Chapter 170: Third Young Master Teaches You About Love

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Zhiyuan seemed to sense something, raising his head to look at them. They blushed and hid again. They wanted to take a group photo but hesitated. When Lu Zhiyuan encountered fans, it was nothing special. After all, girls ultimately thought he didn’t like to be disturbed, so they didn’t ask for autographs or photos together.

Gu Ci held two cups of milk tea, passing one to Lu Zhiyuan. He looked at the milk tea but didn’t take it. Gu Ci said, “No sugar.”

Lu Zhiyuan remembered Gu Ci’s empty friend circle – besides a post about Gu Ziyu meeting while walking a dog, there was only a nine-grid photo from their trip to Haicheng. There were no traces of him, nor of Third Master.

He thought of his cousin from the branch of the Lu family. She had been in a recent relationship, displaying affection every day – eating noodles, taking a photo; drinking tea, taking a photo; even when strolling while in love, they took a photo. Lu Zhiyuan had blocked her posts.

Accepting the milk tea, he asked Gu Ci, “Want to take a photo?”

Gu Ci blinked, then nodded obediently, “Sure.”

The two cups of milk tea were placed together. As Lu Zhiyuan was about to take a photo, he noticed the bracelet on Gu Ci’s wrist. He intentionally switched his hand to hold the cup, as he was also wearing a bracelet – clearly a couple’s accessory.

Coincidentally, as he framed the shot, a ginkgo leaf fell into the frame, creating a beautifully composed image. Lu Zhiyuan was often in front of the lens, possessing a good sense for composition in photographs.

After taking the photo, he sent it to Gu Ci. Lijiang, with a car full of security guards, watched from behind. Everyone was amazed – Third Young Master, you’re really toying with emotions here.

Gu Ci remained puzzled, wondering what was going on.

Looking at her, Lu Zhiyuan scoffed, “How dense!”

Gu Ci wondered if it was because she didn’t praise him?

Gu Ci said, “Lu Zhiyuan, the photo you took is really nice.”

Lu Zhiyuan was speechless.

He took a sip of the milk tea without expression, got into the car, and felt an urge to leave her on the street. Gu Ci boarded the car with a bewildered expression, quietly sipping her milk tea.

Once she took a sip, Lu Zhiyuan placed his milk tea inside the car. Gu Ci stole a glance at his profile.

Is he angry?

Why?

“Third Brother, don’t you like the milk tea?” Gu Ci tentatively asked.

“It’s good.”

Holding her milk tea, Gu Ci took out her phone, opened a chat with Zhou Jinjin, and sent a message.

Gu Ci: I went out with Lu Zhiyuan to buy milk tea. I got two cups, and he suddenly asked if I wanted to take a photo. He took a picture and sent it to me, then he got angry. Why did he take a photo and send it to me, and why is he angry again?

Zhou Jinjin was speechless.

Zhou Jinjin burst into laughter while holding her phone. Seeing Gu Ci’s serious expression was even more amusing. Seeing the photo Gu Ci sent, the composition was truly beautiful, a classic example of a couple indulging in affection.

Zhou Jinjin: He probably wanted to show off on his social media, such an obvious hint. Do you even know how to be in a relationship? Hahaha, Cici, you’re finally telling me about your romantic affair. It’s quite rare. Just post on your social media, show your affection; don’t say anything, just post a heart emoji.

Gu Ci was half doubtful, half believing. She opened her social media and glanced at Lu Zhiyuan. She posted a heart emoji and added a line praising Lu Zhiyuan’s photography skills.

Zhou Jinjin promptly liked the post and left a row of “hahaha.”

At a traffic light, Gu Ci sipped her milk tea and said, “Third Brother, I posted something on my social media. You won’t be angry, right?”

Lu Zhiyuan took her phone, glanced at her post, raised an eyebrow slightly. He had misunderstood Gu Ci – she had become perceptive. Gu Ci looked at his profile.

