Chapter 91

Lu Jinnian still didn’t say a word, but he pulled the blanket that was draped over him and held it gently in his hands . The impervious cold glare he wore slightly softened . After a while, he gave Qiao Anhao a gentle murmur of “mmm” in response to what she had said earlier . Then he picked up the script on the table and gave it her .

“Your script . “

Qiao Anhao secretly lifted her eyes to see that Lu Jinnian’s expression was quite calm . He didn’t mind that she had walked into his room without permission or opened his window on her own accord . Only then did she let out a sigh of relief .

When she reached out to take the script, Lu Jinnian suddenly said, “Thank you . “

Astonished, Qiao Anhao lifted her head to look at him .

Before their marriage, in the span of five years, there hadn’t been much interaction between them . Even before those five years, there was over half a year where he was cold and impatient towards her . After their marriage, he ignored her when she spoke or responded rudely to whatever she said . In the course of about six years, he never spoke a single word to her calmly .

This was the first time . Even if it was just a polite “Thank you” . These two simple words brought out an indescribable feeling inside her .

Qiao Anhao stared at Lu Jinnian for at least half a minute before snapping back to her senses . She felt her eyes burn a little, and she quickly looked down, covering the wetness in her eyes . She hugged the script in her hands and said in a low voice, “You’re welcome . “

Lu Jinnian didn’t respond .

Qiao Anhao stood quietly . Calm and composed, she said, “It’s rather late . I’ll be going now . “

Lu Jinnian nodded with a dull “mmm” . As Qiao Anhao turned around, he suddenly remembered what his assistant had said earlier when he brought over the ginger tea; something about producer Sun looking for her to talk about a new drama .

“Ah, there’s just one more thing . “

Qiao Anhao turned around, suspiciously looking at Lu Jinnian .

Lu Jinnian’s eyes swept across the table before he said in an elegant tone, “Recently, Huan Ying Entertainment has been investing in a historical drama . Like ‘Alluring Times’, it’ll have the same top quality lineup, screenwriter, and director . It hasn’t yet been publicized and the characters haven’t been finalized yet, but it’s estimated that the shooting will start after ‘Alluring Times’ finishes . I’ve organized for you to join the cast as their leading actress . Make your schedule free . “
