Two hours earlier, a cruise ship that was about to reach international waters had turned around and was heading back at full speed.

The owner of the cruise ship is Ji Mingjing.

Gu Yunzhen was also there.

Both men felt uneasy. When Gu Yunzhen went to Ji Mingjing and asked to return, Ji Mingjing agreed without hesitation.

But Gu Yunzhen still felt it was too slow, so he ordered Gu Shiyi to bring in a helicopter.

Once the helicopter arrived, Ji Mingjing hopped on Gu Yunzhen's helicopter and flew together to the capital city.

Just as the helicopter was circling over the Gu residence.

Shangguan Wu, Yan Yirou, and Gu Chenye suddenly sat up from the sofa, panting heavily.

The three looked at each other, all feeling a sense of relief at having survived a disaster.

Gu Chenye asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Yan Yirou shook her head.

"I'm fine too." Shangguan Wu leaned over, picked up her phone from the coffee table, and called Du Wei.

As soon as the call connected, she asked, "Du Wei, where are you?"

"Miss, I'm patrolling the perimeter," Du Wei replied.

Shangguan Wu helped himself up from the sofa and instructed, "Take some people to the vicinity of the Chinese medicine shop and look for Rongrong immediately. Call me when you find her."

Du Wei looked at the four young masters and others getting off the helicopter and replied, "Yes, Miss."

After hanging up the phone, Du Wei said goodbye to Gu Shiyi and then called the four of them to go out.

Ji Mingjing contacted Rongrong's bodyguards from the helicopter, but couldn't get any information about Rongrong's whereabouts. He saw Shangguan Wu's bodyguards leaving with their men and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Du Wei replied, "Miss Rong told us to go to the vicinity of the Chinese medicine pharmacy to find Miss Rong."

Ji Mingjing immediately turned around: "I'll go with you!"

Gu Yunzhen ignored him and strode towards the villa.

In the study, Shangguan Wu stood still for a moment, holding her phone, before walking towards the door.

"Misty Baby, wait for me!"

Yan Yirou followed her out of the study.

Meanwhile, Gu Yunzhen had already gone upstairs.

As Shangguan Wu opened the door, he saw a man walking towards him in the corridor. His handsome, fair face was tense, his thin lips were pressed into a straight line, and he exuded a cold aura that kept strangers at bay.

It is Gu Yunzhen.

Her husband is back!

With eyes full of joy, Shangguan Wu lifted her foot and ran towards the man.

Looking at her radiant smile, Gu Yunzhen felt the chill in his body recede like a receding tide. He stopped in his tracks, opened his arms, and pulled her tightly into his embrace the moment she threw herself at him.

The two didn't speak, but held each other tightly, their affection for one another flowing naturally between them, creating a warm and beautiful scene.

Yan Yirou didn't want to disturb them, so she silently retreated towards the study, but accidentally bumped into Gu Chenye's chest.

"you……"

Gu Chenye had barely uttered a single word when Yan Yirou quickly turned around and covered his mouth with her hand.

Gu Chenye raised an eyebrow.

Yan Yirou pushed him into the study and closed the door.

In the corridor, Gu Yunzhen touched Shangguan Wu's face, and after a moment, he nodded and kissed the lips he had longed for.

Shangguan Wu's long eyelashes trembled slightly, then she closed her eyes and responded to his kiss.

Gu Yunzhen held her neck with his large hand and kissed her for a few minutes before letting go, but his fingers caressed her neck as if he were touching a beloved treasure.

"Madam, I've missed you."

Gu Yunzhen whispered in her ear, his voice sexy and magnetic.

Oh~

It sounds absolutely amazing!

His hot breath sprayed into her ear, and Shangguan Wu felt half of her body go numb. She leaned weakly against him, as if she had no strength left. If he hadn't held her waist, she probably wouldn't have been able to stand up.

Is she a little... spineless?

Shangguan Wu rubbed against his chest affectionately, her eyes crinkling with laughter. She just really liked him; so what if he was pathetic?

Gu Yunzhen's Adam's apple bobbed, and he suddenly bent down, picked her up, and carried her to the bedroom.

Shangguan Wu casually hooked her arms around his neck, her watery eyes staring straight at him, as if she couldn't get enough of looking at him.

How could Gu Yunzhen tolerate this?

He had been missing her terribly for three days, and when he returned and saw her so enthusiastic, he felt as if he were enveloped in a ball of fire, his whole body burning with heat.

"Madam, open the door."

Gu Yunzhen's voice was a little hoarse.

Shangguan Wu reached out and opened the bedroom door. Gu Yunzhen walked in and kicked the door shut with her long leg.

Afterwards, Gu Yunzhen gently laid her down on the large bed.

He placed his hands on either side of her head, his deep, dark eyes gazing at her with the expression of a lion king of the jungle seeing his favorite prey, wishing he could devour it in a second.

Shangguan Wu's face gradually flushed red as he stared at her, making her look exceptionally delicate and alluring, which he couldn't take his eyes off her.

Just as she was about to look away, his handsome face suddenly loomed closer, and then he kissed and fondled her lips.

Gu Yunzhen licked her soft lips, lingering over them.

A subtle, enchanting atmosphere gradually filled the air.

Shangguan Wu's collar was wide open, revealing her fair skin... Suddenly, Gu Yunzhen's handsome face tightened, and he stood up and strode towards the bathroom.

The sound of rushing water came, and Shangguan Wu gasped for breath with his mouth open like a fish out of water.

It took her a long time to recover.

The bathroom was still completely dark, with only the sound of water coming from inside.

Shangguan Wu curled her lips into a smile.

Tsk, it almost escalated into a full-blown conflict.

She touched her belly and said with a smile, "Baby, let your daddy take his time washing up. We'll go next door."

Shangguan Wu took the clothes to the guest room bathroom, took a quick shower, washed her underwear, and then returned to the bedroom.
