Chapter 376 She was really being targeted.
Unfortunately, they won't respond at all.
Because she only believed that humans could overcome nature and conquer everything.
Everything here is nothing but supernatural and bizarre phenomena.
"What did you just ask for?"
As they walked out of the temple gate, Lu Tingnian asked.
Qiao Luo shook her head. "I forgot."
forget?
So fast?
Or perhaps, they simply don't want to say it.
Lu Tingnian didn't ask any further questions and pulled her back to the car.
The car then descended the mountain road and soon entered the city.
In the midst of dazzling lights and bustling activity, troubles also follow one after another.
After arriving at the villa, Qiao Luo said to Lu Tingnian, "I might have to work overtime tonight, so you don't need to stay with me."
In the past, when she worked overtime at home, he would always stay with her, and she never refused.
But this time was different; she had no clue what to do and wanted to be alone.
Lu Tingnian did not insist and slowly withdrew, leaving her with her own space.
But instead of staying idle, he went to another quiet place and made a phone call.
"Go check if Qiao Luo has seen anyone recently."
"Yes."
As he put down his phone, Lu Tingnian's eyes narrowed coldly.
And on the other side at this time.
Qiao Luo has meticulously checked all the projects she has been handling recently countless times in order to find any connections between them.
But no, these projects and companies are all independent and have no connection whatsoever.
In other words, these companies simultaneously pressed the pause button on her work at the same time.
But none of them were willing to explain why.
It makes no sense.
She lost track of time.
Then there's only one possibility left: she was really being targeted.
Although I had a premonition.
But who is that person?
As she was racking her brains, there was a knock on the study door, and then Lu Tingnian walked in. He didn't come empty-handed; instead, he brought a bowl of something that looked like a medicinal soup to her.
"Drink this."
Qiao Luo glanced inside; it was a light brown color, and she couldn't tell what it was.
"What is this?"
Lu Tingnian: "It clears heat and reduces internal fire."
"But I don't have any internal heat," she said, puzzled.
Lu Tingnian thought to himself: I just ate so much spicy food, how could I not feel hot and bothered?
"Touch here."
He took her hand and placed it on her heart.
"How fast are you jumping?"
He didn't say anything, and Qiao Luo hadn't noticed yet.
"A little bit indeed."
"This is a reaction to internal heat."
My heart is racing, and I'm getting angry.
Qiao Luo didn't know where he learned this from, but it sounded quite reasonable.
"Okay, I'll drink."
It's rare that he knows these things.
Lu Tingnian watched her finish drinking what was in her bowl.
She even smacked her lips.
"It doesn't taste good."
Lu Tingnian smiled and said, "Not all medicines have a taste."
Qiao Luo thought about it and realized that he would never harm her.
After watching her finish her medicine, he took the bowl and left.
Qiao Luo once again plunged into her previously chaotic thoughts.
However, for some reason, when she tried to look back at those documents, she felt somewhat powerless.
Sleepiness crept in.
She finally couldn't hold back and slumped onto the table.
When Lu Tingnian returned to the study, she was already asleep, slumped over the table.
Lu Tingnian stepped forward, picked her up, and placed her on the bed in the bedroom. He covered her with the blanket, tidied a stray strand of hair from her forehead, and then slowly stood up.
He stood there, looking down at Qiao Luo, who was fast asleep on the bed.
She slept peacefully, unlike her previous restlessness.
In fact, he had just put a sleeping pill in the bowl of water she had been given.
Perhaps she is really tired and needs to rest.
So go to sleep, go to sleep well, and everything will be fine when you wake up.
His phone rang, and he quickly silenced it and walked aside to answer it.
He replied with a simple "Okay" after saying something over the other end.
The call ended.
When he returned to her side, his eyes were much darker.
The next morning, Qiao Luo woke up naturally. Strangely, she was able to fall asleep despite being so troubled last night. In the past, she would have stayed up for three days and three nights without sleep.
But last night, she slept unusually well and didn't even dream, because when she woke up this morning, she had no memory of dreaming at all.
It's true what they say: when you have too many lice on your head, you don't feel the itch anymore; when you're extremely annoyed, you become the best sleeping pill.
Qiao Luo found it somewhat amusing.
She stretched and got out of bed.
There was no sign of Lu Tingnian in the room. Qiao Luo guessed that he was probably downstairs, but when she went downstairs, she found that it was quiet.
Unable to find him anywhere, Qiao Luo had no choice but to take out her phone and call him. He answered immediately after one ring.
"woke up?"
Qiao Luo nodded. "Why aren't you here? Did you go out?"
Lu Tingnian: "Something came up at the company. Remember to eat the breakfast on the table."
"it is good."
Sure enough, when she walked to the dining table, she saw the breakfast he had left for her. Although it was simple, it looked very appetizing.
She sat down and started eating, and after finishing, she rushed to the magazine office.
Although many business operations have been suspended, she still has to go to work. After all, she is now the head of the department, and everyone in the department is waiting for her to get back to work.
