Chapter 446 She is my woman
"Yangyang..." Gu Rong instinctively reached out to support her, "Are you alright?"

Lin Leyang shook her head. "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and I was thinking of asking you to go shopping together today."

He paused, then asked, "Who is that person?"

Gu Rong glanced at Lu Wenzhou's retreating figure as he disappeared at the stairwell, her eyes growing increasingly gloomy, and uttered the words: "An unimportant person."

“Sheng Sheng… Lu Sheng Sheng…” Lu Wenzhou searched room by room and finally found Lu Sheng Sheng sitting on the floor in the master bedroom.

Her clothes were disheveled, and tears still clung to her pale face; it was obvious what had happened without even asking.

Lu Wenzhou felt a dull knife cutting into his heart. He immediately took off his coat and covered her with it. "It's alright, it's alright, I'll take you away."

Lu Shengsheng's curled eyelashes trembled slightly. She looked up and met his dark eyes. There was no mockery, no pity, only heartache in her eyes.

His throat felt like it was blocked, and he couldn't speak, only nodding.

Lu Wenzhou helped her to her feet and, seeing the boxes and jewelry boxes on the ground, asked, "Are you taking these with you?"

Lu Shengsheng nodded.

"Wait for me." Lu Wenzhou bent down to pick up the box and put it in her suitcase, then fastened it. He gently held her wrist with one hand and pushed the suitcase with the other. "Let's go."

Lu Shengsheng followed her downstairs.

Gu Ronghui and Lin Leyang hadn't left yet. When they came down, Lin Leyang subconsciously looked at the man beside her.

Lu Shengsheng walked down the stairs and saw them. She took a deep breath and said, "Wait for me."

Lu Wenzhou stood there waiting for her.

Lu Shengsheng strode towards Gu Ronghui and, almost without hesitation, raised her hand and slapped him across the face.

Gu Rong turned her head to one side, lightly touched the tip of her tongue and smiled without saying a word.

Lin Leyang became agitated, "What right do you have to hit me?"

Lu Shengsheng said coldly, "Because he almost raped me!"

Lin Leyang's face turned pale and then red, her eyes darting between the two of them, unsure of what to say.

Gu Ronghui showed no shame or remorse for his actions, and parted his thin lips slightly, "Feeling better now?"

"Screw your mother!" Lu Shengsheng cursed. "I'm warning you, if you dare to treat me like this again, I swear I'll castrate you."

After saying that, regardless of their reaction, he turned around and said, "Lu Wenzhou, let's go."

Lu Wen glanced coldly at Gu Ronghui, then pushed his suitcase and left the villa with Lu Shengsheng.

Lin Leyang turned to look at Gu Ronghui's reddened cheek. He seemed not to care at all, his eyes fixed on Lu Shengsheng.

“Ah Hui…” she said slowly, “Uncle Gu doesn’t seem to have ever hit you.”

Lu Shengsheng hit him, but he didn't seem angry.

Gu Rong gave a faint "hmm".

Lin Leyang's heart sank, and her voice carried a hint of coldness, "I don't like you like this."

Gu Rong lowered her gaze and said calmly, "What kind of me have you ever liked?"

Lin Leyang choked, lowered her eyes and said aggrievedly, "Are you still angry about the time I refused to let you go abroad?"

"I don't remember anything from the past." Gu Ronghui clearly didn't want to talk about the past.

"Okay, then I won't say anything more." Lin Leyang changed the subject, reminding him, "Ah Hui, you're already divorced, you can't keep indulging her like this."

Gu Rong glanced back, "Indulgent?"

Lin Leyang nodded: "She hit you like that." Isn't that considered condoning it?
"She's my woman. Slapping me twice isn't condoning anything," Gu Rong replied casually, seemingly unconcerned about Lu Shengsheng slapping him. Lin Leyang's watery eyes widened suddenly; she hadn't expected Lu Shengsheng to be so important to him.

Ah Hui, who once said he would always protect me, seems to be getting further and further away from me.

***
In the car.

Lu Shengsheng took a few sips of water, wiped away her tears, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry you had to see this."

Lu Wenzhou said nonchalantly, "Need me to help you vent your anger?"

Lu Shengsheng turned her head to look at him, her eyes full of doubt.

"It's a piece of cake for him to put a virus on his company's system."

Lu Shengsheng sniffed and said sullenly, "Forget it."

"You can't bear to part with him?" Lu Wenzhou was about to ask when he heard her say, "It's not worth ruining your life for that piece of shit."

Lu Wenzhou hadn't expected that she was afraid he would go to jail. She smiled slightly and said, "Since I dared to do it, I'll make sure no one can find out."

Lu Shengsheng shook her head again, "Forget it, let's go back. I don't want to mention that unlucky thing!"

As he started the car, he said, "Don't let my mom know about what happened today. I don't want her to worry."

Lu Wenzhou nodded: "Okay."

When they got back, Lu's mother was still resting. They didn't know what had happened to her that afternoon.

During dinner that evening, Lu Shengsheng returned to normal, showing no trace of her previous behavior.

After finishing his meal, Lu Wenzhou returned to his room, turned on his computer, and entered a black screen. After hesitating for a long time, he finally started typing.

Although she said she didn't need it, he couldn't bear to see her being bullied like this, so he had to find something for the guy surnamed Gu to do, at least to keep him from bothering Lu Shengsheng anymore.

New Year's Eve.

Lu Shengsheng got up early to prepare, and Lu Wenzhou also helped put up the couplets.

They had a quick lunch of noodles, and at four o'clock in the evening, Lu Wenzhou set off firecrackers before the three of them ate their New Year's Eve dinner together.

Lu Shengsheng personally prepared the New Year's Eve dinner. Lu Wenzhou ate a lot, but didn't drink any alcohol. He raised his juice to his mother and said, "Thank you, Auntie and Shengsheng, for taking me in. Otherwise, I would be eating a rare steak right now."

"You're welcome," Mrs. Lu said with a smile. "In the past, Sheng Sheng would always participate in TV station activities on New Year's Eve. It's rare that we can spend the New Year together this year, and it's been quite lively."

Lu Shengsheng held up her glass, looking smug, and said, "Good to know. From now on, you must follow my lead."

Lu's mother glared at her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Wen Zhou is older than you."

Lu Wenzhou didn't mind at all and said, "Okay, from now on you're my Sister Sheng."

Lu Shengsheng burst into laughter at his address of "Sister Sheng," and Lu's mother watched the scene unfold without interfering.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Lu Wenzhou refused to let Lu Shengsheng wash the dishes, which she had prepared. He washed the dishes himself in the kitchen and let the mother and daughter watch TV and chat in the living room.

As Lu's mother cracked sunflower seeds, she glanced at the man's tall figure in the kitchen and asked softly, "What do you think of Wen Zhou?"

"What do you mean, how?" Lu Shengsheng didn't understand what she meant at first.

"Don't tell me you didn't know Wen Zhou had feelings for you?" Lu's mother muttered.

“Mom, just because it’s dark doesn’t mean you can dream,” Lu Shengsheng said with a smile. “We’re good friends, and he knows I’m divorced.”

"So what?" Mrs. Lu said indifferently. "What era are we living in? Who cares about divorce now? I think Wen Zhou is a good person. You should consider it."

"Mom~ Anyone in this world might like me, but Lu Wenzhou won't," Lu Shengsheng said with absolute certainty. "Don't try to play matchmaker, okay? Otherwise, things will get awkward between us later..."
