Chapter 21: Love Rivals

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Ci subconsciously dodged. At the same time, the other party's hand was firmly grabbed.

Lu Gan leaned back in his wheelchair. His expression was calm. It was as if he was holding a struggling insect. Even when he was sitting, he still emitted an impressive aura.

"Stay away from her."

Ma Lei was furious. He wanted to speak, but the pain caused to his wrist was increasing.

Lu Gan was still as calm as ever, not showing even the slightest hint of ruthlessness toward his subordinate. Finally, he let go of Ma Lei's hand and threw him aside. Then, he asked the restaurant's manager for a napkin and slowly wiped his hands.

"She's my fiancée."

Ma Lei showed a shocked expression but at the same time, he was pleasantly surprised.

"You actually have a fiancée?"

Song Ci felt that everyone was staring at her. She slowly raised the corner of her lips and revealed a warm smile.

"Yes, don't you? Maybe not, since you have such an ugly face!"

Suddenly, a pleasant voice could be heard from afar.

"Brother Gan, why are you here?"

Song Ci looked toward the source of the voice and saw a woman. She appeared to be very charming and there were dimples on her face when she smiled.

...

The woman walked in front of Lu Gan and said cheerfully, "You're finally willing to go out."

Lu Gan said calmly, "Yes. I want to have lunch with Song Ci."

Upon hearing that, the woman immediately stopped smiling. She just noticed that Song Ci was standing behind Lu Gan's wheelchair.

"Ru Ling, the two of you haven't been introduced, right?" said Ma Lei. He added, "Lu Gan said that she is his fiancée."

When Su Ru Ling heard that, her eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. She looked at Song Ci as if she wanted the latter to deny it. Song Ci merely curled the corners of her lips and replied softly, "Yes, we're about to get married."

Su Ru Ling's eyes were filled with tears. She cried like a fragile little flower. This caused Ma Lei to become anxious. He wanted to protect her.

After that, Su Ru Ling carefully sized up Song Ci. Her hands trembled as she looked at Lu Gan.

"Really? Brother Gan..."

Lu Gan was clearly annoyed. He directly turned to Song Ci and said, "You're hungry, right? Let's just leave."

His tone was soft and gentle. Su Ru Ling felt like she was being pricked by needles.

"Is she really your fiancée?"

"Are you deaf or something?"

Lu Gan was getting impatient.

Ma Lei could not hold it in any longer. He said angrily, "How can you talk to Ru Ling like that? She cares about you!"

Lu Gan ignored him. He looked at Song Ci again and said, "Let's go."

Song Ci still wanted to watch the show, but she complied and pushed Lu Gan's wheelchair forward.

Su Ru Ling could only look at Gan's back. She did not move for a long time. This sight caused Ma Lei's heart to ache terribly.

Just as he was about to console her, Su Ru Ling chased after Song Ci.

"I haven't eaten yet either. Why don't we have lunch together?"

As she said that, Su Ru Ling pulled out a chair and sat down.

Lu Gan said coldly, "I'm trying to spend some time with my fiancée. What does it have to do with you guys?"

Song Ci sat down quietly and continued to watch the show. Her eyes lit up.

Ma Lei advised, "Ru Ling, we should go. What's the point of eating with a person like her?"

However, Su Ru Ling did not want to leave. She looked straight at Lu Gan and asked, "Why? Are you scared?"

Song Ci silently exclaimed in her heart. This show was getting more interesting. Unexpectedly, Lu Gan simply put down the menu and looked at her with a smile.

Song Ci's hand subconsciously trembled. Lu Gan showed her the menu.

"So, what do you want to eat?"

Song Ci took a look and noticed that all the dishes were something that she had never eaten before.

"You should order. You're more familiar with this place."

Lu Gan nodded and said a few words to the manager.

Su Ru Ling looked at Lu Gan. He was taking such good care of that woman. In fact, she had never seen him smile like that before. He acted as if there was no one else around. In the end, she turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

Ma Lei hurriedly chased after her.

When Song Ci saw them leave, she thought, 'Is there no hope now?'

"She likes me."

Lu Gan said calmly.

Song Ci immediately raised her head and looked at him curiously.

"Her name is Su Ru Ling. I don't reciprocate her feelings, so you have nothing to be worried about."

Song Ci thought to herself, 'I'm not worried at all. I was just curious. This scenario is so different from what happened back at the house.'.

Hence, Song Ci continued to look at the man with inquisitive eyes.

"What kind of look is that?" asked Lu Gan. "Are you interested?"

Chapter 22: How Narcissistic

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Of course," said Song Ci with conviction. "You're my fiancé and she likes you. Isn't she coveting my private property? It's fine if you don't want to talk about it but if you do, I'm all ears."

Lu Gan chuckled.

"What else do you want to know about?"

"Who was the man who tried to hit me? What's their relationship?"

"Ma Lei. He likes Su Ru Ling."

Song Ci nodded. As expected.

Ma Hei liked Su Ru Lin, but she liked Lu Gan. They were just not made for each other.

Lu Gan continued, "If Ma Lei dares to make a move on you, tell him that I'll make Su Ru Ling pay double the price."

Song Ci raised her head in surprise and asked him with some uncertainty, "Really?"

"Of course. After all, I'm the person you love the most," said Lu Gan with a smile.

"..."

"Wait, that's not right," said Lu Gan again.

"?"

...

He continued, "I'm not only the person you love the most, but also your husband. How fortunate. You fell in love with such a perfect person ever since you were a student. In the end, we somehow ended up together. I envy you."

"?"

Is he a narcissist?!

After dinner, they were prepared to go home.

It was almost time for school to be over. Song Ci wanted to pick Song Yujin up.

"Send me to this primary school. I'm going to pick up my brother."

When Lu Gan heard this, he remembered that Song Ci was also taking care of a child. He asked hesitantly, "Then I'll be meeting him too?"

Song Ci immediately rejected that notion.

"I didn't tell him that you guys would be meeting. He's probably unprepared. Things would be a little awkward."

"Did you tell him that you're getting married?" asked Lu Gan.

"Of course. However, these are two different things. Maybe next time?"

"There's no need to go through so much trouble. We're about to get married and you've already met my family. You can just move in."

"?"

That was too fast!

Lu Gan looked at the shock on her face and laughed.

"What? You've had a crush on me for so long. Don't you want to move in with me as soon as possible?"

Song Ci could only put on a fake smile.

"Of course I do. I'm just taken aback by my happiness!"

Lu Gan smiled.

"Understandable. After all, I'm an outstanding person. I sympathize with your feelings of unrequited love."

Song Ci felt that he was acting really narcissistic!

After Song Ci picked up Song Yujin, she talked to him about moving that very night.

Song Yujin paused for a moment while eating.

"Where are we moving to?"

"I'm getting married so obviously, we're moving to my partner's house."

Song Ci put down her chopsticks and explained, "He was injured in a car accident. His legs are hurt so he'll have a hard time if he's living in our house. Let's just accommodate him and go to his place, okay?"

Song Yujin blinked and asked, "What do you mean his legs are hurt?"

"He needs a wheelchair to move around. Do you know what that is?"

Song Yujin finally understood. His sister's future husband was a disabled person. He lowered his head and continued eating. Then, he asked softly, "When will we move?"

"Tomorrow. I'll clean up tonight. Once school is over, I'll pick you up and we'll head over."

Song Yujin nodded and did not say anything else. He was as quiet as ever.

Song Ci felt that he was a really sensible and mature child. She raised her hand and picked up a piece of tenderloin. Then, she placed it in Song Yujin's bowl.

"It's sweet and sour. You like that, right?"

Upon hearing that, Song Yujin realized that Song Ci had specially made this sweet and sour pork tenderloin for him. He raised his head and looked at his sister. His eyes filled with confusion.

"Thank you," said Song Yujin in a low voice. After that, he continued to eat obediently.

Once dinner was over, Song Yujin wanted to wash the dishes. However, Song Ci stopped him.

"Go read some books or pack up your things. I'll handle this."

Song Yujin looked at her with a complicated expression again. He could not understand what she was thinking, so he just went back to his room.

Song Ci cleaned the kitchen and started to pack her luggage. Suddenly, she heard the phone ring.

Apparently, someone named "Tao Mi" called. Based on her memories, this person was one of the original Song Ci's good friends.

As soon as she picked up the phone, she heard Tao Mi say loudly, "Song Ci, what are you doing? Come to the night bar quickly. Young Master Di is here."

Song Ci held the phone and her eyes twitched. Young Master Di?

Chapter 23: My Future Is to Be a Villain's Mother

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Ci gathered her thoughts and finally remembered Young Master Di. His full name was Di Zhongyang and "Song Ci" had a crush on him.

However, she was not interested in Di Zhongyang and immediately rejected the invitation.

"No, I'm busy."

Tao Mi smiled mockingly.

"What could be more important than Young Master Di?"

Song Ci thought to herself, 'That's too much.'

Then, she promptly hung up.

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

Tao Mi could not believe what was happening. Did Song Ci actually ignore something that involved Di Zhongyang? She quickly called her again.

"Are you crazy? It's Young Master Di. Di Zhongyang! He's coming over right now. Don't you want to see him?"

"No," replied Song Ci calmly. "I'm not interested in him anymore."

Tao Mi said in a mocking tone, "That's enough. Every time he gets close to someone, you'll act like you're not interested anymore. How many times has this happened?"

"I'm serious this time. You don't have to call me anymore," said Song Ci with a smile.

Tao Mi did not believe her.

...

"I'm telling you, Di Zhongyang will be here tonight. You have to seize the opportunity."

Song Ci hung up the phone. Her future was to be the mother of that perverted villain, Lu Suo. No one could change her decision.

Song Yujin did not have a lot of luggage. He only brought along a small suitcase and backpack.

Song Ci's luggage was more or less the same. Since she was not originally from this world, it was only natural that she did not have any sentimental feelings toward most of the original Song Ci's belongings. She only packed the necessities.

As she was packing, she heard thunder coming from outside. Suddenly, heavy rain began to pour. Song Ci turned her head and looked out the window.

'Would the rain stop by tomorrow morning?'

