Lu Anning's temper flared up all of a sudden. Facing Tang Jingyuan's questioning and thinking of Ye Lingfei's repeated boasting, she suddenly couldn't swallow this anger, even though she didn't want to argue about anything.
Especially tonight!
She shook off Tang Jingyuan's hand with force: "Tell you? When I called you, didn't you hang up so decisively? Do you know that I was being followed at the time? Ye Lingfei is precious and needs to be taken care of, but I am also an ordinary person. I would be scared too."
Tang Jingyuan was stunned. Was she being followed? When did she call him?
Lu Anning caught a hint of surprise in Tang Jingyuan's eyes and was stunned for a moment. Could it be that Tang Jingyuan didn't know that he had made a call?
Soon, Lu Anning gave up the idea. His phone was his personal belongings. No one else could touch it except him. Who else could hang up the phone except him?
He was probably busy chatting and laughing with Ye Lingfei at the time, and hung up without even seeing who was calling. None of this mattered anymore.
"I'm tired."
After saying that, Lu Anning didn't look at Tang Jingyuan again and went upstairs alone.
Tang Jingyuan stayed where he was until Lu Anning's back disappeared. He came to his senses and immediately checked his phone carefully. There was indeed no record of Lu Anning calling in the call log. She didn't look like she was lying, which meant that his phone had been touched by someone.
But his cell phone was always close to him, only...
Tang Jingyuan suddenly remembered something, his expression darkened, and he immediately understood.
Lu Anning was truly exhausted, and the first thing she did upon returning to her room was take a shower. The warm water soaked her entire body, dispelling the fatigue of the entire day, as well as the slight fear hidden deep within her heart.
When she discovered someone was following her today, she was indeed frightened. Because the enemy was in the dark, and she was in the light, people are often more subconsciously afraid of the unknown. As for Guo Jiayi and the others, Lu Anning didn't take them too seriously.
When she came out of the bathroom, Tang Jingyuan was already waiting in the bedroom. Seeing that he had changed into pajamas, he must have taken a shower in the next room during his free time. Lu Anning ignored him and went around to lie down on the other side of the bed. There was a space of one person between the two of them.
Seeing her deliberately avoiding him, Tang Jingyuan felt both angry and amused. He patiently moved closer, and Lu Anning moved away again. He moved closer, and she moved away again. Tang Jingyuan reached out and pulled her into his arms. Lu Anning struggled a few times, but he held her tighter, so she had to give up.
The two of them hugged each other tightly and no one spoke. She listened to Tang Jingyuan's steady breathing, and her heart, which had been angry just now, suddenly calmed down.
She smiled bitterly in her heart. They had always had a respectful marriage, so why did she suddenly become so hypocritical and serious? Thinking of this, she didn't want to be so hard on herself.
Wasn't she willing to marry him in the first place because he was handsome, had a good figure, was rich and didn't need to have children? Why was she still greedy for love now?
As soon as she thought about it, she reached out and hugged Tang Jingyuan. Her husband's arms were warm.
Tang Jingyuan was confused by Lu Anning's reaction. He was about to explain it in detail, but before he even opened his mouth, he figured it out?
Why is his wife a little different from what he imagined?
"I was wrong for not answering your call. I already know that you were being followed. Don't go to and from get off work alone in the future. I'm really too busy, so I'll let Lin Tao pick you up."
Lu Anning stopped talking immediately. "Don't bother. I've got some pepper spray in my bag. Just go ahead and do your thing. I can take care of myself and won't cause you any trouble."
"I never said you were my trouble. Today was just a misunderstanding. At that time, I..."
"Really, no need to explain." Lu Anning didn't want to listen. She yawned, found a comfortable position in Tang Jingyuan's arms, and closed her eyes: "I'm sleepy, good night!"
Whatever the reason, she guessed it was related to Ye Lingfei. So late at night, she really didn't want to hear the name of another woman.
Lu Anning acted as if she didn't care, but Tang Jingyuan felt depressed. Looking at the person who quickly fell asleep in his arms, he tightened his arms.
She must have been very scared at that time!
The next day at work, Tang Jingyuan insisted on sending Lu Anning to the company gate. Before getting off the car, he asked Lu Anning to take out his cell phone.
"What are you going to do?" She unlocked her phone and handed it to him in confusion. Tang Jingyuan operated it and actually set his number as the emergency contact in her phone.
"Give it a try! If anything happens in the future, you can contact me directly. What happened last night won't happen again."
This was Tang Jingyuan's assurance to Lu Anning. Lu Anning nodded, with a smile on his face.
Tang Jingyuan came to the office and immediately called Ye Lingfei to the office. Ye Lingfei came into the office with a smile on her face, delicate makeup and a fragrant breeze, but what she saw when she came in was Tang Jingyuan's serious face.
She restrained her smile and asked cautiously, "Jingyuan, what's making you unhappy so early in the morning?"
Tang Jingyuan stared at her and asked, "Last night, after dinner, when I went to the bathroom, you touched my phone."
Ye Lingfei was shocked. She didn't expect that he was looking for her for this matter. She felt guilty for a moment and didn't dare to look at him.
"I didn't..." She subconsciously wanted to deny it, but a cold voice interrupted her immediately.
"You know my temper, don't try to lie to me. I can find out if the call records have been deleted with just one phone call."
Ye Lingfei sighed and looked at Tang Jingyuan innocently. "The social event isn't over yet. What could Lu Anning, a team leader, do to you so late at night? I just didn't want her to ruin last night's plan. As it turns out, without you, she immediately chose another man. Jingyuan, these are just Lu Anning's tricks to attract you. She even told me that you were married on purpose. It shows that she has too many things on her mind. You should be more careful."
Tang Jingyuan raised his eyebrows: "Did she tell you? Why would she tell you this? Have you ever contacted her privately?"
