Chapter 137 (1)



If Gu Zhendong hadn't coughed beside her to remind her, Lu Huan wouldn't have been willing to let go.

She finally got to hug him once, and she wanted to hug him for a little longer.

Shen Hui not only looks exactly like her mother, but even smells the same—fresh and pleasant. Memories of the past resurfaced, and Lu Huan almost burst into tears again while holding Shen Hui.

Lu Huang's eyes were wet as she looked at the two people in front of her, as if it were all a dream.

But right now, none of this is a dream. Everything is real. Shen Hui is real, and Ming Ze is real too. They just don't recognize him!

"Second Aunt, can I add you on WeChat?" Lu Huan asked shamelessly.

She didn't want to miss any opportunity.

Shen Hui had no reason to refuse Lu Huan's request, nor could she bear to refuse such a lovely child.

After adding each other as WeChat friends, Lu Huan immediately sent Shen Hui a cute and adorable emoji, "Second Aunt, I'll chat with you often from now on!"

Shen Hui was taken aback, sensing that the young girl's feelings for her seemed somewhat different. She smiled and said okay.

As night deepened, Lu Huan was still somewhat reluctant to leave. She turned back several times to wave goodbye to Shen Hui and her husband before finally getting into the car.

Lu Huan was exceptionally warm and affectionate towards Shen Hui and her husband; not only Gu Zhendong, but even bystanders could see it.

After the family left, Ming Zijun said to Shen Hui, "Lu Huan seems to like you quite a bit!"

Recalling Lu Huan's reaction, Shen Hui smiled gently, "Yes, I was quite surprised too!"

This is the first time I've ever seen a little girl cry because she likes her so much; it's quite a unique feeling.

Shen Hui has a very gentle appearance. It is not surprising that many children liked her and surrounded her when she did charity work in the past.

But at night, Shen Hui found it difficult to fall asleep.

As soon as I close my eyes, I see the little girl's face, red from crying, looking at me pitifully.

Unable to fall asleep, Mingze couldn't sleep either.

He turned on the light and looked at his wife. "What's wrong? Can't sleep again?"

Shen Hui turned over to look at Mingze, frowning as she said, "I don't know either. I just keep thinking about that child whenever I close my eyes!"

Mingze was stunned for a moment before realizing who she was talking about.

"That child probably likes you, there's nothing wrong with that!"

There was nothing wrong, but she just couldn't sleep. "Something just feels off!"

She had seen children cry before when she did charity work, but the way Lu Huan cried always made her feel terrible.

"It is a bit strange!" Mingze thought of the scene when he met Lu Huan this morning and couldn't help but laugh out loud. "When this child saw me this morning, he just stared at me blankly. At the time, I thought that this child was a little mentally unstable!"

"Yeah?"

Shen Hui thought Lu Huan was only staring at her, but she didn't expect Ming Ze to be there too.

"I quite like this kid, but he's a bit absent-minded!"

Mingze and Shen Hui couldn't sleep late at night and were discussing Lu Huan's situation. Meanwhile, Lu Huan was also unable to sleep.

Gu Zhendong did not question her about what happened in the afternoon, but wanted to wait for Lu Huan to tell him on her own initiative.

But no matter how long they waited, Lu Huan never said anything.

When Gu Zhendong came out of the shower, he saw Lu Huan sitting cross-legged on the bed, staring at the bag placed in front of her.

If he remembered correctly, this bag was a gift from Shen Hui.

Gu Zhendong walked over and asked, "It's so late, aren't you asleep yet?"

Lu Huan stared at the bag and answered without thinking, "I'm going to sleep right away!"

"..."

Judging from her posture, she seems determined to stare at the bag all night without sleeping; she's clearly just trying to appease herself.

Gu Zhendong tried to take the bag, but as soon as he touched it, Lu Huan rushed over to protect her bag, shouting, "What are you doing!"

His expression was fierce, as if Gu Zhendong had taken away not just a bag, but something priceless.

"Time to sleep!"

Lu Huan held the bag tightly, saying, "No, let me spend more time with it!"

