Let's go eat.

WeChat was sent by Huo Mingzheng.

Fu Yan clutched her phone, but before she could reply, Huo Mingzheng's call came in.

Xia Xia saw her face turn tense at once, and she looked curiously.

Fu Yan took her phone and left the office. She only answered it when she got to the tea room.

"Hello."

The man's ever-cool voice, transmitted through the radio, held a touch of unexpected warmth and low tenderness. "I'm at Lanfang near your company."

Lanfang is a local characteristic restaurant in Nanshan, with relatively high consumption.

"I ate with my colleagues."

Want to order takeout

She hummed in response.

Ho Mingzheng said lightly, "I'll pick you up"

The intention behind this statement is too obvious. If Huo Mingzheng really came to the company to pick her up, tomorrow's news would probably explode.

Fu Yan had no choice but to agree, "I'll be there right away."

Since her mother's matter has just been resolved, she can't burn bridges and upset him.

Back in the office, she told Xiaoxu that she was going out for a bit and took her bag and left.

When she reached the lobby on the first floor, she realized she had left her coat behind. Going back upstairs seemed like too much trouble, so she gritted her teeth and walked out. Although it was a sunny day, there was a biting wind.

Fortunately, Lanfang and the company were only separated by one street in a bustling commercial district.

Cao Fang waited for her on the first floor of Lanfang and took her to a private room on the third floor.

Stepping into the warm room, she couldn't help but sneeze. As soon as she looked up, she met Huo Mingzheng's slightly impatient gaze.

Come here.

Fu Yan walked to the sofa and sat beside Huo Mingzheng. The table in front of them was already set with dishes, all her favorites.

She was a little surprised, not expecting him to compromise for her.

However, Huo Mingzheng has a good memory. He generally remembers what she likes to eat. Before, when they went out for meals, he would order some of her favorites, but he wasn't as indulgent as he is now, ordering everything she liked.

Suddenly, a warm and dry hand enveloped her icy one. She jolted, Huo Mingzheng's voice cold and stern: "Where's your coat"

"At the office, I forgot something when going downstairs and wasn't bothered to go back up."

The man snorted coldly: “You lazy bum.”

He still kept his hand wrapped around hers until it was slightly warmer, then he let go and said, "Eat."

Strangely, she felt like she didn't have much of an appetite recently, but after waking up hungry in the middle of the night, her appetite today was much better than before. Perhaps it's because today's dishes were more to her taste.

"Have some meat." Huo Mingzheng put a piece of steamed mandarin fish into her bowl.

Fu Yan's hand holding the chopsticks froze.

She couldn't remember where she came from. After being satisfied, men were more likely to meet the demands of women than usual.

Last night, she took the initiative to "throw herself into his arms." Huo Mingzheng repeatedly demanded satisfaction, and of course, he got it.

only made these unusual actions today.

Where are you staying tonight

Fu Yan pointed at the rice, "I'm going back to my place."

He held her hand down, preventing her from poking at the rice. He let out a hum in response.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she looked at him sharply. "Are you going"
