"… I'll talk to you later." He hung up and walked over. "What happened? You spilled the milk. Did you burn your hand? "
She didn't burn her hand, but she did spill a lot of milk. The milky white liquid quickly seeped into the thick carpet and disappeared. Bai Lu shook her head. "I didn't burn my hand. The milk is for you. Are you busy?"
Liang Feifan's sharp black eyes scanned her face. He guessed that she had only heard the last sentence, so he smiled and said, "You know I don't have the habit of drinking milk at night."
Bai Lu retracted her hand a little sheepishly. "Oh."
"Are you unhappy?"
She couldn't hide her thoughts, nor could she hide anything. She raised her head, and her clear eyes were aggressive. "… Feifan, are you really not lying to me? Is there really nothing wrong with the Liang Clan? "
"What did you hear?" Liang Feifan reached out and took the milk from her hand. He put it on the desk beside him and looked at her calmly.
He looked so calm and collected, as if … nothing had happened.
But she clearly heard something just now …
Bai Lu thought for a moment, then she asked the most important question. "… Feifan, although I've never worked at the Liang Clan's headquarters, I've been an employee of EC for many years. I know that the Liang Clan and the Ye Clan have always had business dealings. Now that they've broken off, tell me honestly, is there really nothing at all?"
"Of course there's a connection."
Liang Feifan's deep eyes flashed slightly. The light from the incandescent lamp shone on his handsome face, making his facial features appear more three-dimensional. His voice was deep, unlike during the day when he refused to reveal a single word. However, he still chose to avoid the important points and dwell on the trivial. "The Liang Clan will indeed have an impact, but it won't be as serious as Chu Weiye said."
"Honey, don't you trust your husband that much?"
In the silent space, only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard. His deep voice gradually dispelled the uneasiness in Bai Lu's heart.
Yes, why didn't she trust him?
He was Liang Feifan!
In her heart, even if he wasn't omnipotent, he definitely wouldn't be defeated so easily.
There was nothing in this world that he couldn't solve. Her husband was Liang Feifan. Why should she worry unnecessarily?
Bai Lu pursed her lips and leaned her forehead against his. Feeling his hot breath on her body, she was truly relieved. "I believe you. I'll believe you no matter what you say."
Liang Feifan didn't say anything else. He just leaned forward slightly and kissed her lips.
Liang Feifan was about to kiss her lips when the phone beside him suddenly rang. The ambiguous atmosphere was disrupted by the phone's ringtone. Bai Lu was already a little resistant. Now that the phone suddenly rang, it was like a savior had fallen from the sky. Her remaining lust was dispelled by the ringtone. She reached out and pushed Liang Feifan. "… A call, a call …"
Liang Feifan's face darkened. Who was interrupting him at this time?
He hugged Bai Lu and refused to let go. "I don't care, honey …"
The phone rang once, but no one answered. Less than two seconds later, it rang again. This time, Bai Lu was completely awake. She reached out and grabbed her unbuttoned pajamas. She hurriedly put them on and jumped off the desk. "… You, you answer the call first. It might be something important. I'm very tired … I'm going to rest."
She grabbed her pants and didn't know whether to put them on or not. She was afraid that Liang Feifan would pounce on her again, so she ran to the door of the study and put on her pants with a red face. Then she opened the door and fled.
Liang Feifan watched as the figure quickly disappeared through the door. He then lowered his head to look at the bulge below his lower abdomen. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows helplessly.
He picked up the milk on the side. It was already a little cold. For the first time, he tilted his head back and drank it all. Only then did he grab the phone that was still ringing. He glanced at the phone number on the screen, and his face turned even darker.
"You'd better give me a reasonable reason why you have the perseverance to call me so late at night."
Buck heard the man's gloomy tone over the phone, but he laughed lightly. "Hey, Mr. Liang, are you … dissatisfied?"
Liang Feifan only felt that there was still a fire in his lower abdomen. Right now, he was really — — unsatisfied!
"Buck, what's the matter?" Of course, he knew that Buck was not a bored person. He would not call him for no reason. It must be something important.
"Of course there's good news." Buck's tone was full of schadenfreude. "I'm giving you a piece of good news to make up for your dissatisfaction. You have to remember that you owe me one."
Liang Feifan reached out to light a cigarette from the cigarette box on the table. He narrowed his eyes and took a puff. Only then did he feel the desire in his body dissipate with the smell of nicotine. "That depends on whether your news is worth it to make me feel like I owe you one."
"I believe that Bai Lu's news is worth a lot to Liang Feifan, right?"
Liang Feifan chuckled. It was rare that he did not refute his good friend's teasing. He reached out and flicked the cigarette between his fingers. "You know that I don't like to keep people in suspense. If you have something to say, just say it."
"In that case, Mr. Liang, let's make a choice. Do you want to hear the good news first or the bad news first?" Buck's annoying laughter came from the other end of the phone.
Liang Feifan frowned. "What is it? It's not your style to dilly-dally. "
"But just looking at the expression on your face right now makes me very happy." Buck also knew what kind of person Liang Feifan was, so naturally, he would not make such a childish choice. He might as well generously choose for him. "How about this? Listen to the good news first to calm yourself down."
"Okay. The results of the design competition are out. Among the 3,000 candidates, your woman stood out."
Liang Feifan's thin lips curved upwards. He raised his hand and took another puff of his cigarette. His tone was very arrogant. "Since she said that she's my woman, she naturally won't lose to those people. Even if you didn't tell me this news, I would have known."
"We have 11 judges. Bai Lu's design is 5vs5, and I was the last vote to support her. Tell me, don't you owe me one? "
"Buck, don't pretend to be a good guy. I know you. If you didn't like Bai Lu's design, you would never have voted for her."
"Hey, hey, hey. You're wrong. No matter what, I was the one who voted for her …"
