Lu Huaijiao covered her eyes.
The large tassel that had been tied up so neatly fell to the floor beside the bed, and the pajamas that Lu Huaijiao was wearing were also thrown into a corner.
The man who had promised to go out and earn money immediately was now deeply immersed in a world of tenderness, unable to extricate himself.
Sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the terrace, falling on the princess bed in the middle of the room, casting dappled light on the pink blankets wrapped around the person.
Cicadas were chirping away in some tree, adding to the already sweltering heat.
Even those who stayed indoors were sweating profusely because the fans weren't on.
Not to mention the people wrapped in thin blankets.
The person, who was already irritable, began to pant softly due to the intense heat.
Amidst the chirping of cicadas, a delicate female voice rang out from a second-floor room with a terrace.
"Aren't you done yet?"
The voice carried a hint of sob and grievance.
The person was on the verge of tears.
His voice grew increasingly hoarse, and he seemed to be on fire. All he could do was lean down and kiss the aggrieved girl: "It'll be ready soon."
…………
In fact, it turns out that when a man says "immediately," he really means "it's still a long way off."
When Lu Huaijiao was finally freed, she looked like she had been pulled out of the water.
She pulled back the covers and peeked out, breathing heavily. Even though the air smelled a bit off, she didn't care at that moment.
It's impossible to be polite anymore, it's too suffocating.
Gu Changzheng got out of bed, poured water, brought it over, helped her sit up, and let her lean against him, carefully feeding her water.
Lu Huaijiao drank several mouthfuls of water before she felt a little more alive. She raised her bright red hands and accused Gu Changzheng in a hoarse voice, "Gu Changzheng, you bastard!"
"Mmm, I'm such a bastard. You've suffered so much, baby. I'll take you to take a bath, and then you can get a good night's sleep."
Gu Changzheng was always easy to talk to, especially when it came to Lu Huaijiao.
Once their needs are met, it becomes much easier to talk to them.
Even if Lu Huaijiao defecated on his head at this moment, he probably wouldn't mind.
(Lu Huaijiao: Please note, would I do something so disgusting?)
Lu Huaijiao glared at him disdainfully, but that harmless look only made Gu Changzheng's heart itch with desire again!
Fortunately, he knew how to control himself, so he carried her into the bathroom to take a shower. Then he came out, collected the soaking wet sheets, changed them into new sheets and blankets, and then carried Lu Huaijiao out of the bathtub.
"Baby, you've worked so hard. Go to sleep now."
He placed a kiss on the person's forehead, coaxed them to sleep, and then turned to wash himself.
When he came out of the bathroom, Lu Huaijiao was already fast asleep. Her swollen red lips were slightly pouting. Without a doubt, she was cursing him even in her dreams!
Gu Changzheng's thin lips curled up. Thinking of the scene just now, he felt that even if his wife scolded him, it was because she loved him.
He rummaged through the cabinet and took out some cooling and swelling-reducing medicine. He carefully applied the medicine to Lu Huaijiao's equally red and swollen palms, gently blew on them, and waited for the medicine to dry completely before putting her hands back under the covers.
He couldn't resist stealing several kisses on her cheek before taking the money, getting up, and going downstairs to leave.
In her dream, Lu Huaijiao seemed to hear the sound of a door closing. Unconsciously, she turned over while still clutching her blanket, continuing to curse Gu Changzheng, that bad man, in her dream.
The man she had scolded had changed into an outfit that would be hard for anyone to recognize, and arrived at the place he had scouted a few days earlier.
A privately owned appliance recycling plant.
He was wearing a hat, his face was painted black, and he even had a fake beard on, making him look like an old man in his forties or fifties.
To fit his current image, Gu Changzheng deliberately hunched over when walking, making him look even more like an old man.
He was carrying a large, dark, and worn-out bag.
Upon reaching the gatekeeper's post, he coughed and spoke a few words in a frail voice, confirming the agreement they had made earlier. The gatekeeper then let Gu Changzheng in.
"You're here? Did you bring any money?"
The factory workers saw him and asked him what was wrong.
Gu Changzheng raised his head, squinted his eyes and smiled, revealing his disguised black teeth.
Where is the goods I ordered?
"One hundred radios, one hundred watches, as previously agreed, a total of one thousand."
These radios and watches were broken when they left the factory. They looked brand new, but they were unusable. That's why they could be sold to Gu Changzheng so cheaply.
Gu Changzheng targeted them because he happened to know how to repair radios and watches. He had also checked them beforehand and knew he could fix this level of damage.
He roughly calculated that if he took the radios and watches back, repaired them, and then resold them, he could make a few thousand dollars.
"I need to check the goods first before I can pay you."
People who do these kinds of things at this time are incredibly bold, but that's all they have to do; they won't make any money.
The reason why Gu Changzheng has not been caught all these years is entirely because, in addition to being bold, he is also meticulous.
He is bold yet meticulous, and cautious enough to leave no room for doubt in his actions. This is why he has not been caught all these years.
Of course, there was probably some luck involved, as well as his unwavering belief that he absolutely could not be arrested.
As for the reason? Well, it's because he wasn't as good as Lu Huaijiao to begin with, so he wasn't good enough for her. If he had any stain on his record, how could he possibly marry her?
With this philosophy in mind, Gu Changzheng has been cautious and prudent in recent years and has been doing quite well.
As for the future, he absolutely cannot be arrested.
Didn't you hear what that 'vicious' woman Lu Huaijiao said? If anything happens to him, she'll remarry with the child, let another man beat his child, and sleep with his wife...
Gu Changzheng skipped the first sentence and focused entirely on what came after.
Let other men sleep with his wife?
Even if he were dead, he wouldn't let this happen. Even in death, he would rise from the ground to stop it from happening...
Lu Huaijiao's man can only be him...
The person watching Gu Changzheng check the goods didn't know what was wrong with him, but as he checked the goods in front of him, his face gradually became ferocious.
Are these radios or watches unsuitable?
Or what's going on?
The person next to him scratched his head, wondering why Gu Changzheng had started gritting his teeth.
Gu Changzheng was finally able to multitask, finishing checking the goods in front of him. After confirming that everything was correct, he packed everything up, paid, and left.
Not long after he left, the man who had just received the money waved to his subordinate.
“Go, follow him and see where he’s taking these bad guys.”
