Chapter 422 I Don't Need to Fight
Lu Shengsheng walked straight past him as if she hadn't seen him.

Ignored by her, Gu Rong's face grew even darker, and he asked in a cold voice, "Where did you go last night?"

He went to look for villas and apartments, but no one was there.

Lu Shengsheng turned to look at him, her eyes filled with mockery, "Didn't your white moonlight serve you well last night? Now you're asking me to finish the meal?"

Gu Ronghui's forehead veins throbbed. "Lu Shengsheng, do you have to say such awful things?"

"Is anything you did more shameful?" Lu Shengsheng retorted without hesitation.

Suppressing her anger, Gu Rong asked, "Why did you change the apartment's password?"

"Because I don't want to get bitten by a dog in the middle of the night while I'm sleeping soundly!"

Unable to bear it any longer, Gu Ronghui stepped forward, grabbed her by the neck, and slammed her against the wall. Anger surged in his usually indifferent eyes. "Say that again?"

Lu Shengsheng's slender neck was being gripped by him, her face flushed red, but she showed no fear whatsoever, gritting her teeth as she said, "I can say it a thousand times, you're still a dog. Calling you a dog is an insult to dogs! Gu Ronghui, you're a beast, a bastard, a piece of scum..."

"You—" Gu Rong raised his hand, intending to slap her face.

Instead of dodging, Lu Shengsheng raised her face, showing no fear.

"Go ahead and hit me! As long as you're not afraid of being seen, President Gu is abusing his wife, so go ahead and hit me!" Lu Shengsheng laughed provocatively. "I've been worried about not having a chance to trend on social media lately! If you slap me, I'll immediately take a selfie and post it on Weibo. I'll even thank President Gu for giving me the number one spot on the trending list!"

"Hopeless!" Gu Rong shoved her neck away and turned to leave.

"Cough cough..." Lu Shengsheng lowered her head and coughed uncontrollably. Watching his departing figure, she couldn't help but spit out, "Pah! You bastard, scumbag!"

Gu Rong got back into the car. The driver saw that he was alone and looked rather unwell, so he guessed that he had probably argued with his wife again.

Only his wife has the ability to make President Gu so angry.

"Mr. Gu, are you going to the company?"

Gu Rong loosened his tie and rubbed his temples. "Hmm."

The driver drove on in silence.

Gu Rong lowered the car window to get some fresh air when her phone suddenly rang. It was her assistant calling.

"Mr. Gu, the apartment won't let us change the combination lock!" came the assistant's trembling voice from the other end of the phone.

Gu Rong frowned: "Didn't you tell them about my relationship with Lu Shengsheng?"

"They said..." The assistant swallowed hard and said cautiously, "They said that your wife told them you are already going through divorce proceedings, and that letting you in might pose a threat to her personal safety. She will definitely post on Weibo to condemn it."

The property management didn't want to offend President Gu, and even less did they want to offend Lu Shengsheng, since she was a big star. If she really posted them on Weibo, the backlash from her fans alone would be enough to give them a hard time.

Gu Rong's hand, gripping the phone, turned pale. After a few seconds of silence, she managed to utter two words: "Come back."

After hanging up the phone, the anger that had just been suppressed surged up again, "Lu, Sheng, Sheng!"

The driver felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing the sound.

This time, the wife really angered President Gu.

*
Lu Shengsheng didn't care whether Gu Ronghui, that bastard, had hair or eggs. After finishing the last week of training, she went to the set to get her hair and makeup done and take her costume photos.

The start date for filming has been set for next Monday. Before that, Zhao Xuan arranged a gig for her at a high-end jewelry gala.

Lu Shengsheng specially chose a red dress and put on heavy makeup, as the dim lighting at the banquet made her makeup look less vibrant.

After entering, I greeted everyone and then took my seat.

Not long after, the head of the jewelry company's domestic division personally led someone over. "Sheng Sheng, let me introduce you. This is Lin Leyang from Lin's Bank." "Miss Lin, and this is..."

Lin Leyang smiled slightly: "No need to trouble yourself, we know each other. Long time no see, Sheng Sheng."

Despite her displeasure, Lu Shengsheng still stood up and, maintaining a professional demeanor, said, "Miss Lin..."

Seeing that the two were acquaintances and had some history, the boss didn't say anything more. "You two chat, I'll go take a look over there."

Lin Leyang nodded, watching his retreating figure, then her gaze returned to Lu Shengsheng's face. "May I sit here?"

Lu Shengsheng gave a forced smile, "Miss Lin, what are you saying! There's nowhere in the entire capital you can't sit down?"

You can sleep in my bed and wear my pajamas, I'll let you!

Lin Leyang sat down and responded to the curious glances from all around with a generous smile.

If it weren't for the cameras filming, Lu Shengsheng would have really wanted to roll her eyes at the smile on her face.

Lin Leyang looked at Lu Shengsheng beside her and said softly, "Do you have some misunderstanding about me?"

Before Lu Shengsheng could answer, he added, "I didn't come back to take Ah Hui away from you."

Lu Shengsheng sneered: "No matter what cats or dogs you come back to steal, it has nothing to do with me!"

Lin Leyang smiled faintly and said slowly, "Ahui and I are childhood sweethearts, it has nothing to do with love. Don't make a fuss with him because of me, he won't be angry with you."

These words, when spoken to Lu Shengsheng, were blatantly: I don't need to fight, just standing here is enough to win! As long as you don't cause trouble, I'll grant you the title of Mrs. Gu!
Lu Shengsheng sniffed and asked, "Can you smell it?"

"What?" Lin Leyang asked, puzzled.

"Wow, such a strong tea smell!" Lu Shengsheng asked in confusion, "Miss Lin, does your family really own a bank? Are you sure you don't own a tea shop? How come you smell so strongly of tea?"

Lin Leyang's smile froze for a few seconds before quickly returning to normal. She said slowly and deliberately, "I admit you are very beautiful, but a woman's momentary reliance on her beauty may make a man find her cute, but constantly relying on her beauty will only annoy him."

"Really?" Lu Shengsheng said disdainfully, "Then he should get tired of me soon. I'm already tired of sleeping with him and I've been wanting to change things up for a while."

Lin Leyang didn't speak, but looked behind her, a hint of a smile in her eyes.

What flavor would you like to try?

A deep, cold voice suddenly exploded from above, causing Lu Shengsheng to tremble involuntarily. Turning around, she met Gu Ronghui's eyes, which were filled with icy glints.

"Anything that isn't to your taste is fine." Lu Shengsheng showed no guilt or fear at being caught, completely adopting a "what's the use" attitude.

The boss wiped his sweat. "Mr. Gu, why don't you sit over there?"

The original plan was to seat the couple at the same table, but it turns out their relationship seems to be... not very good.

"That's it."

After Gu Rong finished speaking, she took a step and sat down in the empty seat between Lu Shengsheng and Lin Leyang.

Boss: “…”

Lu Shengsheng: “…”

Lin Leyang: "..."

"Please have a seat, we'll begin shortly..." The boss quickly found an excuse to leave this chaotic scene.
