Chapter 86 Jianan, You Have Grown Up!
There was only one wall lamp that was on in the huge room, and Su Jianan rolled on the bed, wrapped in a quilt.
Calling Lu Boyan as Teacher Lu was fine, but how dare she kiss him.
Was there any student as evil as her?
And when the kiss was over... was it necessary for her to roll on the bed out of excitement?
Although it was one o’clock in the morning, Su Jianan was still awake.
Her body seemed to be activated by the just Waltz, and she kept having a subtle feeling, which seemed to flow into each of her cells. Now, she was in extreme excitement.
She knew that this strange feeling was brought by Lu Boyan.
It was not until two o’clock in the morning that Su Jianan fell asleep in a daze, and she did not forget her promise to make breakfast for Lu Boyan, thus, she set an alarm clock at 6:30 a.m. Her total sleeping time was less than five hours.
Therefore, the next morning, when Su Jianan was woken up by the alarm clock, she almost subconsciously pulled the quilt over her head, trying to block the alarming sound and continue to sleep.
However, she could not help but think of Lu Boyan’s face.
After three seconds, she kicked the quilt away at one filling and got up unwillingly with her messy hair.
In the kitchen.
Uncle Xu saw that Su Jianan was half-awake and felt that she was sleepwalking and might hit the cupboard at any time. He suggested, “Young Madam, you can make breakfast for Young Master tomorrow. Go back to your room and sleep longer. Today, you’ll have to go to the company to help the Young Master.”
“No.” Su Jianan gathered a handful of cold water to excite herself. “I have promised him to make breakfast for him.”
As she said that, she had taken a few eggs out of the refrigerator and put them in the egg steamer, rubbing her fist while considering what she should make for breakfast.
She finally cooked a sandwich with avocado and tuna fish and soft-boiled eggs which had been steamed for four minutes. Pulling apart the shells of the eggs and cutting them apart, she saw the golden yellow semisolid egg yolks surrounded by the snow-white albumens. After roasting some asparagus and preparing some fruits, she put them in two white plates on the table. The colorful and exquisite foods whetted her appetite.
Lu Boyan was used to drinking coffee or milk in the morning, so, Su Jianan prepared a cup of hot milk for him and made a cup of milkshake with nuts on it for herself.
Su Jianan finished cooking the breakfast for them in less than one hour, and she became completely awake during the busyness.
Although their cooks would take dishes presentation into consideration, they gave priority to the nutrition of the foods and Lu Boyan’s taste. Therefore, at first glance of the colorful breakfast, Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows. “Have you ever learned how to make a dishes presentation?”
“I have no time to learn that.” Su Jianan looked at him seriously, leaning her hands on the desk. “Mr. Lu, what you will eat is not only my achievement in this morning but also my experience of dishes presentation of the past years.”
Lu Boyan took a bite of the sandwich and praised. “It’s delicious.”
Su Jianan smiled expectantly. “Can I get a reward?”
Lu Boyan handed her a piece of paper money of one hundred yuan. Su Jianan was dissatisfied with it after scrutinizing the money. She curled her lip and said, “You’re so stingy.”
“It’s possible for you to get more rewards,” Lu Boyan said, “I will pay you the same price if you also cook the dinner for me.”
Although the temptation of the money was strong, Su Jianan shook her head after thinking it over. ” I will be busy when I am on duty, and I would rather die than go to sleep late and get up early.”
“Or you can resign?” Lu Boyan attracted her in the same way. “If you resign from your office and stay at home, I will give you a tenfold salary compared with what you get from the police office.”
In this way, she would not have to stay with Jiang Shaokai all time, and he could see her as soon as he returned home.
However, Su Jianan refused without consideration. ” I have been studying for six years, and it is a hard-won opportunity for me to be a medical examiner in Municipal Bureau. If I resign now, my study of the past six years would be wasted. What’s more, I will not be a housewife in our marriage. As for cooking, I am an amateur, and the cooks in our home are professional, so, your advice is useless even if you give me a hundred times more salary.”
Her answer was in Lu Boyan’s expectation, and he would suspect that he did not know her at all if she consented.
He ended the conversation and urged Su Jianan to eat more quickly because he had to go to the company early that day.
Su Jianan observed his smile for a few moments and glowered at him. “Are you kidding me?”
Lu Boyan answered her leisurely,” If you take it seriously, I will inform your chief at once that you quit your job.”
“How dare you!” Su Jianan suddenly realized that Lu Boyan made fun of her. She bit the sandwich hard. “You’re boring. Do not talk to me before getting out.”
And then, the breakfast was going on in silence, but they both felt comfortable and natural.
In the past, after breakfast, Su Jianan would drive her car to the police office while Lu Boyan drove his car to his company. Thus, going to the company with Lu Boyan was a new experience for Su Jianan.
Lu Boyan turned on his iPad to deliver mails as soon as he got on the car, and at the same time, Su Jianan slept in the corner alone in order not to disturb him.
When Lu Boyan paid attention to her, she was asleep, embracing a tiny cushion and with her long eyelashes hanging down, looking like a sleepy animal.
A slight sigh escaped Lu Boyan’s lips. He took away the cushion in her arms carefully, put it under her neck, wrapped her with the coat he took off, and ordered Uncle Qian to drive slower.
It was the morning rush hour, and there was a traffic jam on their way. Therefore, Uncle Qian could not drive fast at all. They had to brake and start the car from time to time, and the long road was filled with cars. Lu Boyan would become impatient in the past when facing this, but that day, he hoped that this condition could be longer.
An hour later, the car stopped in front of the entrance of the Lu Enterprises. Lu Boyan waked Su Jianan up, who just had a shallow sleep and soon opened her eyes and looked at him with sleepy eyes.
