When her eyes met Lu Shijing's clear eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Director Lu? "Thank you …"

Lu Shijing smiled, then nodded.

"No need to thank me, be careful next time!"

As he spoke, he lifted his leg and strode inside the company.

Lee Zhixia stood still and stared at his back for a long time before she lightly shook her head and followed him back to the office.

Lee Zhixia's mind was always blank, and her mind was always confused as to why Lu Tingyun had a smile on the corner of his mouth. She was wondering what exactly he had done with his phone that caused her to feel uneasy all afternoon, until she heard from her colleague that it was time to get off work. Only then did she get up and go downstairs with her bag.

Downstairs, the traffic was so heavy that even though it was peak hours, it was difficult to get a taxi. She stood at the door for quite a while, unable to get a taxi.

As he was feeling anxious, he suddenly heard Lu Shijing's voice.

"Miss Lee didn't get a taxi?" Do you need me to send you off? "

Ah?

Lee Zhixia reflexively turned around and smiled at Lu Shijing. Her eyebrows unconsciously twitched.

"No need, I …"

Before she could finish, her phone in her bag suddenly rang. She could only quietly apologize and take out her phone.

The word 'husband' was written on it.

Seeing these two words, Lee Zhixia froze. She had never given anyone a nickname and it was always a direct name. This …

Her beautiful eyes moved slightly as she quickly reacted.

This... It couldn't have been Lu Tingyun.

The corner of her mouth twitched. Her long eyelashes moved slightly as she found it hard to believe. Wasn't Lu Tingyun rather calm on the surface? She didn't expect him to be so childish …

However … The relationship between them … It shouldn't be so intimate, right?

As her thoughts turned, she shook her head slightly and immediately pressed the answer button.

"Hey ~"

"Come here."

Ah?

At the other end of the phone, the man only said two words. Lee Zhixia's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. She instinctively looked around and saw a pure black Maybach parked not far away.

He turned around and smiled at Lu Shijing.

"Thank you, Director Lu, for your kind intentions, but I already have someone to take it from, so, sorry."

"It's fine, go on!" Lu Shijing smiled faintly and said gently.

Lee Zhixia didn't mind. She nodded politely and walked straight to the car parked nearby.

Standing where he was, Lu Shijing's smile gradually froze. He stared at her back for a long time before he finally lowered his head.

When they reached the car, Lee Zhixia quickly reached out her hand and opened the door. She sat on the car with a stooped back. Lu Tingyun was sitting on the leather seat as usual.

Lee Zhixia frowned, not understanding what he meant. Isn't it a contract relationship between them? They had to look for her twice in a day, and it was near the company. If someone saw this …

No!

If this continued, she definitely wouldn't be able to stay in the CR.

She really liked the design of the ship and wanted to learn more here, so right now … She couldn't leave the CR!

I have to make it clear to Lu Tingyun...

After some thought, she turned her head and hesitantly said.

"Lu …"

"Accompany me to a birthday party tonight. We're running out of time, let's go together."

As she spoke, there was a faint trace of anger mixed in with it. The inner qi in the carriage was so low that it was scary, Lee Zhixia frowned, she didn't know where this sudden anger came from, but hearing him say this, her nervous heart slowly relaxed.

What was she thinking? Why did she feel that Lu Tingyun had other intentions by looking for her so often?

However …

"Director Lu, although we are already married, our marriage is not publicly announced. I will accompany you to participate in the birthday feast, this … It's against the rules! "

"It's just an ordinary banquet."

This meant that she had no way to refuse!

Lee Zhixia bit her lips and resigned herself to her fate. Since she had chosen her own path, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue walking forward.

"… …"

Seven in the evening.

The car stopped at Ling Tian Hotel on time.

Seeing the banner outside the hotel, Lee Zhixia finally reacted. Today was the birthday of Ling Tian Group, Old Master Ling, and Old Master Ling had joined the army together with his grandfather when they were young. Lee Zhixia had always given Old Master Ling a present when she was overseas in the past.

After returning home this year, he had been discussing the wedding with Yan Yaoyang. He didn't expect that he had actually forgotten about Old Man Ling's birthday.

But …

Due to their relationship with Grandfather, the Ling Family had always been in contact with the Lee Family. How could Lee Deming not give up such an opportunity to please the Ling Family?

While she was lost in her thoughts, the car door in front of her opened. A waiter came to greet her. Lee Zhixia had no choice but to smile and get off the car.

Just as her hands were about to land on the gloved hands of the waiter, Lee Zhixia felt a pair of hands suddenly appear at her waist. She was then lifted up into the air.

She exclaimed and raised her eyes. Just as she was about to see who it was, she was already firmly put down. Lu Tingyun's hand slid across her slender waist and led her inside the banquet.

Not far away, Bai Yufeng, who just got out of the car, happened to witness this scene. His hands, which were hanging by his side, were tightly clenched.

If he wasn't wrong, it was … Lu Tingyun?

Zhixia had only been there for two days, how could she be so close to Lu Tingyun?

It wasn't until they reached the door that Lee Zhixia's heartbeat gradually calmed down.

What the heck was going on!?

Did Lu Tingyun have any spirit of cooperation! Hugging her in public like this … I'm not making it clear to everyone that their relationship... "Unusual …

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly. She slowly moved closer to Lu Tingyun, using her low voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Director Lu, I feel that I need to remind you that we are just cooperating. I do not wish for others to find out about our relationship, so … "Please …"

The corner of Lu Tingyun's mouth curled up slightly as he held her hand even more tightly. With a slight curve of his lips, he said lightly: "En."

Hm? What does that mean?

Lee Zhixia frowned and just as she was about to open her mouth to speak, she heard a deep voice suddenly resounding beside her ear.

"Xia!" Why are you here? "

Hearing Lee Deming's voice, Lee Zhixia's eyebrows suddenly jumped. She didn't move an inch, but the corner of her mouth raised into a coquettish smile. She turned her head and winked at the sullen Lee Deming.
