"Nanyan, your husband is laying next to another woman, and there you are, still able to sleep? Are you not afraid that the position as Madam Lu's might slip from your hands?"

In the villa's bedroom.

Qin Haiyun scolded with disappointment, upon which Gu Nanyan, wiping the sleep from her eyes, questioned, "Mom, which little fox has seduced him tonight?"

Being married for two years; the outside women queued for her to step down, and her mother-in-law constantly urged her to catch him in the act. Gu Nanyan had long grown accustomed to this.

However, each attempt was a big swing and a miss, without any confirmed proof of Lu Beicheng's wrongdoings.

"I'll text you the hotel room number on WeChat. Go and drag him back." After a pause, Qin Haiyun added, "Child, if you continue not giving Beicheng your attention, I won't be able to help you."

Not giving him attention?

Lu Beicheng should at least be giving her the opportunity!

Throughout those two years, he rarely came home, and every time they met, it ended with a falling out.

He avoided her like the plague, how was she supposed to give him the attention?

It wasn't always like this between her and Lu Beicheng. He used to treat her well, yield to her, but after that one time, their relationship turned sour.

After a moment of silence with her eyes closed.

Gu Nanyan propped up her body and said lazily, "Mom, I understood, send me the address!"

---

Half an hour later.

When Gu Nanyan received the room card from the hotel manager, Zhou Bei had also arrived.

They both reached the entrance of the suite.

As Gu Nanyan was preparing to unlock the door with the card, his previously calm heart was now somewhat uncomfortable.

Even though he was used to this kind of situation, it's still his own thing being taken away, which made him feel uneasy.

The door opened, a voice from inside says, "Four bars."

"..." Both of them were rendered speechless.

Wasn't this supposed to be an affair scene, why are they playing mahjong?

The young girls sitting next to the men were still somewhat discomforting.

Especially Lu Beicheng, a cigarette hanging from his mouth, his right hand caressing the mahjong tiles. Ye Chujiao was clinging to his arm, sitting next to him.

The men at the mahjong table were all the cream of the crop from City A, the best among men.

Lu Beicheng was still the most attention-grabbing one, with a very handsome face. He wore a pair of golden-rimmed glasses on his bridge and his hair was casually styled to the back.

He was elegant but carried a bit of a raspy aura, no matter how many times you look at him, he is always stunning.

Given his good looks, it was not a matter of him needing to pay for women, countless women would be willing to spend all their assets for him.

After Lu Beicheng took over the Lu Corporation, it became the leader in City A, everyone would give him due respect.

If he was still like in the past, if not for that one incident, Lu Beicheng would have been the perfect husband in the world.

Lu Beicheng was good in all aspects, except when it came to her.

Facing the door, Su Mubai saw Gu Nanyan coming and was initially startled, then smiling, he raised a hand as if to wave, "Brother's wife..."

Before he could finish, Lu Beicheng shot him a chilling glance. Su Mubai hurriedly changed his address, "Yan, what brings you here?"

Gu Nanyan, with a composed smile emerging on her face, strolled in at a leisurely pace, "I missed you, so I came to check on you."

"No! Bro...," Sneaking a glance at Lu Beicheng, Su Mubai quickly altered his words, "Yan, I can't handle your jokes. "

No need to say, she's definitely here to cause trouble for his third brother.

They've all gotten accustomed to this over the last couple of years.

He couldn't comprehend why his brother would neglect such a beautiful wife at home.

Today, Gu Nanyan was wearing a knee-length V-neck black dress, her waterfall-like shiny black hair cascading haphazardly, each strand emanating an undeniable aura.

As she gracefully approached the mahjong table, the other girls in the room were absolutely awestruck.

Witnessing her arrival, Ye Chu let go of Lu Beicheng's arm and stood to greet, "Nanyan."

Gu Nanyan ignored her and glanced at Lu Beicheng's arm. The second she did, Ye Chu hurriedly explained, "Beicheng just won a round, I was pleased for him, so..."

Before Ye Chu could finish, Gu Nanyan abruptly gripped her wrist, "Ye Chu, if you touch him again, I will chop off your hand."

"Nanyan, listen to me..." Ye Chu was wringing her eyebrows, "Nanyan, it hurts. You're pinching me too hard."

Ye Chu's call, Lu Beicheng looked coldly at Gu Nanyan: "If you don't let her go, I'll chop off your hand first."

