The Rich Man's Life Begins with a Comeback

Chapter 56 Humanity and Choice
"Clang..."

From the living room to the bedroom, the two stumbled and bumped into each other.

The summer night breeze couldn't dispel the heat inside the bedroom.

"Chairman Gu, I..."

"I've never done it before."

Loshvin regained some consciousness.

"Not today."

"call……"

Gu Heng slowly raised his head.

He let out a long breath, his eyes, still slightly tinged with alcohol, still brimming with intense desire.

"Chairman Gu, are you... are you feeling very unwell?"

Luo Xiwen looked at Gu Heng, who was silently watching her, her pale face flushed with an alluring blush.

From the cheeks to the neck, and then from the neck down to below the collarbone.

"fine……"

Gu Heng's voice was a little hoarse. He hadn't expected that coming up for a cup of hangover tea would lead to this situation.

"That……"

Luo Xiwen was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look Gu Heng in the eye.

She's not some little girl; she's 27 years old this year. Although she's never been in a relationship, she naturally understands the things that are important to her.

To be honest, she and Gu Heng are not much different.

They are all complete novices with a wealth of theoretical knowledge but zero practical experience.

Gu Heng did not respond, but his heart was pounding like a drum.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Gu Heng stayed at her house last night, but when she woke up this morning, Gu Heng, who was sleeping next to her, was nowhere to be found.

There were no messages on WeChat, and no missed calls, giving her the vague feeling that last night was just a dream.

But when she woke up today, the lingering scent made it clear to her that everything last night was not a dream.

She was feeling somewhat troubled. Now that her once pure relationship with Gu Heng had suddenly become impure, she really didn't know how to face him.

"call……"

Luo Xiwen turned off the shower and let out a long sigh.

She decided to pretend that what happened last night had never happened and continue to do what Gu Heng had instructed her to do.

After wiping himself clean, Luo Xiwen planned to find a gardener to select for Gu Heng later.

However, she had just changed her clothes when the doorbell rang.

"Who is it?"

Luo Xiwen was somewhat puzzled, and as he walked towards the door, he asked the person outside.

"Is this Ms. Luo's home?"

"We are employees of the Chanel store in Zhuozhan Shopping Center. We have been entrusted by Mr. Gu to deliver some clothes and shoes to you."

In response to the inquiry, a respectful voice quickly rang out from outside the door.

Upon hearing this, Luo Xiwen paused slightly in his forward steps.

Upon opening the door, I saw that the corridor was full of people.

"Ms. Luo, I am Qiao Ying, the sales manager of the Chanel store in Zhuozhan Shopping Center. It's a pleasure to serve you."

The woman standing at the front bowed respectfully to Luo Xiwen the moment he opened the door.

At the same time, looking at Luo Xiwen's fair face, which was as beautiful as a lotus emerging from clear water without any makeup, and her dignified and delicate features, a look of amazement and realization flashed in her eyes.

"Manager Qiao, please come in..."

Luo Xiwen was slightly at a loss.

Although she knew that top luxury brands like LV and Chanel offered home delivery services, she never imagined that she would one day have the opportunity to enjoy such a service herself.

In a daze, Qiao Ying and the others entered Luo Xiwen's house one after another.

However, not all of them came in; only four people entered, while the others remained standing in the corridor. "Ms. Luo, Mr. Gu called us this morning to order four outfits and four bags for you. Two outfits are summer wear, and two are autumn wear. Each outfit includes a coat and shoes."

"Because Mr. Gu couldn't quite explain your size and preferences, he asked us to bring all the latest clothing, shoes, and bags in the store to your home so you could choose them in person."

Qiao Ying stood in the center of the living room and explained her purpose to Luo Xiwen.

"This……"

Looking at the dazzling array of high-end clothing in the hands of the numerous sales assistants, Luo Xiwen felt as if a dream had entered reality. Even a simple shirt cost almost as much as her monthly salary, yet she could choose whatever she wanted.

"Please wait a moment, I need to make a phone call."

Luo Xiwen took a deep breath, then hurriedly walked into the bedroom, closed the door, picked up the phone, and dialed Gu Heng.

The call was connected in about ten seconds.

"Chairman Gu..."

Luo Xiwen called out to Gu Heng, but didn't know how to continue the conversation.

"Xiwen, do you like those clothes and bags?"

"If you don't like it, I'll have the LV store go there again."

When Gu Heng's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone, Luo Xiwen's somewhat uneasy heart inexplicably calmed down.

"I like."

Luo Xiwen pursed his lips: "But..."

"Xiwen, do you like me?"

"Or rather, do you have feelings for me?"

Gu Heng interrupted Luo Xiwen and asked directly and frankly.

Faced with Gu Heng's sudden direct approach, Luo Xiwen was a little dizzy.

Like it?
Of course I like it.

Young, wealthy, handsome, and of prominent status.

Ok……

They are also wealthy and powerful.

It seems that any woman who has met a man like this would be hard not to like, let alone a woman like her who has been by Gu Heng's side for so long.

However, due to her age and status, she never dared to have any expectations.

However, now that Gu Heng has asked her this, she naturally won't lie and chooses to follow her heart, answering, "I like it."

"Since you like it, there's no need to say more."

Gu Heng's gentle voice came again: "From now on, you'll need to have a few decent outfits when you're by my side."

"Ok."

Luo Xiwen opened his mouth, but in the end, he only responded with these two words.

The two exchanged a few words, seemingly saying nothing, yet they said everything.

She knew very well that no matter the gender, no matter how young, rich, good-looking, or socially significant a person was, they could not possibly be faithful, because it was inherently a challenge to human nature.

A mediocre life, but an opportunity to rise in social class.

For every gain, there is a loss.

Before last night, Luo Xiwen had been struggling with these two choices.

What she didn't know was that when faced with two choices and unsure which to choose, you can simply close your eyes and choose the second one.

Because if you choose the first option, then the second option will not be available.

"Take your time choosing, you're on the day off~"

When Gu Heng heard Luo Xiwen's reply, a hint of amusement and intimacy crept into his voice.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu..."

Lohwick responded softly.

"it is good."

Gu Heng responded with a sound of agreement, but didn't say anything more.

After hanging up the phone, Luo Xiwen reopened the door. Looking at the dazzling array of clothes and bags, she let out a soft sigh…
