Chapter 37 Examining her body

Jiang Ning did not resist until Lu Junyan threw him into a room at the Jingjiang Grand Hotel.

After all, it was the company's annual meeting, and no matter what grudges she had with Lu Junyan, she didn't want to make a big scene and become a laughing stock in the company.

However, at this moment, with only her and Lu Junyan in the guest room, Jiang Ning still couldn't help but feel nervous.

Lu Junyan looked at Jiang Ning, who resembled a hedgehog covered in quills, and curled the corners of his lips into a smile.

"Your dress is worth three million?"

He looked Jiang Ning up and down.

He wasn't unfamiliar with the ZM brand, but their formal wear generally cost around 100,000 yuan.

Jiang Ning could guess what Lu Junyan was thinking.

The dresses she and Gu Lanlan wore this time were ZM limited edition new products, so she really didn't scam anyone.

"What, Mr. Lu can't even afford three million?"

Jiang Ning knew very well that even if she explained, Lu Junyan would not believe her.

“I can afford it.” Lu Jun’s tone was calm yet resolute. “Don’t mention three million, I can afford three hundred billion.”

Jiang Ning clasped his hands tightly together behind his back.

Lu Junyan really went to great lengths for Chu Qingxue.

"I just wanted to remind you that next time you want to make money, you can think of a more sophisticated way."

Jiang Ning was amused by Lu Junyan's words, but she didn't say anything more. In any case, she felt perfectly justified in taking the three million.

After receiving the money, she was about to leave when the waiter brought her a new dress.

"You're not ashamed of yourself dressed like that, but I am. Don't forget whose secretary you are."

Lu Junyan brought the new dress to Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning was splashed with wine on her chest, and the color of her originally strapless dress became darker, which was quite noticeable.

Knowing that Lu Junyan was staring at her chest, Jiang Ning felt extremely uncomfortable and reached out her hand to Lu Junyan.

"Give me your clothes, I'll change myself."

Turn around.

Lu Junyan's voice was still calm, but his tone was an unquestionable command.

Jiang Ning was a little annoyed, but now that she and Lu Junyan were alone in the guest room, angering Lu Junyan would not do her any good.

In the end, she obediently turned around and faced away from Lu Junyan.

As the dress zipper was unzipped, cool air rushed into the body, along with the warmth of Lu Junyan's knuckles.

Jiang Ning's whole body stiffened.

She didn't know what Lu Junyan wanted to do to her.

The forced memories she had been forced to recall filled her with dread, making every hair on her body stand on end.

"It's just to help you change your clothes, don't be so nervous, you're not that attractive."

Lu Junyan's indifferent voice brushed past my ear.

Even after the dirty dress was completely removed, Jiang Ning still blushed.

She had been married to Lu Junyan for three years, and every part of her body had been seen by him. She didn't understand what she was shy about, especially since she wasn't wearing nothing under her dress.

The guest room was completely silent.

After helping Jiang Ning take off her dirty dress, Lu Junyan stopped moving.

He put one hand in his pocket and stared at Jiang Ning's back as if admiring a work of art.

Jiang Ning felt Lu Junyan's burning gaze, as if he were examining her body.

Inside the revolving buffet restaurant on the 57th floor.

The employees of Lu's Group are all gossiping about why Lu Junyan took Jiang Ning away and hasn't returned for so long.

"Is there something going on between President Lu and his secretary?"

"I heard that Jiang Ning was parachuted in, and he only has a high school diploma..."

"That makes sense."

"Even if she really has a relationship with President Lu, she's still a mistress. Look at how much President Lu spends on Chu Qingxue, is there any need to ask who the legal wife is?"

"President Lu is so outstanding, rich and handsome, it's normal for him to have a few women throwing themselves at him."

Colleagues gathered together, gossiping amongst themselves, all agreeing that this year's annual meeting was much more interesting than in previous years.

Jiang Ning had long anticipated that rumors would circulate between him and Lu Junyan.

With everyone watching, she was taken away from the annual meeting by Lu Junyan for so long that there was no doubt that rumors about her and Lu Junyan would spread throughout the company.

