Chapter 564: Gu Ruandong Gets Beaten

nd tucked her white shirt into her jeans. Her hair was pulled back into a short, neat ponytail. She looked like a young girl just entering the workforce, even younger than Xiao Xin, the intern beside...Lu Kuo had always been a master of disguise, appearing foolish yet wise. He lived a carefree and unrestrained life, unlike Zhuo Yu'an or Gu Ruan Dong, who placed many self-imposed restrictions on themselves. Many things seemed unintentional to him, but in reality, he simply didn't care. It wasn't that he lacked the ability to see what was happening; he just chose not to.

For example, he used to treat Gu Ruandong as a friend and interacted with him frequently. However, because many of Gu Ruandong's businesses seemed unclean in their eyes, Lu Kuò only kept a friendship with him and wouldn't engage in any collaborations or financial dealings.

But now, Gu Ruandong has dealt with those seemingly shady businesses, and even Zhuo Yu'an is willing to cooperate with him, so Lu Kuo also feels that he can make friends with him, which is why he took the initiative to offer help today.

Of course, these are only considered from the standpoint of friendship and cooperation, and nothing else.

He was still lost in the sentiment of a prodigal son returning and being valued, never expecting that he would be played by Gu Ruandong. It turned out that what Gu Ruandong had said about possibly needing help in the future was this kind of favor.

The incident occurred a week later.

Lu YaoYao's period drama finally wrapped up. She had packed her luggage early with her assistant, planning to say hello and leave. Unexpectedly, all the main cast and crew gathered in Beijing for a wrap-up banquet. As the leading actress, it was hard for her to skip the event, so she reluctantly endured the banquet.

The show has been quite a roller coaster ride because of her injuries, so the director and producers were very emotional when speaking, constantly praising her.

“This drama was able to be filmed successfully, all thanks to YaoYao's hard work.”

“Despite her injuries, she persevered in filming. From her, we see the power of a new generation of actresses, and also...”

"It's possible for traffic and strength to coexist."

Even though Lu YaoYao was being showered with praise, it made her feel a little embarrassed. So she, who originally planned to just make a quick appearance and leave, ended up staying for an hour before finding an excuse to go.

Back in Senzhou, it was around 10 pm. Gu Ruandong came to pick her up this time. He didn't bring a driver and drove himself. The assistant knew the timing well and, as soon as she saw Gu Ruandong, turned around and took a taxi by herself, not wanting to be a light bulb.

It's mostly because it's embarrassing to look at. When these two are together, their eyes lock, making people blush and their hearts race. It's too much to handle.

< After getting on the bus, Lu Yaoyao realized that her bag, which she always carried with her, was left with her assistant. It was taken away, and inside were her ID card, phone, and other belongings. >

"Call her and ask her to bring it over"

"It's fine, no one's contacting me anyway. She'll bring it back tomorrow."

The car had already sped onto the highway. There was no traffic at night, and Gu Ruandong drove fast. It took about half an hour to get home. Along the way, the two of them hardly said anything to each other, but they both knew what each other was thinking. They hadn't seen each other for nearly 10 days since the last visit. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, so it goes without saying.

As soon as the elevator doors opened from the basement, they couldn't wait to embrace each other and kiss passionately. Lu Yaoyao was still clinging to him almost entirely, she felt like she was on fire.

Until then, her peripheral vision caught sight of Lu Kuoshi standing at the doorstep of her home, his face pale with shock. It was like a bolt from the blue, instantly bringing her back to reality. She gently pushed away Gu Ruandong, who at this moment had his back turned to Lu Kuoshi and hadn't noticed him, completely immersed in this long-awaited reunion...

In the realm.

She gently pushed him away, turning her head, but he leaned in closer, aggressively pursuing her, his lips landing on her neck, hot enough to burn.

"My brother!" Lu Yaoyao cried out, then fell silent. Her clothes were almost ripped off.

Gu Ruandong stiffened, slowly raising his head from her neck, and then he saw Lu Kuò.

Lu Kuo strode over and shouted, "Who the hell can tell me, am I dreaming!"

He truly felt like he was dreaming, even pinching himself. The sharp pain wasn't a dream.

"Damn it, you animal, Lu Yaoyao, are you even human"

As she spoke, she grabbed Gu Ruandong's black shirt collar and punched him in the face.

Gu Ruandong did not dodge. This was Lu Kuo using all his strength, without any reservation. With this punch, Gu Ruandong's lip instantly bled.

"Brother, why are you hitting him" Lu Yao reacted immediately, standing in front of Gu Ruandong and glaring fiercely at Lu Kuo.

"Get out of my sight, I'll beat this beast to death today."

Gu Ruandong also pulled Lu Yaoyao behind him, squeezed her hand, and motioned that he was fine.

This small action was seen by Lu Kuo, who was further stimulated and stepped forward, pulling Lu Yaoyao behind him. He then punched Gu Ruandong again.

Gu Ruandong didn't parry for three punches, until the fourth one, when he caught Lu Kuo's fist and gripped his wrist, saying

These three punches are what you deserved. That's enough. If you hit again, my child YaoYao would feel sorry for you.

He had been beaten, blood still staining the corner of his lip, but there was a smile in his eyes now, a mischievous glint. He was our Yaoyao, almost making Lu Kuo fly to heaven with jealousy. Alas, he had hit a little too hard earlier and now Gu Ruandong was gripping his wrist, so he couldn't strike again.

A fight also needs give and take; if only one person fights while the other doesn't resist and calmly gets beaten, the fighting atmosphere is halved, and it truly feels like a lackluster brawl.

And Gu Ruandong continued, "You said that day if you needed help just say so, this is my only request."

Lu Kuo also stopped fighting, pulling back his own wrist and twisting it: "Heh, so you set me up a trap and waited for me here I'll let you off today, but in the future, stay away from YaoYao."

Lu Kuo only missed saying, "Are you even qualified" What are you, do you not know your place

But because Lu Yaoyao was there, he swallowed those words.

Although Lu Yaoyao felt sorry for Gu Ruandong getting beaten, she knew she couldn't speak up for him now. It would only add fuel to the fire. Besides, being discovered by Lu Kuo, she actually felt relieved. It was only a matter of time before it came out anyway.

Lu Kuo's face was very bad. He usually had a carefree and smiling demeanor, but there were few things that could truly make him angry. At this moment, he felt both the anger of his own cabbage being trampled by pigs, and the anger of being kept in the dark by the two of them. Judging from their just-finished passionate embrace, they weren't new to each other, which meant he had been oblivious all along.

"Come home with me." He stood angrily at her doorstep, waiting for Lu Yaoyao to open the door, unaware that Gu Ruandong lived next door.

Lu YaoYao didn't have the courage to tell him the truth right now. She obediently opened the door for Lu Kuo and then said to Gu Ruandong, "Go home first."

Gu Ruandong nodded and saw them enter the house.

Lu Kuo rarely got angry, but when he did, it was quite scary. So Lu Yaoyao lowered her head, afraid to look at him. In the Lu family, she was closest to Lu Kuo. Although Lu Kuo was only a few years older than her and often teased her, he had always taken care of her and protected her since childhood.