“We arrived,” Lu Boyan said.
Su Jianan then reacted and found that she was wrapped in Lu Boyan’s coat. She had a subtle ecstasy in her heart and returned the jacket to him. “Thank you.”
Getting off the car, they entered the company together.
At this time, many staff went in and out from the company’s front door. Su Jianan hid behind Lu Boyan’s body to avoid others’ sight, but, to her surprise, Lu Boyan suddenly reached out his arm and grabbed her waist.
The “intimacy” between them was exposed to the public.
Su Jianan breathed hard and struggled without being noticed. “Lu Boyan, let me go!”
Lu Boyan tightened his arm, his lips slightly tilted upward. ” I told you yesterday that you should be accustomed to it as soon as possible.”
Su Jianan had no choice but to quicken her steps. After entering the elevator, she broke off his arms swiftly, and Lu Boyan did not stop her.
When the elevator reached the floor of the Planning department, the door opened. Lu Boyan pressed a button to keep the door open for Su Jianan and said, “I will pick you up at noon.”
Su Jianan answered him, got out of the elevator, and walked straight to Manager Cai’s office.
Manager Cai had started working for a long while, and when seeing her, she smiled and said, “Madam, did Boss Lu pick you up at your hotel yesterday?”
Su Jianan made a sound of surprise and asked, “How do you get to know that?”
“When I returned to the company yesterday, I found that you were not well, so I called in Boss Lu’s office and told him your condition. Later, I heard that Boss Lu came off work ahead of time.” Manager Cai blinked and continued, “So, I guessed that he went to pick you up. It was the first time that he had got off work so early during the last ten years.”
Although Su Jianan was in a daze yesterday and did not realize the arrival of Lu Boyan, she still felt indescribably happy when hearing that. She puckered in a smile and began to deal with other affairs.
Su Jianan could have finished all her work in the morning as she did not have too many things to do, but Lu Boyan came early to her at noon, so, she had to leave the things to afternoon and went out with Lu Boyan.
The restaurant Lu Boyan chose yesterday was suitable for Su Jianan, and she did not think that Lu Boyan would take her to a western restaurant today.
Sure enough, after crossing several intersections, they finally arrived at an old lane in the city.
The ancient lane was very long, and there was an old building which looked like an arcade at its end. After taking a careful look at it, Su Jianan found that it was a Cantonese restaurant.
Compared with the well-known French restaurant yesterday, this Cantonese restaurant was only known by a few people.
However, the dishes there were authentic. While drinking a bowl of beef ball soup, Su Jianan asked Lu Boyan curiously, “How do you know this restaurant?”
Lu Boyan answered, “One of my old friends run it.”
When Su Jianan was curious about this old friend, a familiar figure appeared at the door of the restaurant, and Su Jianan was astonished.
Su Yicheng noticed Su Jianan and Lu Boyan at once. He went over to them and said with a smile, “What a coincidence.”
Lu Boyan gestured the waiter to fetch them another tableware. “Let’s have lunch together?”
Without hesitation, Su Yicheng withdrew a chair gently for his companion, Zhang Mei, who thanked him in low voice before turning her gaze to Lu Boyan and Su Jianan while nodding with a smile. “Boss Lu, Miss Su.”
Su Jianan returned a polite smile, passing the menu near her to Zhang Mei. Su Jianan was about to order some dishes for Su Yicheng as she knew his taste very well when Zhang Mei spoke out some dishes Su Yicheng loved.
It seemed that Luo Xiaoxi was right. Su Yicheng and Zhang Mei were keeping an ambiguous relationship.
Su Yicheng poured a cup of tea for himself and asked Su Jianan, “Jianan, are you still on vacation?”
“Yes.” Su Jianan replied, “I will go back to work after the company’s anniversary celebration.”
Su Yicheng was surprised for a while before looking at Lu Boyan with a smile. “You are so partial. I invited you to be my chaperon for one night on Cheng An’s anniversary celebration, but you rejected me.”
Su Jianan answered indifferently, “you have enough chaperons, I believe.”
After some reflection, Su Yicheng turned to Lu Boyan, “Boyan, according to my sister’s word, you still have no one chaperon, right?”
Lu Boyan hung up his lips. “The meaning I grasp is different from what you understand.”
Su Yicheng looked interested and asked, “What you get from the words?”
“You are so charming that each girl wants to pursue you.” Su Jianan teased her brother directly, “You’ll attend the anniversary celebration of Lu Enterprises, right? Have you chosen any chaperon?”
Su Yicheng sighed, “People always say that girls are outgoing, but you are too outgoing. And you have said that I am not short of chaperons, so please do not worry about it.”
Not sounding out Su Yicheng’s words, Su Jianan took a bite of beef unwillingly. Right then, Lu Boyan suddenly said, “Do you need to choose? The girl sitting beside you is a good choice, isn’t it?”
Su Yicheng smiled and changed the topic rapidly, “The focus of the tenth-anniversary celebration of Lu Enterprises should not be my companion. How is the anniversary celebration prepared?”
Su Jianan answered, “The preparation work is almost done.”
Su Yicheng felt doubtful and asked, “Jianan, how do you know it?”
Lu Boyan turned his head to Su Jianan, and happiness was obvious on the tip of his brows. “Jianan helped me prepare it during these days.” He masked his tone of flaunt skillfully.
Su Yicheng was depressed. “She was reluctant to go to my company before and even dickered with me about translating a file for me. Now, she can sacrifice her vacation to help Lu Enterprises? Jianan, I’m glad that you have grown up.”
Su Jianan blushed and coughed, and then she served Su Yicheng a piece of sirloin and said, “well, since it’s so, you should eat more.”
