When Lu Yuanzhou came out of the bathroom, Chu Xiu had already slept in the bed. Lu Yuanzhou found a hair dryer and blew his short hair dry, then he lifted the quilt and got into bed.

Having slept together many times, the two of them were already used to this pattern, so there was not much embarrassment. But tonight was the first time they slept together after confirming their relationship, which had a different meaning.

In the past, they would just lie down and sleep properly, and at most they would cuddle together after falling asleep. Tonight, as soon as Lu Yuanzhou got on the bed, he couldn't wait to cuddle me in his arms and kissed me fiercely, which made both of them a little irritated.

"It's nice to have someone warm the bed." He said, leaning against Chu Xiu's forehead.

Chu Xiu chuckled and asked, "Who warms the bed for whom?"

Lu Yuanzhou raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and decided to give in to her, so he said, "I'll warm your bed."

"That's almost it." Chu Xiu smiled with narrowed eyes and kissed him on the tip of his nose again, which then provoked Lu Yuanzhou to kiss her even more wildly, and the two of them twisted into a ball in the thick quilt.

Any normal man would not be able to resist holding such a soft and fragrant beauty in his arms, not to mention that the woman in his arms is the wife he is going to spend the rest of his life with. It was very difficult for Lu Yuanzhou to suppress the surging emotions in his body.

After the kiss, the two looked at each other breathlessly. Lu Yuanzhou looked at her rosy face, and the love in his heart almost overflowed. He asked in a hoarse voice: "Leader, when can we get it done?"

Chu Xiu pretended to be dumb and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lu Yuanzhou didn't beat around the bush and said, "It was about the bed."

The blush on Chu Xiu's face deepened instantly, and she said, "Not now."

Although she said no, it gave Lu Yuanzhou hope. He hugged her tighter and asked, "If it's not possible now, when will it be possible?"

Chu Xiu hesitated for a while and said, "I'll discuss this after I finish my play."

Lu Yuanzhou calculated that he only had less than a month left, so he gladly accepted the offer and said, "Okay, I'll do it after you finish your work and come home."

"We'll discuss it later." She emphasized.

The mainland and the rest of the world just pretended not to hear it.

Chu Xiu felt that this topic was a bit embarrassing and didn't want to continue discussing it. Just as she was about to say that she wanted to go to bed early, she heard Lu Yuanzhou hug her and say, "When you get home, we'll tear up the agreement, okay?"

Chu Xiu was naturally willing, but she thought about the mole on her hand. If it really didn't work, could they still go on?

She was really unsure.

"Okay." Finally she nodded in agreement.

That night, Chu Xiu didn't sleep well all night, whether it was because something was on her mind or because the environment was unfamiliar. Lu Yuanzhou next to her was very calm, and it was unclear whether he was asleep or not.

The next day, Chu Xiu set the alarm for 6 o'clock, and she had to go back to the room that the program team arranged for her. The moment the alarm rang, she decisively turned it off, secretly glanced at the man beside her, and found that he was breathing steadily, obviously still asleep.

Only then did Chu Xiu breathe a sigh of relief.

However, as soon as she moved, Lu Yuanzhou woke up immediately, held her waist and was unwilling to let go. This was definitely a big test for Chu Xiu who was about to leave the bed.

"I have to get back to the front," she said.

"It's still early, lie down for a while." Lu Yuanzhou's voice was nasal, sounding like he was acting coquettishly.

Chu Xiu thought with amusement, he is obviously a domineering CEO, but when it comes to love, why is he so coquettish? He is just like a big husky.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Chu Xiu asked him.

"It's okay, but I didn't sleep as well as before. I guess it's because the bed here is too broken." Lu Yuanzhou made an excuse for himself.

Chu Xiu said: "I didn't sleep well either."

She knew in her heart that Lu Yuanzhou's poor sleep must be related to the injury to the red mole on her hand. Although it was only a small wound, it still affected its function. It seemed that she had to be careful to protect this mole in the future. If it got a bigger wound one day, this mole would probably be useless.

