The moment Lu Jinnian finished his sentence, he felt like he was being a busybody. Without waiting for Qiao Anhao to reply, he said, "I don't need you to do this, you can leave."
His words were so hurtful that Qiao Anhao's face turned pale.
The nanny hurriedly tried to help Qiao Anhao out. "Mr. Lu, Miss Qiao is here to visit the old lady. The old lady was looking for you on New Year's Eve, but she got lost. Miss Qiao was the one who brought her back..."
Lu Jinnian didn't seem to be interested in what the nanny was saying. Without waiting for her to finish, he cut her off and said with an unquestionable tone, "Send the guest out."
Lu Jinnian's intention to send the guest out was so obvious, as though staying with her for another second was an unbearable thing. Qiao Anhao lowered her head awkwardly, her fingers clutching the hem of her skirt helplessly.
"Mr. Lu..." The nanny seemed to want to help Qiao Anhao say something, but Lu Jinnian didn't even want to listen. He strode towards the bedroom.
When he walked past Qiao Anhao, she called his name. "Lu Jinnian."
Lu Jinnian's footsteps hesitated slightly, but he didn't stop. He brushed past her and walked into the bedroom. Before he closed the door, he glanced at the nanny and said, "Why are you standing there in a daze? Hurry and send Miss Qiao away. "
Miss Qiao... This was the first time Qiao Anhao felt that those two words were so piercing to her ears, causing her body to tremble.
She instinctively turned her head, glancing at Lu Jinnian, who was behind her. However, he ignored her and closed the door.
The atmosphere in the room became a little awkward.
The nanny first smiled at Qiao Anhao, then as though to comfort her, she said, "Miss Qiao, don't take it to heart, Mr. Lu is just like that."
Qiao Anhao lowered her eyelids and said softly, "I'm fine."
Then, afraid that the nanny would be put in a difficult position, Qiao Anhao raised her head and smiled at her. "I'll leave first."
The nanny walked Qiao Anhao to the door, apologizing a few times in embarrassment.
The nanny waited for her to enter the elevator before closing the door. She tidied up the things he had bought, poured a glass of water, and walked to the bedroom. She knocked on the door before pushing it open.
The old lady had already taken an afternoon nap. Lu Jinnian sat by the side of the bed, staring out the window, thinking about something.
The nanny walked up to him and handed him a glass of water. Afraid to wake the old lady, she lowered her voice and said, "Mr. Lu, have some water."
Lu Jinnian took it and said calmly, "Thank you."
When Lu Jinnian took a sip, the nanny said in a small voice, "I've already sent Miss Qiao off."
Lu Jinnian paused for a moment, but the expression on his face didn't change in the slightest. He forcefully swallowed the water in his mouth, then leisurely removed the cup from his lips and passed it to the nanny beside him. He nodded, indicating that he understood what she had just said.
The nanny took the glass of water and left the bedroom.
Lu Jinnian sat in a daze for a while, then stood up and opened the floor-to-ceiling windows. He walked to the balcony and lit a cigarette.
With the smoke lingering around him, he looked slightly absent-minded.
