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

At 10:30 a.m., the two woke up at the same time.

Lu Yanzhi held her in his arms, his voice lazy and doting.

"Sweetie, after you've met my family, how about we go out and have fun for a couple of days?"

Qiao An'an looked at him, her eyes still filled with the dazed look of someone just waking up, and asked, "Where are we going?"

"Let's go wherever you want to go." Lu Yanzhi lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "Just the two of us."

"I want to take you out for a walk to relax."

Lu Yanzhi's eyes were filled with anticipation.

Especially after seeing how hard Qiao An'an worked, staying up all night for a project a few days ago, he felt sorry for her. Now that things were over, he wanted to enjoy some quality time together.

Qiao An'an was somewhat embarrassed.

"I have to go to work, and although the project has been approved, there is still a lot of work to be done."

Lu Yanzhi looked at her serious yet conflicted expression and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

His little darling is truly both sensible and heartbreaking.

"You can go out and have fun without taking time off work."

Qiao An'an looked at him in confusion, "Huh?"

Lu Yanzhi smiled and kissed her lips affectionately, "As the newly appointed boss, it's not unreasonable for me to arrange a team-building activity for the company employees, is it?"

"This works?" Qiao An'an asked in surprise.

"certainly."

Lu Yanzhi lowered his head and kissed her lips again.

"You like the sea, so let's book a seaside resort, how about that? The whole company can go, so you won't have to take time off."

Qiao An'an was shocked.

"You...you organized a company-wide team-building event just to go out with me?"

This is outrageously extravagant.

Lu Yanzhi looked at her, his expression self-righteous.

"I wanted to take Guai Guai out to play, but you don't want to take time off work, so this is the only option."

Hearing the man's nonchalant tone, Qiao An'an's eyes welled up with tears.

This office seems to have always put her first, considering her feelings in everything and handling matters in a way that makes her feel at ease.

Seeing the tears in her eyes, Lu Yanzhi softened his tone with heartache.

"Don't you like it? How about we go somewhere else? Wherever you want to go, it's up to you."

"no."

Qiao An'an shook her head and reached out to wrap her arms around his waist.

"I love the sea, but you're just too good to me."

It made her feel like she was dreaming.

When you wake up from the dream, everything is gone.

Lu Yanzhi smiled.

"Sweetie, I only want to be good to you."

"You don't need to think about anything, just enjoy yourself."

Qiao An'an's unease dissipated, leaving only peace and sweetness.

She nodded.

"it is good."

The two snuggled together in bed for a while, when suddenly, Qiao An'an thought of something.

"Oh no, I have to go to work today, and I didn't ask for leave."

Qiao An'an looked at the time, 10:30, and thought, "Oh no!"

Lu Yanzhi picked her up and took her to the bathroom. He squeezed toothpaste onto her toothbrush and said, "Don't worry, I've asked for leave for you. You go wash up first, and I'll make breakfast."

Upon hearing this, Qiao An'an breathed a sigh of relief.

After finishing breakfast, the two went to the company together.

Since it's been made public, we no longer have to sneak around.

Lu Yanzhi took Qiao An'an's hand in a very generous manner and led her into the company, then escorted her to the entrance of the design department office.

Qiao An'an sat down to work seriously, but the company's group chat had already exploded.

The administration department just issued a notice.

Next Monday to Friday, all employees will have a team-building trip to a seaside resort. The entire trip will be at the company's expense, and even a private car will be arranged.

As soon as the news was released, everyone cheered.

"My God, the new boss is incredibly wealthy, I love it."

Qiao An'an looked at the notice in her hand and instantly thought of this morning...

Her face flushed with embarrassment.

She was just wondering if Lu Yanzhi was blurring the lines between public and private matters.

But seeing how happy my classmates are now, it seems pretty good.

Su Anwei looked at her, "An'an, did you see that? Your guy is so ridiculously rich, it's adorable!"

He got more and more excited as he talked.

Su Anwei grew increasingly curious and lowered her voice, asking, "An'an, does President Lu spoil you rotten?"

Qiao An'an blushed instantly and smiled shyly.

Upon seeing her shy expression, Su Anwei suddenly exclaimed, "An'an, is this team-building event because President Lu wants some alone time with you, and you can't easily ask for leave...?"

Upon hearing this...

Qiao An'an looked up and met Su Anwei's excited and gossipy gaze.

It has to be said that sometimes a woman's intuition is terrifyingly strong.

Qiao An'an smiled somewhat guiltily.

Su Anwei understood instantly when she saw her expression.

"I knew it! We only had this opportunity because I wanted to leave my company to be with you, ahhhhh~~~"

"President Lu is spoiling us too much, we can't take this dog food anymore."

"An'an, I'm so envious of you!"

Upon hearing this exclamation, the surrounding colleagues immediately gathered around, all saying flattering things.

As Qiao An'an listened, her face grew increasingly red, so she could only lower her head and pretend to be busy.

But she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.

After the people around dispersed.

Qiao An'an took out her phone and sent a message to Lu Yanzhi.

[Ayan, everyone was very happy to hear about the team building activity.]

Lu Yanzhi replied almost instantly.

[As long as the child likes it.]

Qiao An'an felt only sweetness as she looked at the reply that came in a second.

The atmosphere in the company was full of enthusiasm all day long, with everyone working hard for next week's team building activities.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Dong came over carrying afternoon tea.

"Miss Qiao, this is afternoon tea prepared by the CEO, with your favorite fruits and cakes."

Zhao Dong spoke respectfully, and the fawning tone in his voice was obvious to everyone; this was truly his attitude towards the prospective boss's wife.

The colleagues around noticed and started whispering among themselves.

"This dog food..."

"Is this like raising a daughter?"

Qiao An'an felt embarrassed by the stares.

Zhao Dong glanced around at the people, "The president has ordered afternoon tea for everyone and will be here shortly."

Instantly, the office erupted in chaos again.

"Thank you, Mr. President!"

"Thank you, Mrs. President!"

This shout made Qiao An'an so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look up.

Her phone vibrated; it was a message from Lu Yanzhi.

Remember to have afternoon tea.

Remember to rest if you're tired. I'll pick you up after get off work.

Qiao An'an looked at her phone and couldn't help but smile.

She opened the cake, took small bites, and found it very sweet; her heart was even sweeter.

Su Anwei stepped forward.

"An'an, you are so lucky. President Lu spoils you so much that it's beyond just being envious."

Qiao An'an smiled shyly and distributed the fruit.

"You eat too."

Su Anwei raised an eyebrow.

"This is Mr. Lu's loving afternoon tea. I dare not eat it. I'm afraid Mr. Lu will chase me for nine blocks with a knife."

Qiao An'an was amused by her words.

an afternoon.

Lu Yanzhi's messages never stopped.

They would either remind her that she should rest or that she should drink water.

It's either "I miss you".

The blush on Qiao An'an's face never went down.

Only now does she realize how sweet it is to be cherished by someone.

Five minutes before the end of the workday, Lu Yanzhi had already appeared at the door of the design department office.

He stood there, looking at Qiao An'an, the tenderness in his eyes belonging only to her.
