Once our contract expired, I filed for divorce without hesitation. Gu Xubai tore up the agreement. “I don't agree.”
As I stood there, confused, I suddenly heard the panicked thoughts beneath his icy exterior:
[Is she serious?! Grab her! Get on your knees if you have to!]
From then on, the cold, ruthless tycoon everyone talked about completely lost his composure around me.
Out loud: “Stay away from me.”
In his head: [Come cuddle with me, wife!]
Out loud: “It has nothing to do with her.”
In his head: [Who dares lay a finger on my wife?!]
I relied on my mind-reading cheat to stay cool and in control, until one day, my ability suddenly disappeared.
Then, in the utter silence, he walked toward me, his gaze deep and shadowed. “Now it's your turn to hear my heartbeat. It's been shouting that it loves you for a long time.”
