Even though Qiao Anhao had asked Zhao Meng to come over earlier, when she arrived, it was already close to eleven in the afternoon.
Zhao Meng didn't drive in, instead, she parked the car at the entrance of the villa.
Qiao Anhao said goodbye to Madam Chen and walked out with her bag. At this moment, Zhao Meng had already turned the car around, stopping by the road opposite the entrance.
Just as Qiao Anhao was about to cross the road, a Mercedes-Benz stopped at the entrance of the villa. She hurriedly stopped and was about to walk around the car when she saw the door open. Lu Jinnian's assistant got out of the passenger seat and walked two steps back to open the back door.
Lu Jinnian got out of the car and walked two steps forward. When he saw Qiao Anhao standing at the entrance of the villa, his footsteps instantly stopped.
The two of them were separated by about a meter, and neither of them spoke to the other first.
The assistant didn't notice the situation behind him. He bent over and paid the driver. When he turned around, he saw Lu Jinnian standing there without moving. He couldn't help but call out in confusion, "Mr. Lu?"
He took two steps forward and saw Qiao Anhao standing in front of Lu Jinnian. He immediately greeted her politely, "Hello, Miss Qiao."
Qiao Anhao snapped back to her senses and nodded slightly at the assistant. She didn't look at Lu Jinnian again, but grabbed her bag tightly. She took two steps to the side and walked away from Lu Jinnian, heading towards the opposite street.
Qiao Anhao was in a hurry to leave, so she didn't notice that the car he had called had already started to move. She almost crashed into it, but thankfully, he reacted in time, grabbing onto her arm and forcefully pulling her two steps back. Then, the car slowly drove off in front of her.
The assistant jumped in shock. He looked at the pale Qiao Anhao and asked, "Miss Qiao, are you okay?"
Qiao Anhao forced herself to calm down. She shook her head at the assistant, then realized that her arm was still held by Lu Jinnian. His palm was dry and warm.
Qiao Anhao's body froze for a moment. She lifted her head and glanced at him. He had his head lowered, his pitch-black eyes staring at her. She instinctively lowered her eyes, hesitating for a moment. Then she pulled her arm out of his grasp, and without a word, she lowered her head and walked towards the opposite street.
Lu Jinnian's hand froze in mid-air, as though he was holding onto something, his gaze fixed on Qiao Anhao's figure.
Qiao Anhao pulled the car door open. Zhao Meng, who was on the phone, turned her head, blew a kiss inside, and hung up the phone. She started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and left.
The car made a turn at the intersection in front and completely disappeared, but Lu Jinnian was still standing there in a daze.
Lu Jinnian's assistant, who had been with him for many years, sensed that something was wrong. He tactfully took a few steps away from him, pretending to be deaf and mute.
After a long while, Lu Jinnian's beautiful eyes gently blinked. He pulled his gaze back from the distance, then let his arm down. He calmly turned his head, and without a word, walked towards the villa.
The assistant waited for Lu Jinnian to walk a distance away before taking a step forward. Based on his many years of experience, even though Lu Jinnian looked calm and quiet, he was actually in a bad mood.
