"Lu Huan?"
The man at the door called her name.
His voice was deep, and you could tell he was angry.
Lu Huan immediately shook off Xu Wei's hand with a grim expression, but Xu Wei held on tightly and she couldn't shake him off for a moment.
He said impatiently, "I said I don't like it, and that's it. Why would I joke about it?"
"Chu Jun isn't the most handsome man in the world, so why do I have to be obsessed with him?" Lu Huan scoffed, pointing at Gu Zhendong in front of her, and said to Xu Wei without thinking, "Even if Chu Jun is the most handsome man in the world, my friend is the most handsome man in the entire universe!"
Gu Zhendong is indeed more handsome than Chu Jun. His eyes, nose, and mouth are very much to her liking. Otherwise, she wouldn't have abandoned Chu Jun and gone to confess to Gu Zhendong back in the Heaven and Earth nightclub.
The corners of Gu Zhendong's mouth turned up almost imperceptibly when he was being pointed at.
Is he the most handsome man in the entire universe?
Gu Zhendong only wanted to come out and check on Lu Huan's condition, but he didn't expect to see such a scene as soon as he came out.
The strange man was pestering Lu Huan, a lewd smile on his lips.
The man grew increasingly angry. His gaze shifted to Lu Huan's face, and seeing her displeased expression as she looked at the stranger, the anger that had been building up in his chest slowly dissipated.
Lu Huan asked in surprise, "Why did you come out?"
Gu Zhendong strode over, his gaze fixed intently on Lu Huan's face, and casually made up an excuse: "I just came out to answer a phone call."
A man of high moral character would naturally refuse to admit that he went out specifically to find Lu Huan.
"Are you very familiar with this person?"
Gu Zhendong questioned, but Xu Wei still held onto Lu Huan's hand tightly, his dark eyes filled with icy coldness.
The moment Gu Zhendong appeared, the air around him turned chilly, and the temperature dropped several degrees.
The man's face darkened, and Lu Huan quickly denied it: "I don't know him."
Three words completely severed her ties with Xu Wei.
It's unlikely that they didn't know each other; Gu Zhendong clearly heard the two of them mention Chu Jun.
Gu Zhendong responded in a low voice, "The dishes are all served. Let's go back and eat."
He looked up at Xu Wei with a deep gaze, emphasizing the word "we".
Gu Zhendong and Xu Wei are clearly not on the same wavelength. In addition, Gu Zhendong is low-key and mysterious, and rarely appears in public. Naturally, Xu Wei does not know the famous Gu Zhendong.
Xu Wei has been around since childhood, dealing with all sorts of people, and is adept at reading people.
Xu Wei was displeased with the man who had suddenly appeared and was full of hostility towards him.
When he met Lu Huan, this person was still nowhere to be found!
Xu Wei deliberately emphasized: "I have known Lu Huan for many years."
Gu Zhendong's dark eyes were deep as he turned to Lu Huan, his gaze questioning her: Is that so?
If Xu Wei hadn't stopped her halfway, she would have already enjoyed a delicious meal. Her immediate priority was to get rid of this man named Xu Wei.
Lu Huan put on a weak, pitiful, and helpless expression, her eyes instantly welling up with tears as she looked at Gu Zhendong: "I have amnesia, I don't know him at all."
Gu Zhendong looked satisfied upon hearing Lu Huan's words, but his expression remained cold towards Xu Wei. "She says she doesn't know you, so why aren't you letting go?"
My gaze fell on Xu Wei's hands, which were so cold they seemed to freeze one's fingers numb.
Xu Wei was stunned by Gu Zhendong's gaze and unconsciously let go of Lu Huan.
By the time he realized what was happening, Lu Huan, who had been rescued, had already hidden behind Gu Zhendong.
Lu Huan grabbed the man's sleeve, peeked out, and whispered, "Don't waste time here with strangers. Let's go back and eat."
As Lu Huan spoke, she glanced at Xu Wei with disdain.
Gu Zhendong suppressed his gloomy demeanor and replied gently, "Let's go."
He shielded Lu Huan's lower back with one hand while looking up at Xu Wei, his eyes warning him not to come any closer to Lu Huan.
