I didn't get to eat.

"Sun Qian." Lu Yushi entered the room without turning his head, leaving Sun Qian and Gu Nan looking at each other in bewilderment.

That figure was extremely indifferent, regardless of how Gu Nan viewed it.

Looking at Sun Qian again, he rubbed the golden "Ren" character on his pocket, silently encouraging himself, then turned around with a smile: "Miss Gu, please come in."

Stepping through the door, the lead-gray decor exuded a sense of luxury. Gu Nan casually glanced around before stopping in front of the screen. She didn't know the value of the various ornaments, but a vase with a peony scroll pattern in the middle of the partition was all too familiar to her.

A genuine artifact from the Yuan Dynasty.

It's very valuable.

She used to hold it when she was a child, and after all these years, the surface of the bottle is still as smooth as it was back then.

"Miss Gu, please be careful," Sun Qian warned, afraid that she might accidentally cause the porcelain vase to die.

Gu Nan tilted her head and asked, "Am I your boss's girlfriend?"

Sun Qian: "Yes."

"Do I have the right to dispose of this bottle?"

Sun Qian: "No."

Do you have a girlfriend?

Sun Qian waved his hands frantically, his face full of "What nonsense are you talking about?": "My girlfriend has no right to dispose of it either."

Their eyes met, Gu Nan's smile faded, and she lingered on his face for half a minute with a look that seemed to say she was looking at an idiot, before putting down the porcelain bottle: "That's good."

Sun Qian, puzzled, glanced at the closed study door upstairs and kindly said, "The boss is in a good mood today. If Miss Gu is interested, you can ask him."

Gu Nan waved her hand. Of course Lu Yushi was in a good mood. He got such a great deal for free. Who wouldn't be in a bad mood?

Where is Lu Yushi?

"President Lu is working in his study. Just let me know if you need anything," Sun Qian said diligently.

Gu Nan: "It's the middle of the night, can't you go home and sleep?"

Sun Qian pointed to himself: "Me? Don't worry, I'll leave after you've rested."

Gu Nan clicked her tongue in disbelief, raised her hand to her forehead, and muttered to herself, "How can there be such an oblivious assistant?"

"Back to the first question, am I your boss's girlfriend?"

“Yes.” Sun Qian didn’t understand when the question-and-answer game started, or if it was still a loop of questions.

"Do you think boyfriends and girlfriends need their own space when they're together?"

Sun Qian stiffly turned her head, looking upstairs, and after finishing cooking two dishes, asked, "Isn't the progress too fast?"

He was a witness to their relationship, and his witnessing time did not exceed five hours in total.

Five hours ago, Gu Nan was full of complaints and resentment towards her boss; three hours ago, she called him "husband" so affectionately; now she's demanding her own space.

Whether Gu Nan wants to get rid of him is currently unknown, but he has reason to suspect that Gu Nan wants to take advantage of his sleep to get rid of her boss.

"You can leave now, don't disturb our romance."

Sun Qian's gaze fell on her face, then slowly slid to behind her, and he looked up: "President Lu."

Gu Nan slowly turned around and looked up.

At the corner of the stairs, Lu Yushi hurried downstairs. His troublesome coat and tie were nowhere to be seen, and the only shirt he wore was missing the top button, with the collar half turned up.

A strong business style can be transformed into a casual look simply by adding a tie.

He stood under the cool lighting, shadows seeping into his chest through the ripped buttons, making his broad collarbones appear even more defined. Even the thin fabric betrayed him, unable to conceal the clearly defined lines of his abdominal muscles.

The room echoed with the sound of footsteps.

Gu Nan turned her eyes away and gritted her teeth. This wasn't stepping on stairs; it was stepping on her heart.

What else could it be but seduction!

"Let's go back." Lu Yushi turned his head and instructed the servant, "Prepare a guest room."

Some footsteps faded into the distance, while others drew closer.

Gu Nan swore to God that she really hated the scent of agarwood, but it actually smelled really good on Lu Yushi.

"Is the guest room on the right-hand side of the third floor okay?" the maid asked.

Lu Yushi did not answer, but gestured to the servant to ask Gu Nan.

"Why?" Gu Nan suddenly looked up, her gaze level with Lu Yushi's collarbone due to her height.

Even God wants her to eat; she has no choice but to eat.

Shouldn't we share a room?

