Lu Huan became the fake daughter who was wrongly took in a wealthy family. When the true daughter returned, she had to give up her position.
In order to give her gratitude to the family who t...
Lost?
This ruby necklace must be quite valuable, right?
She dared to say that if she were really lost, a certain man would immediately turn on her.
The birthday gift was too expensive for her to accept; she simply couldn't bear to.
Holding the box, Lu Huan hesitated, unsure whether to accept it or not.
Gu Zhendong noticed her hesitation and said, "Didn't you say you wanted a birthday present?"
“But I didn’t expect Mr. Gu to give such an expensive gift!” Lu Huan placed the box containing the ruby necklace on the coffee table and politely declined, “I’m already very happy that you could come to my birthday party. There’s really no need for a gift.”
As soon as Lu Huan put the box down, someone's expression immediately turned ugly.
Sure enough, he was angry!
Lu Huan was thinking about how to coax the angry Gu Zhendong when she heard the man ask coldly, "So what kind of birthday present do you want?"
Lu Huan really didn't want anything, but if she didn't specify what she wanted, she was afraid that Gu Zhendong would give her something even more expensive.
After thinking it over carefully, she gave Gu Zhendong a bright smile and said, "I would like to wish you a happy birthday, Mr. Gu."
This birthday gift is the cheapest one you can get!
Gu Zhendong was taken aback. He thought Lu Huan wanted some kind of birthday present, but he didn't expect it to be such a simple "Happy Birthday".
Tonight's birthday party is ostensibly Lu Huan's birthday, but in reality, it's an excuse for Lu Zhong to reveal Lu Sangsang's identity.
Lu Sangsang has become the focus of everyone's attention, and many people are rushing to curry favor with her. Who would think of Lu Huan now?
Even if they exist, those people are all ill-intentioned.
"Lu Huan!"
"Um?"
The man became serious and suddenly called her name. Lu Huan responded, confused, her eyes widening.
Her eyes reflected the man's handsome face, and she heard him say gently, "Happy birthday!"
Lu Huan paused for a moment, then smiled sincerely, "Thank you."
After resting for a while, Kong Xun knocked on the door and came in.
Lu Huan had been gone for too long, so Guo Yi sent people to look for her. Kong Xun received the news and came to report.
Lu Huan stood up and said to Gu Zhendong, "Mr. Gu, I'll head back now. Remember to come out for birthday cake later!"
"good."
Gu Zhendong readily agreed, and Lu Huan smiled, waved to him, and walked outside.
Lu Zhong was exchanging pleasantries with Chu Jun and his sister when Ye Sangsang stood beside Chu Jun.
Lu Huan glanced at it from afar, secretly admiring it in his heart.
They truly are the male and female protagonists of this book; they look so perfectly matched standing together.
He rubbed his burning face, put on a bright smile again, and returned to Guo Yi's side as if nothing had happened.
Lu Huan's sudden return naturally attracted everyone's attention.
Especially when Ye Sangsang glanced at Lu Huan's face absentmindedly, it seemed as if nothing had happened.
Guo Yi gently scolded, "Where did you go to slack off?"
Lu Huan clung to Guo Yi's arm affectionately, "Mom, I just went to rest for a while."
Guo Yi was easily swayed by Lu Huan's coquettishness and immediately softened, unable to utter any angry words. "It's all my fault for spoiling you!"
Chu Jun's gaze also fell on Lu Huan. He had seen Lu Huan in many different ways: unreasonable, capricious, like a shrew. But he had never seen Lu Huan act coquettishly.
She's so delicate and soft, it makes you want to hold her in your arms. Her smile is captivating. If she wanted the moon, you would pluck it down for her.
Chu Jun stared at Lu Huan, momentarily stunned, and didn't even hear what Ye Sangsang said.
Ye Sangsang called out several times, noticing that Chu Jun was staring at Lu Huan, and felt a prickling pain in her heart.
She is clearly the daughter of the Lu family, and everyone's attention should be on her.
Originally, everyone was talking about her, envying her for becoming a high-society heiress. But once Lu Huan appeared, all the topics of discussion turned to Lu Huan, and everyone only had eyes for her.
Jealousy grew rampant in her heart. Ye Sangsang looked angrily at Lu Huan, who was acting coquettishly. She wished that Lu Huan would never appear in this world.
Not content with taking away her life for the past twenty years, do they also want to take away what belongs to her in the future?
The resentful gaze from that person was so obvious that Lu Huan couldn't help but notice it.
When Ye Sangsang met his gaze, she was taken aback for a moment, but quickly concealed the hint of jealousy in her eyes.
She really didn't understand why Ye Sangsang hated her so much when she hadn't done anything to her at all.
Ye Sangsang and Chu Jun chatted and laughed, while Lu Huan and Chu Jun had nothing in common. Lu Huan stood aside and listened to Ye Sangsang, maintaining a polite smile.
Thinking about all sorts of random things, Ye Sangsang, as expected of the female lead, won over Chu Jun after only one meeting.
It should be noted that Chu Jun always showed an impatient and disgusted expression when dealing with the original owner of this body, unlike his elegant and charming demeanor towards Ye Sangsang.
Chu Jun was as good to Ye Sangsang as he was to the original owner of this body.
Thinking about it this way, the original owner of this body was actually quite pitiful.
She stole a glance at Chu Jun, only to find that he was looking right at her.
Their eyes met, and Lu Huan, without backing down, said with a smile, "I'd like to get a glass of water. You two can continue your conversation."
Even just being an observer is hard work for her.
Lu Huan preferred to find a place to sit down, have a glass of juice, and wait for the banquet to end.
In just a few minutes, Chu Jun appeared to be chatting with her, but his gaze was constantly fixed on Lu Huan's face.
