After my divorce, I became a lucky super-rich person.

Chapter 28 is getting me hooked.

Perhaps surprised by Chen Jiang's directness, Gao Wen was caught off guard for a moment. It took her several seconds to recover from her daze, and she looked up at Chen Jiang, surprisingly nodding slightly.

"There should be...some, I think."

"Actually, I'm not entirely sure either. It's just that after you saved me, I suddenly felt safe only when you were by my side, so..."

"That's not really liking it, it's more like a suspension bridge reaction caused by a rapid release of hormones after you were startled... You've probably heard of this, right?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.

More than this situation, he was afraid that Gao Wen had actually fallen in love with him.

He's rich, has plenty of free time, and isn't short of women, so there's no need for him to get involved with a love-struck woman and cause trouble for himself.

Now that it's clear that Gao Wen experienced the suspension bridge reaction after being frightened, the matter is much easier to resolve.

"I noticed you seemed a bit off when I was on set. It turns out something's wrong."

"However, the suspension bridge reaction is not a big problem. You are still in a tense state, which is why you have become dependent on me who saved you. You should just rest for a while and calm down, and you will return to normal."

Chen Jiang hesitated for a moment, then said:

"In that case, it's probably not safe for you to go anywhere else. I'll take you back to my place so you can rest there and avoid all the trouble."

"it is good."

Gao Wen was in a state of great inner turmoil at that moment.

Just now, she thought she had fallen for Chen Jiang, otherwise why would her heart race and her eyes be glued to him whenever she saw him?

But now, after Chen Jiang said that, she felt that what he said made a lot of sense, because she had also heard of suspension bridge reactions.

So... her current abnormality is all due to the suspension bridge reaction?

She wasn't quite sure.

Chen Jiang didn't dwell on it too much. His way of doing things was to solve problems as soon as they arose. He didn't like to get caught up in the causes and consequences, otherwise he would have been overwhelmed by the pressure over the past few years.

After taking Gao Wen out of the mall, it wasn't really appropriate for him to go back to his own home, since Nina would be going back that night if nothing unexpected happened. So, Chen Jiang simply took Gao Wen to his new mansion.

Gao Wen walked behind Chen Jiang, somewhat shocked, until they entered the living room, where she looked out at the sea view through the floor-to-ceiling windows and the swimming pool on the balcony:

"Chen Jiang, is this your house?"

"Yes, it's mine, but I've never actually lived here."

Chen Jiang casually took off his shoes, lay down on the sofa, and watched Gao Wen walk around the room. Curious, he asked:

"Why do you look so naive... You're not a big star, are you? You don't own any mansions, do you?"

"Are you mistaken about me?" Gao Wen said speechlessly, "How could I afford such a luxurious house? I was nobody before, and I've only been famous for less than two years. Being able to buy a decent apartment is already quite an achievement."

As she spoke, Gao Wen walked over, sat down on the sofa, looked at Chen Jiang, and suddenly fell silent.

Chen Jiang felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, and quickly asked:

"How are you feeling now that we're here? Are you feeling a little better?"

Gao Wen shook her head and touched her chest:

"I'm still a little nervous..."

"Then go to your room and rest for a while. If it really doesn't work, I'll take you to the hospital." Chen Jiang was also a bit at a loss, not knowing what to do.

Gao Wen shook her head:

"I'm not tired yet."

Chen Jiang refused to give up:

"Are you hungry? Thirsty? Is there anything you'd like to do?"

Gao Wen still shook her head:

"I'm not thirsty or hungry, I feel pretty good right now."

"Let's leave it at that for now..."

He was at his wit's end. Chen Jiang sighed, feeling utterly exhausted. He simply put his phone aside and closed his eyes to rest.

But after only two or three minutes of closing his eyes, he suddenly felt the sofa next to him soften, and then a body with a faint fragrance approached him and pressed against his shoulder.

Chen Jiang opened his eyes and, sure enough, Gao Wen, who had been sitting on the opposite sofa, had somehow moved to his side and their eyes met.

After a two-second silence, Chen Jiang asked:

"What are you doing?"

Gao Wen didn't really know what was wrong with her, but she couldn't control her urge to get closer to Chen Jiang, so she moved closer. When Chen Jiang asked her question, her mind raced, and she gave a suitable reason:

"I feel more comfortable this way..."

"..."

Chen Jiang didn't speak, which was taken as tacit agreement. He closed his eyes again, but soon opened them again helplessly.

It's one thing for Gao Wen to lean on me, but why is she touching me all over?

Why are you touching me?

"this......"

Gao Wen stubbornly insisted, "I feel comfortable this way..."

"The problem is I'm not feeling well." Chen Jiang couldn't take it anymore, turned over and looked at Gao Wen: "I'll take you to the hospital, don't let it get worse, or I'll end up taking the blame."

"No!" Seeing that Chen Jiang was about to get serious, Gao Wen became a little anxious. She pulled Chen Jiang back down to sit on the sofa and pounced on him this time. "If we go to the hospital, people will definitely recognize us, and that will be troublesome."

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

Chen Jiang was starting to despair.

If it were anyone else, he wouldn't care about the suspension bridge effect or anything like that; he would have taken advantage of such flirting long ago.

The key issue is that Gao Wen not only has a troublesome identity, but she is also definitely not someone who can be easily dealt with. If you really go for it, you will inevitably face a lot of follow-up issues. It's impossible for her to be as simple and straightforward as Nina.

Gao Wen, however, had no idea what Chen Jiang was thinking at that moment. As if she had thought of something, her face suddenly turned red again.

"Actually... I don't even know if I'm experiencing the suspension bridge reaction you're talking about..."

"Chen Jiang, do you think it's possible that I've really fallen for you?"

"It's possible for her to like me, but it's probably very unlikely." Chen Jiang said this nonsense, sighed, sat up and looked Gao Wen straight in the eye: "Don't overthink it, you big star, there's no way we can be together."

Gao Wen didn't understand:

"What's impossible about it? You think I'm not good enough to be your girlfriend?"

Seeing that the other party seemed quite serious, Chen Jiang had no choice but to patiently explain:

"Let's put aside whether your current situation is right or wrong, and whether your feelings are genuine."

"Take me for example. I've only been divorced for a few days, so I'm really not in the mood for this love-at-first-sight game with you. Of course, if you're willing to have a friendly match with me, I'm all for it."

"Secondly, even if you don't care about my situation, I still can't accept my girlfriend talking about love with other people on TV every day. Do you understand what I mean?"

Gao Wen was getting a little anxious:

"But that was all just acting. I've always used a body double. I still have my first kiss."

"Since you're already divorced, that's not a problem anymore. Why can't it be?"

Chen Jiang was genuinely having a headache. He was annoyed by the woman's unreasonable and nagging manner, and he was becoming somewhat irritable.

"Don't you understand what I mean? I'm saying we're not a good match."

"But there's nothing wrong with it, and how can you be sure it's not suitable if you haven't even tried it?"

Gao Wen also became somewhat agitated. As a top-tier actress, she was saying such things as offering herself up, and this man could still refuse? He really looked down on her.

Chen Jiang was so angry he laughed. He simply stood up, quickly took off his shirt, and pointed to the bedroom with bare arms:

"If that's how you put it, then I don't care. Let's go to the bedroom... Dare you?"

"What's there to be afraid of?"

Gao Wen was completely enraged. She gritted her teeth, pulled Chen Jiang into the bedroom, and slammed the door shut, cutting off all noise from inside and outside.
