After Divorce: Pursued by Cohabiting Boss
Chapter 97: Don’t Worry about it
Chapter 97
As Xiao Xiao was washing clothes, she didn't quite understand what she heard and hurried out.
Seeing Li Zhen instantly, her heart skipped a beat.
Xiao Xiao worked in the public relations department. Before today's stage performance, she had never seen Li Zhen before.
But now she recognized her.
"Li Zhen, what are you..." Xiao Xiao looked at the things in Li Zhen's hands, having a bad premonition.
If the person hadn't called her name, Li Zhen would have thought she went to the wrong place when she saw the man.
"Hello, my dormitory was arranged here." Li Zhen hesitated and glanced at the man, "But if it's inconvenient for you, I can apply for another dormitory?"
Xiao Xiao noticed Li Zhen's gaze and quickly said, "This is my boyfriend, he came from my hometown to see me and will stay for a few days before leaving. Don't worry about staying here."
The man had already entered the room.
Xiao Xiao helped carry two bags and led Li Zhen into the room, then returned to her own room.
Li Zhen wiped every corner of the bedroom with a handkerchief before realizing that she had forgotten to buy the most important thing: bed sheets, quilts and pillows.
She went downstairs again and bought them at the supermarket, huffing and puffing as she carried them upstairs.
As she opened the door and put the stuff in there, just as she was about to close the door...
A slender, long-fingered hand reached in from outside, grasping the door frame. 𝗳r𝚎e𝘄𝐞b𝚗𝗼ve𝚕.co𝗺
Li Zhen's heart jumped, and she lifted her leg to kick the man's most vulnerable spot, but her knee was blocked by the man's hand.
Li Zhen opened her mouth to yell, "Xiao..."
The next second.
The man raised his hand to cover Li Zhen's lips, flashed in, and single-handedly slung Li Zhen over his shoulder. His foot slammed the door shut with a "bang".
The man's strength was terrifying.
With one hand covering her mouth and the other holding her waist, Li Zhen's struggles didn't move him one bit.
The man went into the open bedroom, locked the door, and put Li Zhen down.
Li Zhen was dazed and dizzy from being carried. Her legs went soft as she touched the ground.
Her waist was steadily held by the man.
"Li Zhen, were you calling me just now?" Xiao Xiao's voice came from the door.
Li Zhen came to her senses, and before she could make a sound, her lips were blocked.
The fierce kiss deprived Li Zhen of oxygen.
She forced herself to regain clarity, and once again lifted her knee to kick the man's vulnerable spot.
Maybe the man was too passionate with the kiss, or maybe he didn't expect Li Zhen, who could only lean against the door, to still be able to fight back.
Li Zhen had already lost most of her strength, but she still kicked him hard enough to elicit a muffled groan from the man.
Xiao Xiao stood outside the door for a while without hearing any movement before leaving.
The man released her and took half a step back.
Li Zhen was about to yell loudly, but when she saw the person in front of her clearly, her brows furrowed in disbelief. "President Lu, how could you..."
"I was wrong." Lu Yanming, dressed in an exquisite, well-tailored suit, with gold-rimmed glasses perched on his tall nose, stood quietly in front of Li Zhen, his earlier domineering aura completely gone, instead looking aggrieved.
Li Zhen was still breathing unevenly, blocked by the three words. She said angrily, "I'm here again, did you have Assistant Fei find out where I was again?"
"It's got nothing to do with me. He took it upon himself to find out and tell me." Lu Yanming's tone was calm.
As if aware that his own voice was too superior, he deliberately spoke leisurely in a melodious, magnetic tone that was rather ticklish.
Downstairs in the car, Fei Zhao sneezed.
Li Zhen was still angry that Lu Yanming had investigated her whereabouts, but now she felt a little stifled, both angry and annoyed.
She lifted her chin slightly. "President Lu, you don't think that just because it's been two days, it's all in the past, do you?"
"I didn't think that." Lu Yanming held up a thick stack of bound A4 documents in midair. "Here, my self-reflection report."
Li Zhen took it doubtfully and flipped it open...
