100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 172 You are my wife
Chapter 172: Chapter 172 You are my wife
"Gu Hangshen, thank you for celebrating my birthday with me."
Late at night, Gong Xiaoqiao lay in bed with her back to him, her head full of tangled thoughts.
She finally understood what Gu Hangshen meant by his words in the morning!
The bigger bed allowed her to escape in her sleep, to keep a distance from him.
But now, Gu Hangshen had actually replaced it with a bed half its original size; if she moved even slightly to the edge, she would accidentally roll off, so she had to sleep pressed tightly against him.
"You are my wife," Gu Hangshen responded.
Gong Xiaoqiao: "Still, thank you."
Gu Hangshen: "You wouldn’t let me pick you up, so I bought you a MINI as a birthday present, I’ll teach you how to drive when you have time."
Gong Xiaoqiao: "Thank you."
Gu Hangshen felt somewhat gloomy. He had wanted to celebrate her birthday alone with her, but everyone had come to join in the fun, and he had hoped to spend the evening with her, but she didn’t arrive until the last ten minutes.
Now she was giving him the cold shoulder because she had announced their marriage to everyone tonight.
Even though she didn’t say anything, not a single word of complaint against him, he knew she was unhappy.
He would rather she made a fuss with him than be like this.
In the quiet night, they shared a bed, but their dreams were different.

Life went on very calmly. The two had just married, and there wasn’t a ripple on the surface, only undercurrents swirling beneath.
No matter what he did for her, she always stayed within her own world, maintaining a safe distance from him, treating him like a virus to be shunned and guarded against.
He felt tired. This kind of waiting, where much is invested yet not even a splash or a ripple can be seen, was too painful and hopeless.
If marriage only pushed her further away, he would prefer to keep things as they were.
At least when he was her brother, she would act spoiled and be wilful with him.
But now, she isolated him completely with her cold indifference.
When he saw how she brutally took her revenge on Qin Yao, he should have known then. The child who seemed so naive and clumsy was, when resolved, crueler and more decisive than anyone else.
The cruelest people are not only cruel to others, but to themselves as well.
Didn’t she feel pain when she hurt Qin Yao?
So when she pushed him away, did she suffer too?
The tighter she wrapped herself up, the less he could see into her heart...
...
Charm Bar.
"Big brother finally married Little Fox, but he doesn’t seem happy at all!" Shen Letian glanced at Gu Hangshen, who was relentlessly drowning his sorrows in drink not far away.
"Xiaoqiao probably married him for her grandfather’s sake. She herself didn’t want to. These days brother has been late for work and leaves early to please her at home. He’s never gone out clubbing all night like this. It seems the situation between the two has deteriorated again..." Sheng Yu mused aloud.
While a few of them were discussing this, Tang Yu, with a keen eye, spotted a woman approaching Gu Hangshen.
There’s someone in Charm Bar who dares to mess with Gu Hangshen?
After watching for a long time, Tang Yu finally recognized her. "Isn’t that Gong Hannian?"
Shen Letian immediately stood up.
"What are you doing?" Leng Tou held him back.
Shen Letian instantly said, "Of course I’m going to stop her. That woman won’t approach brother for any good reason."
Leng Tou: "Not necessarily. Let’s wait and see."
Shen Letian: "Wait and see my ass! She’s about to seduce brother and take him for all he’s worth! He’s a family man now!"
Leng Tou: "Don’t meddle in other people’s family affairs."
Tang Yu blinked and nodded in agreement.
Shen Letian: "..."
