After Divorce: Pursued by Cohabiting Boss

Chapter 132

Yu Sheng didn't know.

He didn't know that Li Zhen would take these details so seriously.

About sharing a room, he just wanted to wait a little longer.

About work, he just wanted to prove himself to his mother with Li Zhen.

How did everything become so different in her eyes...

He clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging, "Li Zhen, it's not what you think."

"It doesn't matter anymore." Li Zhen leaned against the wall and turned around, dizzy as she looked for the bathroom door.

"What do you mean it doesn't matter!" Yu Sheng's pain and anger were ignited by her light words.

He grabbed Li Zhen and pulled her back.

The dizzying sensation made Li Zhen's stomach churn.

"Ugh..."

With a dry heave, she quickly struggled free from Yu Sheng and rushed into the bathroom.

Yu Sheng looked uncharacteristically flustered as he hurriedly followed her in, "What's wrong with you!"

Screams of women rang out in the bathroom.

"Ah!"

"A man!"

"Pervert, get out!"

Yu Sheng seemed oblivious.

Li Zhen held onto the sink, "blegh" and threw up.

What came out was all alcohol.

She hadn't eaten anything tonight, her stomach contained only liquor.

Yu Sheng patted her back to soothe her, and took some paper to wipe the filth off her body and mouth.

Li Zhen's mind was hazy, she could no longer comprehend where she was or what she was doing.

With another "blegh", she threw up again.

Yu Sheng pressed close to Li Zhen, getting soiled by the filth.

But he paid it no mind, gently lifting Li Zhen into his arms, moving slowly so as not to startle her.

Holding her steady, Yu Sheng strode out of the bathroom with large steps, laying her down on a lounge in the hotel, "Wait for me, I'm going to get medicine for the alcohol."

Li Zhen's consciousness was blurred.

But she could make out that it was Yu Sheng's voice.

Yu Sheng?

Scumbag!

He got her drunk.

It hurt so much, her stomach felt like it was on fire.

Mustering a shred of willpower, Li Zhen staggered out of the lounge.

Her vision was a blurry mess, the gaudy lights around her warped and spun, the world rotating before her eyes.

Until she felt the outdoor breeze, knowing she had left the hotel, she sat down at the side of the road.

The pain in her stomach made her tremble.

Li Zhen fumbled to take out her phone, needing several tries before finding it.

She reflexively dialed a number, the other end picking up instantly, "Zhen Zhen."

"Lu Yanming! Come get me! It hurts! I feel awful! Don't want to stay here..." Li Zhen's words were slurred and disjointed.

She just knew that whenever she called Lu Yanming, he would instantly pick up.

As long as she sought him out, he would immediately appear.

This was already ingrained in her subconscious as the most reliable person to call for help.

Hearing Li Zhen's abnormal state, Lu Yanming's voice deepened, tinged with lingering concern, "Where are you? Zhen Zhen."

Where was she?

She didn't know.

She couldn't remember.

Her mind was a mess.

"I don't know..." The more she tried to think, the more chaotic her mind became, and Li Zhen was on the verge of tears.

"Alright, wait there for me."

The voice over the phone maintained its usual gentle composure.

Yu Sheng got medication from the hotel front desk and returned to the lounge, only to find the person gone.

He glanced coldly behind him, "Where did the woman who was just here go?"

The server at the door instantly broke into a cold sweat under that icy gaze, "That lady left on her own."

To avoid incurring this guest's wrath, he added, "That lady seemed to have sobered up from the alcohol, she left by herself, didn't ask anyone to help her..."

Yu Sheng's expression darkened, about to turn to look for her.

But he was stopped by Du Baifeng who came over, "Mr. Yu, so you were here! Chairman Li from the business association is looking for you..."

Yu Sheng paused.

He had been preparing to start a new company recently, the business association chairman was important.

The server quickly said, "Sir, that lady probably took a cab home already, she's likely back by now."

Yu Sheng pressed his lips in a thin line, and turned back into the banquet hall.

In a private room of a hotel, Wang Peng sat in the main seat, with Lu Yanming by his side.

The top management of Macro Group's M Country headquarters had come to do a mid-year review, arriving in Jincheng today. Wang Peng had barely managed to get Lu Yanming to come keep him company. With Lu Yanming here, there would definitely be no issues with headquarters' mid-year review this year.

Many of the attendees Wang Peng also recognized. The group chatted animatedly, putting Wang Peng in high spirits. As he raised his wine glass, it slipped and spilled onto Lu Yanming's hand.

Wang Peng hastily called out, "Whoops, Yanming...my clumsy hand..."

"It's nothing, Director Wang," Lu Yanming's expression did not change.

A server nearby immediately brought over a hot towel and handed it to Lu Yanming.

He was wiping his hand.

The phone on the table suddenly rang.

He was cleaning his hand and unable to take the call, so he glanced back at Fei Zhao.

Understanding his meaning, Fei Zhao promptly came forward and put the call on speakerphone.

Lu Yanming picked up the call, his voice gentle, "Zhen Zhen."

Everyone looked on curiously at Lu Yanming. His expression had instantly changed the moment he took the call, no longer the crisp aloofness when chatting with them, but obvious warmth.

Wang Peng was full of questions.

Zhen Zhen?

Lu Yanming would affectionately call someone by name like this?

Almost immediately, ugly wailing cries came through from the other end, "Lu Yanming! Come get me! It hurts! I feel awful! Don't want to stay here..."

Those present all worked under Lu Yanming at M Country headquarters. They exchanged knowing looks with each other.

A woman!

And she called him by full name!

Something was up.

At M Country, even female mosquitoes couldn't get near Lu Yanming, yet someone actually directly called him by first and last name!

How bizarre!

Wang Peng scratched his ear. This voice sounded a little familiar...

Lu Yanming's light colored eyes instantly darkened two shades. "Where are you, Zhen Zhen?"

One second.

Two seconds.

Five seconds.

Only low sobs could be heard indistinctly from the phone.

Lu Yanming gave Fei Zhao a look.

Fei Zhao nodded, immediately lowering his head to send out a message on his phone.

Ten seconds.

Twenty seconds.

Still no response from the other end.

Lu Yanming showed no reaction, displaying absolute patience. No one dared make a sound.

The private room was quiet as still water.

Lu Yanming continued waiting patiently.

He didn't miss hearing a single faint sob from the phone.

A full half a minute passed.

The female voice from the phone whimpered, "I don't know."

Lu Yanming casually placed the hot towel he was using on the table.

He stood up.

His posture seemed especially tall and handsome under the room's bright lights.

With no change in expression, he lightly said, "Alright, wait there for me."

His tone carried a pampering, soothing quality.

Those present didn't need more clues to understand what was going on, not after working together for so many years.

The girl on the other end was still sobbing unhappily, urging impatiently, "Fine, hurry up then."

Lu Yanming's voice softened, "Okay, I'll be quick."

He glanced at everyone, "My apologies, I have to go pick up my wife."

With that one sentence, it was like a bomb dropped in the private room.

But Lu Yanming acted as if nothing had happened, and strode towards the door.

Fei Zhao followed right after.

Wang Peng was stunned for two seconds before reacting, "What! Yanming, when did you get married!"

Lu Yanming's steps halted as he looked back and calmly replied, "The second day after I returned to the country."

Wang Peng: ......

Did he hear that right!

The second day after returning home?

On the phone, Li Zhen softly said, "Lu Yanming...you're at a social occasion right? You can choose not to come get me..."

Amidst everyone's shock at still not having recovered, Lu Yanming gently spoke.

"Of course I'll come."

"Mrs. Lu, you're always my first choice..."
