<b>Chapter 490</b>


    Gu Zezhi’s thumb lightly caressed her lips, and his gaze shifted inch by inch from her lips to once again meeting her almond-shaped eyes.


    Qin Jiu felt her earlobes burning hot, looking at him looking more and more radiant.


    He stared at her autumn water-like pupils, his voice low and soft, like a gentle spring breeze, and asked, “Qin Jiu, are you willing to marry me?”


    He said this word for word, with his Phoenix eyes under the backlight looking brighter.


    Qin Jiu: “…”


    Qin Jiu was stunned, never expecting that he would ask her this question on the night of their wedding in their bridal chamber.


    Sheughed, it was a bright and clearugh.


    This smile was like the half-awaited buds on the branches that slowly bloomed during the spring breeze in bright spring scenery.


    She whispered, “Cunning fox!”


    These words carry a hint of coquettishness, tenderness, and affection.


    This shady cunning fox chose to ask her this question when theypleted the rituals and all. Did he even give her the chance to refuse?


    Gu Zezhi was always the same Gu Zezhi.


    Looking gentle, but strong.


    Looking reserved but bold.


    Looking observant but rebellious.


    The events that urred over the year since she met him shed past her like antern.


    From Brother Zezhi to Gu Zezhi and now her groom.


    From being vignt to probing each other, to now, she trusts him wholeheartedly.


    Looking back, when she needed him she could always see him right there, like an abyss, like a high mountain stream.


    With him, she could be fearless.


    Qin Jiu’s heart felt warm as if ripples were ripplingyer byyer in her heart…


    She suddenly stood up from the edge of the bed, and under his astonished eyes, kissed his thin lips gently, like a butterfly ying on the petals of a flower.


    She then stepped back again, sat back, looked up at the unmistakable joy reflected in his eyes as if a mischievous child had seeded, and said with a smile.


    “I do!”


    These words were her truest thoughts.


    How fortunate did she meet him in this world?


    Gu Zezhi’s eyes deepened as if the thick night swallowed her up.


    His head bent lower, the scorching breath exhaled from his mouth, and his nose brushed against her cheeks. At this moment, Qin Jiu felt her skin was unusually sensitive and a tingling sensation rushed through her body, eventually gathering in her heart.


    Thump thump thump! Her heartbeat was faster, simr to a drum.


    His face pressed closer and he murmured slowly, “I do too.”


    How fortunate that he met her.


    Gu Zezhi captured her slightly open cherry lips with his, while his hands steadily held the back of her head, and his slender fingers brushed against her ink-like silk hair. His thin lips gently caressed her delicate and soft lips, at first it was gentle and soft until gradually it became strong, sucking, entangling, rolling, and grinding…


    It was as if a leopard who was waiting for his time to strike had finally captured the prey it had coveted for a long time.


    His other arm firmly mped down on her slender waist, leaving her all but immobilized, and only able to mingle her lips and teeth with his.


    Just then, a respectful voice from a woman suddenly came from the outside. “Wangye*, the decree has arrived.”


    (*so from county king I will now use its romanization (of the king) to Wangye.)


    Qin Jiu, whose mind was already in a mess, took a moment to realize what the decree meant. She pushed his strong and hot chest with her hand, unconsciously leading to a low moan between their lips and teeth.


    He nibbled lightly on her delicate lips before retreating, and his breathing was rapid and messy, with a twinkle in those beautiful brows that were not there normally.


    Meanwhile, Qin Jiu’s breathing was far more rapid, panting, and her cherry lips were slightly red and swollen from the kisses, making them look delicate.
