Chapter 43: Chapter 43 On Call

Editor: Atlas Studios

The breakfast was eaten in silence, Gu Qiangwei chewed on her meal, her gaze occasionally lifting to steal glances at the man seated at the head of the table.

And just at that moment, Qin Sijue also looked up, their eyes met, and Gu Qiangwei’s heart fluttered for an instant.

The next second, she hurriedly looked away!

Every time their eyes met, those deep, ink-like eyes of his always made her feel anxious and flustered!

The silent breakfast was thus finished, and glancing at the time, it was already eight o’clock.

Thinking of Qiao Muxue, who must be raging in the company by now, Gu Qiangwei grabbed her bag and prepared to leave.

But just as she was going downstairs, she saw the man sitting upright on the sofa.

Her footsteps halted, and her gaze, as if out of her control, flickered towards him.

Qin Sijue raised his eyes, his imposing gaze falling on her clean and clear face.

He parted his lips slightly and commanded, “Come here.”

Gu Qiangwei had other things to attend to, but remembering that she was now his fake wife and staying here, she walked over to him.

“Here, look at this.”

His narrow eyes swept across the transparent file bag on the coffee table.

“What?”

Qin Sijue remained silent, just staring at her.

That look seemed to say: Can’t you see for yourself?

Pursing her lips, Gu Qiangwei picked up the file bag and through the transparent cover, she saw several bold letters: Marital Agreement.

Once again, she looked up, puzzled, at the man.

Even in a fake marriage, there was a marital agreement?

She flipped open the agreement and her clear, beautiful eyes scanned every word on it.

During the agreement period, she was not allowed to be out all night, and must return to Jueyuan by nine in the evening, otherwise it would be considered infidelity!?

Reading the contents of the agreement, Gu Qiangwei’s eyes widened. It was just a sham marriage, was there really a need to be so serious about it?

“By the way, starting from today, there will be a curfew at Jueyuan,” he added.

Looking up, he gazed at the woman opposite him with a sovereign’s authoritative eyes, asserting his dominion.

“A curfew?” Gu Qiangwei frowned.

Even Qin Si, who had just walked from the back yard, was somewhat stunned to hear this.

“Yes, you must return here by nine o’clock. Otherwise… you know the consequences.”

“…”

Looking at the man before her, who conducted himself as if he was above everything, Gu Qiangwei blurted out, “It’s only a fake—”

Footsteps approached, and Gu Qiangwei turned to see Qin Si walking over, causing her to promptly close her mouth.

“What if I have to work overtime and it’s past nine in the evening?” According to Qiao Muxue’s usual difficulties with her, working late was commonplace.

“That’s your problem.”

“…” Her mouth said it was her problem, but wasn’t the curfew still imposed by him?

Gu Qiangwei felt that the curfew rule could be ignored. She couldn’t believe that a man like him would actually come back before nine in the evening!

So, she decided it was best to just listen.

Therefore, she continued reading the document.

Within the 24-hour agreement period, whenever he needed her, she must be at his beck and call!? What was this now?

It was supposed to be just a fake marriage, taking what they needed from it, but why did she feel like she had sold herself?

“What do you mean by ‘at your beck and call’?”

Qin Sijue looked up, sweeping a glance at Qin Si beside them.

Upon catching his gaze, Qin Si immediately understood, nodded respectfully, and quickly left the room.

Only when the living room was left with just the two of them did Qin Sijue speak, with a voice so low and seductive it was mesmerizing.

“It means that whenever the identity of ‘Mrs. Qin’ is needed, you must be available. Of course, if you need this ‘husband’ of yours, it applies as well.”
