Jiang Ciyou's husband finally noticed Lu Jingchen. He frowned and whispered to Jiang Ciyou, "Who is that person? Why is he staring at you?"

Jiang Ciyou's heart tightened, and he glanced at Lu Jingchen in a panic, then hesitantly said, "I... I don't know. Maybe I recognized the wrong person."

The husband looked at her doubtfully, his eyes full of doubt. He looked at Lu Jingchen carefully again. The man was tall and had an extraordinary temperament, especially his eyes, which were deep and mysterious, as if hiding countless stories. He really couldn't understand why such a man would keep staring at his wife.

"Did you really recognize the wrong person?" the husband asked again, with a hint of doubt in his tone.

Jiang Ciyou said impatiently, "I already said I don't know him, don't ask me anymore." Her mind was in a mess, and she didn't know how to explain Lu Jingchen's existence to her husband. She didn't want her husband to know about her past with Lu Jingchen, which was a memory she had tried to forget.

The husband was not relenting and continued to ask, "Why is he looking at you? Are you hiding something from me?"

Jiang Ciyou was upset. She felt that her husband's questioning made her feel very stressed. She tried to control her emotions and said, "Can you stop being so suspicious? I really don't know him. Maybe he just thinks I look like someone he knows."

The husband obviously didn't believe Jiang Ciyou's explanation, his eyes were full of suspicion and dissatisfaction. "You'd better not lie to me. If I find out that you're hiding something from me, you know the consequences." He threatened.

Jiang Ciyou sighed helplessly. She knew her husband's temper. Once he became suspicious, it would be difficult to dispel his suspicion. She could only try to stay calm and hope that her husband would believe her.

At this moment, Lu Jingchen's eyes turned to Jiang Ciyou again. Jiang Ciyou felt his gaze and became even more flustered. She didn't dare to look at Lu Jingchen, so she could only lower her head and pretend to look at her hands.

The husband noticed something was wrong with Jiang Ciyou, and he followed her gaze and saw Lu Jingchen again. His face became even uglier, and he felt that this man must have something to do with Jiang Ciyou.

"Let's go somewhere else." The husband pulled Jiang Ciyou's arm and wanted to leave. Jiang Ciyou did not resist, she also wanted to get rid of this embarrassing situation as soon as possible.

The two walked to a relatively quiet corner, and the husband stopped and turned to look at Jiang Ciyou. "Do you know that man?" he asked again.

Jiang Ciyou shook his head and said, "I really don't know him."

The husband obviously didn't believe her, his eyes were full of anger. "You're still lying to me! Do you think I'm a fool? That man obviously has different feelings for you, how could you not know him?"

Jiang Ciyou didn't know how to explain it. Her heart was filled with helplessness and pain. She didn't want her husband to know about her past with Lu Jingchen. It was a scar in her heart. She once thought she could forget that past, but now, the appearance of Lu Jingchen opened her wounds again.

"I didn't lie to you, I really don't know him." Jiang Ciyou insisted on his statement.

The husband looked into Jiang Ciyou's eyes, trying to find a flaw in her expression. But Jiang Ciyou's expression was only firm and helpless, without a trace of guilt.

"Okay, I'll believe you for now. But if I find out that you're hiding something from me, I will never let you go," the husband warned.

Jiang Ciyou nodded, but her heart was filled with worry. She didn't know whether her husband would continue to investigate Lu Jingchen's identity, nor did she know what he would do if he knew about her and Lu Jingchen's past.

Just then, a waiter came over and handed Jiang Ciyou a glass of wine. "This is a gift from a gentleman," said the waiter.

Jiang Ciyou was shocked. She knew that this glass of wine must be sent by Lu Jingchen. She hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether she should accept the glass of wine.

When the husband saw the wine in the waiter's hand, his face became even uglier. "Who sent it?" he asked.

The waiter pointed in the direction of Lu Jingchen and said, "That gentleman sent it."

The husband looked in the direction the waiter pointed and saw Lu Jingchen. His eyes were full of anger, and he felt that this man was really too much.

"Take the wine away, we don't know him," the husband said to the waiter.

The waiter smiled awkwardly and took the wine away. Jiang Ciyou looked at the waiter's back as he left, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She didn't know why Lu Jingchen gave her the wine, nor did she know what he wanted to do.

The husband looked at Jiang Ciyou and said, "You'd better stay away from that man. I don't want you to have anything to do with him."

