Chapter 205

When Qiao Anhao finished eating, she put the leftovers in the bin and placed it by the entrance hall . Then, she went upstairs .

Lu Jinnian was posed elegantly on the sofa with a notebook on his knees . With both hands, she hastily knocked on the door .

Qiao Anhao’s knock was a reminder for Lu Jinnian . She strode into the room, took the medicine she’d bought from the pharmacy, and placed it by Lu Jinnian on the sofa .

She pointed at the anti-inflammatory pills and said gently, “These are anti-inflammatory pills . After a while, remember to take them . You need to take four . . . ” Then she pointed at the rubbing ointment and said, “This is to be applied externally . If you need it, I’ll come over tomorrow to put it on . If you don’t, you can find your assistant . “

Lu Jinnian carried the computer in his hand, and slightly stiffened at her words . He gave a light nod .

Qiao Anhao followed with a nod of her own . After staying quiet for a while, she said, “So it’s getting late, I’ll head out first . “

Lu Jinnian didn’t say a word . Qiao Anhao waited for a few seconds, then said, “Goodbye” . She got her bag and walked out of Lu Jinnian’s bedroom .

Lu Jinnian sat on the sofa, unmoving . Before, he was always alone in the villa, yet he didn’t feel lonely . Perhaps because of her appearance, when she suddenly left, he felt like the villa became frighteningly empty .

Hearing the sound of the car starting up downstairs, Lu Jinnian grabbed the laptop and stood up . He walked over to the bed and looked around for a while for his phone .

He dialed a number . “Yeah, temporarily close off the exit, and let those on duty off for half an hour . Yeah, thanks . “

After he hung up the phone, Lu Jinnian walked, calm and composed, back to the sofa . He sat down, brought up his laptop, and continued to handle the urgent documents his company had sent him today .

With every letter he typed, Lu Jinnian sneaked a glance at the phone by his side . On the fifteenth time he looked up, his phone screen lit up with a call from Qiao Anhao .

Lu Jinnian wasn’t in a hurry to pick up, continuing to type on the keyboard . Then he very slowly reached his arm out to grab his phone . He slid a finger across the screen and picked up the call, “What’s wrong?”

“The gates of your villa are locked and there isn’t anyone on duty . Do you have an access card?” Qiao Anhao asked in soft voice, through the phone and into Lu Jinnian’s ears .

“Yeah,” Lu Jinnian actually answered honestly . Then he stood up, pretended to look around for a while . He even purposefully made some noise for Qiao Anhao to hear through the phone . Eventually, he held up the access card, looked at it for some time, and lied over the phone without looking red-faced or panting from the search, “Oh, I just remembered . Two days ago, I must of left it in the hotel at the set when I changed clothes and never brought it back . “

“Ah?” cried Qiao Anhao in shock . “So how do I get out?”

Lu Jinnian didn’t say a word, as though he was really thinking of a plan . After a while, he shared the plan in his mind, “Come back first . If you can’t leave tonight, then stay here for now . “

Qiao Anhao, who couldn’t leave the villa, thought it thoroughly, but could only do as told, and so she replied with an “oh” .

Lu Jinnian didn’t say more and hung up the phone straightaway .
