Chapter 86
Jiang Keyan's face turned pale white.
Today she had wanted to rescue her sister and take down the trending topic, but she didn't manage to rescue her. Instead, Honghai Corporation ruthlessly pushed her sister into the public eye without any cover.
That was equivalent to completely ruining her sister!
Yu Sheng remained silent beside her. Lu Yanming's solution was probably also what Li Zhen hoped for the most.
In the "Masculine Banquet" group chat, someone was typing a live broadcast of the situation.
Everyone in the group was thrilled!
[So satisfying, serves that harmful person right.]
[Boss Lu looks gentle and reasonable on the surface, but he can actually be so ruthless!]
[Sisters, think about it. For a woman her age to become the deputy CEO of Honghai, could she be simple?]
[I used to only love Boss Lu's looks! Now I'm elevating it to stanning Boss Lu's career!]
Lu Yanming walked to the door and turned around to look at the head of public relations, "If there's nothing else, let's wrap up for today."
"Yes, Boss Lu!" The public relations manager nodded obsequiously and said to everyone, "Meeting adjourned, you can leave now."
Lu Yanming had already started walking away.
Wang Peng hurried to catch up.
Everyone else got up and trickled out.
Li Zhen followed behind Ren Zongshun. Ren Zongshun thought carefully and felt something was off, "Li Zhen, what's your private relationship with Boss Yu and Boss Lu?"
"No interactions at all." Li Zhen's heart jumped at the question.
"But..." Ren Zongshun frowned, not making sense of it, "Why do I feel like Boss Lu and Boss Yu both came today for you?"
"Impossible, they were here for company matters." Li Zhen's eyes darted around evasively.
She secretly took out her phone and messaged Lu Yanming, [Thanks, Boss Lu.]
Lu Yanming: [Just a verbal thanks? Not sincere enough.]
Li Zhen quickly turned off her phone.
She understood Lu Yanming's implication all too well. Her thoughts had already turned dirty in broad daylight!
After work, Li Zhen got into Lu Yanming's car and headed to the grand theater.
Li Zhen sneakily took out a mysterious candy from her bag, "Boss Lu, a small token of thanks."
The soft candy lay quietly in Li Zhen's palm.
Her hand was soft, and the candy was soft as well.
Lu Yanming reached out to take it. His long fingertips brushed over Li Zhen's palm.
A tingling sensation made Li Zhen's heartbeat lose its rhythm.
Lu Yanming put down the backseat table and placed the items from his pocket onto it, "I know you want to rush and don't eat dinner again, so I prepared this in advance."
The food on the table was diverse and plentiful.
Li Zhen's eyes instantly lit up, "Boss Lu, you've prepared too fully."
No, many real married couples couldn't even achieve this.
Li Zhen was full of doubts.
She left the theater with Lu Yanming. Fei Zhao had already calculated the timing and was waiting by the car.
The two got in the car. Fei Zhao immediately turned on the AC.
Having just been suffocated in the rehearsal room, Li Zhen's clothes were still drenched in sweat and sticking to her body, making her very uncomfortable.
"Assistant Fei, could you lower the AC a bit more?" Li Zhen waved her right hand, fluttering her clothes to let the cold air in the car flow up along the hem.
As she fluttered, the neckline also oscillated along.
Lu Yanming's gaze shifted to the side to look at her, and was met with flashes of milky white.
He retracted his vision, looking out the window instead, "Can't lower the temperature anymore."
Fei Zhao had just cranked it up high.
Now it was turned down small immediately.
Li Zhen's brows furrowed slightly, smoothing her hand over his back. It was all sweat. She held it out in front of him, "You're all sweat too, aren't you hot?"
The soft little hand brushed swiftly over Lu Yanming's back, along with the moist liquid, and pressed against his muscles for a moment.
"Suddenly too cold and you'll catch a cold." Lu Yanming looked back at her.
"Assistant Fei, lower it a bit more. I'd rather catch a cold..." Li Zhen was drenched in sweat, unable to stand the heat.
Fei Zhao could only open it up again.
Lu Yanming pulled out a tissue and wiped the sweat off her forehead, instructing, "No, turn it up."
Fei Zhao closed it small again...
Lu Yanming wiped down her face starting from Li Zhen's forehead, her cheeks, behind her ears, meticulous and unhurried.
Li Zhen was too hot to move. Her husbandly figure's care was just to her liking. She leaned lazily against the seat, letting Lu Yanming wipe her.
When Lu Yanming wiped her collarbone, the spring scene revealed through the neckline's oscillation fell directly into his eyes again.
Jin City's summer night was like fire.
A light breeze could ignite a prairie fire.
Even each breath was stuffily heated.
Lu Yanming closed his eyes briefly, "It is a bit hot, turn the AC down."
Fei Zhao: ......
What were these two doing!
Were their phones not fun enough, or the night view outside not pretty enough, that they had to torment him?
Fei Zhao helplessly turned the temperature down.
Li Zhen was very happy with this. "Boss Lu, you're the best."
"A 'thank you' is just a verbal statement. A compliment is also just a verbal statement." Lu Yanming's tissue had been completely soaked by Li Zhen's sweat. He took another to continue wiping her, "Next time, can you show thanks in a more sincere way?"
"For example?" Li Zhen looked askance at him.
Lu Yanming pondered for two seconds before saying lightly, "For example, doing..."
