After handing the keys to the valet, Li Mu extended his arm and said, "Let's go, beautiful lady, let's have lunch together first, so we'll have the energy to celebrate properly this afternoon."

Gan Hong hesitated for a moment, then seemed to remember something. Her face flushed slightly as she gently took the arm of the person inside and walked into the hotel lobby.

……

In the evening, Li Mu and Gan Hong went downstairs to the restaurant for dinner.

Gan Hong said, half complaining and half angry, "It's all your fault! It's almost dark, and I need to go home soon!"

Li Mu gently moved his hand on her waist: "Go home, which home? Yu Huanshui's home? Or your parents' home?"

Gan Hong remained silent for a moment. She had just packed her luggage that morning and stormed out of the house, telling Yu Huanshui to stay home and reflect on his actions. She knew she couldn't go back now.

Going to her parents' home is just as busy as it is for a nanny, so she usually doesn't want to go back.

Especially now that it's already dark, if I go back, my parents will definitely ask me all sorts of questions.

Gan Hong asked, "Then what should we do?"

Li Mu said, "What should we do? It's easy, we can just stay at a hotel tonight. Don't worry, I'll stay here with you."

Gan Hong glared at him: "You scoundrel!"

……

After dinner, I returned to my room.

Gan Hong seemed to have figured it out. Suddenly, she hugged Li Mu's neck and said gently, "What do you think about me divorcing Yu Huanshui?"

Li Mu said, "Let's get a divorce then. You two are not on the same wavelength. The sooner you leave, the cleaner it will be."

Gan Hong kissed Li Mu: "Then I really want a divorce, and you have to take responsibility..."

Li Mu lifted her chin and kissed her: "No problem, I'll take care of you if we divorce."

Seeing the joy on Gan Hong's face, Li Mu poured cold water on her enthusiasm: "However, let me make it clear beforehand, I don't plan to get married!"

These words made Gan Hong's face change; she felt she had been tricked, and she opened her mouth to bite Li Mu: "Scumbag..."

Fortunately, Li Mu reacted quickly and seized her weakness, turning Gan Hong's anger into tenderness.

After everything was over, Li Mu stroked the delicate skin in his arms, thinking about his next target. He remembered that Lu Fumeng's girlfriend, the painter Tang Yun, was quite pretty.

Chapter 505 Artist's Temperament

On the other side, watching Gan Hong leave without looking back, Yu Huanshui slumped onto the sofa, rubbed his hair, and dialed Lü Fumeng's phone again, but no one answered, and no one replied to his WeChat messages.

In the afternoon, after accompanying Yu Chen to the amusement park and returning home, Yu Huanshui called Lü Fumeng again, but no one answered. Just then, Yu Chen was tired from playing at the amusement park, so Yu Huanshui coaxed his son back to his room to sleep, then hailed a taxi and drove to Lü Fumeng's residence.

When we arrived at the destination, we still couldn't find anyone. We made several phone calls, but no one answered.

Yu Huanshui had no idea what had happened to Lü Fumeng or why things were going on like this. He was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to stay or leave. In the end, he simply went to a nearby convenience store, bought a bottle of water and a piece of bread, and sat there eating while waiting.

Yu Huanshui waited until it was almost dark, then, thinking of his son being home alone, he decided not to wait any longer and was about to go back when his phone suddenly rang.

Upon picking it up, I was surprised to find it was the Lu Fumeng that I had been waiting for.

Yu Huanshui, full of complaints with nowhere to vent, sighed and said, "Lu Fumeng... what's wrong with you!"

Lu Fumeng pretended to be serious and said, "Oh, buddy, I'm so sorry! I left my phone at the service center while I was handling my paperwork for going abroad today. I just got it back."

"So, have you chosen a car yet?"

Yu Huanshui said helplessly, "What are you choosing for! You...you're so unreliable...my wife is about to divorce me."

Lu Fumeng said, "Give the phone to your wife, and I'll explain to her." Gan Hong was currently glued to someone and couldn't possibly answer his call.

Yu Huanshui sighed and said, "How do you explain this? My wife was so angry that she went back to her parents' house."

Lu Fumeng casually said, "Is it really that big of a deal? Your wife is so rude! We've already agreed that once you've chosen the car, I'll pay for it right away."

Yu Huanshui said angrily, "I've made my selection and am waiting for you, but I can't get in touch with you at all! The salesperson is waiting to sign the contract, and I've made a huge fool of myself today."

Lü Fumeng said, "I forgot my phone. If you can't, you can pay a deposit first and reserve the car."

Yu Huanshui said, "What am I supposed to order? Where would I get the money to order? If I had that money, I would just buy it directly. There's no point in you saying all this. Forget it, just give me back my 130,000 yuan."

Lü Fumeng said matter-of-factly, "Then it might be too late, I have to fly to Africa in a bit."

Yu Huanshui asked anxiously, "What are you going to Africa for?"

Lü Fumeng said, "Tang Yun is having a solo exhibition, right? Her sponsor insists that she paint a series of paintings with African themes."

"There's no other way. Time is tight and the task is heavy, so I can only accompany her on her sketching trip. I'm sorry, old classmate."

Yu Huanshui said impatiently, "Then I'll come find you now?"

Lü Fumeng said, "I already said we're going to Africa. We're already on the airport expressway. You can hear it if you don't believe me..."

He honked his horn and said, "Did you hear that? I didn't expect there to be so many cars on the airport expressway at this hour."

Yu Huanshui asked, "When are you coming back?"