It wasn't until the two returned to the private room and stood in the brightly lit corridor that they realized what had happened.
Xu Wei's face turned ashen with anger, his eyes fixed fiercely on the private room number.
Is he a stranger?
The atmosphere in the other private room was very lively.
Chu Jun had arranged a dinner with some friends at Xu Wei's restaurant.
Not long after Xu Wei left, he returned with a gloomy expression and sat down in a chair.
Some busybodies asked, "What's wrong with you? You've been out for a while and you're acting like you've been poisoned. Who offended you?"
Xu Wei is the only son in the Xu family. Countless people are eager to curry favor with him, so who would dare to offend him?
Xu Wei was terrified when he thought about how he had been humiliated in front of that man, who had only given him a defiant look.
He was naturally too embarrassed to talk about something so shameful.
The thought of Lu Huan nestled shyly behind that man only intensified the growing resentment in her heart.
Xu Wei rolled his eyes at the other person, annoyed and irritated: "Get out of here."
Feeling frustrated, Lu Huan drank a glass of wine. What was Lu Huan's relationship with that man?
The thought of Lu Huan clinging dependently to that man made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
A group of people gathered together, and someone brought up Lu Huan's name first, followed by the mention of the birthday banquet that the Lu family was holding for Lu Huan.
Everyone present knew about Lu Huan's mad pursuit of Chu Jun, and they asked Chu Jun with smiles if he was going and what gift he planned to give.
The Lu family only has this one precious daughter, and since Lu Huan is in love with Chu Jun, Lu Zhong is quite happy that the two families can form a marriage alliance.
Whether Lu Huan is willing or not is her business; Chu Jun doesn't want others to control his life.
Besides, he already disliked Lu Huan, so it was even more impossible for him to marry her.
But last time… Chu Jun frowned and didn’t pick up on the topic.
The other person, however, was clearly drunk and shouted, "Is that even a question? If Brother Chu goes, that woman Lu Huan will definitely keep bothering him, and he won't be able to get rid of her even if he wants to."
When Lu Huan was mentioned, Xu Wei observed Chu Jun's expression.
He showed neither joy nor anger, and it was impossible to fathom his current attitude towards Lu Huan.
Midway through, Chu Jun went to answer a phone call, and Xu Wei thought for a moment and followed him out.
Chu Jun hung up the phone and turned around to see Xu Wei standing behind him. "What's wrong?"
His expression had been off ever since he returned.
Xu Wei took a drag of his cigarette and exhaled the smoke. "I just saw Lu Huan."
Chu Jun looked at him in surprise: "Lu Huan?"
No wonder his expression had been strange ever since he came back. Chu Jun laughed and said, "You two are fighting again?"
Xu Wei and Lu Huan did not get along well; they always ended up arguing whenever they met.
Unable to argue with Xu Wei, Lu Huan went to Chu Jun to complain.
Xu Wei wanted to pinch him, but then he remembered the man's gloomy eyes and denied it in a high-pitched voice: "No, am I that kind of person!"
"She doesn't recognize me at all now." Xu Wei scoffed coldly, a barely perceptible hint of disappointment in his voice. "She really has amnesia?"
Lu Huan has known Chu Jun for just as many years as Xu Wei has known Lu Huan.
Having witnessed firsthand the foolish things Lu Huan had done in pursuit of Chu Jun over the years, she never imagined that she would completely forget them overnight.
"I don't know." Chu Jun's expression didn't look good when he mentioned this.
Before, at the Heaven on Earth, she seemed not to recognize him at all. Her eyes were full of unfamiliarity when she looked at him, let alone the infatuation she once had.
He scoffed coldly and said ruthlessly, "It's best if she loses her memory, so she won't bother me anymore."
Chu Jun treated Lu Huan the same way, and Xu Wei didn't care.
If his attitude towards Lu Huan suddenly changes, then I should really be worried.
Xu Wei thought of that man, "Lu Huan was having dinner with a gigolo, could she be keeping a gigolo on her own?"
Gu Zhendong was 1.88 meters tall and slender. His pale skin naturally made him the pretty boy Xu Wei described.
Xu Wei, having spent some time in high society, knew that Gu Zhendong's clothes were expensive, all haute couture.
