoruo."

Her words carried a hint of helplessness, but in Gu Moxuan's eyes, it was Lin Qingran's way of resisting him.

Gu Moxuan's deep, dark eyes flickered slightly as he gripped Lin Qingran's shoulder with his hand.

"Heh, of course I wouldn't mistake you for someone else. In my eyes, you're nothing more than a substitute for Xiao Ruo."

His words pierced her heart, and her eyes became even clearer.

"Gu Moxuan, are you a coward? Lin Xiaoruo is clearly in Beicheng, but you would rather touch a substitute like me than touch her."

"Or is it that in your eyes, I, as a substitute, have already surpassed the original owner?"

Gu Moxuan's face darkened suddenly, and he unconsciously tightened his grip.

"Who gave you the confidence to think you can surpass Xiao Ruo?"

Lin Qingran's shoulder ached from his grip, and she frowned, but she didn't resist. She spoke casually.

"It's probably my body."
