Seeing that the time was almost up, Lu Shiyan said goodbye to Father Wen at the right time: "Uncle, it's getting late, I should go back."
"Okay, okay, come again next time, come again next time." Father Wen replied with a hearty smile. He had a very good impression of Lu Shiyan. This young man was not only handsome, but also very well-mannered, making people feel very comfortable. Father Wen thought to himself that it would be great if his daughter could be with such a man.
Lu Shiyan smiled and nodded, indicating that he would definitely visit again. When he turned to leave, his eyes fell on Wen Ning involuntarily. She was standing quietly by the side, with a gentle smile on her face and an elusive look in her eyes. Lu Shiyan's heart moved, and he couldn't help but look at her a few more times. When Wen's father saw this action, he suddenly had an idea and wanted to bring them together. After all, he had seen his daughter looking absent-minded these past few days. As a father, didn't he know what she meant? So he cleared his throat, turned his head and said to Wen Ning beside him: "Ningning, send Shiyan off."
Wen Ning was sitting there bored, head down, fiddling with his fingers absentmindedly.
She suddenly heard her father's voice. Like a thunderclap, it shattered her reverie and made her look up in astonishment. She followed her father's gaze, but unexpectedly, it met someone else's.
Before Wen Ning could refuse, Lu Shiyan spoke up, "Then I'll trouble you, Miss Wen."
It was too late for Wen Ning to refuse, so she had no choice but to step forward and escort the man out. Dad was such a jerk! She hadn't even figured out how to confront him yet. Why did he just send her right in front of him? If she had dared to appear before him, she wouldn't have had to hide for five days. But now, there was no way to hide.
She was actually a little curious. Why did he suddenly come over tonight? Could he really just come over to eat and chat about business with his father? She wouldn't believe it.
The two of them walked out along the path in the yard in silence. He didn't say anything, and Wen Ning pretended to walk as if nothing had happened. In fact, she was very panicked. What if he suddenly said something? How would she be able to handle it? She didn't want to hear him say something she didn't like. If that was the case, she would rather not have met him.
Seeing that they had reached the door, Lu Shiyan didn't say a word. Wen Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief and planned to send him back home.
"Then I..."
"Are you going to stay silent?" Wen Ning was about to say goodbye when Lu Shiyan interrupted her. For a moment, Wen Ning could only swallow her words awkwardly. Then, she said rather uncomfortably, "Well, what do you want to hear?"
Wen Ning planned to play dumb. Anyway, as long as he didn't point it out, she would just pretend she didn't know.
"Tell me, what do I want to hear?" Lu Shiyan said in a very seductive tone. When Wen Ning heard his voice, she almost blurted out the answer. Fortunately, she had good self-control and was not led astray by him.
"How do I know what you want to hear?"
Seeing her evasive look, Lu Shiyan curled up the corners of his mouth knowingly, but did not let go of the topic.
"You haven't come to work for five days." Lu Shiyan suddenly spoke.
Wen Ning had expected him to say something, but he actually said this? Her heart, beating erratically, was instantly brought back to its senses.
"Is that what you wanted to say?" Wen Ning asked in surprise. She regretted it immediately, so much so that she wanted to slap herself. How could she be so stupid? They'd already given her a way out, so why were they pulling back? It was so embarrassing.
"Well, you seem very disappointed? Then what do you want to hear me say?" he asked with a smile in the corner of his eyes.
"No, that's all I am. I just had some unexpected events." Wen Ning swallowed and continued, "I didn't feel well this week, so I rested at home."
"When are you going to work?" Lu Shiyan didn't know whether he believed it or not. In any case, he didn't hold on to the question, but asked another question.
"Ah, I haven't thought about it yet." Wen Ning was a little unsure of how to respond. She had been avoiding him to begin with, but now that he was confronting her, she didn't know what to do. Normally, she wouldn't be so embarrassed. She had confessed her feelings to him in person, but he ignored her. It was so annoying. She was the eldest Miss Wen, and when had she ever been treated like this? It really pissed her off.
"Haven't you decided yet? How about Monday? Although you are not an employee of Lu Group, you are still working at Lu Group now and should abide by Lu Group's rules and regulations. Otherwise, how can I convince you with reason? You can either not come to work or work well. How about you go to work normally on Monday?" Lu Shiyan said this deliberately.
"Oh, then I'll go on Monday." Wen Ning didn't have to hide from people. Since the person had asked her personally, she simply went down the stairs. After all, she had no intention of giving up on him yet.
"Well, if I don't see you on Monday, I will come to your house and arrest you myself, okay?" Lu Shiyan raised his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, looking at the other person with a smile, a subtle threat flashing in his eyes, but more of it was teasing and doting.
Hearing this, Wen Ning couldn't help but chuckle. A playful look crossed her eyes, as if challenging Lu Shiyan's patience. She nodded slightly in agreement, a brilliant smile playing on her lips. It was as warm and bright as the spring sun, captivating.
"Well, go back and rest early." Seeing that she agreed, Lu Shiyan let her go back and rest.
"Where's your car?" Wen Ning looked around but didn't see any car.
"I'll be there soon." Lu Shiyan replied.
"Otherwise, I'll take you home. I'm a pretty good driver," Wen Ning said with amusement. She was a fantastic driver. Furthermore, she felt that her relationship with him had become even closer because of that unbroken layer of paper.
"You'll take me back? And then I'll take you back?" Lu Shiyan said with a smile.
"That's not necessary. I know the way." Wen Ning said with his head slightly lowered.
"Forget it, I have a car, so I don't need you to send me. If you send me, I will have to worry about you driving back alone."
"There's nothing to worry about. I'm very familiar with this road." Wen Ning said proudly.
"My car is here, go back quickly."
"Oh." Wen Ning reluctantly turned back when she saw the car finally arrived. Lu Shiyan stared at her back until she reached the door, then he slowly withdrew his gaze. Then he got in the car and left.
