+—-Author’s note—–+

Thank you very much for all the people who had been supporting me until now. ??

My goal is to get into the featured category in the upcoming months.

We’ve already went through such a long journey, but there is still more awaiting us.

So wish us luck and stay tuned! ??

Aoi Hong opened her eyes wide, switching between Lu Kai and Silika Lin. He had a fiance?! She suddenly thought how the gullible doctor had to be scammed or forced into a relationship by his parents like in the novels she read. Silika looked like a typical hoe with plastic surgery and tons of make-up, similarly to the women that had been sticking to Quin Yu the whole night! Was Silika feeling jealous? Her lips pursed in pain, “Madam don’t misunderstand...there... there’s nothing between us. We... we are just friends, right doctor?”

“Miss, I have no idea who you are. We heard you asking for help, and decided to help out,” Lu Kai separated their hands. Why did he suddenly replace women near Bing Shi more irking to the eyes than men? Maybe because Bing Shi decided to help Aoi Hong out? No, he felt as if his existence was suddenly ignored. “If you don’t mind, we’ll drop you at the nearest police station.”

“Thank you.” Aoi Hong held her hand, thinking that Lu Kai didn’t like how the jealous Silika caused pain to her hand, and decided to help her out again. Such a kind man. The alcohol she poured down her throat before Quin Yu began to kick in.

.....

Bing Shi cleaned her hands with a wet wipe, dismissing the strange gaze coming from Aoi Hong. Aoi Hong successfully interrupted the meeting between Quin Yu and the female lead. What surprised her was that Aoi Hong suddenly wanted to kiss Lu Kai. If Aoi Hong ran into the wrong group, a disaster would happen. No, not to her. With her luck, she would get out unscathed. But the opposite side would get a taste of Quin Yu’s wrath.

Lu Kai pushed Aoi Hong’s face against the car window in time, he locked her limbs in place, “See? I told you. This girl’s luck is undeniably high.”

That girl, as if on a heat, started to squirm and moan, “Hot... hot... so hot.”

“I wanted to see it myself,” Bing Shi placed her smartphone with a lottery ticket below Aoi Hong’s hand, letting Aoi Hong’s fingers tap on random numbers, she crossed her fingers and chanted silently, “Jackpot. Jackpot. Jackpot....”

“...” Hardly keeping his poker face, Lu Kai rushed the driver to speed up. He was just about to enjoy their alone time. Why couldn’t he just say NO? Try to resist Bing Shi’s wishes, and one would know how difficult it was to respond with a NO.

Stopping before a police station, Lu Kai gave Aoi Hong back to Quin Yu, who had been following them this whole time. She didn’t think through things much, did she? Aoi Hong was under an impression that he was Quin Yu’s personal doctor, so what made her think that he would help her escape? Did she think that she was inside a novel?

Compared to Aoi Hong, Quin Yu’s luck wasn’t the best. That was the first time a woman dared to throw up on him!

Back in the car, Bing Shi sat on Lu Kai’s lap, closing her eyes for a quick nap, “You are like a second male lead who always comes to a female lead’s rescue, then offers her back to the male lead. So kind, so gentle. Ah, I’m swoon. I can’t help but think that I’m the luckiest human in the universe. Shall I try to win a lottery too?”

“Don’t you have enough money?” Lu Kai patted her back. She sat on his lap a lot. Must be their past habit. Why did he think that if this woman wanted, she would be able to tame both the male lead and the villain? There was no doubt that she mastered the art of timing.

“Darling, it’s not about money but the feeling of winning a lottery.”

“If you’re like Xue Bi, then your luck and misfortune come hand in hand. I don’t want you to die of cancer just because you wasted all your luck on a lottery ticket.” Lu Kai caressed her hair.

“So true,” Bing Shi nodded her head, “Today was fun.”

“Mm, it was,” Lu Kai agreed. It’s been a while since he felt so alive. Taking a quick nap together, he was so excited to spend the next day with her.

Civil Affairs Office...

Lu Kai and Bing Shi studied their marriage certificates in their hands as they walked back to the car in silence.

When they reached the airport, another private car took them to their boarding gates. Unable to fall asleep around a group of people, they could only wait for the plane to land.

The moment they reached his apartment, they took a quick shower and dropped dead tired on the bed. Their first experience as newlyweds ended just like that. Lu Kai planned to return this small apartment that he rented out when he first appeared in this world, but because he traveled between the two countries a lot, he decided to keep it.

The next day, Lu Kai left for work while Bing Shi stayed back. Watching him through a spy camera, she woke up her inner fan-girl whenever she heard him talk about his nuclear fusion project, comprehending only a small percentage of what he was saying.

Nuclear fusion was a process that powered the stars. When two atoms fused into one, they’d release an enormous amount of energy. It could only happen under tremendous heat and pressure. It was hard to recreate stably on Earth.

Something that could provide the world with near-limitless clean, eco-friendly energy with little to zero radioactive waste, garnered attention not only of the government but also private investors from across the world. Lu Kai and a team of energy experts figured out how to harness the power of nuclear fusion faster than their competitors, which Lu Kai proved with their successful experiments by using their models.

Lu Kai’s invention garnered funds from a consortium of several nations and alliances. But it was not enough. His plan was also to take control of his competitors whose investments exceeded 25 billion dollars and unite them together to create the largest science project on the planet. That’s what he occupied himself with while waiting for Bing Shi... Now that she was finally here, he’d have to reconsider his future plans.

Jumping on the bed in excitement, Bing Shi immediately bought all science magazines with Lu Kai’s publications from that day onwards. He was a huge celebrity among science lovers, while for the majority of the regular public, he was still unknown. It had to be due to no photos, and his products being an internal part of other big brands and companies. Or else, she was sure someone would write an article about ‘The sexiest scientist alive’.

Four days after...

Lu Kai woke up with a wide boyish grin, careful not to wake the great beauty in his arms. She was like sugar in poison and he loved the taste. He could feel her with all of his senses. She was here, real, and breathing.

“Gooood Morniiiing,” Bing Shi struggled out of his hold, jumped off the bed, and ran towards the bathroom.

“Morning...?” Lu Kai got out of the bed faster and ran to use the bathroom first.

“Noooo. Hurryyyyyy,” Bing Shi jumped on the spot, “Hurry, Hurry, Hurry. You were awake the whole time! Why didn’t you use the toilet sooner? The etiquette says ladies first!”

“I didn’t want to wake you up,” Lu Kai flushed the toilet and opened the door for her like a gentleman, “My lady.”

Bing Shi dashed inside. When they say there was always a child in every adult, it was the complete truth. Because she had so much fun teasing him, he retaliated in all ways possible.

Stepping out of the bathroom Bing Shi went to continue organizing his apartment while Lu Kai followed her around with a toothbrush in his mouth, “It’s a bit messy.”

“A bit?” Bing Shi narrowed her eyes as she picked up his keys from a flower pot and hooked them at the key holder near the entrance which she bought from a store closeby. Xuan Mu never bothered to organize his stuff. He could remember where he placed his things even from five years ago. She on the other hand couldn’t function normally when her keys weren’t at their designated spots. So whenever she saw him toss his keys randomly at the couch or behind a statue, she would get a small heart attack. What if they get stuck inside the couch and he would be unable to replace them, ever?!

“...” Lu Kai kept his thoughts for himself and went to prepare a simple breakfast. Giving Bing Shi a protein shake, he asked if she wanted to get some exercise in his garage near this apartment complex.
