The moment Ning Anmiao closed the door, she clearly heard the woman in the room let out a heart - rending scream.
Presumably Jiang Qiwei was severely hit at this moment and had begun to doubt her charm as a woman.
Thinking of her collapsed state, Ning Anmiao couldn't help but snicker.
It was the first time she had played such a malicious prank on someone. While feeling a bit panicked inside, she also felt more relieved.
Let her keep flirting with Lu Yan casually!
At this time, she suddenly remembered that she had promised Lu Yan today that she would go back earlier to take care of him.
After all, he was on his period and needed to be coaxed.
She strolled slowly to the hotel entrance. As she waved to hail a taxi, she lowered her head to check her phone.
It was eleven o'clock.
Ning Anmiao's heart skipped a beat. She instinctively clicked on the missed calls, and sure enough, there were several, all from Lu Yan.
A tinge of guilt welled up in her heart.
This feeling was just like what a man who had done something wrong outside would feel.
She had to go home quickly.
—
"Sir, could you please drive a bit faster?"
After getting in the car, she immediately instructed the driver. The phone in her hand was still on the missed - call page, and she didn't know whether she should call back.
The driver was an older man. He had just seen "Lu Yan" come out of the hotel. With his rich life experience, he immediately guessed something and his eyes were twinkling.
"Kid, did you go out to have an affair?"
...What the hell affair.
Ning Anmiao couldn't help but be speechless, but she still replied, "Sir, you're overthinking. I came here to meet a friend."
This statement made it even more thought - provoking.
The driver glanced at the rear - view mirror meaningfully and said in a profound tone, "Kid, you're handsome. It's normal to have a lot of love affairs outside."
"We're all men. I understand."
Seeing that she couldn't explain it clearly, Ning Anmiao stopped trying. After all, there was no need to prove her innocence to a stranger.
She chose to remain silent.
Unexpectedly, the driver thought she had admitted his words and started to chatter again, "Big brother doesn't mean to blame you. But since you're married, you should settle down."
"It's this late. Your wife should be calling to urge you, right?"
The driver looked as if he knew everything, "Go back early and coax her. Women can be easily coaxed with a few sweet words. It's easy for you handsome guys."
"Kid, you should be more careful in the future. It's best not to associate with other women outside. It's not easy for your wife at home. Do you understand?"
Ning Anmiao couldn't help but laugh.
"Thank you. I will."
The driver was very kind - hearted and drove the car directly to the door of the mansion.
Looking at the magnificent carved gate, the driver couldn't help but sigh a few times and took a few more glances at "Lu Yan".
"Rich and good - looking. No wonder he's so promiscuous..."
The driver clicked his tongue repeatedly. After dropping off "Lu Yan", he started the engine and drove away.
Standing in front of the house, Ning Anmiao actually felt a bit guilty.
It was half past eleven.
She tiptoed towards the door, praying in her heart that Lu Yan had already fallen asleep.
Although this possibility was extremely slim.
But the moment she opened the door, Lu Yan, as expected, didn't let her down.
"What time is it?"
He was standing at the door, his voice calm, "Is this what you meant by coming back earlier?"
His posture and tone were no different from a wife checking on her husband.
Ning Anmiao scratched her head awkwardly and tried hard to come up with an excuse, "The boss tonight was very enthusiastic, and we just got carried away chatting."
Hearing this, Lu Yan looked at her. His gaze was calm, but Ning Anmiao just felt that his eyes were sharp, as if he could see through her.
"What's wrong?" Ning Anmiao tried to appear calm and composed, "Do you think I would have an affair outside?"
She had learned the word "affair" from the driver just now, and now she was putting it into use.
Lu Yan's gaze swept over her whole body, as if hiding endless meaning and also as if checking something.
He was silent for a few seconds, then let out a soft scoff, "You?"
Just these two words carried a mocking tone, "I bet you can't even get aroused."
Ning Anmiao: ...
Coincidentally, you've guessed right.
Ning Anmiao pursed her lips and didn't want to continue this topic. She stepped into the room and went to the kitchen to pour two glasses of hot water.
One was for herself and the other was for Lu Yan.
"I'm going to take a shower first. Remember to drink the hot water." Before entering the bathroom, Ning Anmiao reminded him.
Looking at the glass of hot water on the table, Lu Yan's eyes gradually softened.
Her tenderness and concern made Lu Yan couldn't help but be greedy for it.
...
When she came out of the bathroom, the living room was empty.
Thinking that Lu Yan should have gone back to his room to rest, Ning Anmiao heaved a sigh of relief, and the tense nerves just now relaxed.
Fortunately, she didn't show any flaws.
If Lu Yan knew that she had used his body to fool around and even got into the same bed with Jiang Qiwei, she didn't know what his reaction would be.
Even though nothing had actually happened.
Now her hair was short, which was much easier to manage than the long hair before. Ning Anmiao quickly dried her hair and entered the bedroom refreshed.
In the bedroom, a small bedside lamp was on.
Lu Yan in the bed hadn't fallen asleep. When he saw her come in, he opened his eyes and stared at her.
"Not asleep yet?"
Ning Anmiao asked casually. As a result, the other person looked at her and answered seriously and solemnly, "I can't fall asleep."
"Why can't you fall asleep?" Ning Anmiao continued along his words.
Lu Yan paused for a moment, raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "I have menstrual cramps."
Ning Anmiao: "..."
His tone was so serious that Ning Anmiao, who originally wanted to laugh because of his words, forced the laughter back.
A grown man openly saying that he had menstrual cramps.
If it weren't for her strong emotional control, Ning Anmiao would have been laughing so hard that she would be pounding the wall by now.
"Online it says that during menstruation, a woman's emotions will fluctuate, and she is more likely to be sad."
Lu Yan's eyes were deep, "Miaomiao, I'm very sad."
After saying that, he even sighed nonchalantly, full of endless grievances.
Ning Anmiao could hardly hold back her laughter. She bit her tongue hard to prevent herself from actually laughing out loud, "So what do you want me to do?"
There was tolerance in her tone. She wanted to see what tricks Lu Yan was up to.
"If you coax me, I won't hurt anymore, and I won't be sad either."
Lu Yan still remembered the way Ning Anmiao gently stroked his head and comforted him softly.
He liked it very much.
Lu Yan's voice was steady and gentle. His serious look made it hard to believe that he was joking.
Ning Anmiao blinked her eyes and looked at Lu Yan levelly.
"Mr. Lu, don't forget that you're a man. Read less stuff online. Don't be so delicate like a woman. Turn off the light and go to sleep quickly."
