The next day, Lu Jinnian woke up early to head to the office. When he drove past Xu Jiamu's villa, he purposely slowed down. Through the car window, he could see the golden rays of the sun shining down on the roof.
Perhaps it was because of his conversation with Qiao Anhao last night, but today, Lu Jinnian was in a good mood. After he finished his work, he stood in front of the tall windows with a cup of coffee in hand. He thought back to their conversation last night, word by word, over and over again in his mind.
Actually, the conversation last night didn't have any special meaning, but in the end, the corners of his lips lifted slightly.
He even felt that the road from the villa to the entrance of Mian Xiu Garden, which he had walked countless times, had become a little cute.
Lu Jinnian thought for a long while. When he lowered his head to drink his coffee, there was a knock on the office door. Lu Jinnian swallowed the coffee in his mouth, and in a calm voice, he said, "Come in."
The door was pushed open. It was his assistant, holding a document in his hands. "Mr. Lu, I need your signature."
Lu Jinnian turned back to his desk and placed his coffee cup down. He took the document and flipped through it. Then, he pulled out a pen from the pen basket, signed it, and passed it to his assistant.
The assistant took the document with both hands and said, "Oh, right, Mr. Lu, there's one more thing. The television station contacted Miss Qiao about the variety show you arranged for her to film on the ninth of this month. If you don't have any objections, I'll send someone to inform Miss Qiao and let her prepare."
"Yea..." Lu Jinnian replied naturally. When the assistant turned to leave with the documents, he suddenly said, "Wait."
The assistant stopped in his tracks in confusion, turning back. "Mr. Lu, is there anything else?"
Lu Jinnian paused for a moment, then said, "Let me inform her."
Initially, the assistant didn't react. After a second, he understood what Lu Jinnian was referring to. He immediately nodded and said respectfully, "Understood, Mr. Lu."
Lu Jinnian waited for the assistant to leave and close the door. Then, he picked up the phone on the table and keyed in the eleven digits that he had been keying in for the past twenty days.
It was easy to feel uncomfortable on the first day of her period, so Qiao Anhao stayed in bed all the way until noon.
In Xu Jiamu's villa, there was a small home theater. After lunch, she was bored, so she found a movie to watch.
When the movie was about to end, Xu Jiamu called to apologize for leaving for no reason the night before.
Over the phone, Xu Jiamu's voice sounded a little strange. Before Qiao Anhao could ask further, he hung up.
Just as she placed the phone on the sofa, it rang again. She thought it was Xu Jiamu apologizing for hanging up on her, so she deliberately waited for the phone to ring a few more times before picking it up. In the end, she saw Lu Jinnian's name flash on the screen. Her expression froze for a moment, then she picked it up and softly said "Hello".
"It's me." Lu Jinnian's usual cold voice traveled steadily into Qiao Anhao's ears.
Qiao Anhao's fingers tightened around her phone, and she let out a soft "Mhm" before asking politely, "What's the matter?"