Meanwhile, Lu Gan had returned to his bedroom after checking Lu Suo's homework. He also heard the thunder. It was so loud that it gave him a headache. It even caused him to become anxious and depressed.

Lu Gan knew that it was time for him to sleep. He had been awake for almost forty hours. His body was getting weary.

However, he just could not fall asleep.

Lu Gan pushed his wheelchair to the balcony by his bedroom. He looked at the rain outside and slowly lit a cigarette.

This problem occurred ever since he was discharged from the hospital. Every time he closed his eyes, he would picture the car accident. Lu Gan's brother protected his wife fiercely. He hugged her tightly and pressed her under his chest, hoping that it would keep her safe. Unfortunately, she never opened her eyes again.

A steel pipe went straight through their hearts and they died on the spot. At the same time, Lu Gan was protecting Lu Suo in his arms. He had to watch his brother and sister-in-law die in front of him.

Lu Gan woke up from this nightmare repeatedly. His clothes would be covered in sweat.

Hence, he began to reject sleep. He did not want to return to the scene of the car accident and fall further into depression. This worked. He never dreamt about that incident again because he could not sleep.

Ironically, it worked too well. Unless Lu Gan took sleeping pills, he could no longer fall asleep.

Of course, Lu Gan knew that he could not keep relying on the pills or he would become dependent on them. Thus, he would only take them when the situation was dire.

Nevertheless, every time he took the pills, he would have the same nightmare again and again. Whenever he opened his eyes the next day, he would have a headache and be in a state of trance.

Lu Gan knew that he could not keep this up. Soon, his body would not be able to endure it.

Therefore, he actively sought treatment. Sadly, it was all useless. Be it mental or physical treatments, his illness could not be cured.

Just as he was about to give up, Song Ci appeared.

Somehow, she was able to make him fall asleep peacefully. He did not have any nightmares and would wake up feeling refreshed.

Due to this, he allowed Song Ci to stay by his side.

Song Ci really appeared at the right time.

She was basically a gift from God.

The more he thought about it, the more he wanted to see her.

So, he took out his phone and sent a message to Song Ci.

[ What are you doing? ]

Chapter 24: What I Can't Get Always Gets Better

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Ci's reply was always timely.

[ Packing my luggage. ]

[ Is it a lot? I'll get the chauffeur to pick you up tomorrow. ]

[ No, and thank you! ]

[ You're welcome. ]

Another thunder could be heard. It irked Lu Gan. To get rid of his annoyance, he decided to give Song Ci a video call.

This surprised Song Ci. After thinking for a while, she sat on her bed and answered.

Lu Gan's face was a little pale. He leaned against his wheelchair and put on a lazy expression.

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

This was the first time Song Ci had seen him like this. He was totally different from usual.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Gan asked hesitantly, "Do you want me to use a beauty filter when chatting with you?"

Was it really necessary?

"In my eyes, you're already very handsome. In fact, you're the most handsome man in this world. There's no need for filters," said Song Ci.

Lu Gan never expected to hear something like this. He immediately laughed.

...

Song Ci was puzzled.

"What are you laughing at? Am I wrong?"

Lu Gan nodded. He looked at Song Ci and said gently, "You're absolutely right. I don't need filters when video chatting with you. Otherwise, you would also want to use it for yourself."

Song Ci felt that he was really thinking too much.

However, she was relieved to see him smile.

Normally, Lu Gan was confident and cheerful in front of her.

Hence, she instinctively hoped that he would always be happy.

Just like now, he had returned to his usual self.

"I'm not going to turn on a filter. I'm also beautiful. Why would I need it?" said Song Ci proudly. Then, she asked, "Why did you suddenly look for me to video chat?"

Lu Gan replied calmly, "There's thunder outside."

"So?"

Song Ci smiled and teased, "It can't be that someone as proud as you is actually afraid of thunder, right?"

Upon hearing that, Lu Gan slowly raised the corners of his lips.

"No, I just thought of something."

"What?"

"I was just wondering how much it takes to satisfy you... Seven times in one night... A strong man… True happiness... There are many things that I don't quite understand. Can you explain them to me?"

Song Ci lowered her head in shame and anger.

Your fiancée had gone offline!

Song Ci hung up the video call without saying anything.

At the same time, Lu Gan no longer felt pent up.

He smiled happily and sent Song Ci another video call invitation. However, Song Ci declined without any hesitation.

Lu Gan could only continue to send messages.

[ What are you doing? The man that you've been secretly in love with for so many years has sent you a video call. Yet, you declined? ]

Song Ci felt that maybe she should fall for another man. Possibly Di Zhongyang?

[ Perhaps it would have been better if my feelings for you remained as a crush. ]

Lu Gan raised his eyebrows.

[ Is that so? ]

[ Maybe the man I had a crush on was just my imagination. It might not be the real you. After all, what I can't get always gets better! ]

[ Maybe I made you unable to stop. But strictly speaking, you haven't won me over yet… ]

"..."

How could he say that?

Clearly, he just wanted to anger her to death!

[ Be good, answer the video call. ]

After Lu Gan sent that message, he requested another video call.

Song Ci answered it helplessly. She pursed her lips as she looked at him.

Lu Gan saw her puffy cheeks. She really looked like a pufferfish. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't tease you anymore."

"You're aware of your actions?"

Lu Gan nodded.

"Yes."

"?"

He dared nod?!

"You're just teasing me because I like you!"

Lu Gan confessed, "Yes."

"Yes?"

"That's the truth."

Lu Gan laughed.

"Don't worry, your man isn't a narcissist."

Song Ci snorted coldly.

"How are you not a narcissist? You're clearly acting like one!"

Lu Gan chuckled softly.

"You flatter me."

Song Ci reached out to cover her face and did not want to say anything. She was no match for him!

Lu Gan smiled.

"Alright, I'll stop. Let's get down to business."

"What is it?"

Song Ci asked doubtfully.

"I'm going to contact Sunlight Media's manager in a few days. You'll be signing under her name."

Song Ci did not expect Lu Gan to keep that part of his words.

"My current contract hasn't expired yet."

"I'll get Sunlight Media to help you pay the penalty."

Obviously, Lu Gan was very wealthy.

"That's not very appropriate," said Song Ci with a frown.

"So you want to stay with your current company?"

Lu Gan scowled.

Chapter 25: Did Not Belong

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Based on how David was treating her, Song Ci knew that she would be sold off if she continued to stay in her current company. She should find another way out, but there were some hesitations.

"You really think that my acting is not bad?" asked Song Ci.

"If I did, I wouldn't have made the offer."

Lu Gan replied seriously.

"But you always fall asleep."

Song Ci complained.

Lu Gan pressed the space between his brows.

"Because I'm really tired."

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

"..."

"Why don't we try again tonight? I've been fine for the past two days. I would probably stay awake."

Lu Gan said gently.

"Probably?"

Song Ci was very doubtful.

...

Lu Gan nodded.

"I… Will try my best."

Song Ci curled her lips, but she did not refuse.

"What would you like to watch this time?"

"It's up to you."

Lu Gan really did not care.

Song Ci thought of another scene from the audition.

"Alright, I've made up my mind. Let's begin!"

For some reason, Lu Gan moved his wheelchair toward his bed.

Then, he skillfully and quickly got onto the bed and leaned against it.

Song Ci was speechless.

"Are you just going to sleep directly?"

"Of course not."

Lu Gan refused to admit it.

Song Ci chuckled.

"Why don't you just lie down directly? Wouldn't it be more comfortable when you fall asleep?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Gan nodded in agreement.

"You're right."

"?"

Song Ci could not help but curse in her heart!

'Is he f*cking serious?!'

Lu Gan put his phone down and lay under the blanket. Once he was in a cozy position, he smiled at Song Ci and said, "I'm ready."

Song Ci was rightfully annoyed!

Lu Gan asked, "Aren't you going to start?"

What was the rush? Had he taken a sleeping pill?

Song Ci huffed angrily. Nonetheless, she picked up her phone helplessly and started her performance.

Lu Gan lay on the bed and watched. Song Ci was playing the role of a human trafficker. She sat calmly while she was being "interrogated by the police". Her eyes were filled with disregard for life.

Lu Gan watched quietly until she finished her performance.

"Not bad. You acted well."

"That's true," said Song Ci proudly.

Suddenly, she realized something.

"You didn't fall asleep this time?"

"..."

Lu Gan was also a little puzzled.

Did it only work when Song Ci was personally performing in front of him?

He was perplexed, but the corners of his lips slowly curled up into a smile.

"I've already said that I'm not tired today."

Song Ci smiled.

"Were you sleepy before because I acted poorly?"

"You have to be more confident in yourself."

"It's because you fall asleep whenever I perform. People might think that you're taking sleeping pills!"

Lu Gan thought to himself, 'You're not that far off.'

He spoke a few more words with Song Ci before hanging up the video call. Then, Lu Gan turned off the lights and closed his eyes.

Two hours later, the lights in the bedroom lit up again. Lu Gan helplessly pulled open the drawer and took out a bottle of sleeping pills. He poured out a few pills and was about to swallow them.

However, he hesitated and put the pills back. He did not want to have nightmares anymore.

Lu Gan sighed. It would be great if Song Ci was by his side.

Fortunately, that was happening soon.

Lu Gan lay on the bed and closed his eyes again. All he could do was wait for morning to come.

The next morning, Song Ci pulled open the curtains. It was bright and sunny. The air was also fresh.

"I'll pick you up in the afternoon. We won't be going home. Instead, we'll go to Uncle Lu's house together," said Song Ci to Song Yujin during breakfast.

Song Yujin was quiet for a few seconds before replying, "Okay."

When he exited the door, he looked at the apartment that he had been living in for a few months.

Song Ci noticed the reluctance in his eyes. She bent down and patted his head, comforting him.

"Are you reluctant to leave? Don't worry. We can come back in the future. If you really don't like Uncle Lu's house, I'll discuss it with him. Perhaps he'll be willing to move in with us instead. Let's just try to accommodate him for now since he's not in good health, okay?"

Song Yujin nodded and did not say anything. It was not that he could not bear to leave. He just felt a little bit sad

First, they moved from their mother's house to this place. Now, they were moving again, It was a complicated feeling.

It was as if he could not stay in a place for long. There was no sense of belonging.

