Food taste knows the marrow.
Yun Suiwan repeatedly shattered Lu Dongjue's pride in his self-control.
Each time, he told himself that it was enough, that his body had recovered, and that he could let her go.
but--
His body, however, did not do that.
In the afternoon, Lu Dongjue took Yun Suiwan home.
When they arrived at the Yun family's door, Lu Dongjue handed Yun Suiwan a gold card.
Yun Suiwan was wrapped in his coat and looked somewhat haggard.
Her appearance has repeatedly overturned her image in Lu Dongjue's mind.
She was sharp-tongued, unreasonable, and arrogant, but now she's as docile as a rabbit by my side.
Seeing her frail appearance, Lu Dongjue felt a pang of heartache.
"What is this?" Yun Suiwan did not answer.
“There is one million here.”
"Why would I give you money? Has our relationship turned into a monetary transaction?" Yun Suiwan wasn't angry, but her words were particularly sarcastic.
Lu Dongjue, however, looked displeased and said in a deep voice, "Nonsense!"
As he spoke, he shoved the card into her hand. He didn't even look at her, and seemed a little reserved. He said coldly, "The money is for you. You can use it as you see fit."
He didn't know what she liked, and he had never given a woman a gift before, so he simply gave her money.
"Oh, I thought this was a payment you were making to get rid of me."
Lu Dongjue felt a lump in his throat. Look at what she said; she always had a way of embarrassing him.
What kind of person did she take him for?
Yun Suiwan knew when to stop. "Thanks," she said, and without further ado, she put the card away.
Lu Dongjue's expression softened somewhat.
"Would you like to come in for a visit?" Yun Suiwan asked politely.
"I can't sit here, I have things to do at the company."
"oh."
Yun Suiwan opened the car door and, as she got out, she took off his coat and placed it on the car seat.
After getting out of the car, she walked straight home without saying a word.
As Lu Dongjue watched her retreating figure, he felt a little uneasy.
He was always the center of attention, and no one dared to treat him like she did.
Is she using tricks to attract him again?
**
As Yun Suiwan entered the main house, she heard laughter and conversation coming from the living room.
When she came in, she saw seven or eight women sitting in the room, with her cousin Yun Manzhu sitting in the very center.
As soon as everyone saw Yun Suiwan, they immediately stopped laughing and joking.
Yun Manzhu, with her delicate fingers, held a green grape. When she saw Yun Suiwan, she glanced at her indifferently and said, "Oh, the great hero of the Yun family has returned."
Yun Manzhu is the daughter of Yun Suiwan's third uncle and Yun Suiwan's only cousin.
Yun Manzhu is arrogant and mean-spirited, inheriting the selfish and stingy nature of her biological mother.
Yun Wanqing watched Yun Suiwan secretly from the side, feeling a little smug.
Yun Suiwan and Yun Manzhu never got along when they were young because she was jealous of how much her grandmother doted on her.
Yun Suiwan didn't want to pay attention to her and could have just gone back to her room, but Yun Manzhu's words were full of veiled innuendo.
"Who am I talking about? Oh, it's my cousin. Don't you look down on our family the most? Why have you condescended to come to our house today?" Yun Suiwan's words were full of hostility.
Yun Manzhu looked at her with some surprise; she hadn't expected Yun Suiwan to actually dare to reply.
"She's definitely different now. She's about to become Mrs. Lu. She's really got guts."
“Cousin Manzhu, my sister’s words were a bit tactless, but we’re all family, so please don’t mind.” Yun Wanqing subtly teased Yun Suiwan from the side.
"How could I possibly mind? I heard that she beats her younger sister and curses her mother in this family; she has quite a temper," Yun Manzhu said sarcastically.
The others looked at Yun Suiwan, each with a slight smile on their face.
"Cousin, has Uncle not disciplined you lately?" Yun Suiwan asked with a smile.
The family discipline, commonly known as being beaten by the father.
"I heard that my cousin secretly took some money to invest last month, but she got scammed. Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Manzhu's face stiffened. She stared blankly at Yun Suiwan, wondering how she knew about this.
