"Why?"
"She's surrounded by so many outstanding men, some of whom are clearly interested in her. It's perfectly normal for men to be jealous."
Shen Zhuyu thought to herself, "Do you think everyone is like you, kid?"
"Who are you saying has feelings for Chu Yu?"
"Look, that refined type, the way he looks at Chu Yu is so affectionate, don't you think?"
Shen Zhuyu never imagined that Yu Xiangwen would like Chu Yu. Of course, it would be perfectly normal for him to like Chu Yu, but Yu Xiangwen was a gang leader. Shen Zhuyu had met him a few times and he didn't seem threatening at all. When he beat people, he was ruthless and cruel. She had heard that killing people was normal for him.
Shen Zhuyu still thinks it's better for Chu Yu to be with Dai Donglin.
"Guess what he does?" Chu Yu asked in a low voice.
Li Zhou looked at her. "A company employee?"
"He's a big shot in Xinyi City. You've heard of Xinyi City, right? Yu Xiangwen is one of the top figures in the Hong Kong underworld. A big shot like him is determined to get any woman he wants. If he really liked Chu Yu, why didn't he make a move sooner? Why did he drag it out for so many years?"
After dinner, Yu Xiangwen went to the bathroom to wash his hands. Chu Yu had drunk a bit too much and was standing unsteadily. The bathroom floor was a little slippery, and Chu Yu almost twisted her high heels. Yu Xiangwen helped her.
"Thank you." Chu Yu took a step back, instantly regaining her senses.
Yu Xiangwen asked with a half-smile, "Are you afraid of me?"
Chu Yu instantly sensed the danger, but remained calm on the surface.
"Why should I be afraid of you? You're not going to eat me! You and Longcheng are my lucky charms. Do you know what a lucky charm is? They always bring me good luck, giving me money and resources whenever I want."
Yu Xiangwen leaned against the bathroom wall and stared at her for a long time. In fact, in all the years they had known each other, Yu Xiangwen had never looked at her so openly. He rarely even glanced at her. He had always been restrained and his eyes were clear. He had never been like this before.
He's probably drunk.
Chu Yu's thoughts were written all over his face. Yu Xiangwen closed his eyes, leaned against the wall, and with a half-smile, hooked down his glasses. His arm hung down, and the glasses on his fingertips seemed about to fall off at any moment.
"Did you drink too much?"
"This little bit of wine can make me drunk? It just reminded me of some past events."
Past events? Only people with stories to tell would use that word. Chu Yu looked at him and felt that Yu Xiangwen's expression was unreal, as if it were something from a distant past. "Childhood or adolescence?"
"When I was very young."
Yu Xiangwen and Long Cheng were raised by a powerful figure who abused them, constantly beating them with chains and subjecting them to even greater mental abuse by forcing them to watch him make love with different women.
They matured early, and while Longcheng wasn't bothered by it, for many years afterward, he would gag whenever he was near women, especially when he saw their bodies. He was very ill, and so many women lay in his bed, each one exceptionally beautiful with a stunning figure, yet Yu Xiangwen had no interest in any of them.
He feels nauseous whenever he sees them.
Over the years, there has been only one different person.
Longcheng was right. He felt no disgust for her, only closeness. He indulged her more than anyone else. It was just that he was unlucky to have met her too late. She was determined and wouldn't easily let go once she had someone else by her side.
The mirror reflected a clean face, skin as smooth as porcelain, without a single blemish, perfectly pristine. Yu Xiangwen suddenly asked her, "If in the next life, I meet you before your man, would you consider trying with me?"
Chu Yu was taken aback. A married woman must be careful when answering such a question.
However, Yu Xiangwen was not someone she could fool or deceive.
Chu Yu frowned and thought for a moment before answering seriously, "I will not have a next life."
"Why?"
"Do you believe it? I have already lived two lives. This is my second life. It would be too greedy of me to ask for another life."
Yu Xiangwen paused slightly and asked her, "Did you spend your past life with him?"
Chu Yu shook her head honestly, "I didn't know him in my past life, and I lived alone all my life."
"So, anything is possible, Chu Yu. If there is a next life, I will definitely meet you before she does."
Chu Yu thought he had drunk too much, or perhaps the slightly tipsy night was too unbearable. Yu Xiangwen had gone a bit too far, so she didn't answer him, feeling that such a question was meaningless.
The next life is not this life, and what kind of life Chu Yu will lead in the next life is not something she can decide.