Chapter 26: Lu Suo's World

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Yujin could not describe his feelings with words. He felt like a dandelion. Whenever the wind blew, he would be off. He had no roots and could only follow the direction of the wind.

The little boy blinked and lowered his head. Then, he changed into his new sports shoes and walked out with Song Ci.

Meanwhile, Lu Suo was in a good mood.

He drank some milk and asked, "Will Auntie Song and her brother move in today?"

"Yes. Song Yujin will come after school."

Lu Gan explained.

"Song Yujin is Auntie Song's younger brother. He's just one year older than you. You should call him little uncle."

Lu Suo smiled and nodded.

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

"I know."

Lu Gan smiled as well. He raised his hand to pat Lu Suo's head and said gently, "When Auntie Song is here, you have to behave."

Lu Suo blinked.

"I've always behaved."

"That's true."

...

Lu Gan suddenly thought of something and continued, "If something unpleasant happened during your time together, you have to tell daddy, understand?"

His tone was soft and his eyes were very caring.

Lu Suo looked at him. For some reason, he felt a little sad.

Lu Gan would not act like this in the past. This was more of his father's appearance.

In fact, he almost forgot the original Lu Gan's personality.

Lu Suo racked his brain for a long time. Finally, a memory flashed through his mind. In the past, Lu Gan was like an older brother who would take him out to play. The former would also help him escape when his father wanted to reprimand him.

Every time, his father would helplessly say, "Don't spoil him. He hasn't done his homework yet..."

Lu Gan would smile very magnanimously and say, "Lu Suo is smart. His homework is not important. Once he learns something, he doesn't have to practice anymore."

The two of them would high-five in places his father could not see. Lu Gan would also secretly buy him ice cream that his father did not want him to eat.

Basically, Lu Gan was like a big child. He would take the role of an older brother and play with him. They liked to tease his father and see the latter's helpless and indulgent smile.

However, after the car accident, Lu Gan changed. He became like his father and began caring for him.

Of course, Lu Suo knew this was not Lu Gan's original personality.

He just took on the responsibility of being his father.

Lu Suo did not know if he would be happy like this, but he prioritized Lu Gan's well-being. So, he did not oppose the latter's marriage.

Marriage was a good thing.

His father had mentioned that the happiest thing in his life was to marry his mother. Now, his uncle was about to get married. He should be very happy too, right?

Lu Suo looked at Lu Gan with his innocent and beautiful face.

"Auntie Song is moving in and the two of you are getting married. Do you like her? Are you happy?"

Lu Gan smiled.

"Don't ask so many questions!"

Lu Suo pouted.

"Are you happy or not?"

Lu Gan nodded and pinched his face.

"Hurry up and eat. The driver is waiting to take you to school."

"Okay."

As long as Lu Gan was happy, Lu Suo would also be happy. Hence, he welcomed Song Ci's arrival and promised to be good.

After all, he only had one family member left. Lu Gan's happiness was important to him.

Lu Suo would always remember that day.

The ward was very noisy. When he opened his eyes, his grandfather said that his parents had left.

"Where did they go?" asked Lu Suo in confusion.

His grandfather sighed and said in a low and hoarse voice, "Lu Suo, your parents died. The doctors could not save them..."

Lu Suo finally understood that his parents were never coming back. He lay on the bed in silence and tears automatically flowed out of his eyes. That night, the little boy cried for a long time.

His grandfather told him, "You still have me. Don't be afraid."

"Where's my uncle?"

Lu Suo remembered the second before he lost consciousness that Lu Gan was protecting him.

"He's injured and hasn't woken up yet. When he wakes up, I'll bring you to see him."

Lu Suo did not care. He lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed.

No one could stop him. In the end, they could only carry him to Lu Gan's ward.

Lu Gan was wearing a hospital gown. His face was pale as he lay on the hospital bed.

Lu Suo looked at him and slowly pull the blanket away. Then, he crawled onto the bed without uttering a word. He only quietly hugged Lu Gan.

It was a sad and helpless sight.

Lu Suo waited for a day before Lu Gan woke up. The latter anxiously asked, "Are you okay?"

Chapter 27: You Must Tell Me if You're Bullied

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Suo nodded.

"That's good."

Lu Gan heaved a sigh of relief, but then he immediately asked, "How are your parents?"

Lu Suo's eyes instantly turned red. He hugged Lu Gan and cried miserably. It was too difficult for him to reiterate the truth.

Lu Gan still did not understand. He pulled out the needle from his hand and was about to get out of bed. Unexpectedly, he fell to the ground. His legs could not move.

The little boy struggled to help him up.

"You're injured. When I grow up, I'll take care of you, okay?"

Lu Gan turned to look at him. Lu Suo's face was full of tears. He patted his head.

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

"Don't worry. It's not a big deal..."

Lu Gan did not have time to be shocked, angry or digest anything. Since Lu Suo was still young, he instinctively cared for him. In fact, Lu Gan pushed all his personal emotions away.

"From now on, I'm your father!"

Lu Suo nodded. At that time, he saw the change in Lu Gan's eyes. The latter really felt like his father.

Lu Gan had hidden his original personality.

...

He was unable to be as happy as before either.

Therefore, Lu Suo only wished for his happiness.

As long as Lu Gan was happy, he would be too.

Song Ci sat in the car that Lu Gan had sent to pick her up. When she saw Song Yujin coming out of the school gate, she immediately got out and waved at him.

"Yujin!"

Song Yujin was already used to Song Ci picking him up after school.

He calmly walked towards Song Ci.

"This is Uncle Lu's car."

Song Ci explained.

Lu Gan was worried about the amount of their luggage, so he asked the driver to bring an SUV over. Song Ci pulled Song Yujin into the car and said, "I've already put your suitcase in the car's boot. There's nothing to be worried about."

Song Yujin nodded and said calmly, "Thank you."

Song Ci pinched his little face.

"Why are you being so polite with your sister?"

Anyway, the driver started the car and drove towards Lu Gan's house.

The route taken was clearly different. Song Yujin began thinking to himself, 'I don't know if there's a bus from Uncle Lu's house to my school.'

Indeed, there were no bus stops outside of Lu Gan's house. He lived in a villa area. There was not even a taxi, let alone a bus

Song Yujin was a little worried. Without a bus, how was he supposed to go to school? He turned to look at Song Ci and planned to tell her the issue later.

After dropping them at the front door, the driver drove to the garage.

Song Ci stood in front of the Lu family's villa and took a deep breath. She lowered her head and looked at Song Yujin.

"Are you ready?"

Song Yujin was still as composed as ever. He replied coldly, "Yes."

When Song Ci saw him like this, she could not help but feel worried. She bent down and looked straight into Song Yujin's eyes.

"Tell me at once if Uncle Lu's child bullies you. Don't keep everything to yourself!"

Song Yujin blinked. He could not help but ask doubtfully, "Isn't he younger than me?"

"Even a younger child can bully those who are older!"

Song Ci said helplessly.

After all, Lu Suo was the most ruthless and merciless character! He was also Song Yujin's biggest rival in the future. The latter and his wife even ended up in a life-and-death situation!

Lu Suo must have grown up in an abnormal environment. Otherwise, how would he turn out that way?

"Even though he's young, he might have a bad temper. If the two of you ever fought, you must tell me. No matter what, you're still my younger brother. Moreover, I'm married to his uncle. He should respect you as you're his little uncle."

Song Yujin nodded.

However, he did not really care. If Lu Suo tried to pick a fight, he could just ignore him. One could not fight by themselves.

Besides, Song Yujin was confident in himself. As long as he won, the other party would be obedient.

Of course, he would not take the initiative to find trouble with Lu Suo. At the same time, he would not let Lu Suo bully him either.

Basically, Song Yujin did not take Lu Suo seriously. How fierce could a child younger than him be? Bully him? That did not sound possible.

Song Ci noticed that Song Yujin was indifferent. She became even more worried. If they had been together since young, they would not fight so heavily in the future, right?

After patting Song Yujin's head, Song Ci pressed the doorbell. A joyful face appeared in front of her. He asked sweetly, "Auntie Song? Come in. I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Song Ci was speechless for a moment. Finally, she hesitantly uttered, "You are..."

At the same time, Song Ci began thinking to herself, 'This is definitely not Lu Suo!'

"I'm Lu Suo!"

Lu Suo answered quickly. He was smiling like a little angel.

"Auntie Song, You can just call me Little Suo!"

Song Ci held Song Yujin's hand tightly.

Lu Suo continued, "Auntie Song, quickly come in. I'll bring you to my dad."

Song Ci nodded as if she was in a daze.

Clearly, she was shocked. This Lu Suo was completely different from the original. Song Ci needed some time to adapt.

Lu Suo noticed Song Yujin by the side. He did not really care about him.

The main priority was Song Ci because she was the person who could make his father happy. Therefore, he deliberately pretended to be obedient and kind. He wanted Song Ci to like him. Her little brother was just an extra. Hence, he did not really pay any attention to Song Yujin.

...

Regardless, Lu Suo revealed a sweet smile and said in a childish voice, "Hello, little uncle."

Song Yujin had heard so many warnings from Song Ci about Lu Suo being a fierce child. However, when he saw the friendly child in front of him, Song Yujin could not help but stare at Song Ci. It was as if he was saying, "This is it? Fierce? Bullying? He's obviously very cute!"

"Hello!"

Song Yujin replied politely.

After revealing a shy smile, Lu Suo looked directly at Song Ci.

"Let's go in and meet my dad."

"Okay."

Song Ci followed the little boy.

"My dad's legs are injured, so we have an elevator at home. I don't usually take it, but since you've brought so many things today, we should for convenience's sake."

Lu Suo was very thoughtful. Song Ci could not help but cry out in her heart, 'What happened? How did this little cutie turn into such a pervert?'

"Thank you, Little Suo."

Song Ci said with a smile.

Lu Suo looked at Song Ci and said in an especially sweet voice, "When my dad sees you, he'll surely be very happy. He's been waiting for you all this while. He told me that he likes you. In fact, he even chose a room specifically for you. It's right next to mine. This way, we can study together and play together."

"?"

Lu Gan actually said that to a child? That he liked her? Liked teasing her, right?

