Chapter 30: The unavoidable heartbeat

2072 Words
Su Jian'an obediently extended half of her small tongue, with the tip of her tongue burning red and faint signs of peeling, causing her to inhale in pain. Lu Boyan frowned and went to get the medicine box. When he returned, Su Jian'an only heard a "sizzle" sound, and a mist with a mint fragrance sprayed onto her tongue, suppressing the burning pain. She felt much better. "Thank you." Due to a tongue injury, Su Jian'an's accent became somewhat comical, but her voice was even softer than before. Listening to her, it felt like a soft little hand scratching her heart. Perhaps due to pain, her sparkling peach blossom eyes were misted with a layer of water vapor at some point, with an indescribable expression of pain, extremely pitiful. Lu Boyan's voice was mixed with a hint of helplessness: "Su Jian'an, how could you be so foolish?" "Did you just realize it now?" Su Jian'an snorted twice and said somewhat smugly, "We're already married, we can't regret it in time." Lu Boyan put the peppermint spray on her hand and said, "It hurts me to spray it on the wound." "Oh." Su Jian'an looked at the pot of Congee regretfully, "I can't eat it, don't waste it..." Lu Boyan hooked his lips and said, "Mrs. Lu cooked it specially. Of course, I won't waste it." In the darkness, his narrow and long eyes became even more profound and difficult to understand, as if nothing could escape his sharp eyes. Su Jian'an immediately felt guilty and said, "Stop being narcissistic! I wouldn't deliberately endure it for you!" The speaker had already fled upstairs. What is she hungry? It's just an excuse, she just doesn't want Lu Boyan to be hungry. But how did he see it? Lu Boyan looked at Su Jian'an's back and smiled. He took his laptop and slowly drank Congee while looking at the document. When the document saw the last page and the Congee in the porcelain bowl bottomed out, the pain in his stomach disappeared. I just received a few hours of intravenous drip, but my stomach pain still hasn't eased. It seems that marrying a fool back home is not a bad thing either. Lu Boyan had to pass through Su Jian'an's bedroom before entering and exiting the room. His footsteps habitually paused in front of her door, holding the doorknob in his hand. With a twist, he sure enough did not lock the door. She curled up on the huge bed like a small animal, holding a slender and long furry bear pillow in her arms. Half of her face was resting on the pillow, while the other half was bathed in dim light, peaceful and breathtaking. Her sleeping habit was just too much to praise, and soon she kicked the blanket in disarray. Her slender legs lay heavily on the blanket, and her smooth skin was illuminated by the warm yellow light, making it even more tempting. Lu Boyan walked over and skillfully covered her blanket. The sleeping little monster was more obedient, obediently shrinking into the blanket and slightly pursing its pink lips If he stayed any longer, Lu Boyan couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't do anything. He leaned down and kissed Su Jian'an's lips, then left her room as if he had never been before. Just like in the past busy half month, I could only come back late at night to see her and then hurriedly leave. This night was particularly brief, at least as Su Jian'an felt it. As soon as the alarm clock rang, she quickly got up as usual. The difference was that she used to set the time at 7:30, but today it's six o'clock. I only slept for a total of 5 hours, which was definitely not enough for Su Jian'an, but she quickly washed up and went downstairs. Xu Bo and the servants were already busy. Seeing Su Jian'an come downstairs so early, Xu Bo asked in confusion, "Madam, what's wrong?" "Has the kitchen started preparing breakfast yet?" "The chef just entered the kitchen," Xu Bo said. "Young lady, are you hungry? Then I'll make them move faster." "No," Su Jian'an rolled up her sleeves and thought for a moment before saying, "I burned my tongue while eating yesterday and couldn't eat anything, so I want to make breakfast myself." Xu Bo nodded and called for the chef to come out, handing over the kitchen to Su Jian'an. Su Jian'an still cooked porridge. He boiled the white porridge in the casserole until it was bright and thin. The Century egg and lean meat were all cut to pieces. After boiling in the next pot, he turned off the heat, and then added salt to taste. At this time, the kitchen was full of Congee. At 7:30, Lu Boyan came down from upstairs and rarely saw Su Jian'an wake up earlier than him. He walked straight to her and said, "How's your tongue?" "It's okay." "Stretch it out for me to see." It was the first time that Xu Bo and the servants saw Lu Boyan and Su Jian'an so close. They both looked at them with strange and excited expressions. Su Jian'an was embarrassed and said, "It's really ok. That... there's Congee with preserved eggs and lean meat. It's better for you to drink this if you feel uncomfortable." She was about to leave to serve Congee. Lu Boyan held her back and said, "Are you obedient, or do you want me to take coercive measures?" Su Jian'an was stunned for a moment and timidly asked, "What, what kind of coercive measures?" Lu Boyan hooked his lips and slightly possessed himself. His cheek pressed against Su Jian'an's ear, then turned his head and a soft, warm, and ambiguous breath sprayed into her ear one by one: "Have you ever kissed?" Su Jian'an quickly realized and became completely incoherent, saying, "You, you... I... I'm really okay now! If you don't believe me, look..." She obediently extended her tongue. Lu Boyan looked at it and furrowed his brow