Chapter 495
"Okay . " After the assistant replied, he added thoughtfully, "Miss Qiao, when Mr . Lu wakes up, I’ll get him to call you . "
"Thank you . "
After making himself presentable, the assistant headed to Lu Jinnian's room .
The night before, he had gotten a spare room key to Lu Jinnian's room . After knocking on the door, he waited for a while, and when he was sure that there wasn't any movements in the room, he swiped the card and entered .
The living room was empty . When he pushed open the bedroom door, the strong cigarette smell came flooding out, irritating his nose, causing him to sneeze twice .
The bed was a mess, but Lu Jinnian was no longer in it . The bathroom doors were shut and the sound of running water could be heard . The assistant pressed his nose while walking towards the coffee table, the entirety of which was filled with cigarette butts of every length . He opened all the windows to air the room before taking a deep breath . Just then, he heard the bathroom door open .
When the assistant first started working as Lu Jinnian’s manager, he had nagged him about his eating choices and lifestyle, and even till today, the habit remained .
"Mr . Lu, why did you smoke so much yesterday? How many times have I told you that smoking is bad for health . Even if you can't quit, how could you have smoked so much?"
Lu Jinnian remained nonchalant towards his assistant's nagging . With his dripping wet hair, he picked his clothes up, draped them over himself, and started buttoning the buttons .
The assistant continued to nag, but just then, he remember the phone call with Qiao Anhao, so he stopped nagging and said, "Mr . Lu, if you have time, you should give Miss Qiao a call . "
Lu Jinnian paused, not making a sound .
His assistant started explaining the details, "Miss Qiao tried to contact you yesterday but since she couldn't reach you, she came to find me instead . I returned her call this morning when I saw her missed call . "

Lu Jinnian acknowledged his words with a brief "yea" while putting on his suit jacket . Grabbing the documents at the side, he left the room .
His assistant followed after him in a hurry .
–
Qiao Anhao's mood was lifted instantly by the call . She laid on her bed, happily returning back to sleep .
When she woke up once again, it was already noon . The night before, she had left the television running . When she glance over, she actually found Lu Jinnian, dressed in formal clothes, on the screen .
Qiao Anhao flipped and stared at the screen unwaveringly .
Lu Jinnian was tall and had outstanding looks . Even if the broadcast was about a new business cooperation, the camera was focused on Lu Jinnian . The screen never once left him, it was either zoomed in straight on his face or zoomed out for a wide angle view .
Lu Jinnian sat on the first row, a laptop in front of him . As the different speakers came on stage, he would occasionally tap his keypad before glancing towards his phone . Several times, he even swiped open his phone .
Qiao Anhao stared at Lu Jinnian's actions, a small smile spreading across her face, and a giggle escaped her lips .
Lu Jinnian was actually spacing out . . .
The memory of the past, of a physical education lesson came floating in her mind . At that time, her period came, so she left for classroom earlier than usual .
