Chapter 45

Qiao Anhao paused for a moment before stepping into the room . Instead of handing Lu Jinnian the script, she put it on the coffee table in the living room area .

“I’m leaving the script here,” she said .

Once she finished speaking, she lifted her head and looked at Lu Jinnian . The guy hadn’t moved an inch . He was still leaning against the bedroom door with the same emotionless expression on his face .

Qiao Anhao knew full well that she had done what she came here to do and should quietly leave .

Still, she stood in her tracks for a moment before saying in a low voice, “Goodbye . “

Then, she turned around and headed straight for the door .

Silence fell in the room . Besides the faint sound of Qiao Anhao’s footsteps, nothing was heard . But just as she was about to reach for the hotel room door, the sound of rushed footsteps suddenly came .

Qiao Anhao and Lu Jinnian didn’t think too much about what they wanted . Their footsteps paused slightly before continuing ahead .

Before Qiao Anhao could even take two steps forward, a hand from behind reached past her . The door she had tried to open was slammed shut with a “bang” .

Lu Jinnian left Qiao Anhao’s whole body trembling in shock with his abrupt actions . Just as she was going to lift her head to look up at him, he grabbed her wrist and fiercely dragged her into the room .

Her wrist pulsed with pain since he grabbed her with great force . She began to fight back with her whole body as she felt an immediate sense of danger .

As she struggled under Lu Jinnian’s force, he tightened his grip on her wrist until she was unable to break free . Qiao Anhao could only stumble after him as he dragged her to the bathroom door .

Lu Jinnian extended his arm and pushed the door open . With a strong pull, he propelled Qiao Anhao inside .

Before she could regain her footing, her whole body involuntarily trailed closely behind Lu Jinnian . He lifted her up in the air and threw her into the bathtub . Then, he reached out for the shower head hung on the wall, turned it on to it’s most powerful setting, and sprayed Qiao Anhao without a word .

The water ran fierce and was exceptionally cold, painfully hitting her body . She wrestled to jump out from the tub but was stopped by Lu Jinnian . He pushed her by the wrist to the furthest corner of the tub and continued to spray her with the shower .

When he was almost done, Lu Jinnian’s eyes fell on Qiao Anhao’s shoulder, where producer Sun had patted her . He aimed the shower head directly at her shoulder .

The pain intensified for Qiao Anhao as he concentrated the shower’s spray to one area . In response, she tried to dodge it but in vain . Lu Jinnian would always redirect the shower to her shoulder .

In the end, she gave up struggling all-together, closed her eyes and curled up into a corner of the tub .

Lu Jinnian ceaselessly showered her with cold water, leaving Qiao Anhao’s whole body to shiver .

Seeing this, he tightly pursed his lips and threw the shower head to the ground . He then seized her from the tub and shoved against the wall, pressing her tightly up against it .