"..."

He usually buys her designer bags, and she's never this happy or protective of them. Yet she treats gifts from others like treasures.

Seeing her cautious demeanor, Gu Zhendong stroked the bag in her arms and couldn't help but complain, "You might as well just sleep with it all night!"

Lu Huan's eyes lit up. "That's a great idea!"

This was the first gift Shen Hui had ever given her, and she was reluctant to let go of it. Holding it and sleeping with it for one night seemed like a good idea.

In this way, she sleeps while holding the bag, just as if she were sleeping while holding her mother.

Lu Huan happily accepted Gu Zhendong's suggestion, grabbed her bag, quickly crawled into bed, and closed her eyes happily, "I'm going to sleep!"

She'll definitely dream about her parents tonight!

Gu Zhendong: ...

He was just making a casual comment, but unexpectedly Lu Huan actually did it!

It was bad enough that his bed had been taken over by a cat, but now it's been taken over by a bag.

Gu Zhendong's face darkened. "Put the bag aside!"

"No!" Lu Huan opened her eyes, looking at him stubbornly. "I'm going to sleep with it tonight, you can't separate us!"

Gu Zhendong got into bed and saw that Lu Huan had her back to him and was clutching her bag tightly. The more he thought about it, the darker his face became.

It's just a bag, why make her sleep with it?

Gu Zhendong cared deeply about whether the bag itself was more important or the person who gave it to him.

When Lu Huan fell asleep in the middle of the night, it was too cold to hold a bag, so she subconsciously turned over to find a source of warmth.

Gu Zhendong opened his eyes and saw her snuggling into his arms for warmth. He sighed helplessly and pulled her into his embrace.

Incidentally, I tossed the bag aside.

She was the one who let go of her bag first and turned around to hug herself; it had nothing to do with him.

When Lu Huan woke up, Gu Zhendong was already up.

She groggily reached for her bag, but after a while she couldn't find it, and then she instantly snapped back to reality.

Could it be that everything that happened yesterday was just a dream?

She sat up abruptly in bed and looked around the room. Where was her bag?

I was sleeping with my bag last night, so where did such a big bag go?

Lu Huan searched the entire bed but couldn't find her precious bag. She plopped down, hugged the blanket, and felt sadly about to cry.

When Gu Zhendong came in, he saw Lu Huan huddled under the covers, looking aggrieved. "What's wrong?"

Lu Huan raised her head, her eyes red from crying, and looked at him silently.

Everything yesterday felt so real; she was even hugged by Shen Hui. But it turns out I was just dreaming.

Gu Zhendong walked over and hugged her. "Sweetie, don't cry. Why are you crying so early in the morning? Your eyes will get ugly if you keep crying!"

"I'm already feeling so bad, and you still think I'm ugly!" Lu Huan cried even harder.

When Lu Huan woke up in the morning, he was very emotional, and tears smeared all over his chest.

Gu Zhendong comforted her, waiting for her emotions to calm down a bit and she to stop crying so hard. Then he asked, "What happened? Tell me."

Lu Huan naturally couldn't talk about those things, so she wiped away her tears and said, "I dreamed about a bag last night, and I really liked it, but when I woke up, my bag was gone!"

Although everything in her dream was fake, it was still a gift from her mother.

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhendong understood the reason for her emotional fluctuations.

It's just a bag, look how much she's crying!

"Is it a limited edition from LV?"

Lu Huan stopped crying instantly, looked up at him with a surprised expression, and asked, "How did you know?"

How did Gu Zhendong know it was the bag from her dream?

Gu Zhendong seriously doubted that she was still confused. "Did you look at the ground?"

"Um?"

Following the direction Gu Zhendong was looking, Lu Huan suspiciously leaned over the bedside and looked down at the floor, where she saw the bag that Shen Hui had given her lying on the floor.

Lu Huan quickly scooped it up and hugged it to her arms, "How did my bag fall to the ground?"

The bag is real, so does that mean the Shen Hui she saw yesterday was also real?

