Zhou Shuang tried to shake Lu Yinan’s hand away, but she didn’t succeed. She gave up after a few futile attempts.
She dragged her feet after him.
“What do you want to drink?” Lu Yinan dragged Zhou Shuang to his swivel chair and pushed her down.
Before she could answer, he said, “Water is better. It’s not good to drink coffee or tea at night.”
He turned around and walked towards the water dispenser.
The white robes elongated his lean frame, and he seemed even more dashing and suave.
Zhou Shuang stared at him that she couldn’t utter a word.
Jiaojiao inched towards her. “Daddy is so biased. He didn’t ask me.”
Zhou Shuang frowned at the sight of the little cheeky expression. She prodded her head and chided softly, “You little imp.”
Her brain was full of tricks.
“Did Jiaojiao badmouthed me?” Lu Yinan turned around with a cup of water. He caught a glimpse of Jiaojiao’s grin and he smiled.
Jiaojiao shook her head. “I didn’t! I told Mommy good things about you.”
Lu Yinan gave her a satisfied smile and kissed her cheek. “Truly my good daughter.”
Jiaojiao grinned brightly. “Daddy, Mommy. You can talk to each other. I want to play games.”
She waved her hands at them and picked up Lu Yinan’s phone on his desk. She eagerly walked to the couch.
Zhou Shuang watched her and said, “Jiaojiao, you can’t use the phone. You’ll spoil your eyes.”
Jiaojiao replied, “For a while.”
“Hey, you—”
Zhou Shuang was about to go to Jiaojiao when Lu Yinan interjected. “Shuang.”
Zhou Shuang was stunned.
This was the first time he had called her with this affectionate term.
No. This was the first time he sounded so solemn and serious. He didn’t tease nor mock her.
Instinctively, she glanced at Lu Yinan.
Lu Yinan was peering at her at the same time. He mumbled, “Your parents will be here next month. Let’s go hiking. Didn’t you say you want to go?”
A brief smile flitted across Zhou Shuang’s face. “I’m starting work once Jiaojiao is discharged. I won’t have time.”
“Work?” Lu Yinan frowned and pressed on. “Where? What kind of job?”
Where was her workplace? Why was he completely unaware?
Zhou Shuang nodded and casually replied, “Yeah, I found a job.”
This woman really found a job. Lu Yinan’s frown turned deeper. “What job?”
She kept this from him and didn’t seem to have the intention of informing him.
How long has this hooligan been planning all these? She even found a job.
Lu Yinan was dejected and frustrated.
Zhou Shuang replied, “I will be working at Su Yan’s work studio.”
Lu Yinan blurted out without thinking. “F*ck! His work studio is still surviving?”
Excuse me… his company was a well-known one, and he had opened studios all over the world.
How could it go bust?
Without waiting for Zhou Shuang to answer, he asked, “Is his studio a shelter for women who fell out with their men?”
When Wen Xuxu wanted a divorce with Yan Rusheng, she had escaped to his work studio, too.
So did Su Yan open his work studio to protect women and deal with the men?
Zhou Shuang ignored Lu Yinan and calmly replied, “I’ve found an apartment too. After Jiaojiao is discharged, I’ll move out.”
