The next day, a woman knocked on the door of Du Yanqing's office and walked in self-consciously. She coincidentally noticed the small pillow and blanket on the sofa, causing her to be slightly stunned. Without much thought, he placed the document on the table. Unconsciously, she heard the sound of water coming from the inside, making her feel a sense of strangeness.

The curiosity in his heart drove him to the door of the inner room. Unintentionally, he bumped into a bottle of Bath Dew. She made a sound, causing a trace of panic to flash past her eyes. She was so shocked that she didn't dare to move. Without waiting for her to ponder further, Du Yanqing's questioning voice came from the other side of the room: "Is that Luo Yan?"

"Yes, I have received the Director Du documents according to Manager Xia's instructions, I will be leaving now."

Xi Luo Yan glanced at the door, pursed his lips to prevent Du Yanqing from suspecting anything, and decisively chose to leave. However, due to her gossiping mind, she did not ignore the things that she had encountered, silently summarizing them in her mind.

During the tea time, Luo Yan had seen many of his friends. After hearing that they were discussing the situation of Lu Juyan and Du Yanqing returning to the company in the middle of the night, summing up the scenes from earlier, he began to discuss about the Director Du with them in a low voice.

Humans were gossipy creatures, so many people treated this conversation as a joke. However, there were also many people who unwittingly spread the news. Not long later, the people of the company started to spread the news that Du Yanqing might be living in the office, along with many other editions.

In a room, Lu Juyan went to the bathroom to wash himself after waking up. The moment he turned off the shower, he realized that the shower was placed outside the door. Sensing Du Yanqing's voice, he immediately wiped off the water droplets on his body with a towel, put on his clothes and walked out.

Earlier that second, Du Yanqing had coincidentally walked out of the room, and his line of sight just happened to notice the blanket on the sofa, which was folded very naturally. As he turned to bring the bedding into the room, Lu Juyan, who was inside, just happened to open the door, and the two of them looked at each other awkwardly.

Lu Juyan took a step back and allowed Du Yanqing to walk inside. He noticed that someone had bumped into the Body Bath Dew at the side of the door. Not allowing him to think any further, his phone rang. Lowering his eyes, he stared at the number on the screen. A trace of irritation flashed through his eyes.

When he walked out of Du Yanqing's office, the secretary said hello to him. He strode forward, stopped at a corner, and pressed the answer button. Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a voice from the other side of the phone, "Today's family reunion. Come back quickly!"

Lu Yuqiu, who was sitting in the study room, opened the curtain and saw his blood-related brother bringing his grandson out. This made him feel embarrassed. His brows slightly knitted, and his tone towards Lu Juyan also became a little worse, his calm tone stained with a sullen aura.

"No!"

Lu Juyan rejected her without hesitation. Regarding Lu Yuqiu's orders, he had no intention to follow them. Out of the corner of his eye, he consciously glanced behind him. He was afraid that someone would secretly follow him, so he had to pay attention to the details.

"You don't want to take a woman and live anymore?"

In that instant, Lu Yuqiu slammed his palm against the cabinet at the side, and the curtain slid down. The light inside the room became much weaker. His expression was much colder. Under the dim light, his face was like a fiend from hell, causing those who saw it to feel fear and trepidation.

He once again chose to use Du Yanqing as a threat, only because Lu Juyan would be obedient. This made him feel a strong sense of defeat. The chairman of Jiashi Group was actually no better than a divorced woman. The corner of his mouth curled up into a ridiculing smile. His palms were secretly clenched into fists, as if he was plotting something.

"I'll go back later!"

Lu Juyan, who was dissatisfied, did not dare to resist. His eyebrows knitted together into a square, and after being silent for a long time, the atmosphere also became stiff for a long time. Just when Lu Yuqiu thought that Lu Juyan would hang up the phone, coldly said that and directly ended the call.

Lu Juyan understood Lu Yuqiu's actions too well, which was why he gave in to him time and time again. His love for Du Yanqing was too deep, which was why he kept lowering his bottom line and becoming more and more unlike him.

He looked out the window at the free soaring bird. His gloomy face gradually recovered a lot, and the thoughts in his heart also stabilized a lot. A trace of determination flashed through his eyes, as if he had already started to plan something meticulously. There were too many emotions in his heart, so he murmured subconsciously, "Wait a little longer!"

Inside the office, Du Yanqing walked out from the back and did not see Lu Juyan's figure. The only thing he noticed was the shower gel. A complicated feeling flashed through his heart. He consciously picked it up and put it in the bathroom, then returned to his office chair and began to work seriously.

"I need to take a day off. I have something to do at home."

Only when Lu Juyan's emotions calmed down did he come out from the corner and walk towards Du Yanqing's office with a cold expression. Looking at her serious face, he pursed his lips and started speaking. His mood was exceptionally calm, causing others to be unable to guess at his thoughts.

Lu Juyan's overly calm appearance actually made Du Yanqing's heart slightly tremble, as if something had happened to her own family. Putting down the brush in his hand, he looked up into Lu Juyan's deep eyes, which had a hint of worry in them. He could not help but ask: "Sure, but what happened to your family?"

The moment the words left her mouth, she realized that her mouth was gaping and she quickly shut it, accidentally biting her tongue. Her face revealed a painful expression, and coincidentally, because of her lowered head, she was not discovered by Lu Juyan.

"Is it because you like me that you're worried?"

These concerned words caused Lu Juyan's eyes to reveal a sense of wanting to tease Du Yanqing. He walked forward and lifted her lower jaw slightly with his fingertips, staring at her clear eyes. There was a slight smile on his lips as he joked.

Du Yanqing looked at Lu Juyan who had enlarged his face by several times, and his heart tensed up. Faintly sensing Lu Juyan's other actions, her heart had a hint of panic. To prevent misunderstandings, she subconsciously slapped Lu Juyan's hand that was placed under her chin away. Her ears started to turn red, and she stubbornly replied: "I didn't!"

Her gaze was lowered subconsciously, and her heartbeat sped up. She pretended to be serious while looking at the documents on the table, ignoring Lu Juyan's every move. However, her thoughts fluctuated tremendously, causing her heart to be unable to calm down.
