Chapter 1136: She’s Carrying Lu Nanze’s Child (12)
Puzzled, Qiao Lian stood up after a short pause when she heard this.
The delivery worker walked in and handed her a lunch set.
Confused, Qiao Lian asked, “Are you sure this is for me? I didn’t order lunch.”
The delivery worker smiled and confirmed it, “Ms. Qiao, I can confirm it’s yours. Someone calel Mr. Shen ordered this for you. He also said that you should have a nutritious meal. Do you need my help to lay the table?”
Qiao Lian quickly shook her head and said, “No, no it’s ok.”
The delivery worker left the package on the table and left.
Qiao Lian: …
She looked at the package and couldn’t help giggling.
This man, Shen Liangchuan, he’s so jealous.
She shook her head, picked up her lunch and walked to the lounge. But just when she had set the table, Lu Nanze walked in.
All the department staff turned to look at him, not daring to breathe a word.
Qiao Lian looked at him with a silly and innocent grin.
He was on the verge of saying something when he noticed the food on the table. He was surprised and asked, “You ordered takeout?”
Qiao Lian immediately nodded.
Her awkward smile eventually made Lu Nanze realize that this delivery must have been ordered by Shen Liangchuan.
This was simply too much.
It was hard enough to get an arrangement where he could get close to Qiao Lian at lunch time during office hours, but that Shen guy had to interfere.
This was simply intolerable!
Lu Nanze frowned with fury. He looked at Qiao Lian for a moment and narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, he walked over to the table and sat on her seat, saying, “This food doesn’t look too bad. I’ll eat it.”
He picked up the chopsticks and, without another word, chomped through the food on the table till nothing was left.
After he had eaten, he stood to his feet and looked at Qiao Lian. He said, “I’ve eaten your lunch, so now I’ll compensate you. Come with me.”
Grabbing her by her wrist, he led her out of the office.
Qiao Lian was stunned.
She stared at the food containers on the table, which looked like it had been swept clean by a storm, and then looked at Lu Nanze again.
He had, in five minutes, finished up all that food! Furthermore, when he was eating, he looked like he was doing it with a clenched jaw. It certainly didn’t look like he was eating lunch, it looked more like he was ripping Shen Liangchuan’s flesh apart.
Qiao Lian grimaced.
There was no food left. She couldn’t stay for lunch. She could only follow as Lu Nanze led them out of the office.
They went to the parking lot, got into the car and drove to a private restaurant.
They went to the same private room where they had had lunch yesterday. Different dishes were served this time, but they were still dishes that she loved.
Qiao Lian looked at the spread and glanced at Lu Nanze. He softly said, “Hurry up and have some food.”
She nodded, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
As she was eating, his cell phone rang.
He frowned as he looked at the phone. He got to his feet and walked to the other side of the room to pick up the call. Qiao Lian could not hear the other party, but Lu Nanze sounded impatient and interrupted the caller with an icy reply, “Isn’t your throat sore from talking so much? Tell him that he can scram if he has no wish to collaborate! And in the future, he can forget about getting any projects in Suzhou. Spread the word among all the local Suzhou enterprises—don’t they dare!”
Having said this, he hung up and turned around.
