I married my best friend's dad in a whirlwind romance, only to find out he'd secretly love

Qiao An'an wanted to refuse, but remembering that she had promised to stay for three months, she nodded and said, "Thank you!"

Lu Yanzhi glanced at her, a smile appearing in his eyes.

Eat slowly.

The man's features softened considerably.

Looking at his languid demeanor, Qiao An'an's unease subsided, replaced by a fluttering feeling.

She lowered her head and ate in small bites.

Lu Yanzhi watched her eat, his eyes filled with doting affection.

Qiao An'an was satisfied with her meal. "I'm done eating."

"Let's go."

Lu Yanzhi picked up his coat, took her hand, and walked towards the door.

Qiao An'an looked at him holding her hand; he seemed to really enjoy holding her hand.

As I stepped out of the villa, the car was already waiting.

As soon as they saw them get out of the car, the people inside immediately got out and opened the back door. "Mr. Lu, Ms. Qiao."

Qiao An'an had met this person before; she knew he was Lu Yanzhi's special assistant, Assistant Zhao.

She simply smiled and nodded in greeting.

Zhao Dong was shocked. He knew Qiao An'an; she was the young lady's best friend.

Unexpectedly, her aloof boss actually skipped the morning meeting and called her to pick her up so she could go to work.

She was shocked, but remained calm on the surface, only glancing at Qiao An'an a few more times.

Seeing her clear eyes and somewhat nervous demeanor, she didn't seem like the type to resort to scheming or manipulative tactics.

"Take An'an to the company."

"Yes."

The car was very smooth and the interior was very quiet.

Qiao An'an's gaze was fixed on the window, and she dared not look at the man beside her.

She could feel the oppressive aura emanating from the man, as well as the faint scent of pineapple, and her heart was racing.

Lu Yanzhi simply stared at her profile, admiring her gentle and obedient demeanor.

After a while.

The car stopped.

"Mr. Lu, we've arrived at Ms. Qiao's workplace."

Zhao Dong spoke up to remind him.

Qiao An'an realized what was happening and quickly opened the car door. "Uncle Lu, thank you for driving me to work!"

After saying that, she smiled at Zhao Dong, who was driving, and said, "Assistant Zhao, thank you."

Then, she turned and jogged towards the company, her back view looking flustered and adorable.

Lu Yanzhi watched her figure disappear into the company, then pondered for a few seconds.

Zhao Dong dared not speak, waiting for the boss to give instructions.

After a while, Lu Yanzhi regained his usual coldness. "Acquire Anfan Company. I need to see the report by tomorrow at work."

What?

Zhao Dong's hand trembled, he swallowed hard, and looked shocked.

Is the boss going to acquire Anfan for Miss Qiao An'an's sake?

Zhao Dong didn't dare to ask, nor did he have the guts to.

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away."

What Qiao An'an didn't know after getting off the bus was that on her first day of internship, her company was acquired.

Her major was design. When she reported to her supervisor, he only glanced at her documents and then told her to go to her workstation.

"You can sit anywhere outside where there are no seats. There are documents on the table. Your task today is to learn about the company."

After giving his instructions, the supervisor lowered his head and went about his own business.

Qiao An'an was left without anyone to help her and felt somewhat helpless.

She walked out of the office and looked around the huge office area. Everyone was sitting in their seats, busy with their own things.

He had no curiosity whatsoever about this intern who had arrived so suddenly.

This environment made Qiao An'an feel much more at ease.

She found a spot where no one wanted to sit down and looked at the employee handbook on the table.

After reading the employee handbook, she picked up her previous design examples and looked at them, becoming more and more amazed.

Around noon, the supervisor suddenly came out of his office.

"Everyone, stop for a moment."

"I have two things to tell you today."

She looked at Qiao An'an as she spoke.

"First, welcome to our new colleague, Qiao An'an."

After he finished speaking, the supervisor led the applause.

Applause erupted instantly, and everyone looked at Qiao An'an, which made her instantly nervous and her face turn red.

"Su Yingwei, you take her with you."

The girl whose name was called immediately replied, "Okay."

Qiao An'an looked over and saw the girl sitting next to her.

The supervisor stopped wasting time and said, "The second thing is that we need to participate in a project that we must win, but we have to compete with two other departments."

This is a test. Winning the project will bring huge bonuses for everyone, and I need everyone's concerted effort.

The words fell.

It instantly caused an uproar.

"Even if it's not for the bonus, we still have to compete with the first and second divisions. They always look down on us."

"That's right, this time we're working together."

Everyone was excited.

Qiao An'an stood to the side, her enthusiasm for this positive energy inspiring her.

The supervisor raised his hand. "Everyone, get back to work."

"Qiao An'an, come here."

After the supervisor finished speaking, he turned and left.

Qiao An'an quickly followed and entered the office. Seeing her supervisor busy at work, she whispered, "Supervisor Xu, is there something you need me for?"

Xu Nian glanced at her. "Sit down and wait for me a moment."

After a while, Xu Nian looked at Qiao An'an and handed her the documents.

"This is your company account. Change the password yourself," Xu Nian said authoritatively.

"Thanks."

"If you perform well during your internship, you can be promoted to a full-time position ahead of schedule." Deputy Director Xu Nian said in a businesslike manner. "The assessment is in half a month. Prepare well, and if you have any questions, ask Su Anwei."

"Okay." Qiao An'an said seriously.

"Go ahead and get busy!"

As soon as Qiao An'an returned to her workstation, Su Anwei immediately came over.

"Hello, Qiao An'an." Su Anwei said with a smile.

"Sister Anwei, I'll have to trouble you in the future." Qiao An'an's face was a little red.

Su Anwei looked at her and smiled, "An'an, you're so shy."

"But don't be nervous. Manager Xu may seem cold, but he's kind-hearted. All our colleagues here are easy to get along with."

Feeling the kindness, Qiao An'an breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Sister Anwei."

"You're welcome. We've all been through this before, so we understand. You should know what the assessment covers, right? Make the most of it. If you don't understand anything, just ask us."

However, if you'd like to participate in the projects we have on hand, that's fine too. If you perform well, you can be promoted to a permanent position early.

After saying that, Su Anwei raised an eyebrow as if it were amusement.

Qiao An'an didn't expect Su Anwei to tell her so many things.

She instantly felt less nervous.

"Thanks."

Qiao An'an smiled and said, "I will definitely do my best. If there is anything I don't understand, I will trouble Sister Anwei to guide me."

Seeing her adorably serious expression, Su Anwei instantly smiled and said, "Leave it to me."

As she spoke, she glanced at the time and said, "I can't chat anymore, I have to work hard to catch up. Take a look at the materials first, and feel free to ask me if you don't understand anything."

After saying that, Su Anwei immediately sat down and got busy.

It was lunchtime and Qiao An'an didn't even realize it.

It wasn't until Su Anwei called her that she realized she was off work. When she looked up, she said, "Sorry, I was so engrossed in what I was looking at."

"It's okay, I'll take you to the cafeteria," Su An smiled.

Qiao An'an quickly packed her things. "Okay, I'll treat you, Sister Anwei."

I was really hungry all morning.

Qiao An'an followed Su Anwei, listening to the introduction.

As soon as you enter the cafeteria, you can smell the aroma of food.

Qiao An'an got her favorite dishes and followed Su Anwei to find a seat.

Suddenly, a man's voice rang out.

"Hello, may I sit here?"

Qiao An'an looked up.

The man was wearing a suit, and his eyes were smiling; he didn't seem to have any ill intentions.
