Lu Zhi was speechless.

Jiang Yining remained completely unaware of the change in the person beside her as she continued to talk while eating her porridge, saying, “I still want to have Chinese food. We’ll be in Sweden for a week. How about hiring a Chinese chef? I’ll pay.”

Lu Zhi was still pondering over her story about being bitten by a dog, and his grip on the cup tightened involuntarily.

There was a faint, squeaky noise in the living room.

Jiang Yining had a keen hearing and noticed the sound. She asked curiously, “Is there a mouse here? Is it chewing on something?”

Lu Zhi smiled slightly, though the smile didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Why would there be mice? You must have heard wrong.”

“Oh, maybe I did,” Jiang Yining quickly shifted her attention. She asked with a brilliant smile, “By the way, where are we going today?”

“I’ve already planned an itinerary. Just follow me.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Yining was quite excited, looking forward to seeing the landscapes of Sweden, her eyes sparkling.

After a quick breakfast, the two of them packed up and set off from the castle. They traveled by car to various famous landmarks in Sweden for sightseeing.

Lu’s father had even arranged a photographer to accompany them throughout the day to take pictures.

Jiang Yining wasn’t fond of having her picture taken, but Lu Zhi convinced her by saying they needed photos to show the old folks.

They had a great day out. They explored famous places and enjoyed the scenic beauty.

In the evening, they found a Chinese restaurant and had dinner together. Jiang Yining ordered her favorite dishes, handed the menu to Lu Zhi, and then rested her chin on her hands, gazing contentedly at the view outside the window.

It was already nighttime, and the streets were decorated with lights. Pedestrians strolled around in pairs, and on the gently flowing river, boatmen rowed their boats, carrying passengers forward.

Everything was so beautiful.

In the midst of it all, she was almost able to forget all her troubles.

However, what she didn’t know was that, as she was enjoying the scenery, others also regarded her as part of the picturesque view.

Jiang Yining was already beautiful, and the orange light in the restaurant accentuated her beauty, highlighting her exquisite, fair skin.

Lu Zhi gazed at her but remained silent.

Not far from the two of them, a tall, slim Caucasian man with golden hair and blue eyes was chatting animatedly with his friends.

In the end, they all agreed that Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi were siblings. How else could they sit together politely without any signs of intimacy?

So, encouraged by his friends, the man shyly approached with a bouquet of roses and asked, “Miss, you look stunning tonight. I want to give you this bouquet.”

Jiang Yining was momentarily puzzled and naturally accepted the bouquet, asking, “How much does it cost?”

She thought the man was a flower vendor.

“It’s free. I like you, so I’m giving it to you,” the man said with a deep, affectionate gaze in his azure eyes, almost overflowing with love.

Lu Zhi’s face instantly darkened. Did the man not see that he was sitting right there? How dare he flirt with his wife right in front of him? Was he looking for trouble?

Jiang Yining didn’t expect someone to confess their feelings to her during their first meeting as strangers. Foreigners were indeed more direct than the Chinese.

Jiang Yining smiled slightly, expressing her apology, “I’m glad you like me, but I already have a husband sitting across from me.”

She pointed to Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi’s icy expression softened slightly.

The man looked at Lu Zhi, smiled heartily, and said, “Miss, this should be your brother, right? I observed you both from the moment you came in. Besides occasional conversations, there was almost no intimacy between you. He didn’t even give you a single kiss. Normal couples wouldn’t be so distant. You don’t want to accept me, but there’s no need to deceive me like this.”

As he finished speaking… Lu Zhi stood up, pushed him away with one hand, walked over to Jiang Yining, cradled her face, and kissed her.

The man was left speechless.

Jiang Yining was somewhat speechless at Lu Zhi’s childish actions.

However, she raised her left hand to show her ring to the man and said, “I really am married.”

“Alright, that’s a shame. I liked you the moment I saw you,” the man shrugged, then turned to Lu Zhi and added, “I’m sorry. I thought you were her brother, that’s why I approached. I have to admit, you’re a lucky guy to have such a beautiful wife.”

“I know that without you telling me,” Lu Zhi said coldly. “Please leave and don’t disturb me and my wife.”

“OK.”

The man, realizing his mistake, didn’t linger and turned to go back to his friends.

The waitstaff brought their food to the table, and after taking a sip of juice, Jiang Yining thought about the earlier incident and said with a smile, “Why did you make such a fuss with a stranger?”

“Are you happy to be confessed to?” Lu Zhi’s gaze swept over her indifferently, with a hint of suppressing dominance.

Jiang Yining nodded, “Who wouldn’t be happy when a handsome guy likes them?”

Upon hearing this, the temperature around Lu Zhi instantly dropped to freezing point.

Seeing his reaction, Jiang Yining couldn’t help but laugh.

“Lu Zhi, don’t act like a sourpuss. We’re just pretending to be a couple.”

Lu Zhi’s voice was cold and dry as he replied, “Even if it’s pretend, you should be careful. Otherwise, if someone captures embarrassing photos, I’d be the one to be ridiculed.”

Jiang Yining quickly straightened up, saying seriously, “Okay, I got it. I won’t do that in the future.”

Lu Zhi remained silent.

The two finished their dinner, and Jiang Yining still held the flowers the man had given her.

Without any hesitation, Lu Zhi threw the roses into the trash can and dragged her to the nearest flower shop.

He told the shopkeeper, “Give me the largest bouquet you have, something she can’t hold.”

The shopkeeper was astonished.

Jiang Yining knew he was still angry and reassured the shopkeeper, “Just give me ninety-nine roses. There’s no need to go overboard.”

The shopkeeper glanced at Lu Zhi, and he grudgingly accepted her explanation..
