Tang Pengze was supposed to be in the office working on some documents. He looked down at his watch and guessed that Lin Chaoyu should have woken up by this time, so he called Auntie Zhang directly. However, he heard the news that Lu Xi and Zhang Xiaoya had come home. Tang Pengze thought about how Lin Chaoyu had been drugged last night and could not help but feel annoyed. He was afraid that Lin Chaoyu would be bullied again, so he could only put down his work and rush home.

However, there was no one in the living room.

“President Tang, Miss Lin and Miss Lu are at the pool,” Auntie Zhang said respectfully to Tang Pengze.

Tang Pengze immediately walked over, and the bodyguards behind him followed. At this moment, Lu Xi had fallen into the water. Her whole body was wet, and she looked at Lin Chaoyu angrily. Suddenly, she saw Tang Pengze’s figure from the corner of her eye. She quickly put away her anger and pretended to be frightened as she cried for help.

Tang Pengze came to the side of the pool and saw this scene. He ordered the bodyguards to rescue Lu Xi immediately. After the bodyguards rescued the wet Lu Xi, they prepared to help her sit on the chair to rest. Lu Xi immediately jumped into Tang Pengze’s arms and wrapped her arms around Tang Pengze’s narrow waist. Her wet black hair was dripping with water, and her sickly face was even paler. Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked up at Tang Pengze and sobbed.

“Ah Ze, I’m just here to see how Ms. Lin is doing. I don’t know what I said wrong to make Ms. Lin unhappy, but she pushed me into the water.” After saying that, she started sobbing again, as if she had been wronged.

Lin Chaoyu saw Lu Xi’s pitiful expression and could not help but freeze on the spot. Her red lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to explain something. However, when she saw the two of them snuggling together intimately, her heart ached and she shut her mouth without saying anything.

“I can’t catch a cold. Otherwise, my life will be in danger. Ah Ze, don’t blame Miss Lin. I was wrong,” Lu Xi said. Her face turned even paler as her body stuck to Tang Pengze closely.

The moment Lu Xi touched Tang Pengze, he could not help but feel disgusted and filled with resistance. Tang Pengze suddenly missed the smell on Lin Chaoyu’s body. Only she would not make Tang Pengze feel uncomfortable. Instead, he felt intoxicated and mesmerized by her.

Due to the marital agreement between the two families, Tang Pengze did not throw her onto the ground immediately. He wanted to push Lu Xi away without leaving a trace and was prepared to instruct the bodyguards to send Miss Lu home.

Lin Chaoyu saw that Tang Pengze didn’t even look at her. She believed that she was innocent, but when she saw Tang Pengze ignore her, she felt even more aggrieved. It was as if she was an outsider. Her heart couldn’t help but ache even more, and even her head felt a little dizzy. She turned around and prepared to leave to return to her room to rest.

As she brushed past the two of them, Lin Chaoyu rubbed her temples. She wanted to chase the image of the two of them out of her mind.

Zhang Xiaoya stood behind Lu Xi and Tang Pengze. She thought that Tang Pengze would get angry and chase Lin Chaoyu out immediately. However, Tang Pengze did not say anything. Zhang Xiaoya was angry. Seeing that Lin Chaoyu was about to leave safely, the hatred in her eyes became even more intense. Hence, when she brushed past Lin Chaoyu, she stuck out her leg mischievously…

“Ah!” Suddenly, a startled cry came from behind Tang Pengze..
