Gu Mang looked at him silently.
Her gaze fell on his slightly open neckline. Two buttons were undone quite scandalously. The dim light in the car made his skin porcelain white and his collar bones were extraordinarily delicate.
He had always dressed like this before, but now he looked very eye-catching.
Especially with the thought of the eyes of those women just now, and the non-existent “fiancee”, she felt even more uncomfortable.
She leaned back lazily on the back of the front seat and squinted her eyes. She looked like she was about to have a talk with him.
Then Lu Chengzhou heard her nonchalant voice. “Could you please have some morals and act like a husband.”
Lu Chengzhou was speechless.
Gu Mang hooked his shirt collar with her fingers and her eyes were rather cold. “Button up and stop womanizing out there.”
“Womanizing?”
After he said that, he lowered his head. His neckline was slightly open and he could see the traces where she scratched him a few days ago on his skin.
Gu Mang pulled up his chin.
Lu Chengzhou raised his eyes and saw that there was no expression on her face. She said to him slowly, “The morals of a husband. Do you even know them?”
She sounded rather serious.
Lu Chengzhou couldn’t help but laugh. “Yes.”
He buttoned his shirt all the way to the top and covered himself properly. Gu Mang looked at his black shirt, which was a bit more abstinent than when it was open. It was even more appealing now, with the collar buttoned.
She moved her jaw and frowned.
Lu Chengzhou couldn’t figure out what she was thinking and asked her, “Is this alright now?”
Gu Mang tutted and the corners of her mouth twitched evilly. “Young Master Lu is so charming that he can even seduce me. No wonder so many people like you.”
“The way you say that makes me scared.” Lu Chengzhou raised his hand to help her tidy her hair and looked into her eyes. “So many people lust after me.”
Gu Mang was silent.
Lu Chengzhou’s hand fell on her earlobe and he pinched them. Then, he said seriously, “I have given you my body. You have to protect me well.”
As if she had not expected him to answer like that, Gu Mang’s eyebrows twitched and she did not respond. Lu Chengzhou smiled when he saw her speechless expression.
He hooked her by the waist and took her into his arms. He hugged her and pressed his chin on her shoulder. He said just by her ear. “I only want to seduce you, my fiancee.”
His words were filled with love and his tone was low and deep. Gu Mang’s ears felt as if they had been scalded by his breath. They were really ticklish. Her fingers curled up a little.
…
Old Madam Lu returned to the Lu residence.
Lu Zhan was already sitting in the living room and he got up. “Mom, what happened? Why did you call me over at such a late time?”
Old Madam Lu passed her handbag to her servant, then she told her to leave.
When the door was shut, she walked towards the sofa and sat down. She signaled for Lu Zhan to sit as well.
Then, Old Madam spoke. “Do you know who I met at the banquet today?”
If it was someone mediocre, Old Madam would not even bother to mention it. Lu Zhan stared at Old Madam and waited for her to continue.
“Huo Zhi.” Old Madam said. “Huo Zhi from Jijing Island.”
Lu Zhan was stunned. “Why would people from Jijing Island come to the capital? And it’s Huo Zhi himself…”
The power of Jijing Island could only be described with the word ‘terror.’ It held the indispensable lifeblood technology that countless countries could not do without. Huo Zhi had control over the entire island and he was only seen at conferences with other heads of state.
Old Madam picked up her teacup and took a sip. “We have to look into this carefully. We cannot let our guards down around Jijing Island.”
Lu Zhan nodded. “The news of Huo Zhi coming to the capital will soon spread to the other big families. A commotion is inevitable.”
