Su Ruan was in a daze as she slept, feeling a familiar body wrap around her.
Her nose twitched slightly, catching a faint scent of blood.
A fleeting thought ca and went, but was quickly pulled into darkness by heavy sleep, sinking into an even deeper slumber.
Lu Shinian gazed at the sleeping Su Ruan, lowering his head to gently peck at the corner of her lips, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
"Ruan Ruan, what should I do with you?"
He murmured softly, his words full of possessiveness.
The night grew deeper, yet for so, the revelry was just beginning.
On the second floor of Moonlight Bar, Shen Shi was surrounded by a group of people, wearing a proud smile on her face.
"My university admission party is next Monday, you all have to co."
The others chid in quickly.
"Of course, we have to co."
"I’m so envious of Shishi getting into Federation University, sigh, I can only go to Second Military University."
"Yes, yes, Shishi is just too amazing!"
...
Shen Shi was basking in the complints, happily saying, "Drink whatever you want tonight, my treat."
The room burst into cheers.
"By the way, Shishi, which university did that freeloader from your family get into?"
Soone asked, and everyone fell silent, looking at Shen Shi with gossipy expressions.
Shen Shi sneered with a mix of disdain, "Who knows? But definitely not Federation University."
"That’s for sure." Soone echoed, "Not just anyone can get into Federation University."
"Exactly, exactly, how can Su Ruan compare to our Shishi?"
"But..." Soone quietly interjected, "She married Commander Lu."
The wedding was stread online, and they all saw it.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly beca tense.
Shen Shi’s face darkened, her teeth gritted in frustration.
Seeing sothing amiss, soone quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Well, Su Ruan must have had incredible luck to marry Commander Lu. Just wait and see, it won’t be long before Commander Lu abandons her."
"Yes, yes." Many people outwardly agreed, but what went through their minds was only known to them.
That was Commander Lu, even if soon abandoned, it would still be...
Several exchanged glances, seeing the sa intent in each other’s eyes. However, they didn’t dare speak the truth, instead flattering, "Commander Lu definitely wouldn’t touch soone like Su Ruan."
These words reminded Shen Shi of the red marks she saw on Su Ruan earlier in the day.
Shen Shi’s expression turned even sourer as she bit her lip, "Enough."
"What’s so good about Su Ruan? Just a satellite of ours."
She waved her hand, "Co here, next week at the admission party we’ll..."
The sches against Su Ruan unfolded in this small room.
—————
Su Ruan rarely slept in, and when she awoke, Lu Shinian had already gone to work.
As a commander, he hardly had any ti off.
Su Ruan had grown accustod to such a lifestyle, leisurely waking up to tidy up, and then had lunch, planning to go out for a stroll today. Just as she reached the door, she was stopped.
"Madam, I’m sorry, you cannot go out."
Su Ruan: ...
"Was it his instruction?" Su Ruan asked.
"Please return inside." The bodyguard respectfully refused to answer Su Ruan’s question.
After several attempts to probe, she could only retreat in defeat.
Returning to the bedroom, Su Ruan noticed the box left on the bedside table.
She opened it to find inside a Level 2 Energy Stone.
Externally, an Energy Stone looked like an ordinary transparent rock, only becoming distinct when its energy was activated.
Su Ruan picked up the Level 2 Energy Stone, and imdiately sensed sothing peculiar.