slightly. "Still can't eat anything?" "I can eat it in a different way." Su Jian'an turned around and ran away, unsure of what to look for. Xu Bo and the servants pursed their lips and smiled, feeling motivated to work - in their eyes, Su Jian'an and Lu Boyan were no longer like when they just got married, and now they at least saw something called "emotion" between them. As for how intimate their interaction was just now... it goes without saying. Lu Boyan sat down and read half of the financial report. Su Jian'an came back with a disposable paper Congee cup with a lid and a straw. She filled a bowl of Congee for him and said, "Can you help me try it?" He tasted it with rare cooperation and said, "It's just right." Su Jian'an happily filled a bowl of Congee into the cup, inserted a straw and said, "I hurry to work and go first." Lu Boyan didn't stop her until her car drove away and Xu Boyan came to Lu Boyan: "This morning's Congee was cooked by the young lady herself." "I know." After tasting a sip of Lu Boyan, I knew that it was the flavor cooked by Su Jian'an, which was completely different from what the chef cooked. Xu Bo smiled and said, "Young master, let me ask a little more. Has the matter... been handled? If it takes a little longer, how can I explain to the young lady when she asks what you are busy with?" Lu Boyan closed the newspaper and said, "She doesn't know how to ask these questions." He can't help but understand Su Jian'an. Currently, the only thing that interests her is probably the gossip between him and Han Ruoxi. Xu Bo thought for a moment and said, "During this time, Madam Shao has indeed not asked..." As expected, Lu Boyan smiled and said, "The matter has been dealt with. The things at home should be checked regularly and not discovered by her." "Don't worry, I will handle the family matters properly," Xu Bo assured with a serious expression. When Xu Bo was young, Lu Boyan was the clearest about his role. Of course, he trusted Xu Bo to handle things. Before leaving the company, he told Xu Bo another thing before leaving. On the other side, Su Jian'an has already arrived at the police station. She drank the Congee she brought with her on the way, and felt no spirit. She stopped the car and went to the coffee shop at the intersection to buy a cup of coffee before entering the office. "Tsk tsk, Jian An, it's rare to see you have panda eyes," said a female colleague named Xiaoying, blinking vaguely at Su Jian An and lowering her voice. "Tell the CEO of your company, Mr. Lu, that it's too harmful to your health." Su Jian'an's face turned red and she didn't know what to say for a moment. Usually in the office, Su Jian'an is known for being calm and quick to react, but today she couldn't say a word. Xiaoying laughed heartily, as if five million had fallen from the sky. Su Jian'an silently carried her coffee and went to look at the information. At first glance, it was noon when Xiaoying came to the cafeteria to have dinner with Su Jian'an and Jiang Shaokai. Su Jian'an was worried when she thought of her own tongue. Just then, a commotion broke out in the outer office, and Xiao Ying exclaimed, "This is the legendary... British butler?" "What's wrong?" Su Jian'an looked out and was also stunned—— Xu Bo didn't know when he arrived. He was wearing a well made three piece suit, leaning on an exquisite and low-key wooden cane, and wearing a black gentleman's hat on his head. Although his face was already old, his eyes were not as cloudy as those of an ordinary old man. Instead, his eyes were very bright, and his every move resembled that of an old gentleman in an English drama. Behind him was a servant wearing a light blue uniform at home. "Madam Shao." Xu Bo walked into the office of the forensic team, smiled, took off his hat and held it in his hand, giving a glance to the servant behind him. The servant understood and took out the things he brought one by one and placed them on Su Jian'an's table. Su Jian'an's face was full of doubt. "As instructed by the young master," said Xu Bo, "isn't your tongue injured? The young master specifically instructed the kitchen at home to prepare lunch for you, and asked me to bring it to you." Su Jian'an was stunned for a moment, her heart seemed to be swept away with a layer of honey. She smiled and said, "Thank you." "This is all I should do." Xu Bo said goodbye with a smile and left with the servant. Su Jian'an looked at the things she brought and found that they were all absorbable. The pork rib soup had a rich aroma, and all the bones had been removed. The finely cut meat had been stewed very well, and it melted upon entry. It was evident that the kitchen had put in a lot of effort. "Tsk tsk tsk! That's great!" Xiao Ying sighed, "Alright, Jian An already has a hearty lunch. Young Master Jiang, please follow us to the cafeteria." Before stepping out of the office, Jiang Shaokai turned around and said, "You said that sometimes Lu Boyan just acted on the spot to make your father believe that you are very affectionate?" He shook his head with a mysterious smile and said, "Jian An, it's really not like that. Even if it's me, a master of picking girls, deceiving girls, I may not be able to take care of them so thoughtfully." "What do you want to say?" Su Jian'an asked. "You know what I'm trying to say," Jiang Shaokai smiled. "It's better for you to figure out his feelings for you earlier. Or... do you also want to move on to another relationship?" Su Jian'an was clearly stunned. Jiang Shaokai suddenly understood - Su Jian'an was tempted by Lu Boyan. Even if she had someone she had liked for many years, she couldn't help but be tempted by Lu Boyan.