"I was holding it while I slept last night, how could it have fallen to the ground!" She was so scared that she thought she was dreaming, and she cried for a long time in the morning.

Lu Huan looked at Gu Zhendong with a suspicious gaze, practically asking if he was the one who did it.

"You'd have to ask that!"

What's wrong with me?

"Your sleeping posture is terrible. You kicked your bag to the ground yourself, and you want to blame me?"

"..."

This seems like something she's capable of doing.

She liked to kick off the covers at night, and then she would feel cold and snuggle into Gu Zhendong's arms. As for the cold, lifeless bag, she would just kick it to the ground.

Are you still crying now?

Lu Huan: ... Right now, all she wants to do is dig a hole and bury herself.

She cried like this just for a bag; she's completely lost face!

"Alright, get up and have breakfast!"

Lu Huan buried her face in the blankets and mumbled, "I'm too ashamed to go out and face anyone!"

Her eyes were so red and swollen that everyone could tell she had been crying again!

Gu Zhendong comforted her, "It's okay. Everyone has seen you cry before. You cried in front of others yesterday, so why are you afraid of your own family seeing you now?"

She lost control yesterday and was seen by so many people, so what is she afraid of now?

Gu Zhendong hadn't mentioned it, and Lu Huan had almost forgotten about that embarrassing incident. But then he deliberately brought it up again, and Lu Huan angrily raised her head, "Are you trying to comfort me, or do you want to see me make a fool of myself?!"

Gu Zhendong pinched her cheek. "Of course I'm calling you to get up and eat!"

Lu Huan snorted and burrowed back into bed, not wanting to see him. "I don't want to eat anymore!"

She doesn't need to look in the mirror to know that she must look ugly right now.

If she goes back down and everyone sees her, they'll definitely worry about her again, and she doesn't want them to worry.

Not eating is bad for your stomach.

Gu Zhendong asked, "Shall I bring it up for you?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Huan suddenly popped her head out from under the covers, her hair disheveled and hanging over her face, her eyes red and watery. "That works too!"

Gu Zhendong was very busy. He only rested at home for a few days before going to the company on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

I also need to go on a business trip, to a place that's not far away, in a coastal city.

Lu Huan had plenty of time before school started and had nothing to do, so she went out with her to relax.

The man was very busy, working outside during the day and socializing at night. Most of the time, Lu Huan stayed alone in the hotel room, sleeping and playing games.

After three busy days with a tight schedule, Gu Zhendong finally canceled all his other commitments and went out with Lu Huan.

The city to the south was very hot, with daytime temperatures approaching 30 degrees Celsius. This was the first time Lu Huan had ever felt hot wearing short sleeves in the dead of winter.

The two played all day and only returned home after having dinner outside.

After walking around all day, Lu Huan's feet were about to give out. When she got back, she collapsed on the sofa, too exhausted to move.

Gu Zhendong turned on the hot water, picked her up, and carried her to the bathroom.

He pressed one hand on her button, "Do you want to take it off yourself, or should I help you?"

Lu Huan blushed and pressed his hand down, "I can do it myself!"

If he were to undress her, something indescribable would definitely happen, and she would be even more exhausted.

Cherish life, stay away from Gu Zhendong.

Lu Huan pushed the man away, "You go out first, I can do it myself!"

Gu Zhendong raised an eyebrow, glancing at her slender figure out of the corner of his eye. "Are you sure you can do it?"

He's here, I can't be here!

I took a nice, relaxing hot bath and almost fell asleep.

After taking a bath to relieve her fatigue, Lu Huan felt even more tired. As soon as her hair was dried, she fell asleep on her pillow.

She was sleeping in a sprawling position, with the blanket on the floor. Gu Zhendong smiled helplessly and covered her with the blanket.

Gu Zhendong was very busy, and when he woke up the next morning, no one was by his side again.

Lu Huan yawned lazily, glanced at her phone, and decided to go shopping today.

The business here is almost finished, and I expect to be able to go back in the next day or two. Lu Huan bought a lot of things and carried them back to the hotel in large and small bags.

