Chapter 123: Chapter 124 Too Low Collar (2)

Huangfu Jue’s blue eyes swept over her as if scanning, taking her in from head to toe, then from toe to head, with an appraising look in his gaze.

Her figure had not changed much from a few years ago, with the size of her dress fitting just right, only her chest seemed to have become fuller than before. The dress had a regular V-neck design, originally revealing just the right amount of skin.

However, because her chest was fuller than before, the dress’s front was stretched out, turning the normal V-neck into a deep V, revealing much more than he had imagined.

"The neckline is too low," he said, frowning in annoyance.

Had he known this would happen, he should have made the neckline higher.

She’s not his wife, why should he care about how low her neckline is!

Gan Yuan deliberately thrust her chest forward and casually pulled down her neckline.

"What do you know, this is the effect I’m going for!" she retorted.

Watching her adjust her neckline, his blue eyes narrowed. Feeling his gaze, Gan Yuan reached up and pulled her neckline back to its original place.

"I have other matters to attend to, excuse me!"

She moved to walk past him when he pulled her by the waist and pushed her into a corner.

Huangfu Jue’s gaze swept over her neckline as his right hand reached out to steady her shoulder.

Going to play the hooligan again?

Gan Yuan sidestepped his palm, raising her hand to strike back.

Blocking her punch with his forearm, Huangfu Jue’s palm then grasped her collar, his right hand raised to steady her face, as he lowered his head and pressed his forehead against hers.

"Move again, and I’ll kiss you forcibly," he threatened.

She scoffed.

"You try!"

There was something sharp pressing against his chest at the breastbone, and without looking, Huangfu Jue knew it was her clutching his brooch, digging it into his chest.

Glancing at her hand holding the brooch, Huangfu Jue paid it no heed, only pinching her clothes carefully to create wrinkles over her bust.

The light brush of the fabric over skin, the barely-there touches caused her every hair to stand on end.

The man’s face hung down, the top lighting casting his exquisite features into deep shadow, filling the air with a light scent of rosemary.

Gan Yuan took a deep breath, her chest rising and falling, brushing against his fingers.

She busied herself with breathing in, inching her body backward.

The man was oblivious, focused solely on adjusting her clothes, creating pleasing pleats in the fabric around her chest with his fingertips. Then he raised his other hand, grasping her hand along with the brooch.

His palm was warm, heating the back of her hand uncomfortably.

"Let go!" she growled.

All he did was hold her hand, threading the brooch carefully through the fabric. After such manner of mock adjustment, the dress’s neckline became modestly smaller, and what was initially barely concealed was now tightly wrapped.

It was only then that Gan Yuan understood his intention, and she was rendered speechless.

Just because he thought her neckline was a bit too large, he decided to make it smaller?! This guy... was he treating her as his property?!

After meticulously adjusting the brooch, Huangfu Jue carefully checked it before reaching out again to adjust the angle of a wrinkle. Satisfied with the newly revised look at her bust, his furrowed brow finally relaxed.

"There," he said.

Gan Yuan, coming back to her senses, showed not the slightest bit of gratitude.

"You owe me a dress!"

This was a gift from her son, and he’d gone and pierced it.

Huangfu Jue looked up, scanning her tense eyes, his tone becoming even gentler.

"Don’t worry, I’ll give you a better one."

"I don’t want a better one, I want this one!" she insisted.

She reached up to pinch the brooch that was shaped like a scepter, attempting to unclasp it from the dress.
