"Mr. Lu, you should have your lunch on time..."
Assistant Song pushed the door open and saw Mr. Lu with a cold look in his eyes. Of course, there was also Ning Anmiao sitting on Mr. Lu's lap.
Assistant Song was stunned for a couple of seconds. His eyes quickly shifted downward. He quickly placed the lunch in his hand on the table without even raising his head. "Remember to have it on time. I'll take my leave first."
As he was leaving, there was an uncontrollable smile on his face. He couldn't help feeling happy for his boss.
It seemed that their remarriage was just around the corner!
After Assistant Song left, Ning Anmiao felt her face was about to burn!
She buried her face in Lu Yan's embrace, not wanting others to see her blushing face.
Her voice came out muffled from his chest. In her soft tone, there was also a harmless rebuke. "Didn't you say no one would dare to come in..."
"Well, I'll remind Assistant Song next time to be more careful when opening the door." Lu Yan smiled, looking quite pleased.
This shy and docile look of hers always worked on him.
Ning Anmiao's heart was still pounding. For some inexplicable reason, she felt like she was having an affair. "Forget it. I won't come to your office anymore in the future."
Just thinking about what had just happened made her tremble with fear.
If something like this happened a few more times, she would surely have a heart attack.
Lu Yan didn't argue with her anymore. He slightly lifted his chin. "Aren't you hungry? Let's have lunch."
Ning Anmiao got off his lap, tugged at the hem of her dress, and turned her head uneasily. "Actually, I've already eaten. I came here specifically to remind you."
"The lunch break is over. I'll go back to work first. Remember to have lunch!"
After saying that, Ning Anmiao rushed out of the office in a hurry, as if her butt was on fire.
Lu Yan smiled deeply and slightly pursed his lips, as if recalling the taste on his lips just now.
Apparently, she tasted even better.

When Ning Anmiao returned to her workstation with a blushing face, her colleagues were gradually coming back from lunch. No one noticed anything unusual about her.
"Miaomiao, I didn't see you in the cafeteria just now. Did you go for lunch?" a colleague asked casually.
Ning Anmiao waved her hand and replied politely, "I'm not hungry. I just had some snacks."
Since she came to Star River Capital, she hadn't encountered any difficult colleagues. Everyone was very harmonious and kind to her.
She really liked this kind of atmosphere.
Taking this topic as an opportunity, she chatted with her colleague for a while. The colleague was also very enthusiastic and gave her some fruits. Their relationship was quite harmonious.
When everyone started to focus on work, Ning Anmiao casually picked up her phone and habitually checked her messages.
She found that there was a missed call from her mother.
...
When it was time to get off work, Lu Yan walked out of his office. As usual, he glanced at Ning Anmiao's workstation and found it empty.
She wasn't there.
Lu Yan slightly narrowed his eyes, turned around and went back to his office. Just as he was about to call Ning Anmiao, she sent him a text message.
[My mom asked me to go back to Jiangcheng. I won't be going home tonight. I'll probably be back tomorrow morning. Go to bed early and remember to have dinner.]
Looking at this message, the worry in Lu Yan's heart gradually faded away. He stared at the words on the screen for a long time, and his brows also relaxed.
[Okay. Come back early tomorrow.]
He wasn't good at saying too many caring words, so he just sent this one message.
Seeing that she didn't reply for a long time, he thought she might be chatting with her parents, so he didn't think too much about it and put his phone aside.
Since Miaomiao wasn't around, he wasn't in a hurry to go home. Habitually, he worked overtime until evening.
It was very late when he finally left the company. Dragging his tired body, he drove home.
As soon as he got home, Lu Yan noticed that it was raining heavily outside.
Shanghai and Jiangcheng weren't far apart, and the weather difference wasn't big either. He estimated that it was also raining in Jiangcheng now.
Considering the inconvenience of the rainy weather, Lu Yan stood by the window, took out his phone and sent another message to Ning Anmiao.
[The road is slippery in the rain. You can come back later tomorrow. I'll give you a leave.]
Just like the previous message, she didn't reply to this one either. He didn't know if she had seen it.
She must have already gone to bed, Lu Yan thought.
He went into the bathroom. After taking a shower, as he was coming out while drying his hair, he heard someone opening the door.
His eyes turned cold. He quickly walked towards the door.
Standing at the door was Ning Anmiao, completely soaked by the heavy rain.
She was wet from head to toe. Her long hair hung in front of her body, dripping water. She looked extremely embarrassed and lost.
"Miaomiao?" Lu Yan was only stunned for two seconds. He quickly picked up a towel from the sofa and put it on her head.
The light in the room was very bright. It shone on Lu Yan's face, making his features look especially gentle. There was also concern in his eyes. "What's wrong? What happened?"
Ning Anmiao was shivering. The moment she saw Lu Yan, the tears in her eyes couldn't be held back anymore and rushed out crazily.
Although he didn't know what had happened, Lu Yan vaguely guessed that it should be related to the Ning family. He didn't ask immediately. Instead, he picked her up horizontally and carried her into the bathroom.
"Take a hot shower first. I'll bring your clothes in later."
Lu Yan looked very calm. He casually turned on the hot water for her. "Hurry up and change your clothes, or you'll catch a fever."
Ning Anmiao lowered her head. Seeing that Lu Yan was about to leave, she weakly grabbed the corner of his sleeve.
"Don't leave." Her voice was filled with sobs. She seemed to have suffered a great deal of grievance and was extremely helpless. She pinned all her hopes on him.
Lu Yan stopped in his tracks, turned around, bent down and gently pushed aside the wet hair in front of her face, revealing her red - rimmed eyes. In an instant, his heart ached.
This scene was very familiar.
He had seen it three years ago.
"Okay, I won't leave." His movements were gentle, and his voice gradually softened, filled with endless tenderness. "But you need to take a hot shower now, or you'll get sick."
Ning Anmiao stood there blankly. Her eyes were listless. She raised her hands and wrapped them around his neck. Her wet body pressed against his.
"Will you wash me, okay?"
In Ning Anmiao's actions, this was her most active act of showing love.
Lu Yan's pupils gradually became deep and fiery. He was a normal man. It was very difficult for him to resist the act of the woman he loved throwing herself into his arms on a rainy night.
He felt his voice becoming extremely hoarse, and his body gradually becoming hot. He closed his eyes, and his throat let out a very simple syllable.
"Okay."
...
This shower was extremely chaotic.
In the end, Ning Anmiao with a blushing face was wrapped in a bath towel by Lu Yan and carried out of the bathroom and placed on the bed in the bedroom.
After the passion, Lu Yan regained his calm. Looking at the little girl hiding under the covers, his tone was steady.
"What happened? Tell me."