Nonetheless, Song Ci calmly said, "Really? He's so thoughtful."

"Of course. He likes you!"

Lu Suo said sweetly.

When Song Ci heard his words, the smile on her face grew wider. She had always liked kids. Even though Song Yujin was a child, he constantly acted like an adult. However, now, the child in front of her was saying such adorable things in such a cute voice. Naturally, she felt a little happy.

It really felt like Lu Gan had invited them to stay with him because he liked her.

They chatted along the way. Not long after, they arrived at Lu Gan's study room.

Lu Gan had been waiting all this while. When Lu Suo saw this, he thought to himself, 'Looks like daddy really likes Auntie Song.'

Thus, he said happily, "Daddy, look who's here!"

Lu Gan looked at Song Ci and Song Yujin.

After that, he pushed his wheelchair over.

"Why didn't you call me? I was just about to go down."

"I was going to call, but Little Suo came as soon as I rang the doorbell. He brought us here."

After saying that, Song Ci suddenly laughed.

"Based on what Little Suo said, it seemed like you missed me very much. You were waiting for me to come. Did you really fancy me that much?"

Lu Gan looked at Lu Suo.

"?"

Lu Suo pouted innocently.

"I... I wasn't wrong..."

Chapter 29: The Male Lead With No Desires

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Ci's eyes twitched.

"Can't you tell? You're clearly in love with me."

Lu Gan held his forehead in a helpless manner. Adults and children would see things differently. Marriage was mostly a matter of weighing the pros and cons. However, a child would think they were in love.

Lu Suo saw Lu Gan's reaction and was puzzled. He wanted to find out the answer and asked, "Don't you like Auntie Song?"

How could Lu Gan say that he did not like her in front of him? He sighed and replied, "Do you really want me to confess to Auntie Song right now?"

"You could do that."

Song Ci did not mind watching the show.

Lu Gan smiled gently at her.

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

Then, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Just wait."

Lu Suo thought to himself, 'Maybe they want to talk about things like these in private. Everything should be fine.'

Lu Gan took out a small but beautifully wrapped box. His gaze shifted to Song Yujin, who had been silent the whole time.

"This is my gift to you. I hope you like it."

Song Yujin did not expect Lu Gan to prepare a gift for him. For a moment, he did not know what to do. He could only stare at his sister.

...

Song Ci felt a little awkward. Lu Gan had actually prepared a gift for Song Yujin? Regrettably, she did not prepare anything for Lu Suo.

Still, Song Ci did not panic. She lowered her head and said to Song Yujin, "Since it's for you, you should accept it."

After saying that, she turned to look at Lu Suo.

"I've prepared a gift for you too. Unfortunately, it hasn't arrived yet. Can I give it to you tomorrow?"

Lu Suo did not care about the present, but he nodded with a smile and said obediently, "Thank you, Auntie Song."

Since Song Ci had told Song Yujin to take Lu Gan's gift, the little boy reached out his hands. Then, he said politely, "Thank you."

"You don't have to be so polite. In fact, you can call me brother-in-law right now," said Lu Gan gently.

He looked at Song Yujin's calm expression. The latter did not act like a normal child. Usually, children would be ecstatic to receive gifts.

On the other hand, Song Yujin stayed composed from the beginning to the end. He just stood there quietly.

Lu Gan could not understand Song Yujin. He knew that Song Ci had a younger brother and was not worried about it. After all, he had been watching over Lu Suo ever since the boy was born. Dealing with children was easy for him.

However, Song Yujin was encased in a protective shell. It might not be easy to break through him. Clearly, he was a very intelligent child.

Lu Gan looked at Song Ci again.

"Let's go. I'll bring you to my bedroom."

Song Ci had already expected that she would stay in the same bedroom as Lu Gan. Yet, now that the time had come, she could not help but feel a little embarrassed.

Lu Gan noticed that Song Ci's ears were turning red. He said with a wicked sense of humor, "After so many years, I can finally step into the bedroom of my prince charming. Aren't you happy?"

"..."

Now, Song Ci had nothing to be shy about. Lu Gan was really thick-skinned!

"Let's go and see your room," said Song Ci as she hugged Song Yujin. It was just too convenient.

She walked behind Lu Gan and naturally helped him to push the wheelchair.

Lu Suo quietly observed her and a faint light flashed across his eyes.

Soon, they arrived at Song Yujin's room.

"I don't know what style you prefer, so I just went with something simple. Is there anything else that you need?" said Lu Gan to Song Yujin in a light tone.

Song Yujin looked at the bedroom in front of him. It was several times bigger than the one he had before. He said calmly, "No, thank you."

Lu Gan guessed that he must be flustered. So, he did not pry any further. Perhaps Song Yujin would tell Song Ci later.

After dinner, Lu Gan left the dining room so Song Ci and Song Yujin could spend some time together.

Song Ci lowered her head and looked at the little boy.

"Is there anything else that you need in your room?"

Song Yujin shook his head.

Song Ci felt that he was quite undemanding. As expected of the male lead.

"Alright. I'll buy you anything you want in the future."

Song Yujin nodded. Then, he finally expressed his concerns to Song Ci.

"There are no bus stops here. How am I supposed to go to school?"

Song Ci was silent for a moment.

"I'll discuss it with your brother-in-law. Maybe he'll loan us his chauffeur."

Song Yujin did not like to trouble others, but he had no choice and could only nod.

Song Ci accompanied him to unpack. She teased, "Your clothes are folded so neatly. Impressive!"

Song Yujin felt a little proud.

"Mom taught me."

"Your mom is amazing..."

Song Ci laughed.

Song Yujin smiled as he looked at her.

Chapter 30: Are You Satisfied With What You've Seen

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Ci suddenly remembered something and immediately changed her wording.

"Our mom is amazing..."

Song Ci and her mother looked very similar. Song Yujin would often be reminded of Kong Chuyun whenever he saw Song Ci's face. It was just that "Song Ci" had never liked him very much.

However, these few days, she has inexplicably changed a lot. She was not like her past self, but more like their mother.

Song Ci was a little embarrassed because of her mistake earlier. She switched topics and said, "Go and do your homework. I'll go discuss the transportation issue."

"Okay."

Song Yujin glanced at her before turning around. He did not say anything, but there was an incomprehensible look in his eyes.

When Song Ci went to look for Lu Gan, he was already in his bedroom. His head was lowered as if he was texting someone. Upon seeing Song Ci approach him, he put away his phone and asked, "How is it? Have Yujin gotten used to the environment?"

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

Song Ci nodded.

"He had already unpacked and is currently doing his homework."

Lu Gan finally felt at ease.

"Is there anything else that needs to be added to his room?"

"No, he said that he's quite satisfied. If he needs anything in the future, I'll buy them for him."

...

"Alright," said Lu Gan helplessly.

Song Ci looked at the man and smiled. She consoled him, "Yujin is very mature. He may not look easy to talk to, but he's very well-mannered. So don't worry. He's not being polite, but he genuinely feels that everything is enough."

Lu Gan understood. Still, he could not help but sigh in his heart.

Song Ci walked towards her luggage.

"Alright, let's stop talking about that child for now. Which wardrobe can I use? I'm going to unpack my things."

Lu Gan pushed his wheelchair to the wardrobe on the right.

"This row is all yours."

"?"

Why was the wardrobe so large?

"Is it not enough?"

Lu Gan noticed that Song Ci was not speaking. He thought for a while before saying, "The guest room next door can be converted into a wardrobe for you."

Song Ci looked at her twenty-four-inch suitcase. Then, she looked at the wardrobe in front of her again. She was really too shabby! Her outfits were really limited.

"It seems that I need to buy some clothes for you."

Lu Gan said lazily while leaning against his wheelchair.

Anyway, Song Ci quietly closed the wardrobe and told Lu Gan about Song Yujin's concern.

She suddenly realized that she did not have a driver's license. Maybe she should take the test. After all, she really needed it.

When Lu Gan heard this, he said, "Since I've requested the both of you to move here, I will definitely help you solve these problems. The driver will send him to school."

Song Ci nodded.

When Lu Gan saw that she had finished unpacking, he prepared to take a shower.

Song Ci hurriedly stood up and pushed him into the bathroom.

"What are you doing?"

"Didn't you want to take a shower?"

Lu Gan was puzzled.

"So, you want to take a shower with me?"

Song Ci was stunned for a moment.

"I didn't say that."

"That's what you're thinking! You've been coveting me for so long that you can't wait to shower together, right?"

Song Ci immediately denied it.

"I'm in a platonic and spiritual relationship with you!"

Lu Gan chuckled.

"Spiritual relationship? What about seven times in one night?"

Song Ci took a deep breath.

"I just wanted to help you get in."

She gazed at Lu Gan and added, "Perhaps you're the one who can't wait to spend the night together. Maybe you're also secretly in love with me. Is this a legendary two-way crush?"

Lu Gan felt that Song Ci really had a way with her words!

He only wanted to sleep peacefully. Otherwise, he would not urge her to move in so quickly.

"I'm doing this for the sake of the children. If we sleep in separate rooms, they'll think that something is wrong between us."

Song Ci chuckled.

"Everything is for the sake of the children. I understand. You definitely don't have a crush on me. I understand completely. Don't worry."

She was clearly being sarcastic!

Lu Gan was helpless.

"Let go of me. I'll go in and shower by myself."

Song Ci advised, "We're about to get married. It's normal for me to help you."

"I can do it myself."

"With my help, you'll save more time and effort."

"Can't you mind your own business?"

"You're my top priority!"

Lu Gan gave up.

"Tell me the truth. You just want to confirm whether my p*nis is working or not, right?"

Song Ci smiled.

"Do I look like that kind of person? Well, since you've already said it out loud, I can only carry out your request."

"?"

The bathroom was filled with mist.

Lu Gan sat in the bathtub.

The corners of his lips curled up. Slowly, he revealed a devilish smile.

"Are you satisfied with what you've seen?"

Chapter 31: Serious Discrepancy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Ci sat on the bed while thinking about the scene in her mind. She could not help but laugh.

Over the past few days, she had gotten used to bickering with Lu Gan. Hence, she began teasing him.

Who knew Lu Gan would start to tease her every day as well?

