Chapter 267 - Open the Door for Boss Lu (2)Chapter 267 Open the Door for Boss Lu (2)
She opened the crimson wooden door, and found a figure she couldn’t be more familiar with outside—
Lu Boyan!
Her reaction was just what Lu Boyan expected. She first widened her eyes in surprise, dazed for seconds, and then dived into his arms to hug him tightly.
She was only wearing thin pajamas, so Lu Boyan wrapped herself into his arms with the coat. She looked up like a hamster, her smiling eyes shining brightly. “How come you’re here?”
Lu Boyan casually raised his brow. “Didn’t you say you missed me?”
A bright smile registered on Su Jianan’s face. She didn’t know if Captain Yan and others had heard the noise because they unanimously went out of their rooms. They let out some exaggerated exclamation and teased her with all the embarrassing words they could think of.
“Jianan, this is against the rules, you know. But I’ll approve this on behalf of Captain Yan since Mr. Lu came all the way for you!”
“Killing single dogs again. Jianan, you must feel so sweet, right?”
Su Jianan already blushed to the extreme, so she directly buried her face in Lu Boyan’s arms like an ostrich. “Come inside the room!”
While saying, she dragged Lu Boyan into the room and slammed close the door.
The moment Lu Boyan came in, he felt the temperature too low. He reached out to feel the heat by the heating fan and frowned. “Is this thing working?”
“... the entire heating in this hostel is just willful like that.”
Expectedly, Lu Boyan knitted his brows tighter. “So how will you sleep?”
“Didn’t you pack heating pads for me? I’ll use them.” Su Jianan smiled casually. “Even without them, I’ll be warm after sleeping for a while. I’m not that delicate.”
She was not delicate, while Lu Boyan felt sorry for her. “There are so many hotels. Why didn’t you live a hotel?”
“We usually stay in hostels on business trips. Even if I want to live in hotels, other colleagues might not want to. We’re a team, and I don’t want to be special...”
Lu Boyan stroked Su Jianan’s head. “Go pack your things.”
Su Jianan blinked. “What for?”
“To change a hostel for you.”
After that, Lu Boyan walked out.
Su Jianan packed her things in doubt, and soon Lu Boyan returned. He picked her suitcase and led her out of the room.
Captain Yan, Xiao Ying, and other members had actually been waiting outside.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFinally, Su Jianan knew what Lu Boyan was up to, and the “other hostel” he mentioned was actually a five-star hotel near the City G’s CBD. In any room of the hotel, they could see the bright lights by the river and the landmarks on the other bank.
Fetching the room card, Xiao Ying excitedly rushed to hug Su Jianan. “My first time in a five-star hotel! Tonight, you must ‘thank’ Boss Lu for us very sincerely!”
Captain Yan and others echoed Xiao Ying’s words, and Su Jianan felt so embarrassed that she almost wanted to slide into a crack on the floor. However, there was nothing like that on the hotel floor, so she could only pretend to miss the implication in their words. Also, she pretended not to know this was the hotel Lu Boyan and she stayed in last time they visited City G.
After more than half a year, everything had changed.
“Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, this is your room card.” The hotel manager sent the room card to Lu Boyan in person.
Moreover, it turned out to be the room they stayed in last time!
The heat in the suite was working properly, and Su Jianan finally stopped quivering. After unpacking her things, she found Lu Boyan taking off his clothes.
Everything he did had that fascinating charm, even the way he gently unbutton his shirt could make her swallow. After watching him do it for more than half a year, she still would occasionally find her heart racing.
Luo Xiaoxi once said that keeping the other’s heart racing was one of the ways to keep love fresh.
Now, she still adored Lu Boyan like she did when she was having that unrequited passion for Lu Boyan. Was she naive or was she keeping their love fresh?
Lu Boyan turned about, only to find Su Jianan staring at him thoughtfully. He walked to her. “Have you taken a shower?”
In the past, if he asked her that, that would mean...
Su Jianan quivered all over her body. “Yes, I have!”
Finishing her words, she readily jumped onto the bed as if Lu Boyan had been some disaster or monster.
Lu Boyan smiled and strolled into the bathroom.
Su Jianan flushed and slid between the sheets. She didn’t know if Lu Boyan had closed the door solid, because she could hear the water splattering on the bathroom floor.
She had been on her feet doing experiments for half of the day, sorting and writing reports more for several hours. Now, Su Jianan felt very tired actually. Thus, listening to the splattering water, she felt drowsy.
How long it had been, she didn’t know. She only felt that she was back in the familiar chest, breathing in the familiar scent. Immediately, it soothed her and made her relax.
“Hubby...” She was drifting out of consciousness and could only mumble by instinct.
Lu Boyan branded a kiss between her eyebrows. “Goodnight.”
Su Jianan immediately fell into the dark and sweet dreams and slept through the night.
...
It was on the next day.
Su Jianan just woke up, only to find Lu Boyan getting changed through her blurry vision. Thus, she scrambled up as well. “You’re going back to City A today?”
She knew that in the near future, Lu Boyan didn’t have any arrangements in City A. He probably appeared here yesterday just on a whim.
“I’ll go back after breakfast with you.” Lu Boyan brushed Su Jianan’s tangled hair, which was messy after a night’s sleep. “It’s still early. Go back to sleep.”
However, Su Jianan kicked away the sheet to wash. She didn’t want to sleep away the time she spent with Lu Boyan.
When they left the hotel, it was still early. Only chilling winds howled on the streets and few people were in sight.