The maid lowered her chin slightly, controlling her facial expression well, and obediently bowed her head.

Gu Nan felt that they were secretly making fun of her, so she raised her hand to rub her nose, avoided their gaze, and tried to put on an indifferent tone: "Oh, it's a custom in my hometown that couples only sleep in separate rooms when there are problems in their relationship."

The maid looked at her questioningly: "Young Master?"

The lights cast a blinding glare, and Lu Yushi's sharp gaze swept over Gu Nan's face, scrutinizing her entire body. He parted his thin lips slightly and said, "Hmm."

Gu Nan looked up in surprise. Could a meal really go so smoothly?

"Bring a set of women's toiletries to my room." Lu Yushi raised an eyebrow. "What's with that expression?"

"Ahem," Gu Nan smiled calmly, revealing eight standard teeth, "You're quite unguarded."

Lu Yushi turned around slowly and said quietly, "Respect the customs of your hometown."

"Bang." Gu Nan stepped on the stair railing with her left foot, grabbing it to steady herself in her haste.

Three seconds later, regret started from the top of my head and went down to my feet.

Why is she grabbing the handrail? Why doesn't she grab someone?

This person is definitely being sarcastic and sarcastic.

Unfortunately, she couldn't find any evidence on Lu Yushi's face, and hurriedly followed Lu Yushi back to his room.

I stumbled as I entered, tripped over the carpet.

"Is this also a custom in your hometown?"

His hand finally reached up to the waist he had long coveted.

Not an ounce of excess fat.

She feigned ignorance: "What?"

The maid knocked lightly on the door: "Young master, the toiletries have been brought over."

Gu Nan took the food, her eyes filled with longing: "Where's the restroom?"

Lu Yushi pointed in a direction, and Gu Nan, without stopping, impatiently and anxiously pushed open the bathroom door, muttering to herself: "This faithful woman wishes to have a balanced diet of meat and vegetables throughout her life, so that I may have a big meal tonight. Jade Emperor, Queen Mother of the West, Guanyin of Fertility... Guanyin of Fertility? Guanyin of Fertility won't do, Amen."

She finished quickly, encouraging the hairdryer as she dried her hair, urging it to go all out.

Although the hairdryer wasn't familiar with her, it was quite sensible.

After blowing until it stopped dripping, Gu Nan solemnly thanked it, put it back in its original place, and loosened the waist rope in front of the mirror.

She wasn't the type to fuss over things; if she couldn't figure something out, she would follow her heart. She didn't see the conflict between minding Lu Yushi's closeness and wanting to sleep with him.

She loosely tied her deep-V silk pajamas at an angle, adjusting the drawstring to accentuate her figure without being overly seductive and lest she lose the desire to explore further.

Pushing open the door, the lambskin slippers felt like sinking into clouds as they stepped on the carpet; the frosted glass door was of superior quality and equally silent.

Lu Yushi was changing clothes with his back to her. She deliberately kept her steps as light as possible, admiring the contours of his shoulder blades and the clearly defined muscles in his broad arms.

She could see the power hidden beneath the lines, like a lurking tiger or wolf, which, despite not making any movement, could arouse the observer's sense of danger.

It felt like being on a grassland, surrounded by danger, and for a moment you couldn't tell if you were the hunter or the prey.

"Have you made up your mind?" Lu Yushi suddenly asked.

It's even harder to tell them apart now.

Gu Nan pouted. There was still a completely naked back in front of her. She forced herself to walk past without looking to the side and muttered, "Do you have eyes in the back of your head?"

Lu Yushi replied irrelevantly, "I'm getting dressed now."

Gu Nan looked up, and the sight of her eyes directly facing her was even more striking.

She really wanted to share this with someone; it was definitely seduction.

Seduction without any artificial enhancement.

She has always enjoyed helping others: "I can't refuse your kind offer. Since you have this habit, I can reluctantly watch for a while longer."

"Tch." Lu Yushi snorted indifferently and put on his clothes in front of her.

His long arms stretched out, pulling on his abdominal muscles. The neatly arranged lines resembled surging waves, progressing in layers, and with his movements, the crisscrossing grooves deepened.

Faced with the choice between continuing to watch and covering her face, Gu Nan chose to cover her face and continue watching.

The hem of the pure white shirt was folded up and hung limply at the waistband. The owner of the shirt didn't notice, and Gu Nan kindly reminded him, "You're not dressed properly."