Gu Zhendong returned home early today, and upon arriving, he found the room filled with all sorts of things, big and small.

Lu Huan was sitting among these things, tidying them up.

He casually picked up a bag containing tea leaves. "Did you buy this?"

Lu Huan nodded, "Yes, I bought it for Grandpa Ming!"

She thought for a moment, and realized that if she wanted to give gifts to Shen Huimingze, she couldn't just give them to the couple, otherwise it would seem like she was being biased.

To appear fair and impartial, she specially prepared gifts for all the elders of the Ming family.

She's been chatting with Shen Hui quite a bit these past two days, ostensibly to find out everyone's preferences, but really just to have more conversations with her.

If she weren't afraid of embarrassing herself in front of Shen Hui again, she would want to appear in front of Shen Hui every day.

"What about this one?"

Gu Zhendong picked up another bag containing a simple dress. Judging from the figure, it didn't seem to be hers, nor did it seem like his mother could fit into it.

"That was for Aunt Ming. I wore her dress last time, so I can't just leave it unreturned!"

Gu Zhendong then asked a few more questions, and Lu Huan answered them one by one. She had bought gifts for everyone, from Grandpa Ming to Fu Hanshen, who didn't have the surname Ming. She was really meticulous and didn't miss a single one.

It wasn't hard to guess Lu Huan's little scheme. She bought so many gifts at once to cover up the fact that she mainly wanted to give them to Shen Hui and her husband.

Gu Zhendong didn't expose her and helped her pack up.

She bought gifts not only for the Ming family but also for her own family members. She bought gifts for so many people but not for herself.

Gu Zhendong looked at her, "What about mine?"

Lu Huan was engrossed in packing her things when she heard the man's question. Without looking up, she asked, "Yours what?"

"Gift!"

"No!" Lu Huan replied casually.

Gu Zhendong was displeased. "Everyone else has it, but I'm the only one who doesn't?"

"That's because I came with you. Why would I buy you a gift? That would be a waste of money!" Lu Huan replied matter-of-factly, but when her eyes met Gu Zhendong's gloomy gaze, she chuckled, "Honey, actually..."

"Come here, let's have a proper talk!"

Gu Zhendong waved, gesturing for Lu Huan to sit down.

Lu Huan wasn't stupid; if he really went there, he would definitely suffer the consequences.

To avoid upsetting the man, Lu Huan rolled her eyes and, quick-witted, said, "Wow, of course I also prepared a gift for you, but I can only give it to you after we get home!"

After saying that, she immediately wanted to escape from this place.

Gu Zhendong grabbed her elbow, and Lu Huan, caught off guard, fell into the man's arms.

His long arms held her captive in his embrace, his scent filling her senses. Lu Huan struggled slightly, "Gu Zhendong!"

"Call me husband!"

Lu Huan looked up and met his dark eyes, noticing the lust in them. A panic gripped her. "Husband, let me go!"

A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. Gu Zhendong was clearly in heat, and she shouldn't mess with him.

They hadn't made love since they'd been out together, and Gu Zhendong was starting to miss her body.

A hand slipped inside her clothes, and the man's desire was clearly written on his face: he wanted her.

Lu Huan's heart pounded even harder. She pressed down on his hand, her face flushed, "Don't... I still need to pack my things!"

If we let him do as he pleases, we'll never be able to finish cleaning up all this stuff.

Gu Zhendong kissed her. "It's okay, we can clean up tomorrow!"

"But... um..."

Gu Zhendong didn't want to listen, but what he wanted to do was act.

Afterwards, Lu Huan was so tired that she didn't want to move or pack her luggage. She fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

Let's pack these things up tomorrow!

Lu Huan got up early the next morning to pack her things because she had to catch a flight the following afternoon.

She yawned, tears welling up in her eyes from sleepiness, and glared at Gu Zhendong: "It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, I would have finished cleaning up last night!"

I had to drag her along and she was doing all sorts of silly things. Now her back and waist are aching!

