She's not within your reach

"I didn't mean to hide it from you." Lu Chu Yao's voice was low.

If anyone else saw the current situation, they would probably be in shock. Since when the high and mighty Lu Chu Yao would admit defeat? He was even prepared to explain the situation.

"So, you're still in contact with them?" Ning Sheng was getting angrier and angrier.

Lu Chu Yao's eyebrows twitched when he heard this.

Contact? With them? Did she mean his childhood friend?

Of course, if his wife didn't like him hanging out with those people, he would have no trouble stopping himself from contacting them. After all, those two were constantly disturbing him too.

At that moment, Mu Xian Chu and Li Chen sneezed at the same time in the capital.

"If you don't want me to keep in contact with them, that's what I will do."

"What do you mean by if I don't want you to keep in contact with them? Lu Chu Yao, I know that you only married me because it was your mother's last wish for you to find a good wife. But now that we are married, can you at least do what is right? Why are you still hanging out with those women from before? You even accepted their gift and gave it to me? The clothes I'm wearing are from them also right?"

Ning Sheng was really angry and it could be seen on her flushed cheek. Her voice was no longer soft but replaced with a rough and low tone.

Lu Chu Yao finally realized what Ning Sheng was talking about.

Ning Sheng had thought that the clothes she was wearing, as well as the ring and bracelet, were from his 'female client'. She thought he had given her their gifts.

He probably shouldn't have said he was a gigolo from a nightclub in the first place. 

"Ning Sheng, calm down. I think you are misunderstanding the situation." Lu Chu Yao said.

He had never coaxed a woman before, so he had no idea how to do it. Besides, this woman had never acted this way before.

"Then explain it to me." Ning Sheng said.

Lu Chu Yao smiled, "Have you never thought that perhaps I am the rich one?"

Ning Sheng was speechless.

"Have you never thought that I might be the third young master of the Lu family, the richest man in the world, and the person in charge of Xi Yao?" Lu Chu Yao asked with a hint of teasing.

"I've never thought about it." Ning Sheng shook her head slightly.

"Why?"

"You're are good-looking, and you also said that you're a gigolo!" Ning Sheng said. 

Lu Chu Yao covered his face with his palm as he heard his adorable wife explain.

"These things are not from anyone else. I gave them to you." Lu Chu Yao said before asking another question, "In your opinion, what should the richest man in the world look like?"

Ning Sheng tilted her head, "Definitely not someone like you. He should be really really old. Right? You just happen to have the same name as him. Right?" 

"And I think he could be quite ugly. He had never shown his face in public. There must be a reason so few people knew about him."

Lu Chu Yao was stunned. It turned out that his biggest anti-fan was his wife. Yet, he couldn't say anything that could make his wife believe him.

Ning Sheng was the top humanities student and had a high IQ. Why was she so clueless about who he was?

"Ning Sheng, I think you might have misunderstood the richest man in the country." Lu Chu Yao said.
