Afraid that she would be chased out by Lu Mingjue, Jin Lan’s tone was filled with flattery.
Lu Mingjue was unwilling to continue paying attention to her and said, “Do whatever you want. Take your time.”
With that, he lowered his head to deal with the emails.
Feeling that the other party’s gaze kept sneaking over and landing on him, Lu Mingjue was impatient. What was this woman trying to do?
He had never met such a pestering woman before. It was really strange. If she knew little about him, yet she dared to say that she liked him and even came all the way here for him.
After typing a few words, he suddenly raised his head and met Jin Lan’s gaze. As if frightened by his fierce gaze, Jin Lan hurriedly retracted her gaze, looking a little fl.u.s.tered.
“Have you finished drinking?”
His faint tone was still filled with impatience.
Jin Lan quickly flipped the gla.s.s over. “There’s not a drop left.”
He did not expect her to do this as if she was afraid that he would misunderstand. Lu Mingjue was still angry, so he could not flare up.
“Then what is it are you here for? Tell me,” Lu Mingjue said.
Jin Lan handed over the bag she had been carrying. “Mr. Lu, this is your coat.
It’s already been washed and dried. I brought it over for you.”
It was only then that Lu Mingjue remembered that she was wearing his coat when he left the last time.
He naturally didn’t expect to get it back, nor did he expect to have any more interactions with her.
Seeing that she was eagerly bringing it over, Lu Mingjue glanced at it and said,
“No, take it away.”
“But how can you not want it? This coat isn’t dirty or torn. It’s also a very expensive piece of clothing. It’s still wearable.” She didn’t retract her raised hand.
It seemed that if Lu Mingjue didn’t accept it, she would keep holding it up.
Lu Mingjue said calmly, “I don’t want the coat that you wore before, okay? You didn’t have to send it over. When you go out later, find a trash can and throw it away.”
“Throwing clothes casually isn’t a good habit. In the past, my mother told me that even if the clothes are dirty and old, they still carry the owner’s aura. We should find a suitable way to deal with them. If we casually throw them into the trash can, it’ll affect the owner’s health and luck. That’s why I washed it and sent it to you. Besides, your coat is still in good condition.”
She said it with a pious expression. When she looked at Lu Mingjue, her eyes lit up.
However, in Lu Mingjue’s opinion, this was just a mystifying method. She thought she could use this method to woo him.
He said, “I don’t believe those words. Go out and bring the coat with you.”
“You don’t want this coat anymore just because I had put it on? How can you be like this?” Jin Lan felt a little aggrieved. “There’s nothing wrong with me! You make it sound like I have an infectious disease!”
“Yeah, this is the kind of person I am. What’s wrong?” Lu Mingjue crossed his arms and asked directly.
“You!” Jin Lan could not convince him. Thinking that it was about time, she did not say anything else. “Alright, you said it. If you regret it, you’re not allowed to ask me to compensate you for your coat!”
She retracted her hand angrily.
The stack of doc.u.ments on the surface of Lu Mingjue’s desk fell to the floor.
“Ah, I’m sorry.” Jin Lan quickly apologized, put down her bag, and went to pick up the things.
She glanced at Lu Mingjue’s expression and saw his displeasure. She guessed that he must think that she wanted to stay here for a while longer by making the doc.u.ments fall to the ground.
But in all honesty, she really didn’t do it on purpose.
She could guess from his expression that he would not listen to her explanation. Forget it, she should pick up these doc.u.ments and leave quickly.
Lu Mingjue saw Jin Lan gazing at him several times. He frowned.
After a while, Jin Lan finally tidied up the doc.u.ments.
She subconsciously glanced at the topmost doc.u.ment. When she saw a keyword, she couldn’t help but take a closer look. Then, her face turned pale.
She placed the doc.u.ments on the table and pointed at the one at the top. “W-What’s with this AIDS check-up? Don’t tell me you have a problem in that area? Y-Y-You…
She was so shocked that she was a little incoherent. She gulped in fear and subconsciously took two steps back. She looked down at the gla.s.s of water that she had just drunk, the bag that contained his coat, and the stack of doc.u.ments. Her face was filled with disdain and fear.
Could he really be…
Oh G.o.d!
Jin Lan’s face was shockingly pale. Her eyes widened. “So, you really…”
Lu Mingjue was misunderstood by her. He looked down at the test report on the desk and gritted his teeth. “Yes! I was worried that there was something wrong with you, so after I came back, I went for a check-up and specially bought medicine to take!”
“Me?” Jin Lan pointed at the tip of her nose. “You’re talking about me?”
“Who else could it be? I got drunk from a gla.s.s of wine and was brought back to the dressing room of your production team. Then, the cast and crew were gathered because of your scream! It’s not too much for me to say that you schemed against me, right?”
Being exposed by Lu Mingjue, Jin Lan felt a little guilty. Anyway, she was indeed the one at fault in this matter.
However, being suspected by him still hurt Jin Lan’s pride. “So you suspect that
I have AIDS? Do I look like I have that kind of disease?”
“Bad people don’t write the word ‘bad’ on their foreheads, and patients don’t paste their medical records on their faces. Of course, I have to be responsible for myself.” Seeing that she was angry, Lu Mingjue felt much better.
“You!” Jin Lan was hurt. “I’m not that kind of person.”
“Who knows? Didn’t you come to me for the resources in my hands? This time, you took a fancy to me and specially slept with me to get some resources. Who knows how many other people you’ve slept with for the sake of resources?” Jin Lan bit her lip tightly. Lu Mingjue’s words were clearly too hurtful.
However, she could not refute anything.
Her eyes turned slightly red, and Lu Mingjue added fuel to the fire. “By the way, since you’ve seen my examination report, I suggest you do a check-up too. If there’s anything wrong, it won’t be too late to get yourself treated.”
Jin Lan looked at him blankly. Lu Mingjue looked at her as if he wanted to see how long she could look at him.
In the end, she did not last long. She reached for her bag, turned around, and left. Before she left, she slammed the door.
She walked out like a gust of wind, startling the others in the studio. They did not know why this client was so difficult to serve..