The morning shoot was shorter and was completed before noon. Afterwards, Chu Xiu hurriedly flew back to West City, while Lu Yuanzhou flew back to South City earlier than her.

Although it is only a short reunion, for people in love, it is already very satisfying.

After that, apart from a video call before going to bed at night, the two of them were usually too busy to even send WeChat messages.

Two weeks later, the food program participated by Chu Xiu and He Yihuan was broadcast on TV and received a lot of attention. This was Chu Xiu's first time on a variety show. Although she could not cook, her sweet and lovely image still attracted a wave of fans.

Especially her relationship with He Yihuan, both of them were on the hot search on the day the program was broadcast. In the program, He Yihuan revealed the details of the filming at that time. Only then did netizens know that the real reason why two people who had nothing in common before suddenly became good friends was that they were truly "friends for life and death."

However, Chu Xiu did not pay much attention to the numerous entertainment news on the Internet. She was busy filming every day, and when she was free, she was busy dating Lu Yuanzhou. She had no energy to pay attention to the outside world.

Lu Yuanzhou was also very busy during this period. He was competing with Qin Zhige for a multinational project. The business was huge. If he could win it, it would definitely be a qualitative leap for his own group.

It was rare for Lu Yuanzhou to devote his whole heart to something. Chu Xiu would occasionally listen to him talking about it on the phone and would try to recall the plot. However, it was originally a love story and not much was written about the business war. So Chu Xiu could not help much. She just reminded him to be careful and cautious, and to be on guard against others, because in the end, Lu Yuanzhou was betrayed by the people around him.

When the filming of "The Rage of Beauty" was nearing its end, her agent Lan Hua sent her a message that she might have a chance to appear on the CCTV variety show mentioned earlier. Lan Hua looked for many connections, but in the end, it was Lu Yuanzhou who made it happen. Although he was a businessman, he had a wide network of contacts and his words were much more effective than Lan Hua's.

"Mr. Lu is really reliable and cares about you. I think you should stop hesitating and just go along with him." Lan Hua acted as a matchmaker in a good mood on the phone.

Chu Xiu said unkindly: "Sister Lan, I forgot to tell you that I'm with him."

Lan Hua sighed and said, "I told you to tell me your feelings, so I'm ready. So what do you mean now? Do you want to make it public or keep it a secret?"

Chu Xiu said: "Let it be. If it is exposed, then make it public."

Lan Hua said, "Then I'd better prepare for the public announcement."

Later, Lan Hua mentioned the CCTV variety show to Chu Xiu again, saying, "To be precise, this is a cultural program. The first season came out last year and was very popular. So this year, there are many celebrities who want to be on the show. The competition is very fierce. In the end, the one you are competing with is He Yihuan. I heard that she also used her boyfriend's influence, but in the end, it was the Central Military Commission who had more connections."

Chu Xiu was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that there were so many people behind the scenes in the last show, and they had a fight with He Yihuan's team without her knowledge. You know, her close friendship with He Yihuan is still being hotly discussed on the Internet.

"Does He Yihuan know about this?" Chu Xiu asked. She had just found out about it. Maybe He Yihuan's situation was similar to hers?

Lan Hua said uncertainly: "I don't know about this either. I think he knows."

Chu Xiu: ...

After hanging up the phone, Chu Xiu opened WeChat, found He Yihuan, and clicked on the chat box. She thought about talking to He Yihuan about snatching the show, but she felt that it was not appropriate to do so. In the end, they were the ones who snatched the show. If she told He Yihuan that she had no prior knowledge, what would He Yihuan think? Would he think she was hypocritical and that she was showing off?

Chu Xiu didn't send a message in the end. She thought it would be better to wait until she met He Yihan before telling her about this in person.

Another half month passed, and after more than four months of filming, "The Beauty's Wrath" was officially completed. This was Chu Xiu's first starring role after coming to this world. The director was very satisfied with her performance and said that if there was a chance next time, he would like to ask Chu Xiu to play the female lead.

Due to sufficient funds and the script being completely in compliance with the original novel, the filming of the entire drama went exceptionally smoothly. Even Gu Qinghe, who has been filming for many years, said that he enjoyed the filming process very much this time.

