Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The news of Lu Rou and Lu Zhen’s boyfriend cheating quickly became the top trending topic on the entertainment rankings. In just ten minutes, the discussion value exceeded 100 million.

The public opinion on the Internet continued to ferment, and Lu Zhen’s cell phone began to ring. Lu Zhen turned her phone on silent and could not be bothered with the Lu family’s phone bombardment.

Now they knew how to be anxious?

Too late!

The dark clouds in the sky became lower and lower, accompanied by muffled thunder. Soon, heavy rain poured down, as if the sea was flowing backward, and the entire world was enveloped by heavy rain.

The doorbell rang. Lu Zhen got up and opened the door. As soon as the door opened, she saw the drenched Ghost outside.

“Why didn’t you bring an umbrella? Didn’t you read the weather forecast when you went out? Didn’t I say that you didn’t have to come over today?” Lu Zhen took out a dry towel and handed it to Ghost.

“I didn’t think it would rain so hard, either,” the Ghost said, and immediately sneezed.

Lu Zhen was a little helpless. She pointed at the bathroom. “Go take a hot shower. I’ll cook you some ginger soup.”

Lu Zhen went to the cloakroom to look for clothes again. Fortunately, the sponsors had sent a lot of clothes, including some boyfriend-style loose shirts. She chose a basic shirt and home pants for Ghost. After sending them to the bathroom, she went to cook ginger soup.

Ghost finished showering quickly. He was in his shirt, unbuttoned, when he heard the doorbell ring. Ghost didn’t think much of it. He was drying his hair with a towel as he went to answer the door.

The door opened. Ghost and the man standing outside looked at each other for a few seconds. There was an eerie silence in the air.

Lu Zhen also walked out of the kitchen in an apron. “Who is it?” Just as Lu Zhen said this, she saw Song Jia standing outside the door.

Song Jia looked at Ghost, whose hair was still dripping. He looked down and saw his bare chest. After a few seconds of silence, he nodded at Lu Zhen. “Sorry to disturb you.”

With that, Song Jia turned around and entered his house before closing the door.

Lu Zhen: What disturbance? What is Song Jia talking about?

Ghost looked at Lu Zhen innocently. “Sister, is this your neighbor?”

Lu Zhen looked at Ghost, who had just taken a shower, and a terrifying thought flashed across her mind. Could Song Jia have misunderstood her and Ghost?

At this moment, Ghost indeed looked like she had just come out of the shower after passion. If Lu Zhen knocked on Song Jia’s door and saw a woman who had just taken a shower, she would probably have misunderstood.

Oh no! How was she going to explain this?!

Lu Zhen looked at Ghost helplessly with a long face. “Why did you open the door? Forget it, drink the ginger soup first. Don’t catch a cold.”

Lu Zhen scooped the cooked ginger soup into a bowl. Ghost took a small sip and his face immediately wrinkled into a bitter melon. “Ah, it tastes so bad. It’s so spicy! Sister, I don’t want to drink it…”

“I cooked it for you for twenty minutes. Aren’t you going to drink it?” Lu Zhen threw the apron on the table. “What if you catch a cold if you don’t drink it?” “I’m strong,” Ghost whispered. “How can I get sick so easily?”

“You young people just don’t know how to cherish your body. Health is the capital of the revolution. Don’t you understand this logic?” Lu Zhen turned around and took out the can of sugar, putting two spoonfuls of sugar into the ginger soup. “Alright, it’s sweet now. Drink it.”

Ghost had no choice but to pick up the bowl and finish the ginger soup with a frown.

The ginger soup with sugar was even worse than before. Ghost finished it and looked at Lu Zhen aggrievedly. “I feel like my tongue is about to malfunction.”

Ghost’s innocent and pitiful expression was really like a cute large dog. Lu Zhen couldn’t help but pat his golden head. “It’s better than being sick. Go and rest for a while. Teach me how to practice later.”

Feeling Lu Zhen’s palm gently pat his head, Ghost’s heart itched. He even wanted to be touched by Lu Zhen again.

After a while, the two of them sat on the sofa. Lu Zhen was seriously choosing a hero in the game. After choosing the hero, she took a sip of flower tea while the game was loading. At this moment, Ghost suddenly said, “Sister, I heard that your boyfriend and your sister cheated?”

Lu Zhen almost spat out a mouthful of water. She turned to look at Ghost. “Why are children watching entertainment news all day? Stop watching all that nonsense.”

“I’m not a child!” Ghost was a little crazy.. Lu Zhen was only a few months older than him, so why did she always treat him like a child! “Also, how can anything related to you be called nonsense? Sister, are you very sad now?”
