Business genius Lu Zichu has a well-known eccentricity. Under the Lu Group, there is a famous modeling agency that introduces trendy wedding dresses every season, every three months. The models walking the runway wearing wedding dresses share a common characteristic: their eyes and smiles are gentle, and they possess a versatile charm suitable for different settings. Only at this time, the usually expressionless Mr. Lu would occasionally reveal a smile. It is rumored that "Mr. Lu must be harboring a woman in his heart, and he has not forgotten her after all these years." No one expected that one day, he would bring a mentally ill woman by his side and take care of her attentively. Some classmates said, "Six years ago, they were college sweethearts. It's unbelievable that he still treats her the same after all these years. It's not easy for a man to be so devoted." He called her "Asheng" and cared for her meticulously. Later, people understood that to please Lu Zichu, one must first please Asheng. Later, someone exposed Asheng's marital status: married, with a American-Chinese husband. It caused an uproar. People criticized Lu Zichu and Asheng. She timidly grabbed his sleeve, and he protected her in his embrace, saying, "Don't be afraid." Some said that Lu Zichu had gone crazy, willingly falling into ruin and sacrificing his reputation for a madwoman. Asheng's brother, Gu Cheng, said to her, "He can never love you again, and if you were sober, you would never love him again." A car accident gradually revealed the secrets buried by time. By then, she had regained her clarity and composure, saying, "Zichu, sometimes living crazily is also a kind of happiness, isn't it?" He cried, and she smiled. It turned out that in the world of love, they were both complete fools. In the study, Asheng recited poems from Tagore's collection, "Once we dreamt that we were strangers to each other, but when we woke up, we realized that we were deeply in love." She looked at him and asked if he agreed with that statement. "I don't agree," Mr. Lu shifted his gaze from the computer screen, "when I dream of you, you are not a stranger to me. I wouldn't satisfy my physical desires with a stranger early in the morning." "...", Asheng fell silent. Indeed, there was no way to communicate! (Bookmark this webpage.