Lü Fumeng gave an irrelevant answer: "Let me tell you, you must not be stingy with money, you can't buy a cheap car!"

"You can just stay home and choose a car. I'll contact you as soon as I get back from Africa."

That's all for now, goodbye.

Yu Huanshui wanted to say something more, but the other end hung up. He called back, but no one answered.

Dejected, Yu Huanshui walked onto the street, intending to hail a taxi, but ultimately chose to take the bus. Halfway there, the bus passed the Park Hyatt Hotel. Yu Huanshui, who had been staring blankly out the window, suddenly saw a familiar figure flash before his eyes—it seemed to be his wife, Gan Hong.

When I tried to look again, the bus had already passed that section of road, blocking my view, and I could no longer see it.

Yu Huanshui thought that his wife had gone back to her parents' home, so she wouldn't be here. He guessed she must have mistaken him for someone else, and shook his head helplessly.

His most important task now is to get the debt back from Lü Fumeng so that he can gain his wife's forgiveness and bring her back from her parents' home.

However, thinking that Lü Fumeng had gone to Africa and didn't know when he would return, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Meanwhile, it wasn't until the afternoon of the following day that Li Mu and Gan Hong came out of the mall carrying large and small bags before taking her back to her parents' home.

Gan Hong was actually a little reluctant to leave, after all, going back to her parents' home meant becoming a nanny, while following Li Mu meant having plenty of food, drink, and money to spend, and living a very happy life.

At her current age, she's become increasingly pragmatic.

If she hadn't had to pick up her son from school that afternoon and had to go back to her parents' home, she really wouldn't have wanted to leave.

Over the next few days, Li Mu would occasionally meet up with Gan Hong to exchange ideas and study English. At the same time, he hired a private investigator to investigate Tang Yun's personal information and whereabouts.

As a painter with some degree of fame, Tang Yun's information and whereabouts were easy to investigate and were quickly obtained.

Li Mu went to the mall, picked out several outfits that gave him an artist's air, and bought several sets of painting tools. After practicing at home for two days, his skill level had recovered to about 70-80%.

In the world of "search," he is a wandering painter who is also a graduate of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. He has a solid foundation and a high level of skill. He wanders all over the country by selling his paintings.

In this high-temperature world, as a photographer who graduated from an art academy, I am highly skilled and also have a lot of artistic talent.

Add to that his experiences in other worlds, and faking himself as an artist is too easy. In fact, it's not even a disguise; it's something he already possesses, just something he doesn't usually show.

……

That day, Li Mu and Gan Hong came out of the hotel.

Li Mu said, "Where are you going? I'll take you there."

Gan Hong said, "Just deliver it to the vicinity of my mother's neighborhood."

Li Mu said, "Why not have it delivered directly to my home?"

Gan Hong gave him a playful glare: "I'm Yu Huanshui's wife, not yours. If you drop me off at my doorstep, what am I going to say when the neighbors ask? They'll think I'm unfaithful!"

Li Mu patted her shapely buttocks: "You never really upheld the virtues of a wife, did you?"

Gan Hong was struck where it hurt by these words, and gritted her teeth: "Bastard, scumbag... isn't it all your fault?" As she spoke, she angrily reached out to scratch him.

Li Mu dodged her and chuckled, saying, "Let's go. This is the hotel entrance; be careful not to be mistaken for a shrew."

Gan Hong got even angrier: "You're the shrew! You bastard... you took advantage of me and then made sarcastic remarks."

Li Mu shrugged: "Don't say that. Men and women are equal. No one loses out in this kind of thing. It's a win-win situation for both of you. Double the happiness, don't you want to enjoy it?"

Gan Hong blushed at his words. If she hadn't been so smitten, she wouldn't have continued her relationship with Li Mu. Now, not only had she forgotten about her husband, Yu Huanshui, but her so-called first love, whom she had initially met and who had stirred up memories and even had a bit of an ambiguous relationship with, was long forgotten after Li Mu's interference!

She spat at Li Mu, cursed him as a hooligan, and strode forward in her crisp high heels.

After dropping Gan Hong off at home, he changed into an outfit that exuded artistic flair and then drove off again.

A couple of days ago, he got an invitation through some channels to a gathering of local artists, which Tang Yun also received and is said to be attending.

Is there a more natural and suitable opportunity for communication than this?

When Li Mu arrived at the location, most of the people were already there, including Tang Yun. Li Mu didn't immediately approach them but instead blended into the crowd. He rarely interacted with this kind of circle and was quite curious.

The result was quite different from what he had imagined. It wasn't the kind of high-end cocktail party where men and women, dressed in suits and cheongsams, with impeccable makeup, would stroll around the hall, chatting and making connections, sipping red wine.

It was really just a gathering within the circle. Everyone gathered together to appreciate the works, discuss their creative feelings and experiences, and the atmosphere was quite nice.

When it was Li Mu's turn to speak, he was not intimidated. After all, he had experienced so much of the world and was a graduate of the prestigious Central Academy of Fine Arts, so his own skills were quite high.

Furthermore, they were learning painting concepts from a different world. Although the main themes were the same, the branches and details were always different. Whether commenting on works or discussing creative feelings and experiences, many of their words were refreshing. Even the way they looked at Li Mu changed; they no longer ignored him because he was a newcomer.

Tang Yun's eyes also lit up as she watched. Li Mu's words had resonated with her, and she wanted to find an opportunity to exchange ideas.

After Li Mu finished speaking, he nodded to everyone, found a place to sit down, and was greeted with enthusiastic applause. After a brief discussion of Li Mu's views, another person went up to speak and share their own perspective.
