Chapter 049: You won't be able to eat

Su Mianmian dragged her pillow downstairs.

Lu Xiangdong had actually let her sleep in the living room! Did he not know that there were mosquitoes in the living room?

She threw the pillow on the sofa. She huffed as she turned on the TV.

She wanted to watch a movie before sleeping, but a clap of thunder passed by the window, scaring her so much that she dropped the remote control. She walked to the window and closed the curtains.

She remembered that her pajamas were still sitting on the rooftop. She ran up to collect them.

The moment she opened the rooftop door, Su Mianmian felt a gust of cold wind blowing against her face, causing her to almost lose her footing. It took a lot of effort to find the drying pole in the dark, only to discover that the pajamas were missing! She tried her best to look around, but a bolt of lightning suddenly appeared, followed by a loud clap of thunder. It almost scared her out of her wits.

F*ck trying to find her pajamas; if she was going to be killed by the thunder, it wouldn't be worth it. After contemplating, she decided not to wear any pajamas.

While walking downstairs in the dark, she accidentally stepped on something and sprained her foot. Su Mianmian was both annoyed and regretful.

Lu Xiangdong sat at the dining table and ate his breakfast, holding a newspaper in his hand.

Su Mianmian came out of the kitchen bearing an odd expression. She always wore high heels, but today, for the first time, she wore a pair of flats. She was walking a little strange.

Lu Xiangdong's gaze shifted from the newspaper to her. Su Mianmian sat opposite him with a bowl of soup. She drank the soup expressionlessly and only whispered a few words from time to time. She had heavy dark circles under her eyes.

Captain Lu couldn't even look straight at her. He coughed lightly and lowered his head to continue eating his toast.

Su Mianmian glared at him. The food she ate was like chewing wax, it tasted terrible. More importantly, her foot was sprained. It was painful and swollen, and she couldn't wear high heels.

"It's very rude to stare at others while they eat."

She couldn't eat anymore, instead she bent down to rub her foot. It was really a double loss.

"Shameless. Despicable!" Su Mianmian took her socks off and placed her foot on the chair next to him. She wasn't going to eat, and so she wanted to make Captain Lu unable to eat, too. She thought with revenge in mind and admitted that she was a little angry.

Lu Xiangdong's lips twitched. This woman was really petty! He threw down his newspaper and walked around the dining table to stand in front of her. He looked down at her. "What happened to your feet?"

"They're crippled," she answered unhappily.

"Yes, they're badly crippled. I'm going to work." He held back his laughter as he walked past her. He picked up his bag on the sofa and left without looking back.

Su Mianmian was now really angry. Lu Xiangdong was inhumane and had no compassion. He wouldn't even console her when she was injured. Damn it!

She felt depressed now. So much so, that she decided to meet Qi Chuyan.

Qi Chuyan called her into the office. The moment the office door closed, she looked at Su Mianmian with a sinister gaze. Su Mianmian couldn't think of anything good to do, without the use of her toes.

"Vice President Qi, what's the matter?"

"Su Mianmian, you must leave the NEPC."

Su Mianmian was confused. She had worked so hard to enter the NEPC, why did she have to leave?
