After Transmigration, She Sold Herself to a Man as a Wife

Chapter 127

Late at night.

After parting ways with Wang Sister-In-Law and her family, it was already late into the night by the time Gu Jinchen returned.

Afraid of chilling Luo Ge his wife, Gu Jinchen first washed away the night mist and cold air from his body, using hot water to warm himself up before daring to slip into the bed.

But even with his lightest movements, the lightly sleeping Luo Ge was still awakened.

"You're back," she said, opening her eyes to see him, instinctively nestling into his familiar embrace.

This little cat-like action made one's heart itch, and Gu Jinchen took a deep breath, his voice husky as he responded.

"Did I wake you?"

Luo Ge shook her head, "No."

Then, after a moment's hesitation, she tilted her head up to look at him and softly said, "I couldn't sleep well without you here. I was waiting for you."

It was rare for her to express herself so directly, and she felt a little uneasy, which is why she hesitated when speaking.

How to put it? It felt like the warm, safe stove was missing, and she couldn't sleep well.

And to the ears of the vigorous man who had been holding back for so long, these words were like a bright, tantalizing tug at his heartstrings.

Upon hearing this, Gu Jinchen took another deep breath, his slender fingers tapping her head, his large palm pulling her closer.

"You little tease, are you trying to tempt me since I can't take advantage of you?"

Although he had consulted with the doctor and learned that it was appropriate for some intimacy at this time.

But he was still afraid of rashly harming his little wife and child, so he had been holding back all this while.

Luo Ge didn't mean it that way initially, and after hearing his words, she was stunned for a moment before bursting into giggles, unable to hold back her laughter.

"It's not like I'm not allowing you to take advantage," she said in a soft voice, as if deliberately provoking him.

This was like pouring oil on the fire!

Gu Jinchen really couldn't sit still any longer. He had already been frantically jumping around the limits of his endurance, so how could he withstand her soft and seductive teasing?

He suddenly flipped over, his burning gaze fixed on her, his eyes so scorching that it felt like anything they touched would instantly burst into flames.

Sensing this, she finally shrank her neck and stopped laughing.

"I didn't mean to..."

Just as she was about to back down, Gu Jinchen reached out and grabbed her hand, his voice hoarse, "Then wife, will you spare me some affection?"

"Huh?" Realizing something, Luo Ge became dazed, her pretty face flushed red as she looked at him.

"You..." Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Gu Jinchen's trembling, pleading voice, "Just this once... wife, spare me some affection."

At this moment, Gu Jinchen was like a big gray wolf disguised in sheep's clothing, looking pitiful on the surface and evoking sympathy, but...

She had no one to blame but herself for playing with fire...

Although he kept his word and it was truly only once, her hands were so sore and weak that they felt numb...

Gu Jinchen, with a satisfied expression, helped her clean her hands, carefully massaging them.

"Wife is so good."

Upon hearing these words, Luo Ge let out a soft groan.

Seeing that she was too tired to speak, Gu Jinchen's smile deepened, holding his little darling tightly.

He also carefully left some space for her belly before turning serious and discussing the day's events.

"Regarding today's incident, fortunately Prince's blockade was timely, and we managed to rescue four children."

"The remaining criminal who escaped early couldn't be stopped and rescued."

"This was not simply a case of child trafficking. According to the criminals we caught, they chose these children for some sort of sacrificial ritual..."

"... Prince has now informed the court of the situation and taken over the case. From now on, I will need to be frequently involved until the matter is resolved."

It must be said that Gu Jinchen was indeed a great helper. During the process of bringing back the children, he put in a lot of effort, and seeing this, Prince requested his continued assistance.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ge nodded in understanding but still had some concerns and reminded him.

"Then you must be careful. Leave the affairs at home to me."

Nowadays, with enough manpower, she didn't need to overwork herself like before. She could handle things herself.

Gu Jinchen nodded, leaning down to kiss her forehead.

"Have them do the work, and if there's anything you can't handle, just wait for me to return. Don't overexert yourself."

"Okay."
