Qiao Anhao waited until her emotions had completely calmed down before standing up from the sofa. She grabbed a set of pajamas and walked into the bathroom. Qiao Anhao first ran the bath water, then stood in front of the sink to remove her makeup. When she finished washing her face, she picked up her toothbrush, ready to squeeze out some toothpaste. Through the sound of running water, she could faintly hear footsteps coming from outside.
Qiao Anhao froze instantly, her hand instinctively gripping her toothbrush tightly. She paused in front of the sink for a moment, then pushed open the bathroom door. With one glance, she saw Lu Jinnian standing in front of the sofa in the bedroom.
Qiao Anhao had been on tenterhooks for most of the night, wondering if Lu Jinnian would come back. It was only when she saw that it was already late that she relaxed. Now that she saw Lu Jinnian without any mental preparation, her heart froze. The familiar fear and nervousness drowned her heart.
Lu Jinnian seemed to have heard the sound of the door being pushed open. His head tilted slightly, and his emotionless gaze swept over Qiao Anhao.
Qiao Anhao trembled under his gaze. Instinctively, she retracted her gaze and hurriedly lowered her head. Even though she knew that if she opened her mouth to speak to him, he would most likely ignore her, she still hesitated for a moment. In a warm voice, she asked, "You're back?"
She gave him the top of her head again... She couldn't even be bothered to look at him... Lu Jinnian pursed his lips tightly, his cold gaze shifting away from her body. He didn't care about what she said at all, he raised his hands nonchalantly to undo the buttons on his suit.
Qiao Anhao was long used to Lu Jinnian ignoring her, but this time, she wasn't sure if it was because of what had happened three months ago, but the moment her words fell, she sensed a cold aura emanating from his body. Qiao Anhao became even more nervous and afraid, making her want to run away. She forcefully gripped her toothbrush, but in the end, she couldn't take it anymore and found an excuse to hide. "Erm, the bathwater might be ready, I'll go take a shower first."
Lu Jinnian still didn't have the slightest intention of replying to her. He tore off his suit jacket and casually threw it on the sofa beside him. He strode out of the master bedroom.
After a while, she snapped back to her senses. Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath and turned to walk back into the bathroom.
If she could, she really wanted to hide in the bathroom until he left Mian Xiu Garden. However, no matter how much she delayed, she still had to leave the bathroom.
The moment she opened the bathroom door, she saw Lu Jinnian, who had just finished showering in the room next door. He was in his pajamas, sitting in his usual spot on the bed with his hands behind his head, his eyes closed.
