"I thought... you would like it?" Although they had been married for two years and had done this countless times, it seemed to be absent from her memory. Lu Yu had specifically taken a day off for this reason.
Gu Wan replied indifferently, "It''s fine, I''m not a child anymore."
For her current self, it wasn''t a big deal anymore.
Seeing Gu Wan''s nonchnt attitude, Lu Yu said nothing, only gently cing the tray he was holding on the nearby coffee table.
When Gu Wan came out after freshening up and saw him, she couldn''t help butin, "It''s all your fault."
She pointed at her neck, as if indicating some evidence of guilt, but to Lu Yu''s eyes, it looked more like a kind of proof.
Lu Yu instinctively reached out his hand, gently caressing the spot with his fingertips, his gaze gradually darkening.
Gu Wan felt a slight tickle on her corbone, causing her to instinctively shrink her neck. Feeling ufortable, she chose to avoid it.
"Alright, alright, stop touching, I need to eat."
Feeling her lightly pushing his hand away, Lu Yu pressed his lips together. After she sat down to start eating, he also sat down opposite her.
Before, she used to bring him milk at night, and now he was bringing her breakfast and porridge in the morning. This was really...
Gu Wan shook her head, dispersing the untimely thoughts in her mind.
The chicken and yam porridge was smooth and delicate. After a few mouthfuls, she felt her stomach warming up. Just as Gu Wan was about to continue, she heard the man across from her say, "There''s a banquet in a few days,e with me."
Gu Wan instinctively touched her neck, thought for a moment, and feeling that a few days should be enough time, she didn''t refuse.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye. Looking at the marks that had only faded by half, Gu Wan felt she had agreed too soon.
A few scattered kiss marks on her porcin-white neck looked both seductive and beautiful, like red plum blossoms fallen on snow in winter.
Before the stylist arrived, Gu Wan quickly used concealer to cover that area, to avoid embarrassment.
Seeing Lu Yu staring at her, Gu Wan''s dissatisfaction nearly reached its peak. She took a deep breath, and suddenly an idea popped into her mind.
Gu Wan couldn''t help but smile.
Just as Lu Yu was wondering what was going on, Gu Wan stood up and walked directly in front of him. She first beckoned to Lu Yu, who thought she had something to say to him, so he instinctively leaned forward.
Seeing the man voluntarily leaning in, Gu Wan gave him no chance to regret. She yanked his well-tied tie, pulled down his cor, and without mercy, bit down.
If she was going to be embarrassed, they might as well be embarrassed together.
Lu Yu only felt a soft and moist sensation on his neck, causing his chin to involuntarily tilt upwards, his Adam''s apple bobbing constantly, his breathing gradually bing rapid.
"You..." His voice had unknowingly be hoarse.
Just as he was about to lose control, Gu Wan finally released him.
"There." Looking at the red mark gradually appearing on the man''s neck, Gu Wan was finally satisfied.
After a good while, Lu Yu btedly touched the spot where she had just bitten.
Just as Gu Wan was secretly bracing herself for him to suddenly get angry, to her surprise, Lu Yuughed in the next second.
It wasn''t a forced smile, nor a coldugh, but a genuinely happy smile.
Gu Wan: "..."
Gu Wan was dumbfounded.
"Hey, you—" Gu Wan had a moment of confusion. Seeing that not only did he not try to cover it up, but he even boldly exposed his neck, not wearing his tie, not buttoning up, and even preparing to go downstairs, Gu Wan quickly grabbed his arm before his hand could touch the doorknob.
"Don''t you have any sense of shame?!"
Gu Wan hadn''t expected him to act like this. When it came to thick skin, she had lost.
Lu Yu truly didn''t mind, and was even a bit happy.
Gu Wan couldn''t help but pat her forehead, thinking that as expected of a businessman, what was she thinking earlier, believing he would feel embarrassed about this.
In the end, what started as her trying to drag him down with her ended up with her having to button up his shirt herself.
Seeing Gu Wan''s expression bing increasingly odd, Lu Yu finally withdrew his gaze, lightly coughed, and said, "I''ll wait for you downstairs."
About two or three minutester, the stylist arrived, and Gu Wan finally had no time to think about anything else.
Even among wealthy families, it was rare to see someone with skin this good. Every time she styled this Mrs. Lu, the stylist had to marvel.
She had heard other wealthydies say that Mrs. Lu had been in a car ident recently and lost her memory, but she didn''t know if it was true or not.
Just as the stylist was thinking random thoughts, in a short twenty minutes, Gu Wan''s hairstyle and full makeup werepleted.
It must be said, this money was truly easy to earn.
As Gu Wan looked over, the stylist was already smilingly presenting a gown.
After Gu Wan changed into the dress, the stylist waspletely speechless.
The smoky purple skirt seemed to have a life of its own, flowing and floating with her movements, dancing with shimmering light under the intery of light and shadow. The semi-transparent gauze on the shoulders and neck revealed her jade-like skin underneath, making her appear even more ethereal and pure. At this moment, everything around seemed to lose its color, leaving only this touch of snow-white in the world. The next second, she looked this way, her gaze profound, as if ice and snow were melting in an instant.
Not like a mortal guest, surpassing even heavenly beings.