Jiang Ciyou nodded and said, "I understand."

But her heart was full of contradictions. She didn't know if she could stay away from Lu Jingchen. She once thought she could forget him, but now, his appearance made her heart ripple again.

Just then, the music started and the dance began. Her husband took Jiang Ciyou's hand and walked towards the dance floor. Jiang Ciyou followed her husband reluctantly, still thinking about Lu Jingchen in her heart.

On the dance floor, the husband hugged Jiang Ciyou's waist tightly, his eyes full of tenderness. "Honey, don't think about that man. Let's enjoy this dance." He said.

Jiang Ciyou nodded, trying to calm herself down, but she couldn't forget Lu Jingchen's figure in her heart.

The party went smoothly, people were dancing on the dance floor, and the atmosphere was very lively. But Jiang Ciyou was absent-minded, and her eyes drifted in the direction of Lu Jingchen from time to time.

Lu Jingchen stood aside, watching Jiang Ciyou and her husband dancing on the dance floor. His eyes were full of complex emotions, including jealousy, pain, and helplessness.

He knew that he shouldn't be here and shouldn't put Jiang Ciyou in an awkward situation. But he couldn't help it. He wanted to see Jiang Ciyou again and wanted to know if she was doing well.

Just then, a woman came over and took Lu Jingchen's arm. "Jingchen, why are you here alone? Let's go dance." The woman said.

Lu Jingchen glanced at the woman, his eyes full of indifference. "I don't want to dance." He said.

The woman looked at Lu Jingchen with some disappointment and said, "Why? Are you unhappy?"

Lu Jingchen did not answer the woman's question, his eyes still stayed on Jiang Ciyou. The woman followed his gaze and saw Jiang Ciyou and her husband.

"Who is that woman? Why are you looking at her?" the woman asked.

Lu Jingchen frowned and said, “It has nothing to do with you.”

The woman looked at Lu Jingchen angrily and said, "How could you do this to me? I'm your girlfriend."

Lu Jingchen glanced at the woman coldly and said, "I have never admitted that you are my girlfriend."

The woman's face turned very ugly. She felt greatly insulted. "You are too much! I have given so much for you, and you treat me like this." She said.

Lu Jingchen ignored the woman's words and turned to leave the dance floor. The woman looked at his leaving back, her heart filled with anger and grievance.

Lu Jingchen walked to a quiet corner and lit a cigarette. He took a deep puff of the cigarette and then slowly exhaled the smoke. His heart was filled with pain and helplessness, and he didn't know how to face Jiang Ciyou.

He knew that he shouldn't disturb Jiang Ciyou's life anymore, but he couldn't control his emotions. He loved Jiang Ciyou and he wanted to be with her.

Just then, Jiang Ciyou's husband came over. He looked at Lu Jingchen with anger in his eyes. "Who are you? Why are you staring at my wife?" he asked.

Lu Jingchen glanced at the man, his eyes full of indifference. "Who I am has nothing to do with you. I just thought your wife was beautiful, so I took a few more glances at her." He said.

The man obviously didn't believe what Lu Jingchen said. He felt that this man must have some ulterior motive. "You'd better stay away from my wife, or I won't let you go." He threatened.

Lu Jingchen smiled and said, "Do you think you can threaten me?"

The man's expression became even uglier. He felt that the man was too arrogant. "Don't be too proud. I have plenty of ways to deal with you." He said.

Lu Jingchen ignored the man's threats and turned away. The man looked at his departing back, his heart filled with anger and helplessness.

He knew that he couldn't let this man get close to Jiang Ciyou, and he had to find a way to protect his wife. He decided to investigate the man's identity after the banquet.

Jiang Ciyou was very worried when she saw her husband and Lu Jingchen arguing. She didn't know what they said to each other, nor did she know if her husband would do anything impulsive.

She wanted to stop them, but she didn't know how to face Lu Jingchen. She could only stand there and watch them silently.

After the dance, people began to leave the party. Jiang Ciyou and her husband were also preparing to leave. When they walked to the door, Jiang Ciyou couldn't help but look back. She saw Lu Jingchen standing in the distance, his eyes full of complicated emotions.

Jiang Ciyou's heart tightened, she quickly turned around and followed her husband out of the banquet. She knew that she could no longer have anything to do with Lu Jingchen, she had to forget him and start her life again.

But her heart was full of contradictions and pain. She didn't know if she could forget Lu Jingchen, nor did she know where her future would go.
