After spending a month together, Lu Huan discovered that Gu Zhendong was a very petty and jealous man.

Lu Huan exclaimed in surprise, "Are you coming too?"

"You don't want to come with me?" Gu Zhendong narrowed his eyes unhappily, his dark pupils looking at the bustling school gate. "Or is the person you're having dinner with a boy?"

Gu Zhendong knew how popular Lu Huan was at school.

Many boys pursued Lu Huan, and Gu Zhendong himself had the privilege of seeing them a few times.

Lu Huan gave an awkward smile, "Of course not, it really is a girl!"

"It's just that she's a bit timid, and I'm afraid you'll scare her."

"Um?"

Gu Zhendong looked at her, puzzled. "Do I look that scary?"

Lu Huan muttered under her breath, "He's incredibly handsome, but he always has such a serious face, it's kind of scary!"

If Gu Zhendong and Xin Yue eat hot pot together, Xin Yue will probably be too scared to eat hot pot anymore, right?

"that……"

Before Lu Huan could finish speaking, Gu Zhendong suddenly said, "I have to go on a business trip for a few days starting tomorrow."

The implication was that they wouldn't see each other for a few days, "Can't we even have dinner together tonight?"

She had a vague feeling that Gu Zhendong was flirting with her.

He shook his head quickly. How could that be!

However, since Gu Zhendong had already said so, Lu Huan naturally couldn't refuse him. "Alright then, let's have hot pot together. But let's make it clear first, you're not allowed to give my senior a cold shoulder."

"good!"

After hanging up the phone, Lu Huan turned to look for Xin Yue.

Xin Yue had just finished class when she received a message from Lu Huan urging her to come down from the teaching building. She happily took Lu Huan's arm and said, "Let's go eat hot pot!"

Lu Huan chuckled, "Um, senior, if you don't mind, can I bring a friend?"

"Of course I don't mind!" After all, Lu Huan was the one treating her to dinner, so how could she refuse? Xin Yue asked curiously, "Who is he? Do I know him? Is he the guy who's pursuing you?"

Xin Yue was extremely envious of Lu Huan; he had so many suitors that they even came to the anime club to confess their feelings.

Every single one of those boys was a handsome young man—gentle, domineering, academic genius, sports student, super sunny and dashing—all kinds of boys were available, but Lu Huan was incredibly picky and didn't agree to any of them.

Xin Yue had never met Gu Zhendong in person, but was extremely curious about Lu Huan's legendary mysterious boyfriend.

As she was reminiscing, she heard Lu Huan say, "Haha, it's the one I told you about, my boyfriend!"

"What?!" Xin Yue exclaimed in shock, raising her voice, "Your boyfriend?"

Her shout drew the attention of many people around her.

Lu Huan quickly covered her mouth, "Why are you making such a loud noise!"

"Mmm..."

Xin Yue wanted to speak, but Lu Huan covered her mouth tightly. After struggling several times, she forcefully pulled her hand away and gasped for fresh air, "Do you want me to be a third wheel?"

Xin Yue's first reaction was that she didn't want to go. These two young lovers were having a romantic date, and she was just going to be a super-bright third wheel and annoyed people. After thinking about it, she decided against it.

But then she thought about it again, and realized she was just too curious about Lu Huan's mysterious boyfriend.

What must the other person look like to make Lu Huan reject all the suitors at school?

Xin Yue was getting a little excited, "Is your boyfriend fierce?"

To be honest, Gu Zhendong is quite fierce.

But in front of Xin Yue, Lu Huan certainly couldn't give such a direct answer.

She shook her head and said against her will, "He's alright, he's quite gentle."

Xin Yue was even more envious of Lu Huan. Not only was she beautiful, but she also had a gentle boyfriend.

Sigh, maybe this is just fate.

Xin Yue didn't think too much about it and went to eat hot pot with Lu Huan.

Before even reaching the school gate, I spotted that legendary luxury car.

She never imagined that one day she would be able to ride in such a luxury car.

Xin Yue's family wasn't poor; they were quite wealthy. But at most, they owned a Mercedes-Benz, nothing like someone who had ever ridden in a luxury car of that caliber.

What shocked Xin Yue the most was not the luxury car, but the man inside it.

The first word that comes to mind is "stunningly beautiful".

She was truly a beauty beyond compare.

Of all the anime characters she's seen over the years, Gu Zhendong is far more handsome than any of those two-dimensional characters.

She finally understood why Lu Huan was so determined to reject the boys at school. She didn't even realize that none of those boys could compare to the mature, steady, and abstinent adult man in front of her.

If she were Lu Huan, with such a stunningly handsome man, why would she even look at the immature boys at school?

