On your wedding night, stay with your godbrother; the Empress is practically throwing herself at you

After thinking about it for a long time without figuring it out, Lu Chuan gave up trying.

Anyway, nothing was lost, but I was confused by my own actions, so it was a lesson learned.

As for how to deal with this girl...

Report to the enforcement team?

Too troublesome.

I have to give a statement so late at night.

Throw her out?

If the community security guards see it and think it's because they've disposed of a body, it will be even harder to explain.

"never mind."

Lu Chuan stood up and clapped his hands.

"Just let her sleep here."

"Anyway, the floor is pretty cool, so I probably won't sleep too soundly."

Lu Chuan made the decision rather carelessly.

Then he got up, picked up Wukong, and left.

Before leaving, he made sure to close the bedroom door and then relock the keypad lock on the main door.

"Click".

As the door lock clicked shut.

Lu Chuan hummed a little tune as he went home.

As for how this girl will react when she wakes up tomorrow morning...

Who cares?

As long as you don't steal my rice, I don't care what you do.

……

The next morning.

Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, piercing the dimly lit bedroom like a sharp sword.

"Well……"

In the corner.

Su Ling'er let out a painful groan.

She felt like her head wasn't even her own.

It was swollen and painful, as if it could explode at any moment.

I finally managed to open my eyes with great difficulty, and my vision remained blurry for a long time afterward...

Only then did we gradually focus.

An unfamiliar ceiling.

An unfamiliar crystal chandelier.

and also……

The floor was rock hard.

"Where am I...?"

Su Ling'er covered her head and struggled to sit up.

Memories flooded back like a tide.

Last night... I sneaked into Liu Fuyao's house... and then...

A terrifying roar!

A horde of monsters!

There was also a golden giant whose face was obscured!

"what!"

Su Ling'er shuddered again in fright, instinctively shrinking back until her back slammed heavily against the wall.

pain.

But the pain also made her more alert.

She looked around in a panic.

There were no monsters, no giants.

In the quiet and tidy bedroom, sunlight streamed onto the floor, and everything seemed so peaceful and serene.

"Was it a dream?"

"Or is it a hallucination?"

Su Ling'er gasped for breath, but her back was already soaked in cold sweat.

The fear of being on the verge of death was so real that it still makes her hands and feet go cold when she thinks about it.

"Xiao Qing!"

"Xiao Qing!"

She suddenly remembered something.

Soon, Xiaoqing appeared beside his legs.

Poor Xiaoqing has fainted again.

"Xiaoqing, don't scare me..."

Su Ling'er was heartbroken and held Xiao Qing in her hands, trying to communicate with her using her mental power.

Fortunately, it was just that I had overexerted my mental energy and fell into a deep sleep.

"This is not a place to linger!"

The thought flashed through Su Ling'er's mind.

Whether last night's events were an illusion or a trap, this place is too eerie.

We must leave immediately!

She struggled to her feet, her legs still a little weak.

Walk to the window.

I opened the window and looked down.

Eighteenth floor.

The wind was blowing fiercely.

The car below is as big as a matchbox.

Su Ling'er swallowed.

If it were Xiaoqing, it would be alright if she were awake.

But now Xiaoqing is unconscious.

Although she is a martial arts master, she hasn't learned to fly yet. If she jumps down, she will die instantly.

"Damn it!"

"We can only use the main entrance."

With no other option, she turned around and closed the window.

He carefully tucked Xiaoqing into his pocket, trying his best to appear normal.

Then, feeling guilty, he went to the living room.

I listened for a while, pressing my ear against the door.

It was quiet outside, without any sound.

There shouldn't be anyone there.

"call……"

Su Ling'er took a deep breath and gently pressed the doorknob.

The door opened.

He peeked into the corridor again.

no one.

Safety!

She quickly slipped out, closed the door behind her, and rushed into the elevator.

As the elevator floor numbers ticked up and down, Su Ling'er's heart was in her throat.

hurry up!

Hurry up!

Whatever you do, don't run into anyone!

"bite."

The elevator has stopped.

It's just a matter of going down one floor.

It stopped!

The elevator doors slowly opened.

Looking at the young man standing at the elevator entrance.

Su Ling'er's eyes widened instantly.

It's him.

Lu Chuan!

How could it be him?!

What is he doing here?!

Su Ling'er froze instantly, feeling a chill run from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head.

My scalp felt like it was going to explode.

What is he doing here?

Was he behind everything last night?

In an instant, countless thoughts raced through Su Ling'er's mind, leaving her completely stunned, unable to move forward or backward.

In contrast.

Lu Chuan appeared much calmer.

She smiled slightly and walked in, saying...

"Oh?"

"Isn't this Miss Su?"

"What a coincidence."

"I never expected Miss Su to live upstairs from me!"

Su Ling'er trembled, her face turning pale.

"I……"

"Ah...yes...yes..."

"Um... Brother Lu, good morning..."

"I never expected you to live here too..."

As soon as she said that, she wanted to slap herself.

What do you mean you live here too?

Isn't that obvious?

The elevator doors slowly closed.

The atmosphere in the cramped space was extremely awkward.

Su Ling'er could even hear her own heartbeat.

dong dong dong.

It sounds like drumming.

She secretly glanced at Lu Chuan out of the corner of her eye.

This guy seemed completely unaffected, and was looking down at the monkey in his arms, playing with it.

"Brother Lu..."

"Where are you going so early?"

Su Ling'er started making conversation.

Lu Chuan didn't even look up, and said casually:

"Oh, nothing much."

"It's still early in the morning, so I'm taking my son out for breakfast and giving him a walk."

The son he was talking about.

That would naturally be Wukong.

Wukong cooperated by baring his teeth and making a face at Su Ling'er.

Su Ling'er chuckled dryly twice.

"Hehe, Brother Lu is such a good...good father."

She prayed frantically in her heart that the elevator would reach the first floor quickly.

Every second was torture for her.

Her mind was filled with the illusion from last night, and the more she looked at Lu Chuan, the more unfathomable he seemed.

Does this guy even know I was upstairs last night?

Was he the one who created that illusion last night?

If it weren't for him.

What other monsters are hiding in this building?

If it were him...

Is his current calmness a way of toying with me like a cat playing with a mouse?

"bite."

at last.

Those long tens of seconds passed.

The elevator arrived at the first floor.

As soon as the door opened, Su Ling'er couldn't wait to squeeze out.

"that……"

"Brother Lu, I have urgent business to attend to, I must go now!"

She kept her head down, not even looking where she was going, and rushed straight into the passage on the left.

"Why?"

Lu Chuan called out from behind.

"Ms. Su, that's a fire escape; you can't get out there."

"The gate is this way."

Su Ling'er stumbled and almost fell flat on her face.

He turned around, his face flushed, so embarrassed he wanted to disappear into the ground.

"Ah...is...is that so?"

"Hehe, I'm a bit directionally challenged, really directionally challenged..."

With her head down, she slunk back to Lu Chuan's side and followed him out of the building.
