Song Ci’s reply was always timely.

[ Packing my luggage. ]

[ Is it a lot? I’ll get the chauffeur to pick you up tomorrow. ]

[ No, and thank you! ]

[ You’re welcome. ]

Another thunder could be heard. It irked Lu Gan. To get rid of his annoyance, he decided to give Song Ci a video call.

This surprised Song Ci. After thinking for a while, she sat on her bed and answered.

Lu Gan’s face was a little pale. He leaned against his wheelchair and put on a lazy expression.

This was the first time Song Ci had seen him like this. He was totally different from usual.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Gan asked hesitantly, “Do you want me to use a beauty filter when chatting with you?”

Was it really necessary?

“In my eyes, you’re already very handsome. In fact, you’re the most handsome man in this world. There’s no need for filters,” said Song Ci.

Lu Gan never expected to hear something like this. He immediately laughed.

Song Ci was puzzled.

“What are you laughing at? Am I wrong?”

Lu Gan nodded. He looked at Song Ci and said gently, “You’re absolutely right. I don’t need filters when video chatting with you. Otherwise, you would also want to use it for yourself.”

Song Ci felt that he was really thinking too much.

However, she was relieved to see him smile.

Normally, Lu Gan was confident and cheerful in front of her.

Hence, she instinctively hoped that he would always be happy.

Just like now, he had returned to his usual self.

“I’m not going to turn on a filter. I’m also beautiful. Why would I need it?” said Song Ci proudly. Then, she asked, “Why did you suddenly look for me to video chat?”

Lu Gan replied calmly, “There’s thunder outside.”

“So?”

Song Ci smiled and teased, “It can’t be that someone as proud as you is actually afraid of thunder, right?”

Upon hearing that, Lu Gan slowly raised the corners of his lips.

“No, I just thought of something.”

“What?”

“I was just wondering how much it takes to satisfy you… Seven times in one night… A strong man… True happiness… There are many things that I don’t quite understand. Can you explain them to me?”

Song Ci lowered her head in shame and anger.

Your fiancée had gone offline!

Song Ci hung up the video call without saying anything.

At the same time, Lu Gan no longer felt pent up.

He smiled happily and sent Song Ci another video call invitation. However, Song Ci declined without any hesitation.

Lu Gan could only continue to send messages.

[ What are you doing? The man that you’ve been secretly in love with for so many years has sent you a video call. Yet, you declined? ]

Song Ci felt that maybe she should fall for another man. Possibly Di Zhongyang?

[ Perhaps it would have been better if my feelings for you remained as a crush. ]

Lu Gan raised his eyebrows.

[ Is that so? ]

[ Maybe the man I had a crush on was just my imagination. It might not be the real you. After all, what I can’t get always gets better! ]

[ Maybe I made you unable to stop. But strictly speaking, you haven’t won me over yet… ]

“…”

How could he say that?

Clearly, he just wanted to anger her to death!

[ Be good, answer the video call. ]

After Lu Gan sent that message, he requested another video call.

Song Ci answered it helplessly. She pursed her lips as she looked at him.

Lu Gan saw her puffy cheeks. She really looked like a pufferfish. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t tease you anymore.”

“You’re aware of your actions?”

Lu Gan nodded.

“Yes.”

“?”

He dared nod?!

“You’re just teasing me because I like you!”

Lu Gan confessed, “Yes.”

“Yes?”

“That’s the truth.”

Lu Gan laughed.

“Don’t worry, your man isn’t a narcissist.”

Song Ci snorted coldly.

“How are you not a narcissist? You’re clearly acting like one!”

Lu Gan chuckled softly.

“You flatter me.”

Song Ci reached out to cover her face and did not want to say anything. She was no match for him!

Lu Gan smiled.

“Alright, I’ll stop. Let’s get down to business.”

“What is it?”

Song Ci asked doubtfully.

“I’m going to contact Sunlight Media’s manager in a few days. You’ll be signing under her name.”

Song Ci did not expect Lu Gan to keep that part of his words.

“My current contract hasn’t expired yet.”

“I’ll get Sunlight Media to help you pay the penalty.”

Obviously, Lu Gan was very wealthy.

“That’s not very appropriate,” said Song Ci with a frown.

“So you want to stay with your current company?”

Lu Gan scowled.
