Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lu Zhiyuan’s heart skipped a beat as he bit into a piece of lemon, feeling a sour sensation in his heart. “You know how to seduce people. Who taught you that?” he asked.
Gu Ci’s eyes slowly blossomed with a smile as she stretched out her leg and playfully pointed at his calf with the tip of her foot. Her mesmerizing smile made one’s head spin. “Guess,” she replied.
“It’s you, Lu Zhiyuan.”
He held her ankle and effortlessly removed her shoes with one hand. He pulled her foot and pressed it against his upper abdomen, exuding a devilish charm that surpassed Gu Ci’s. “You stepped on it,” he teased.
Gu Ci didn’t expect him to be so wild. She was afraid of hurting his wound, so she was about to retract her foot. However, before she could do so, Lu Zhiyuan exerted force and pulled her down, causing her soles to almost scald.
Just then, the waiter entered with the yogurt that Gu Ci had ordered. Her face turned crimson, burning with embarrassment. She subconsciously wanted to dodge, but Lu Zhiyuan firmly held her ankle and gently hooked his finger around it.
His peach blossom eyes were filled with a dark desire, and his voice turned slightly hoarse. “See what happens if you move.”
“You… acting like a hooligan,” Gu Ci anxiously and embarrassedly exclaimed. As the waiter served the yogurt, she began cleaning up the cutlery, her long legs discreetly hidden under the tablecloth, lightly stepping on Lu Zhiyuan.
Lu Zhiyuan held her ankle and taught her how to move.
Gu Ci froze, her toes curling up, almost knocking over the cups and plates. Witnessing this, the waiter hurriedly apologized, further adding to Gu Ci’s flushed face.
The waitress couldn’t help but think that this couple was unexpectedly serious. She didn’t anticipate Lu Zhiyuan to be attracted to such a serious girl.
Little did she know that the seemingly composed man and woman could be so uninhibited.
As soon as the waiter left, Gu Ci opened her mouth, about to express her frustration. However, Lu Zhiyuan swiftly pulled her over, making her sit on his lap. He pressed her down and kissed her while Gu Ci lightly hit his chest, her strength no match for him.
Satisfied with the kiss, he couldn’t suppress the desire burning within him. Lu Zhiyuan hooked Gu Ci’s chin. “To please a man, a man has to teach the woman,” he said seductively.
Gu Ci flirtatiously slapped his face, and Lu Zhiyuan caught her hand, kissing it with possessive ardor evident in his amorous eyes.
“Don’t look at others!” Lu Zhiyuan declared proudly. “No one can compare to me!”
After breakfast, Gu Ci, who had few desires, felt like a wolf or a tiger. She felt so embarrassed that she didn’t want to remember the second half of it. Following Lu Zhiyuan’s competition, he rarely had spare time. After breakfast, he took Gu Ci out to play.
He brought Gu Ci for a helicopter ride. Lu Zhiyuan possessed a helicopter license. Concerned for his safety, Li Jiang advised him against risking his life by flying the helicopter. During Lu Zhiyuan’s preparation time, Li Jiang turned to Gu Ci and said, “Miss Gu, the Third Young Master likes to show off his skills in front of you. It’s the kind of behavior males exhibit when courting in spring. He can’t control himself. Don’t follow him. He’s been flying helicopters three times since he obtained his license. It’s very dangerous.”
“I trust him,” Gu Ci chuckled. “I’ll be fine.”
Li Jiang broke out in a cold sweat. If something happened to him, something would happen to me too!
Gu Ci’s eyes were fixed on Lu Zhiyuan. “He’ll be careful when I’m by his side.”
As Gu Ci expected, Lu Zhiyuan’s helicopter ride was smooth. They didn’t fly too high, and he avoided flying over the city. After taking Gu Ci to a scenic area, he flew along the coastline for fun.
Lu Zhiyuan asked, “Are you afraid?”
Gu Ci shook her head. “I’m not afraid when I’m with you.”
Lu Zhiyuan smiled tenderly, his eyes filled with gentleness. The surge of emotions in his heart was passionate, and he wished to fly to the ends of the earth with Gu Ci.