"And another thing," Yun Suiwan tapped her forehead, as if she couldn't remember, "What did my brother-in-law say about you keeping a younger man on the side? Did he divorce you or make my third uncle pay you money?"
"Yun Suiwan, shut up!" Yun Manzhu stood up angrily, glaring at Yun Suiwan. "Stop spouting nonsense. You haven't even finished dealing with your own mess, yet you have the mind to gossip about other people's business."
Yun Wanqing was secretly delighted. She had no idea that her cousin had so much gossip surrounding her. Now they were really fighting like dogs, and she was happy to watch the show.
"Cousin, I'm telling the truth, why are you angry? Or is it that other people don't know about these things?" Yun Suiwan put on a naive and pitiful look.
The others all wore gossipy expressions, unaware that Yun Manzhu's private life was so fascinating.
"Yun Suiwan, have you no shame? You willingly went to Lu Dongjue's door to sell yourself and beg him to marry you. You have truly disgraced the Yun family!"
"Cousin, Lu Dongjue and I went through all the proper matchmaking and betrothal procedures, and our parents agreed to our marriage. How come it sounds different in your mouth? Or do you think I'm like you, ignoring my family's objections and eloping to marry my brother-in-law by getting pregnant?"
Yun Manzhu's expression changed. In public, she was a high-ranking young lady of the Yun family and a senior executive of the Yun Group.
She wasn't some lowly woman who eloped or used her pregnancy to force herself into the Gao family.
"Shut up! You used every trick in the book to seduce Young Master Lu. Do you love him? You just want his wealth and status."
Yun Suiwan laughed upon hearing this, "That's right, I'm attracted to his wealth and status, and I'm about to become Mrs. Lu."
"Some people dreamed of marrying into the Lu family, but in the end, it all came to nothing."
At this point, Yun Wanqing's expression stiffened.
"And I became Mrs. Lu without lifting a finger. Well, it's normal that I became a thorn in the side of some people, since I'm so capable."
Seeing Yun Suiwan's smug expression, Yun Wanqing was naturally furious.
"Sis, Dongjue doesn't like you!"
"Oh? He likes you? Will he marry you?"
“You…” Yun Wanqing clenched her fists in anger, but she was at a loss for what to do.
Yun Wanqing wanted to team up with Yun Manzhu to make things difficult for her, but they didn't even consider their own worth.
She used to keep quiet because she was too lazy to argue with them.
Nowadays, Yun Suiwan's personality is the most harsh; whoever provokes her should be prepared to be torn apart.
As the saying goes, a kind person is often bullied, and a good horse is often bullied.
When someone doesn't know how to be grateful, then there's no need to be polite to them.
"Yun Suiwan, you really don't hide your ambition at all."
"Cousin, I have the ability, why should I hide it? Oh, right, if I remember correctly, the Lu family is your husband's biggest business partner, right?"
"Tell me, if I whisper a few words in Dong Jue's ear, do you think the Lu family's business partner will change?"
"You..." Yun Manzhu turned pale with fright. "How could Young Master Lu possibly listen to you?"
"Cousin, you don't know this, do you? Being with a man isn't just about 'seducing' him; you also have to win his heart and make him willingly do anything for you."
Seeing Yun Suiwan's arrogant demeanor, Yun Manzhu was truly frightened.
If she really caused her husband's family to lose their business, Gao Can would definitely divorce her.
"Yun Suiwan, you are despicable! You have disgraced the Yun family!" Yun Manzhu cursed angrily.
"Who exactly is disgracing the Yun family?"
Just then, Lu Dongjue walked in from outside.
He looked at everyone expressionlessly; his innate nobility and arrogance left the others stunned.
When Yun Suiwan saw him, her heart skipped a beat.
Lu Dongjue walked over, took her hand, and placed the card in her palm.
Yun Suiwan looked at the card in her hand, then raised her eyes to look at him.
He said with a forced smile, "I'm waiting for you to win my heart."
Yun Suiwan's face stiffened; he had overheard her boasting.
With that, Lu Dongjue released her hand without any emotion and then left.
Looking at the gold card in her hand, Yun Suiwan felt it was burning hot.
