He knew she didn't want to see him right now, and disturbing her abruptly would only make her more disgusted.
He hesitated at the door for a long time, but still couldn't muster the courage.
The corridor was silent, with only his slightly rapid breathing echoing in the air.
Suddenly, the door to the next room opened.
Chen Ke stood at the door with a wary expression, staring intently at him.
"Fu Xingzhou? What are you doing here?" Chen Ke's tone was icy, with a hint of hostility.
Fu Xingzhou was slightly taken aback, not expecting to run into Chen Ke here.
He quickly adjusted his expression and tried to sound natural: "This is a resort; I'm here to relax."
Chen Ke clearly did not believe his explanation, his eyes filled with suspicion.
"Relax? Are you sure you're not here to see Arno?" He took a step forward, blocking Fu Xingzhou's path, his tone becoming even more forceful.
Fu Xingzhou frowned slightly. He didn't like Chen Ke's questioning tone, but he suppressed his displeasure to avoid waking Li Susu.
"Chen Ke, let's find somewhere else to talk, so as not to wake her." Fu Xingzhou's tone was deep, carrying an undeniable air of authority.
Chen Ke hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
He stepped aside to make way for Fu Xingzhou, gesturing for him to follow.
A gentle night breeze blew through the pavilion.
Chen Ke crossed his arms, staring sharply at Fu Xingzhou, his tone filled with undisguised hostility: "Tell me, what exactly do you want by approaching Arno time and time again?"
Fu Xingzhou remained silent, his deep eyes appearing even darker in the night.
Chen Ke sneered: "Everyone knows that the Fu family wields immense power. But Arno is not a woman you can toy with. You'd better not get any funny ideas!"
Fu Xingzhou scoffed and retorted, "Is Chen Nuo really Chen Nuo?"
He paused, a hint of sarcasm in his voice: "She lost her memory, had plastic surgery, and forgot everything from her past. Didn't you ever investigate that?"
Chen Ke's expression changed, and his eyes flickered, clearly indicating that Fu Xingzhou's words had struck a nerve.
Fu Xingzhou took a step forward, getting closer to Chen Ke, his voice low and powerful: "Keeping her by your side now, preventing her from remembering the past, is truly selfish!"
Chen Ke clenched his fists, suppressing his anger, and said coldly, "What right do you have to talk to me like that? What is your relationship with her?"
The two were at loggerheads, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Fu Xingzhou coldly retorted, "I will make her remember everything. Then, it will be up to her to decide what to do."
He turned and left, leaving Chen Ke alone in the pavilion.
Watching Fu Xingzhou's retreating figure, an indescribable unease welled up in my heart.
In her room at Rose Villa, Li Susu woke up from her sleep, feeling a thirst.
She rubbed her eyes and got out of bed to get some water.
As I pushed open the door, a refreshing night breeze rushed towards me.
As night fell, everything in the villa was enveloped in tranquility.
Li Susu looked around and suddenly felt that the scene in front of her was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.
Li Susu didn't have time to think much.
She just wanted to drink some water as soon as possible to relieve the dryness in her throat.
She approached a nearby staff member and asked in a low voice, "Could I have a glass of water?"
The staff quickly delivered water to the room.
"Is there anything else you need? Would you like a bowl of hangover soup?" the staff member asked with concern.
Li Susu nodded and accepted the other party's kindness.