Xin Yue was momentarily stunned by Gu Zhendong's otherworldly appearance, staring blankly at the man with her watery eyes. This displeased Gu Zhendong slightly, and his thick eyebrows furrowed.

Gu Zhendong didn't like being stared at. Seeing that Gu Zhendong was about to get angry, Lu Huan hurriedly and cautiously introduced him: "This is my boyfriend whom I mentioned to you before. His name is Gu Zhendong."

Turning to Gu Zhendong, she said, "This is my senior, Xin Yue!"

Gu Zhendong didn't like the way the woman in front of him was looking at him, and he felt a little displeased. However, considering that she was Lu Huan's friend, he forced himself to hold back and greeted her politely but distantly, "Hello."

Lu Huan's boyfriend is not only incredibly handsome, but he also has a wonderfully deep and magnetic voice.

Xin Yue was pinched by Lu Huan, which quickly brought her back to her senses. She excitedly greeted Gu Zhendong, "Oh, Mr. Gu, hello! I've often heard Lu Huan mention you!"

The man in front of her gave her a sense of high status, and Xin Yue subconsciously used an honorific title.

Gu Zhendong didn't say anything, and Lu Huan pulled Xin Yue into the car.

Gu Zhendong was a little unhappy; the three of them sitting together made it feel a bit crowded.

With a slight frown, Lu Huan's friend felt that their private time had been disturbed and wanted him to sit in the front passenger seat.

The car suddenly started moving, and Lu Huan lost her balance, her body swaying as she fell into Gu Zhendong's arms.

When the two usually sit together, Lu Huan is so shy that she always prefers to sit far away from him, with a distance of almost half a meter between them.

At that moment, a faint fragrance filled his nostrils, and Gu Zhendong subconsciously put his arm around her waist. Suddenly, he felt that it wouldn't be so bad if three people sat behind him.

Lu Huan blushed and quickly sat up straight from Gu Zhendong's embrace. She looked away awkwardly, feeling the man's hand still on her waist. Her face gradually burned. She turned back and glared at him, warning him to let go of her hand.

Gu Zhendong ignored her, his lips slightly upturned, and Lu Huan, with her flushed face, looked incredibly alluring, making him want to take a bite.

Xin Yue, who was standing to the side, had obviously noticed it as well.

The car was rather dark. Xin Yue had just noticed the young couple holding hands next to her when she realized that two cold, piercing gazes were fixed on her.

Looking up, she met Gu Zhendong's cold, dark eyes, which were sinister and sent chills down her spine.

The man didn't speak, but his eyes clearly warned her not to chop indiscriminately, or he would gouge out her eyes.

Xin Yue shivered and quickly looked away from the car window.

The so-called gentle men are all lies!

Startled by Gu Zhendong's single glance, Xin Yue's attitude towards the man immediately changed drastically.

What's the use of being incredibly handsome if you're still so cold and aloof? In comparison, she still prefers gentle and cute young men.

To avoid being the only one to shine brightly, she decided to pretend to be blind, looking left and right. Looking at the spacious interior, she thought to herself, "Truly a luxury car befitting a rich person."

Soon, Xin Yue regretted agreeing to have hot pot with Lu Huan and her boyfriend that night.

This isn't a hotpot dinner; it's a dog-food dinner.

Xin Yue was already stuffed with today's dose of dog food after only half the meat had been cooked in the hot pot.

Gu Zhendong is indeed very gentle, but his gentleness and thoughtfulness are only for Lu Huan, and have nothing to do with others.

After finishing their hotpot, Lu Huan suggested taking Xin Yue back to school.

During this meal, Xin Yue had to observe Gu Zhendong's cold and indifferent expression, so she didn't dare to let Lu Huan take her home.

She waved her hands repeatedly, refusing quickly before Gu Zhendong could even glare at her, "No, no need! There's a subway station right here in this mall, I can take the subway back to school very quickly!"

Even if she had a hundred times the courage, she wouldn't dare let the other party deliver it.

Xin Yue slung her bag over her shoulder and ran off immediately.

The outsiders finally left, leaving only the two of them.

Lu Huan complained to Gu Zhendong, "It's all your fault! You scared them away!"

Gu Zhendong raised an eyebrow. "I didn't say anything!"

He didn't say anything, but his expression was telling; most people couldn't stand his cold demeanor.

Lu Huan pounced over and pinched Gu Zhendong's lip. "Can't you smile a little more?"

Gu Zhendong gave a forced smile, exuding a chilling aura that made him seem even more sinister.

Lu Huan gave up, "Forget it, you'd better stop laughing!"

Lu Huan wanted to sit back in her seat, but Gu Zhendong grabbed her waist with one hand. "Give me a kiss?"

