Lu Zhaoyang and Xiang Jinxi went to get their agreement signed today. When that was over and they were on their way back in the car, she took the opportunity to discuss a series of proposals with him. She even asked to schedule another meeting to discuss the details with him next week.
Xiang Jinxi agreed reluctantly to the meeting.
Finally, they quieted down. Lu Zhaoyang took out her phone and made notes.
Suddenly, she heard Xiang Jinxi leaned closer to her and said, “You… are a capable assistant.”
She recalled Huo Yunting saying something like that too.
“It’s my job.”
When they reached their office, Lu Zhaoyang stepped out of the car and watched her boss left with car.
He’s even harder to manage than Huo Yunting!
Am I destined to terrible career choices?
No, my job is satisfying enough. It’s my bosses that are always giving me trouble.
When it was time to leave work. Lu Zhaoyang did not feel like going home at all. She still had something to finish up, so she took out her phone and messaged Huo Yunting.
“I’ll be home very late tonight. Don’t wait up.”
The message was simple — do not wait for her; mind his own business.
After that, she switched her phone off. She could never win him in an argument, so she might as well ignore him.
Hours passed. There was no one else in the office except for security.
Lu Zhaoyang ordered takeaway. She continued working while eating her dinner. Soon, it was midnight.
She stretched her neck tiredly. Surely Huo Yunting would not be at her place now, so late into the night.
When she reached her apartment, she noticed a slender figure standing outside building. He simply stood there with no apparent purpose.
She stopped walking and realized that he seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
Recently, she read a lot of news online about women being abducted. She shuddered at the thought and stared at his figure under the tree warily.
What to do…
Would she make it to the apartment in time if she ran?
Suddenly, the figure moved and gradually approached her!
She slowly took a few steps back and raised her arms to chest by way of defense.
The figure stopped in front of her and said with a calm voice, “Hello, Miss.”
“…”
Huh?
The lights were behind him, so she could not make out his face. However, his silhouette did look familiar.
“We met at the mall. I live on the fifth floor, right above you.”
“Ah!”
She remembered now. He wore a singlet and slippers in the mall, which were completely not suited for the current season.
“You should wear a few more layers in this weather, or people will think you’re weird. Erm, how can I… help you?”
“I left my keys at home and I haven’t paid for my dinner just now. Can you borrow me ten yuan? I will pay you back tomorrow.”
He squinted a bit as he could not make out her expression under his shadow.
“Sure.”
Ten yuan was easy enough.
She took out ten yuan from her wallet. “You don’t have to pay back.”
“I will…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Lu Zhaoyang walked past him and nearly ran to her apartment.
Was he really that intimidating?
… Weird?
The man looked down at his slippers and realized he felt uncomfortably cold. Perhaps he had stayed indoors too long to notice these things.
Lu Zhaoyang got home, took a bath, and went to bed.
The next morning, she had forgotten all about last night. When she opened the door to leave for work, she saw an unfamiliar looking man standing outside…
