With just one word from Gu Tingyuan, Mu Wan would most likely be imprisoned in this villa and not be able to go anywhere.

She could not be ‘imprisoned’. Her brother was still waiting for her to rescue him, and she had to find a way to get close to Gu Han as soon as possible.

“Alright, I’ll be leaving then!”

Mu Wan nodded. She stood at the door and watched as Helian Zhen left. Then, she turned and entered the living room.

She had just turned around when she saw Gu Tingyuan standing halfway up the stairs, staring straight at her.

She was stunned. She didn’t know when he started standing there.

Gu Tingyuan’s expression had not been good since just now. He finally managed to calm down in the study room for a while. When he went downstairs, he saw Mu Wan standing at the door ‘reluctantly’ as she sent

Helian Zhen off. This made his heart, which had finally calmed down, freeze again.

Under his gaze, the atmosphere seemed to freeze.

Mu Wan had wanted to go upstairs, but when she saw him standing in the middle of the stairs, neither going up nor coming down, she didn’t know if she should go upstairs.

After a long time, she finally walked towards the stairs.

When she walked past him, she did not say anything. She just wanted to walk over silently.

In the next moment, he unexpectedly pressed her against the staircase railing!

“Ah!” Mu Wan panicked and cried out instinctively.

At this moment, her entire upper body was suspended in the air. As long as Gu Tingyuan loosened his grip, she could flip over the railing at any time and fall straight down.

Looking at the man in front of her, Mu Wan turned pale and frightened. “W-What are you doing?”

Gu Tingyuan felt like there was a fish bone stuck in his throat. He was unhappy that she was staring at another man. He was unhappy that she was able to talk and interact with other men while maintaining a distance

from him.

However, he could not find any reason to vent his unhappiness. Even if he was extremely unhappy, he could only watch!

He pinned her against the railing of the stairs and said coldly, “Don’t forget who you are. You’re a married woman!”

Mu Wan was stunned, not understanding what he meant.

“You’re not allowed to look at any men other than me!”

Mu Wan looked confused.

Gu Tingyuan’s face was right in front of her, and his body was pressed tightly against hers, making it impossible for her to escape. The hand on her waist was like a god who ruled over her life and death. As long as he

loosened his grip, she would fall to her death.

Suddenly, Helian Zhen’s words rang in her ears. He was jealous.

She thought about it carefully. Gu Tingyuan’s bad mood seemed to have started when she and Helian Zhen went back to the house from the garden together. Then, at the dining table, Helian picked up food for her and

he suddenly stopped eating!

Was he really jealous?

“Are you.. jealous?”

Mu Wan looked at the man in front of her and asked.

Gu Tingyuan was obviously taken aback by her words.

After staring at her for five seconds, he tightened his grip and pulled her back from the railing. “You’re just flattering yourself!”

With that, he strode down the stairs.

Mu Wan stood rooted to the ground, her expression darkening as she watched him leave.

She was indeed imagining things.

Three years ago, she might have been able to say this, but three years later, he didn’t even have the time to hate her. How could he be jealous?

Perhaps it was because he was extremely possessive. He would never let anyone covet anything that was engraved with his seal, right?.
