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

Lu Yanzhi leaned forward.

Qiao An'an subconsciously shrank her neck.

"You...you shouldn't be such a scoundrel..."

Lu Yanzhi chuckled softly.

"I just want to be a scoundrel to you."

Qiao An'an blushed instantly at his words, feeling a tingling sensation in her heart.

Lu Yanzhi looked at her, a smile curving his lips; he felt good.

"There are other people here!"

Qiao An'an nudged him; Zhao Dong was still in the car.

Zhao Dong didn't dare to make a sound, keeping his eyes fixed straight ahead as he drove intently.

Lu Yanzhi raised the partition in the middle, and the space inside the car instantly became smaller, turning the back seat into a small space where they could be alone.

He pulled Qiao An'an closer to him, letting her lean against him, and gently brushed the hair from her forehead with his other hand.

"Are you tired?"

His low, deep, magnetic voice reached Qiao An'an's ears, burning her face with embarrassment.

"No... I'm not tired."

She did nothing but wait; how could she get tired?

Seeing her blush, Lu Yanzhi smiled gently, "Why do you blush so easily?"

Qiao An'an felt even more embarrassed by what he said, and reached out to push him away, but he grabbed her hand.

I'm stating the facts.

Looking at her shy expression, Lu Yanzhi couldn't help but think of that night. His Adam's apple bobbed, and his gaze fell on her red lips.

It's killing me!

He took a deep breath and pulled her into his arms.

"What would you like to eat?"

Qiao An'an thought for a moment, "I want to eat something light. Your injury has just healed, so it's better if you don't eat spicy food."

"Then let's go eat Cantonese food."

Qiao An'an straightened up and met his eyes, which were filled with her own reflection. She smiled and said, "Let's go to the restaurant we ate at last time. The food there is delicious."

"Okay, whatever you say."

Lu Yanzhi's eyes were full of smiles.

Qiao An'an's face burned even hotter when she saw his smile. She quickly leaned back against his shoulder, lowered her head, and refused to look at him.

Listening to his heartbeat made me feel very calm.

Lu Yanzhi put his arm around her waist, sometimes lowering his head to rub her hair, sometimes reaching out to gather her hair.

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the private restaurant.

Zhao Dong stopped the car, got out immediately, and walked 500 meters away to wait.

He dared not go forward to disturb them.

Not long after.

Lu Yanzhi helped Qiao An'an out of the car and led her inside.

The two went straight to a private room.

The dishes were served quickly, all of which were Qiao An'an's favorites.

The fish soup was so delicious it made your eyebrows fall off.

Lu Yanzhi took care of Qiao An'an the whole time, picking out fish bones, deboning ribs, serving her food, peeling shrimp, and removing the food that Qiao An'an didn't want to eat. He didn't stop.

Qiao An'an looked at the food in her bowl and felt a sweet warmth in her heart. She picked up some food and put it into his bowl.

"Ayan, you eat too."

"it is good."

Lu Yanzhi smiled gently.

Zhao Dong also came in to eat, but he was in the next room. As he passed the door, he saw the gentle smile on his boss's face.

He couldn't help but shudder, instantly feeling a sense of dread, as if he had seen a ghost.

A person who never showed any emotion, a person as cold as ice, a person who kept strangers at a distance, suddenly seemed like a different person, smiling like this...

Sure enough, even the aloof and domineering CEO has a romantic side.

After finishing her meal, Qiao An'an slumped into her chair, clutching her stomach. "I'm so full!"

Seeing her satisfied expression, Lu Yanzhi chuckled and stepped forward with a warm towel to wipe her hands and mouth.

"Is there anywhere you'd like to go this afternoon? I'll go with you."

Qiao An'an did not answer.

Going shopping...

She preferred to go back to her apartment because she was worried about running into acquaintances if she went out...

Lu Yanzhi seemed to see right through her thoughts.

"If we don't want to go shopping, let's go home."

Qiao An'an nodded. "Let's go home."

Lu Yanzhi stood up, put his arm around her waist, and walked out of the private room.

Zhao Dong was in the car when he saw them come out, so he quickly drove over.

After getting on the bus, Qiao An'an naturally leaned on Lu Yanzhi's shoulder. Having eaten and drunk her fill, she felt sleepy.

A short while later, she closed her eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Yanzhi looked at Zhao Dong and pointed to the air conditioner.

Zhao Dong immediately understood and turned up the temperature.

Lu Yanzhi gently kissed the top of her head.

As if disturbed, Qiao An'an snuggled into his arms.

Lu Yanzhi picked her up and placed her on his lap, letting her sleep against his chest.

He looked down at her sleeping face, so soft and cuddly that he wanted to kiss it.

Looking at the president in the rearview mirror, Zhao Dong saw the undisguised doting in his eyes and silently slowed down, driving steadily.

A moment later, the car stopped in the parking lot.

Zhao Dong got out of the car quietly and gently opened the back door.

Lu Yanzhi carefully carried Qiao An'an out of the car.

Perhaps she was really tired, because Qiao An'an slept very soundly and didn't wake up at all when she was carried out of the car.

Lu Yanzhi said softly, "Goodness, we're home."

He carried the person in his arms and walked towards the apartment.

Zhao Dong, carrying the thin film, walked at the front. Only after watching his boss carry the person into the apartment did he dare to breathe heavily.

Lu Yanzhi carried Qiao An'an back to the room and tried to put her on the bed, but the person in his arms wrapped her arms around his neck.

Lu Yanzhi looked at her, his Adam's apple bobbing, and his movements stiffened for a moment.

Then, he simply lay down on the bed, held her in his arms, and quietly watched her sleeping face.

After a long while, Qiao An'an opened her eyes with a yawn, her face still sleepy.

Then she saw the man hugging her, and her face instantly turned red. Looking around, she realized she was back in her apartment...

Why didn't you wake me up?

"I saw you were fast asleep, so I didn't have the heart to wake you."

Lu Yanzhi hugged her even tighter.

"So you've just been watching me from here?" Qiao An'an asked in surprise.

Lu Yanzhi didn't answer, but instead asked, "Have some water."

As he spoke, he stood up, took the water, and held it to her lips.

Qiao An'an took a sip and looked at his arm.

"You just had your stitches removed from your arm, so you shouldn't move around too much."

Qiao An'an took his hand and said, "I can handle these things myself."

Lu Yanzhi held her hand. "It's okay, I like doing these things for my sweetie."

If he could, he would want his daughter to never leave him for the rest of her life.

Qiao An'an's heart was beating a little fast. She looked at their clasped hands and smiled.

"I ate too much at noon, and now that I'm full, I just want to sleep," Qiao An'an said, yawning again.

Looking at her languid appearance, Lu Yanzhi's smile deepened. "It's normal. Would you like some fruit?"

Qiao An'an nodded.

Lu Yanzhi picked her up in his arms.

"Ah~"

Qiao An'an was suddenly lifted into the air, cried out in surprise, and quickly reached out to hug the man's neck.

"Put me down quickly, I can walk by myself."

"I like to hold my baby."

Lu Yanzhi carried her out of the room without any room for argument, put her on the sofa, and then went to the kitchen.
