C23 What's Written on the Marriage Contract

After Lu Qiaoyu had completed all my work, he turned off the computer and stretched as he said to me, "Let's go, I'll send you home."

I quickly refused, "No need. It's getting late now, you should go back and rest early too."

After all, it was almost twelve o'clock at the midnight.

Lu Qiaoyu frowned slightly, "Why? You've just made used of me, and now you're burning your bridges behind you?"

I felt slightly embarrassed when he said that, so I could only agree with him to send me home.

When we arrived at the car park, he pointed at a blue sports car and a bike and asked, "Which one do you prefer?"

Then, I pointed at the bike.

Lu Qiaoyu smiled and said, "I knew you would choose this."

As he was saying that, he got up on his bike.

I sat in the back seat, and though he said I could put my hands on his waist if I wanted to, yet I refused.

During our college time, Lu Qiaoyu was the prince charming of every girl in the college and the back seat of his bike was something that they dreamed of.

It was a late summer night and the breeze was getting cooler, sitting in the back seat of his bike, enjoying the scenery of the neon lights on the night street.

It was as if we had traveled back in time into the days of our college life.

When we arrived at Jiang Qin's house, he looked at the shabby building and could not help but frown, "Are you living in this building?"

"Ehm... I've moved out from home and currently living with my friend," I roughly explained my current situation.

Lu Qiaoyu nodded.

Without asking further.

Only until he left, I wondered why was Lu Qiaoyu in our company. Was he a newcomer?

As I think, I walked down the corridor, and just as I stepped in there, a powerful hand grabbed on my wrist, and in the next second, I was pinned against the wall.

Then, a voice sounded in my ears, "Qin Jiaqi, have you forgotten what was written on our marriage agreement?"

There were no lights in the hallway, but I could tell it was Ji Qingxuan's voice.

"Of course I remember."

I did not know why Ji Qingxuan was here, but I had a clear conscience.

"Do you? Coming home with another man in the middle of the night? Is that something you should do?" Ji Qingxuan's face was so close to mine, and I could smell a strong alcohol scent from him.

It even made me feel slight drunk too.

I lifted up my gaze and met the man's dull black eyes, "Ji Qingxuan, since the beginning of this marriage until now, I have lived up to myself as well as my heart. Believe it or not!"

With that, I lowered my head, ducked under the man's arm and left.

Upstairs.

I turned my head slightly from the corner of the corridor, seeing the silvery moonlight shone on the man, causing him to look lonely for a second.

-

The next morning when I arrived at the office, Liu Ang called me over.

He told me that the new CEO had learned about my current situation and decided to arrange a company dormitory for me.

"For me?" I could not believe my ears.

As far as I know, the company's dormitories were only available to higher-level management employees. How was it possible for a nobody like me who had only been in the company for a year to obtain that opportunity.

"That's right, the new CEO Lu specially instructed us to do so," Liu Ang said as he took out a key, "This unit is in the residential area behind the company. It's only five minutes walk away from here."

"CEO Lu?"

When I heard the name, there was only one person came across my mind.

Liu Ang had other things to deal with, therefore, he let me out first.

Only then, I returned to my seat and gave a deep thought about it. My instinct told me that this President Lu should be Lu Qiaoyu.

During the lunch break, I went to the canteen for a meal. After I had just ordered some food and was about to sit down, there was a commotion at the entrance, I looked in that direction and saw that Lu Qiaoyu had also just ordered his meal.

Along the way, the employees was inviting him to sit next to them.

But he did not spare them a glance and walked straight toward me.
