Chapter 102 Access Code
Fu Mingshuang was driving the car and Lu Shiyu was sitting in the passenger seat. The car was so quiet that there was an awkward atmosphere.
She casually turned on the radio in the car, which was playing a song suitable for disco dancing: "The night is so beautiful, even though it is so dangerous..."
"It's too noisy." Lu Shiyu raised his hand to turn it off.
"I just love listening to it." Fu Mingshuang clicked it again.
"It's too noisy." Lu Shiyu said the same thing and raised his hand to turn it off.
Fu Mingshuang was dissatisfied and swerved the steering wheel, pulling over to the side of the road: "If you're not satisfied, get out of the car!"
Lu Shiyu rubbed his brows and said, "This is my car."
"I don't care, get out of the car! I've been putting up with you for the past two days! I advise you to hurry up, I can't control my right hand anymore."
Lu Shiyu paused for two seconds, then threw three words at Fu Mingshuang: "You're a bully in your own house."
Fu Mingshuang frowned: "What do you mean? Speak nicely and don't be sarcastic."
Lu Shiyu didn't get annoyed. He leaned back and stared at the glass in front of him: "This time, he looks a bit like the Fu Mingshuang I used to know."
Fu Mingshuang looked at him. The light and shadow outside the car made his outline appear very deep. After not seeing him for two years, his features had become more hardened, and he seemed to be increasingly accustomed to the beauty of the night.
"You're crazy." Fu Mingshuang didn't know what to say, so he just cursed.
"How come you've become so well-behaved since you started working?" Lu Shiyu asked slowly. The previously aggressive Fu Mingshuang had become much more restrained this time around. At least in front of outsiders, she wasn't as arrogant and domineering.
"I really need this job." Fu Mingshuang did not hide it.
"Need money?"
“No shortage.”
"Want to climb up the social ladder?" Lu Shiyu, who is in the middle of his profession, can naturally feel the halo brought by it.
"Gao Zhi? I'm a woman who is rejected even by your Lu family, okay?" Fu Mingshuang said disdainfully.
"Are you proud of rejecting me?" Lu Shiyu's face looked unhappy.
Blame yourself for bringing up things that are not related to the topic.
She looked away and was about to start the car, but Lu Shiyu stopped her.
"Since you're here, please buy me some medicine." Lu Shiyu poked the window next to him with his hand.
There is a drugstore right outside the window.
The pharmacy was lit with bright white lights. Fu Mingshuang was comparing two boxes of medicine in her hands, frowning casually, looking very focused.
Lu Shiyu sat in the dim car and looked at her in the bright light.
In the past, she wore heavy makeup, sprayed pungent perfume, and often wore low-cut clothes and short skirts to show off her good figure. She relied on her good looks to be domineering and violent.
But now, her collar was buttoned to her neck, her long sleeves covered her arms, and her skirt was below her knees. She looked dignified and decent, but...
Lu Shiyu could still recall the scene beneath the dense fabric, even the feel of his hands stroking it, still fresh in his memory...
After all, it was once so familiar.
He looked away, closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat.
Alcohol began to erode his nerves, as if all the shackles on his body were being opened bit by bit.
After Fu Mingshuang paid the bill, she returned to the car with a bottle of water and medicine. She helped Lu Shiyu, who looked weak and unable to take care of herself, unscrew the bottle cap. Her hand shook and water spilled onto the concave triangle on her skirt.
"Where's the tissue?" She patted Lu Shiyu who was resting with his eyes closed.
Lu Shiyu handed it to her and saw her take two and wipe the triangle area...
It's also a very familiar area.
Lu Shiyu forced himself to look away again, but the memory in his mind could not be shaken off.
He turned on the radio in the car, which was playing a Cantonese song: "Taste buds seek flesh, more innocent than a beast, who can resist the attraction of the flesh..."
Lu Shiyu's face darkened and he turned off the radio again.
"Take the medicine." Fu Mingshuang handed him the medicine and water.
Lu Shiyu took it, tossed and turned gloomily, and swallowed a few sobering pills.
Soon, Fu Mingshuang drove the car to a high-end sky-high apartment.
"We're here." Fu Mingshuang parked the car.