If this man were in S City, how could he not recognize him?
The Lu family is rich; the clothes that pretty boy is wearing were probably bought with Lu Huan's money.
Xu Wei spoke of him with a hint of disdain, calling him a gigolo who lived off women.
Xu Wei never expected that this person would be Gu Zhendong.
Chu Jun was stunned for a moment: "What pretty boy?"
"I don't know, I guess he came from some club and saw that Lu Huan was rich, so he took some money from her to spend."
Lu Huan is notoriously stupid, so it's not surprising that she was fooled by a man who is only slightly good-looking.
Is Lu Huan keeping a gigolo?
A few days ago, Chu Han blurted out that Lu Huan had fallen in love with another man at first sight.
Could the man she fell in love with at first sight be the pretty boy Xu Wei was talking about?
Chu Jun felt extremely uncomfortable, as if something that belonged to him had been taken away.
This is the inherent weakness of men.
When they were pursuing you, you ignored them and even made sarcastic remarks. But once they turned away and got another man, you suddenly regretted it and wanted them back.
The relationship between the Lu and Chu families has always been good. Even as Lu Huan's older brother, he couldn't let Lu Huan go astray.
Chu Jun's expression was serious. "Which private room are they in?"
Xu Wei was taken aback. "What?"
Wasn't he uninterested in Lu Huan's affairs?
Which private room are they in?
Chu Jun asked again.
After Xu Wei told Chu Jun the room number, Chu Jun turned and walked in that direction.
Xu Wei, who was following behind, suddenly didn't understand Chu Jun's idea. Was he going to interfere in Lu Huan's affairs?
"Didn't you dislike Lu Huan? Why are you meddling in her affairs now?"
“I do not like him, but as her brother, I cannot watch her go astray.”
"..."
Inside the private room.
Under the bright lights, a man and a woman sat facing each other.
Normally, Lu Huan doesn't talk much, especially now that her mouth is full of food.
Her cheeks were rosy from eating, her cheeks were slightly puffed out, and she was munching away.
Gu Zhendong has suffered from chronic headaches and has never had a good appetite.
At this moment, he looked at Lu Huan's satisfied expression as he ate, as if he were enjoying a Manchu Han Imperial Feast.
My appetite suddenly improved, and I ate a little more than usual.
Lu Huan took a bite of the braised pork. The braised pork here was fatty but not greasy, and it tasted a hundred times better than the one in the school cafeteria.
Waaah, every dish here is so delicious! I'm so glad she came with Gu Zhendong.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Huan thought the waiter had brought out more food and looked at Gu Zhendong in surprise, asking, "What else did you order? We can't possibly finish all of this!"
Lu Huan likes being rich, but she dislikes extravagance.
It's simply because she's worried about the money.
This table of dishes is full of color, aroma and taste, and a single meal would cost two or three thousand.
If Lu Huan were to come for dinner, she definitely wouldn't be willing to let her.
Gu Zhendong frowned. All the dishes had already been served, but he didn't add any more.
The knocking sounded again, and before Lu Huan could answer, the person outside pushed the door open and entered.
The people who came in were not waiters, but Chu Jun and Xu Wei, whom they had just met.
Lu Huan, with a piece of braised pork still stuffed in his mouth, stared at the two people at the door with a surprised expression, making a muffled sound: "What's wrong with you...?"
The implication is, what are you doing here?
Chu Jun arrived aggressively, his face grim. He had been prepared to come in and reprimand Lu Huan for keeping a lover.
But to everyone's surprise, when their angry gaze met Gu Zhendong's gloomy face, they were instantly horrified, their eyes widening like copper bells.
They said he was supposed to be a pretty boy, how could it be Gu Zhendong?
Of the four people in the room, only Xu Wei was completely unaware of the strange atmosphere.
He was furious, pointing angrily at Gu Zhendong and saying, "He's Lu Huan's kept man."
This pretty boy is quite handsome, but he's too gloomy and clearly a scheming person.
Lu Huan is both stupid and clumsy; how could she possibly control a pretty boy? She'd definitely be completely fooled by him.
Gu Zhendong... is he a gigolo?
