Chapter 788: Because of Him

Editor: Atlas Studios

Qiao Nian smiled at Gu Zhou and said calmly, "I did marry into the family because of him."

Gu Zhou’s dark eyes darkened, like the dark night sky without any light, bringing endless fear.

Qiao Nian could clearly feel Gu Zhou’s body stiffen. Gu Zhou was exuding a cold aura, and it was getting colder and colder, as if he wanted to freeze her.

Noticing that Gu Zhou was angry, she hurriedly explained, "I didn’t contact him until four years ago. Then, someone gave me a letter. When I opened it and saw the token inside, I realized that it was a letter from Eldest Senior Brother."

"Eldest Senior Brother wanted me to help you treat your illness." As Qiao Nian spoke, she gently tugged at Gu Zhou’s sleeve. "He’s my Eldest Senior Brother. Naturally, I’m willing to help him. However, there are many people around you who are protecting you. I can’t approach you rashly, lest you mistake me for someone with ulterior motives. If you’re unwilling to let me treat your illness, I won’t be able to fulfill Eldest Senior Brother’s request."

Gu Zhou’s expression softened a lot, and the temperature in the air gradually rose.

"A year ago, the Qiao family came to me and asked me to marry you on behalf of Qiao Xin. I thought that if I became your wife, you would be willing to let me treat your illness, so I agreed." Qiao Nian smiled at Gu Zhou and continued, "I haven’t contacted Eldest Senior Brother since. Don’t think too much!"

Gu Zhou lowered his gaze, staring unblinkingly at Qiao Nian. His long eyelashes reflected a row of faint silhouettes.

His dark eyes gradually lit up. He was a little surprised, but also very happy.

Gu Zhou’s thin lips parted slightly. "Really?"

"Of course it’s true. What else could it be?" Qiao Nian reached out and held Gu Zhou’s hand. She tilted her head slightly and asked innocently, "Do you think there’s something else?"

Gu Zhou looked at Qiao Nian with a burning gaze, as if he wanted to see her heart through her eyes.

Gu Zhou’s gaze was too hot for Qiao Nian to handle. She swallowed and looked away uncomfortably, wanting to take the opportunity to leave.

However, Gu Zhou was still holding her waist.

Qiao Nian let go of Gu Zhou’s other hand and tried to push his hand away from her waist, but Gu Zhou’s grip was too strong.

"Um, I have something else to do. I want to go..."

Before Qiao Nian could finish speaking, she heard Gu Zhou’s low voice coming from above her head. "Shouldn’t you be sleeping?"

"There’s no end to your work. You should sleep during bedtime!" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
