Lu Shao is cunning; Miss Nan has fallen for his tricks again.

Chapter 97 Harassing Phone Calls
Listening to Zhou Zan's description, Nan Xu could already imagine that scene.

It must be very romantic.

It seems that there weren't any romantic confessions when she was with Lu Zhiyan, and she didn't formally say "I love you" to him.

Nan Xu's envious gaze held a hint of melancholy.

Zhou Zan and Ling Shu were chatting and laughing and didn't notice Nan Xu's expression.

Nan Xu finished her work in the morning, and didn't go back to the company in the afternoon because she didn't want to stay in the office every day.

Nan Xu was wandering aimlessly on the street when she received a call from Lu Zhiyan. Just as she was about to call a taxi to go home, she received a call from Lu Zhiyan.

“There’s a banquet tonight, come with me.” Lu Zhiyan’s voice was deep and magnetic.

Nan Xu hesitated for a moment. If she went, she would definitely attend as Lu Zhiyan's female companion.

They had no prior interaction, so it would be strange if she suddenly appeared as his female companion, casually attending dinner parties with him.

Others will inevitably speculate.

Lu Zhiyan hasn't proposed to her or gotten engaged yet. If she goes there without any official status, people will probably gossip about her behind her back.

She's easily hurt and can't stand hearing that.

She doesn't want to go.

"I don't want to go," Nan Xu refused bluntly.

Lu Zhiyan was somewhat surprised to hear Nan Xu's refusal.

"Can you tell me why?" Lu Zhiyan asked gently.

Nan Xu also felt that she had been a bit dramatic. She had always wanted to marry Lu Zhiyan, so why was she backing down?

She's always been in control in this relationship, so why is she afraid?

Perhaps it's because Zhou Zan and Ling Shu were so romantic when they were together, and they just slept together.

Seeing that Nan Xu remained silent for a long time, Lu Zhiyan did not ask any further questions.

After hanging up the phone, Nanxu kicked a small pebble on the roadside in frustration.

Ugh, she's acting up again.

I don't know what she's being so sentimental about. She wasn't usually this melancholic or detail-oriented.

Lu Zhiyan hung up the phone, puzzled.

A moment later, Secretary Li knocked on the office door. "President Lu's suit has been delivered to the villa. It's almost time. Should we send a car to pick up Madam?"

When Lu Zhiyan returned from Yaocheng, he had already told Secretary Li about his marriage proposal plan.

Secretary Li immediately changed his address, from Miss Nan to Madam.

He knew they would definitely get married.

Lu Zhiyan waved his hand, "No need, I'll cancel the banquet too."

They declined? This is the third time the Zheng Group has sent an invitation.

"Mr. Lu, if we cancel the dinner, I'm afraid the Second Madam will be unhappy, right?"

"Unhappy?" A hint of displeasure flashed in Lu Zhiyan's dark eyes.

"She's unhappy because she's afraid Zheng Zhixi isn't good enough for the Lu family, it has nothing to do with whether I go to the banquet or not."

It doesn't matter?
Wasn't the second wife planning to have Lu Zhiyan marry Zheng Zhixi?
Ultimately, Lu Zhiyan's second aunt still had her eyes on the entire Lu family.

The second wife had only two daughters, Lu Zhiruo and Lu Zhiyue.

Lu Zhiruo has been working alone in the entertainment industry for many years, and she only loves acting and has no interest in company business at all.

Lu Zhiyue has just started university, but she ended up studying veterinary medicine.

Her future is destined to be at odds with the Lu Group.

Since the boss had spoken, Secretary Li didn't say anything more.

Whoever pays his salary is the boss.

When Lu Zhiyan rushed home, Nan Xu had not yet returned.

Half an hour later, Nan Xu returned to the villa in a taxi.

As soon as she opened the door and saw Lu Zhiyan sitting on the sofa, Nanxu's unhappiness vanished instantly.

She had thought it over carefully and realized that some things couldn't be rushed.

Moreover, she hadn't seen Lu Zhiyan for a long time and was suffering from lovesickness.

Hearing the door open, Lu Zhiyan immediately got up and went to the occult area. Nan Xu took out slippers from the shoe cabinet, and as soon as she looked up, Lu Zhiyan's tall figure blocked all the light.