I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but Lu Yushi’s gaze seemed to carry a hint of wariness.

Gu Nan said that she would never allow herself to be wronged for doing good deeds, so she immediately took a big step forward and reached out to the corner of the garment.

This time it wasn't a hallucination; without any warning, the owner of the hem of the garment took a large step back.

She frowned in disbelief.

They're really on guard!

Where is justice?

Her body, having lost its footing, plummeted straight down. Her pupils dilated, and she had no time to react.

As she plummeted, she cursed under her breath, "The carpet is her nemesis."

While waiting for a moment to fully embrace the carpet, he "politely" greeted Lu Yushi's entire family.

He seduced her by unbuttoning his shirt and exposing his back. She was kind and generous, willingly becoming Jiang Taigong's fish. Seeing that things were going smoothly, why bother with any chastity arch?

Where's your face?!

A warmth spread across her waist, gravity seemed to lose its effect, and Gu Nan snorted, "At least you still have some conscience."

The support point disappeared for the second time in the next second.

Without a word, Gu Nan grabbed the clothes in front of her, steadied herself, and violently ripped out the folded corner of the garment, saying righteously, "Look carefully, don't wrong an innocent person."

"A good person?" Lu Yushi's voice was playful as his gaze moved down her face.

It took half a day to get there.

Gu Nan held up the evidence and looked up. Her Adam's apple bobbed, her thick eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes were like bottomless pools.

"you……"

His broad figure took half a step forward, blocking her way like a wall.

The feel and smell of the wall were her favorite things.

She closed her eyes and said, "Eat when the food comes."

The fingers that were tugging at the hem of her clothes twirled, then slipped inside. The touch was slightly cool, and the burning rationality clashed with it, causing her blood to boil instead.

A palm landed on his waist, drawing in and pushing the intense heat to its peak.

Their breathing became heavy and muffled, indistinguishable from each other's. Strands of hair fell on their shoulders and bodies, tickling their skin.

Feeling the foreign object in front of her, her face flushed, and she took half a step back.

Open your eyes, lower your head.

I'm awake now.

Four words lingered in my mind.

She wanted to have a nice meal, but it didn't have to be this good.

"You...you...you go take a shower first." After saying that, she turned her back, strained her ears to listen for footsteps, and then the door closed.

She slumped onto the bed, stared blankly at the ceiling for 30 seconds, then unconsciously raised her hand to gesture, murmuring, "So big."

He stared at his two palms in disbelief, then slapped himself on the forehead.

Ye Xu once said that you shouldn't choose someone too small the first time, as it will make you lose interest, nor should you choose someone too big, as it can easily cause psychological trauma.

She rubbed her chest and began to acknowledge Ye Xu's feelings; she did indeed have some lingering issues to resolve.

She also doubted her own memory; she clearly had seen her second brother before!

She still remembered the date: August 13th, 9 PM. Her second brother peeked out from under his trousers, and she was a bit rude, turning her back without greeting him.

But I glanced at it and it shouldn't be the size I'm wearing under my pajama pants today.

"He's been taking hormones, hasn't he?" he cursed, scrambling to his feet and tapping Ye Xu's profile picture on his phone.

Is it really bad if the first time is too big?

Ye Xu sent a voice message, gently but through gritted teeth: "My phone is screen mirroring."

...

Gu Nan clasped her hands together, indicating that she had already eaten the pre-meal snacks and would discuss the main meal later.

I opened my eyes, grabbed my phone in one hand and my coat in the other, and rushed out of the room.

The night wind lashed my face, the flush faded, and my cell phone rang softly.

"Where are you?"

Gu Nan cleared her throat and said obediently, "I'm sorry, I remembered wrong. My family doesn't have that custom."

After a minute of silence, Lu Yushi's voice was deep and cold: "How do I solve this?"

Gu Nan: "..."

"Your holy right hand."

Silence again.

Gu Nan kindly advised, "If you have a different hand preference, you can use your left hand as well."

"Gu Nan."

Gu Nan rubbed her forehead, feeling a bit overwhelmed. Lu Yushi's tone sounded like he could kill, and what had she done wrong? She just wanted to have a meal.

In order not to offend Lu Yushi, he told the truth: "No, it's too big. You'll have to deal with it yourself."
