The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage novel Chapter 31

Gu Jingze smiled as he looked at her, but he knew that he would break out in a rash if he touched her. This was why he never had the desire to touch her when he saw her. But right at this moment, he still felt uncomfortable all over as if he was about to break out in a rash soon.

His brow furrowed as he looked towards her. "Did you do something to the room? Why do I feel a little uncomfortable?"

Mo Huiling paused before saying, "I... I sprayed a bit of perfume here."

Gu Jingze sighed and looked at her. "Huiling, you could've told me directly that you wanted me to come and see you. But how can you say that you've fallen ill?"

Gu Jingze asked in a calm voice because he had known from the moment he entered that she was feigning illness.

Mo Huiling was shocked, never expecting him to see through her plans. Currently, she was still biting her lip as she said, "I just thought that you didn't want to come and see me, so I..."

Gu Jingze lowered his head only to see that he had indeed broken out in a rash.

When Mo Huiling saw that Gu Jingze was looking around the room with a slight expression of dislike showing on his face, she quickly said, "Let's go out and sit instead."

Luckily, she had chosen a very beautiful nightgown. She got up and adjusted herself gracefully. Gu Jingze looked down her body, finding her dressing overly skimpy, but he made no comment and kept the thought to himself. He smiled at her and walked out.

Gu Jingze knew that Mo Huiling looked very sexy dressed like this. However, perhaps because he knew that he would break out in a rash upon touching her, he still felt no attraction at all despite her being so beautiful.

Seeing as Gu Jingze did not even look at her, Mo Huiling felt slightly disappointed for a moment. However, she got used to it gradually and thought to herself that this was just the way he was anyway. Ever since he fell ill, he could not get aroused from women.

He had no interest in her and he would have no interest in Lin Che either.

She said to Gu Jingze, "Eat something with me before you go back."

Gu Jingze said, "Okay, I didn't eat anything before coming over either."

Upon hearing that Gu Jingze was so anxious when he heard she was ill, Mo Huiling smiled happily. "Alright, I'll get someone to make some steak. You must compensate me at home here with my candlelight dinner."

However, the maid came over and said, "Miss, the power at home has been cut. There's no way to cook anything."

Mo Huiling yelled angrily, "How can this be? Make a call and ask about this. Settle this for me immediately!"

The maid said in a troubled tone, "Miss, this half of the city has no power. They said that it got cut while maintenance works were being conducted on the circuit. They're still rushing to fix it."

Mo Huiling was insufferably angry. How could such an unfortunate thing happen? It was so rare for Gu Jingze to come. They could have eaten dinner together, drank some wine, and if he felt too tired, he could have stayed overnight.

When Mo Huiling thought of how he had a wife living in that house with him, she simply felt uncomfortable letting him go home now.

Gu Jingze said, "Forget it, Huiling. Don't trouble them." He had indeed not eaten and was hungry. After thinking for some time, he said to the maid without further ado, "If there's a solid-fuel stove, just buy some cup noodles for us to eat."

Upon hearing this, the maid stared with widened eyes for quite some time. Mo Huiling did the same. Surprised, she said, "You want to eat cup noodles?" Gu Jingze said, "Yes, Huiling. If you eat cup noodles once in a while, it still tastes pretty good." Thereafter, he said firmly to the maid, "Just go buy some cup noodles for us."

Not daring to neglect his instructions, the maid hurried out.

Mo Huiling looked at Gu Jingze with hesitation. "Why did you suddenly think of eating this?"

Gu Jingze said, "It's really quite nice. Try eating it and you'll know."

Of course, Mo Huiling did not want to eat it. How could people of their status casually eat that kind of junk food?

However, it was difficult for her to reject since Gu Jingze had suggested it.

Soon, she saw the maid return with cup noodles. The maid brought it to the kitchen to prepare it and shortly, its aroma wafted out. It was very pungent and even masked the scent of the expensive perfume on her body. It made her feel even more repulsed.