Song Ci scanned Lu Gan's bedroom. Her gaze landed on the bathroom door. She listened quietly and only left after seeing no movements inside.

Then, Song Ci went down the stairs and casually walked around. She happened to see Lu Suo who was lying on his stomach. His little head was sticking out. Was he looking at her?

Song Ci's heart felt a little conflicted. Lu Suo knew that he had been discovered. He said in a naive tone, "Auntie Song, are you looking at me?"

Song Ci replied with a "yes" and stared at him curiously.

"It's just the two of us. Who else can I look at? Besides, you're so good-looking. I can't help but pay attention to you."

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

Lu Suo gave her a shy smile.

Song Ci thought that he was too cute!

How could he be the crazy villain?

"You should go and rest early. I'm going to see your little uncle."

Lu Suo nodded sweetly.

...

Song Ci suddenly became bold. She raised her hand and patted Lu Suo's head. His hair was really soft.

"So obedient."

Lu Suo was truly adorable and innocent.

Shortly after, Song Ci reluctantly withdrew her hand and said goodbye to Lu Suo.

Once she left, the smile on Lu Suo's face disappeared. He thought about Song Ci's expression just now.

'She definitely likes me, right?'

It appeared that Song Ci liked both his father and him. Not bad. His efforts today were not in vain.

Song Ci went to Song Yujin's room. The latter was reading a book. He was not surprised to see her.

"I've talked to your brother-in-law. From now on, his driver will send you to school."

She added, "Of course, I will continue to pick you up."

Song Yujin calmly replied, "Okay. Thank you."

Song Ci raised her hand and pinched his face.

"Don't be so polite with me!"

"..."

Song Ci looked at the little boy's eyes. She did not know whether to laugh or cry. In the end, she pinched his face again.

After that, she leaned closer to Song Yujin and whispered, "Do you know why your brother-in-law's legs are injured?"

Song Yujin shook his head.

Song Ci sighed softly and said, "He had an accident more than a month ago. Since his legs got wounded, he could not walk anymore."

Song Yujin looked at her with a surprised expression and asked, "Forever?"

"I don't know. Perhaps not. Medicine is so advanced nowadays. Furthermore, he's rich."

Song Ci said this because she felt that Lu Gan was in a rather good condition. If he was really permanently crippled, he would not be able to accept the fact so quickly, right? Looking at him now, it seemed like he had only sprained his ankle.

Hence, Song Ci wanted to believe that he could stand up again! Of course, this was only her assumption. Based on the original plot, Lu Gan died of illness less than a year after his car accident.

"Lu Suo's parents were also involved in that accident. Unfortunately, they were not as lucky as your brother-in-law. They had left this world."

Song Yujin did not expect to hear such a tragedy. He could not help but say, "Then Lu Suo..."

"He's fine. Your brother-in-law protected him. Still, his parents are gone and his uncle was injured. If you're willing, try talking and playing with him."

After Song Ci said that, she added, "Of course, you don't have to force yourself. I know that you have your own preferences. I'm just telling you the current situation. Feel free to do what you want."

Song Yujin did not say anything. After a long while, he seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly looked at Song Ci with a playful expression and said, "What did you tell me before? Fierce? Is this what you mean by fierce? Him?"

"..."

Song Ci had no idea Lu Suo would be so cute when he was young. In the book, he was undoubtedly a ruthless villain.

In a helpless tone, Song Ci replied, "That was just a rumor that I've heard. It might or might not be true. Guess we'll have to see for ourselves, don't we?"

"..."

Chapter 32: The Pain of Not Reading for a Day

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Yujin did not expect Song Ci to use this matter as a teaching opportunity. He silently lowered his head and continued reading his book.

Song Ci smiled and patted his head.

"Good boy. By the way, where's the present your brother-in-law gave you? Can I take a look?"

Song Yujin went to open a drawer and handed the small box to Song Ci.

Song Ci opened it and found a small jade pendant shaped like a pepper. The texture was superb. It was also clear and bright. Clearly, it was worth a lot.

She asked, "It's beautiful. Do you like it?"

Song Yujin had no attachments to this jade pendant, nor did he have any desire for materialistic things. Still, he was grateful for Lu Gan's kindness. He nodded and replied, "I do."

"That's great."

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

Song Ci returned the jade pendant to him.

Song Yujin took the pendant and placed it back into the box. Then, he stored it in the drawer again. He had no intention of wearing it.

"You're not going to wear it?" asked Song Ci.

Song Yujin thought to himself for a moment before looking at his sister.

"Do I have to wear it?"

...

"Not really... It's fine if you don't want to wear it."

Song Yujin looked at the small box in front of him. In the end, he closed the drawer. He was afraid of losing it. This was his first gift from Lu Gan. It was also the first time he had received such a warm welcome after moving into a new place. So, he wanted to take good care of it.

Song Ci did not interfere with his decision. Once they had finished talking, she went back to her room.

When Lu Gan came out of the shower, he saw his fiancée reading "The Self-cultivation Of An Actor" with great interest.

"You're done? It's my turn."

Song Ci looked at Lu Gan from the corner of her eyes.

"Okay," replied Lu Gan calmly.

Song Ci got up and went to take a shower.

Lu Gan returned to the bed and began thinking, 'How do I get her to perform for me?'

He could not say that he wanted to see her acting skills again, right? After pondering for a long time, Lu Gan finally decided to hand Song Ci a book after she came out.

"What?"

Song Ci rubbed her hair with a towel. Then, she teased, "Are you asking me to tell you a bedtime story?"

Lu Gan said in a mild tone, "I just want you to perform one of the parts."

Song Ci did not understand. Why did he like to watch her act so much?

Lu Gan felt a little guilty.

"Why? Is there a problem?"

"Are you..."

Song Ci walked closer to the man.

Lu Gan's back immediately straightened up.

"My fan?"

"?"

"Why else would you ask me to perform for you every day? One might think that you're unable to sleep without watching my performance."

"..."

"I'm your future boss. Isn't it normal for me to keep track of your performance?"

"Is it normal?"

Song Ci looked doubtful.

"You've watched it four times, right? Why do you still need to keep checking?"

Lu Gan's expression did not change.

"It's because I'm a meticulous person."

Song Ci said helplessly, "Then you're too meticulous. If you check your employees randomly every day, they will be inclined to quit."

Lu Gan chuckled.

"I'm not doing random check-ups on others. Even if you leave your job, you still have to be tested by me."

Song Ci replied earnestly, "Is it too late for me to pack my luggage and leave now?"

Lu Gan smiled and shook his head. He pinched her face and said, "I'm sorry. It's too late, darling."

He looked at Song Ci's angry face and picked up the towel that was covering her hair. Then, he happily wiped her damp hair.

"Why don't you use a hairdryer?"

"I don't like it."

After Song Ci said that, she sat on the bed and let Lu Gan dry her hair.

Lu Gan glanced at her and commented, "You're just lazy. Aren't you an actress? Shouldn't you keep up your appearances?"

"My hair is thick. It's tiring to blowdry it."

Song Ci retorted.

Once Lu Gan was almost done drying her hair, Song Ci opened the book that he had handed her earlier. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Which part did you want me to act out?"

Lu Gan put away the towel and touched her hair. Seeing that it was not as wet as before, he lowered his head and read the book.

He casually pointed to a section and said, "This part. I watched this scene a few days ago, but I felt like the actress was not very good. Why don't you give it a try? I want to see if your acting skills are better than hers."

"Okay."

Song Ci was helpless.

Lu Gan watched as she sat beside him and read the book seriously. Her fair skin was like top-quality suet jade. Since she had just taken a shower, her face was a little red. She looked really pure and attractive. Her red lips were bright and alluring and her pajamas exposed half of her collarbone. Subconsciously, he wanted to see the contents inside...

However, Lu Gan hurriedly averted his gaze. He leaned against the headboard of the bed and gazed at the night sky outside the window...

Chapter 33: Man's Instinct

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Song Ci finished reading, she walked to the side and stood still.

Lu Gan quickly turned his head. His heart was filled with anticipation.

This time, he was not disappointed. Halfway through Song Ci's performance, he felt the sensation of sleepiness again.

Lu Gan closed his eyes in satisfaction. He allowed himself to fall asleep in front of Song Ci.

After the performance, Song Ci heaved a sigh of relief and said, "This part is quite difficult. There are many different layers to it. You've picked an interesting..."

As Song Ci was talking, she noticed that Lu Gan was sitting on the bed with his head lowered. He did not utter a single word.

"?"

Did he fall asleep again? Just how impatient was he?!

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

Song Ci walked over carefully.

"Senior?"

"..."

"Hubby?"

"..."

...

Song Ci was so angry that she looked like a fire-breathing dragon! He had really fallen asleep again!

She got closer and lowered her head to look at Lu Gan's face. His eyelids were lowered and he was breathing steadily.

The man was sleeping soundly!

Song Ci could not understand what was going on! How did she manage to hypnotize him every time?

This was their first night together and Lu Gan was sleeping like this?

He even said that she needed to keep up with her appearances. What about him? At the moment, he was not acting like a man.

Song Ci snorted and put down the book on a table. Then, she tucked Lu Gan's shoulder under the blanket.

Lu Gan continued to sleep.

Song Ci turned off the lights and closed her eyes in anger.

Outside the door, Lu Suo was leaning against the wall. He had been eavesdropping.

'Were they asleep? There was no light shining through the door.'

Lu Suo thought about what he had overheard. His father must have liked Song Ci very much and vice versa. Shortly after, he tiptoed back to his room in satisfaction.

When Lu Gan woke up the next morning, he felt refreshed and full of energy. It was completely different from his usual drug-induced sleep. He did not have a headache, nor did he have nightmares. His sleep was very peaceful.

Lu Gan was overjoyed. It was a rare feeling. He thought of Song Ci, who made this all possible.

After looking at Song Ci, he tried to move. However, his waist was being tightly hugged.

Lu Gan moved his upper body, but Song Ci continued clinging to him. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.

After all, he was a man. His s*xual desires were stronger in the early mornings.

Anyway, he composed himself and carefully reached out to remove Song Ci's hand from his waist. Unexpectedly, Song Ci grabbed onto him even tighter. She said unhappily, "Don't move."

