From the outside, the building looked like an ancient palace, but inside it had a rather modern atmosphere.
Or rather, there was a blend of the modern and the classical.
Stepping into the private room, the first thing that caught one's eye was a large 50-meter long, 20-meter wide swimming pool.
In the middle of the pool, the aquamarine waters shimmered with tiny ripples.
It gave people a strange sense of comfort.
"Mr. Gu, the first floor has a swimming pool, the second floor has a restaurant, bathroom, private movie theater, ping pong tables, and so on," Zhang Fuyang said effusively as he walked ahead of the three.
Seeing Zhang Fuyang being so enthusiastic, Gu Chenan was somewhat stunned.
Damn.
This is different from the plot!
Wasn't he supposed to start mercilessly mocking Lin Yu as soon as he saw Liu Mingrui bring Lin Yu here?
How come when it's me, he's not mocking me...
Thinking of this, Gu Chenan instantly understood.
The fundamental reason was still the difference in status. Although Lin Yu was the protagonist in the novel, he was still an "ordinary person" unknown to others.
Gu Chenan was different. Although he was the villain, he was the young master of a prominent family.
The difference in status between the two was like fireflies compared to the moon, completely on different levels.
So no matter how close Gu Chenan was with the goddess in his heart, Zhang Fuyang absolutely did not dare to show any dissatisfaction.
Even if something happened between Gu Chenan and Liu Mingrui today, he would not show any hint of loss or heartbreak.
This was the unresistible pressure brought by absolute superiority over inferiors.
"Mr. Gu, are you satisfied?"
At this time, Zhang Fuyang looked at Gu Chenan with a fawning smile plastered all over his face.
"It's quite good, not bad," Gu Chenan praised.
Hearing this, Zhang Fuyang was instantly delighted. He looked towards Liu Mingrui and Su Qianmo.
"Ms. Liu, Ms. Su, do you two find it satisfactory?"
"It's great, Old Zhang," Liu Mingrui said with a smile.
Su Qianmo, who always had an icy expression in front of outsiders, just nodded slightly without saying a word.
But her meaning was very clear - she was also very satisfied.
Seeing that all three had expressed their satisfaction, Zhang Fuyang was so happy that his mouth was about to reach his hairline.
He rubbed his hands obsequiously and said, "Mr. Gu, I won't bother you anymore. If you need anything, just let me know anytime and I will personally deliver it."
"Alright, thanks," Gu Chenan nodded.
After Zhang Fuyang said a few more polite words, he left the private room and thoughtfully closed the door.
Standing on the lawn in front of the private room, Zhang Fuyang looked back once more, then wiped his face with both hands as his eyes became resolute.
Ms. Liu, although I, Zhang Fuyang, have always liked you, you're with Mr. Gu now.
I and Mr. Gu are as different as cloud and mud. Just seeing Mr. Gu gives me a feeling of self-abasement.
I'll just keep my feelings buried in my heart.
Thinking thus, Zhang Fuyang strode over to a maid responsible for Gu Chenan's private room.
"You, pay attention later," he said, pointing his thumb at the private room behind him, "The people inside are Mr. Gu, Ms. Liu and Ms. Su."
"If they need anything, notify me directly and I will personally deliver it."
Upon hearing this, the maid immediately became highly alert. "Understood, Director Zhang!"
...
Standing in front of the swimming pool, Gu Chenan looked at Su Qianmo, then at Liu Mingrui.
Seeing that both of them just stood there without any reaction, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Aren't you going to strip?"
Strip?!
The two women were shocked at the same time.
What was Mr. Gu trying to do?
Could it be... no way!
"Here?" Liu Mingrui frowned.
A blush crept up on Su Qianmo's face as she rubbed her fingers together, somewhat embarrassed.
Gu Chenan: ?
[What kind of reaction is this from them?]
[Aren't you going to change into swimwear to swim?]
[What the hell kind of reaction is this?]
"What, you're just going to jump in wearing that?" Gu Chenan frowned.
Hearing Gu Chenan's inner voice, both women breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
If it was just being alone with Gu Chenan, doing those kinds of things would be fine.
But the three of them together was absolutely out of the question.
However, just as they were about to go change into swimwear after figuring this out, they froze again at the same time.
They had come to swim on a spur of the moment today, and none of them had brought swimwear.
"Did you bring a swimsuit?" Liu Mingrui asked.
"No," Gu Chenan shook his head.
"Alright, I'll tell Old Zhang to send them over," Liu Mingrui said, already opening her phone to send Zhang Fuyang a WeChat message.
[Tsk tsk... I wonder what kind of swimsuits Zhang Fuyang can get for these two ladies.]
[Ah, I really want to see what these two look like wearing a skin tight one piece swimsuit with thigh high socks!]
[Oh~ I feel like I've contracted a disease where I'll die if I don't get to see Su Qianmo and Liu Mingrui wearing skin tight swimsuits!]
Gu Chenan's inner voice appeared, and both women were taken aback.
The corners of Liu Mingrui's mouth curled up slightly.
Oh you Gu Chenan.
Just now you made it seem like you didn't even want to come, and were even upset at me.
But now you have such a lecherous face?
Tsk tsk tsk, words and actions are contradictory huh?
Well since you put it that way, big sis will graciously let you take a look!
Liu Mingrui looked at Su Qianmo and asked, "Sis Su, I don't like wearing swimsuits that are too revealing, so I'm going to get a skin tight one piece. What about you?"
Hearing this, Su Qianmo's brows furrowed slightly.
How could Liu Mingrui say she wanted to wear what Mr. Gu wanted to see? And claim she didn't like revealing swimsuits? Though skin tight swimsuits weren't very revealing, but they were still sexy as hell!
Wait... No!
Could Liu Mingrui also hear Mr. Gu's inner voice?
Su Qianmo was a little confused, but still nodded and said, "Then... I also want a skin tight swimsuit, and tell him to bring a pair of black lace thigh-high socks too."
Gu Chenan: ?
I'll be damned!
Do Su Qianmo and I have some kind of spiritual connection? How did she know that I wanted to see skin tight swimsuits paired with thigh high socks?!
No wait, the skin tight swimsuit thing was brought up by Liu Mingrui.
So does Liu Mingrui also share a spiritual connection with me?
Thinking of this, Gu Chenan glanced at Liu Mingrui's white thigh-high socks and suddenly understood a lot more.
I see how it is!
Su Qianmo must also know the allure of pairing skin tight swimsuits with thigh high socks. Seeing Liu Mingrui wearing white thigh high socks, she must have been afraid Liu Mingrui would have me wrapped around her finger. That's why she wanted to wear them herself too.
Tsk tsk tsk~ Impressive.
You two battling it out, I'll be enjoying the show! Awesome!
Whereas hearing Su Qianmo's words, Liu Mingrui was also shocked.
How did she know Gu Chenan just said he wanted to see skin tight swimsuits paired with thigh high socks?
Could it be...
She can also hear Mr. Gu's inner voice?
Liu Mingrui frowned at the blushing Su Qianmo.
No!
If she could hear Mr. Gu's inner voice, how could she possibly not know he didn't want to marry her?
With Su Qianmo's aloof personality, if she knew Mr. Gu didn't want to marry her, she would definitely have left first.
Perhaps Mr. Gu had told Su Qianmo before that he liked skin tight swimsuits paired with thigh high socks.
That must be it!

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining.

His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