Gu Zhendong sat down next to her, rubbed her lower back, and whispered in her ear, "If you come here, wouldn't it be a pity if you didn't leave some beautiful memories?"

Lu Huan really wanted to slam the bag in her hand onto his forehead. Who wants such a wonderful memory!

I bought too many things, so many suitcases were full and couldn't hold them all.

Lu Huan looked at him pleadingly, "What should we do?"

You can't just leave something you've worked so hard to buy behind.

Gu Zhendong tapped her on the head, "Silly girl, you can send it back by express delivery!"

Lu Huan: ...Yeah, how come she didn't think of that!

After packing my luggage, I finally boarded the plane in the afternoon.

The plane was too noisy, so Lu Huan didn't sleep well. She was half-asleep and felt even more uncomfortable.

When she got home, Lu Huan didn't even eat dinner and went straight to bed.

I slept until nine o'clock at night, when my stomach started growling loudly, and that's when I woke up.

Lu Huan glanced at her phone. Three hours ago, Shen Hui had sent her a message asking if she had arrived home yet.

I was so sleepy at the time that I couldn't keep my eyes open and didn't even check my phone, which is why I missed Shen Hui's message.

Lu Huan bit her lip, feeling very anxious. She hadn't replied to the message for so long; would the other person be angry?

Never mind, if she's really angry, I'll just apologize to her in person.

Lu Huan immediately replied to the message, "I'm sorry, Second Aunt, I fell asleep after I got back and didn't check my phone. You're not angry, are you?"

I don't know if Shen Hui was busy or what, but she hasn't replied to my messages for a long time.

Lu Huan was extremely anxious. She held onto her phone until it was hot from touching it, but refused to let go, her eyes fixed on the screen.

Gu Zhendong finished his work in the study and was about to come in to see if Lu Huan was awake and to call her to get something to eat.

As soon as I came in, I saw her lying on the bed playing on her phone.

"woke up?"

Gu Zhendong arrived just in time. Shen Hui hadn't replied to her messages, making her suspect her phone was malfunctioning. She quickly asked Gu Zhendong for her phone, and he handed it to her, asking, "What do you want to do?"

“Send a message to my phone and see if it notifies me!” Lu Huan replied.

If my phone wasn't broken, why hasn't Shen Hui replied to my messages for so long? Could she really be angry?

In Gu Zhendong's phone, Lu Huan's name was the only one pinned to the top, and his WeChat account was the first thing he saw when he opened it.

I quickly clicked on it and sent a question mark.

She had just sent the message when her phone rang.

He hurriedly picked it up and thought it was a message from Shen Hui, but when he opened it, he found it was a question mark message he had sent using Gu Zhendong's phone.

Gu Zhendong glanced at his phone screen and saw Shen Hui's name. "What's wrong?"

Ever since Lu Huan met Shen Hui, he has seen Lu Huan chatting with her every few days, and it seems that he really likes her.

Back when they were dating, Lu Huan had never been this clingy.

No one gets close to another without a reason; there's always a cause.

Gu Zhendong felt that there was something going on, and he needed to have Kong Xun investigate.

"Your second aunt might be busy and hasn't noticed your message yet, that's normal!"

"Really?" Lu Huan looked at him with some doubt, but Gu Zhendong reassured her, "She's probably asleep by now!"

Lu Huan sighed softly, stared at her phone for a long time, and then put it down to go downstairs with the man to eat.

Even after dinner, Shen Hui still didn't reply to her message.

Lu Huan watched the drama listlessly, unable to concentrate, and had no idea what was going on in the show.

Not only that, Lu Huan couldn't sleep well at night, tossing and turning in bed.

Gu Zhendong, unable to bear it any longer, turned over to look at her, "Don't you want to sleep?"

The faint light from the phone screen shone on her face, and Lu Huan sighed, "I slept too much last night, so I can't sleep now!"

Gu Zhendong grabbed her wrist, flipped her over, pinned her beneath him, and squeezed between her legs. "Then let's do something to help you fall asleep!"

"..."

She felt she could finally sleep!