After two killing banquets, Chu Xiu couldn't wait to pack up and return to South City.

Although she didn't live in the Lu family for a long time, during the time she was away, she missed the big house, the flowers, plants, trees and the people there very much.

Lu Yuanzhou is now Chu Xiu's official boyfriend. He is very aware of his identity. After knowing the arrival time of her flight, he spontaneously went to the airport early to pick her up. However, Chu Xiu can be recognized even with a mask on, so he naturally cannot go to the airport to pick her up, and can only hide in the nanny car and wait.

The two hadn't seen each other for a month, so it was inevitable that they were a little excited. After getting in the car, Lu Yuanzhou didn't care that Ran Ran and Lin Lin were beside them, and he directly hugged Chu Xiu on his lap, hugged her and kissed her for a long time, which made Chu Xiu so embarrassed that she hid in his arms and refused to raise her head.

On the way back, Lu Yuanzhou asked her, "Are you tired? I have a party tonight and need a female companion. If you are not tired, will you accompany me?"

Chu Xiu nodded and said, "I'm not tired. I'll go with you. What kind of banquet is it?"

Lu Yuanzhou explained, "When a business tycoon in South City holds a birthday party, most people in the business community will go."

It looks like another gathering of wealthy people.

She returned to Lu's house just in time for lunch. Butler Liu had someone prepare a large table of delicious food to welcome her. Lu Yuanzhou also diligently peeled shrimps and crabs for her throughout the meal, and his service was very thoughtful.

After lunch, Chu Xiu returned to his room and asked him, "Tell me, what is your purpose for being so attentive during the meal?"

Lu Yuanzhou hugged her and rubbed against her like a large dog, kissing her cheek and saying, "You said before that you can do it once you finish it."

Chu Xiu: ...

Lu Yuanzhou smiled and asked, "Shall we do it now?"

Chu Xiu said: "It's broad daylight, how can your thoughts be so dirty?!"

Lu Yuanzhou said nonchalantly: "I have been dirty for a month. I even prepared several boxes of condoms."

Get some boxes ready! Is he a beast?

Although Chu Xiu knew that this would happen sooner or later, she was not mentally prepared for the moment, so she said, "Aren't we going to attend the banquet tonight? I'm afraid that I won't feel comfortable the first time, so let's do it another day."

Lu Yuanzhou said: "Then we won't go to the banquet."

Chu Xiu: ...

Is it true that when faced with such a situation, men will only think with their lower body? ?

Although they said so, in the end the two of them still could not do anything, because tonight's banquet was very important and Lu Yuanzhou had to attend.

In the afternoon, a brand store came to deliver wedding dresses to her home. They were several sets of high-end custom-made clothes made for her by Lu Yuanzhou. A professional makeup artist also did her makeup, and she looked very grand.

Chu Xiu smiled and asked if this treatment was a bit exaggerated. Lu Yuanzhou disagreed and said that this was how the mistress of the Lu family should be treated.

The banquet that night was very luxurious and grand. Chu Xiu was taken by Lu Yuanzhou to meet many people. She finally understood why he valued this banquet. Because the cooperation partners that Lu Yuanzhou was trying to win were also present, this was a great opportunity to build relationships.

Since Lu Yuanzhou knew this, Qin Zhige, as his opponent, naturally knew it too, so as expected, Chu Xiu soon met Qin Zhige and He Yihan.

Later, the two men went to their partners to reconnect with each other, and Chu Xiu and He Yihuan found a chance to be alone.

After not seeing each other for a month, Chu Xiu felt that He Yihuan seemed to have changed a lot.

He Yihuan held two glasses of champagne, handed one to Chu Xiu, and said, "They have been playing very well recently."

Chu Xiu nodded and said, "I heard from Yuanzhou."

He Yihuan looked up at her, a faint smile on her lips, but the smile did not reach her eyes. She took a sip of champagne and said, "This kind of situation will only happen more in the future, because they are opposites."

Chu Xiu looked at her generously and asked, "So?"

He Yihuan sighed, looked away, and said, "Have you ever seen two husbands who are enemies but two wives who are good friends?"

