Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Mr. Jun.” Wen Ruoshui greeted him politely.
“Miss Wen.” Jun s.h.i.+yan smiled politely.
“For your wife?” Dongfang Chu looked at the rose in his hand. “It’s very pretty. Madam will definitely like it.”
Jun s.h.i.+yan said, “Thank you.”
The elevator door opened.
!!
Jun s.h.i.+yan took a step back and made a gentlemanly gesture.
Dongfang Chu pulled Wen Ruoshui into the elevator.
The waiter beside him broke out in a cold sweat. Upon seeing everyone go up, he wanted to say something, but he held it back in the end.
This elevator was Mr. Jun’s personal elevator. How could he let others use it? However, they seemed to be friends. If anything went wrong, the manager probably would not blame him.
“Which floor?” Jun s.h.i.+yan asked.
“88.” Dongfang Chu smiled politely.
The elevator floor lit up. 88 and 99.
Clearly, he was going to the 99th floor, the highest floor of the hotel.
It was very quiet in the elevator. After a simple greeting, no one spoke again.
Wen Ruoshui felt her scalp tingle. She was about to die of embarra.s.sment. Her grip on Dongfang Chu’s hand tightened involuntarily, and her breathing became very light.
Dongfang Chu looked calm as she tried her best to mentally prepare herself. She was just greeting a friend she knew. It was nothing.
Soon, the elevator reached the 88th floor and the door opened.
Wen Ruoshui hurriedly pulled Dongfang Chu out, wis.h.i.+ng she could leave this awkward s.p.a.ce quickly.
“Take care.” Jun s.h.i.+yan smiled gently, his eyes still distant.
“I wish you a good night with Madam.” Dongfang Chu thought for a long time before saying this.
“Thank you. Have fun too.” As soon as Jun s.h.i.+yan finished speaking, the elevator door closed.
Dongfang Chu looked at the closing elevator door and the man’s disappearing figure. She felt an indescribable sense of disappointment.
As a woman, she had a feeling that he was not married and did not have a wife. Everything he said was just a lie.
After all, during this period of time, she had asked around. No matter who it was, they said that they had never seen his wife or any woman beside him.
She had seen him a few times on different occasions, but she had never seen him bring his wife along. Logically speaking, many important occasions, especially high-end gatherings, required a female companion.
Since he loved his wife so much, why couldn’t he bring her out to show off their affection?
If one thought about it in other ways, he might not like women at all, so he used a fake wife to shut everyone up.
“Chu Chu.” Seeing that she was lost in thought, Wen Ruoshui called out to her a few times but to no avail. She patted her. “Chu Chu.”
Dongfang Chu came back to her senses. “What’s wrong?”
Wen Ruoshui asked, “Are you thinking about Mr. Jun?”
Dongfang Chu did not deny it and nodded. “Why do you think he went on a date with Madam in a hotel? Do you know what the 99th floor is for?”
How could Wen Ruoshui know? She did not care about this. She took out her phone and checked. “The 99th floor is a private residence.”
Dongfang Chu was enlightened. “I knew it. So it’s his house.”
No, calling it a home was not accurate. Which rich person did not have a few houses? Especially someone as low-key and rich as him. He must have a lot of properties.
“You still like him?” Wen Ruoshui probed.
She had not expected to meet Jun s.h.i.+yan here. She also believed that Dongfang Chu must have met him coincidentally in the restaurant.
“What can I do to him? He’s a married man,” Dongfang Chu said very freely, her face full of curiosity. “Who do you think his wife is?”
She did not tell Wen Ruoshui her messy guesses, afraid that she would worry and think that she was still thinking about him.
“She must be a very good person.” Wen Ruoshui smiled.
When they got in the elevator, the man’s eyes were filled with gentleness and affection. It was impossible to lie to him. He loved his wife very much. His wife must be someone worthy of his deep love.
“If there’s a chance, I really want to see her.” Dongfang Chu looked down through the window. There was a lot of traffic and lights. It was lively and crowded, but her heart was a little empty at this moment.
“There will definitely be a chance,” Wen Ruoshui replied gently.
Everyone was in the capital, so his wife would have to show her face one day. There was no special reason why she could not see anyone. Everyone had to socialize.
Didn’t a mysterious person like Mr. Jun attend dinner parties and high-end banquets?
Dongfang Chu returned to her usual cheerful self in a short while. She said that she had not taken a bath with her in a long time. She sprinkled petals in the luxurious bathtub and pulled her to take a bath with her.
Dongfang Chu had just gotten into the bathtub and found the most comfortable position to lie down when her phone rang. She said lazily, “Shui Shui, help me see who it is.”
Wen Ruoshui took the phone. “It’s Yu’er. I’ll answer it.”
“Okay,” Dongfang Chu replied lazily. It was still more comfortable to take a hot shower. She emptied her mind and threw away all her worries.
“The signal here is not good. I’ll go out for a while.” When Wen Ruoshui heard that Nangong Lengyu was talking about Jun s.h.i.+yan, she casually found an excuse to go to the balcony.
Nangong Lengyu told her what had happened this afternoon. “He’s the man from the last auction, the one called Jun s.h.i.+yan. What exactly happened to him? Have you seen him recently?”
Wen Ruoshui was afraid that Dongfang Chu would hear her. “What’s wrong? What did he do to you?”
“He didn’t do anything to me. He just helped me today.” Nangong Lengyu was very baffled. Normally, people who were unaccountably solicitous were up to no good. However, she could not find any intentions in that man. It was as though he was purely helping her out.
Wen Ruoshui listened quietly to her recount what had happened in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, Nangong Lengyu went to the mall to buy clothes. It was her favorite brand that launched a new summer product. She went to get a few sets. The clothes had all been wrapped up, but she realized that she had not brought her card or phone.
At that time, the atmosphere was very awkward. She also felt a little embarra.s.sed. Not only that, but the staff of the branded shop rolled her eyes. She was so angry that she almost exploded on the spot.
At this moment, Jun s.h.i.+yan suddenly appeared, paid for her, and helped her out.
“I keep feeling that his att.i.tude towards me is a little strange.” Nangong Lengyu could not explain herself. “It’s that kind of strange feeling, do you know?”
Wen Ruoshui nodded. After hearing her words, she was enlightened. “I understand.”
She could also feel that Mr. Jun’s att.i.tude toward them, including his att.i.tude toward Brother Yan and Huo Ci, was very strange. She could not describe how she felt.
He was clearly older than them, but every time he faced them, he was respectful as if he knew them.
“What exactly does he want from us? Why did he help us for no reason?” Nangong Lengyu was really curious.