Her voice was low with a hint of sleepiness. She acted coyly without even realizing it.

Lu Gan did not move anymore. He accepted his fate of becoming her human-shaped pillow.

She was his special sleeping drug and he was her human-shaped pillow. The exchange was fair and reasonable.

After some time, Song Ci finally let go and Lu Gan seized the chance to move.

He turned around and looked at the person on his bed.

Suddenly, Song Ci turned over and hugged her human-shaped pillow again.

Lu Gan dared not move.

Song Ci moved forward and snuggled into Lu Gan's arms. She leaned against his chest in satisfaction and slept soundly.

Lu Gan could not help but laugh. The smile on his face grew deeper and deeper.

As he watched, his gaze unconsciously shifted downwards. It fell on her fair face and then on her bright lips. One of the buttons on her pajamas came undone due to her random movements. Her breasts were revealed…

Lu Gan's heart instantly trembled. His surroundings were very quiet. He could vaguely hear Song Ci's shallow breathing.

Lu Gan slowly raised his hand as if he was possessed. He gently caressed the side of Song Ci's face.

Her skin was very soft and delicate. It was like an egg that had been peeled.

Lu Gan stared at her without blinking.

The room was silent. His heart gradually thumped louder and louder.

Things almost went out of control.

Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open. Lu Suo's crisp voice could be heard.

"Dad, this morning..."

Chapter 34: I'm Really Smart

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Before Lu Suo could finish his sentence, he noticed that Lu Gan's right hand was covering Song Ci's face. Was he about to kiss her?

On the other hand, Song Ci was leaning on his father's chest and holding his waist.

Lu Suo quickly covered his eyes.

"I didn't see anything!"

Then, he immediately ran out.

Lu Gan was amused by his reaction. After a while, Lu Suo came back quietly. He reached out to close the door and said considerately, "The two of you should continue sleeping."

His voice was very low. It was as if he was afraid of disturbing Song Ci.

Lu Gan did not know whether to laugh or cry. Where did Lu Suo learn all this? What a little brat!

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

As he shook his head, Song Ci mumbled, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, go back to sleep."

Lu Gan coaxed.

Song Ci unconsciously rubbed her body against Lu Gan's chest and hugged him tightly.

"No, it's time to get up."

...

Lu Gan nodded.

"Shouldn't you leave your husband's embrace first?"

Song Ci looked up at him in a daze. Then, she lowered her head.

Finally, she realized what was happening and hurriedly sat up.

Lu Gan moved closer and whispered in her ear, "Is your hubby's waist nice to hug? You've been hugging it all night."

"..."

He added, "Even in the morning."

Song Ci covered her face with her hand.

"Shut up!"

"Why are you acting shy?"

Lu Gan teased her on purpose.

"I'm not! It's you who's shy! Your whole family is shy!"

Song Ci flew into a rage due to embarrassment.

Lu Gan nodded calmly.

"My dear wife, that includes you as well, right?"

Song Ci's face turned red.

"We're not married yet!"

"Soon. We'll get our marriage certificate on Monday."

"So soon?!"

"Of course. Aren't you happy? At last, you'll be able to marry the person you've been secretly in love with for so long."

Song Ci decided to change the topic.

"Why did you fall asleep again yesterday? You said that you wanted to watch my performance!"

"Your acting skills still have room for improvement. So, you have to continue to work hard."

Song Ci snorted.

Lu Gan could only continue to coax her.

"Seriously, your acting skills are pretty good. I just have high standards. As long as you're not at your best, the same occurrence would happen."

Song Ci raised her eyebrows.

"Do you think I'll believe you?"

Lu Gan said calmly, "Either that or you actually have to believe that your acting skills are terrible..."

"..."

"See, that's why you have to trust me. It's my problem, not yours."

"Really?"

Song Ci was very doubtful.

Lu Gan nodded.

"Absolutely."

"Should I continue being an actress?"

Lu Gan felt that she was being too modest.

"You'll definitely win an award in the future. The first 'best actress' in Sunlight Media will undeniably be you."

Upon hearing that, Song Ci became happy.

"As long as I can get an award before I retire, it'll be enough."

"You're being too modest. I think you can get quite a few awards before you retire."

Song Ci chuckled and stood up.

"I'm going to wash my face."

"Alright."

Lu Gan watched as Song Ci entered the bathroom. A smile slowly formed on his face.

After Song Ci washed up, she saw that Lu Gan was already sitting in his wheelchair. She promptly pushed him into the bathroom, squeezed some toothpaste onto his toothbrush, and fetched some water.

For a moment, Lu Gan was speechless.

"Is this how you usually take care of Yujin?"

Song Ci nodded. At the same time, she paused for a moment as if she had just realized something. Lu Gan was not Song Yujin. Only his legs were disabled. He was not completely paralyzed.

Hence, she turned around and shoved the cup of water into Lu Gan's hand.

"Do it yourself."

Lu Gan burst out laughing.

"Why are you laughing?!"

Song Ci puffed her cheeks and walked out. She also closed the door for him.

After Lu Gan had finished washing up, the two of them walked out of the room.

Both children were sitting in the living room.

Lu Gan asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

Lu Suo nodded.

"He did as well."

Lu Gan was surprised.

"The two of you ate together?"

Lu Suo nodded happily. He felt really smart. If Song Yujin did not have breakfast with him, the former would definitely go to find Song Ci. If that happened, he would have disturbed their sleep.

Chapter 35: Doesn't Want to See You at All

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Suo would never allow such a thing to happen. It was rare for his father to get up late. He definitely should sleep a little longer. No one was permitted to disturb him.

That was the reason Lu Suo took the initiative to push open Song Yujin's door.

Song Yujin had a sensitive nature. Furthermore, he was in someone else's territory, so it felt a little awkward to get food for himself. He was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.

He was reading when he heard the sound of a door opening. A small head popped out and asked sweetly, "Little uncle, do you want to eat breakfast together?"

Song Yujin looked at Lu Suo and recalled what Song Ci told him last night. He could not help but feel a little sorry for him. Hence, he did not refuse and nodded.

"Thank you."

Lu Suo immediately smiled and his beautiful eyes curved slightly.

"I'll bring you to the dining room."

Song Yujin stood up and followed him.

As they walked side by side, Lu Suo said in a light tone, "Dad and Auntie Song are still sleeping. We're just going to eat first."

"Okay," replied Song Yujin calmly.

Lu Suo was surprised at his cold and indifferent attitude.

It was strange. Song Yujin and his sister did not seem to be close at all. The former treated him this way as well.

...

Did he not like him? Why?

Lu Suo was aware of his handsome appearance. He was also clean and pure. Anyone would easily like him.

However, Song Yujin was different.

Lu Suo turned to look at Song Yujin and began thinking of something.

Suddenly, Song Yujin reached out and grabbed his arm.

"Be careful."

Only then did Lu Suo realize that he almost missed a step on the stairs.

He quickly retracted his foot and thought to himself, 'What a close call.'

Song Yujin was puzzled.

"Why were you looking at me?"

"Little uncle, you're good-looking."

Lu Suo smiled.

Song Yujin was immune to compliments. After all, Song Ci had been praising him non-stop for the past few days. If flattery could be used as food, Song Yujin felt that he probably would be fed for life.

Hence, he just nodded and said calmly, "Thank you."

Lu Suo felt that he was really strange. Song Yujin maintained the same expression even though he was praised. Besides, he should also praise him in return, right?

How could there only be a "thank you"?

After finishing their breakfast, Lu Suo sat on the sofa and chatted with Song Yujin while silently observing his expression.

No matter how he looked at it, Song Yujin was as calm as water.

Lu Suo felt helpless. He supported his chin with his hand while thinking, 'This is tough.'

This person was totally apathetic.

In kindergarten, Lu Suo dominated the entire place. Countless boys and girls would fight for his attention. This was the first time someone was not paying attention to him. It was simply too abnormal!

"Looks like the two of you are getting along quite well," said Song Ci.

"Yea," replied Song Yujin.

Song Ci patted his head.

"That's good."

Song Yujin and Lu Suo had already eaten, so only Song Ci and Lu Gan were left in the dining room.

As Song Ci was eating, the doorbell suddenly rang.

The maid, Mary, said, "I'll go and take a look."

Lu Gan nodded.

Mary returned shortly after.

"It's Miss Su."

Song Ci instantly raised her head and looked at Lu Gan. Her eyes were lit up. Miss Su? Su Ru Ling? She had chased Lu Gan all the way to his house?

Lu Gan was speechless.

"Do you know who that is?"

"Someone who likes you."

"Then do you know who you are?"

"Your fiancée who is about to get married to you."

"So, is it appropriate for your eyes to be as bright as copper bells in this situation?"

Song Ci lowered her head and looked up again. Now, her eyes were filled with sorrow and resentment.

Lu Gan was satisfied.

"This is more suitable. A woman had chased me all the way to my home. Shouldn't you go out and chastise her?"

"I'm eating."

Song Ci pointed at her bowl of porridge.

"Then I'll wait for you to finish. There's no rush."

Lu Gan was very calm.

Song Ci nodded and happily ate her meal.

Su Ru Ling waited for a long time. When the door was still not opened, she angrily rang the doorbell again.

After a short while, Mary came out again.

"The young master asked you to wait."

"How long am I supposed to wait?"

Su Ru Ling said angrily.

"He's still eating."

Su Ru Ling laughed out of anger.

"Should I have made an appointment?"

"Of course not."

Those words made Su Ru Ling feel better.

"It's good that he knows. You..."

Mary interrupted, "It's because he doesn't want to see you at all."

"?"

Chapter 36: It Was a Piece of Cake

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Ru Ling could barely maintain her smile.

"Then why did he make me wait?"

Mary smiled.

"Young master plans to let Miss Song handle you. You know her, right? She's his beautiful fiancée."

Su Ru Ling's expression was ferocious. Despite that, Mary did not care and turned around to leave.

Song Ci slowly savored Mary's breakfast and praised, "It's really delicious."

"I'm glad you liked it. I'll make different flavors tomorrow."

Mary replied with a smile.

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

"Sure."

Song Ci put down the spoon and stood up.

"I'm full. Let's go out and take a look."

