Su Jianan's memory was actually very good. But her brain would automatically selectively sieve out non-important people and things. She would forget them after some time.
As such, she only felt that Tang Yangming, who claimed that he had once pursued her, merely looked familiar. As for when he had pursued her, she did not have a single bit of impression at all.
Tang Yangming's anticipation faltered when he saw Su Jianan's confused expression. "That's right, the number of boys who were pursuing you could circle the forensic building thrice. Furthermore, I was from another course, so it's normal that you don't remember me."
Su Jianan smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry."
"It's alright! Oh right, what are you doing in G City? I heard from our schoolmates that you've been working at the Municipal Bureau of A City." Tang Yangming said with a smile. "I've put in a request to my company to be sent to the headquarters at A City! I was thinking of meeting up with yo
The secretary had good tastes at picking out clothing. Su Jianan did not know if the secretary had gone out of the way to understand her tastes or had just guessed correctly. The clothes that she picked out were just like Su Jianan's usual leisurely and simple style. Even the colors that she picked out were what Su Jianan liked. She put on a thin spring jacket and put the rest of the clothes in the car. The driver asked, "Mrs. Lu, where do you wish to go?" She smiled lightly and said, "I'm not going anywhere too far from here. I'll just walk around nearby." It was getting late and there was no time to go anywhere far. However, it was too much of a waste of time to stay in the hotel room. She might as well walk on the unfamiliar streets and while trying to occupy her time, she might find see something unexpected. The driver nodded and drove the car following behind Su Jianan. He did not allow her to leave his sight but also did not disturb her. Su J
Her jacket was only slightly longer than her pajamas. It did not hide her smooth and long legs. It also did not have a collar. Her pale slender neck and her beautiful collarbone lines were perfect. When he recalled how sexy she looked when she came out of the bathroom... Lu Boyan's breathing had already become unnatural. He looked away and ignored Su Jianan's rush to the bathroom. If he stayed, what Su Jianan was worried about might happen. Su Jianan heaved a temporary sigh of relief. She quickly thought of a way out and eventually thought of something. They could just get another room. However, she did not bring her identity card. So only Lu Boyan could get another room. She would discuss it with him when he got out. Lu Boyan showered quickly and he emerged from the bathroom after a short while. He looked handsome even in the white bathrobe. His wet hair was slightly messy, making his handsomeness look untamed. The warm light shone on his t
The light by the river dimmed. The night that had lost its light grew even darker. The city had fallen asleep. Lu Boyan stood in the garden in the sky. There was a red spot of light on his cigarette held between his fingers. The thin smoke wafted up, passing his sight and then disappearing. Leaving behind the thick smell of smoke. The last time he smoked had been the night after Su Jianan had been held hostage. She brought soup to visit Jiang Shaokai at the hospital and did not return until it was very late. It was as if she had forgotten that she was married and had a home and a husband. He had been behind her in the day and had untied her. She rushed toward Jiang Shaokai. He called her name, but she cried for Jiang Shaokai. Then, he wondered if Shen Yuechuan was right and that the person she liked was Jiang Shaokai. If so, should he let go? It seemed that he should. The Jiang Family's background was clean and Jiang Shaokai had suffi
Actually, it wasn't a sandbox love between her and Lu Boyan but the secretary looked highly satisfied after she made things up herself. Su Jianan did not want to explain too much. She drank a few mouths of porridge and put down her chopsticks and returned to lie down in the room. She thought about it carefully and realized that there were many things Lu Boyan had not told her about in detail. She had been taken hostage by a killer a few days ago and he had appeared at the scene. He brought people to save her when he found out that he had been surrounded. He happened to pass by the police station and picked her up after she worked through the night. Yesterday, he had come back early intentionally... He had done all of these naturally and had never told her much about it. She was not a careful person and she would slowly forget things as time passed. But now that she pieced everything up together, she realized that Lu Boyan had already done many things for her.
Su Jianan was hiding. Lu Boyan could see it now. She had always been fearful of taking medicines. He had once stayed ad interim in her home, occupying one of the vacant rooms there. During then, there was one time when she, a ten-year-old girl, suddenly came running to him. Nimble and agile like a fish in the ocean, she slipped into the bedroom he was then occupying and hid under his covers. "Brother Boyan, don't tell my mom I'm here." Her mother had come looking for her shortly after. Only then did Lu Boyan find out that she had been trying to avoid taking her medicine. In fact, he learned that she would willingly engage in a battle of strength and wits with her entire family just for that. Afterwards, it had been him who had coaxed Su Jianan to swallow down the colorful pills of various sizes. He had promised to take her out to play. In the end, he did not keep his promise. After so many years, she was still the same. The mere sight of pills woul
This time, Su Jianan was careful in placing the orders. After that awkward incidence at the Moon Chasing House where she ran into Lu Boyan and ended up ordering an entire table of food that she did not finish, she swore she would never allow that kind of thing to happen again. She had picked the meat, the vegetables and then finally, the vegan dishes meticulously. By the time she was handing over their menus, a staff had brought out their soup. The soup had been prepared with seafood and bone. It was white and had a thick, brothy texture with a pleasant aroma. Pieces of red, plump goji berries floated on the soup's surface, like tiny red flowers that had blossomed overnight on snowy plains. All in all, the soup looked absolutely tantalizing. Su Jianan turned up the heat in a well-practiced manner. Soon, the surface of the frothy soup began to bubble. Outside the window, the opera was still playing. The play had moved into the farewell scene between the ki
"Last night... Lu Boyan only did that in the heat of the moment, right?" Although he was quite a bit of a b*stard at times, Su Jianan was still willing to believe that he was not some kind of crazy, evil maniac. As she let her thoughts drift away, images from last night flashed across her mind frame by frame, like a movie stuck on replay. His scorching lips, the possessive way he had kissed her, his irresistible touches, and his hot breaths... Every moment from last night reappeared before her eyes vividly. Luckily in the end... Or else, she herself could not be sure what would ensue. Su Jianan patted her cheeks, which had grown a little warm. She slipped into Lu Boyan's jacket, pulling it tight around her. Then, she stepped out. To her surprise, Lu Boyan was nowhere to be found in the bedroom. The door to the study was ajar and she could vaguely hear Lu Boyan's voice which came from the study. Carefully, she walked towards the study.
It would seem that Su Jianan was completely unfazed after the incident where she had been taken hostage. But in truth, she had merely kept her fears to herself. The fact was that her terror had come after the incident. Now, Lu Boyan was telling her, "Jianan, you don't have to feel scared anymore." Those words were akin to a dose of sedative. Every word had soothed her troubled heart. This also seemed to be the first time Lu Boyan had spoken so many words to her. She had once thought of Lu Boyan as the type who valued his words as if they were gold. She thought he would never utter so many words in the same breath. Realizing that he was being scrutinized, Lu Boyan frowned. "What's wrong?" "Were you the one who released the ropes on my hands that day? My brother said he saw you go upstairs." After so many days, Su Jianan was finally willing to bring up that incident. She was finally willing to face and deal with whatever that had happen
