Chapter 80. He came out wrapped only in a bath towel. ...
The room was dimly lit, with only a sliver of light seeping through the tightly drawn curtains, and an ambiguous atmosphere filled the air.
Looking at Chu Ruofu, whose face was flushed, beneath him, Gu Junsheng lowered his head and kissed her lips, saying, "I'm sorry, I haven't seen you for days, I missed you so much..."
He couldn't help but want to get close to her, losing his usual self-control.
Chu Ruofu felt his sincere apology, and her face flushed slightly. She had also missed him, but she was too reserved and shy to express herself.
These past two days, she's been entangled with Shen Wuyang, and thinking about Gu Junsheng makes her feel a little guilty. In short, all sorts of complicated emotions are floating around her, making it difficult for her to fully immerse herself in the relationship.
Her skin was fair and delicate, and it was easy for marks to be left. That day, Chen Wuyang was like a clingy and possessive puppy, gently biting her. Many marks were left in the hidden places that were visible to her.
She was afraid that if Gu Junsheng found out, everything would be over. She cared about Gu Junsheng the most and didn't want to make things awkward.
"Have you had lunch yet?" It takes a long time to drive here from Beijing, so I don't know if he has eaten lunch.
Gu Junsheng rushed to Haicheng, forgetting his normal eating habits. He had never been so anxious before, even when meeting important clients, he was always punctual and never late.
He was so eager to see her that he completely ignored his slight hunger.
He wanted to eat her more than the food.
When I embrace her, my desire is satisfied.
Chu Ruofu noticed that he hadn't eaten lunch, and in a moment of inspiration, she reached out and hugged him, her voice sweet and charming.
"I don't want to go out today, I want to stay home. How about we go downstairs to the supermarket now, buy some groceries, and have dinner at home tonight?"
Gu Junsheng looked down at her, and seeing her expectant expression, his Adam's apple bobbed. He suppressed his rising desire and said in a low voice, "Okay."
Chu Ruofu breathed a sigh of relief, a sweet smile curving her lips: "Then I'll change my clothes and we'll go out together."
Gu Junsheng released her, got off the bed, and left the bedroom to give her space to change her clothes.
Chu Ruofu, feeling guilty, stepped onto the clean carpet, locked the door from the inside, took off her pajamas, and grabbed a random set of clothes to put on as she rushed out.
As he came out of the bedroom, Gu Junsheng's gaze fell on her.
The clothes she was wearing were the ones he bought for her in Beijing. They complemented her complexion perfectly, making her look as elegant and noble as a daughter of a prominent family.
The two looked very well-matched standing together.
Gu Junsheng drove to a nearby shopping mall.
Chu Ruofu asked him what he wanted for dinner, Chinese or Western food. She preferred hot pot. Her cooking skills were terrible, so she didn't need to be so particular about hot pot. She just washed, chopped, and arranged the vegetables on a plate, and threw in whatever meat and vegetables she wanted.
“Hot pot smells too strong. If you really want to eat hot pot, go buy fresh ingredients, and I'll prepare it.” Gu Junsheng didn't immediately object, but suggested, “I can also make Western dishes like pasta and steak.”
If we eat hot pot at home, it will take at least several days for the smell to dissipate. She agreed to Gu Junsheng's suggestion: "Then let's eat Western food."
The two first went to buy Australian steak and pasta. Since she didn't have any red wine at home, she went to the wine section to choose the red wine she wanted to drink that night.
Chu Ruofu walked beside Gu Junsheng, looking at him in a suit and pushing a shopping cart, her expression somewhat dazed and incredulous.
Gu Junsheng frequents high-rise buildings and business banquets, so pushing a shopping cart while shopping in a supermarket seems out of place for him.
Noticing her scrutinizing him, Gu Junsheng lowered his cool, aloof eyes and looked at her: "Don't want to drink red wine?"
Chu Ruofu gently shook her head and said, "No, it's just that, how should I put it, you don't look like the type of person who goes to the supermarket."
Gu Junsheng doesn't go to supermarkets often, and he rarely even goes to shopping malls.
