Gao Hui chattered away on the side, and Lu Huan occasionally responded with a few words.

Shen Fei pursed his lips, his dark eyes fixed intently on Lu Huan.

Lu Huan felt very uncomfortable with that intense gaze.

She wanted Shen Fei to look away, so she deliberately raised her eyes to warn him. But Shen Fei not only didn't back down, he even smiled at her.

What's up with this person?

Lu Huan had work to do, but after glancing at all the content of the manuscript, she quickly immersed herself in the emotions, watching the anime while doing the voice acting.

After recording for a whole afternoon, I finally finished recording half of what I had on hand.

Before I knew it, it was already five o'clock.

Lu Huan picked up her phone and saw Gu Zhendong's message. She overheard others in the studio talking about how it was raining outside.

Is it raining?

Lu Huan turned to look out the window. The sky was overcast, and heavy rain was pouring down.

Fortunately, Gu Zhendong was already on his way. Lu Huan sat for a while, received a call from Gu Zhendong, said goodbye to Gao Hui, and hurriedly walked out.

The elevator doors slowly closed, then suddenly a hand reached out and the doors opened again.

Lu Huan looked up at the person who had come in; it was Shen Fei. She gave an awkward smile.

Both of them were headed to the first floor, which was only a few seconds away.

Lu Huan turned her head and pretended to look at the wall. The elevator opened with a ding, and she quickly walked outside.

Just as she reached the door, Shen Feiyang called out loudly from behind, "Sister Lu, you dropped something!"

Lu Huan subconsciously stopped and turned to look at him. "What is that?"

Shen Fei, being tall and long-legged, caught up in a few steps. "I didn't lose anything, I was just kidding!"

Lu Huan frowned, rolled her eyes, and continued walking outside.

Shen Fei said, "Sister Lu, we finally get to see each other, why don't we have dinner together?"

Including this time, they have only met twice and exchanged no more than ten words, yet Shen Fei actually took the initiative to invite her to dinner?

Lu Huan chuckled dryly, "No, I have to go back now!"

"Does Sister Lu look down on me? Is that why she doesn't want to eat with me?" Shen Fei's voice sounded somewhat unhappy.

Lu Huan didn't know much about this male supporting character, but it seemed that he had indeed suffered a lot in his youth.

Are you referring to the issue of looking down on him, specifically the young, handsome male celebrities?

Lu Huan dared not look down on the future top idol, and quickly shook her head, "No, no, it's just that my... boyfriend came to pick me up!"

In her excitement, Lu Huan almost blurted out "my husband".

Shen Fei's eyelids twitched. "Sister Lu, you have a boyfriend?"

"yes!"

"How long have you been talking?"

"It's been a while... Wait, why are you asking this!"

Lu Huan looked at him in confusion, wondering why he was suddenly concerned about her affairs.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to know more about Sister Lu. Did you also meet your boyfriend at Heaven on Earth?"

Lu Huan: ...I guess so!

After all, she was the one who took the initiative to ask Gu Zhendong for his contact information.

Lu Huan's thoughts were involuntarily led by Shen Fei, and she chuckled and shook her head in denial: "No, we met at school!"

"At school, were you classmates with Sister Lu?"

"no!"

What's wrong with Shen Fei? He's getting more and more questions.

It was raining heavily outside. Gu Zhendong's car was parked at the door. Thinking of Lu Huan's situation, he personally held an umbrella to pick her up.

As soon as I got off the bus, I saw two people chatting and laughing at the entrance.

The man's face darkened instantly, and he strode quickly through the rain.

Just as Lu Huan was thinking of an excuse to leave, she saw someone walk in through the door. Her eyes lit up and she quickly walked over.

How did you get in?

Gu Zhendong closed the umbrella and put his arm around her with one hand. "I knew you didn't bring an umbrella, so I came to pick you up!"

As he spoke, he raised his gaze and looked in Chen Fei's direction. "And who is this?"

Gu Zhendong stared at Shen Fei expressionlessly, his eyes filled with a hint of inquiry and scrutiny.

The man in front of me—no, he can't even be called a man, he's just a little kid who hasn't even grown all his hair yet.

Lu Huan knew Gu Zhendong too well. The moment his eyes darkened, Lu Huan knew he was jealous again.

To avoid any misunderstanding, Lu Huan quickly explained, "He's an employee of the studio, and we just happened to come down in the elevator!"

Shen Fei seemed completely oblivious to Gu Zhendong's unfriendly gaze, and greeted him with a smile, "Are you Sister Lu's boyfriend? Hello, my name is Shen Fei."

Sister Lu? Boyfriend?

Shen Fei's affectionate address of "Sister Lu" displeased Gu Zhendong, who turned his head, glanced at Lu Huan out of the corner of his eye, and corrected her, "I am her husband."