Lu Shiyu glanced out the window, looked at the familiar building from two years ago, and said, "I haven't lived here for a long time."
"Why?" Fu Mingshuang asked casually.
Lu Shiyu curled his lips and sneered, "Because there is no access code."
"You haven't solved this problem yet? It's been almost two years!" Fu Mingshuang didn't feel guilty at all, but instead looked disgusted. "Can't you just find a locksmith to pry it open?"
Lu Shiyu remained silent.
"Hey, why didn't you tell me earlier? Look, now we have to start all over again. Tell me, where do you live now?"
Fu Mingshuang took out her cell phone to use navigation, but Lu Shiyu turned off the phone and then grabbed her slender wrist.
"Since you're all here, why not go up and open the combination lock?"
Fu Mingshuang hesitated for a moment, pulled back her hand, and said, "I don't want it. We agreed to give you the password only after the divorce."
"We've been separated for two years, isn't it? Will you die if you give in?" At this point, Lu Shiyu couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Seeing Fu Mingshuang was indifferent, he changed his mind:
"If you open the door upstairs now, you won't have to make an extra trip to take me somewhere else, isn't that good?" He threw out the bait and tried to lure me in.
Fu Mingshuang thought for a few seconds and then said: "0305..."
"What?" Lu Shiyu was a little bit unbelievable. This was his previous password, the password that Ling Xiuzhu had set for him since he was a child before 06:30.
"0.3.0.5...." Fu Mingshuang thought he didn't hear clearly, so she repeated it again, then got out of the car and prepared to take a taxi home.
But after taking two steps, someone grabbed my hand and pulled me back:
"How do I know if you'll lie to me? Fu Mingshuang, you don't have any credibility with me. Come with me and try."
"Hey, Lu Shiyu, I'm warning you not to go too far! Hey Lu Shiyu, I'm getting angry, hey, hey, hey!!"
Unfortunately, due to the disparity in strength between men and women, Fu Mingshuang staggered into the elevator in her high heels as Lu Shiyu pulled her.
The figures of two people were reflected in the elevator, and Lu Shiyu clearly saw himself holding Fu Mingshuang's hand.
Two seconds later, he pretended not to see it, looking up at Fu Mingshuang's face, but her whole body was in his peripheral vision.
The wet triangle on the skirt was dark and extremely obvious.
He couldn't help but hold Fu Mingshuang's hand tightly.
"Ding~" the elevator arrived.
Lu Shiyu walked out carrying Fu Mingshuang and came to the door.
"Open the door, let me see if the password you said is correct."
Fu Mingshuang felt that her character was being questioned, and she uttered an unhappy "tsk" but still walked to the door cooperatively, preparing to enter the password...
I poked it several times, but the panel didn't respond...
Even the lights weren't on.
"Is your combination lock out of battery?" Fu Mingshuang said sideways.
Lu Shiyu: “…”
Fortunately, there was a power bank in Fu Mingshuang's bag. The two of them fumbled for a long time before finding the USB port. When they connected it to the power supply, it was not enough power to start the car.
They had no choice but to squat at the door and wait.
"Click"
The lighter slid the valve, and the flame lit a black cigarette. With a puff of smoke, the familiar floral scent lingered.
Fu Mingshuang looked at Lu Shiyu in astonishment, looking at the black cigarette held between his slender fingers.
"You, you smoke?!"
"What's the big deal..." Lu Shiyu glanced at her, "Didn't you drag me into this?"
"I, I..." Fu Mingshuang kept saying "I" for a long time but couldn't add the word "no".
"Do you want one?" Lu Shiyu held a cigarette between his legs and handed it to Fu Mingshuang.
"No, thank you." I was still in shock, so I responded politely.
"Have you quit?" Lu Shiyu asked.
"No."
The two fell into silence again...
Fu Mingshuang looked at Lu Shiyu's profile as he puffed out smoke. The piercing on his left ear hadn't healed yet. With such a sharp jawline and a face stained with alcohol, he looked like the kind of school bully who would skip classes and fight.
"When did you learn to smoke?" Fu Mingshuang asked.
"Just these past two years..." Lu Shiyu paused, then slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, carrying the same floral scent as Fu Mingshuang...
"When I'm thinking of you."
