Chapter 250: Chapter 250 Lost in Thought

Zhuang Shuqing sat up, hugged her knees and cried for a while before entering the room.

Lying on the bed, she tapped through all the apps on her phone, eventually stopping at Lu Jinyang’s contact number.

After hesitating for a moment, she pressed his number but immediately regretted it; it was too late to hang up.

The call was picked up, Zhuang Shuqing braced herself and put the phone to her ear, "Hello" she said.

"Hmm, why haven’t you slept yet?"

The man’s characteristically deep and pleasant voice came through, and for some reason, Zhuang Shuqing suddenly really wanted to act spoiled with him.

"Husband~ when are you coming back?"

The word "Husband" left Lu Jinyang on the other end of the line speechless for a long time.

Zhuang Shuqing didn’t hear a reply, so she called out again, raising the pitch of her voice this time to make sure he was listening.

"Husband~?"

"Didn’t hear it, say it again."

Zhuang Shuqing: "..."

On the other side, Lu Jinyang didn’t hear a response and furrowed his brows immediately, "Did you hear me, say it again!"

"...No, I’ll say it when you come back."

"That’s what you said."

Zhuang Shuqing immediately realized what she had said, and felt like crying without tears, "It’s already 2 AM, don’t rush back, come back tomorrow night instead."

Thinking of something, she added: "Right, tomorrow night is Tan Biyang’s wedding banquet, do you want to go?"

There was silence on the other line for a moment before he spoke: "You go ahead, I might be a bit late finishing up."

"Alright then, remember to find me when you get there~"

"Okay. Go to sleep, it’s late."

"Good night, husband~"

Before Lu Jinyang could say more, Zhuang Shuqing decisively hung up the phone and switched to airplane mode.

She lay back down in bed, a satisfied smile curling at the corners of her lips, gradually drifting into deep sleep.

The next afternoon, after Zhuang Shuqing finished her work, she checked the time and was about to go to the rest room to change clothes.

At that moment, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Secretary Ding entered, holding a box, and handed it over to Zhuang Shuqing, "Madam, this was sent over by the Boss."

"Alright, thank you."

Secretary Ding left after placing the box and Zhuang Shuqing thought for a moment before taking the box into the rest room.

Lu Jinyang rarely sent her gifts, so she was very curious about this box.

The packaging of the box was simple, and she easily opened it.

Inside was a daffodil yellow long cocktail dress paired with a white fox fur shawl.

Zhuang Shuqing took the dress out of the box and held it against her body, then walked over to the mirror to see the reflection and suddenly smiled.

She put on the cocktail dress, fastened the shawl, picked up her phone ready to take a photo, but as she faced the mirror, she stopped, unfastened the shawl, then posed for the mirror and pressed the shutter button.

She accurately found Lu Jinyang’s number and sent him a multimedia message, then refastened the shawl and headed towards her destination.

On the other end, Lu Jinyang was still in a meeting in the commander’s office when suddenly his phone rang. He casually unlocked it, and a stunning photo of a spirited woman captured his eyes.

The woman was wearing an off-shoulder cocktail dress, revealing her delicate collarbone, adding a touch of sexiness to the otherwise conservative dress. She was holding her phone towards the mirror, her face adorned with a bright smile, the daffodil yellow dress complimenting her fair skin even more.

As he gazed at the photo, Lu Jinyang became absent-minded.

"Cough cough~"

The commander unconsciously coughed twice, only to see Lu Jinyang slowly glance at him, then his attention returned to his phone.

The commander felt like crying without tears, "My dear Lu, can you give me some face and finish this meeting first?"
