After Divorce: Pursued by Cohabiting Boss

Chapter 64

Li Zhen didn't listen to anything more the other two said. She went upstairs to look at the bedroom.

She was surprised to find that almost all the items in the bedroom were intact. The toiletries in the bathroom were brands she usually used, and the pajamas and clothes in the walk-in closet were similar to styles she usually wore, just much higher quality fabrics.

Fei Zhao followed her upstairs, "Miss Li, do you see anything else that's missing?"

"Assistant Fei, I'm very curious, about how much is your annual salary?" Li Zhen felt Fei Zhao was scarily omnipotent.

In such a short time he had arranged everything so properly here.

Fei Zhao raised his eyebrows, "Why don't you guess?"

"If you ask me, a personal assistant as versatile as you, Mr. Lu should be paying you half his salary." Li Zhen deliberately overstated.

Fei Zhao thought for a moment, "About that much."

Half of young master's annual salary at Macro Ocean, was about his monthly salary.

Li Zhen was shocked, it was actually true!

Lu Yanming was so wasteful, why hire such an expensive assistant.

Fei Zhao of course didn't know, the person in front of him was already thinking about how to persuade Lu Yanming to abandon him.

The two went back downstairs, Fei Zhao was getting ready to leave, Li Zhen called out to the expensively employed assistant, "Assistant Fei, won't you stay for dinner?"

"No need, no need." Fei Zhao hurriedly slipped away.

Don't joke, eat the young master's cooking?

It would cut years off his life!

After Fei Zhao left, Li Zhen sat on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Her gaze involuntarily looked towards the kitchen.

The kitchen here was completely open, Li Zhen sitting on the sofa could see every move Lu Yanming made.

No matter what he did, it was an unhurried and pleasing sight.

Extremely pleasing to the eyes.

Li Zhen walked closer to the kitchen, leaning against the fridge she asked, "Mr. Lu, you're so outstanding, how did you get forced into an arranged marriage? You're not young anymore either, you really should be sincerely dating a girlfriend."

"Why do you think the ugly duckling didn't date the beautiful swan?" Lu Yanming glanced at her askance.

Lu Yanming's obtuse sentence made Li Zhen blank for a moment, "I don't know."

Lu Yanming chuckled lightly, "Because it didn't want to?"

Li Zhen understood his implication, raising an eyebrow.

Lu Yanming's words had a lot of meaning!

He had actually compared himself to an ugly duckling in love relationships, and the other party to a beautiful swan.

Li Zhen found it very hard to imagine what kind of person could be a beautiful swan in his eyes.

And most importantly, from his tone...

"Mr. Lu, do you have someone you love who you can't be with?"

The oven dinged, Lu Yanming opened it, put on oven mitts, and took out the roast chicken inside, saying lightly, "Why don't you guess?"

Li Zhen twisted her lips, both Fei Zhao and Lu Yanming had her guessing today.

Lu Yanming set the roast chicken on the table, the aroma instantly permeating.

After today's ordeal with Xiao Tai, Li Zhen was already starving, at this time her mind emptied of other thoughts, reaching out a hand wanting to tear off a chicken leg.

Her hand had just reached out when "slap", Lu Yanming not too lightly slapped the back of her hand, "Wait."

Li Zhen drew back her hand.

Lu Yanming looked up at her, "Explain what you meant just now, saying I was old?"

Li Zhen was completely confused, "Did I say you were old?"

"Yes, you did." Lu Yanming stood up straight, just quietly gazing at her.

With an attitude that if she didn't explain clearly, he wouldn't let her eat.

"Maybe I spoke too quickly, misspoke." Li Zhen's eyes glanced at the roast chicken, slowly swallowing her saliva.

"I'm thirty this year, don't smoke or drink, healthy body, also don't stay up late often, should live to seventy or eighty no problem." As Lu Yanming spoke, he turned back to the kitchen, bringing out the remaining dishes to the table.

He shoved chopsticks into the drooling Li Zhen's hands, "I'm only four years older than you, I don't think I'm old at all."

"Not old, not old, Mr. Lu you seem so young to me!" Li Zhen very tactfully smiled as she took the chopsticks.

Was Lu Yanming that sensitive about his age?

She couldn't even remember what she had casually said, yet he had sincerely taken the time to explain.

Li Zhen mentally took note: this person is petty about his age, remember to never bring it up again.

After eating, Li Zhen showered and went to bed.

She could hear Lu Yanming brushing his teeth in the bathroom, and felt a little nervous inside.

Back at Sunshine Garden, they had occasionally slept in separate rooms. However big this house was, there was still only one bed, meaning the two would have to sleep together every day now.

It was getting more and more like they were really husband and wife! This momentum was not good.

She had to hurry up and get pregnant then leave.

Li Zhen placed the mini umbrella on the bedside table, then swept a glance at the bathroom.

No, that can't be right!

Were her eyes tricking her?

Looking again...

She sat straight up in the bed, expression changing tremendously, "The bathroom is semi-transparent?"

Lu Yanming's hard and streamlined silhouette could be vaguely made out through the fully frosted glass bathroom, she could even clearly see every area he washed and each movement.

You couldn't see clearly from inside to outside, yet outside could see clearly inside!

"Then just now when I was showering..." Li Zhen's face flushed red, her whole body about to be steamed.

The bathroom door opened, Lu Yanming stepped out, lower half wrapped in a towel, right hand holding a towel drying his wet hair, "What's wrong with you? Your face is so red, too hot?"

It wasn't too hot! She was too embarrassed!

"Mr. Lu, you weren't in the bedroom when I showered earlier right?" Li Zhen carefully sounded him out.

Lu Yanming picked up the hairdryer, "I was."

"Snap."

A line called shame broke.

"So my entire shower...you were able to..."

"I saw it." Lu Yanming matter-of-factly drying his clean and trimmed short hair.

"Mr. Lu how could you not avoid it?" Li Zhen angrily, her charming face even redder.

"Were you in the bedroom when I showered earlier?"

"I was..."

"Then how come you didn't avoid it?"

"I..."

With Lu Yanming's question, she seemed very unreasonable.

Li Zhen instantly deflated, lying down, huffily pulling the comforter completely over herself.

Lu Yanming chuckled lightly, kneeling by her bedside on one knee, and the corner of her tightly wrapped comforter was pulled open.

Her eyes peeked out, meeting Lu Yanming's warm, pale irises.

Lu Yanming: "My mistake, don't be angry."

"Oh." Li Zhen's heart very faithlessly softened in nearly an instant.

She actually wasn't angry at Lu Yanming, just felt awkward.

But the next second, her eyes abruptly widened.

Lu Yanming grabbed his towel, simply pulling it off.

Kneeling by her bedside on one knee, his body completely bare, "You look back fully, consider it my compensation."

Li Zhen: ...I feel you're taking advantage of me, but I have no evidence!

Li Zhen awkwardly curled her toes into the bedsheet, eyes darting away in a flash.

The corners of Lu Yanming's lips turned up slightly, picking up the mini umbrella from the bedside table, and sticking it into Li Zhen's hands under the covers.

"Since you've already taken it out prepared, then help me put it on."

Under his gaze, the blush on Li Zhen's face visibly spread, ears, collarbone, large swathes of alluring red.

His little Zhen was so cute, made him want to...