His personal assistant would pre-order food and put it in the refrigerator, and clothes would be custom-made at his home. Everything he needed in every aspect of his life was arranged by someone else, so he didn't have to choose anything himself; he just had to make the decisions.
If Chu Ruofu hadn't suggested eating at home, he would have taken her to a high-end restaurant for dinner, and afterwards he could have accompanied her shopping and bought her some jewelry, shoes, and bags as gifts.
His friends in his social circle all accompany their girlfriends on dates in this way, and the female companions naturally enjoy going to high-end venues and acquiring fame, fortune, and jewelry.
"Hmm." Gu Junsheng readily admitted, "I rarely go to the supermarket, maybe once a year."
Chu Ruofu laughed: "I knew you wouldn't shop at the supermarket, but you're good at picking things out, just like someone who shops at the supermarket often."
Gu Junsheng would compare the same products on the shelf, checking the quality and production date, which showed a very mature and gentle demeanor.
"Doesn't it seem like someone who knows how to manage a household?" he suddenly said casually.
Chu Ruofu felt as if she had been hit in the chest. Her eyes flickered, and she mumbled, "...Is that so?"
Gu Junsheng picked out an expensive bottle of red wine, and the two went to the self-checkout area together. He took out his phone to pay and left the supermarket. He carried a large bag of groceries in his left hand and held her hand with his right, just like a couple deeply in love.
Xue Fangfei was originally going to visit Chu Ruofu, but upon hearing that Gu Junsheng had come to Haicheng, she immediately said she wouldn't come to the apartment and told Chu Ruofu to have time to cultivate her relationship with Gu Junsheng.
In the apartment, in the open kitchen behind the island, Gu Junsheng had taken off his suit jacket, was wearing a white shirt, and had rolled up his sleeves as he prepared the Western-style dinner.
Chu Ruofu sat in front of the island counter, propping her chin up as she looked at him, feeling an overwhelming sense of happiness.
When they were filming dating reality shows before, she rarely paid attention to Gu Junsheng's cooking. Other female guests would be around him when he was cooking, and she felt embarrassed to stare at him.
A man cooking is just as mature and attractive as someone who is serious about his work.
Broad shoulders, narrow waist, strong and powerful arms, faintly visible blue veins, slender fingers—a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.
Soon, Gu Junsheng had prepared a mouthwatering dinner.
The pasta, steak, fruits, and vegetables were carefully arranged on the plate. Chu Ruofu washed two wine glasses, let them breathe, and poured in red wine. The scarlet liquid exuded a rich and mellow aroma.
The two sat facing each other. Chu Ruofu raised her glass with him and gently clinked it against his, producing a crisp sound of glass colliding.
She likes her steak well-done, and Gu Junsheng is very skilled at cooking steak; the texture is just right, and it tastes especially delicious.
As the two were chatting, Gu Junsheng suddenly brought it up: "I saw the video of you shooting your movie costume photos. Shen Wuyang was also in the studio."
Chu Ruofu's heart skipped a beat. She wasn't good at lying, so she honestly replied, "Yes, he is the author of the original novel for the movie and will be the producer during filming."
"Producer?" Gu Junsheng asked calmly. "Will he be here throughout filming?"
He knew Shen Wuyang liked her, so he would send her small gifts from time to time and pester her relentlessly, which was annoying.
Chu Ruofu nodded and said, "...Probably."
Gu Junsheng didn't ask any more questions. Since Shen Wuyang was the producer, it was normal for her to be on set. The two of them hadn't crossed any lines, so he shouldn't be too controlling of her like a jealous husband.
She doesn't like it.
Lu Xubai lost because he was too assertive and his overt possessiveness was too strong.
After dinner, Gu Junsheng cleaned up the mess, while Chu Ruofu took out her script and continued reading. After he finished cleaning up, he came over and hugged her.
He watched the script with her for a while, then went to take a shower. He didn't have any clothes at home, so he came out wrapped in a bath towel.
Chu Ruofu saw him wrapped in a bath towel, drying his wet hair, and her face couldn't help but feel hot.
The cool and mature man revealed his well-defined abs; he was tall with long legs, and every move he made was seductive.
She thought he must be secretly trying to seduce her.
