An Chuxia can see from her face that she is completely exhausted . Behind her makeup, she is exquisite . She can capture the hearts of birds and beasts . An Chuxia blinks, and recognizes the beauty is Xiang Mankuai .
She looks at how beautifully Mankuai is dressed . She is wearing a red shirt, a black miniskirt and black stockings . The neckline to her shirt is half-open, and the second button is missing . An Chuxia realizes her hair is a mess .
“It’s Miss Chuxia . ” Mankuai’s fingers are painted red, making them more noticeable . An Chuxia knows Mankuai is deliberately attempting to bait her .
“How astute . ” An Chuxia smiles sweetly, hiding her anger and the sadness in her voice . She has always been able to mask her emotions .
Mankuai doesn’t seem to notice anything, smiling, despite being unpleasant . “Looking for Qilu?”
An Chuxia is rendered breathless when she hears Han Qilu’s name . It was hard to reign in her mood . She smiles, not answering her question . “When did you get back to China?”
“An hour ago . ” Her scent permeates the hallway . “He’s taking a shower . You can go in and wait for him . ”
Then, An Chuxia hears Mankuai walk away in her high heels . The large string of silver tassels swing .
“She turns out to be a friend of the president . ” The secretary turns to see Mankuai leave before smiling at her . “I’m sorry for being rude . Please come in . Do you need me to bring you a cup [of tea]?”
The secretary’s voice gets An Chuxia out of her fugue . She politely shakes her head . “Please don’t trouble yourself . ”
After saying those words, she stiffly walks in to the room . The president’s office is large and spacious . There is another door to an inner sanctum . There is a sign on the door that states: President’s Lounge .
Like a ghost, she sneaks to the door to the president’s lounge . She presses her ear to the door to listen . She hears the sound of water flowing . The insulation between the rooms is bad . She frowns as she leaves the meal she brought on his huge desk . She is a mess in her head, and she can’t help but sneer as she looks at the “lover’s lunch” .
She doesn’t know why she’s sneering . She turns to leave, but after taking three steps, her wrist is yanked forcefully . She is pulled into a familiar embrace .
His arms are still hot and wet .
“When did you arrive?” Han Qilu rests his chin on top of her head . His warm voice sounds comfortable .
An Chuxia frowns . She grits her teeth before pushing him away . “I just arrived . ”
Han Qilu sees the black and red lunchbox and lifts it . Then, he drops it . It’s a bit heavy, but when it hits the surface, it didn’t make much noise .
“Don’t misunderstand . Xiao Mingluo sent me with this thing, saying you’re starving to death, and I’m just kind enough to bring it . ” She pauses . He just smiles at her .
“Looks like my wife is jealous . ”
