Chapter 116: The earlier you leave, the better

Su Mianmian felt really bored, every day seemed the same. After work, she was the only one at home and didn't even have anyone to talk to.

She was planning to go out to watch a movie after work, when Lu Xiangdong sent her a text asking her to send him a document.

When she received this text, she was stunned. Shouldn't the task of sending a document be the assistant's job? She shouldn't have to do this.

'I have work tomorrow. Have your men send it over,' she replied.

Lu Xiangdong picked up his phone, glanced at it, and responded.

'My assistant is with me now. This document is very urgent. If you can, come over.'

She didn't have any reason to refuse. She wondered what kind of document could be so urgent. According to his instructions, she went to the company to get the document, and then flew to Hong Kong.

Lu Xiangdong had already informed Li Mingzhe of the plan. Once Su Mianmian arrived at the company, she looked for Li Mingzhe.

When Su Mianmian saw Li Mingzhe, she felt as though she was a lifetime away. In the past, Li Mingzhe had given her the impression that he was a monster, but now, Li Mingzhe was dressed like a gentleman. He made an inviting gesture towards her "Stewardess Su, do you mind waiting for me to find out where to put the documents?"

She was not in a hurry. She nodded at him and walked into the office.

When he was looking for the documents, Su Mianmian tried to talk to him. "Li Mingzhe, you're so different now. It seems like you've changed a lot."

Li Mingzhe held the document she needed. When he handed it to her, he spread his hands. "All of this is thanks to CEO Lu. He's a good person. If he hadn't given me this opportunity, I wouldn't be in my current position. It's all thanks to him."

Su Mianmian would have never expected Lu Xiangdong to forget about the past and let him work under him. She couldn't help but admire Lu Xiangdong's intelligence.

"Okay, I'll be leaving now. You go ahead." Su Mianmian said goodbye to him, pulled open the office door, and walked out.

The flight was at seven o'clock in the evening. When she arrived, it was already late at night. However, Lu Xiangdong had personally driven a car to pick her up.

The moment she got off the plane, she saw his Land Rover parked at the entrance of the airport. She looked at the license plate and confirmed that it was Lu Xiangdong's car. She walked towards the front of the car. Lu Xiangdong lowered the car window and opened the front passenger seat for her. She opened the car door and sat inside.

"The documents you wanted."

He reached out to take them and casually threw them under the car.

Su Mianmian looked at him curiously. "Aren't they very important documents? Why are you randomly throwing them?"

He couldn't talk to her, he was focussing on driving.

"I'll take my time to look at them when we get back. You've been on a plane for a few hours, you must be very tired. I'll send you back to the hotel to rest. If you want to eat something for supper, I'll get my assistant to buy it for you."

She was really hungry. The food on the plane had been so expensive and she could not to buy it.

"Just do whatever you want. It's already so late. I guess many shops are closed."

He nodded and dialed his assistant's number, asking him to go out and buy some supper.

After hanging up the phone, they arrived at the hotel.

After parking, the two of them got out the car.

They the elevator one after the other.

They swiped the room key card and entered.

Lu Xiangdong took off his coat, and Su Mianmian sat on the sofa, exhausted.

The assistant stood outside and knocked on the door. "CEO Lu, the supper you wanted has arrived."

Lu Xiangdong waved his hand and let him bring it in.

The assistant was stunned to see that Su Mianmian was also present. He put her things away sensibly, waved at Su Mianmian, and left.

Su Mianmian looked at the supper, which was still steaming hot.

Before Lu Xiangdong entered the bathroom, he turned to her and said, "Eat it while it's hot. Eat it before you take a shower."

She nodded and eagerly took out a pair of chopsticks.

After being so hungry for the last few hours, she felt very satisfied to be able to eat such delicious noodles.

The bathroom door suddenly opened. Lu Xiangdong only had a towel around his waist as he slowly walked over to her.

She took a casual glance and suddenly felt her face go hot. Did he have to look so good? He walked up to her while she was eating her noodles.

Lu Xiangdong felt her gaze on him. He turned to look at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Su Mianmian shook her head and quickly averted her gaze. She lowered her head and drank her soup. She couldn't say that she had blushed so hard just by looking at him.

