The rural man was holding on to her foot so intimately in front of everyone.

Men considered a woman’s feet as an intimate part; it was believed to be a “third sexual organ.”

Gong Zhan felt that Gu Zi and the man were shameless!

Unable to bear it any longer, Gong Zhan left, leaving Lin Miao behind.

Lin Miao’s face darkened, but she had to follow him. She regretted coming along.

Seeing Gong Zhan leave, Su Shen revealed a hint of victorious delight in his eyes. At that moment, he seemed like a dazed teenager, prompting a smile from Gu Zi.

At that moment, Uncle Li brought some medicated oil over and asked Su Shen to apply it. Su Shen quickly covered Gu Zi’s feet with a piece of cloth.

It wasn’t because of old traditions that he did this, but out of consideration for Gu Zi’s feelings. After all, many women were sensitive about their feet, feeling uncomfortable when too many people stared at them.

Of course, he also had his own reasons; he didn’t want anyone to see her beautiful feet.

“I’ll apply it for you. It might sting a bit, but you’ll be able to walk soon after.” Su Shen held her ankle, deftly applying the medicated oil.

During his military days, he handled minor injuries on his own without the need for a military doctor. So, this wasn’t a big problem for him now. He was just afraid of causing her pain with his rough touch.

“I’m not afraid. It feels nice when you press it.” She closed her eyes, letting him massage her feet, while also recalling Gong Zhan’s expression earlier.

She found it strange. Didn’t Gong Zhan dislike the original host? Why did he just now act jealous and leave his fiancee, Lin Miao, behind?

Lin Miao was even more puzzling. Why did she follow them? It seemed like she

did everything and yet did nothing.

Regardless, those two nuisances had left, and Gu Zi felt much more at ease.

In the end, Gu Zi settled on the white wedding gown for the wedding day; the pink one was beautiful, but she didn’t want it.

For the toast gown, she let Su Shen choose. She wanted to see what kind of clothes a straight man would pick.

She didn’t expect the result to be quite good. He picked a dark red cheongsam for her. The style was fine, but the color could make her look older.

Gu Zi was glad that she had the original host’s figure and appearance, so the dress didn’t make her look old; it even had a bewitching feeling.

After paying a large sum, Su Shen left the wedding dress and other items in the bridal shop for pick-up. He and Gu Zi went to the jewelry shop and bought a pearl necklace and pearl earrings to match the wedding dress.

Finally, Su Shen took her to the motorcycle shop downstairs in the department store. “Is your foot still hurting?”

Gu Zi sat behind him and replied honestly, “It’s still a bit numb.”

“Okay, I’ll carry you.” The man got off the motorcycle, wrapped his arm around her waist, and before she could react, he picked her up.

It was only then that Gu Zi realized that foot pain came with this kind of special treatment!

There was a single guy in the store who felt hurt. He walked towards the two and said to Su Shen, “Brother Shen, you’re also keeping up with the times in love now? Where did you find such a beautiful girlfriend?”

The man was chubby, his face round like a bun, with a very genial expression.

His gaze swept across Gu Zi’s body for a moment before he reluctantly retracted it. He was quite righteous.

Gu Zi felt that this fatty knew his limits, so she smiled at him to express her greeting. He happily nodded back.

Su Shen tossed the helmets from the motorcycle to him.

He caught both helmets, then heard Su Shen sternly correcting him, “This is my wife, Gu Zi. Call her sister-in-law.”

Fatty’s eyes widened. Brother Shen got married again? Jinlong was not a good friend. He did not tell him about such a big thing!

He was depressed about his lack of information but politely greeted her as sister-in-law, then led the two into the store.

When Su Shen mentioned that this person was the owner of the shop, Gu Zi was surprised.

No wonder he looked so well-off!

Fatty examined the helmets from all angles but couldn’t detect any issues with it.

“Gu Zi doesn’t like this color. Change it,” Su Shen said. He didn’t like it anymore.

Gu Zi looked up. She thought that he did not take the story she had told him just now to heart. She did not expect him to be so sincere and want to change the color so quickly.

If the motorcycle were green, would he have changed the entire vehicle?

The plump shopkeeper grinned knowingly. “Ah, Brother Shen is quite thoughtful and meticulous. I’ll get to it right away.”
