Secretary Ji just remembered that Lu Jinghuai had asked him to book a restaurant for tonight, a couple's table, so Mr. Lu was distracted because he had a date with his wife in the evening?
Secretary Ji breathed a sigh of relief, but then thought of the question Lu Jinghuai asked him.
As a qualified secretary, he could naturally help his boss with anything. He thought about it and spoke tentatively based on his experience.
"A typical date would be dinner and a movie. It's best to give her a bouquet of flowers or a gift. The lady would be very happy."
Lu Jinghuai hummed, remembering that Lin Yan complained yesterday that there were no flowers in the confession.
He added flowers this morning, and Lin Yan seemed to be in a good mood. Lin Yan likes words. Confessions require flowers, and dates should also require them, right?
After thinking for a moment, Lu Jinghuai instructed, "Please prepare a bouquet of flowers and a gift for me."
"Okay, Mr. Lu." Secretary Ji responded with his eyes lowered.
Lu Jinghuai waved his hand to ask Secretary Ji to leave, but then paused and hesitated for a few minutes before speaking.
"Please pick out a few more gifts for me and bring them to me at noon for me to choose." It always felt strange for the secretary to help his wife choose gifts.
"Okay, Mr. Lu." Secretary Ji responded with a gift.
The gifts Lu Jinghuai gave out were naturally not too cheap. The selection range was jewelry from major brands. It was troublesome to transfer the goods at a temporary basis, and it was even more troublesome for Lu Jinghuai to send a few more pieces for him to choose from.
But it doesn’t matter, money makes the world go round.
At noon, Lin Yan still went to the cafeteria to eat with Tong Miaomiao, but Lu Jinghuai did not show up in the cafeteria today.
Lin Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt inexplicably lost. When she noticed this emotion, Lin Yan herself was a little shocked.
She quickly knocked her head to put Lu Jinghuai out of her mind, but failed.
Throughout the afternoon, the closer it got to the end of the workday, the more unsettled Lin Yan felt. She always felt...weird.
Finally, when Lin Yan couldn't help but look at the time for the nth time, Tong Miaomiao beside her couldn't help it and asked in a low voice.
"Why, do you have a date with Mr. Lu after get off work?"
Lin Yan paused. Is it so obvious?
Lin Yan did not answer Tong Miaomiao's question. Seeing that she was silent, Tong Miaomiao probably realized that she had guessed right. She chuckled and answered her doubts.
"You weren't so impatient to get off work before. However, you and Mr. Lu were having a quarrel a while ago, but you reconciled today."
"Not really." Lin Yan was also a little embarrassed. Perhaps too many things had happened in the past two days, and she also wanted to find a friend to talk to.
But in this world, her only true friend is Tong Miaomiao.
Perhaps she couldn't help herself and said a few more words: "The situation between Lu Jinghuai and me is quite complicated now."
"Let's talk." Tong Miaomiao showed interest and came over, lowering her voice: "There's still half an hour before get off work ends, just enough time for us to chat."
"Lu Jinghuai is pursuing me." Lin Yan bit her lower lip and still said it.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you young couple really know how to have fun." Tong Miaomiao couldn't help but blurt out.
Lin Yan's face was also a little hot, and she glared at Tong Miaomiao: "If you tease me again, I won't say anything."
How could I not speak out when I was halfway through listening to gossip? Tong Miaomiao quickly slid down to her knees and apologized.
"I was wrong! Keep going!"
"Our marriage is actually quite complicated..."
Lin Yan didn't know how to describe the inexplicable marriage between her and Lu Jinghuai.
When they got married, she was misled by the plot and always insisted that Lu Jinghuai liked Song Jingya, and Song Jingya was Lu Jinghuai's white moonlight. She also believed that Lu Jinghuai had to remain a virgin for Song Jingya, and she had no guard against Lu Jinghuai.
As a result, the two of them had a relationship by accident on the cruise ship, and later they went on a trip to Xiaoliang Village. It turned out that the whole plot was a misunderstanding, and Lu Jinghuai inexplicably fell in love with her.
Lin Yan now uses one word to describe herself: at a loss.
Tong Miaomiao on the other side nodded to herself after Lin Yan finished speaking.
"It's a family marriage, I understand."
It was much more complicated than a family marriage. Lin Yan hesitated to speak, but there were many things she couldn't say directly.
Tong Miaomiao thought she guessed right, so she thought for a moment and then spoke to comfort him.
"Yan Yan, according to what you said, Mr. Lu has developed feelings for you now. What about you? Do you have feelings for Mr. Lu? You just need to know what your feelings for Mr. Lu are."
Lin Yan pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer this question. In fact, when she first entered the book, she watched the development of the plot as a spectator.
She had no sense of involvement at all. Too many things happened later, and she couldn't just be a spectator.
But what about her feelings for Lu Jinghuai? Does she like Lu Jinghuai? Lin Yan couldn't answer.
Will she like Lu Jinghuai? The male protagonist in a domineering CEO novel.
Lin Yan couldn't answer this question. Perhaps it was the long silence that made Tong Miaomiao notice her hesitation.
Tong Miaomiao restrained the smile on her face and became much more serious.
"There are so many bad men in today's society. When getting married, people usually choose to find someone of equal status and cultivate feelings first before marriage. This can avoid a lot of trouble."
Although Tong Miaomiao's family situation is not as good as the Lu family, it is also good. If nothing unexpected happens, her parents will probably arrange for her to marry a man of equal status in the future.
"You and Mr. Lu might have had a loveless marriage at first, but Mr. Lu has developed feelings for you. Plus, Mr. Lu is handsome, wealthy, and capable. He's an excellent person, so it should be easy for him to fall in love with you."
"If you don't reject it, why not try it and try to like it? You're already married, there's nothing wrong with that principle. You two are meant to spend your lives together, you can't just get divorced."
"Unless I stay single for the rest of my life after my divorce, will the next person I meet really be better than Mr. Lu?"
Tong Miaomiao's words made Lin Yan ponder again.
According to her original plan, she was going to divorce and then take the alimony and leave, but the current situation might make it a bit troublesome for her to divorce Lu Jinghuai.
Lu Jinghuai likes her, so it is impossible for him to file for divorce. Then she has to file for divorce. If she files for divorce, Lu Jinghuai is not the one at fault. Even if Lu Jinghuai gives her child support, would she really have the nerve to accept it?
and…
After the divorce, she probably couldn't go back to the Lin family, and she would feel embarrassed to stay at Lu's, so she would definitely have to resign.
By then she will have to find a new job and support herself. Will she remain single or marry again? Will Lu Jinghuai be the next one?
Lin Yan suddenly realized that what Tong Miaomiao said was very realistic, but it was indeed something she needed to consider.
She didn't expect that someone as carefree as Tong Miaomiao could say such words, but she was troubled by this matter for a long time.
Lin Yan took a deep breath to calm down, and sincerely thanked Tong Miaomiao: "Thank you, Miaomiao."
Tong Miaomiao waved her hand cheerfully: "Why thank me? You are my best dining partner. Isn't it normal for me to help you out when you encounter something confusing?"
"It's just right, it's time to get off work, go and have a date with Mr. Lu."
Tong Miaomiao glanced at the time and winked playfully: "Tsk tsk tsk, Mr. Lu, even if nothing else, he won't let you suffer any loss just by looking at your appearance."
