The blind boss's nanny

She broke free from his embrace, hurriedly tumbling off the sofa. Her bare feet touched the cool carpet, and she nearly tripped.

"We should go downstairs for breakfast!"

She was incoherent, and her voice was distorted.

As if trying to shift all her attention to trivial matters, she hurriedly began tidying the sofa... forcefully slapping the cushions and pulling at the askew blanket, her movements stiff and exaggerated.

Her gaze fell on the two of them.

Lu Tingzhao's robe was mostly open, revealing a large expanse of his firm chest, while her own... the neckline of her loungewear was also askew, with a fresh red mark faintly visible on her collarbone.

"Clothes! Yes! We need to change! You're going to wear that gray shirt today, right? I'll go get it!"

Lin Xiaoman muttered to herself, her steps faltering as she rushed toward the wardrobe.

With her back to him, she frantically rummaged through the closet, muttering incoherent nonsense:

"The sofa cover probably needs washing... Haven't we fed Yuanbao yet...?"

Lu Tingzhao sat leisurely on the sofa, not intending to expose her clumsy and flustered "ostrich behavior".

Listening to her incoherent words and the chaotic sounds she made, the smile on his lips deepened.

When the hickey on Lin Xiaoman's collarbone finally disappeared, the day for Lu Tingzhao to attend the group's annual meeting arrived as scheduled.

Her style of dress today was completely different from last time. Perhaps to match the occasion, Lu Tingxi chose a bright red satin dress for her.

The flowing cut accentuates her exquisite figure, while the vibrant colors make her skin appear even whiter. Her usual fresh and clean demeanor is now radiant and charming.

Aunt Mei kept praising:

"Clothes really do make the man (or woman)! This color suits you so well, you look beautiful!"

Her gaze then fell on the V-neck design of the dress, her brows furrowing slightly as she lowered her voice to remind her...

"It's just that your chest... is showing a bit too much, so be careful not to expose yourself."

Lin Xiaoman obediently checked the firmly attached nipple covers again and nodded vigorously:

"Yes, Aunt Mei, don't worry, it's stuck on very firmly!"

Watching Aunt Mei walk away, Lin Xiaoman took a deep breath and took the arm of Lu Tingzhao, who was already waiting by her side.

Leng Feng's car was waiting outside.

Before leaving, she looked around and, seeing that no one was around, she quietly tiptoed to kiss the man's face.

However, before her lips could touch him, Lu Tingzhao's hand moved even faster, blocking her lips from his cheek.

"It will leave a lip print."

He reminded him in a low voice, his tone tinged with amusement.

Lin Xiaoman then suddenly remembered that she had worn brightly colored lipstick today.

She chuckled shyly twice, stepped back a little, and looked at him with bright eyes.

"Excuse me, but you look absolutely stunning, Chairman!"

Lu Tingzhao was also smiling. Ever since the night they became a couple, he had clearly sensed that she was trying to adapt to her new role as his "girlfriend."

She began to enjoy simple, lustless intimacy—like stealing a kiss on his cheek when he wasn't looking, or suddenly hugging his waist from behind, rubbing her face against his back like a koala.

However, whenever he tried to deepen their intimacy, she would involuntarily tremble and make some "requests" that left him both amused and exasperated:

"When we kiss... can we not use our tongues?"

"Um... could you please not touch me there? I... I'm a little flustered..."

"This feeling... is so strange. Can I calm down first?"

Each time, he had to use all his self-control to suppress the desire to completely meld her into his very bones.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoman looked at the man in the suit and tie in front of her with shining eyes.

The perfectly tailored black tuxedo accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist, making him stand tall and straight like a pine tree, with his bow tie perfectly in place.

He's incredibly handsome!

She screamed silently in her heart, feeling that Lu Tingzhao's looks were seriously off the charts today. Just thinking about this person, whom she could touch and kiss whenever she wanted...

Her lips couldn't help but curve upwards, and the little voice inside her head was spinning with joy.

Just then, Lu Tingzhao suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He tightened his grip on her wrist, gently pulling her closer, turning his face to the side with a solemn expression:

"Xiaoman, after the annual party..."

He paused, seemingly considering his words.

"...Will you come back here with me? Back to the manor?"

Lin Xiaoman was admiring his "stunning good looks" when she heard this, and without thinking, the answer came out:

"Of course!"

If she doesn't come back here, where else can she go? Her luggage, her job, her... well, her boyfriend, aren't they all here?

She blinked, looking at his still somewhat serious profile, and the doubt in her heart slowly grew.

Why would he suddenly ask such a strange question?

Lu Tingzhao wanted to say something more, but before he could speak, a familiar, cheerful "da da" sound came from afar.

It's a gold ingot.

A golden figure excitedly rushed towards them from the other end of the lawn.

Lin Xiaoman's eyes lit up, and she temporarily put the man's strange behavior aside, her mind starting to work.

She hooked her finger into the side pocket of Lu Tingzhao's suit, tilted her head back, and spoke with a hint of eagerness:

"Chairman...is it alright if we bring Yuanbao along this time?"

Before he could answer, as if afraid of rejection, she quickly added:

"After the company annual meeting, we can take it to that big new dog park that opened in the city! I heard there are lots of dogs there, Yuanbao will definitely love it!"

She imagined the scene: she and he, holding Yuanbao's hand, strolling like countless ordinary couples in the bustling amusement park. The grass, the dogs barking, and... him beside her.

Just thinking about it filled Lin Xiaoman's heart with joy, and a smile crept onto her lips.

As Lu Tingzhao listened to her light and expectant voice, the tension in his chest suddenly eased and turned into a warm current.

She didn't lie to him.

She truly intended to return to his side completely.

She is accepting him.

"it is good."

He spoke, his voice gentle.

He reached out and precisely ruffled the top of her head, then moved down, stroking her smooth shoulders, and finally took her hand in his.

Yuanbao excitedly ran ahead of the two. As soon as the car door was opened, it eagerly jumped onto the back seat, found a comfortable spot to lie down, stuck out its tongue, and looked expectantly at the two people outside the car with its bright black eyes.

In Lin Xiaoman's life, there are very few things she truly regrets. She is used to looking forward and treating past stumbles as paving stones.

However, every day after that, she would return countless times to that sunny afternoon, to that moment when the car door opened.

She was filled with remorse.

If time could turn back, she would rather have left Yuanbao at the manor that day, even if it was just to idly while away a day by the fireplace.

She would never make the decision to bring Yuanbao out again.
