Jing Cheng observed her facial expression and knew that she had gotten the message, so he stopped talking, feigned indifference, and concentrated on driving.

The Lu family’s villa remained the same as it was three years ago. From the grasses and trees in the courtyard to the interior of the house, nothing had changed. However, when Lu Anran came back, it felt like a lifetime had passed.

The only difference was that there was an extra small kitten in the room.

Women liked cute little things, and Lu Anran was no exception. Her eyes suddenly softened…

When Gu Liangchen opened the door and came in, he saw a woman and a cat asleep on the sofa.

The woman had a small face and her cheeks were rosy, but she was too skinny. Nestled like a ball under the blanket, she appeared as pitiful as a homeless stray cat.

Anguish flashed through Gu Liangchen’s face, and the corners of his lips unconsciously curved up a little while leaning over to pick her up.

Lu Anran was sleeping lightly. She had been worried about a lot of things. In a daze, she suddenly felt a black shadow pressing down in front of her, and she reflexively raised her hand to slap him.

He clasped her wrist, then frowned. Her clothes were damp, and her body temperature was astonishingly high.

He stared at her worriedly, and his grim gaze landed on her face. “You have a fever?”

Looking straight at him, Lu Anran pulled her wrist back and sat up. “Are you worried that I’m sick or are you thinking of doing something?”

“You took the initiative to send yourself to my door. Surely, you can’t be bothered with what I have been thinking.”

She was so hostile and on guard against him, but why didn’t she have any vigilance towards those with ulterior motives?

He laughed sarcastically and said, “Didn’t you say that you would do anything to save your dad? So this is how you show your gratitude?” Gu Liangchen shook his head.

Lu Anran opened her mouth to rebut, but no words came out of it. She did say that because she didn’t think that he would really do such a thing.

But now, she seemed to have miscalculated.

Could a person really change? Could they really be capable of doing good towards those who hurt them?

He who never had much patience was surprisingly patient at this moment. He simply stood in place before speaking slowly, “If you don’t want to, I’ll ask someone to take you away. Stop looking for me.”

With that said, he turned around to get the phone. Lu Anran hurriedly crawled over and pressed her hot fingers over his hand that was holding the phone.

Gu Liangchen lowered his eyes and silently watched their hands touching. His demeanor changed.

The next second, he shrugged off, put on that cold expression, and stared at her indifferently.

Lu Anran looked away uncomfortably, then said reluctantly, “I didn’t… I didn’t say

I didn’t want to…”

After saying this, Lu Anran lowered her head and deeply realized what it was like to swallow her pride. Her cheeks, which were already flushed, became even hotter. She bit her lip and decided to bite the bullet. She called him softly again, “Liangchen…”

She had a smile on her face, but her heart felt so uncomfortable that she was about to suffocate. They had genuine feelings for each other in the past, yet he was troubling her like this…

Gu Liangchen slowly pulled away his hand that was holding the phone, and his ears were about to melt from her gentle voice.

He resented himself for being so easy to coax. He was fuming inside, but she easily quelled his anger.

However, the expression on his face was still icy. He pulled out the first-aid kit under the coffee table to find medicines and threw them at her. “Take the medicine first. I’m not interested in a half-dead woman.”

He had seen how fierce this woman was. To retaliate against him, she would even hurt her own flesh and blood. She was even willing to use her own body to achieve her goal.

Lu Anran was already feverish, but she didn’t take the medicine or talk.

He got impatient and threw the kit on the floor. “If you don’t want to save your dad, just keep causing trouble.”