At this time, Ye Chu managed to break free from Gu Nanyan, took two small steps backward, rubbing her wrist, her eyes glistening: "Beicheng."

Lu Beicheng turned to glance at her, his eyes expressionless: "Why are you frightened of her? Sit down."

The girl next to Su Mubai noticed the tense atmosphere, and curiously asked Lu Beicheng: "Mr. Cheng, who is she?"

With a wisp of smoke curling around his gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, Lu Beicheng elegantly tapped off some ash: "Don't know her."

Once these words fell, Su Mubai and the others were all shocked.

Don't know her?

They clearly knew each other, and had for 23 years.

This year, Gu Nanyan was exactly 23 years old.

By the mahjong table, Gu Nanyan was both annoyed and amused.

Regardless, she still approached Lu Beicheng and gently reminded: "It's half past two, time to wrap up."

With a cigarette held in his right hand, Lu Beicheng remained refined: "I win by self-draw, thirteen orphans."

It was as though, Gu Nanyan was a puff of air.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Ye Chu stepped up to ease the situation: "Nanyan, it's in a man's nature to love to play. Mubai and the others are all here, you really don't need to worry much."

Gu Nanyan laughed: "Why don't you get married first, and lend me your husband to play with?"

"......" Ye Chu was left speechless by her retort.

Finished speaking, Gu Nanyan turned her back and walked over to Su Mubai. She tapped the mahjong table with her fingers, and said in a light tone, "Mubai, stand up."

Su Mubai looked up, "Sister Yan, do you also want to play?"

Beside them, Zhou Bei, who had come to catch the unfaithful party along with Gu Nanyan and had been silent all the while, suddenly laughed and said, "What's the matter? Only men can play, women can't?"

She had short-haired looks and was wearing a Japanese-style floral shirt. If you didn't know better, you'd have thought she was a man, and Gu Nanyan’s lover.

After saying this, she turned to look at Gu Nanyan again, "Nanyan, I heard that the young men from this hotel club are quite good, would you like me to call a couple for you?"

While Su Mubai vacated his seat, Gu Nanyan took it as if nothing happened, “Sure!”

Just then, the gaze of Lu Beicheng finally fell on her face.

Ignoring Lu Beicheng, Gu Nanyan continued Su Mubai’s move, “Three of Circles.”

It wasn’t long before a group of handsome young men stood in the suite’s living room, Zhou Bei ordered the tallest and handsomest among them to accompany Gu Nanyan.

Upon receiving his task, the boy with a big smile sat next to Gu Nanyan, "Ma'am, I'm your lucky charm. With me by your side, you're sure to win."

Gu Nanyan laughed, "If I win, I will give you a big red envelope."

Sure enough after a few rounds, it was only Gu Nanyan who was winning. Most embarrassingly, she would pass everyone else's card, but every time Lu Beicheng dealt a card, she would trump him.

So, needless to say, Lu Beicheng's face was something to behold.

After obtaining a Thirteen Orphans hand again, Lu Beicheng slammed the mahjong tiles in his hand on the table in frustration.

His face was so cold, it could've frozen the air around him.

Gu Nan Yan didn't pay much attention, she eyed the mahjong tiles in the shuffling machine jokingly and taunted, "Can't afford to lose, Master Lu? If you can't take a loss, why not go home and get some sleep?"

Gu Nan Yan proposing him to sleep off his loss made Lu Bei Cheng chuckle, "Dreaming of sleeping with me? You're reaching for the stars, Gu Nan Yan."

After Lu Bei Cheng's derision, Ye Chu cautiously glanced at Gu Nan Yan, wondering - Would they divorce over this?

Ignoring Lu Bei Cheng's sarcasm, Gu Nan Yan handed over her winnings to the boy next to her, "Consider this a red envelope from your sister."

The boy excitedly accepted the cash Gu Nan Yan handed over, "Thank you, sister."

In the room, the eyes of the other girls sparkled with envy immediately.

After accepting Gu Nan Yan's money, the boy suddenly blushed and said to Gu Nan Yan, "Sis, I can make you happier. Why don't I go home with you tonight?"

After the boy said this, the cigarette in Su Mu Bai's mouth dropped to the ground with a pop, and everyone else also looked over.

At that moment, the room became incredibly quiet. So quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
