Married by Accident: The Rich CEO's Deeply Rooted Pampering Tactics

Chapter 156 Coquetry

Qiao Luo naturally understood this principle.

After all, Lin Mi is usually arrogant and domineering. She flaunts her power in front of her colleagues because she has Lin Mei backing her up. Everyone is angry but dares not speak out. Even if someone steals her business, no one will criticize them. They will only think that they are avenging everyone. But if it were someone else, it would be hard to say.

"I wonder who that old hag will assign that task to. But to be honest, it won't be good for anyone to get it at this point. After all, it's a big project, and whoever gets it will be envied."

Bai Ge added, "Especially for the two of us who are still relatively inexperienced, if we were assigned this task, it would really be a hot potato."

As Bai Ge spoke, she even silently prayed in her heart that the prize wouldn't be given to her, because she didn't want to be ostracized.

Qiao Luo didn't think that much about it; for her, it was best to just let things take their course.

So, after getting off work that evening, she went home as usual.

When she got home, Lu Tingnian hadn't returned yet. She thought about how she had not only gotten her job back today, but had also punished someone who had mocked her.

Although she didn't punish them herself, she was still particularly happy.

Feeling happy, she felt an urge to cook and show off her skills, especially since she remembered that Lu Tingnian had once surpassed her in cooking. Moreover, she hadn't cooked for a while, so she decided to take advantage of the opportunity and cook a surprise for Lu Tingnian.

With that in mind, Qiao Luo began to take action.

When Lu Tingnian returned, he saw Qiao Luo busy in the kitchen. He wheeled himself over and, hearing her humming a song, couldn't help but smile. "You seem to be in a good mood today. Is there something to celebrate?"

Qiao Luo was surprised. "How did you know?"

Lu Tingnian stared at her without saying anything. In fact, he didn't know what Qiao Luo was happy about. He just asked casually and also wanted to probe her thoughts.

Of course, he wouldn't let Qiao Luo know.

So he said,

"Did I guess right?"

Qiao Luo nodded, and then recounted to Lu Tingnian what had happened at the magazine office that day. Of course, she did not mention that she had been ridiculed by Lin Mi yesterday, only saying that she was despised by all her colleagues and was the target of everyone's wrath.

Lu Tingnian naturally didn't press the matter, but seeing Qiao Luo's excited expression when she talked about it, he finally felt relieved.

Just before he returned, he was worried that Qiao Luo would find out about the fact that he had helped her take revenge.

So he said, "It certainly sounds like we should celebrate."

Qiao Luo didn't think much of it and quickly prepared several of her signature dishes.

Lu Tingnian hadn't tasted her cooking in a long time, so he naturally praised it highly, which put Qiao Luo in a good mood.

Halfway through the meal, she suddenly remembered something and asked Lu Tingnian about it.

"By the way, I remember falling asleep on the sofa last night. How did you get me into bed?"

This problem had been troubling her for a long time, after all, his leg was still injured and he couldn't walk.

Lu Tingnian didn't answer immediately. Instead, he looked down at his leg, which Sang Zan had just healed, and then said, "Guess?"

His mysterious expression only fueled Qiao Luo's curiosity, but unfortunately, she had no idea. So, she shook her head and said...

"I can't guess, please tell me!"

Perhaps it was because she was too happy today, but Qiao Luo actually started to act coquettishly, which was quite rare for her.

It was this sweet, delicate voice that stunned Lu Tingnian.
