ordinary?

Gu Zhendong is a very competitive person; in his eyes, "ordinary" means the mission has failed.

Lu Huan was not happy at all after seeing the swing he made by hand?

Gu Zhendong didn't believe it; she had looked at him with envy that night.

—Is there another bug in your system?

Xiao Hao was puzzled, then heard Gu Zhendong say: If it weren't for your problem, how could she not like the swing I made by hand?

Xiao Hao: Host, aren't you being too confident in yourself?

Of course, Xiao Hao only dared to think these words in his heart; he would never say them out loud.

—Xiao Hao: Host, please do not question the system's rating function. This rating is based on your wife's true state of mind, and your wife is clearly not as happy as she appears.

Not as happy as they seemed?

So you're saying she was faking it?

Gu Zhendong's face grew increasingly gloomy. Lu Huan, who was standing on his chest, secretly glanced at him, her heart pounding wildly.

Why is Gu Zhendong still unhappy even though she clearly said she liked him?

Could it be that Gu Zhendong realized she was faking it? Impossible, she acted quite well!

"husband!"

Lu Huan let out a sweet cry, hugged the man's waist and acted coquettishly. She didn't care if he was angry or not; acting coquettishly was the right thing to do!

It's too cold outside, she wants to go back!

Before Lu Huan could speak, Gu Zhendong snapped out of his daze, put his arm around Lu Huan's waist, and said, "Since you like it, why don't you go upstairs and sit for a while?"

Lu Huan gasped in surprise, and Gu Zhendong glanced at the swing, gesturing for her to sit down. "You said you liked it, were you just lying to me?"

"Of course not!" With her life at stake, Lu Huan denied it without hesitation. "Of course I love the swing my husband made by hand!"

"But it's so cold outside, I think..."

What are you thinking about?

The man cast a dangerous glance his way, and Lu Huan swallowed back the words that were about to come out, instead saying, "I haven't been on a swing in a long time, I want to sit on one."

Gu Zhendong then patted her hair with satisfaction, "Good girl, sit on it!"

Lu Huan: ...That's true. After all, it was a swing he made himself. It would be too heartbreaking if he never sat on it.

The swing was the perfect height for Lu Huan, and she plopped down on it, turning to Gu Zhendong and ordering, "Give me a push!"

Lu Huan actually had a bad impression of swings.

When she was little, her mother would come home very late from get off work, and she liked to wait for her mother to come home in the garden of the community after school every day.

There is a recreation area in the garden, which happens to have swings.

She loved playing when she was little, but one time while swinging on a swing, she accidentally swung too high and fell headfirst off.

At that time, she was losing her baby teeth and fell face down on the dirt, knocking out her front tooth and bleeding a lot. She was so scared that she cried loudly and didn't dare to tell her mother, trying to hide the incident. However, her mother found out that very night.

Bringing her thoughts back, Lu Huan nervously gripped the ropes on either side. Childhood trauma had become a source of psychological trauma, and her voice trembled involuntarily, "Be gentle, don't swing too high, I'm a little scared!"

Gu Zhendong didn't push her high; Lu Huan's feet had barely left the ground. Most children would still feel it wasn't high enough, but he noticed something was off in Lu Huan's voice. "Are you afraid of heights?"

Lu Huan was too embarrassed to talk about her embarrassing childhood, so she nodded with a forced smile. Gu Zhendong grabbed one of her hands and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm always behind you."

He was protecting her from behind, but what if she fell face-first forward like she did when she was a child? What if she broke her front tooth again? She would be devastated.

Lu Huan was genuinely frightened. When she got off the swing, her legs were still trembling, and she almost couldn't stand up. Fortunately, Gu Zhendong was there to support her.

"Are you really that scared?"

Lu Huan nodded, "It's because something bad happened when I was a child, and I have some psychological trauma."

Although Gu Zhendong didn't know what had happened, seeing her like this, he guessed it had caused a great blow to Lu Huan's young mind.

The fear was real, and Gu Zhendong suddenly felt annoyed that he had insisted on letting Lu Huan sit on it.

"If you were scared, why didn't you say so earlier!"

"You made me sit down so aggressively, how could I dare not sit down!"

Am I very fierce?

Lu Huan nodded vigorously, her eyes accusing him of being bad.

Gu Zhendong apologized profusely, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were afraid of this. I won't let you sit here next time!"

Lu Huan was afraid of swings, so it was understandable that she wasn't as happy as she had imagined when she saw this mysterious surprise gift.

Gu Zhendong suddenly felt relieved. It was just a mission, nothing special.

Having been outside for too long, Lu Huan suddenly sneezed.

Gu Zhendong simply picked her up and carried her into the house, ending Lu Huan's surprise with fear.

Gu Zhendong carried Lu Huan directly back to the bedroom, where the heating was on full blast. As soon as they entered, Lu Huan felt like she had entered paradise and picked up a pillow from the sofa.

Gu Zhendong asked, "Then why did you look so envious when you watched that short video?"

"I'm just envious of other people's love!"

"What, I'm not good to you, and you're envious of other people's love?"

Gu Zhendong gritted his teeth, looking at her dangerously, as if his life would be in danger if she dared to say no!

Lu Huan chuckled, "...That's not entirely true!"

"Then tell me, what do you envy?"