Jiang Ning just didn't expect that Chu Qingxue was involved in her scandal with Lu Junyan, and that she was the annoying third party.

"Qingxue, are you really not bothered? That Jiang Ning is so shameless!" Wang Qing and Chu Qingxue stood by the coffee machine, their voices so loud it seemed they were deliberately trying to make sure Jiang Ning could hear them.

"Clearly, the person Mr. Lu loves is you, and the one he's pursuing is you, yet she still has the nerve to throw herself at him like that."

Hearing this, Chu Qingxue smiled helplessly, "There's nothing I can do, Junyan is just too outstanding!"

Throughout the entire Lu Group, only Chu Qingxue used such an intimate term to address Lu Junyan.

"Oh my, look how lovey-dovey you are with President Lu."

Wang Qing teased Chu Qingxue, who touched her blushing face and glanced in the direction of Jiang Ning's workstation.

Jiang Ning was originally someone who didn't care much about rumors.

Especially since she knew she would divorce Lu Junyan sooner or later, and the whole company believed that Lu Junyan and Chu Qingxue were a couple, she couldn't be bothered to explain.

However, she could not accept being labeled as a mistress.

Jiang Ning thought that such gossip would only circulate for a few days and that everyone was just looking for something new.

For some reason, her gossip spread like wildfire, and more and more people in the company stood up for Chu Qingxue. Even the cafeteria lady told her, "I'm not going to serve food to that mistress. If you want to eat, go buy it yourself!"

Jiang Ning doesn't blame the cafeteria lady; who doesn't deeply despise mistresses?

But she couldn't let these rumors continue to fester; they were having a terrible impact on her reputation.

Chu Qingxue was clearly the mistress, so why should she bear the blame?

"Auntie, you've misunderstood. I'm not a mistress. I have a boyfriend. My boyfriend is very outstanding. And look at my qualities, even if I wanted to marry a rich man, there are so many rich men in the world. I don't need to be a mistress!"

When Aunt Jiang heard what he said, she felt that it made some sense.

She used to like Jiang Ning quite a bit.

The woman from Jiangning was beautiful and exceptionally polite; she always took the initiative to thank him.

However, rumors were circulating throughout the company that Jiang Ning was trying to become Lu Junyan's mistress and ruin Lu Junyan and Chu Qingxue's relationship. The rumors were so detailed that she gradually began to believe them.

"That's right, with your excellent qualities, what kind of woman can't you find? A young lady like you must not go down the wrong path."

Jiang Ning gave a wry smile.

It was clear that the other party was skeptical of her explanation.

"You'll believe me when I bring my boyfriend next time."

"I'd like to see it too..."

The sudden sound from behind Jiang Ning made him jump.

Turning around, she saw Lu Junyan with a smile on his lips.

Who could Secretary Jiang's boyfriend be?

Jiang Ning felt guilty as Lu Junyan stared at her with a sharp, mocking gaze.

"Come to my office after you finish eating."

After giving the order, Lu Junyan turned and left.

Jiang Ning saw Lu Junyan walk naturally to Chu Qingxue's seat, sit down and eat with her, attracting the attention of all the cafeteria staff.

Jiang Ning's lunch was unappetizing because the people at the next table were gossiping about her relationship with Chu Qingxue and Lu Junyan.

After finishing her meal, she knocked on Lu Junyan's office door, but no one answered.

As Lu Junyan's secretary, she had a key to the office door, so she opened the door and went in herself.

Lu Junyan told her to come to his office after she finished eating, but Lu Junyan himself was a full hour late.

Jiang Ning knew that Lu Junyan was not one to be late.

The only reason Lu Junyan could be an hour late for work is Chu Qingxue.

Lu Junyan arrived late. When he saw Jiang Ning in the office, he was stunned for a moment, but didn't say much, as if it was only natural for Jiang Ning to wait for him for an hour.

He sat down in the chair, flipping through a folder as he casually said to Jiang Ning:

"You need to go back to the old house to cook this Saturday."