It was very different between City G and City A. It was clearly in winter; however, except the temperate, everything here looked like it was in spring. The crowns of the trees were green, and the flowers were still blooming.
It made Su Jianan, who grew up in City A and was used to the bleak winter landscape, really surprised.
She circled her arms around Lu Boyan’s. “Where will we have breakfast?”
At that time, Lu Boyan’s phone rang. He showed the text he just received to Su Jianan. It was from Mu Sijue, and it said an address—address of the restaurant where they would have breakfast.
The taxi driver drove them to the destination. The restaurant was packed and most of the customers were elders enjoying their morning tea.
Mu Sijue sat in a half-open booth separated by a partition. Xu Youning was sitting beside him, yawning and looking drowsy.
Lu Boyan led Su Jianan to sit. Su Jianan pointed at Xu Youning and gave Mu Sijue a doubtful look.
“She’s always sleepy.”
Saying that, Mu Sijue knocked Xu Youning in the head with chopsticks.
“Hsss!” Xu Youning suddenly opened her eyes, looking fierce as if she could fight someone to death right now. However, when she met with Mu Sijue’s eyes, her aura immediately died down. “Boss.”
Mu Sijue motioned her to look to the other side of the table, and only then did she find Lu Boyan and Su Jianan had arrived. She greeted them with a smile and handed them the menu. “Their custard buns are really great!”
Su Jianan ordered custard buns and several other dishes, considering others’ taste. When they were waiting for the food, Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue talked about some business matters she couldn’t quite understand, so she scrolled the screen of the tablet they used to order food on the table for some gossip news with Xu Youning.
The restaurant served food fast. In no time, all the food was on the table. Lu Boyan naturally picked a soup dumpling, dipped in the red vinegar, and then put it into Su Jianan’s bowl.
This kind of interactions had been frequent in their daily lives because Su Jianan just smiled contentedly at Lu Boyan and then had her soup dumpling.
Xu Youning darted a look at the man beside her and shook her head. “Boss, I know why you can’t find a girlfriend!” She looked as if she had discovered a super big secret.
Unexpectedly, Mu Sijue didn’t get angry. Instead, he put on a curious face. “Please elaborate.”
“Your face is pretty good. But, other than a look, you don’t have anything else to attract a girl. You don’t even know how to be considerate, which is a boyfriend’s minimal quality. You don’t deserve a girlfriend indeed!” Xu Youning recklessly lashed out at Mu Sijue.
Mu Sijue sized up Xu Youning and burst into a snicker. That kind of contempt and scorn could almost make everyone choke.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXu Youning fought back. “What do you mean?”
“I only have a face, but you, you don’t even have a pretty face to flaunt.”
They could see that Xu Youning was mad, but she suppressed her anger after glancing at Lu Boyan and Su Jianan on the opposite side. She decided to put this on her revenge list.
After breakfast, on the way to send Lu Boyan to the airport, Su Jianan considered and said, “It didn’t feel right.”
“Mu Sijue and Xu Youning?”
“Yes!” Su Jianan nodded. “Youning didn’t fear him at all, and he treated Youning differently from other people too.”
“What are you trying to say?”
“I’m not sure.” Su Jianan cautiously said, “But if my guess is right, they’ll be evident in some time.”
It was just like them before. In daily lives, no matter how they tried to conceal their feelings or address the nature of their nominal marriage to others, people would surely notice the chemistry and atmosphere between them.
Love, was always mysterious for those who were trapped in it.
“We’ve arrived.” Lu Boyan suddenly said.
Su Jianan subconsciously looked out and found the car park in front of the police office. She sullenly looked at Lu Boyan. “Didn’t we agree to send you to the airport?”
“It’s enough for me to be late for work alone.” Lu Boyan got off and opened the car door for Su Jianan. “Get in the office.”
Su Jianan was kind of reluctant, but since she would soon return home, it would be maudlin to say anything more. Therefore, she directly waved at Lu Boyan. “I’ll come back once I finish here. Wait for me at home!”
Lu Boyan smiled and didn’t get back into the car until Su Jianan’s figure disappeared at the entrance of the police office. The car drove for a while and halted at a turn. Mu Sijue got in the car.
Mu Sijue automatically uttered before Lu Boyan reminded him. “Rest assured, I’ll have people protect her. At least now, I’m still in charge of City G.”
“Thank you.” Lu Boyan said.
Mu Sijue smiled. “It’s not every day that you can hear Lu Boyan say these two words. Just by that, I promise you Jianan will return to City A safe and sound. How’s the acquisition of Su Enterprise?”
“Almost done.”
Some of Su Enterprise’s business had a large market share in the business. Once Lu Boyan made the acquisition, Lu Enterprises’s empire would expand again.
By the time, even if Kang Ruicheng wanted to touch Lu Boyan, he must hesitate before he acted.
Mu Sijue slightly leaned back. “I still haven’t found out.” He meant the undercover agent Kang Ruicheng set in his group.
Lu Boyan considered for a moment. “Do you ever think that he might never have set up any men around you?”
“I do. But setting up an agent to destroy them in their home base and then looting and killing is Kang Ruicheng’s practice.” A hint of coldness flashed through Mu Sijue’s eyes. “So, he must have set up men around me.”
As for the agent, they had better hide deeper, otherwise...
Like a life-claiming Asura emerging from the darkest place, Mu Sijue emitted fatally menacing aura all over his body.
