After Gu Junxing left, Nian Suian didn't go out either. After breakfast, she stayed in her room watching TV shows.
At noon, Gu Junxing specially called to remind her not to forget about lunch.
The hotel had abundant dining options, so Nian Suian didn't bother looking at takeout and instead ordered directly from the hotel to be delivered to her door.
When she opened the door to get her meal, she happened to see the door of the adjacent room open as well, and the two people she had encountered in the elevator yesterday came out one after another.
The one walking behind was the man who had tried to chat up Gu Junxing in the elevator yesterday. Today he looked rather haggard and stumbled as he walked out, but the man in front steadied him.
"I told you to rest more, why are you being so stubborn?"
Nian Suian mentally went "wow," realizing their night must have been quite "intense."
The two men naturally noticed Nian Suian as well.
"Little sister, where's your husband?"
Nian Suian really hadn't expected that he could barely walk straight yet still dared to think about Gu Junxing in front of his "boyfriend"!
Sure enough, as soon as the man finished speaking, before Nian Suian could respond, the other man pulled him back into the room.
"I don't think you're going anywhere today."
...
Seeing this situation, Nian Suian gave a helpless look to the server pushing the food cart, who returned a knowing smile, seemingly quite used to such scenes, then pushed the cart in to set up her meal.
After lunch, Nian Suian sat on the balcony for a while. The room was on the hotel's top floor, offering a beautiful view of the ocean from the balcony.
If only there weren't some strange noises...
The door to the neighboring balcony might not have been properly closed, allowing some sounds to leak out...
Nian Suian had no interest in listening to a live broadcast, and couldn't enjoy the ocean view anymore. She awkwardly went back inside and firmly closed her balcony door.
Just after four in the afternoon, Gu Junxing returned.
"I'm back. You didn't forget to eat lunch, did you?"
"No, I didn't forget. I had steak and dessert. You're back early! Did everything go smoothly?"
"I'm not like them."
Nian Suian smiled, "Yes, you're different. You're a Party member." Although business inevitably involved calculations, how one calculated and who one targeted made all the difference.
"You even know about that? Did Butler Su tell you?"
"Yes, he told me shortly after we got married."
Gu Junxing hadn't expected Butler Su to reveal even that, "He must have spilled all my secrets."
Nian Suian didn't know what other secrets Gu Junxing might have, so she asked, "Do you have any secrets I don't know about?"
"I never had any secrets."
"That's not true. What about that first love story from before?"
"What first love? I already told you last time, that was just Fang Anzhi making things up."
Mentioning Fang Anzhi reminded Nian Suian of something.
"I know now! I shouldn't ask Butler Su about your past, I should ask Fang Anzhi!"
Fang Anzhi had grown up with Gu Junxing since childhood, he must know all the secrets.

Gu Junxing, unable to scold his wife, could only silently pray that Fang Anzhi would never appear before Nian Suian.
However, he still needed to warn her, "Fang Anzhi is an old fox. Don't take what he says too seriously."
"Really? You're not just saying that because you're afraid he'll tell me something about you, are you?"
"I'm serious." Then Gu Junxing gave a rare genuine compliment, "If he actually focused on business, I might not be able to match him."
"He's that capable?!" Although Nian Suian had felt Fang Anzhi wasn't simple when she first met him, hearing Gu Junxing say this still surprised her.
"He's very clever, but his ambitions lie elsewhere." After just two compliments, Gu Junxing couldn't help himself, "He puts all his energy into chasing women."
Hearing this, Nian Suian casually remarked, "He's so good-looking, who knows who's chasing whom..."
"You think he's good-looking?!"
"Huh? Wouldn't it be too hypocritical if I said he was ugly?"
