The final word, "Get out," was squeezed out from between his teeth, cold and resolute.
Having long held a high position, Lu Yanting exuded a chilling and aloof aura that instantly filled the entire room, like an invisible pressure that made Tian Jingjing almost unable to breathe.
She felt a chill run down her spine and her limbs went weak; she could only swallow her resentment for the time being.
She hurriedly put on her coat and rushed out the door in a disheveled state.
After Tian Jingjing's figure completely disappeared, Lu Yanting slowly got up, looked around the room with a gloomy expression, irritably took out a cigarette from the cigarette pack, lit it, took a deep drag, and then dialed Yan Kai's number.
"Tomorrow, arrange for someone to come to Qiushui Yaju as quickly as possible to replace all the furniture in the house and then thoroughly disinfect it!"
After a few replies on the other end of the phone, Lu Yanting hung up. He strode straight to the door, entered the password, and pushed the door open to walk into the apartment across the hall.
In the master bedroom, Qiu Mang was already asleep. In her dream, she felt a warm sensation on her lips, as if someone was gently sucking on them. Then, her pajamas were quietly removed one by one.
Qiu Mang slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw that the person who came was Lu Yanting, she closed her eyes again with peace of mind and obediently responded to the man's intimate actions.
"Didn't you say you weren't coming tonight?" Qiu Mang asked lazily, still feeling sleepy.
Lu Yanting gently kissed her earlobe, his warm breath brushing against her ear, and whispered, "I had no choice. I saw some disgusting things today, and I felt really nauseous. I could only find some comfort here."
"Disgusting?" Qiu Mang asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Okay, I won't say anything more. Focus." The man's voice was husky as his warm, wet kisses moved down from her ear, along her long neck.
Meanwhile, when Tian Jingjing returned to her residence that evening, the house was still pitch black. She reached out and turned on the light, the dim yellow light illuminating the old and dilapidated furniture, and a strange sense of irritation welled up in her heart like a tide.
She had just suffered a lot of grievances at Lu Yanting's place, and she thought that she could get some comfort when she returned to Ji Lun's place, but to her surprise, the house was empty and there was not a single person in sight!
A nameless rage suddenly erupted in Tian Jingjing's heart. Her eyes widened in fury, and she kicked the door with a loud bang that echoed in the silent room.
The woman gritted her teeth and said, "Jilun, you're always nowhere to be found, so don't blame me for finding someone else to back me up!"
At the same time, Ji Lun had just gotten off the electric scooter when he couldn't help but sneeze.
"Number 106, number 106! Your order is ready! Come and pick it up!" The milk tea shop was bustling with activity, and a girl in a work uniform shouted at the top of her lungs.
Ji Lun strode in. When the female shop assistant handed him the milk tea, she glanced up and saw that the man was tall and handsome, dressed in a sharp suit and tie, looking every bit the elite white-collar worker. She was momentarily stunned.
Ji Lun took the bag from the girl, a gentle smile playing on his lips, and said softly, "Thank you."
The girl slightly opened her mouth, a blush rising on her fair cheeks, and stammered, "Um... are you here to deliver food too?"
Ji Lun smiled wryly and said, "Yes, after work, I want to earn some extra money."
As the girl watched Ji Lun's figure disappear through the doorway, she seemed to muster immense courage and suddenly called out, "Sir! Please wait a moment!"
Ji Lun turned around at the sound, his eyes full of confusion, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
The girl glanced at the lone bag in his hand, her cheeks burning even hotter. With a hint of shyness, she reminded him, "Is this your first day delivering food? Usually, people deliver several orders at a time. If you deliver one order at a time like this, you probably won't even earn enough to cover the electricity bill for your electric scooter."
Ji Lun nodded slightly and explained, "This is my first day delivering, so I'm not very skilled yet. I'm afraid something might go wrong on the way."
"Oh..." Upon hearing this, the girl lowered her head somewhat helplessly, like a child who had made a mistake.
"However, thank you for reminding me anyway." Ji Lun held up the takeout bag in his hand, smiling brightly.
It was past 1 a.m. when Ji Lun finished his food delivery and dragged his tired body home.
Seeing that Tian Jingjing was already fast asleep, Ji Lun tiptoed around, quickly washed up, and quietly lay down on the bed.
The next day after get off work, Ji Lun originally planned to continue delivering food, but as soon as he got downstairs, he saw Tian Jingjing waiting at the door.
Ji Lun smiled, stepped forward, and held Tian Jingjing's hand tightly, saying softly, "Jingjing, thank you for your hard work."
Coincidentally, Mr. Sun happened to appear at that moment. He spotted the two of them immediately and walked over to greet them familiarly.
History repeated itself, and Mr. Sun once again offered to give the two a ride, claiming it was on his way. Tian Jingjing had always had a fondness for BMWs, and this time, she got into Mr. Sun's car without hesitation.
Ji Lun was still driving, while Tian Jingjing and President Sun sat in the back seat.
"Xiao Ji, you've really had a hard day today, being my driver again. I feel really bad about it." Mr. Sun said with a smile, his tone tinged with apology.
"Mr. Sun, what are you saying? We're the ones who hitched a ride with you. No matter how you look at it, we're the ones taking advantage of you. If anyone should feel bad, it should be us." Tian Jingjing said with a hearty smile.
"Hahaha, Xiao Tian's mouth is as sweet as honey, he really knows how to talk. Xiao Ji, you should learn from Xiao Tian in this respect." President Sun was amused and laughed heartily, his wrinkles becoming more and more obvious.
Ji Lun could only nod silently and reply, "Mr. Sun is right."
"Xiaotian, I have a bit of a headache today and want to take a nap, so I won't chat with you guys. Call me when you get home."
After Mr. Sun finished speaking, he leaned back in the car and slowly closed his eyes.
"Okay, you can sleep peacefully," Tian Jingjing replied with a smile.
The car sped along the elevated highway, passing several curves. As they rounded the first curve, due to inertia, Mr. Sun's entire body involuntarily leaned towards Tian Jingjing.
He seemed to lose his balance and, in his panic, reached out to grab something to steady himself, but ended up grabbing Tian Jingjing's slender waist with both hands.
Tian Jingjing was stunned and almost screamed. She glanced at the greasy man next to her and felt a wave of disgust.
She wanted to push him away, but then she remembered that this man not only owned a BMW, but also a house. She also thought about how she was still living in that small, dilapidated house with Ji Lun. Her eyes darted around, and she forced herself to keep quiet.
Mr. Sun seemed to have just woken up. He opened his eyes slightly and realized that he was leaning against Tian Jingjing. An embarrassed expression immediately appeared on his face.