"No!" Lu Huan refused without thinking, and quickly covered her mouth with her hand. "I just finished eating hot pot, and it still smells like hot pot."

Gu Zhendong chuckled softly, leaned over and kissed the back of her hand. "That's good!"

The man's warm lips pressed against the back of her hand, the soft touch making his eyes widen instantly. His breath fell on her face, and in that instant, Lu Huan's heart pounded wildly, as if Gu Zhendong was kissing her lips, not the back of her hand.

This is unbelievable! Even a kiss on the back of the hand can be so alluring.

"You're too..."

Lu Huan felt a burning sensation on the back of her hand. She wanted to say something, but her mind went blank, and she couldn't think of a single word.

My gaze fell on the smile on his lips, and I had to admit that he looked really good when he smiled.

Gu Zhendong is about to go on a business trip and won't be able to see her for about four or five days. He's very reluctant to part with her. "Do you have a lot of classes lately?"

Why are you suddenly asking about her studies?

Lu Huan nodded. "I've had a lot of classes lately, and I'm also busy with voice acting work."

Gu Zhendong hummed in agreement, feeling a slight sense of regret. He had originally intended to take her along, but it seemed he would have to wait until next time.

As they approached the Lu family home, Gu Zhendong reluctantly let go of her. "I'll probably be back this Saturday. I've already discussed the dinner time with my parents, and we've decided on this weekend evening."

Lu Huan naturally had no objections and nodded, "Okay, I understand!"

Lu Huan told Lu Zhong and Guo Yi when they would have dinner.

Overjoyed, Lu Zhong transferred another 100,000 yuan to Lu Huan's account, telling her to dress up nicely and buy more clothes.

Honestly, 100,000 yuan isn't even a fraction of the price of Lu Sangsang's new limited-edition bag.

If it were the original owner of this body, she probably would have started crying and making a scene long ago. Lu Huan didn't say anything. Anyway, she wouldn't take a single penny of this money with her when she left the Lu family.

Gu Zhendong was away on a business trip, which would last about four or five days.

He was very busy. Lu Huan could tell from the phone call that he was busy. She could often hear someone talking on the other end, mostly discussing official business.

Occasionally, Kong Xun could be heard reminding Gu Zhendong to take his medicine. Whenever this happened, Lu Huan would ask fiercely, "Gu Zhendong, are you not taking your medicine again?"

She really didn't understand Gu Zhendong. He clearly had headaches, but he stubbornly refused to take his medicine.

Gu Zhen was suddenly scolded by Lu Huan. He glanced coldly at Kong Xun, who immediately felt a chill run down his spine. He put the medicine on the table and quickly ran away.

Gu Zhendong often suffers from headaches, but lately he's been spending a lot of time with Lu Huan, and he's almost forgotten what that pain feels like.

Gu Zhendong glanced at the medicine on the table and lied without blinking, "I've finished it!"

You're kidding me, eating that fast!

Lu Huan didn't believe it and hung up the phone.

Gu Zhendong frowned, wondering why Lu Huan had hung up the phone and if she was angry, when Lu Huan's video call came in the next second.

She wanted to watch him take the medicine with her own eyes.

Gu Zhendong's lips twitched. Looking at Lu Huan's fierce yet somewhat adorable appearance in the video, he had no choice but to swallow the medicine.

Lu Huan was finally satisfied and breathed a sigh of relief. Her expression softened. "Remember to take your medicine when you have a headache. Don't try to tough it out, or I'll feel bad for you!"

He might refuse to take his medicine properly, which could hasten his early death.

Gu Zhendong was deeply moved, and said in a hoarse voice, "I really want to see you soon."

She was still giving a lecture when this person suddenly started flirting right away, not following the expected script.

Lu Huan pretended to be calm on the surface, but was actually overjoyed inside.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Huan lay on the bed, holding Gun Gun in one arm and her phone in the other. After hesitating for a while, she sent a message to Gu Zhendong.

Actually, I miss you too.

If you do the math, he was only away on a business trip for two days, and they were apart for less than 72 hours.

Why does it feel like each day is an eternity?

Two days later, while Lu Huan was in class, he suddenly received a barrage of messages from Xin Yue.

[Junior, do you know Yu Ting, the host of this year's school anniversary celebration?]

【What's wrong? 】

Yu Ting is the second female lead in the book. Unlike Lu Sangsang, who is a rich girl from a humble background, she is a genuine rich girl from a scholarly family.

Yu Ting and Chu Jun were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Chu Jun's attendance at the school anniversary celebration was entirely at Yu Ting's invitation.

[Yu Ting has suddenly gotten injured and can't host this year's school anniversary celebration!] [Oh.]

Lu Huan was extremely indifferent; what did Yu Ting's injury have to do with her?
