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

Jiang Chen felt that this must be the case.

That bitch Qiao An'an made a mistake herself and then blamed him.

But he has no evidence, while Qiao An'an has evidence against him, so he has no choice but to compromise now.

As soon as Qiao An'an left the ward, Yang Xue stared at her with a vicious look.

"Qiao An'an, I want to talk to you." Yang Xue's tone changed instantly, no longer weak.

Qiao An'an was somewhat surprised and nodded.

"Speak!"

She's willing to lend her a hand, hoping the two of them will stay together forever.

As soon as she left the hospital after their conversation, she saw Lu Yanzhi standing at the entrance waiting for her.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively took a step towards the man.

When Lu Yanzhi saw her walking towards him, he smiled and walked towards her as well.

"Goodness!"

Upon hearing this address, Qiao An'an wanted to turn and run away.

Running won't help.

"Uncle Lu, what are you still doing here?"

She thought Lu Yanzhi had already gone back.

"Is there anywhere you'd like to go?" Lu Yanzhi asked instead of answering.

This question stumped Qiao An'an instantly.

She had planned to go shopping first after coming out, buy some things for her parents, and then pick them up when they arrived.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yanzhi was still waiting for her when she came out.

"I want to go buy something," Qiao An'an said truthfully.

Lu Yanzhi stood looking at her, his suit making him look even more dashing, his eyes deep, and his aura oppressive.

His gaze remained fixed on Qiao An'an, his eyes like deep whirlpools, as if trying to suck one in.

"Wherever you want to go, I'll go with you."

"No need, I... I can go by myself."

Qiao An'an felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look him in the eye.

Lu Yan stepped forward, lowered his head, and leaned close to Qiao An'an, reaching out to lift her head so she could look into his eyes.

"You promised me."

Qiao An'an looked at the man's eyes and bit her lip.

She thought those conditions were just empty words, and that they would be over in three months.

She hadn't expected Lu Yanzhi to be serious.

But it was indeed something I promised myself.

Qiao An'an nodded helplessly, "Okay."

Lu Yanzhi took her hand and led her to a shady spot. "I'll go get the car and pick you up."

After saying that, Lu Yanzhi turned and walked towards the parking lot.

A few minutes later, Lu Yan got out of the car, opened the passenger door, and said, "Good boy, get in!"

Qiao An'an took a deep breath and got into the car.

"Where do you want to go?" Lu Yan asked after getting into the car and starting the engine.

"Anything is fine." Qiao An'an wasn't in the mood to shop anymore. With Lu Yanzhi around, and her parents arriving soon, she really didn't know what to do.

"Then I'll make the arrangements, how about that?" Lu Yanzhi asked for her opinion.

Qiao An'an turned her head to look at him, curious about what he would do, and nodded, "Okay."

Lu Yanzhi turned his head and met her gaze, a smile playing on his lips.

Qiao An'an felt like she had been caught doing something wrong. She quickly turned her head to look out the car window, not daring to look at Lu Yanzhi anymore. She felt nervous and embarrassed.

The car fell silent.

Qiao An'an secretly glanced at the man.

Lu Yanzhi's gaze was fixed on the road ahead, his profile sharp and cold, his hand gripping the steering wheel with clearly defined knuckles.

Qiao An'an realized that something seemed different about her, and she looked out the car window again with a sense of panic, her eyes filled with confusion.

She wasn't used to being with this man.

He had a powerful aura, and she felt nervous even without him saying a word.

But when she thought about how she had promised to spend three months with him, she felt she should adjust her mindset.

"Are you hungry?" Lu Yanzhi suddenly asked, breaking the silence.

Qiao An'an subconsciously looked at the man, but quickly looked away after their eyes met. "I'm not that hungry..."

It would be a lie to say she wasn't hungry. She hadn't eaten breakfast because she had no appetite and had been preoccupied with her thoughts. Now that things were mostly resolved, the man's question made her feel hungry.

Seeing her nervousness, Lu Yanzhi said gently, "Then let's go get something to eat first."

The words fell.

The car drove onto a road lined with flowers on both sides. Watching the petals fall, the scenery was beautiful, and Qiao An'an couldn't help but roll down the car window.

The faint fragrance of flowers instantly dispelled Qiao An'an's tension.

"It's still so beautiful here."

"Have you been here before?" Lu Yanzhi asked, looking at her.

Qiao An'an nodded, "Yao Yao brought me here before."

Walk forward and turn the corner, and you'll find a century-old shop. It's not a big shop, but the food is delicious.

Lu Yanzhi's voice was even gentler than before, "I'll take you to try a private restaurant."

A short while later, the car stopped at the entrance of a small alley, and Lu Yanzhi got out first.

Just as Qiao An'an was about to open the car door, it was opened by someone else.

Qiao An'an was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what was happening.

Since you've promised to get along well, then enjoy it.

After Qiao An'an got out of the car, Lu Yanzhi naturally took her hand and walked into the alley.

The aroma of food wafted from afar.

Wei An'an looked at Lu Yanzhi, who was holding her hand. He had a broad back and a steady gait, but he wasn't walking fast; he was probably waiting for her.

She looked at the large hand holding hers and felt a strange sense of panic.

The private restaurant was small, with only three tables inside. The proprietress greeted Lu Yanzhi with a smile as soon as she saw him.

"Yanzhi's here. Please sit down. The usual?"

Lu Yanzhi nodded in response, pulled out a chair, and said, "Sit here."

After Qiao An'an sat down, she looked around the restaurant. The menu on the wall featured home-style dishes, yet it gave her a feeling of home.

Just as they sat down, a young couple walked in hand in hand, talking quietly.

"Yanzhi, you brought your daughter here today. She looks just like you; she's very beautiful."

The proprietress walked over, smiling kindly at Qiao An'an.

Qiao An'an was very embarrassed and wanted to explain.

"No, ma'am, you've misunderstood."

The proprietress didn't expect to admit her mistake. The proprietress came over and said, "Old woman, come and help."

"I'm sorry, I'm getting old and my eyesight is failing me. Please excuse the poor eyesight." The proprietress quickly turned around after saying this. "Please have a seat, the food will be here soon!"

Qiao An'an was so embarrassed she wanted to crawl into a hole.

I never expected that I would be mistaken for Lu Yanzhi's daughter on our first outing together.

But since I'm about the same age as Lu Zhiyao, it's normal for her to be mistaken for someone else.

Just then, the proprietress brought over two bowls of sweet soup and placed them in front of them, saying, "These are for you, have a taste."

Lu Yanzhi looked at Qiao An'an with a smile and introduced her generously, "Boss lady, this is my girlfriend."

Qiao An'an stared at the man's calm expression, her eyes wide with mixed feelings, but her heart was racing.

"That's wonderful! Yanzhi finally has someone he likes. The girl seems like a good child, so you mustn't bully her!" The proprietress laughed even harder and went into the kitchen to talk to the boss.

Qiao An'an's face instantly turned hot.

A little while later, the proprietress came over again.

"Little girl, what kind of food do you like to eat?"

Before Qiao An'an could speak, Lu Yanzhi said, "Those are all her favorite foods."

The proprietress responded and turned to go into the kitchen.

Qiao An'an looked at the man with a puzzled expression.

Lu Yanzhi smiled and said, "Pan-fried tofu, eggplant casserole, and braised pork ribs."
