He Yidu sat on the sofa and remained silent.
Qin Fang pondered it and concluded that the matter was grave. "Old He, I’ll get Lu San to go check on Gu Mang again."
He Yidu narrowed his eyes and replied with disdain, "The emperor is composed and yet the eunuch is worried sick. What has Gu Mang’s matter got to do with you?"
Brother Cheng did not even say anything. The corner of Qin Fang’s lips twitched.
When he realized what was said, he stared at his friend. "Who did you say was a eunuch?"
...
The next evening.
Lu Chengzhou and Gu Mang ate at Seal Palace and afterwards headed to the airport.
Before leaving, Gu Mang dropped her keys. She bent to pick them up, her hair naturally sweeping across her neck. Lu Chengzhou’s gaze followed her and he saw the hickey on her neck. His gaze deepened.
He may have lost control a little bit last night. Her skin was very fair and so any mark left on it was very obvious.
Gu Mang picked up the keys and stuffed them in her pocket as she pulled the door and headed out.
"Wait a bit," Lu Chengzhou said.
Gu Mang paused at the entrance as she turned around to look at him with her eyebrows raised. "Mm?"
Lu Chengzhou did not reply and headed to the master bedroom. Moments later, he emerged with a shawl.
Gu Mang narrowed her eyes and reminded him, "It’s summer now in country K."
Upon hearing that, Lu Chengzhou went silent.
Gu Mang smirked in a sinister manner. "We can video call. You don’t have to look at things to remind yourself of me."
Seeing the things that reminded him of her. Lu Chengzhou laughed and lifted his hand.
Gu Mang had no idea what he was intending to do so she did not move. Lu Chengzhou shifted his head as he brushed her hair away and touched her neck with his hot palm. His rough thumb rubbed the area below her ear.
"It’s good that you’re carrying my mark. I’m reassured," he said with a low voice while smiling.
Gu Mang frowned as she thought for two seconds before walking to the mirror in the doorway. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
