The only SSSS-level fertility constitution in the entire interstellar space
Chapter 116 Lu Yao's Special Nature.
Ji Shan, the most beloved youngest daughter of the Ji family in this generation.
The Ji family has deep roots in the Federation's power structure. Although they are not as arrogant as the Qin family at their peak, they have a solid foundation and act more tactfully and cautiously.
Ji Shan herself is known for her "genuine personality," but in reality, she is spoiled and willful, a fact well-known within the industry.
It was no secret that the Ji family wanted to arrange a walking marriage with the Zhou family. However, Zhou Jinlu suffered from misogyny and was allergic to women. Ji Shan, as the most likely candidate for a walking marriage with him, was rejected multiple times.
Seeing him and Lu Yao so intimately, arm in arm, with Zhou Jinlu acting as if nothing was wrong, was simply too glaring.
Ji Shan raised her slender eyebrows and looked Lu Yao up and down, her gaze like that of someone assessing a commodity waiting to be sold. "When did President Zhou become so concerned about his 'partners' in the entertainment industry? He even personally accompanies them to social events."
The gazes of those around them became subtle; after all, there's no shortage of onlookers wherever there's a spectacle.
A hint of impatience flashed in Zhou Jinlu's eyes. He shielded Lu Yao behind him, a subtle movement that showed how much he cared about her.
This was even more displeasing to Ji Shan.
Before she could speak, Zhou Jinlu said, "When did Miss Ji become so interested in Xingwen Entertainment? Miss Lu Yao is exceptionally talented, so of course I value her. Why do I need to report this to Miss Ji? What is our relationship? Please, Miss Ji, have some self-respect."
Ji Shan was shocked that Zhou Jinlu not only protected others, but also asked about their relationship: "What do you mean, Zhou Jinlu? You haven't forgotten that our two families have an agreement!"
"That's just wishful thinking on your part, the Ji family. Our Zhou family has never agreed to it. Do I need to make myself clearer?" Zhou Jinlu had one hand in his pocket, a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold and impatient.
Clearly, he didn't have a good impression of Ji Shan.
Ji Shan was so angry that her face turned red and her chest heaved violently after Zhou Jinlu publicly and mercilessly humiliated her.
She has never been treated like this before.
Seeing Zhou Jinlu protecting Lu Yao behind him, in such a protective posture, jealousy and resentment instantly overwhelmed him.
"Wishful thinking? Zhou Jinlu, don't forget, without the Ji family, would your Zhou family's expansion in the new energy sector have been so smooth!" Ji Shan retorted sharply, disregarding the occasion and decorum, she stepped forward and reached out to grab Zhou Jinlu's arm, seemingly trying to pull him away from Lu Yao, "You have to make things clear today, what exactly is this woman..."
Her words stopped abruptly.
Just as her fingers were about to touch Zhou Jinlu's sleeve, Zhou Jinlu suddenly took half a step back, his brows furrowed, the gentle smile on his face vanished completely, and his light brown eyes were filled with disgust and resistance.
It was as if she were some kind of filthy thing!
Almost simultaneously, Lu Yao, who was being protected behind him, clearly saw that Zhou Jinlu's exposed neck and the back of his hands were rapidly turning an abnormal red at a visible speed, followed by a dense patch of red rashes.
The whole process was incredibly fast, taking only a few seconds.
"President Zhou!" Lu Yao was startled and subconsciously stepped forward, but Zhou Jinlu slightly blocked her with his other hand.
"I'm fine." Zhou Jinlu's tone remained gentle and calm when facing Lu Yao, but when he turned to Ji Shan, his tone became cold, "Miss Ji, please don't come near me. Your touch makes me feel uncomfortable."
Ji Shan stared blankly at the red rashes on Zhou Jinlu's exposed skin, refusing to believe that his condition was caused by her.
At this moment, the people around Zhou Jinlu noticed his abnormality and quickly came over to ask, "Mr. Zhou, do you need us to call a doctor?"
"No need, please find me a lounge, thank you."
After Zhou Jinlu finished speaking, the organizers quickly made arrangements.
While waiting, Zhou Jinlu patted Lu Yao's hand reassuringly: "It's not a big problem, don't be nervous."
Lu Yao nodded, relieved to see that apart from the allergic rash, he had no other abnormalities.
It also made her realize that Zhou Jinlu's allergy to women's touch was not just talk.
In fact, she had just seen it clearly: Ji Shan hadn't touched him at all; her fingertips had merely brushed against his sleeve, yet it had caused him to react so strongly.
Ji Shan's eyes reddened at the scene, and she glared at Zhou Jinlu: "Zhou Jinlu, you did this on purpose, didn't you? Why is it that she can touch you without any problems, but I get an allergic reaction when I touch her?"
"Yes, why should I?" Zhou Jinlu chuckled lightly, following her words. "Can't you see? Miss Ji, I like her, so it's fine for her to touch me however she wants. But Miss Ji's touch only makes me feel uncomfortable. Do you understand now, Miss Ji? If you do, I hope you won't bother me anymore."
Faced with Zhou Jinlu's sudden confession, Lu Yao's cheeks instantly turned red.
But he didn't say anything.
Ji Shan, however, couldn't accept it at all. With red eyes, she yelled at Zhou Jinlu, "You bastard!"
Then she lifted her skirt and ran away.
Watching the other person's departing figure, Zhou Jinlu's eyes were filled with only indifference and disgust.
The organizers quickly provided them with a lounge. After accompanying him to the lounge, Lu Yao looked at the red rash on his exposed skin and asked with some concern, "Are you sure you don't need to see a doctor?"
Zhou Jinlu shook his head, took out a medicine bottle from his pocket, poured out a few white pills, and swallowed them.
"Don't worry, you'll feel better soon after taking the medicine. Did I scare you?"
"It's not really scary, I just didn't expect that you were actually allergic to women. I thought it was just a rumor before." Lu Yao poured him a glass of water.
Zhou Jinlu reached out and took it, then smiled slightly: "It's a psychological issue."
Lu Yao nodded, not asking what caused it; they weren't in a relationship where she could freely pry into someone's privacy.
"You should take a rest."
Zhou Jinlu suddenly extended his hand: "Can we shake hands for a moment?"
Lu Yao was slightly taken aback, not quite understanding why he made such a request.
"Because Miss Lu Yao's touch makes me feel very comfortable, the rash will disappear faster."
"Are you kidding me?"
Seeing her disbelief, Zhou Jinlu chuckled lightly, his eyes serious: "I'm not joking. If you don't believe me, you can try."
Lu Yao hesitated for a moment, then slowly reached out and gently placed her hand in his palm.
Almost the instant she grasped his hand, the visible red rashes on Zhou Jinlu's exposed skin gradually subsided. About ten minutes later, the rashes had almost completely disappeared, leaving only a few faint red marks.
Lu Yao's eyes widened, feeling somewhat incredulous: "It really has subsided."