Unfortunately, someone didn't give her a chance to speak at all.

When your physical strength is exhausted, you naturally don't have the energy to overthink things.

Lu Huan fell into a deep sleep, only to be woken up early the next morning by a phone call.

I called out to Gu Zhendong, but he was no longer there. I don't even know what time it is.

I groggily found my phone, glanced at the caller ID, and instantly became more alert.

Yu sat up abruptly in bed, cleared her throat, and then answered the phone, "Second Aunt, you were looking for me!"

Lu Huan never expected to receive a call from Shen Hui so early in the morning; it was like happiness falling from the sky.

Before Shen Hui could speak, Lu Huan heard the person on the other end cough a few times. She immediately became worried and asked, "Second Aunt, do you have a cold?"

"A little, but I'm much better now!" Shen Hui said with a smile. "I took my medicine last night and went to bed early, so I didn't see your message. Don't worry, I'm not angry!"

She has always had poor sleep quality and usually keeps her phone on silent when she sleeps. In addition, she has been exposed to cold wind for the past two days and has been running a fever. Last night, she took some fever reducer and fell asleep in a daze, completely unaware of the situation.

She woke up early in the morning to find the pitiful emoji the little girl had sent her. Shen Hui thought that the little girl must have cried again last night. Just thinking about her crying made her heart skip a beat and she felt bad too.

Sure enough, she called immediately after seeing the message.

"Did I disturb your sleep?" Shen Hui glanced at the time; it wasn't even seven o'clock yet. Kids these days all like to sleep in.

Lu Huan shook her head violently, lying without thinking, "Of course not, I got up a long time ago!" Hearing that she was sick, she was extremely anxious, "By the way, Second Aunt, are you seriously ill? Should I come over to see you? I happen to have nothing to do today, and I even bought gifts for you and Second Uncle..."

"No need, it's just a minor cold, you don't need to come over!"

"But Second Aunt, I want to see you!" Lu Huan hadn't seen her for several days and missed her terribly. Her voice suddenly became aggrieved.

Shen Hui faintly sensed the tearful tone in her voice and quickly changed her words, saying, "Then come on over. I'm all alone at home, and I'm bored anyway!"

Lu Huan was overjoyed that she could finally see Shen Hui. "Okay, send me the address and I'll be right there!"

After hanging up the phone, Lu Huan cheered, jumped out of bed, and rushed straight to the bathroom, thinking she should quickly wash up and go out to see Shen Hui.

But she forgot that Gu Zhendong was still in the bathroom. As soon as she rushed in, she saw a handsome man emerging from the bath.

Gu Zhendong had just turned off the shower and hadn't even wrapped himself in a towel when Lu Huan suddenly barged in and saw him naked.

Lu Huan exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly covering her eyes, "Why aren't you wearing any clothes?!"

Gu Zhendong gave a helpless twitch of his lips. Had he somehow gotten involved?

She clearly barged in without even knocking.

Compared to Lu Huan's shyness, Gu Zhendong was much more open, casually strutting around in front of Lu Huan, "What are you covering up for? Didn't we already touch each other last night?"

We've already touched her, I really don't know why she's still so easily embarrassed.

Lu Huan's words make a lot of sense; touching with your hands and seeing with your eyes are two different kinds of stimulation.

She spread her fingers and peeked at the man through them. Seeing that he was still completely naked, Lu Huan stomped her foot in anger, "Hurry up and put your clothes on!"

She was really afraid of getting a nosebleed after being subjected to such a big shock so early in the morning.

Gu Zhendong helplessly leaned closer to her face, "You barged in without my permission, and now you expect me to put on clothes?"

Lu Huan was no longer shy. She grabbed a bath towel from the side and quickly wrapped it around his waist.

Both of them lowered their heads at the same time, looking down at Gu Zhendong's waist. The bath towel was in a mess and didn't completely cover him. If their gaze went down slightly, they could see the partially concealed cleavage. Lu Huan's face instantly turned frighteningly hot. "Hurry up and take it!"

