Shang Wu closed the ledger, understanding Lu Rang's good intentions.
What she was holding was not a heavy burden of trouble, but a bigger stage that Lu Rang had given her.
She also believed that her abilities were far more than just for revenge or to plunder everything that rightfully belonged to the Zhou family.
She would be more than happy to prove her worth at a higher level.
"Okay, I promise you."
...
It was getting late, so the two of them stayed at another villa.
The servants in the villa all voluntarily left.
When Qianjue brought them the food, his face was so ugly that it looked like the two of them owed him eight million.
He watched Shang Wu go upstairs to take a shower before turning his gaze to Lu Rang.
"Young Master, the fiancée that the master found for you is in Wanhu. Are you really not going to meet her? She comes from a prominent family, is beautiful and wealthy, and is just as good as Miss Shang."
Lu Rang glanced at it: "You like it?"
Qianjue was stunned for a moment: "What?"
“Since you admire it so much, why don’t I help you get it?” Lu Rang’s gaze held a hint of displeasure and warning.
Under his oppressive gaze, Qianjue dared not utter a sound, lowered her head, and turned to leave.
When Shang Wu came out after taking a shower, there was a set of pure white pajamas placed at the foot of the bed in the room.
She went over and changed her clothes, then went outside and found that Lu Rang was not there.
Shang Wu went downstairs and looked around. She saw the untouched food on the table and was about to go to the bathroom when she suddenly heard a soft, aggrieved voice coming from outside.
"Why? What's wrong with me that you won't want me?"
She paused in her steps.
Is there going to be a good show?
Shang Wu tiptoed behind the glass door of the villa's living room and saw Lu Rang standing with his back to her under the light.
Facing the light was a girl in a limited-edition luxury dress, tears streaming down her face, clutching her crocodile skin bag with a pitiful expression.
Shang Wu glanced over at it.
That bag is a one-of-a-kind limited edition, costing at least two million.
She knew all the wealthy heiresses in the entire city.
It's safe to say that this young lady is not part of the wealthy and beautiful social circle in Lincheng.
It's possible that Lu Zheng specifically introduced him to Lu Rang.
Indeed, Lu Zheng was terrified that women from Lincheng would try to climb up the social ladder by marrying into the Yu family. They would only look for women from other provinces and wouldn't affect or scheme for the benefits of the Yu family.
"Say something, Lu Rang! Please, please, give it a try with me, okay? Five years ago, I came to the Yu family as a guest with my father, and I liked you very much then." The girl's tears fell like pearls.
Lu Rang remained unmoved, his voice cold: "I have a girlfriend."
“You can break up, she’s not your fiancée.” The girl looked at him, unable to understand.
Lu Rang paused, then frowned expressionlessly: "Don't bother me, go back."
He turned to leave.
The girl suddenly asked, "Is she here? Inside? I want to see who she is, and what makes her think she can compare to me!"
Shang Wu pushed open the door and went out.
"Who's staying up all night, bothering my man here?"
She stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Lu Rang.
Lu Rang turned his head to look at her.
Shang Wu had just finished showering, her long hair loosely hanging down to her waist. Without makeup, she looked even more charming, and her loose pajamas subtly revealed a beautiful scene.
Lu Rang's gaze lingered on her neckline for a moment, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
Shang Wu curled her lips into a smile, deliberately wrapped her arms around his neck, pressed her body close to his, and said in a coquettish voice, "I've been waiting for you. I've already taken a bath. Are we going upstairs or not?"
After saying that, she finally deigned to give me a look: "Who are you?"
The girl's body visibly stiffened for a moment.
Lu Rang put his arm around Shang Wu's waist, a hint of a smile in his eyes: "Miss Zhang, aren't you leaving? I'm going upstairs with my girlfriend to spend the night."
The girl's face turned extremely pale, and she bit her lip, saying, "You've gone too far! You've all gone too far!"
She stomped her foot and ran away.
Seeing the bodyguards follow, Shang Wu wasn't worried about the girl's safety. She immediately released Lu Rang to prevent his still-damp hair from wetting his clothes. "Who is she?"
A dark glint flashed in Lu Rang's eyes as his gaze followed her, sliding from her eyes to her lips and then to her collarbone.
Realizing that his gaze was a little strange, Shang Wu coughed lightly, her face turning slightly red.
"I'm asking you a question, don't look at me like that..."
Lu Rang suddenly picked her up and carried her around the waist.
Shang Wu exclaimed in surprise and hugged Lu Rang's neck.
Lu Rang asked in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid of catching a cold without shoes?"
Shang Wu glanced at her dangling feet and realized that she had indeed forgotten to wear slippers.
She nestled obediently in Lu Rang's arms and remained still.
Lu Rang's arms were strong and powerful, his chest pressed tightly against Shang Wu's body, and he took each step steadily.
After entering the bedroom, Lu Rang kicked the door shut, but did not immediately put down the person in his arms.
In the dim light of the bedside lamp, his eyes were deep and unsettling, filled with a chilling emotion.
"You can put me down now," Shang Wu said softly, suddenly feeling a little afraid to look him in the eye.
Lu Rang tightened his arms around her and asked in a hoarse voice, "What if you don't want to let go?"
Shang Wu was stunned for a moment.
Time seemed to freeze at that moment, with only their ambiguous atmosphere gradually flowing between them.
Shang Wu's heart was pounding so fast that her cheeks felt hot.
What do you want to do?
Lu Rang slowly lowered his head and touched his forehead to her face.
"I've never seen you so shy before; you're even more charming than I imagined."
Shang Wu held her breath, watching him get closer and closer, without resisting.
Just as the two were about to kiss, their phone rang.
Shang Wu was so shocked she almost fell out of Lu Rang's arms.
Lu Rang was interrupted and was somewhat displeased. He gently placed her on the edge of the bed.
