Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains.


    At this moment, Yu Hany sprawled across Gu Heng like an octopus, without a shred of clothing on her.


    After waking up, Gu Heng saw the sight before him and merely chuckled, then pushed her away.


    The cellphone on the bedside table rang.


    Gu Heng picked up the phone, nced at the caller ID, and directly answered the call.


    "Son, where are you? A bunch of people have shown up at home, iming to be from some constructionpany, what’s going on?"


    N?v(el)B\\jnn


    "Thatpany is so efficient, huh?"


    Hearing Old Gu’s words over the phone, Gu Heng responded with some surprise...


    He hadn’t expected that just after he made a deposit yesterday, people from Wan’an Design and Construction Company had alreadye knocking...


    "What efficiency?"


    Facing Old Gu’s confusion, Gu Heng didn’t bother to exin, "These people are from thepany I contracted, you don’t need to deal with them, I’ll be back soon."


    "Oh, okay, will you make it back for lunch?"


    Experience tales at empire


    "I’ll make it."


    After a brief conversation, Gu Heng hung up the phone.


    He put down the phone, carelessly tossing it onto the bed.


    "Quit pretending to sleep, you’re awake."


    As he dressed, he spoke nonchntly to Yu Han in bed, his attitude a stark contrast to the tenderness he had disyed in bed the night before.


    Hearing Gu Heng’s tone, Yu Han felt somewhat disappointed but didn’t take it to heart as she peeked her delicate head out from under the covers.


    "How did you know I was awake?"


    "I was just on the phone, using my mouth. My eyes aren’t blind."


    Yu Han threw back the covers, her smooth skin looking exceptionally pale in the sunlight. She stretchedzily, showcasing her wonderful figure to its fullest extent.


    "Was that your parents on the phone just now?"


    No response.


    Now dressed, Gu Heng simply admired the beautiful scene for a moment, then turned away without a second nce, picked up his phone, and walked straight toward the door without looking back...


    Seeing Gu Heng’s decisive back, Yu Han felt a lump in her throat and with a trace of hope said, "Can I asionally contact you?"


    Her tone was as meek as that of a simp who couldn’t get what they wanted...


    Hearing her voice, Gu Heng turned his head, a smile on his face, "Depends on if I have time.


    Oh, by the way, I’ll extend the room for another day before I leave. You can sleep a little longer."


    After finishing, he walked out without the slightest hint of reluctance and gently closed the door behind him...


    Yu Han listened to the sound of the door closing and copsed back onto the bed...


    As a smart woman, she already knew what Gu Heng had decided...


    And the first thing Gu Heng did after stepping out of the room was to delete Yu Han from his WeChat...


    The main theme was a heartless detachment.


    If he felt a bit of affection for Lin Jiayun, his night with Yu Han was nothing but pure indulgence. The purpose of going out was to have fun, and once the fun was over, of course, it was time to return to normal life.


    As for what Yu Han was thinking, Gu Heng actually understood very well.


    But clearly, her tactics were wasted on him.


    If she had picked a man in his thirties or forties with a bit of disposable ie, maybe he’d be willing to maintain a long-term sexual rtionship with her.


    But why would he choose her when he was in his twenties, with over seventy million in assets, and a future that promised continued growth, giving him endless options?


    For her good performance in bed? For her gag reflex, orck thereof?


    Other women had those qualities too.


    .....


    After a while.


    Li Feng, Li Haibin, and Song Hua were all seated in Gu Heng’s Bentley.


    Apart from Li Feng, who had merely slept the previous night, Li Haibin and Song Hua were both excited, boasting about their conquests from the night before...


    Gu Heng watched them, simply smiling faintly without dampening their spirits...


    "By the way, Hengzi, how was your night? That Yu Han must have been much more thrilling than the girls Xiaohua and I took home..."


    "It was just okay."


    Gu Heng wasn’t in the habit of using such matters as conversation pieces, so he glossed over it carelessly.


    "My woman even asked me toe over again in a few days for another round and a meal!"


    Li Haibin said, his face beaming with pride.


    Hearing this, Gu Heng feltpelled to speak, "Haibin, I have to advise you, don’t takest night’s fun too seriously."


    Li Haibin: "?"


    Perplexed, Li Haibin listened to Gu Heng’s advice.


    "You can’t handle this kind of girl. How she treats you now indicates how she would treat others, unless you’re wealthy."


    Seeing Li Haibin fall silent, Gu Heng continued, "With these girls, if you have money, they can lick you to death, but once she’s squeezed you dry of everyst bit of value, she’ll kick you to the curb.


    The happier she makes you feel now, the more pain she’ll cause youter.


    But if you can be so wealthy that she remains utterly devoted to you, then disregard what I said today."


    Further words would have been too hurtful, and Li Haibin already got the point...


    He was straightforward, not stupid.


    He understood some lifestyles were not within his reach.


    In an instant, his joy faded, and Li Haibin took out his phone, deleting the woman who had sweetly called him "baby" just minutes before, then closed his eyes and leaned back in the seat...


    ...


    ...


    An hourter, the time reached eleven in the morning.


    After dropping off Li Feng and the others at their homes, he drove towards his own ce.


    Upon arriving at his home, he was bewildered to see a throng of people encircling his yard, threeyers deep...


    What had happened to his home?


    Then he honked the horn.


    "Has Xiaohenge back?"