A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Fei's eyes, then he smiled and said, "But I haven't heard Sister Lu mention that she's married?"

Lu Huan: ...Speak properly, why are you taking it out on her?

Lu Huan met the man's displeased gaze and gave a dry laugh, unsure how to explain.

Gu Zhendong was unhappy, but he wouldn't vent his anger on Lu Huan in front of outsiders.

He gripped Lu Huan's wrist with one hand, applying slight pressure, as if to say: I'll settle the score with you when we get back.

"So now you know she's a married woman!"

"..." Shen Fei was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Huan, "Sister Lu, is this true?"

With Gu Zhendong right in front of him, how could Lu Huan dare to deny it?

She nodded rapidly, like a chick pecking at rice, "Yes, he's my husband!"

Shen Fei raised an eyebrow, quite surprised, "I didn't expect that Sister Lu went to Heaven on Earth to play with so many handsome young men, so she already has a husband!"

Lu Huan: !

Was Shen Fei deliberately setting a trap for her to fall into?

Lu Huan's eyes widened as she felt Gu Zhendong grip her hand even tighter.

She looked up, shaking her head with a mix of tears and laughter, denying it to Gu Zhendong: "No..."

Gu Zhendong smiled gently, "It's getting late, let's go home!"

The man gripped her hand tightly, not allowing her to break free, and the two walked outside.

Not content with just digging a hole, Shen Fei stood behind the two of them and shouted loudly, "Sister Lu, how about we add each other on WeChat and play together later?"

Add me as a WeChat friend, my ass!

Lu Huan felt like she wanted to die right now.

Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Gu Zhendong, whose gentle smile vanished, replaced by a gloomy and indifferent expression.

Oh no, she's really doomed now!

After getting in the car, Gu Zhendong's large face was placed in front of her, his dark eyes reflecting Lu Huan's timid face. "Honey, I can explain it to you!"

Gu Zhendong placed his hand on her waist, his fingertips hooking inside her shirt, caressing her delicate skin. "When did you go to Heaven on Earth?"

He knew that Lu Huan used to frequent those places, but that was all in the past, and he could let it go.

Whether Lu Huan went or not, Gu Zhendong would find out with a simple investigation. Not daring to lie, he honestly nodded, "She went!"

When did you go?

"I went there with Chu Han not long ago!"

"but……"

"Was that guy you just met while drinking?"

"Um……"

"Then how do you plan to explain this to me?"

"It's not what you think. Chu Han insisted that I go that night, and those young men were all brought over by Chu Han. I had nothing to do with them."

Lu Huan frowned and tried to shirk responsibility, saying that the group of young men were all found by Chu Han and had nothing to do with her.

Besides, she didn't drink with those guys when they were drinking, and she rejected everyone who tried to chat her up.

Lu Huan honestly told Gu Zhendong everything that had happened back then.

The man frowned as he listened. Wasn't it the night he was away on his business trip that Lu Huan's answers to his questions were contradictory?

So she wasn't with Chu Jun, but drinking with a group of young men!

Gu Zhendong's face darkened further. "You're happy drinking with a bunch of young boys?"

If she dares to nod, or say she's happy, Gu Zhendong would dare to twist her head off right here and use it as a football.

He shook his head vigorously, "Of course not! I swear I really didn't drink with them, and I didn't talk to them much either!"

"Then what's the deal with this Shen Fei?"

The problem has come full circle; meeting Shen Fei was truly an accident.

"I didn't know I'd run into him here. If I had known, I wouldn't have come!"

"You don't have to do it now."

"That won't do!" Lu Huan's eyes widened. "I've already signed the agreement, and I'll have to pay compensation if I breach it."

Lu Huan's breach of contract penalty was a piece of cake for Gu Zhendong. "I'll pay whatever it is."

What a wealthy and powerful person!

Lu Huan had gone to great lengths to secure this collaboration with Xin Yue, and if she were to breach the contract now, her reputation would suffer greatly.

Lu Huan has now learned a killer move to deal with Gu Zhendong – acting cute!

She hugged the man's waist, squeezed out a few tears, and looked quite convincing as she pitifully cried out, "Honey, I'm in a little pain."

Gu Zhendong: ...

The man's cold face clearly indicated that he wasn't buying her sob story, but when Lu Huan shed tears and wiped them on his shirt, crying pitifully, Gu Zhendong obviously couldn't take it anymore.

His cold expression softened, and he reached out his hand, asking, "Where does it hurt?"

Lu Huan glared at him resentfully, her teary eyes saying: Where else could it be but there!

Lu Huan was actually in a lot of pain, especially when walking, as the constant friction made her skin feel like it was about to break.

