Perhaps because Lin Chen’s secretary was too shocked by the scene of Lu Yunfan’s forceful kiss on Lin Chen, he couldn’t control his actions. His hand slipped, and he didn’t manage to grab onto the door handle. Instead, he made a loud thud.
Lu Yunfan jolted back in shock and looked towards the door. She frantically covered her lips with the back of her hand, as if she was the one being forced to kiss.
Lin Chen’s secretary also raised his head and met the young lady’s gaze. He saw the young lady’s red face, which reminded him of a cooked prawn.
“I’m… sorry!” Lin Chen’s secretary hurriedly covered his eyes with his hands as he bowed out the door. “Sorry, sorry! President Lin, I didn’t do it on purpose! Ms. Lu, please continue! You guys continue!”
Hearing his secretary’s loud voice, Lin Chen was rendered speechless.
Was he shouting so loudly for the other employees to hear about what happened in his office?
Was this secretary stupid, or did Lu Yunfan hire this secretary?
The door slammed shut.
Lu Yunfan, who had mustered up the courage to press Lin Chen against his chair and force a kiss, seemed to have lost all of her courage. Her eyes darted left and right, not daring to look into Lin Chen’s eyes.
The awkward atmosphere between the two of them was suspenseful.
From the corner of her eye, she could tell that Lin Chen was staring at her. His gaze was probing and unhappy. Lu Yunfan laughed awkwardly and said, “Hahaha… Well, I should go! Let’s… let’s meet some other time, Brother Lin Chen!”
With that, Lu Yunfan pressed down on her bag and walked out quickly with her head lowered.
The young lady hung her head so low that if it weren’t for Lin Chen reminding her of a “door”, she would have definitely knocked into it.
When Lu Yunfan walked out of Lin Chen’s office, she saw that everyone in the secretary office, which was already filled with gossip to begin with, had gathered, chit-chatting with each other. Lu Yunfan’s sudden appearance had given them a scare, causing them to hush and blink at Lu Yunfan.
Lu Yunfan’s ears turned even redder. She lowered her head even more and ran towards the elevator. She was afraid that the secretaries might have accidentally overheard something. If that were the case, she would jump off the building in embarrassment.
After entering the elevator, Lu Yunfan finally calmed down.
What should she do? She had kissed Brother Lin Chen!
She was so straightforward, brave, and recklessly kissed Brother Lin Chen!
Thinking how brazen she was, she felt excited but was also shy!
How would she meet Brother Lin Chen in the future?
She came here to tell Brother Lin Chen that his girlfriend was a lesbian. How did the situation end up in such a strange manner because of Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf?
Bang!
Once the elevator arrived, Lu Yunfan hurriedly got out of the elevator and dashed out of the Lin Corporation’s building as though she was escaping from something. Lu Yunfan didn’t even have the courage to turn back until she got into a taxi and closed the door.
…
Lin Chen was standing by the windows in his office on the top floor of Lin Corporation’s building. He had both hands in his pockets as he watched Lu Yunfan flee into the taxi downstairs. Only then did he turn around and return to his desk, picking up his pen.
But… as he looked at the documents in front of him, the pleasant fragrance of the young lady’s soft and tender lips filled his mind.
His lips felt a little numb as if they had been electrocuted…
Lin Chen frowned, subconsciously touching the corner of his lips.
This was his first time… kissing a girl.
He recalled how he had always detested the thought of it in the past. But this time, he realized that he didn’t hate it that much.
Perhaps it was because the one who kissed him… wasn’t detestable.
Lu Yunfan was on tenterhooks because she had forced a kiss on Lin Chen.
Lin Chen, on the other hand, felt a little strange because he didn’t dislike the kiss…
Lin Chen had never experienced this kind of feeling before. His heart… seemed to be beating a little faster than usual.
All these years, Lin Chen had never been enlightened about relationships. The only thing he knew was that he had fallen for Lin Nuan. But it was only after Liang Mulan asked Lin Chen to marry Lin Nuan that he realized he had a different feeling towards his younger sister.
Right now, Lin Chen’s heart was beating faster from Lu Yunfan’s kiss. Was it because he had never experienced such a novelty before, or was it because he had a different feeling towards Lu Yunfan? Lin Chen couldn’t tell.
Lin Chen, who didn’t have the heart to work that afternoon, got off work early and went home. Liang Mulan, who was watering the plants in the yard, got a shock. “What happened?”
Lin Chen: “???”
“Have you gotten off work already?”
Seeing Lin Chen’s puzzled expression, Liang Mulan asked.
“Yes?” Lin Chen casually placed his suit jacket under his arm and loosened his tie.
“Aiyo! My workaholic son can actually get off work on time. Is the sun rising from the west today?” Liang Mulan pretended to look east. “I didn’t see the sun setting in the east either!”
Lin Chen was speechless.
“Mom, aren’t you overreacting?” Lin Chen said before walking toward the house.
“Ah! I got it. Tomorrow is the opening of that young lady’s art gallery. You came back early today to prepare for it, right?” Liang Mulan was elated only to frown again. “That’s not right. You’re in a relationship with the Gao family’s daughter. Why are you still having your sights on others? No way, Xiao Chen, Mom doesn’t agree to you being a scumbag! Since you’ve already decided to be in a relationship with Miss Gao, you should be good to her. Don’t break her heart!”
“Mom, what the hell are you saying!”
Lin Chen shook his head and entered the house…
Lin Chen couldn’t take Liang Mulan’s excessive concern for his marriage.
What was even scarier was that ever since Lin Ran’s matter was settled, his mother had become more and more imaginative…
Sometimes, Lin Chen even thought that Liang Mulan’s imagination was on par with Lu Yunfan’s. If they were to sit together, they would definitely have a good time chatting with each other.
Lin Chen thought of Lu Yunfan again as he walked up the stairs. He couldn’t help but feel unhappy. Why did he keep thinking of that young lady?
After removing his tie, Lin Chen returned to his room to take a shower.
It was rare for him to come back early. After taking a shower, he went on to read on the single-seater sofa. His phone on the coffee table vibrated.
Lin Chen picked up his phone and glanced at it. It was Lu Yunfan.
[Lu Yunfan: Brother Lin Chen, I’m very sorry for tainting you today, but I really couldn’t control my action. It was on impulse! I hope you don’t mind. At least don’t hate me. We’re still good friends, okay?]
Lin Chen looked at Lu Yunfan’s message and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Who was her good friend? And what did she mean she had tainted him?
Whom did this kid learn Chinese from when she was young? What a mess!
Lin Chen subconsciously touched his lips and locked the phone screen. Just as he was about to put the phone down, the phone vibrated again in his palm.
[Lu Yunfan: Brother Lin Chen, don’t ignore me. I’m scared you’d ignore me! Have you blocked me?]
[Lu Yunfan: Ah… No, you haven’t blocked me. I wouldn’t be able to message you if you did!]