“If you’re upset, I’ll delete it.”

Lu Zhiyuan pressed the like button.

Gu Ci understood instantly – he actually hinted that she should post on her social media. In reality, Gu Ci didn’t know how to be in a relationship. The connection between her and Lu Zhiyuan had always been initiated by him.

In her past life, she was full of inferiority and retreated in fear. She couldn’t fathom Lu Zhiyuan’s feelings, and the best years of her youth were wasted in confinement, causing her to lose her girlish heart.

So, this is what being in love feels like!

Gu Ci nodded, learning something new.

Lu Zhiyuan dropped Gu Ci off at the entrance of Blue Fields Villa. He didn’t say much and just left. Gu Ci couldn’t quite grasp Lu Zhiyuan’s intentions. Were they back to being as good as before? It didn’t seem that way. “Take care,” maybe? But that didn’t seem quite right either.

What was he really thinking? Gu Ci couldn’t figure it out.

As Ji Chi returned Gu Ziyu, they passed by that street. They had seen Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ci long before. Lu Zhiyuan’s sports car was parked by the roadside, quite eye-catching.

Gu Ziyu wanted to go over to them, but Ji Chi said, “Baby, be a bit more tactful, don’t be a third wheel.”

Gu Ziyu pouted. He realized that Gu Ci and Lu Zhiyuan had been having issues lately, not meeting for a long time, so it indeed wouldn’t be appropriate. Ji Chi laughed and said, “Do you want some milk tea? I’ll get you one.”

“Yes!”

Ji Chi smiled and took him to the nearby street, getting a milk tea for Gu Ziyu as well. When Gu Ziyu scrolled through Gu Ci’s social media, he posted a photo as well.

Gu Ziyu: I’m an accidental bystander.

The photo was just an empty milk tea cup.

The two social media posts put together were quite amusing.

Gu Ci even liked his post.

Both of them arrived home – Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ziyu didn’t cross paths. Gu Ci chuckled and asked, “Did you see us on the road? Why didn’t you come and say hi?”

That picture was probably deliberate.

Gu Ziyu smiled, half-squinting. “Being a third wheel is annoying. I get it.”

Gu Ci gaped.

Both husband and son were difficult to deal with. Fortunately, while Gu Ziyu might tease him, he wouldn’t genuinely be angry. Gu Ci found it incredibly amusing. Chen Rushi’s surgery had been a success, which relieved her.

Dr. North was no longer a problem, and Chen Rush! wasn’t going to pursue the issue of Little Cherry – it was perfect!

“Mom, have you made up with Dad?”

Gu Ci shook her head. “Not really.”

“Then what does your social media post mean?” Gu Ziyu was confused. “I thought you two had made up.”

“Trying to please him,” Gu Ci admitted without reservation.

“Why would posting something on social media make him happy?”

“To be honest, I don’t know either.” Gu Ci shrugged. “I just learned about it.”

Gu Ziyu didn’t know what to say.

When Lu Zhiyuan returned to Global in a good mood, Lu Ze was waiting for him. Regarding the hospital incident, the hospital president didn’t keep it from Lu Ze, who had been waiting for Lu Zhiyuan for a while.

“How’s your health?”

After Lu Ze was poisoned, despite removing the toxins, his body suffered considerable damage. He felt older than before he got poisoned as if his body had aged ten years.

Lu Zhiyuan poured him some tea. Lu Ze said, “My immunity is low. I’ve been feeling cold lately.”

“Then let someone else handle the affairs of the Lu Corporation. Go to Haicheng to recover – the climate there is good for recuperation.”

“Hand over my life’s work to someone else to manage? I can’t trust that.” Lu Ze said, “The matter with Gu Ci having two surgeries at the hospital must be handled properly. Don’t let anything go wrong.”

“I’ll take care of it!” He’d entrust this matter to Li Jiang. He needed to find out who leaked the information this time, even if it was unintentional. He had to resolve it..
