Xiao Lan: [Zhihua, could you please tell Yiqing for me that I really want to go, but I... don't have a dress, so I'll have to cancel.]

When Gu Zhihua saw the WeChat message, she frowned. She knew that Xiao Lan used to be greedy for small gains, but she had noticed that Xiao Lan had changed a lot recently.

She thought for a moment and replied, "Okay, I'll pass on the message."

Xiao Lan was stunned when she saw the message. Shouldn't she have said she was going to give her a dress? Had she not made it obvious enough? Gu Zhihua was really stupid.

She sent a message: "I feel like it wouldn't be right not to go since they invited me, Zhihua, do you have any dresses you don't wear anymore? I don't mind."

Gu Zhihua knew it, and shook her head helplessly, replying: 【Okay, I'll take them to school tomorrow for Xintian to take back. One set for each of you.】

Xiao Lan smiled happily and replied: 【Okay, thank you, Zhihua.】

Gu Zhihua replied: 【I'm going to sleep now, goodnight.】

She suddenly didn't want to chat with her anymore; she felt like she had become a different person.

Her phone suddenly rang, and seeing it was her husband calling, she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes. "Honey~"

"What are you doing?" Mo Yeting's deep, magnetic voice came through.

"I'm thinking of you," Gu Zhihua said in a muffled voice, longing for her husband's embrace.

"Do you really think that way?" He certainly did.

"Of course, it's even more real than pearls, honey. I feel like I can't live without you. I haven't been able to eat or sleep these past two days, and you're all I can think about." Gu Zhihua looked at the empty room. "Especially at times like this, I miss your embrace so much."

at this time.

The door to the room was slowly opened. Gu Zhihua was startled at first, but when she saw the figure in the doorway, she jumped off the bed without even putting on her shoes, ran over, and threw herself into the man's arms.

"Husband~" she said, her voice trembling with tears, her eyes red.

She hugged him tightly, tears welling in her eyes, and looked up at him, "Am I dreaming?"

Mo Yeting lowered his head and kissed her lips. "It's not a dream, your husband is back. Why are you crying?"

"I miss you~" she said softly.

He was delighted by his wife's affection for him, and lifted her up in his arms, saying, "If you miss me, come take a bath with me, okay?"

"Okay~" She bit her lip and hugged his neck.

The two entered the bathroom. He carried her to the showerhead, took off his suit jacket and threw it into the laundry basket, held her in his arms, and turned on the shower. Warm water soaked them both...

Gu Zhihua tiptoed and kissed him eagerly.

He smiled wryly. "Wife, isn't this what they call 'absence makes the heart grow fonder'?"

Gu Zhihua blushed and punched his chest. "I don't care, all I want to do right now is do the most wonderful thing in the world with you."

Their kiss lingered, accompanied by the sound of water...

Much later.

Gu Zhihua was carried back to bed. Unlike usual, she forced her eyelids open and hugged Mo Yeting's waist tightly.

"What's wrong?" Mo Yeting hugged her tightly. "Shouldn't you usually fall asleep the moment your head hits the pillow at this time?"

"I'm afraid I'll wake up and my husband will be gone again," Gu Zhihua said coquettishly.

"Husband just went on a business trip," he said with a smile. He enjoyed his wife's clinginess and said gently, "From now on, I'll take you with me wherever I go. We won't be apart, not even for one night."

"Mmm." She nodded obediently. This time, she could clearly feel that he had unknowingly become part of her world.

"Go to sleep, be a good girl." He rubbed her head.

"Okay." She obediently closed her eyes.

The next day.

Gu Zhihua woke up to find her husband missing. "Husband~"

"Wife, what's wrong?" Mo Yeting rushed out of the bathroom when he heard his wife calling him.

"Honey~ Good morning~" Seeing her husband, she realized that last night was not a dream. She was so happy. "I want you to have breakfast with me."

"Okay," he said indulgently.

"Hubby, hug me," she said, reaching out affectionately.

Mo Yeting walked over, picked her up, carried her to the bathroom, put her down, helped her put on slippers, and squeezed toothpaste for her.

She enjoyed her husband's care, smiling foolishly, "Honey, it's so good to have you."

Mo Yeting pinched her playful face.

The two changed their clothes, went downstairs, and sat in the dining room to have breakfast.

Gu Zhihua, like a lovesick fool, enjoyed Mo Yeting's feeding, her eyes gazing at him affectionately, "Whose husband is this? He's so handsome."

Butler Mo walked in and saw his young mistress looking so infatuated. His lips twitched. So the young mistress hadn't had an appetite these past two days because the Fourth Master was away on a business trip. Now that she saw the Fourth Master, she was eating with great relish.

When Gu Zhihua saw Butler Mo come in, her face turned red, and she awkwardly picked up her milk and started drinking it.

Mo Yeting smiled when he saw her adorable little face.

After breakfast, the maid had already packed Xiao Lan and the others' dresses and brought them downstairs to her, saying, "Young Madam, here are your things."

"Okay." She took it.

Mo Yeting asked curiously, "What is this?"

"It's nothing, just two dresses. I'm off," Gu Zhihua said as she got into Leng Feng's car. "See you tonight, honey."

Mo Yeting waved to her, then got into Leng Yan's car, and they each left the manor.

Upon arriving at school, Gu Zhihua secretly handed the dress to Su Xintian, saying, "Xintian, here are two dresses. This one is yours, but you can give it to Xiao Lan."

"Zhihua, no need," Su Xintian said, then asked, as if remembering something, "Did Xiao Lan ask you for it?"

"No, you're going to Yiqing's birthday party, you can't go without a dress." Gu Zhihua didn't tell the truth, afraid of affecting the sisters' relationship.

"You're not lying to me, are you? I feel like Xiao Lan has changed. She's always thinking about wearing designer brands and using high-end skincare products. Everyone has their own ambitions, but I think we don't have the means to afford those things right now, so it's best not to covet them." Su Xintian was very straightforward.

"I also feel she's changed. Let's wait and see," Gu Zhihua smiled. "Take the dress. I know you don't care about these things."

Su Xintian couldn't refuse, so she reluctantly accepted it.

Xiao Lan arrived at her work post today, but she was distracted the whole time.

"Zhang Jing, Wei Wei, have you seen Manager Liang come to work?" she asked.

"I didn't see it."

"I didn't see it either."

Both shook their heads.

"I need to use the restroom." She picked up her phone and headed to the restroom.

"Did Xiao Lan get dumped by Liang Tao?" Zhang Jing gossiped.

"Maybe so. It's not surprising that Liang Tao, who's such a womanizer, changes girlfriends all the time."

Xiao Lan went into the restroom, took out her phone, and dialed Liang Tao's number. She finally got through.

"Hey! Who are you to Liang Tao?" A gruff voice came from the other end of the line, the man's tone was very unpleasant.

"I'm his girlfriend, but what about Liang Tao?" Xiao Lan frowned, a bad feeling creeping over her.