"Self-Reflection Summary Report on Disrespecting Miss Li Zhen's Privacy."
Li Zhen took a quick look. It was a total of 136 pages, a color printed PPT, combining text and pictures, with precise logical texts and beautiful images.
It elaborated in detail on self-reflection regarding disrespect for privacy from sixteen different aspects.
Li Zhen was stunned. "President Lu, this is..."
Lu Yanming said, "Yes, I stayed up all night to make it."
Li Zhen: ...
She didn't ask when he made it, did she?
Lu Yanming added, "To be precise, I didn't eat or drink for two days and nights while making it."
Li Zhen: ...
Can't feel sorry for him, can't feel guilty!
"Can it make you less angry? Can you accept my sincerity?" Lu Yanming took a step closer, instantly shortening the distance between them. "Or, you can kick me once more, and we'll be even, can't we?"
"Since I've hurt you, why don't you sit down and rest?" Li Zhen was enveloped in the familiar woody fragrance, making it hard to breathe.
Sandwiched between the door and Lu Yanming, the cramped space made her feel very unsafe.
She felt like the man in front of her was like a big gray wolf, ready to easily tear her apart with his jaws.
Li Zhen tried to move to the left to get around him.
"No need to sit down, let's talk it out first." Lu Yanming's tall figure also moved with her, trapping her here and unable to move.
Li Zhen was annoyed. "Let me go first, then we'll talk."
"You answer me first, can we be even?" Lu Yanming stubbornly lowered his head to ask her.
When he spoke, his chest rumbled with low vibrations. They were so close that Li Zhen could even feel the frequency of his heartbeat.
Again and again.
Very powerful.
Unlike her, trapped here by Lu Yanming, locked in this tiny space by his aura, her heartbeat had been erratic for some time now, both angry and annoyed.
Li Zhen took a deep breath, forcing herself to ignore her racing heart, and said, "We can't be even, President Lu. I may not be suitable to help you anymore. Our marriage..."
"Hiss..." Lu Yanming suddenly let out a low sigh, bent slightly, and rested his chin on Li Zhen's shoulder.
Li Zhen's whole body stiffened. "What's wrong, President Lu?"
Lu Yanming's voice was low and deep. "It hurts a bit, let me rest for a moment."
He was probably hurt where Li Zhen had kicked him earlier. Li Zhen didn't dare to move, letting him lean on her like that.
Where Li Zhen couldn't see, the corners of Lu Yanming's lips curled up slightly.
His chin nudged and rubbed against Li Zhen's straight, slender shoulder.
He nestled into a comfortable position.
Just leaning quietly against her like this.
Li Zhen asked carefully, "President Lu, do you feel better now?"
It’s said that place is the most vulnerable for men.
Li Zhen wondered what if she really damaged him there, how could she afford to pay for it!
Lu Yanming's breathing grazed Li Zhen's ears intermittently, his voice magnetic and powerful. "Hard to say, maybe I need to test it out to see if it still works."
Li Zhen nodded. "Okay."
Li Zhen agreed too readily.
Lu Yanming was slightly surprised and straightened up to look at her, chuckling lightly. "Do you know what I mean by testing it out?"
"Of course I know, but I don't have a condom here. We'll have to go downstairs to buy one first." Li Zhen looked up at him, her shockingly beautiful eyes glistening as she watched him.
Lu Yanming couldn't help it. He leaned down to kiss her eyes. "Alright."
Li Zhen opened the door and carefully checked that Xiao Xiao's door was closed before opening it wide for Lu Yanming to follow her out.
The two of them left.
Lu Yanming had walked two steps when there was a sudden "bang" behind him.
He looked back.
The empty corridor was left with only him.
There wasn't even a trace of Li Zhen.
Li Zhen sent him a message from behind the door.
[President Lu, do you take me for a 3-year-old kid to coax? You're still wanting to "test" if it hurts? Walk slowly, don't see you off!]
Lu Yanming: ...
He noticed something was off when she agreed too readily, yet he was still engrossed by her eyes.
As expected, a beauty is misleading.
