When Xia Qingwei saw this, she hurriedly urged her to go to bed. "Hurry up and tidy up. Go to bed. You must be tired from the day."
"Okay." Lu Man said goodnight to Xia Qingwei and quickly removed her makeup. After she was done tidying up, she hurried back to her room.
She lay in bed but didn't fall asleep immediately. She checked her phone and saw that she still hadn't received a message from Han Zhuoli.
After about twenty minutes, her phone rang.
Lu Man hurriedly picked it up and saw that it was a call from Han Zhuoli.
"You're home?" Lu Man asked in a low voice as she picked it up.
The lights were off in the bedroom and it was pitch-black. Only the moonlight from outside the window shone in.
Upon hearing Han Zhuoli's voice, Lu Man's entire body felt very warm.
She knew that she had truly fallen in love with him. Her every move was affected by Han Zhuoli. Even her heart was being led by him.
"Yeah. I called you as soon as I got home. You haven't slept yet?" Han Zhuoli's low and mellow voice traveled through the phone. It sounded especially warm in the dark night.
Lu Man didn't even feel that it was dark. It was as if her surroundings were suffused with a warm and soft glow because of Han Zhuoli.
"Yeah, I was waiting for your call." Lu Man pulled the blanket up a little, and it just happened to cover her chin. Her whole body was wrapped up in a warm blanket, and it was especially comfortable.
Han Zhuoli's low chuckle came from the phone. In this quiet night, his chuckle clearly entered her ears, as if it carried an electric current that flowed into her heart, causing her heart to feel a burst of numbness.
"Then you can relax now. I'm home safely." Han Zhuoli smiled and said, "You should go to bed early."
"Okay, then … goodnight," Lu Man said softly. Suddenly, she didn't want to end the call so soon.
When she was on the phone with Han Zhuoli, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled into a smile. Even she didn't notice it.
If anyone could see her now, they would definitely see the happiness that came from the bottom of her heart.
"That's it?" Han Zhuoli raised his eyebrows and asked.
Lu Man was puzzled. Han Zhuoli said, "Aren't you going to give me a goodnight kiss?"
Lu Man thought to himself, How can I give it to him through the phone?
After thinking for a while, he smacked his lips against his phone, feeling silly.
The sound of kissing came through the phone, and Han Zhuoli heard it clearly.
"Good night." Lu Man still felt that this was too shameful and quickly hung up.
Han Zhuoli couldn't help but laugh at the phone. "Little girl, why did you hang up before I even gave you a goodnight kiss?"

On Monday, Lu Man entered the office. When Sister Li and the others saw Lu Man, they were curious about what was going on between Lu Man and the CEO.
It was just that Brother Zhang and Sister Li were both seniors. Even if they were curious, they were too embarrassed to ask.
Chen Shimian was even more careless. He had his suspicions at the gala, but he had forgotten about it the moment he turned around.
Thus, although everyone's gaze was complicated, no one really asked Lu Man anything.
Lu Man knew what they were thinking, but she didn't say anything.
Their not asking was actually exactly what she wanted.
"Lu Man, I have to congratulate you again. It was too chaotic at the gala, so I didn't get a chance to congratulate you properly," Brother Zhang said with a laugh.
"Thank you." Lu Man smiled.
"That's right, Lu Man. Congratulations, this award of yours is too valuable," Sister Li also said.
