Names mentioned in this chapter :

-苏芮 (sù ruì) – Su Rui, our female protagonist

-顾煜城 (gù yù chéng)- Gu Yu Cheng, the male lead

–唐俊(táng jùn)- Tang Jun, Tang Xiao’s elder brother and son of the chairman of Tang Jing Group

With a smile on her face, Su Rui glanced at Gu Yu Cheng and casually uttered with a smile on her face, “Liar.”

She wasn’t blind.

Don’t think she didn’t notice the flash of contempt in Gu Yu Cheng’s eyes when she accidentally bumped into him the first time they met. Although it was well concealed and was soon replaced by dismay and unnaturalness, Su Rui still noticed it.

At that time, Su Rui did not know Gu Yu Cheng well enough. After that, Su Rui has some inkling of the reason.

If his heart really fluttered, why would he have to come to her school at the opening ceremony of the academic year and make that awkward and unfamiliar confession?

Hearing the word Su Rui uttered, Gu Yu Cheng chuckled softly.

Gu Yu Cheng looked at Su Rui with a soft gaze and asked, “In your opinion, what would cause a man’s heart to flutter for the first time when he faces another woman?”

“Love at first sight?” Su Rui answered uncertainly.

In fact, Su Rui did not really believe in the so-called love at first sight.

Love at first sight was not unheard of. However, there were quite a few flash marriages and flash divorces.

“Not entirely so.”

“What is it then?”

“The things he can see with the naked eye and plain lust,” Gu Yu Cheng said bluntly.

The first time a man’s heart would flutter because of a woman is actually very simple: it’s nothing else other than his eyes are attracted by the woman’s appearance and sexual motivation.

The first time they met, this woman had indeed taken his breath away, as she does now.

It had nothing to do with his subjective consciousness or his thinking and judgement at the time.

That’s why he put off the “work-related matters” he agreed to do with Wang Zhou and stayed with Su Rui until the blind date was over.

It was only after that, then he liked her personality.

Gu Yu Cheng was inexperienced at that time, and he had never thought about relationships before.

Therefore, he did not immediately notice this.

Looking back, this woman had indeed made his heart flutter from the first time he saw her.

“I mean it. I’m not lying to you,” Gu Yu Cheng added.

At this moment, Gu Yu Cheng’s expression was so serious that it was hard to make people think he was lying or joking.

It’s just that …

Isn’t this a bit too blunt?!

Even though they were already married and their children could crawl, Su Rui’s face could not help but flush when she heard Gu Yu Cheng’s rich and “meaningful” words.

“I believe you a little.” Su Rui averted her gaze and said with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

……

After some time passed, Gu Yu Cheng noticed that the flush on Su Rui’s face had not only not faded but had instead increased on her face. Gu Yu Cheng’s gaze flickered.

“Rui Rui.”

“Hmm~?” Su Rui was propping her cheeks with her hands. She looked up to look at Gu Yu Cheng. Her eyes were a little moist. She appeared a little dazed and sleepy.

This soft response made his ears tingled.

And being gazed at by Su Rui in such a manner, Gu Yu Cheng’s grip on the cutlery tightened as his heartbeat unconsciously increased.

“Are you alright?” Gu Yu Cheng asked as his Adam apple bopped.

“Yeah.~” Su Rui responded to Gu Yu Cheng’s question softly.

She just felt she was a little light-headed. Then, her consciousness seems to be shrouded in a layer. Everything seems to be fuzzy.

Other than that, there was no bad feeling.

“Are you full?”

“Mmm. I’m full.”

Su Rui nodded, but the fork in her hand unconsciously poked at the small piece of steak that was still left on her dinner plate.

She appeared a bit spaced out.

Her charming eyes are like silk,[1] captivating him and causing butterflies in his chest.

Unfortunately, the “culprit” who started it all seems to be unaware of it.

Su Rui was drunk. Gu Yu Cheng glanced at the empty glass of wine in Su Rui’s hand and gave a very definite verdict.

Gu Yu Cheng’s gaze raked over the waiters standing around them, who were about to attend to the guests. Then, he raised his hand and gestured to them to leave.

After the few waiters left, he was worried that Su Rui would fall if she propped her chin up so limply, Gu Yu Cheng got up and squatted down beside Su Rui.

“Let go and give me the fork.” Gu Yu Cheng said.

Su Rui frowned.

“I haven’t finished eating yet.”

“It’s cold, eat something else instead.”

Finally, Gu Yu Cheng saved the tiny portion of the steak that was poked and “disfigured” from Su Rui’s fork.

Afterwards, Gu Yu Cheng took the still-warm steak and fed Su Rui two spoonfuls.

Only when he heard the woman say I don’t want it anymore.” did Gu Yu Cheng put the spoon back.

“Are you full?” Gu Yu Cheng leaned down and asked in Su Rui’s ear.

“Mm.”

Feeling her waist being held by someone, Su Rui asked leisurely as she looked at the person approaching in front of her, “What are you doing?”

Her arms naturally wrapped around Gu Yu Cheng’s neck. Her right hand felt like it found something fun to play with and lightly pinched Gu Yu Cheng’s ear.

Gu Yu Cheng’s body tensed up.

The next second, he leaned in and kissed Su Rui’s lips.

Gu Yu Cheng said after the kiss, which was like drinking poison in the hope of quenching his thirst, ended, “Let’s go back to our room and rest.” He carried Su Rui as Su Rui gasped in surprise.

Although this place belongs to Tang Jun and the entire place was reserved by Gu Yu Cheng, it was not their home after all.

If it was any other time, Su Rui would have asked Gu Yu Cheng to let her down.

Unfortunately, Su Rui was currently so groggy that she obviously forgot that she was not at home.

After being carried, Su Rui was still lying in Gu Yu Cheng’s arms as she chuckled incessantly.