"Sister, did we ignore you while we were talking?" Ye Sangsang frowned slightly, showing an apologetic expression, but also a hint of smugness.
Her smug expression seemed to say: See? The topics we're discussing are things you can't get a piece of the action with.
The words and phrases spoken by the lotus exude a refreshing lotus fragrance.
Lu Huan wasn't unable to join their conversation; she simply didn't want to.
She figured Chu Jun would find her repulsive if he heard her speak.
"It's nothing, I'm just thirsty. You and President Chu can chat slowly."
Lu Huan grabbed Chu Han, turned around and left without even looking back.
Chu Han was naturally unhappy. She originally wanted to match Lu Huan with her brother, but then Ye Sangsang appeared in the middle.
She definitely doesn't want Ye Sangsang to be her sister-in-law!
Chu Han's face was tense, clearly showing her displeasure. "Why did you drag me here!"
She also had to keep an eye on Ye Sangsang, not allowing Ye Sangsang to have any ulterior motives towards her brother.
"Nonsense, they're having such a great time chatting. If we can't even get a word in edgewise, why would we just stand there like annoying third wheels?" Lu Huan rolled her eyes at her.
Chu Han stared at Ye Sangsang not far away, gritting her teeth in anger, "I knew Ye Sangsang had designs on my brother, no way, I have to go over there..."
Chu Han rushed over angrily, but Lu Huan grabbed her. "Lu Huan, let go of me! Look at that woman Ye Sangsang, she's practically pressed against my brother! I'm going to pull her away!"
"Chu Han, calm down!" Lu Huan refused to let go no matter what. Her angry posture clearly indicated that she wanted to tear Ye Sangsang to pieces.
"If you rush over and attack Ye Sangsang, your brother will definitely get angry again and freeze your card!"
Chu Han: ...
Lu Huan's words were truly insightful.
Chu Han had caused a scene once before, and Chu Jun, in a fit of anger, froze all of Chu Han's cards for two whole months.
Without money, Chu Han had a very difficult time. Fortunately, she still had Lu Huan, otherwise she would have starved to death.
The thought of being cut off from his source of income deflated his fighting spirit, and he became listless.
After much persuasion from Lu Huan, Chu Han gradually calmed down.
Having finally managed to divert her attention, Chu Han turned her focus back to her, "Tell me honestly, where did you go just now? Did you go to see some random guy?"
When Lu Huan returned, she was beaming with pride. Others might not know, but her best friend certainly did!
When Lu Huan fell for her brother before, she had the same expression on her face, her face full of spring fever that she couldn't hide.
Isn't this topic jumping a bit too fast?
"What nonsense are you talking about! I don't have any other men!" Lu Huan scolded, her face flushed.
The thought of Gu Zhendong holding her hand earlier made her ears burn, and her face was full of spring fever.
Chu Han chuckled, "Still denying it? You practically have it written all over your face!"
Is it that obvious?
Lu Huan subconsciously wanted to touch her face, but noticing Chu Han's gaze, she reluctantly withdrew her hand.
He had a fierce look on his face, and seemed even fiercer than Gu Zhendong.
Lu Huan pinched the corner of her mouth, trying to force a smile, "Okay, smile! Getting angry all the time will give you wrinkles!"
Chu Han ruthlessly slapped the paper away, saying, "Laughing too much will cause wrinkles!"
"Okay, okay, whatever you say is right!" Lu Huan nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Chu Han was speechless for a moment, "Lu Huan, you're really going to drive me crazy!"
She had never seen Gu Zhendong's true face before, but after her brother told her today, she realized that the person Lu Huan fell in love with at first sight was actually Gu Zhendong.
Chu Han knew a little about Gu Zhendong's affairs.
"Lu Huan, I don't approve of you being with Gu Zhendong!"
Why?
"Others are fine, but Gu Zhendong is definitely not suitable!" Seeing Lu Huan's bewildered expression, Chu Han knew that Lu Huan was absolutely captivated by Gu Zhendong's handsome appearance.
She whispered in Lu Huan's ear, "He's sickly. I heard his body is completely drained and he won't live much longer. If you really get together with him, do you want to live a life of widowhood?"
Lu Huan: ...
Ye Sangsang was chatting with Chu Jun when she suddenly felt a wave of discomfort in her stomach, followed by sharp pains.
Her expression changed, and she seemed about to fall into Chu Jun's arms, but the man quickly caught her. "What's wrong?"
Ye Sangsang looked pained, but managed a weak smile at Chu Jun, "I'm fine, I just suddenly feel a little unwell."
"Mr. Chu, could you please take me back to the lounge?"
Ye Sangsang's demeanor didn't seem feigned, and given the urgency of the situation, Chu Jun didn't have time to think too much. He bent down, picked up Ye Sangsang, and carried her outside.
This move has attracted a lot of attention.
This also included Lu Huan and Chu Han, who were standing not far away.
Chu Han was pressing Lu Huan for details about her relationship with Gu Zhendong.
Lu Huan said they were still just friends, but Chu Hanfei didn't believe her.
Fortunately, Chu Jun rescued her in time. She pointed in the direction Chu Jun had left carrying Ye Sangsang and asked, "What happened to Ye Sangsang? Why did your brother carry her away?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Han quickly turned around and saw her brother carrying Ye Sangsang out. She stared wide-eyed in alarm, "That Ye Sangsang is simply shameless!"
? ? ?
Three question marks appeared above Lu Huan's head, followed by the sound of Chu Han gritting her teeth and saying, "I drugged her drink!"
Lu Huan: !
Wedding night...
Lu Huan: I heard you're completely drained, is that true?
Gu Zhendong: ...