Lu Gan said in a melodious tone, "Be careful. Don't be too mean."

Song Ci looked at him.

...

"You're just going to sit here?"

Lu Gan thought to himself and realized that it was indeed inappropriate. He raised his hands and clapped.

"Good luck."

"That's it?"

"Do you need more encouragement?"

"What do you have in mind?"

Song Ci was curious.

Lu Gan beckoned with his hand and Song Ci hurried over to take a look. Lu Gan raised his hand to press down her neck. Then, he gently kissed her. Song Ci instantly stood up straight. She was shocked beyond belief.

Her expression made Lu Gan happy.

"You should be able to handle it easily now, right?"

"..."

"Go."

Lu Gan raised his chin and gestured to the door.

Song Ci stared at him before turning around stiffly. After that, she walked out of the door.

It was a sunny day. Song Ci's face felt hot, especially at the spot where Lu Gan had kissed her earlier. She touched her face. Why would he suddenly do that? He could not possibly like her, right? However, if he did not like her, why did he kiss her?

Song Ci pressed her face and walked towards the iron door.

When Su Ru Ling saw her, she became agitated.

"Why are you here?"

Song Ci was speechless.

"I'm his fiancée. We're about to get married. It's normal for me to be here, right?"

"You still have the guts to say that you're his fiancée? I've already asked around. No one knows about this marriage. You're just?a sl*t who was chased out by the Song family. You lied to me on purpose."

Song Ci unconsciously pressed the spot where Lu Gan had kissed her. She was about to speak when Su Ru Ling interrupted her.

"What? Were you hit by Brother Gan? Or are you actually ashamed? Why do you keep covering your face?"

"About that..."

Song Ci put down her hand, revealing her skin that was slightly red.

"This was caused by Lu Gan. He insisted on kissing me. I was afraid that it would irritate you. Hence, I tried to cover it."

Su Ru Ling's eyes were bloodshot.

"What did you say?!"

Song Ci glanced at her and said disdainfully, "You came at the wrong time. We just woke up, so we don't have time to entertain you. That's why you had to wait."

Su Ru Ling was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

"The two of you have slept together?"

Song Ci put on an innocent expression.

"Shouldn't newlyweds sleep together?"

Su Ru Ling could not help but shout angrily, "Where's Lu Gan? I want to see him!"

"I don't think you can. He's too tired."

Su Ru Ling looked at Song Ci in disbelief.

Suddenly, Song Ci revealed a slightly shy smile.

"He's young and vigorous. Moreover, he's in love with him. Naturally, he can't control himself."

"His legs are injured!"

Su Ru Ling shouted.

"But I'm not! It won't affect me."

Su Ru Ling gritted her teeth. She was helpless.

Song Ci said nicely, "If there's nothing else, I'm heading back in. My waist is still sore. He'll have to give me a massage."

After saying that, Song Ci turned around and walked into the house. At the same time, she rubbed her waist exaggeratedly and muttered, "Seriously, he only knows how to bully me. He's so strong..."

Su Ru Ling felt angry and resentful.

How could Lu Gan do such a thing with Song Ci? She hated him for being so heartless towards her and she felt aggrieved that her love was fruitless.

Su Ru Ling stared at Song Ci with a vicious gaze!

Song Ci entered the house. Lu Gan, who was sitting in the living room, raised his head and asked, "Are you done?"

Song Ci clapped her hands.

"It was a piece of cake."

Lu Gan applauded her.

"Fantastic!"

Chapter 37: I Want a Flowerpot

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"By the way, are you busy tonight?" asked Lu Gan.

"No, why?"

"I'll take you to meet my friend. Around 8 p.m."

Song Ci nodded. Su Ru Lin had just said that no one knew about their upcoming marriage, so this would be a good way to counter the rumors.

"Yujin and I are going out for a while. We'll be back before 8 p.m."

Lu Gan nodded.

"I'll get the chauffeur to drive you around."

Song Ci quickly refused. How could she let the chauffeur see her buying Lu Suo's gift? What if he told him?

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

Lu Gan did not want to make things difficult. So, he replied, "Alright."

Song Ci went to look for Song Yujin.

Lu Gan looked at her as she left. This woman seemed to be positive, gentle, and sincere. She was completely different from what was written on the documents.

When Song Yujin heard that Song Ci was going out, he asked doubtfully, "Do I have to go?"

Song Ci pinched his face.

...

"You're my little darling so obviously, you have to go with me."

Song Yujin sighed. He felt helpless.

"Okay."

Song Ci felt that Song Yujin's feelings had changed a little. It was time to develop a loving sibling relationship!

"Yujin is so obedient. You're the best," said Song Ci as she leaned closer to Song Yujin and pressed her hand against his forehead.

Song Yujin leaned back in disgust. His sister was being really mushy.

The weather was nice. Song Ci booked a car using her phone.

Song Yujin followed Song Ci all the way into the mall. When he realized that she wanted to buy a jade pendant, he became somewhat puzzled.

Song Ci picked him up. Then, she placed him on the chair in front of the counter. She asked, "Which one do you like?"

Song Yujin answered, "Brother-in-law already gave me one."

"I'll buy you another one."

Song Yujin did not really want it.

"I already have one."

Song Ci looked at the determination in his eyes.

"I just want to give you a gift. Should we look for something else?"

Song Yujin said in a low voice, "There's no need."

"Why not? Yujin, you're so biased. You'll take other people's gifts but not mine. I'm so sad."

Song Ci pretended to be wronged.

Song Yujin wanted to say something, but he did not know how to explain it clearly. So, he just gave up.

Song Ci also wanted to choose a suitable pendant for Lu Suo.

Song Yujin looked over the pendants one by one. Suddenly, he pointed at an agate bracelet with a small lock and said, "Give that to Lu Suo!"

Song Ci patted his head.

"Choose something for yourself as well. One for you and one for Lu Suo."

In reality, Song Yujin only wanted a flowerpot that could let dandelions settle down. He looked up at Song Ci. "I don't want these. Can I get something else?"

"What do you want?"

Song Ci was curious. Song Yujin actually had something that he wanted. It was almost too strange.

Song Yujin said in a serious tone, "I want a small flowerpot."

Song Ci was astonished.

"You want to grow flowers?"

Song Yujin nodded.

Song Ci did not expect him to like gardening. However, the fact that he was willing to tell her his preferences was already a pleasant surprise.

She smiled and replied to Song Yujin, "I'll bring you to a flower shop. We can buy whatever you like."

Song Yujin nodded.

"Thank you."

Song Ci patted Song Yujin's head and said gently, "You're welcome. By the way, gifts aren't limited to just one. Since I like you, I'm willing to give you many gifts. You don't have to return the favor. Just get whatever you want."

Song Yujin did not expect things to turn out like this. He blinked silently.

Song Ci gave him a hug. Then, she carefully looked at the selection of agate bracelets before pointing to one that was in the shape of a tiger.

"What do you think? Tigers are kings of all beasts. They're very powerful. When you grow up, you become as powerful as a tiger."

Song Yujin looked at the little tiger. The word "King" was indeed carved on it. He turned to look at his sister. Did she really hope for him to be as powerful as a tiger when he grew up?

He used to think that he knew Song Ci well but now, it was the complete opposite. Perhaps he was still young. When he grew up, he would definitely understand her.

The little boy nodded and let out a soft "Mmhmm".

In fact, he hoped for the same. Song Yujin wanted to become a tiger that could protect himself and live on without relying on others.

Once he agreed, Song Ci swiped her card without hesitation.

"What kind of flowers do you want?"

Song Ci asked Song Yujin. The latter looked at the dazzling selection and shook his head.

"I don't know."

His gaze swept through the flowerpots.

Finally, he walked to a pot of cactus.

Song Ci followed him.

"Is this what you wanted?"

Song Yujin reached out and touched the cactus. Its thorns were sharp like needles.

He looked at the small cactus in front of him, then at the white flowerpot in which it was planted.

"Is this okay?"

Chapter 38: It Was Smarter Than a Cactus

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Of course, Song Ci did not have any objections.

"As long as you like it. Is there anything else you want to buy? We can get a few more pots."

Song Yujin shook his head. Originally, he only wanted a flower pot but now, he got an additional small cactus. It was enough for him.

Song Ci looked at the small cactus in Song Yujin's hand. It was green and the small thorns were not as hard. She gently pressed it, but no sharp pain could be felt. The cactus was like Song Yujin who had yet to grow up.

"Why don't we buy a pot for Lu Suo too? The two of you can raise plants together, just like growing up side by side," said Song Ci.

Song Yujin thought for a moment and nodded. He chose a relatively small and cute cactus. Then, he looked at Song Ci.

Song Ci patted Song Yujin's head and smiled.

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

"It's very cute. Yujin, you have good taste."

Upon hearing that, Song Yujin smiled. At this moment, he did feel lonely. Although he was used to being alone, he did not reject being Lu Suo's companion.

After all, he was living under the same roof as someone of similar age. The other party was obedient and cute. They should be able to get along well. He did not need Lu Suo to like him. The latter only needed to not hate him.

Song Yujin's demands were very low, be it material or emotional. He did not need others to like him, just like how he would not easily be fond of others.

Song Ci paid the bill without hesitation. Song Yujin picked up the flowerpots and they went home.

On the way, Song Ci suddenly thought of something. She lowered her head to ask Song Yujin, "Do you think I treat Lu Suo well?"

...

Song Yujin looked up at her. He did not understand why she would ask such a question.

Song Ci's voice was gentle. There was also a hint of caution in her tone.

"In two days, I will be married to Lu Suo's father. After that, I will be considered his mother. Regardless, I will always be your sister. You're my favorite person. Understand?"

Song Yujin's eyes were clearly filled with doubt. How could he be Song Ci's favorite person?

Song Ci looked at the confused little boy. She could guess what he was thinking and said awkwardly, "I didn't treat you very well before. Just pretend that version of me is dead. I'm a new person. You're my only blood relative and vice versa. Naturally, you'll be my favorite person."

Song Yujin did not say anything. He looked at the small cactus in his hand. After a long time, he let out a low "Mmhmm" as if it was a form of acknowledgment.

Song Ci kept quiet as well. She only hoped that Song Yujin would not overthink.

