Rong Yan came out of the bathroom and happened to chance upon the sight of Luo Anning seated on the couch. He gazed at her for a while before looking away.
He walked towards the full-length mirror and began putting on his tie while Luo Anning wrapped her arms around him from behind, causing his body to stiffen.
Luo Anning hugged his waist and buried her face in his broad shoulders and said bitterly, “Rong Yan, don’t be angry, alright?”
“Do you even care about whether I’m angry or not?” Rong Yan moved her hands away and continued to tie his tie.
Luo Anning looked at her hands and got a little distracted, after which she immediately smiled and walked in front of him to help him tie his tie.
“If I don’t care, I wouldn’t have waited for you here,” she said while helping him put on his tie. She then adjusted his shirt.
Rong Yan humphed and said with a mellower expression, “I need an explanation.”
Luo Anning looked up at Rong Yan and remained silent. Rong Yan glanced at her and sneered, “If you don’t want to explain, why do you bother sucking up to me? What does my anger have to do with you? Luo Anning, don’t you forget that you’re now my wife!”
Is it overboard to ask my wife for a suitable explanation?
Is it too much to ask for?
Or do I mean nothing to her at all? Is that why she doesn’t feel the need to even explain to me?
Regardless of the reason, Rong Yan would definitely be infuriated!
He felt like she was trampling all over him.
Seeing that he had turned around and was about to leave, Luo Anning frantically held onto his hand. However, Rong Yan stared at her coldly and said, “Let go.”
Luo Anning shook her head and said, “No.”
It would be harder to explain things if she were to let them be.
She did not wish to argue with him because she did not want them to be at odds against each other again, right after they started getting closer to each other.
“Luo Anning, you don’t have to intentionally suck up to me. Everything that we talked about yesterday still counts.” Rong Yan pushed her away again and left.
Dumbfounded, Luo Anning thought to herself, so he thinks that I was being nice to him for the sake of interests and benefits?
Does he think I’m afraid of being deprived of his money if I provoke him?
So that’s what he thinks…
Rong Yan headed straight to the office without having breakfast. After having breakfast alone, Luo Anning got inside the bodyguard’s car and headed to the office.
…
As soon as Luo Anning arrived at the office, she could acutely sense the peculiar gazes that everyone was casting on her.
Before she could even dwell on it, Xu Zhiyuan hurried downstairs and looked at her like she was his saving grace. “Young Madam, you’re finally here.”
Extremely dumbfounded, Luo Anning asked, “What’s the matter? What happened?”
Xu Zhiyuan pushed his gold-framed glasses up his nose bridge and muttered hesitantly, “Well… Young Master Rong arrived at the office tower to see that someone had decorated the entrance… he’s throwing a fit in the office now. Hurry and go persuade him to simmer down.”
“Isn’t the entrance alright? Since when did anyone decorate it? Besides, why do I have to go and persuade him when he’s angry? I’m not going to be his punching bag and allow him to vent his anger on me. You may go if you want to.” Luo Anning rolled her eyes at Xu Zhiyuan, not wanting to do that same thing again.
She did not manage to curry his favor at the hotel today and hence, she did not want to embarrass herself further.
Xu Zhiyuan was almost panicking because the entrance was covered by flowers and messages of confession. That was the reason Rong Yan alighted from the car and ordered his people to destroy all the roses and discard them.
