Lu Jinnian ate dinner with the old lady and watched an old wuxia drama. After the nanny helped her shower and put her to bed, he left.
When Lu Jinnian stepped out of the elevator, he glanced at the time. It was already ten in the evening.
When he walked out of the apartment building, Lu Jinnian realized that it was snowing. It had been snowing for a while, and the surrounding evergreens were already covered in a thin layer of white.
Lu Jinnian walked down the stairs, the snow crunching as he stepped on it.
He walked to the side of the road, pulled out his car keys, and pressed the lock button. He saw a car not far away, its headlights flashing, and strode over.
Just as Lu Jinnian reached his car, he heard someone call his name. "Mr. Lu."
Lu Jinnian paused, turned his head, and saw his assistant standing under a street lamp across the road. He seemed to have been here for a while, the hat on his head was covered in a layer of white.
Lu Jinnian didn't say a word, but his footsteps stopped.
The assistant took large strides through the snow to stand in front of him. He stared at him, clearly agitated. "Mr. Lu, when did you come back? Why didn't you contact me? "
"Why are you here?" Lu Jinnian didn't answer the assistant's question, but asked with furrowed brows.
"My wife's relative lives in the building behind this apartment. We came to pay our New Year's greetings and haven't left yet after playing mahjong. I came downstairs to buy cigarettes, and coincidentally bumped into you." The assistant looked like he was answering Lu Jinnian's question honestly, but in his heart, he was thinking that his wife's relatives were all in Suzhou. Wasn't it all because of a call from Miss Qiao?
The assistant had known Lu Jinnian for so many years, but he had never lied to him. This was the first time. Even though his words were flawless, he still felt a little guilty. He was afraid that Lu Jinnian would notice something was wrong, so he quickly changed the topic. "Mr. Lu, are you free later? Can I have a drink if I'm not? "
Lu Jinnian didn't reject the assistant's suggestion. He nodded, pointed at his car, and strode over to the driver's seat.
After being Lu Jinnian's assistant for so many years, even though they hadn't seen each other for four months, there were still some habits that hadn't been changed. Seeing that Lu Jinnian had agreed, the assistant rushed over to open the car door for him. "Mr. Lu, please."
Lu Jinnian's hand, which was about to reach for the driver's door, paused for a moment. In the end, he let go and bent down to get into the car.
The assistant got into the driver's seat, started the car, and asked, "Mr. Lu, where are we going?"
"Whatever."
The assistant thought for a moment and suggested, "Golden Lounge?"
Lu Jinnian agreed with a grunt of agreement.
In the past four months, the Golden Resplendence had been renovated once. Compared to before, it looked even more magnificent.
In the private room, the assistant's drinks were quickly served. After the waiter left, she turned to look at Lu Jinnian, only to find him leaning against the sofa with a calm expression. She didn't know when he had lit a cigarette, but he was already halfway through it.
The assistant poured two glasses of wine, and pushed one of them in front of Lu Jinnian. "Mr. Lu, now that you're back, are you leaving?"
When Lu Jinnian heard the assistant's voice, he retracted his gaze from the ceiling. He straightened his body, picked up the glass, and downed it in one go. Then he nodded. "Yes."
