Marry Me Quick

Chapter 803 I Lied to You

Over the years, Bai Yunan had consistently acted in this way, making brief appearances before disappearing for a

while.

He had been coming and going for the previous two years, which was accepted as normal.

Bai Yunan lowered his head to peel the crawfish, eating a few himself before starting to peel for Lu Qingyou.

As he slowly and leisurely peeled crawfish, he casually asked her, "How's work been recently?"

"It-it's been good." She stumbled nervously when he inquired about her job.

There was a hint of flash in Bai Yunan's eyes as he lowered them. Then, with calm, he replied, "Oh, yeah? I'll drive

you to work tomorrow since I'll be free."

After a brief change in expression, Lu Qingyou solemnly replied, "No, I'm fine. Now that you have some spare time,

try to get some rest.

Bai Yunan flatly rejected her, saying, "I really don't mind."

"Alright then." Lu Qingyou knew that once Bai Yunan made a decision, it was difficult to change his mind, so she

simply agreed.

She could just have him drop her off at the company's entrance, and then she would send him away when she got

off the car. She would wander around for a while and then go back.

He couldn't possibly follow her the whole day, right?

The more she thought about it, the more feasible this plan seemed. However, she didn't notice Bai Yunan's face

becoming increasingly cold.

Around 10.00PM., Cheng Qiulu returned home and entered her own bedroom, only to find Lu Qingyou lying on her

bed playing with her phone. Cheng Qiulu casually threw her bag aside and asked Lu Qingyou, "Why are you sleeping

in my room again? Is Yunan here?"

"Yes." Lu Qingyou was reading a comic book, her eyes glued to her phone, not even looking at Cheng Qiulu.

Cheng Qiulu tied her hair up with a hair tie, sat down by the bed, and curiously questioned, "Qingyou, why do I feel

like Yunan wants to pursue you? Otherwise, why would he come to our home to sleep on your bed rather than go

home?"

"If that's what he wants to do, what can I do?" Lu Qingyou didn't even give Cheng Qiulu a passing glance because

her phone had her full attention.

Cheng Qiulu was annoyed with her response and snatched her phone away, tossing it aside. She held onto Lu

Qingyou's shoulders and seriously asked, "Why is he sleeping on your bed and not mine? I'm his biological sister.

What do you think this means?"

Lu Qingyou's mind went blank for a moment before mumbling. "What?"

"That means you are more important than his own sister!" Cheng Qiulu said each word with emphasis.

"Stop being silly. It's no big deal. I'll let him sleep on your bed next time." Lu Qingyou brushed Cheng Qiulu's hand

away, grabbed a nearby pillow, and hugged it in her arms, sounding a bit disappointed. "How important can I be to

him? In his eyes, I'm the same as you, so he only sees me as his sister."

"He hasn't ever shown me, his own sister, the same level of affection as he does for you."

Cheng Qiulu had recently been getting along well with a guy from the research institute, and Lu Qingyou thought

she was just being foolish because she was so in love.

Lu Qingyou became irritated and exclaimed, "Go take a shower already."

"Alright, alright. I'll stop talking." Cheng Qiulu walked towards the bathroom while secretly scheming in her mind.

Lu Qingyou felt a sense of melancholy rising inside of her as she lay on the bed listening to Cheng Qiulu singing in

the shower.

Cheng Qiulu had a crush on her cousin Lu Shichu before this, but she had been turned down, and she felt dejected

for a while. She did, however, meet someone from the research institute who pursued her not long after.

It was rumored that he was Lu Shichu's assistant.

The two of them had recently begun dating, and things were going well.

As for her, she had just lost her job, and things were not going well in her love life.

…

The next morning, Cheng Qiulu made breakfast.

Cheng Qiulu's family ran a noodle shop, and her cooking skills were highly praised by her father. Everything she

made was delicious.

For breakfast, she cooked noodles and made two side dishes.

And Lu Qingyou ate with gusto.

Just as Cheng Qiulu finished eating, the phone rang.

Seeing her excited expression, Lu Qingyou knew that it was the assistant coming to pick her up.

She then glanced at Bai Yunan.

Bai Yunan turned to face her, his voice cold, and said, "Eat quickly, or you'll be late."

Lu Qingyou kept quiet when she heard that.

…

Lu Qingyou was a little nervous on the way to the company.

She always felt guilty and afraid when she lied to Bai Yunan.

Lu Qingyou hadn't even noticed the car had stopped because she had been distracted the entire time.

Bai Yunan rested one hand on the steering wheel, turned his head, and calmly looked at her. With a low voice, he

stated, "We're here."

"Oh, okay." Lu Qingyou reacted and quickly opened the car door to get out.

Bai Yunan watched her exit the vehicle as his hand unconsciously tightened on the wheel.

After Lu Qingyou walked a distance away, she turned around and saw that Bai Yunan's car was still parked there,

showing no signs of leaving.

Although she couldn't see Bai Yunan's face, she knew that he must be watching her.

For some reason, she felt a strange sensation of being choked from the inside.

The reason why Bai Yunan would give her an earful was because he cared about her.

In general, Bai Yunan was not a talkative person; he was a man of few words, and when he was angry, he became

even more terrifying. But she was aware that everything he did, said, reprimanded, or treated harshly towards her

was done for her own benefit.

As she thought about it, she found it difficult to move her legs.

She shouldn't have lied to him like this.

With this thought, she turned around and ran back.

When she reached the front of the car, she opened the door, panting, and said to Bai Yunan, "Yunan, I actually lost

my job. I don't need to go to work today. I lied to you."

She looked at Bai Yunan while gripping her bag firmly and tensely, like a child who knew she had done something

wrong and was dreading the incoming reprimand but had no choice but to endure it.

Bai Yunan slightly pursed his lips as he was looking at her anxious gaze. He couldn't bear it and took back the words

on the tip of his tongue, and coldly said, "Get in."

Lu Qingyou blinked her eyes, finding it difficult to accept what she had heard.

Yunan isn't angry? Or is he planning to take me back and then scold me?

Thinking of this possibility, she lowered her head and got into the car, keeping her distance from Bai Yunan by

sitting as close to the car window as possible.

He actually found out about her boss harassing her last night, and he was furious at the time, so furious that he

wanted to drop everything and go find her.

But on the way there, he gradually calmed down and remembered what she had said before, that she should make

her own decisions about her own matters.

She had grown up, and he couldn't force her with the same methods he used to use on children.

He anticipated that she would go back to her rented flat, so he arrived early to wait for her.

Bai Yunan was waiting for her to take the initiative and tell him. He believed that in Lu Qingyou's heart, he should be

someone she could trust.

But he didn't expect her to be so heartless. He waited all night, and she didn't say anything. When he said he would

take her to work, she even planned to lie to him.

So he was really angry because of that.

And seeing her avoid him in this manner, keeping her distance, fueled his rage even more.

He gave her a cold stare and said, " Sit closer."
