After she died, Mr. Bo knelt in front of the tombstone and cried like a dog.

Nan Chu was not surprised by Lu Zhilu's answer.

It is because I know it so clearly and understand it so well that I know how to force him to give up that little bit of unwillingness.

There is no need to go all-in at the gambling table again and lose everything just for a little bit of unwillingness.

She couldn't afford to lose, and neither could Lu Zhilu.

"Lu Zhilu, I actually prefer you being Lu Ruzhuo's father to being my spouse."

The former may change, but the latter never changes.

In fact, she doesn't like too many changes, but being with Lu Zhilu is always full of excitement and rapid changes. There are too many complicated relationships and pros and cons in his world, which are things that Nan Chu is tired of dealing with.

If they loved each other enough, perhaps they could still resist, but for two people like them who had no trust in each other, they would be separated by a single blow without any big storm. If they tried to test it again, it would be terrible.

When she turned to leave, Lu Zhilu grabbed her wrist again.

His voice was a little drunken and slightly out of tune: "I really can't abandon the Lu family to be with you, but why do I have to choose between you and the Lu family? Love is indeed not everything in my life. I have a family responsibility on my shoulders that I need to shoulder. That is something I can't shirk since I was born. But I can promise that in my love, there will only be you in the future. Isn't that enough, Nan Chu?"

"When I say try, I mean try seriously, not just for fun."

Every word he spoke was extremely serious, completely different from his previous careless self.

The grip on her wrist was tight.

Nan Chu had his back to him, and his heart, which had finally been firm, began to show signs of a shaky crack.

Her eyes gradually became hot and her vision blurred: "Lu Zhilu, why are you telling me this now? I have made up my mind and don't want to look back. I have finally lived the life I want, why do you want to keep me hanging and tormenting me?!"

Her voice trembled and she burst into tears.

"Is the life you want to live a plain life with an ordinary man? Did you fall in love with Su Jingnian because he was ordinary? Do you believe this lie?"

Nan Chu shook her head and wanted to say that Su Jingnian was extraordinary, but they were different, but tears welled up and her throat was blocked, and she couldn't speak for a while.

With red eyes, Lu Zhilu pushed her against the door, lowered his head and kissed her. All the sobs and rejections were blocked by this kiss.

He kissed her hard and domineeringly. At first she resisted and tried to push him away, even biting him with her teeth. But the kiss became more and more violent, almost swallowing up all her resistance.

The last bit of sanity and clarity was shattered by the raging waves.

She felt her soul falling in compromise, and she even responded to him involuntarily. That kind of physiological body liking was too irresistible.

She closed her eyes and put her arms around his neck. They kissed more and more passionately at the door and walked into the room with staggered steps. Lu Zhilu put one arm around her waist and with the other hand he pulled off the tie around her neck and threw it on the carpet.

Everything that followed came naturally.

Nan Chu was pushed onto the bed by him, their bodies entangled with each other, igniting at the slightest touch.

The sexual desire of adult men and women is direct and overwhelming, and can be completely separated from responsibility.

She indulged herself for the last time, but was also testing herself. After tonight, Lu Zhilu gradually lost his desire to conquer her and his interest in her. Soon, his enthusiasm would cool down, and he would never be as patient as he was tonight to pester her.

Their feelings were not strong enough to withstand distance, separation, or quarrels. Once his family interests were involved, she would always be the one abandoned without hesitation.

I haven't seen her for more than half a year. During this period, her life has been smooth, and even if there are occasional disturbances, it is still relatively stable. I didn't miss her much during the days when we didn't see each other, but when we really met and our bodies were so passionately entangled, those ordinary thoughts came pouring out like a flood.

The air in Nan Chu's chest was sucked out, like a dying fish. His hands were wrapped around his shoulders, leaving a series of finger marks.

Lu Zhilu was a bit cruel in bed, not gentle at all. After he felt that she responded actively, he became even more presumptuous.

……

When it ended, it was already past two in the morning.

Lu Zhilu drank a lot of wine, and he was exhausted from exercise, so he fell asleep beside her with his arms wrapped around her waist.

The phone made a muffled buzzing sound in the bag that was thrown on the carpet.

Nan Chu bent sideways and took out his cell phone from his bag. The caller ID showed Meng Jingyi.

She glanced at the sleeping Lu Zhilu, gently moved the arm across her waist away, wrapped herself in clothes, took her cell phone and went into the bathroom before answering the call.

Meng Jingyi asked worriedly: "Jiaojiao, why haven't you come back yet? Where are you?"

"Oh, I'll take a taxi back later. A colleague of mine is moving tonight and I went to help her move. Now she feels bad about it and treated me to hotpot again."

After she explained this, Meng Jingyi believed it and no longer doubted it.

He only said: "Be careful on the road."

"Ah."

After hanging up the phone, Nan Chu came out of the bathroom, picked up the clothes scattered on the bedroom carpet, and put them back on one by one.

When I came out of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, the cool night breeze blew on my face, blowing away all my previous enthusiasm and impulses.

There is a 24-hour pharmacy not far away.

A series of extremely passionate scenes flashed through my mind, but I was too hasty and selfless and did not take any action.

She bought a box of birth control pills and a bottle of water, and felt much more at ease after taking the pills.

I made a mistake tonight because I was too excited, but this mistake cannot continue to develop into a more serious one.

After withdrawing from that failed marriage, she learned how to protect herself and keep a way out.

……

The next morning.

Mandarin Oriental Hotel, in the Panoramic Executive Suite.

Lu Zhilu's cell phone kept ringing, and he grabbed it with his eyes closed.

I put the phone to my ear and answered it. My morning voice was hoarse and I said, "Hello?"

It was my colleague Zuo Yang who called: "Boss, we were fooled by Ji Yang. This morning, Huake signed a two-year contract with a local law firm in Shenzhen."

Lu Zhilu frowned, his expression was particularly unfriendly, "Damn it, you really think I'm a vegetarian!"

This is indeed not the imperial capital, and the Lu family’s reach is not that long. The Shenzhen Stock Exchange has its own circles.

But this doesn't mean that he could remain calm and not care at all after being grossly disgusted by Ji Yang.

If he doesn't teach that idiot a lesson, he's not called Lu.

Zuo Yang asked: "The business is over, Boss, shall we book a flight back to the capital today?"

"Screw that shit, let's beat Ji Yang first."

Zuo Yang misunderstood and said hesitantly, "Ah? Boss, are you going to do that to him? Not really! You don't need to get yourself into trouble just to teach him a lesson..."

"Are you sick? Why should I sleep with a sissy like him who is popular with both men and women? I just want to teach him a lesson. If you have something else to do, you can go back to the law firm first."

"Then take it easy, boss. This is Shenzhen after all, and Ji Yang is quite powerful in Shenzhen."

Lu Zhilu responded: "Yes, I know."

After hanging up the phone.

Lu Zhilu closed his eyes and leaned tiredly against the bed. His mind was a little fragmented. After recollecting the past, his memory of last night gradually came together. The sound of panting echoed in his ears...
