Chapter 35: Use Their Own Trick Against Them
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lu Anran was clever to choose the villa as the venue for the engagement banquet.
It not only proved that she wasn’t a mistress in a love nest, but also dispelled the rumors that she was a kept woman.
It would also slap those who were gleefully watching the drama.
It’s just that some people weren’t happy.
Gu Liangchen went to the villa that night. When he walked in, Lu Anran was swimming in the outdoor pool in the courtyard.
Lu Anran was wearing a light blue swimsuit. Her black hair was swaying in the water while she swam. Her face was beautiful and radiant. From a distance, she looked like a beautiful mermaid, or a charming sea monster.
Gu Liangchen stared blankly for a while, and even the anger that filled his heart swiftly dissipated by half.
Sensing that Gu Liangchen was watching, Lu Anran deliberately swam two more laps in the water before coming out of the pool. She walked towards GU Liangchen, dripping.
She tilted her head, blinked her eyes, and asked teasingly, “President Gu came for an interrogation?”
Gu Liangchen came to his senses. His handsome face appeared irritated, but he still took a bath towel and put it on Lu Anran’s shoulders. “It’s nice that you know.”
Lu Anran smiled, took Gu Liangchen’s hand, and made him sit down. She wrapped her arms around and sat on his lap. “I know you would come, but did I do something wrong?”
Gu Liangchen looked at her. “You’re using the house I gave you for your engagement banquet. Engaged to another man! Now you’re asking me what did you do?”
“The things that are given to me are, well, mine. How to live and with whom I want to live is all my business. Otherwise, you can take back the house.”
Gu Liangchen held her waist tightly. “Is the house the main point?”
“Oh, I understand, Cheng Zhi is the main point.” Lu Anran nodded. “But isn’t Zhu Lanyi beside you? You got a marriage certificate, while Cheng Zhi and I are just engaged.”
“You know that our marriage was all a front. It’s a business deal.”
“I don’t want to get serious with Cheng Zhi either.”
Gu Liangchen frowned. “What do you mean?”
“It’s what you think it means.”
Lu Anran smirked. “Cheng Zhi is just a pawn. I’m just using him.
Gu Liangchen stared at her for a while, then he smiled. “In just a few days, you have become smarter. Do you need my help?”
Lu Anran smiled slyly. “President Gu wants to send a congratulatory gift?”
“Lu Anran!”
“It’s alright. You can’t take a joke.”
Lu Anran wanted to get up from his lap, but Gu Liangchen held her back, so she didn’t move. “How can the parents not attend their son’s engagement banquet? You send someone to bring Cheng Zhi’s parents over, but you must wait for the engagement banquet to start before letting them show up.”
“No problem.”
Gu Liangchen agreed readily. His hands and feet couldn’t keep still. His thin lips were already on Lu Anran’s cheeks.
“Anran, you smell so good.”
Lu Anran concealed the coldness in her eyes, then put her hand to his lips. “We agreed that until you are divorced, we’ll keep distance.”
Gu Liangchen was willing to listen, and he kissed her palms with his thin lips. “Just hugs and kisses. I promise not to do anything else, eh?”
Lu Anran nodded when she heard this, then pulled her hand back, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed his lips.
Gu Liangchen didn’t expect that she would kiss him, and the arm around her waist loosened. Just as he was about to hold the back of her head, he felt that his arms were empty, and Lu Anran had already jumped into the swimming pool like an agile cat.
“Okay, the hugs and kisses are over, so please go back, President Gu. Take care, and I won’t be sending you off.”
Gu Liangchen chuckled. “An An, you really know how to torture people.”