The stylist couldn''t help but swallow.
Gu Wan didn''t think much about it. Seeing that it was about time, she prepared to go downstairs.
However, after taking just two steps, about to turn the corner, she found the skirt a bit too long. Gu Wan frowned slightly and reached out to lift it.
"Click, click," the sound of high heels on the stairs rang out. Lu Yu instinctively put down his phone and looked up. With just one nce, he was stunned.
It wasn''t until Gu Wan walked up to him that Lu Yu btedly took out a red velvet box.
Gu Wan only felt something cool around her neck. Looking down, she saw it was another diamond ne she had never seen before.
The previous pile hadn''t been returned yet, and now there was a new one, with evenrger gemstones than before. Gu Wan suspected he had an addiction to buying jewelry.
Considering they were about to leave, Gu Wan didn''t argue with him about this now.
The stylist, following silently behind them downstairs, couldn''t help but think, with buying gowns and jewelry like this, the couple didn''t seem to have a bad rtionship at all.
But this had nothing to do with her, so after briefly marveling in her heart, the stylist quickly left.
About twenty minutester, the sky outside hadpletely darkened, and Gu Wan got into the car with Lu Yu.
Today was the engagement party of the second generation of the Zhao and Zheng families. Many people from City A''s business and political circles had been invited, and Lu Yu was no exception.
In Gu Wan''s memory, she had only attended such asions once or twice with her mother. Her mother''s beauty clinic mainly catered to middle and low-end clientele, so the prestige of those banquets was certainly notparable to this one. But strangely, Gu Wan didn''t feel nervous at all, though she didn''t know why.
Half an hourter, the ck Maybach slowly pulled up at the entrance of City A''s most luxurious hotel. Seeing this, the hotel''s doorman hurried forward to help open the car door.
As the car door sound rang out, Gu Wan only felt the overhead lights pouring down. Because Gu Wan was still in the car, the other people only saw that touch of white hidden inside.
However, just this touch of white was enough to attract many people''s gazes.
Seeing the familiar license te, a man who was about to enter the hall immediately stopped in his tracks. Cui Shang, who had been chattering endlessly beside the man earlier, also instinctively looked back.
"Oh? Isn''t this Mr. Lu''s car?"
Nearly two months had passed since the fishing incident at the grasnds, and Cui Shang hadn''t seen Lu Yu in that time. Of course, Cui Shang didn''t really care about seeing Lu Yu or not; he was mainly concerned about something else.
"Since Mr. Lu hase, does that mean..." Mrs. Gu ising too?
Cui Shang swallowed the second half of his sentence instinctively. He had no choice; after all, his father was here today. If the old man overheard him talking nonsense again, he''d be done for.
The man beside Cui Shang remained silent, simply watching quietly.
Gu Wan gave her formal dress another quick once-over. After confirming everything was in order, she prepared to exit the car. However, just as she extended her hand, someone grasped it.
Gu Wan looked up, her gaze meeting Lu Yu''s deep eyes.
Previously, Lu Yu''s mind had been elsewhere, so he hadn''t noticed the nces from others. Now, taking a proper look, Lu Yu found it quite ufortable.
The car had already stopped at the entrance, so Gu Wan didn''t dwell on it further. Her right hand naturally slipped through Lu Yu''s arm, gently linking with him.
Lu Yu exhaled slowly, the corners of his mouth turning up slightly.
In the next moment, thevender skirt cascaded down like flowing light, creating a sudden ripple.
The two inws, Zhao and Zheng, who had been greeting guests at the entrance, paused for a moment. As Gu Wan and Lu Yu approached, they actively went to wee them.
Lu Yu had the prepared mary gift and congrattory presents brought forward, exchanged a few pleasantries with the two, and then entered the venue.
The two inws, Zhao and Zheng, waited until Gu Wan and Lu Yu''s figures had disappeared into the distance before they couldn''t help but muse to themselves. Was it their imagination? They felt that the atmosphere between Mr. Lu and his wife seemed... well, somehow it made them feel a bit envious.
In just that short walk, Gu Wan had attracted countless gazes. Ultimately, it was because Lu Yu had be too famous in the past two years, drawing many eyes as soon as they entered.
However, apart from those she''d seen on TV, Gu Wan didn''t recognize a single person. Just as she was about to lower her voice and ask if Lu Yu had any social obligations for the evening, a somewhat familiar voice rang out—
"Well, Mr. Lu, you two havee as well?"
Two months apart, and despite his best efforts to conceal it, that rakish quality in Cui Shang''s bones simply couldn''t be hidden.
Gu Wan looked in the direction of the voice, first seeing the grinning young man, and then noticing the man standing beside him.
Simrly dressed in a suit and tie, with a serious expression, Gu Wan nced at Lu Yu beside her and oddly felt the two men looked somewhat alike.
Soon, Gu Wan realized this wasn''t just her imagination; Lu Yu and the other man indeed knew each other. Not only that, but they seemed to be quite good friends.
As they say, birds of a feather flock together.
Seeing that they had apparently encountered an acquaintance, Gu Wan naturally loosened her grip on Lu Yu''s arm.
Whether it was her imagination or not, Gu Wan couldn''t shake the feeling that the man called Shen An had nced at her.
