Chu Lan was clearly still preoccupied with the news of the beauty company setting up shop in Jiangcheng and hadn't reacted yet.

"Ah? What's going on?"

Xu Tian pulled her close and kissed her forcefully...

After a night of pleasure, Xu Tian was too excited to sleep.

Nobody knew it was his first time, and his performance on his first try...

Xu Tian looked at Chu Lan, who was so exhausted from his antics that he couldn't wake her up, and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

He was very satisfied with himself!

The next day, Chu Lan woke up with a sore body and found that Xu Tian was not lying next to her. She quickly pulled back the covers, and a bright red corner on the covers indicated that she had successfully transformed into a woman.

"You're up?"

Xu Tian brought in breakfast and naturally placed it on the bedroom table.

"Want to eat together? Try my cooking."

Chu Lan frantically covered the bloodstains with the blanket before pretending nothing had happened and getting out of bed.

"Last night we..." Chu Lan bit her lip, hesitating to speak.

Xu Tian looked at her expectantly, "How are you feeling?"

It wasn't that he was shameless, but rather that he valued his dignity as a man. After all, it was his first time, and he naturally hoped to gain Chu Lan's approval.

Chu Lan glared at Xu Tian resentfully. He had no sense of chivalry at all, leaving her covered in bruises and aches all over when she woke up.

"I feel pain all over my body, like my body is falling apart."

Xu Tian smiled smugly; this was high praise for a man, and he accepted it.

However, having experienced the joys of lovemaking for the first time, Xu Tian naturally didn't want to miss the second time.

So, Chu Lan ate breakfast, and Xu Tian ate hers...

After fussing around in the room for a while, the two washed up and went out together.

After dropping Xu Tian off at the construction site, Chu Lan drove to the Xu Group himself.

As Zhao Jing watched Chu Lan drive away, her mind began to wander.

They came together today, not the two of them last night...

"Did you go straight home yesterday?" Zhao Jing asked Xu Tian.

Xu Tian felt that her gaze was familiar, as if Chu Lan had the same expression when he mentioned other women yesterday.

However, he did not expect that his relationship with Chu Lan would progress so quickly, skipping the confirmation of their relationship and going straight to the point of making it official.

But he hadn't had time to figure out his feelings for Chu Lan yet. He only felt that he didn't reject her and that he was dependent on her. It was as if he could always feel at ease as long as Chu Lan was by his side.

He had never experienced this feeling with any other woman, so he didn't mention Zhang Qian.

Zhao Jing and Su Nuannuan have completely different personalities, but they both give him the feeling of a girl next door. Chu Lan, however, is different. He feels at ease and develops a sense of dependence on her.

Does he have a mother complex?

Thinking about this, Xu Tian couldn't accept it for a moment. Although Oedipus complex is not a derogatory term, it was still unacceptable for a grown man like him.

"What do you think of me?" Xu Tian suddenly asked.

Zhao Jing was taken aback. "What's wrong with you? Who is this person and what's going on?"

Xu Tian looked at her with unusual seriousness, "Do you think I would like a woman older than myself?"

Seeing his sincerity, Zhao Jing, unusually, didn't joke around and thought about it carefully for a while.

"These days, there are even relationships between grandparents and grandchildren. Isn't it normal for the woman to be much older or much younger than you?"

"Love is a strange thing. For example, you seem like a little man to me, but I still like you!"

The conversation had gone off-topic, so Xu Tian decided to stop thinking about it. He was certain he didn't have a mother complex, otherwise he wouldn't have been so blind as to like Zhang Qian for so long.

"So, did you go home last night or not?" Zhao Jing pressed.

"I've already gone back," Xu Tian said with a laugh.

A slight smile finally appeared on Zhao Jing's face.

"Zhang Qian hasn't contacted you these past two days?" Zhao Jing asked again.

Xu Tian hadn't really noticed, but after Zhao Jing mentioned it, it seemed like it had been a few days.

Zhao Jing snorted coldly, "What on earth is she thinking? One minute she's clinging to you like an octopus, the next she's ignoring you. I seriously suspect she has schizophrenia!"

"Whatever her illness is, as long as she doesn't bother me!" Xu Tian smiled.

“That’s true…” Zhao Jing muttered to herself.

Unfortunately, as soon as you speak of the devil, a car pulled up at the construction site entrance. Zhang Qian got out of the car amidst the two men's utterly disdainful gazes and headed straight for Xu Tian.

Seeing this, Zhao Jing protectively stepped in front of Xu Tian.

"Are you ever going to stop? Didn't you get enough last time?"

Zhang Qian looked past Zhao Jing and at Xu Tiandao, saying, "I heard you're short of building materials right now. I can introduce you to some of the manufacturers I work with."

Xu Tian waved his hand, "No need, it's already been resolved."

Zhang Qian persisted, "I guarantee there's no lower price in Jiangcheng. How about I take you to see it first?"

Xu Tian remembered what Chu Lan had told him last night and shook his head. He didn't want to get himself into trouble.

"Take a look first, the price will definitely surprise you," Zhang Qian insisted.

Zhao Jing couldn't stand it anymore, "You've already divorced Xu Tian, ​​yet you keep pestering him. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if word gets out?"

“We’re still friends even though we’re divorced. Besides, what’s your relationship with Xu Tian? If you were to use the energy you’re putting into dealing with me on your work, you would have already solved Xu Tian’s problem!” Zhang Qian said coldly.

"What problems can you solve for him? You're just using helping him as a pretext to pester him!" Zhao Jing retorted.

For some reason, Xu Tian sensed that Zhang Qian seemed different this time, though he couldn't quite put his finger on what exactly it was.

Seeing that Zhao Jing was constantly hindering their conversation, Zhang Qian had no choice but to say,

"You're overthinking it. I'm only here to help. Besides, why would I bother him? I'm about to get engaged."

As she spoke, Zhang Qian looked at Xu Tian. Although Chen Feng had shown great sincerity in their relationship, she still reserved a place for Xu Tian in her heart. She said this only to test Xu Tian's reaction after he learned that she was getting engaged.

"What? You're getting engaged? To whom?"

Zhao Jing was stunned. Just a few days ago, the two of them got into a fight over Xu Tian and it became a trending topic. Now, Zhang Qian is about to get engaged?

"With Chen Feng?" Xu Tian said casually.

Zhang Qian nodded dejectedly. "Next month on the 5th, at the Huaxiang Hotel. I hope you can come."

"I wish you happiness," Xu Tian said with a smile.

Zhang Qian's eyes revealed resentment. "Really? Is it a genuine wish for my happiness? Or..."

"Alright, alright, I got it. I'll participate with Xu Tian." Zhao Jing said impatiently.

Zhang Qian glanced at Xu Tian one last time, reluctant to leave, before departing at Zhao Jing's urging.

"She's really getting engaged? Did I hear that right? This is the best news I've heard in a long time!" Zhao Jing cheered excitedly.