"I'll go look at the information. Call me if there's anything." He picked up the documents she had brought over and went to the bedroom. Su Mianmian held her face and sighed.

After filling up the bathtub with water, Su Mianmian took off her clothes and stepped in.

She was already submerged in the bath when she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to bring in her panties. It was definitely not convenient for her to go out and take them now. Should she get him to bring them in? She thought it was better not to disturb him while he was working. She was going to wear a nightgown later, so it didn't matter if she wasn't wearing underwear.

Lu Xiangdong rubbed his temples. She had been bathing for almost an hour. Was she going to be done soon? He had almost finished reading the documents.

Su Mianmian had already washed, but because she wasn't wearing her underwear, she felt too embarrassed to go out. Her nightgown was too transparent. When she lowered her head, she could see a faint darkness.

He put down his documents, went to the bathroom, and knocked on the door.

"Su Mianmian, are you almost done yet? I want to use the bathroom."

Su Mianmian was embarrassed. "Oh, okay, I'll be right there."

She slowly walked to the bathroom door and said uncomfortably, "Can you bring me a pair of underwear?"

He frowned and looked at her. "It's almost time to sleep. Don't worry about that. Come out."

Su Mianmian was sweating. Even if it was time to sleep she still needed her underwear.

Seeing that she was not going to come out of the bathroom, he stood in front of the door and pulled her out.

Su Mianmian let out a cry of surprise. She leaned back against his chest, and he held onto her waist.

The corner of his mouth curled up in amusement. His gaze followed her panicked face all the way down her body. He smiled brightly.

"This nightgown looks pretty good," he said as he leaned her against the wall. When she lowered her head, she saw that a certain part of his body had changed.

She cursed in her heart and pushed him away.

"Lu Xiangdong, aren't you going to the toilet? Why aren't you going?"

He didn't really want to go to the toilet right now, he wanted something else. He pinched her chin and held the back of her head. He kissed her passionately and pressed his body against hers. Su Mianmian's mind went blank. She saw his distinct facial features in front of her and she couldn't resist. She could only accept his fierce demands.

Lu Xiangdong was only wearing a towel. As the two of them pressed against one another, his towel fell to the ground.

Su Mianmian was so shocked that she almost screamed. However, he covered her mouth with his. He kissed her ear and asked, "Can I?"

She felt that his body was on the verge of collapse when he said this. He held her waist harder. It was obvious that he was enduring a lot. Su Mianmian felt the same, but, even though she really wanted it, she had to think about the child. The moment her rationality overcame her passion, she pushed him away. "I'm sorry. I'm very tired today. Let me go."

Lu Xiangdong nodded, indicating that he was willing to respect her. He bent down to pick up his towel and wrapped it around his body. He slammed the door after he entered the bathroom.

Su Mianmian knew that he was angry with her, angry that she did not cooperate with him, but she had not wanted this.

Lu Xiangdong had a cold shower to try and cool the heat in his body.

Su Mianmian heard the sound of water splashing. She bit her lip and forced herself not to think about him and to sleep.

Su Mianmian slept very soundly. She did not know when he had got into bed.

When she woke up, the sky was already bright, and he was not in bed.

She opened the bedroom door and found a man sitting on the living room sofa. She thought it was Lu Xiangdong, but when the man turned his head, she realized it was his assistant.

The assistant got up and walked towards her. He smiled and said, "Stewardess Su, President Lu asked me to prepare breakfast for you. Please eat it while it's hot."

Su Mianmian nodded and asked curiously, "Where did he go?"

"CEO Lu went to the construction site. He went there at six."

So early! She nodded.

When she was having breakfast, the assistant stood there without any intention of leaving. She looked up at the assistant and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"CEO Lu said that after you finish your breakfast we should go for a walk. Is there any place you want to go?" The assistant spoke in a business-like tone. This made her feel a little uncomfortable.

She put down her food. "There's no need to go through so much trouble. Help me book a plane ticket. I'll go back today."

The assistant looked a little troubled. "I have to ask CEO Lu about this first."

"Then call him and ask him." After what happened last night, he probably wanted her to leave as soon as possible. She also felt that it was better to leave as soon as possible so that they wouldn't have to deal with the same situation tonight.

The assistant went outside to call Lu Xiangdong.
