I slept with the wrong person on my wedding night, and the boss spoiled me rotten!

Lin Tingran picked up her phone and glanced at it; it was Liang Yuan calling.

Just in time.

She was worried about how to get out of the situation, so she smiled, nodded to Jiang Xuxu, and answered the call.

"cousin?"

"Cousin, do you have time to come out now? I have something I want to talk to you about."

Yes, yes, yes, she's amazing!

But Lin Tingran deliberately gave Jiang Xuxu a hard look and said, "Xuxu, I need to meet the blind date arranged by my family."

"Okay, go ahead." Jiang Xuxu said with a forced smile.

Lin Tingran walked out of the milk tea shop with a smile.

When she heard that Liang Yuan wanted to meet her at the guesthouse, her face darkened and her tone on the other end of the phone became impatient.

"I'm busy right now. Don't call me unless it's important, even if it is, I'm busy!"

After hanging up, she turned to answer another call. "Okay, I'm coming over now."

Not long after Lin Tingran left, Jiang Xuxu received a message from Gu Jingshen: "Going out to meet a friend, will be back later."

As a result, he didn't return until midnight and didn't even make a phone call.

Jiang Xuxu sat on the edge of the bed, her phone screen turning on and off repeatedly until one o'clock in the morning.

There was still no news from Gu Jingshen, and he felt that sending a message to ask about it would be overstepping his bounds.

After all, they were just a contractual couple, and Gu Jingshen had no need to tell her his whereabouts.

Late at night, Jiang Xuxu had a dream.

In my dream, Gu Jingshen returned, covered in blood, and was standing by the window.

However, the hotel room is on the third floor.

He didn't say a word, just quietly looked at Jiang Xuxu, his face still bearing a doting smile, but there was a huge hole in his heart!

"Gu Jingshen!"

Jiang Xuxu was terrified, and only when she suddenly woke up did she realize it was a dream.

She couldn't help but worry: what if Lu Chen was retaliating? Would something bad happen?

After the last time in the parking lot, Lu Chen disappeared without a trace, and when Lin Tingran came to find her, she didn't mention it at all.

Jiang Xuxu had a vague sense of unease.

Without thinking, she quickly grabbed her phone to call Gu Jingshen, but before she could dial, another call came in.

She quickly pressed the answer button, "Gu Jingshen, where are you right now?"

"Sister, this is Rusheng. I think I just saw brother-in-law and a woman arguing. I've sent you the address. It's up to you whether you come or not!"

The call was disconnected, followed by an address sent by Jiang Rusheng.

Outside the window, rain had started falling from the sky, accompanied by lightning.

After much hesitation, Jiang Xuxu still went out with her umbrella.

In the private room at the end of the corridor on the second floor of Xiangjiang Yayuan, there was a lot of noise. Jiang Xuxu slowly approached, feeling a little uneasy.

If Gu Jingshen sees her coming over in the middle of the night, will he mind? Will he think she's overstepping her bounds?

She could only console herself that she had just come to take a look.

If Gu Jingshen drinks too much and wants to go back, she'll help him.

If he didn't need help, she would turn and leave, never interfering in his private life.

Having made up her mind, Jiang Xuxu approached the private room. The door was ajar, and inside, singing and dancing were in full swing.

In the corner, Gu Jingshen's slightly tipsy state was clearly visible.

A man's refined and aloof demeanor allows him to stand out in a crowd even when dressed in a casual suit.

He was holding a glass, his gaze seemingly unfocused on a certain spot in the private room, his eyes dark and unreadable.

"Brother Shen, your wife is so beautiful, why didn't you introduce her to us sooner? That's really not nice of you."

Gu Jingshen didn't speak, and his gaze shifted away from the corner, so Jiang Xuxu couldn't see the person in that spot.

Jiang Xuxu thought that the "sister-in-law" they were talking about referred to herself.

We told him to keep a low profile and not to spread the word, but his friends already know so quickly.

