Chapter 1121: Best Actor Shen Is Jealous (7)
Everyone straightened their postures as they turned to look at him.
All the workers got to their feet and greeted him respectfully, “Mr. Lu!”
Lu Nanze nodded and, as though there was no one else in the room, he walked towards the female casters.
He approached Qiao Lian straightaway. Seeing that there was a platter of fruits in front of her, he lifted the plate, set it aside and said, “Hungry? I’ll take you to lunch. How can fruits fill up your stomach?”
At these words, he reached out for her wrist and led her out of the room. “It’s my fault, I’ve forgotten you’re pregnant. Pregnant women are always hungry. What do you like to eat? Tell me later and I’ll get them to buy the freshest fruits. We’ll stock the fridge too.”
Everyone was stunned.
Was this the aloof and devilishly charming Director Lu?
This was a henpecked man.
Qiao Lian had completely not expected that Lu Nanze would come to look for her personally.
She had thought that he would be upstairs in a meeting during lunch time.
But it was not until she had walked with him to the parking lot, got into the car and drove out, that Qiao Lian suddenly came to her senses. She grabbed Lu Nanze’s arm and asked, “Where are we going?”
He said unhurriedly, “Going for lunch. To a private restaurant. You’re pregnant so you can’t be eating just anything. You have to have nutritious meals.”
She nodded and said, “Ok.”
The private restaurant was very close to the office.
Very soon, they arrived.
After they had parked the car, they walked into a private room in the restaurant.
The meal had been ordered and now they were serving the dishes one by one.
“This is black chicken soup. Drink a bowl of this first. All of these dishes are dishes that you like.” As he said this, he moved the dishes closer to Qiao Lian and continued, “Eat up.”
Qiao Lian: ...
She looked at the dishes on the table. Indeed, they were all dishes that she loved.
And indeed, she was hungry. Besides, the food served in restaurants like this was probably safe. Hence, she picked up her chopsticks, ready to stuff herself.
Lu Nanze had bothered to remember clearly all of the dishes she loved.
At this thought, she cast her gaze down to hide the complex emotions that would have been apparent in her eyes.
As she stared at all of these dishes, her gaze suddenly fell on a basket of crab roe dumplings.
Her eyes lit up at once.
She reached out for the crab roe dumplings, but instead of putting them into her own mouth, she raised one with her chopsticks and moved it towards Lu Nanze, saying, “Ahhhhh. Open your mouth, look, I’m the only one eating everything here and you’re just watching! This crab roe dumpling is my way of thanking you.”
Lu Nanze was flabbergasted.
He looked at the crab roe dumpling like he had seen a ghost and his expression turned really odd. Looking at Qiao Lian intently, he said, “Why don’t you eat it? I—”
“Why aren’t you eating what I’ve picked out for you? Are my hands dirty? The crab roe dumpling is yummy and I’ve selected the tastiest thing for you.”
Lu Nanze was speechless.
Indeed, Qiao Lian loved crab roe dumplings, but...
Unfortunately, he, Lu Nanze, was allergic to crab roe.
Even the tiniest amount would cause his lips to swell in pain.
He wanted to decline, but the moment he opened his mouth to do so, she had shoved the crab roe dumpling in. At the same time, he saw her elated expression as she enthusiastically asked him, “Is it yummy?”