So this afternoon, she hardly moved at all, and if she could sit, she would never stand.

Gu Zhendong understood immediately, "I'll go buy some medicine later and apply it to you when we get back."

Lu Huan hummed in agreement with tears in her eyes, then snuggled her face into Gu Zhendong's arms. "I still want to eat some cake."

Gu Zhendong naturally had to satisfy his wife's cravings.

I first stopped at a pharmacy, bought the medicine, and then made a special trip to a cake shop.

Thinking that there were other people at home, I bought several extra small cakes of various flavors.

Back home, Gu Zhendong didn't pursue the matter further, and the anxiety that had been hanging over me finally subsided, allowing me to breathe a sigh of relief.

The old man was getting on in years and couldn't eat too many sweets, so Yan Rong used the excuse that eating sweets would make him fat and let Lu Huan eat them all by himself.

Before this, the Gu family was quite worried that Gu Zhendong would never be able to get married in his life.

Fortunately, he finally figured it out and realized he needed to know how to please his wife and buy some small cakes to win over his girlfriend.

Especially in the last two days, they noticed that Gu Zhendong's complexion wasn't as bad as usual, and wondered if marrying Lu Huan might have a purported effect of bringing good luck.

Regardless, the Gu family members grew to like Lu Huan even more.

Lu Huan ate a small cake and felt a little full.

At night, after Lu Huan finished showering, she noticed a bag on the coffee table filled with all sorts of candies.

Lu Huan looked at the man in surprise, "Where did these candies come from?"

"I bought this last night. Didn't you keep asking for candy?"

Do I have one?

Lu Huan looked bewildered. She seemed to have drunk too much again last night, and her memories were fragmented and blurry.

She couldn't really remember the part about wanting candy, but she had a very clear impression of how the man bullied her afterwards.

Gu Zhendong nodded, "Last night you kept asking for candy, and you cried when I didn't give it to you, so I had the maid go out and buy some in the middle of the night. You can ask her if you don't believe me."

Lu Huan: ... She simply couldn't imagine herself crying because she couldn't get candy.

In my memory, she was never someone who cried so easily.

Lu Huan was skeptical, but randomly tore one open and popped it into her mouth. It was sweet and tasted like glucose.

Regardless of the truth of last night, all the candy is hers now.

Lu Huan unwrapped another strawberry-flavored candy and held it to Gu Zhendong's lips, "Want to try some?"

Gu Zhendong doesn't like sweets, so he frowned and, meeting Lu Huan's eager gaze, couldn't bear to refuse.

He opened his mouth and took Lu Huan's fingers in as well. Lu Huan was startled and never expected that this man would be so unfair and even bite someone's fingers.

The strawberry-flavored candy spread across her lips, and the man's gaze toward her was burning and sensual, as if he were tasting not candy, but Lu Huan's body.

Meeting the man's gaze, Lu Huan hurriedly took a few steps back. The man followed closely behind, pressing her against the edge of the sofa. "It's quite sweet, want to try some?"

What to taste?

Before Lu Huan could even ask, she met Gu Zhendong's malicious gaze and instantly understood what he meant by "try it".

"No way!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man cupped the back of her head with his hand and leaned down to kiss her.

He did not consult her opinion.

Men who have tasted the sweetness of the flesh seem to be naturally skilled, and Lu Huan is increasingly unable to resist them. She feels like a fish that has been pulled ashore, desperately thirsty, unable to return to the water no matter how much she struggles, and can only be at their mercy.

Last night was her first time, and even though she drank some alcohol to ease the pain, she still felt unwell after fully waking up.

The man's hand suddenly slipped inside, warmer than her body temperature. Lu Huan jolted awake from the moment of passion, quickly pushing him away. Her face flushed, she lowered her head and softly scolded him, "No, it still hurts down there!"

Gu Zhendong took a deep breath and calmed down. "I'll apply the medicine for you."

Let's not do it, it's too embarrassing.

Lu Huan refused to let Gu Zhendong help her no matter what, and spent most of the day in the bathroom by herself.

Gu Zhendong was already sitting on the bed, pretending to look at his phone. Listening to the sounds from the bathroom, he looked up at her and asked, "Are you done drying off?"

Lu Huan gave a shy "hmm," not daring to meet the man's eyes, and climbed into bed after lifting the covers.

Then Gu Zhendong asked suspiciously, "Do you want me to check you out?"

Lu Huan: ...

Lu Huan's hand, which was supporting her on the bed, went limp, and with a muffled thud, she fell into the covers.

Listen to what he's saying!

"No, no need!"

Gu Zhendong spoke in a tone that seemed to be concerned for her, "I'm doing this for your own good. What if you haven't taken care of some parts and it still hurts tomorrow?"
