Lu Zhaoyang had difficulty swallowing her food, not because of the taste or the eighty-percent rule, but because of the complaints she heard from all around her.
“Why is the cafeteria serving food like this now?!”
“Exactly! Which crazy higher-up gave the order to cook plain dishes? Who exactly fell sick?”
Lu Zhaoyang ate even slower now. Lin Yazhi noticed her lack of appetite and frowned. “You don’t like the food too, right, Sister Zhaoyang?”
“Cough…”
In fact, she found it to suit her taste, but the commotion around her made her feel guilty.
“I’ll talk to the president later.”
Even if she could now enjoy mild dishes at work, what about the other staff members?
Not everyone was having a bad stomach. This change in policy would surely lead to disgruntled employees.
After lunch, Lu Zhaoyang went straight to Huo Yunting’s office.
However, the man in question was not there. Perhaps he was enjoying a proper lunch outside.
Lu Zhaoyang sat on the sofa inside and played on her phone.
After what happened last night and half a day’s work, she was tired. She played on her phone and rubbed her sore lower back.
Where was Huo Yunting?
Could he be at the Golden City?
That was his way of life anyway.
He must be lying about abstaining when she was gone, right?
Yes, he must be!
At that moment, Huo Yunting had just arrived back at the office and finished up a call when he sneezed abruptly.
He rubbed his nose, opened the door to his office, and was greeted by a pair of clear eyes watching him quietly.
Her cheeks were a little blushed and her lips were parted slightly. She was bending forward slightly. Was this an attempt at seduction?
It seemed that she had been waiting for quite awhile.
“My dear wife, are you thinking of something kinky already?” Huo Yunting pocketed his phone and locked the doors behind him.
“Can you be more careful of how you address me in the office?”
Lu Zhaoyang rolled her eyes and sat up straight, determined to keep Huo Yunting’s mind in the right direction.
However, her longing eyes that he saw earlier had already aroused him.
He sat down and put a hand on her back. He rested his chin on her shoulder and whispered quietly, “My dear wife…”
His breath tickled Lu Zhaoyang in the ear and made her shudder.
Huo Yunting sat closer and his still hand began working on taking off her scarf.
Lu Zhaoyang’s lips thinned. “Stop it. I’m here on official business.”
“Me too.” Huo Yunting pulled away her scarf and tossed it on the sofa.
Lu Zhaoyang got frustrated and elbowed him lightly. “Not this kind of business!”
Huo Yunting studied her. He noticed the faint love marks that he left on her neck and felt pleased and more merciful. “Alright, what is it?”
Lu Zhaoyang could feel him closing in on her neck. She turned her head reluctantly and let his lips land on her neck.
She inhaled softly and said, “The new menu in the cafeteria—was it your idea?”
“Oh, are you here to thank me? You’re very welcome.”
As expected, it was him!
“Huo Yunting, let me remind you that there are other employees in this office. You should consider their needs too and revert to the old menu.”
Lu Zhaoyang wondered if the man sitting too close beside her was listening to any of this!
