Chapter 1132 - She’s Carrying Lu Nanze’s Child (8)

Qiao Lian said goodbye to Shen Liangchuan at the entrance and hurried into the office.

As she entered, she saw the receptionist standing there.

Tip-toeing up to her, she asked, “How did Mr. Lu look?”

The receptionist looked at Qiao Lian and smiled as she said, “He looked normal.”

Qiao Lian nodded and said “oh.” She peered upstairs and went to the female casters’ department. They had just finished moving yesterday, so now everyone was frantically working extra hours.

Qiao Lian didn’t have much to do and just sat there.

After a short while, someone walked in. When she saw Qiao Lian, she waved at her and said, “Ms. Qiao, there’s a document here that requires Mr. Lu’s signature. He’s asked you to take this to him.”

Could she possibly say no?

She had just taken great liberties with him and now he wanted her to bring him the document. It certainly didn’t sound like anything good.

But wasn’t this a chance for her to boldly go to his office?

It was a good opportunity to explore her way around.

After all, even though she had been familiar with the Lu family building eight years ago, this building was now an entirely different one.

She bit her lip at this thought, took the document from the person and walked out of the office slowly.

To get to the penthouse, she had to take the director’s exclusive elevator.

She could get into his office with her keycard, but she had to get off the elevator a level below the penthouse. Then, she had to take the stairs one level up to reach the penthouse itself. She slowly ascended the staircase.

If she were to come here to steal the account book, she couldn’t take the elevator all the way up for sure.

She could only take the stairs, so she had to have a look first.

After a slow walk to the penthouse, she arrived at a doorway. She pushed the door lightly but it stayed shut.

Hence, using a little more force, she gave it another push. The door creaked, but still it stayed firmly shut.

As she stood there puzzled, she suddenly saw someone through the glass panel on the door. She jumped and sprang back. Turning around and ready to run away, the door suddenly flew open.

At once, a man who looked like some sort of bodyguard appeared at the doorway and said to her, “Ms. Qiao, Mr. Lu is waiting for you.”

Qiao Lian: ...

Had she been discovered?

If she had indeed been discovered, what was she going to say later?

Struggling to come up with something as she made her way up, she heard the turn of the key as the bodyguard locked the door.

She looked back and realized... that door was locked.

Qiao Lian: ...

It was no wonder she couldn’t open it.

This Lu Nanze was a seriously protective person.

She was full of unspoken criticism as she walked into Lu Nanze’s office.

For security reasons, Lu Nanze’s office was close to the stairs. The penthouse had a simple layout and few staff.

As Qiao Lian entered, Lu Nanze was looking at the computer. He saw her approaching with her head down, like a guilty child who had done something wrong. With a wave of his hand, the bodyguard left the room.

Lu Nanze turned his gaze on Qiao Lian and signaled for her to come.

Qiao Lian shook her head and said, “Just tell me what it is. I’m not going to walk right into your trap!”

She looked at him guardedly.

Lu Nanze frowned and turned the computer monitor towards her.

When she looked at it, she realized the images were recordings of the stairs outside. He had seen all of her stealthy movements earlier on.
