Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Quite Disgraceful (1) Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Quite Disgraceful (1) Lying down wasn’t a comfortable sleeping position, but Lu Wanwan was just too exhausted, too sleepy.
She had been suffering all day from a sore back and aching legs, drained of energy from the price she paid for the jokes she made with Xu Yuan last night, and this morning.
If it weren’t for work, she would probably have chosen to sleep the entire day.
Waiting for Gu Annan was boring, and as ti dragged on, she couldn’t stop her eyelids from fighting each other.
Once she lay down, she began to sink deeper into sleep, seemingly unable to wake up no matter what.
It was only when she heard so talking, the sound close to her, that she opened her eyes and felt everything from her shoulders down had gone numb.
Lu Wanwan sighed wearily and planned to sit up and rub her arms.
In a foggy state of mind, she wondered what ti it was, how long she was supposed to wait.
It wasn’t until she raised her head that she realized soone was indeed next to her. She turned her head to find Gu Annan leisurely sitting beside her.
“You’ve finished the eting,” Lu Wanwan imdiately stood up, and the blanket on her fell to the floor.
When had it been placed on her?
She picked it up, looked at it with confusion, and turned to the icy-faced man.
It didn’t seem like sothing he would do. Besides, he couldn’t have been waiting here for her to wake up; he must have just arrived shortly before.
Especially with that accusatory look in his eyes, clearly dissatisfied with her sleeping there.
“Whose blanket is this? I’ll return it.”
“You don’t know whose this is?” Gu Annan, with his legs crossed lazily and brows slightly raised, seed to be in no rush to leave any longer.
“I’ve been sleeping soundly,” Lu Wanwan rubbed her head, still looking a bit drowsy, “Perhaps your secretary saw asleep and brought it over.”
Gu Annan didn’t answer, just stared at her disapprovingly, making her skin crawl.
“Just wait for , I’ll return it and co back.”
Waking up to this feeling of pending reprimand was terrible. She needed to talk to normal people to recuperate.
Lu Wanwan didn’t care if he agreed or not and ran out with the blanket.
The outer office area was especially large and open. She hadn’t walked far before she was stunned. Where was everyone?
The brightly lit interior was empty; the silence was such that only her breathing could be heard.
Unwilling to give up, she walked back in and finally confird that the entire floor was devoid of people.
Glancing at the wall clock, it was already six-thirty.
She had slept on the desk for more than an hour.
When had Gu Annan co out, and how long had he been sitting beside her?
Lu Wanwan hurried back to the door of the rest area. Gu Annan had already co out, standing at the doorway, one hand in his pocket, waiting upright.
“Everyone’s gone ho, so it seems I can’t thank them today,” Lu Wanwan spoke helplessly, “Let’s go back then, and you can thank them for tomorrow.”
Her helpless expression, combined with her still-drowsy appearance, showed a dazed tenderness in her eyes.
Coupled with her ssy hair, she reminded him of how she looked first thing every morning.
His throat felt dry, and he involuntarily moved closer.
“Gu Annan?”
Before Lu Wanwan could react, she was swiftly wrapped in his arms and he kissed her lips.
At the sa ti, Gu Annan pulled the blanket out of her hand, encircling her tightly with his arms.
Leaning against the cold glass wall, she felt it growing progressively hotter.
Finally, when they stopped, she looked up at him with confusion.
Without any obvious reason, nor had she done anything to deliberately provoke this.
“The blanket,” he said softly, evening out his breath, his words brief, “No need to thank .”
