“It won’t happen again!” Lu Wanwan immediately swore earnestly.
Hearing her thoughtless reply, his brow tightened.
He suddenly gripped her jaw, closed the distance between them, and said word by word, “Lu Wanwan, I’m serious. If you pull this on me again, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Perhaps he indeed found it hard to reject her, no matter how much he resisted inside.
But if he could be ruthless once, he could do it a second time.
“Really, it won’t happen again. Do you want me to swear?”
“Go ahead and swear,” he said dismissively.
“…” She was only speaking off the cuff.
“Let’s sleep,” Gu Annan released her chin.
She finally felt relieved and nodded.
Just as she was about to turn around, she suddenly remembered something and turned back, “Gu Annan, about tomorrow…”
The distance between them was already so close that as she turned her head, her mouth brushed against his face, ending up directly on his lips.
The soft contact made her heart skip a beat.
Gu Annan’s eyebrows lifted slightly as his dark gaze held hers. He took the opportunity to pry open her lips…
It was just a taste before he stopped himself quickly.
As he let go, he deliberately kept her lips a bit further from his, “If you want to sleep peacefully, don’t touch me.”
Lu Wanwan was full of grievance, he had come so close to her for no reason, yet he made it seem like she had some ulterior motive towards him.
Although her body ached, she slept extremely well.
She wasn’t sure if it was because her mood had relaxed, or because she kept crying out in pain in the bathroom last night, which ended things prematurely.
Also, after that, she really did sleep soundly and didn’t touch him…
When Lu Wanwan got out of bed, she saw that new clothes had been delivered to her room at some point, neatly laid out.
The dress from the day before was still in the bathroom, ruined beyond recognition, impossible to wear out in public.
A designer gown worth several hundred thousand turned into disposable clothing, not even worthy as a keepsake. Even though she hadn’t paid for it, she still felt the pinch.
After changing into the new clothes, she didn’t see Gu Annan, so she checked her phone and found a message from him.
Her eyes brightened, and she immediately opened it.
“Change into your clothes and come down for breakfast.”
They seldom texted each other, not to mention making phone calls.
Lu Wanwan could read and re-read that simple sentence several times.
She left her room and waited for the elevator. Stepping in, she was a bit stunned.
There was only one person in the elevator, standing tall to one side, leisurely taking off sunglasses, and with a quirk of petal-like thin lips, “Starting work early in the morning?”
“Not at all. I didn’t know when you’d be taking the elevator,” she rebutted nonchalantly, “It’s a coincidence.”
Now that their collaboration was confirmed, Lu Wanwan no longer felt any professional shame.
She didn’t want to sneak around taking sleazy paparazzi shots if she could take them openly and aboveboard.
Her ambition wasn’t to write scandals or be a paparazzo all her life.
Once her internship was over and she’d saved enough for her grandmother’s medical expenses, she wouldn’t continue working at this newspaper.
“Not shooting today?” He was curious.
Lu Wanwan replied breezily, “Not today, resting!”
“That’s fine, even if you shot today, it wouldn’t be exclusive,” he chuckled lowly, the curve of his lips deepening.
Lu Wanwan had yet to grasp the meaning of his words when the elevator doors opened, and a barrage of flashes and shutter sounds ensued.
“Mr. Bo, is it true that you’ve been spending time with Miss Tang Na lately?”
“Mr. Bo, are you attending the MK event because of Tang Na?”