She couldn't help but urge him on, her hand gripping the towel trembling slightly. The man moved closer to her, and Lu Huan nervously stepped back, looking up at him and stammering, "What are you doing?"

Gu Zhendong pinched her cheek and pinned her against the sink. "You came to me willingly, so what do you think I should do with you!"

She was already exhausted last night, and she couldn't handle being tossed and turned again this morning. Besides, she had to go out soon and couldn't afford to waste any more time.

Lu Huan pressed against his bath towel, her fingertips accidentally touching his abs. As if splashed with oil, she quickly withdrew her hand. As soon as she let go, Gu Zhendong's bath towel was about to fall down, and she had to quickly press it down again.

"Stop messing around! Didn't you have a meeting this morning? What time is it already!"

If he keeps taking that long, he won't be able to go to work this morning!

Gu Zhendong's schedule was packed today. Postponing this meeting would ruin his entire schedule for the rest of the day. He had to go to the company, but he didn't want to let people go so easily.

He still has a little time to play with the person in his arms!

Gu Zhendong pulled her into his arms and threatened her in a lewd manner, "If you kiss me to my satisfaction, I'll let you go!"

Lu Huan: ...

Gu Zhendong was really too wicked, but Lu Huan had no choice but to do as he said.

Because when the man threatened her, he used not only words but also actions.

She swallowed nervously, realizing that Gu Zhendong was completely naked, and she was terrified.

Lu Huan wrapped her arms around Gu Zhendong's neck and kissed him several times to avoid displeasing him, "Is that enough?"

He's already kissed me more than a dozen times, he should be satisfied by now!

Little did they know that Gu Zhendong, with his thick skin, was far from satisfied. "That's it?"

That's all? What else does he want? Does he think he can fly to the moon?

Lu Huan pushed him, "If we don't go now, you'll be late for work!"

Gu Zhendong hummed in agreement, but showed no intention of letting go of her hand. "Then we'll have to finish this quickly!"

Before Lu Huan could react, Gu Zhendong lowered his head and covered Lu Huan's soft lips with his.

Both of them were breathing heavily, with Lu Huan panting heavily, her face flushed, and a thin layer of sweat beading on her forehead.

Her tongue was a little numb, and Lu Huan pushed him away shyly, "You should go now!"

Before leaving, Gu Zhendong kissed her forehead again, "It's still early, you should sleep a little longer!"

Lu Huan readily agreed, and as soon as Gu Zhendong left, she couldn't wait to go out as well.

Shen Hui sent her the address early in the morning. Before going to her house, Lu Huan bought a bouquet of carnations and some fruit downstairs.

Standing nervously at the door, I took a deep breath before pressing the doorbell.

Shen Hui and Ming Ze did not live in the Ming family's old house; they bought a house elsewhere.

Lu Huan went to the house they bought. It wasn't very big, but it was decorated very warmly.

Shen Hui still had a cough, but her complexion was much better. She didn't look as seriously ill as Lu Huan had imagined, which made Lu Huan breathe a sigh of relief.

As Lu Huan entered the house, Mian said, "Sit on the sofa for a while!" Turning to go into the kitchen, she brought over a cup of hot water. "You silly child, you come all this way, why did you bring all this stuff?"

Lu Huan carefully took the cup. "Thank you, Second Aunt!" She scratched her head shyly. "I bought the flowers on my way here. I thought these carnations were very pretty, so I wanted to give them to you!"

Carnations are her mother's favorite flower.

Shen Hui took a vase and put the carnations in. The flowers were very fresh, still covered in dew. "You really went to all this trouble!"

"By the way, Auntie, are you feeling any better?"

"It's just a minor cold, nothing serious!" Shen Hui waved her hand dismissively. Besides the flowers and fruit, Lu Huan also brought over other things. "Are these also for me?"

"Yes!" Lu Huan couldn't sit still at all. Just then, Shen Hui mentioned what she had bought, and she stood up abruptly, eagerly introducing it to Shen Hui: "This is what I bought for you and your second uncle when I was out playing a couple of days ago. Do you like it?"