Chu Xiu was stunned for a moment. He Yihuan's words contained a lot of information. She asked, "Do you know the relationship between me and Yuanzhou?"

He Yihuan nodded and said, "Qin Zhige told me that Mr. Lu and you have already obtained your marriage certificate, and you two are not just in a simple romantic relationship."

Chu Xiu: ...

He Yihuan said: "Aren't we best friends? Why do you have to hide it from me? I won't tell anyone."

Chu Xiu was feeling mixed emotions. She had kept the secret from He Yihan before because she and Lu Yuanzhou were only a couple by agreement, and it was not easy to talk about this kind of relationship in public.

After thinking for a while, she said, "My relationship with him is not as simple as you think."

He Yihuan shook his head and said, "It doesn't really matter. I'm getting ready to get married to Qin Zhige. To take his feelings into consideration, I may not be able to get too close to you."

Chu Xiu was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, she said, "I understand your approach, but there is one thing I want to ask you, do you mind if I compete with you for CCTV?"

He Yihuan sighed again and said, "Is it important to talk about this now?"

Chu Xiu smiled bitterly. It really didn't matter anymore. "I just want to let you know that I didn't know about the competition to be on CCTV in advance."

He Yihuan said: "If you knew, would you persuade your team to stop and give the resources to me?"

Chu Xiu: ...

She found that she couldn't answer this question. Lan Hua had tried her best to obtain resources for her and even used her connections in Luyuanzhou. This was her career and she couldn't let the team give up their previous efforts because of her own ideas.

He Yihuan smiled and said, "Don't worry. If I were the winner, I wouldn't give up this opportunity just because of you."

Chu Xiu didn't know what to say, she just felt extremely heavy.

He Yihuan was her first good friend when she came into this world. She never expected that this relationship would only last a few months. Reality is always cruel.

Afterwards, Lu Yuanzhou finished talking to his partners and came back to Chu Xiu, "What's wrong? You look down, are you feeling unwell?"

Chu Xiu held his arm, shook her head and said, "Nothing."

"Come on, I'll take you home." said Lu Yuanzhou.

"Is it okay to leave early?" Chu Xiu asked.

"We've already met the people we were supposed to meet. There's no point in staying here any longer." Lu Yuanzhou said, and then he took her to say hello to the host of the banquet, and then left with her.

As she was walking out, Chu Xiu unexpectedly saw a man standing in the corridor talking on the phone. She quietly pulled Lu Yuanzhou's sleeve and asked him, "Is that person Sheng Yi?"

Although Sheng Yi's company was acquired, he still looked well-dressed in a suit and tie, and did not look down and out.

Lu Yuanzhou turned his head to take a look, hummed, and said, "It's him. He lost his career, but he can still attend this banquet. It seems that he is doing well."

The two didn't eat anything at the banquet and were very hungry. After getting in the car, they discussed what to eat when they got back. Lu Yuanzhou said that he learned how to cook noodles from Uncle Liu and he could show off his cooking skills when he got back.

Chu Xiu then smiled and said that she was looking forward to his cooking skills.

The car was moving forward at a steady speed, and the two people were talking in low voices in the back. Suddenly, the car shook violently, and then there was a loud crash.

Chu Xiu was stunned. She wanted to sit up to see what happened, but she found that the car had started to spin and then crashed into the roadside guardrail.

In an emergency, Lu Yuanzhou rushed over and hugged her.

In the chaos, Chu Xiu saw a sharp unidentified object piercing the car window glass and poking towards Lu Yuanzhou's back. At that moment, Chu Xiu was unable to think and could only instinctively stretch out his left hand to block it.

Instantly, piercing pain quickly spread from the palm of her left hand, along with a bloody mess.

The palm of her hand was pierced.

The author has something to say:

Lao Mo has said that it is not heartbreaking, just a little physically abusive. However, the injury scene was designed from the beginning. This red mole is destined to be lost. After this scene, everything becomes sweet.

In order to comfort everyone’s fragile hearts, let Mr. Lu come out and give everyone red envelopes. There are messages here, hehe!