The two of them played until nightfall at the hotel. Zhou Jinjin was well aware of what was happening. She had spent the entire day alone in the casino, losing a hundred dollars and even hooking up with a handsome young man. They even had a romantic dinner. Zhou Jinjin, who had hoped to meet the king of the sea, discovered that her newfound companion was only seventeen years old, instantly ruining the mood.
When Gu Ci heard this, she laughed so hard that she leaned back. “Is he handsome?”
“A seventeen-year-old Italian boy. Don’t you think he’s handsome?”
“In Italy, he’s sixteen.” Gu Ci chuckled. “That’s good enough.”
Zhou Jinjin had no energy left to complain. The team would be in Lasvi for three days, and there were some business matters to discuss. Zhou Jinjin grew tired of staying in one place for too long. “Lu Zhiyuan’s competition is over. Let’s go on a trip to Northern Europe before returning.”
Gu Ci considered it. “I’ll ask Lu Zhiyuan.”
“I don’t want Lu Zhiyuan on my best friend’s trip.”
“Alright!”
Upon hearing that Gu Ci planned to go to Northern Europe, Lu Zhiyuan’s expression turned sour, displaying his extreme unhappiness. After concluding his business in Lavis, he had a few exhibition matches in M Nation. However, due to his injury, Lu Zhiyuan didn’t participate in the exhibition matches. He returned to the country earlier, hoping to accompany Gu Ci back.
Though unhappy, Gu Ci didn’t stop them. She asked Li Jiang to assign a guard to her, so she and Zhou Jinjin could freely enjoy themselves. The guard, named Yang Zhou, was a taciturn young man. He remained almost invisible, making it impossible for others to sense his presence. However, he was dedicated to protecting Gu Ci and Zhou Jinjin.
In City A, at the Auction House, Gu Chuyun, Qiao Yamei, and Chen Ying attended an auction. Despite her recent tarnished image, Gu Chuyun had no shortage of money. Lu Man doted on her and even gave her tens of millions as pocket money.
She indulged in buying things to alleviate her depressed mood.
“Chu Yun, this emerald necklace is stunning,” Qiao Yamei remarked, admiring an emerald pendant the size of a pigeon’s egg adorned with hundreds of pearls. It was extravagant, beautiful, and highly collectible. It happened to be the grand finale item of the auction.
Gu Chuyun had a liking for precious gemstones. “I must have it,” she determined.
Qiao Yamei said, “If you want it, who would dare to snatch it from you!”
The necklace was known as the Eye of Jupiter and was put up for auction by a collector. The bidding started at 100 million yuan and gradually climbed to 150 million.
Gu Chuyun raised her paddle. “160 million.”
“180 million,” a socialite called out.
“200 million!”
The bidding war continued, quickly reaching 300 million yuan. Gu Chuyun despised those who didn’t know their limits.
When the socialite bid 300 million yuan and that was her limit.
Gu Chuyun was delighted. She had never lost when it came to wealth. Chen Ying commented, “No one else is bidding, so it’s definitely yours.”
“350 million!” a deep male voice added an extra 50 million.
Gu Chuyun was rendered speechless.
She didn’t expect Jiang Junlin to bid such a high price at the auction. Chen Ying said, “Well, it’s your brother, after all.”
As the owner of a bank, he was certainly not short of funds.
Gu Chuyun respectfully stated, “He’s definitely getting the jade necklace for Grandma. I’ll coax Grandma into giving it to me.”
“Aren’t you quick-witted?” Qiao Yamei remarked, jokingly. “I wish I had such a handsome and wealthy brother too.”
After the auction ended, Gu Chuyun had initially intended to look for Jiang Junlin. However, after Jiang Junlin paid for the necklace, he disappeared without showing any intention of meeting Gu Chuyun.
“Hasn’t there been any movement from the Jiang family regarding Gu Ci? It’s been so many days,” Chen Ying inquired.
“Of course not. Grandma only recognizes me as her granddaughter,” Gu Chuyun boasted, feeling smug. “She won’t acknowledge Gu Ci.”
“I saw Zhou Jinjin’s Moments. She and Gu Ci are having a great time in Northern Europe. I wonder if she has enough money to splurge on luxury goods.”
The three of them laughed heartily, freely making fun of Gu Ci and Zhou Jinjin..