She turned around and went to the bathroom to call Gu Jingshen, just to ask him casually if he was going home tonight.

After all, he offended Lu Chen because of me; what if something really happens...?

The phone rang a few times before being disconnected.

Jiang Xuxu tentatively sent another message: [Are you coming back tonight? I'm going to lock the door.]

Still no response.

Gu Jingshen was clearly not drunk, so why wasn't he answering the phone or replying to messages?

Jiang Xuxu suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.

Those displays of "affection" were just a rehearsal, done for the elders to see; she was the one who was truly immersed in the role.

Jiang Xuxu turned to leave, but heard people talking as they came out of the restroom.

"Mr. Gu's fiancée is really beautiful!"

"Isn't that right? I heard they were betrothed as children, and the wedding is next month! Yi-ge said we should go and share in the joy!"

A childhood betrothal? Getting married next month?

Every word that fell into Jiang Xuxu's ears was like a thunderclap.

So, was there another woman sitting in the direction Gu Jingshen's gaze was fixed on?

This was the real reason he wasn't answering the phone or replying to messages, and Jiang Xuxu was somewhat disappointed.

Watching the two women walk away, she inexplicably followed them to find out what was going on.

I had only taken two steps when I saw Gu Jingshen and another man walking towards me from not far away.

Jiang Xuxu quickly covered her face and hid in a corner, thankfully she wasn't discovered.

"Don't invite her to any occasions where I'm present in the future."

In the corridor, Gu Jingshen lit a cigarette and said coldly.

Zhang Yi casually put his arm around his shoulder, a mischievous grin on his face: "What, still thinking about that girl from that night?"

He added, "Actually, I heard that she's not engaged and has been waiting for you."

The two stood side by side in the corridor, enjoying the breeze.

Gu Jingshen leaned against the railing with both hands, took a deep drag of his cigarette, stubbed it out, and closed his eyes to listen to the wind and rain outside.

Just now in the bathroom of the private room, Lin Tingran hugged and embraced him, something she had never done before.

The pure and lovely girl in Gu Jingshen's memory has now become coquettish and has even learned to smoke.

He was very disappointed.

"You don't understand."

"I don't understand," Zhang Yi changed the subject, "Just who is so charming that our woman-averse CEO Gu broke his vow and can't forget her?"

Gu Jingshen smiled but remained silent.

After a moment, he turned to look at Zhang Yi and said meaningfully, "She's different from others."

Just then, a waiter pushing a food cart passed by, and Jiang Xuxu quickly made way for him, not hearing what Gu Jingshen said.

"Is Brother Shen playing a cat-and-mouse game?"

Zhang Yi laughed loudly, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't blame me for being long-winded, it's enough to just play around with women outside. When it's time to get married, you still have to go home and get married."

"Yes, it's definitely time to get married." Gu Jingshen smiled and looked down.

"So, what's your impression of your future wife?"

Gu Jingshen didn't speak.

Zhang Yi probed, "You haven't actually developed feelings for someone else, have you? Aren't you always been averse to women who offer themselves up?"

Gu Jingshen glanced at him and said coldly, "Yes, I disdain women who offer themselves up."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuxu almost lost her balance, feeling as if her soul had been ripped out.

She leaned against the wall to steady herself, trying to calm herself down.

So that's how Gu Jingshen saw her—a cheap woman who offered herself up.

Jiang Xuxu couldn't help but laugh at herself.

It was just a charade anyway, but hearing him say that still made me inexplicably sad.

Before Gu Jingshen could say anything more, she turned and ran away in a disheveled state, forgetting even to take her umbrella.

Zhang Yi said with a smile, "Delivering food is still delivering."

He always thought that Gu Jingshen was in a bad mood and just slept with some woman who offered herself to him.

Until Jiang Xuxu disappeared from sight, Gu Jingshen said, "Except for Jiang Xuxu, besides, she's not a delivery person."