The two were very close, their clothes almost touching.

Lu Zhiyan looked down at Nan Xu, the burning longing in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

He wrapped his arm around Nanxu's waist and pulled her forward abruptly, then lowered his head to kiss Nanxu's soft red lips.

About a minute later, Lu Zhiyan reluctantly pulled away from Nan Xu's lips; lust was not the most important thing at the moment.

Instead, we need to figure out why Nanxu rejected him a few days ago!
He took Nanxu to the Zheng Group's banquet to indirectly tell the Zheng family and his second aunt that it was impossible for him and Zheng Zhixi to be together, and to dispel their idea as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, he didn't explain things clearly to Nanxu, which only made her unhappy.

Nanxu was still somewhat unaccustomed to Lu Zhiyan's sudden departure.

Logically, Lu Zhiyan should have quickly picked her up and taken her upstairs at this point.

Looking at Nan Xu's beautiful eyes filled with tears, Lu Zhiyan suppressed the desire in his heart.

"What's wrong with you today? Who upset you?"

Lu Zhiyan casually brushed a stray hair behind Nan Xu's ear, and looking at Nan Xu's red earlobe, he unconsciously pinched it with his thumb and forefinger.

Unable to resist Lu Zhiyan's teasing, Nan Xu reached out and slapped Lu Zhiyan's finger away.

"It's nothing," Nan Xu replied in a muffled voice, her face flushed.

Lu Zhiyan raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you going to tell him?"
He was afraid of upsetting Nan Xu if he continued to press her for answers, but Nan Xu's image was reflected in Lu Zhiyan's deep eyes.

Lu Zhiyan swiftly bent down, picked up Nan Xu, and carried her upstairs.

Since she doesn't want to talk about it, there's no point in asking any further. We might as well use this time to do something meaningful.

Before Nanxu could react, Lu Zhiyan carried her up the steps.

"What are you doing?" Nan Xu asked, puzzled.

Isn't it obvious?

Lu Zhiyan smiled and said, "I thought you knew."

Nan Xu didn't pretend to be ignorant.

The two were making love in bed, and just as they were reaching their climax, Lu Zhiyan's phone, which was on the bedside table, rang.

Upon hearing the phone ring, a hint of displeasure flashed across Nan Xu's face.

Lu Zhiyan originally didn't intend to take the job; with Secretary Li keeping an eye on things at the company, nothing would go wrong.

Moreover, he repeatedly instructed Secretary Li today not to make phone calls unless absolutely necessary.

Secretary Li is a very sensible person, how could she not understand?
The call was disconnected shortly afterward. Nan Xu blushed, somewhat dissatisfied, and spoke with a sour tone.

"Mr. Lu is such a busy man, even the little time he has in bed is spent on other things."

She seemed to be complaining about Lu Zhiyan, but in reality, she was blaming Lu Zhiyan for losing interest in the phone call on his phone.

Lu Zhiyan laughed instead of getting angry, and whispered in Nan Xu's ear, "When did you become so possessive?" Then he suddenly thrust forward.

Nanxu's face flushed even more, and her complaints were gone, replaced by soft moans.

The phone rang again shortly after it was hung up, and Lu Zhiyan picked up the phone from the table with his strong, muscular arms.

The person who called was Zheng Zhixi, and Lu Zhiyan knew without a doubt why she was calling.

He didn't even give him a second glance before hanging up the phone.

"Why didn't you answer? What if it's something urgent?"

"Harassing phone calls."

Lu Zhiyan placed delicate kisses on Nan Xubo's neck.

On the other side, Zheng Zhixi, dressed in a sexy white halter dress, sat on the sofa at the banquet with her brows furrowed.

Seeing the phone call had been disconnected, she dialed it again, unwilling to give up.

Seeing Zheng Zhixi calling again, still unwilling to give up, Lu Zhiyan had a wicked idea.

Nanxu was really annoyed now.

Can't we just finish this properly?
Why did you have to make that call at a time like this!

Lu Zhiyan looked down at Nan Xu, whose face was full of anger, and gave her a comforting kiss on the ear.