Lu Huan had bought a lot of things, and brought them all today, showing and introducing them to Shen Hui one by one.

Shen Hui was taken aback by Lu Huan's enthusiasm; how could this child have bought so many things all at once?

"By the way, isn't my second uncle home?" Lu Huan asked casually, since she had just bought something for Mingze.

Shen Hui said, "He went out today and probably won't be back until tonight!"

Mingze does resemble her father, so Lu Huan naturally wants to spend more time with him.

Hearing that he wouldn't be back until evening, she felt a little disappointed, but she quickly cheered up.

It's okay, as long as she can stay with her mother, she's already very content.

Lu Huan stayed here all day, and in the afternoon, Shen Hui took her medicine and became sleepy.

She looked at Lu Huan, intending to say something like it was getting late, but Lu Huan said righteously, "Second Aunt, don't worry about sleeping. I'll stay here with you! What if you suddenly develop a high fever again, and Second Uncle isn't here and can't go to the hospital by himself? I'm really worried about you being alone at home. It's okay, you go to sleep. I'll stay outside and won't disturb your sleep!"

Shen Hui was taken aback, not expecting the young girl to be so concerned about her health. She hesitated and asked, "Won't this be a lot of trouble for you?"

Lu Huan waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, I'm on vacation anyway, and I have nothing to do at home!"

It was clear that Lu Huan was kind-hearted, so Shen Hui didn't want to kick her out directly. She told her to make herself at home and treat the place as her own.

Lu Huan nodded vigorously, "Second Aunt, you should go to sleep now. Get plenty of sleep, and you'll recover faster!"

In the afternoon, Shen Hui slept in her room, while Lu Huan stayed in the living room, watching TV series and chatting with friends.

In the blink of an eye, it got dark outside.

Mingze was a little worried about his wife at home after being away all day, so he specially bought a bowl of three-ingredient porridge before returning home.

When she got home, she found a pair of black boots by the door, which didn't look like the shoes Shen Hui wore.

Mingze was stunned for a moment, then heard the sound of people playing games coming from the living room, which made him even more confused. Did they have guests over today?

Lu Huan was so bored watching TV alone that she was almost falling asleep on the sofa. She had to play some games to perk herself up.

She was engrossed in the game when she heard the door open. She hurriedly turned around and saw Mingze, who looked just like her father when he was young, had returned!

This was only the second time she had seen Mingze. Lu Huan was so surprised that her phone fell onto her lap, which she hurriedly picked up. "Second Uncle, you're back!"

What are you doing here?

"Ah, well..." Lu Huan chuckled awkwardly, pointed towards the bedroom, and hurriedly explained, "I heard that my second aunt wasn't feeling well, so I came to visit her and brought a gift with me!"

Lu Huan was very nervous, clutching the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands. She wanted to glance at Mingze, but she didn't dare to.

Mingze was quite at ease. Thinking that his wife had mentioned the child to him quite a bit recently, he smiled gently and invited her to sit down, "Sit down, don't be shy, make yourself at home!"

His words echoed Shen Hui's, and Lu Huan immediately nodded happily, "Yes!"

Lu Huan hadn't had much contact with Mingze, but she wanted to improve their relationship, so she said, "Second Uncle, this is a gift I bought for you. Do you like it?"

Lu Huan shamelessly stayed at their place for dinner as well.

Luckily, he bought two servings of three-ingredient congee, otherwise there really wouldn't be enough to go around.

"Thank you, Uncle and Aunt!"

Just as Lu Huan finished thanking them and was about to start eating, her phone rang.

Gu Zhendong went home as soon as he got off work and found that Lu Huan was not home, so he asked Yan Rong.

Yan Rong said she went out early this morning, and no one knows where she went; she hasn't come home all day.

When Gu Zhendong called, Lu Huan hesitated for several seconds, then smiled apologetically, "Let me take this call first!"

Then he went to the balcony and answered the phone, quietly saying hello.

Gu Zhendong entered the bedroom.
