The Rich Man's Life Begins with a Comeback

Chapter 94 That Dress
As night fell, the lights came on inside the villa on the mountaintop.

Jiang Ruan pushed her suitcase back home from the garage. After not seeing Gu Heng in the living room, she took the elevator to the second floor.

At this moment, only a few nightlights were on.

Jiang Ruan hesitated for a few seconds, pursed her lips, and walked towards the master bedroom.

Pushing open the door, the master bedroom was brightly lit.

The sound of running water coming from the bathroom made Jiang Ruan realize that Gu Heng was taking a shower.

For some reason, hearing the sounds coming from the direction of the bathroom, she couldn't help but recall the scene she had witnessed at the gym that morning.

taut muscles, heaving chest.

Sweat covered his entire body, glistening in the sunlight.

His entire body exuded the scent of male hormones.

And then there are his beautiful hands, his sexy Adam's apple, and those lips that look so inviting to kiss.

As I thought about it, my mind started replaying explicit content.

Jiang Ruan didn't even notice when the sound of water in the bathroom stopped until the bathroom door was pushed open, bringing her back to her senses from those restricted contents.

"I……"

"I am back."

Jiang Ruan looked at Gu Heng, whose hair was damp and who was wearing black pajamas, and felt a little flustered. She didn't dare to meet Gu Heng's gaze.

Why is your face so red?

Gu Heng patted the essence onto his face while looking at Jiang Ruan with some confusion.

"what……"

"I might have left in a bit of a hurry."

Jiang Ruan responded somewhat haltingly.

"Oh……"

Gu Heng didn't think much of it: "Have you moved everything that needed to be moved?"

"They've all been moved out."

Jiang Ruan responded in a low voice.

She paused for a few seconds, her voice even softer: "Where...where should I put my luggage?"

"The north-facing guest room has been prepared for you."

"It's a suite, it has a walk-in closet, and it has an ensuite bathroom."

"You'll live in that room from now on."

Gu Heng walked past Jiang Ruan toward the balcony, his tone somewhat indifferent.

"You mean..."

"Can I stay in the guest room instead of living in the master bedroom with you?"

Jiang Ruan raised her head, a hint of surprise flashing across her cool and aloof face.

"how?"

"Are you disappointed that I don't let you live in the master bedroom?"

After a long day of intense training, Gu Heng felt physically and mentally exhausted. He slumped into a soft sofa, so comfortable that even his tone became languid.

"Ah……"

"disappointment?"

Jiang Ruan sneered: "I just hope that Chairman Gu can keep his word and not go back on his word again one day."

"rest assured."

"I will definitely keep my word."

Gu Heng's voice was somewhat languid: "I only need to eat a melon that isn't sweet once. I still prefer sweet melons."

"Jiang Ruan, whether you believe it or not."

"Unless you beg me to touch you next time, I will never touch you again."

Gu Heng looked at Jiang Ruan with a calm expression.

"Please?"

"You must be dreaming."

Jiang Ruan found Gu Heng's last sentence utterly ridiculous, because based on what Gu Heng had done yesterday, she felt she would never be able to forgive him in her entire life.

"go to bed early."

Gu Heng smiled but didn't say anything more.

Jiang Ruan did not respond and pushed her suitcase out of the master bedroom.

……

The guest bedroom on the north side is the largest guest bedroom in the entire villa, besides the master bedroom.

Jiang Ruan pushed open the door and turned on the lights.

The brand-new mattresses were already laid out, and their quality was exactly the same as the mattresses used by Gu Heng in the master bedroom, both being 100% mulberry silk.

On the windowsill, there are several lush potted plants.

The entire suite was like the difference between a five-star hotel and a budget chain hotel compared to her previous rented room.

Jiang Ruan did not pack her luggage immediately, but gently closed the door and lay down on the bed.

very tired.

I'm physically exhausted, and mentally exhausted too.

Jiang Ruan stared at the pristine white ceiling, her mind in turmoil.

'Now……'

'Gu Heng's girlfriend should have received those clothes and bags by now, right?'

'She'll be very happy, won't she?'

What will Gu Heng's girlfriend be like?

'A wealthy heiress who's a good match for him?'

Does she know I exist?

Is she prettier than me?

……

Numerous questions filled Jiang Ruan's mind.

She desperately wanted to know the answer, but had no way to ask Gu Heng directly.

In fact, Jiang Ruan herself did not realize that yesterday her world was filled with things like work aspirations, career planning, and financial pressure, but at this moment, it seemed that her world only consisted of Gu Heng, to the point that all her thoughts and ideas were about Gu Heng.

Even though she deeply loathed this man who was using coercion and enticement, she couldn't help but want to investigate him further.

"call……"

"forget about it."

Suddenly, Jiang Ruan sat up in bed again.

"Anyway, I'll be leaving in six months."

"What does it matter to me what Gu Heng is like, or what his girlfriend is like?"

“I can move to another city and start a completely new life.”

Jiang Ruan murmured to herself, as if trying to hypnotize herself.

After saying that, Jiang Ruan stood up from the bed.

I opened my suitcase and started packing.

She first took out her cosmetics bag and skincare bag, and then carried the two bags into the bathroom of her guest suite.

All the skincare products she had used yesterday were now displayed untouched on the marble countertop in front of her.

In addition, there were many unopened brand-new beauty products on the table. Like the skincare products, they were all from top international luxury brands. A single powder compact, a liquid foundation, or a primer could cost thousands of yuan.

Dozens of lipsticks in different shades, and dozens of perfumes with different fragrances.

Looking around, it's absolutely breathtaking for a girl.

Looking at the things in front of her, and then at the cosmetics and skincare products she had brought back from home, Jiang Ruan suddenly seemed to understand what Gu Heng meant when he said that afternoon, "Throw away useless things."

Compared to these things, what I have in my hands really does seem like "garbage".

Clearly, Gu Heng had already prepared everything for her.

"Sugar-coated bullets..."

"They're all sugar-coated bullets!"

Jiang Ruan realized that she was feeling a little touched. She looked a little flustered, put down the skincare and makeup products in her hand, and walked out of the bathroom.

She took a deep breath and decided to tidy up her clothes first, and then go to the bathroom to tidy up her things after she calmed down.

However, the moment Jiang Ruan pushed open the door to the walk-in closet...

She froze on the spot, feeling as if an electric current had surged through her body from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

The walk-in closet in front of me was not as empty as I had imagined.

From coats to dresses, from trousers to shoes, from belts to bags.

Everywhere her eyes fell, there were only the clothes she had tried on that afternoon.

The skirt placed in the very center...

It was also her favorite gray Dior dress.
