Gu Yao looked at Wang Jinyu standing to the side, walked over to Wang Jinyu's side, gently tugged at Wang Jinyu's sleeve, and frowned slightly.
Is she possessed?
"No, I don't know what happened."
Wang Jinyu looked at Wen Lu with deep eyes, then turned around and walked towards the study.
Hearing the study door close, Wen Lu looked up and saw Gu Yao and Qian Lailai. She called the two over to help. Gu Yao washed her hands by the sink and then walked to Wen Lu's side to start preparing the dishes with her.
While preparing the dishes, Gu Yao kept looking at Wen Lu. She squinted at Wen Lu for a long time before speaking in confusion.
"Something just doesn't seem right about you."
"Really? Is it that obvious? It seems I'm really not suited to be a good girlfriend. It's too much work. Mi, you can do it yourself. I'm going to the bathroom first."
As Wen Lu spoke, she put down what she was holding, grabbed a kitchen paper towel, wiped her hands, and walked towards the bathroom.
Entering the bathroom, Wen Lu lowered the toilet seat and sat on the toilet, hugging her knees with both hands. If she had a way out, she wouldn't want to take this path.
After sitting in the bathroom for about three minutes, Wen Lu came out and saw Wang Jinyu standing at the bathroom door with a gloomy expression. Without saying a word, Wang Jinyu grabbed Wen Lu's hand and led her into the bedroom.
The moment the bedroom door closed, Wang Jinyu hugged Wen Lu tightly, remaining silent and unable to utter a single word.
Wen Lu quietly let Wang Jinyu hold her, and after an unknown amount of time, Wen Lu spoke in a gentle voice.
"I just wanted to try what it would be like to cook for my man, but it seems like it would be too hard, and I don't think I could do it."
Wen Lu looked up at Wang Jinyu, her bright black eyes filled with sincerity. Wang Jinyu looked into her eyes and smiled gently.
"No need, I can support you. You don't need to do these things yourself. You can just do what you like."
Wang Jinyu's voice was somewhat hoarse. Wen Lu's actions had really frightened him. He had a strange feeling, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Seeing Wang Jinyu's furrowed brows, Wen Lu pulled him to sit down on the sofa, then took out a small, exquisite black box from her backpack. Wang Jinyu recognized the brand of the box immediately; it was a jewelry collection from the D brand.
"This is something I prepared for you. It's a ring for three lifetimes, one for each of us."
Without waiting for Wang Jinyu's consent, Wen Lu took the ring out of the jewelry box and put it on Wang Jinyu's finger. Wang Jinyu looked at the ring on his finger and had a strange sense of familiarity.
"I feel like I've seen this somewhere before."
"Of course you've seen it. I designed it myself, and I designed it for you."
As she spoke, Wen Lu proudly stuffed the women's ring into Wang Jinyu's palm, then reached out to Wang Jinyu, asking him to put the ring on her finger.
Wang Jinyu looked at the ring in his hand, then at the ring on his own finger. He held Wen Lu's fair and jade-like finger, slipped the ring onto her finger, and then clasped their fingers together.
"Put on your ring, and I'm yours. If you ever abandon me, I'll hate you for the rest of my life!"
Wen Lu was slightly taken aback when she heard Wang Jinyu's words, but she quickly covered it up with a smile and then threw herself into Wang Jinyu's arms.
"Of course! You're mine, how could I bear to abandon you?"
On the side that Wang Jinyu couldn't see, Wen Lu gently bit her thin lips, thinking, "Through three lifetimes, I hope that in the third life, I can find you again..."
After Wen Lu and Wang Jinyu stayed in their bedroom for a while, Gu Yao gently knocked on the door from the outside to let them know that lunch was ready and that Yan Luo and Yan Huan had both arrived.
Wen Lu released Wang Jinyu, stood up from his embrace, and pulled him out of the room. She gave Yan Luo and Yan Huan a lighthearted smile.
Yan Luo and Yan Huan were slightly taken aback when they saw the smile on Wen Lu's face. They had known Wen Lu for so long, but this was the first time they had seen her so radiant.
"Is something good happening today? You're smiling so happily."
Yan Luo looked at Wen Lu's expression and asked in confusion. It was no wonder that people would think that way. He really felt that Wen Lu was quite unfamiliar with him.
Wen Lu looked at the gazes directed at her, lowered her head and chuckled, "You people are really interesting. I just want to be optimistic and live a good life, but you all seem so surprised. How boring."
"Alright, stop scrutinizing me. I'm perfectly normal. Come on, sit down and let's eat together."
As Wen Lu spoke, she pulled Wang Jinyu to sit down at the dining table. The meal was the same as usual, with Wang Jinyu taking meticulous care of Wen Lu, who naturally enjoyed his care.
After lunch, Wen Lu didn't help clear the table. Instead, she glanced at the time and pulled Wang Jinyu out the door together.
Wen Lu sat in the passenger seat of Wang Jinyu's car. Wang Jinyu turned his head to look at Wen Lu and asked in a gentle voice.
"Where do you want to go if you're going out unexpectedly?"
“It’s not a last-minute trip, it’s all planned. We’re going to F Continent and then to S City. It’ll probably be quite a while before we come back. I’ll take you to see Grandma Xiao. I promised her last time that I would bring my boyfriend to see her. Let’s go to the mall and buy some gifts first.”
Seeing Wen Lu's excited expression, Wang Jinyu didn't say anything more. He would accompany Wen Lu no matter what she wanted to do today. Since she was willing to act with him, he would grant her wish. He also wanted to see what she was up to.
After Wen Lu and Wang Jinyu left, the few people left in the room fell silent. Gu Yao sat down next to Qian Lailai.
"Based on your understanding of your junior uncle, do you know what's wrong with her today? I don't believe a single word she said today."
When Qian Lailai heard Gu Yao's words, she turned to look at Gu Yao and shook her head. She wasn't a mind reader for Wen Lu. How could she know things that they didn't know? She also felt very uneasy about Wen Lu's condition.
Yan Luo and Yan Hao exchanged a glance, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke with some uncertainty in their voices.
"Is it because my parents found Wen Lu this morning and blamed him? They don't understand what Third Uncle did, so..."
"No, that little thing has no effect on Wen Lu's emotions at all. Wen Lu has never lied about her background. She really doesn't care whether she can be recognized by your Yan family. If there is anyone she cares about, it's probably Yan Nuo. After all, Yan Nuo is her twin brother. No one else can make her feel a sense of belonging."
