Hearing Gu Yao’s words, the corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth twitched slightly. He had bought her so many sexy nightwears, yet he still wanted her to thank him? He probably wanted Gu Zheng to thank him!

“Gu Yao, I finally understand why you were always beaten by Gu Zheng since you were young but you still have your limbs intact.”

Gu Yao asked curiously, “Why?”

“Because Gu Zheng doesn’t stoop to the level of a fool,” Qiao Xi said through gritted teeth. Only a fool like Gu Yao would give his sister-in-law sexy nightwear.

After Gu Zheng woke up, he went downstairs and saw the two of them sitting on the sofa and talking. They were holding a few pieces of fabric in their hands. This intimate scene made his eyes darken.

Gu Yao was still talking non-stop. “There’s very little fabric! Gu Zheng is injured, after all. He hasn’t recovered yet. Will he be unable to take the shock?! Although his body has recovered, he still can’t do any vigorous exercise!

“Why don’t we forget about it first? You should wait for him to recover before wearing these. Otherwise, he definitely won’t be able to control himself!”

As soon as Gu Yao finished speaking, Qiao Xi saw a tall figure coming down from upstairs. She abruptly raised her eyes and saw Gu Zheng looking at the two of them with a faint smile.

Damn! Gu Yao would be the death of her!

Gu Yao’s back was facing the stairs, so he did not see the man. He continued, “What’s with your expression?! I’m doing this for your own good. I want to hug my nephew as soon as possible.”

Qiao Xi blinked at him, hinting at him that Gu Zheng was downstairs. However, Gu Yao did not understand what she was doing and asked with a puzzled expression, “Qiao Xi, what’s wrong with your eyes? Are you not feeling well? Or do you and Gu Zheng like more exciting things? Gu Zheng, that brat, looks like quite a serious man. I didn’t expect him to play so well in bed!”

“Heh! You’re having fun?” A low and cold voice sounded from behind him.

Before Gu Yao could react, he blurted out, “That’s right! Gu Zheng…”

Suddenly, he paused and felt a chill behind him. It made his hair stand on end. He turned around in horror. At this moment, Gu Zheng was looking down at him.

“Brother! You… Listen, I just figured that you and Qiao Xi haven’t done it in a long time, so I wanted you two to have some fun. Do you understand? I’m doing this for your own good.”

Gu Zheng’s eyes were deep and cold. Qiao Xi sensed that something was wrong, but Gu Yao did not notice anything unusual with Gu Zheng.

“Gu Zheng, why are you looking at me with this expression? You’re always throwing a tantrum. You’re her husband, yet you don’t know how to be gentle. Qiao Xi is still here. Don’t tell me you want to hit me?! Ah! Cough, cough, cough… Gu Zheng, you…”

Gu Zheng’s eyes turned cold as if he thought that Gu Yao was being noisy. He suddenly reached out and grabbed Gu Yao’s neck. The force he exerted made Gu Yao unable to breathe.

Gu Yao was instantly stunned. He had even forgotten to struggle. In the past when Gu Zheng hit him, he would only suffer from some physical pain. Now, Gu Zheng was actually strangling him?

Qiao Xi’s expression changed, and she hurriedly moved forward to stop Gu Zheng. She held a silver needle and stabbed it into an acupuncture point on his arm. “Gu Zheng, let go!”

Gu Zheng slowly raised his head, his eyes looking gray. His younger brother and lover were both standing in front of him, but the look of gentleness and love in his eyes had already vanished. It was as though he had become a stranger.

At this moment, Gu Yao also realized that something was wrong. His voice was hoarse. “Gu Zheng! You… What are you doing?”

The man let go, and his eyes gradually recovered their clarity. However, what appeared in the corners of his eyes was shock and alienation. He did not explain anything and hurriedly turned to leave.

Gu Yao and Qiao Xi looked at each other. The former asked with some lingering fear, “Qiao Xi, what’s wrong with him? Why do I feel like he seemed to have changed into a different person just now? It was as though he wanted to kill me.

“He was fine before he was discharged. Could it be that he’s sick?”

Qiao Xi sighed. “Gu Yao, your brother isn’t targeting you. He’s just a little unwell.”

Gu Yao was silent for a moment before he suddenly shouted, “Could it be that Gu Zheng was sleepwalking?! He didn’t have this problem when he was young! You have to watch him when he sleeps at night. If anything happens to him, the company will fall into my hands. I don’t want to be the president forever! It’s too tiring!”

Qiao Xi: “…” ‘Damn! I thought you were worried about your brother, but you’re afraid of having to manage the company.’

Qiao Xi lowered her eyes. Logically speaking, Gu Zheng had already drunk her blood, and the poison in his body should have been dealt with. Why did he suddenly become like this?
