Reborn Aristocrat: Oppressing

In that case…

Why was this man treating her this way?

It must be to lower her guard so that they could work together more smoothly.

Alright.

She had to admit that she did not have a good excuse. However, she would not allow herself to feel touched even for just a moment, nor would she allow herself to make the same mistake she made in her previous life!

She returned to her room with the flu medicine and poured herself a glass of warm water.

Her dad always said that health was the most important thing.

Come to think of it, she really could not torture herself like this.

After taking her flu medicine and taking a warm shower, she got ready to deal with some more matters regarding her dad’s case. As soon as she sat down in front of her computer, she felt lightheaded, and her eyelids were about to shut. She massaged her temples. Logically speaking, she should not be this tired.

She casually picked up the flu medicine that Mo Yuanxiu had given her.

This… this… this bastard!

She felt as if a million curses were running through her head!

There was clearly a drug in the mix that could help her sleep faster.

He knew that she was busy, but he still did this to her!

She really should not have thanked him.

She was utterly unhappy but could only lie on the bed and sleep.

She could not even see the computer screen clearly now, much less think about anything. The moment she leaned against the pillow, she fell asleep.

She slept very peacefully.

It was a dreamless night!

…

The following morning.

Lu Manman stretched herself and got out of bed.

She had not felt so refreshed in a long time.

She felt so good after a good night’s sleep, and her cold was gone as well.

She got up, showered, and headed downstairs.

In the living room, Lu Zishan and He Xiuwen were watching the television. The two of them turned to look at their daughter. Lu Zishan smiled and said, “You woke up a little later today than usual.”

“Mm-hm, but I slept well. I might be more productive.”

“I’m just worried that you won’t know how to reduce your stress. It seems like I’ve really underestimated my darling daughter.” Lu Zishan walked toward her. “Finish your breakfast before going to work. Don’t starve yourself.”

“Alright.”

Lu Manman ate a few bites before leaving the villa.

She was half an hour late for work.

But she felt that being late for this half an hour was beneficial for her upcoming work.

Hence, she had automatically forgiven Mo Yuanxiu’s silly actions last night.

She did not want to argue with an idiot!

With that thought in mind, the car arrived at Lu Firm soon enough.

She had just entered her office when Zhang Cui was about to report on work.

“Secretary Zhang, come in later,” Lu Manman said directly.

Zhang Cui was stunned, then obediently left.

Lu Manman looked at the caller ID and hurriedly picked up the call.

Whenever Ye Heng took the initiative to call her, things would progress more smoothly.

“Ye Heng.”

“Miss Lu, I’ve found a lot of information that is beneficial for your father. I’ll send it to you via email, so take note of it. Also, I’ll get someone to send you some papers and evidence.”

“Thank you, Ye Heng,” Lu Manman said sincerely.

“You’re welcome. It wasn’t solely my credit, after all.” Ye Heng smiled. “Call me if you need anything else. I was threatened by someone and told not to disrupt your marriage progress. It’s not easy being friends these days. Bye.”

Lu Manman put down her cell phone and turned on her computer. She entered her inbox and downloaded the documents Ye Heng sent her.