The man's body suddenly pressed against hers, catching Lu Huan off guard. She instinctively leaned back, but with nowhere to retreat, she placed her hands on the man's chest. "I didn't..."

Hey! Why are you suddenly leaning in so close? You're just talking!

She was so close she could see her own reflection in his eyes, flustered and blushing.

Lu Huan dared not say that she had just seen it while scrolling through videos and was just being envious; she had no idea that Gu Zhendong would take it so seriously.

Having been outside for too long, the man was cold all over, and even his breathing was colder than usual. As he brushed his breath across her face, Lu Huan's cheeks gradually became hot.

Avoiding the man's dangerous gaze, she said, "Ah, it's so cold, I'm going to take a shower!"

Without her noticing, Gu Zhendong had pulled her close to the sofa, trapping her against his chest, making it impossible for her to escape.

"Really, I'm going to take a shower!"

Lu Huan poked the man's chest and said in a soft, innocent voice.

The man above spoke: "Raise your head!"

Lu Huan lowered her head and refused to cooperate.

Even a fool could figure out what this man was planning.

Lu Huan didn't want to look up, but Gu Zhendong had plenty of ways to do it. He simply pinched her chin, forcing her to raise her head.

The next second, Lu Huan's lips were completely sealed.

Her body was burning from the kiss, and the man carried her into the bathroom. Soon, she could hear soft, heavy breathing.

Gu Zhendong was relentless in his antics, and suddenly became curious about why she was afraid of swings. Lu Huan couldn't stand it any longer and finally revealed an embarrassing story from her childhood.

Gu Zhendong hugged her and chuckled softly, "So that's how it is."

Lu Huan angrily punched his chest, "How dare you laugh!"

Lu Huan and Gu Zhendong hadn't been back to the Lu family home for a long time. This weekend happened to be Guo Yi's birthday, so she bought a gift in advance and went back with Gu Zhendong that day.

Guo Yi had no shortage of jewelry, so Lu Huan didn't buy her any expensive gifts.

When I called Guo Yi last time, she mentioned that she had been having migraines on and off these days, so I bought some supplements.

Upon arriving at the Lu family home, Lu Huan was surprised to find Chu Jun there as well.

A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. The man beside her noticed her momentary daze. So what if she saw Chu Jun? Why was she staring at him so intently?

He pinched her waist in annoyance, and Lu Huan snapped out of her daze with a wince of pain. She looked up innocently at Gu Zhendong, her dark eyes sparkling as if to say: I didn't.

Gu Zhendong, with an air of nonchalance, asked, "What brings President Chu here?"

What Gu Zhendong wanted to ask was naturally what Lu Huan also wanted to know: Could it be that he and Lu Sangsang were together?

But the way he quickly removed the trending topic recently clearly shows he didn't want to distance himself from Lu Sangsang.

Chu Jun: "I came here specifically to celebrate Aunt Guo's birthday."

"Why didn't Chu Han come?" Lu Huan curiously turned her head to look around and saw Chu Han's figure. Besides, if she were coming, she would definitely have told her in advance.

As soon as Lu Huan finished asking her question, Gu Zhendong's icy gaze fell upon her. Lu Huan gave a dry smile. Gu Zhendong was really stingy; he wouldn't even let her talk to other men.

Chu Jun noticed this and replied, "She's busy studying and doesn't have time to come."

If Chu Han is able to study, then the sun must have risen in the west. Without even thinking about it, it must be because Chu Han doesn't want to see Lu Sangsang, which is why she doesn't want to come over.

Lu Huan nodded knowingly, and put an arm around his shoulder. "Excuse me, we have some things to attend to. Please excuse us for a moment."

Lu Huan: ...Nothing's wrong!

Since Gu Zhendong had already said so, Lu Huan couldn't very well expose his arrogance. She chuckled and said, "Please make yourself at home. Don't be shy, just make yourself at home."

It was obvious that when Lu Huan said the last sentence, she could feel the hand on her shoulder tightening its grip, and she was jealous again.

Lu Huan was led back to the room by the man. As soon as they entered, Lu Huan pretended to be angry, her face tense, and said fiercely to Gu Zhendong, "Gu Zhendong, you can't always be like this. It makes me look bad in front of outsiders!"

"In front of outsiders?" Gu Zhendong noticed this sentence, and his gloomy mood eased slightly.

Why is she going off-topic? Is this even her focus right now?!

Lu Huan, hands on her hips, roared imposingly, "Gu Zhendong! You're always like this! People will think I'm henpecked! Where do you expect me to put my face?! I..."

Before Lu Huan could finish speaking, Gu Zhendong interrupted her: "Chu Jun is no ordinary person!"

"Um?"

"He's the man you used to like!" This was what Gu Zhendong cared about. If it were someone else, it wouldn't matter, but Chu Jun was different. Lu Huan used to be deeply infatuated with him.

Gu Zhendong has cared about Chu Jun more than once, and about how much Lu Huan once liked him, even to the point that she was willing to risk her life for him.

He was also worried that Lu Huan would fall in love with this man again after regaining her memory.

Therefore, he did not want Lu Huan to have too much contact with Chu Jun, and it would be best if they did not see each other at all.

In this way, Lu Huan will have no more attachment to him.

Lu Huan's original intention was to pretend to be fierce to Gu Zhendong, but he didn't expect that Gu Zhendong would take it seriously.