Needless to say, Song Yujin did not think too much about it because he did not care about these things at all.

Song Ci sighed. She could not help but reach out to hug him. When she was reading the book, she felt no attachment to the characters. However, when she came into contact with them, she realized they were no different living people. What happened to Song Yujin really broke her heart. She wanted Song Yujin to regain his trust in people again. Of course, this included her.

Song Yujin got used to Song Ci's touch. However, he was still distrustful of her. He knew that her words might just be empty. After all, he had been living with "Song Ci"' all this time. It was not just a day or two, but almost half a year. Understandably, he did not believe what she said.

When the two of them reached home, Song Ci kept the agate bracelet in Lu Gan's bedroom. She would give it to Lu Suo later.

Song Yujin followed Song Ci's instructions and handed the cactus to Lu Suo.

Lu Suo blinked. His amber eyes were undoubtedly beautiful and innocent. He opened his mouth slightly and pointed at himself.

"For me?"

Song Yujin nodded.

"My sister bought it."

Lu Suo took it and thanked him.

"You're welcome."

After Song Yujin said that, he turned around and left without any hesitation.

Lu Suo put the cactus by a window somewhat disdainfully. He was puzzled. Who would like such a stupid plant?

Its thorns were clearly on display. Was it afraid that no one knew about its weapon? Who would dare to approach it unguarded?

Lu Suo shook his head. He liked roses. In his opinion, roses were smart. They were gorgeous and their sharp thorns were hidden. People could only look from afar. If they reached out their hands, they would be pierced by the hidden thorns.

It was smarter than a cactus.

Chapter 39: Hubby, Have a Drink Too

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

During the evening, Song Ci and Lu Gan began getting ready for a party. Song Ci was worried that Lu Suo would turn into a devil the moment she and Lu Gan left. So, she reminded Song Yujin, "If anything happens, call me immediately. Make sure you're not bullied."

Song Yujin was speechless for a moment. Lu Suo? How could he bully him? The little boy is soft and cute.

He looked at Song Ci and said, "Why aren't you worried that I'll bully him?"

"You won't. You're so obedient!"

Song Ci trusted him very much.

"He's also very obedient," said Song Yujin in a serious tone.

Song Ci had no way to explain further. She could only advise him, "Anyway, just make sure nothing happens to you."

Song Yujin watched as Song Ci left. Then, he continued reading. He felt that she was making a fuss over nothing. Women were really troublesome.

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

The two adults went out. At eight o'clock, the two of them arrived at their destination. Song Ci pushed Lu Gan into the hotel and followed his instructions to the reserved room.

Lu Gan's friends, Mi Qilu and Huang Hao had arrived early. They were eating some fruit as they talked about Lu Gan's fiancée.

"He suddenly said that he has a fiancée. Where did she come from?"

"Who knows?" Huang Hao poured a cup of tea and continued calmly, "So, he's planning to get married..."

Mi Qilu was confused.

...

"He actually wants to get married now?"

"Well, he already has a fiancée. Isn't it clear that he's ready?"

Huang Hao took a sip of his tea.

Mi Qilu lit a cigarette.

"Do you think he's going to complain to us today?"

"Then he wouldn't have brought his fiancée along! With your IQ, I hope that your parents give birth to another child and groom a new heir!"

After saying that, Huang Hao glanced at Mi Qilu.

"Put out the cigarette. Lu Gan's fiancée is still young. This is not appropriate."

Mi Qilu rolled his eyes, but he still complied.

At this moment, Song Ci entered and saw what happened. She wondered if there was something wrong with his eyes.

Just as she was thinking, Mi Qilu stood up and gave her an awkward but polite smile.

Song Ci smiled back.

Lu Gan briefly introduced them to each other.

"Hello," said Huang Hao. He also stood up and greeted them politely.

"Nice to meet you."

Song Ci said with a smile.

As they were talking, the door opened. A man in a white suit walked in.

Song Ci looked in the direction of the door. The person who had just shown up was stunned for a moment after seeing her. Then, he frowned. His expressions were not obvious, but Song Ci noticed them.

"Why are you late?"

Mi Qilu grumbled.

"There was a bit of traffic on the road."

Su Youcheng sat down beside Huang Hao. He raised his eyes and casually glanced at Song Ci. His small movements confused her. Had they met before? The book did not mention that "Song Ci" was acquainted with Lu Gan's friend. Song Ci felt even more puzzled when Su Youcheng acted as if he did not know her.

Lu Gan introduced her to him.

"This is Song Ci. She's my fiancée."

Su Youcheng did not look at Song Ci. Instead, he asked Lu Gan, "You're getting married?"

Lu Gan nodded.

"Of course."

Su Youcheng pursed his lips. Since everyone was present, he did not want to make a scene and simply said, "Congratulations."

Just as he finished speaking, the door opened again. Su Ru Ling walked in and her heels made loud noises. Everyone was astonished by how angry she looked.

Song Ci's eyelids twitched. She was really stalking Lu Gan!

The moment Su Youcheng saw Su Ru Ling, he immediately stood up.

"Can you stop fooling around? What are you trying to do?"

Su Ru Ling did not even look at him. She was focused on Lu Gan.

"Are the two of you really together?"

Lu Gan had an indifferent expression on his face.

"Why else would I treat your brother to a meal today?"

Upon hearing that, Su Ru Ling's eyes instantly turned red.

"What's so great about her? I've liked you for so many years. How could you treat me like this! Do you even have a heart?"

Song Ci silently picked up the glass of orange juice on the table. It was really delicious.

Lu Gan looked at her and smiled.

"Is it good?"

Song Ci's entire body trembled. She hurriedly placed the glass near Lu Gan's mouth.

"You should drink some too."

After saying that, she deliberately added, "Hubby...

Chapter 40: I'm Touched. What About You?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Gan said calmly, "This woman said that she has liked me for many years."

Song Ci immediately showed her competitive side.

"I've liked you for many years too."

Lu Gan looked at Su Ru Ling.

"Did you hear that? She has liked me for many years too. So, what's the difference?"

"I've liked you for five years!"

Su Ru Ling felt that her love was incomparable.

Song Ci would not lose so easily! She added, "I've liked you for fifteen years! I fell in love with you on the first day of school."

Follow current novels on Freewebn(ov) .

"That's quite impressive."

Lu Gan looked at Song Ci. He did not expect her to be so good at making things up.

Song Ci's expression was calm as she said, "It's because you're so remarkable. I was destined to fall in love with you."

Su Ru Ling did not believe this. She glared at Song Ci and said, "The first day of school? Then you went to the same school as Brother Gan? I've never heard of you!"

Song Ci ignored her. She looked longingly at Lu Gan and began to express her feelings.

...

"The details don't matter. I just know that all of my memories are of you."

Lu Gan turned to look at Su Ru Ling.

"I'm touched. What about you?"

Su Ru Ling was so angry that she wanted to scratch Song Ci to death!

"If you like him so much, why didn't you confess before?"

Song Ci had a sad look on her face.

"I'm just a lowly person. How can I be worthy of him?"

"Then why did you appear now?"

Su Ru Ling's eyes were filled with hatred.

"Because I want to take care of him."

Song Ci did not even look at Su Ru Ling. Instead, she focused on Lu Gan affectionately.

Lu Gan nodded slightly and looked at Su Ru Ling again. "Such deep affection. I'm touched again. What about you?"

Su Ru Ling was gritting her teeth!

"I can take care of you too!"

Song Ci said coldly, "You can't! You're not the one who had a crush on him for fifteen years. You're not the one who thought about him constantly. You're not the one who cried bitterly for him. You're not the one who had sleepless nights because of him. You're not the one who tried to forget about him year after year but failed. That's me! How can you compete with me?"

Lu Gan was totally shocked. He looked at Su Ru Ling for the third time.

"I'm so touched! What about you?"

Su Ru Ling was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood!

The remaining three people were almost petrified.

"F*ck!"

Mi Qilu could no longer hold it in. He pointed at Song Ci and said to Su Ru Ling, "This is true love. You're just harassing them. Your intentions are impure and your love isn't deep. You should just leave."

Su Ru Ling wanted to say something else, but Su Youcheng quickly got up and sent her away.

Song Ci finally heaved a sigh of relief after Su Ru Ling had left. She had really given her a headache.

After Su Youcheng dealt with Su Ru Ling, he walked back in.

"I'm sorry. I didn't expect her to follow me."

Song Ci was curious.

"Is she your sister?"

"She's from my uncle's family. We do not have the same parents."

Su Youcheng emphasized. She was too much of an embarrassment.

Of course, Song Ci was just asking casually. She did not really care.

At the same time, Su Youcheng was confused. What happened between her and Di Zhongyang? Su Youcheng could not figure it out, so he decided to talk to Lu Gan alone later.

Song Ci drank some orange juice to moisten her throat. Sensing Lu Gan's gaze, she poured another glass. However, just as she finished pouring, Mi Qilu picked up a glass and said, "Sister-in-law, I want some too."

Lu Gan rolled his eyes at him.

"Pour it yourself."

Mi Qilu was displeased.

"Sister-in-law hasn't said anything yet."

Lu Gan raised his eyebrows.

"Do you have any objections?"

Mi Qilu dared not challenge him. He looked at Song Ci with great interest.

"Sister-in-law, we were from the same school?"

Song Ci was silent. Logically speaking, a person like the original Song Ci should not be able to attend the same school as Lu Gan. The book only mentioned they were classmates. She did not know the exact details!

All of a sudden, the door was pushed open again. Everyone was on edge. What now?

"I thought I was mistaken. Who knew that it was really you. Song Ci, you're pretty amazing. I was wondering why you stopped pestering me recently. So, you've hooked up with Young Master Lu?"

In an instant, everyone's eyes were on Song Ci. She lowered her head and frowned.

"I can explain," said Song Ci in a low voice. Today was a really bad day.

Lu Gan nodded and patted Song Ci's hand. He was trying to reassure her. Then, he raised his head to look at the uninvited guest who had suddenly barged in.

Di Zhongyang walked closer to Lu Gan with a mocking gaze. He extended his hand and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Di Zhongyang."

Lu Gan did not even raise his eyelids.

"Retract your skinny hand. It's an eyesore."
