Chapter 289: I was Wrong
After saying goodbye to her mentor, An Nuan drove straight to Lin Xiao Feng’s office while carrying a bag of takeaway food.
As she walked into the lobby, An Nuan took out her phone, wanting to let Assistant Lu know that she was at the company. Before she made the phone call, a guard approached her with a smile.
An Nuan lowered the phone in her hand and looked at the man in puzzlement.
“Mrs. Lin?” The guard said. “Are you here to visit your husband?”
It took An Nuan a while to remember that she had encountered this guard before while leaving with Lin Xiao Feng previously.
The guard greeted Lin Xiao Feng habitually and Lin Xiao Feng introduced her as his wife.
It seemed that the guard still remembered her.
“Mrs. Lin, you can go straight to Mr. Lin’s office,” the guard said.
An Nuan pondered over the guard’s words and realized that it would be troublesome to call Assistant Lu to help her.
“Alright.” An Nuan smiled. “Thank you.”
An Nuan followed the guard to the elevator. With one tap from the guard’s access card, An Nuan was able to head to Lin Xiao Feng’s floor.
As the elevator moved slowly, An Nuan began to think of Lin Xiao Feng’s reaction when he saw her later. She planned to stay for a while and accompany Lin Xiao Feng for lunch before leaving.
Ding!
An Nuan snapped out of her trance and watched as the door slid open.
After visiting the office a few times, An Nuan was familiar with his floor.
Taking a deep breath, she walked towards Lin Xiao Feng’s office. Unexpectedly, An Nuan ran into Secretary Shi. The other woman looked surprised by her presence.
“Hello.” An Nuan smiled.
“Mrs. Lin?” Secretary Shi’s expression stiffened. “Are you here for Mr. Lin.”
“That’s right.” An Nuan nodded. She glanced towards Lin Xiao Feng’s room not too far away from where she stood. “Is he busy?”
Secretary Shi straightened up and blocked An Nuan’s eyes from her boss’s door.
An Nuan raised a brow as she met the secretary’s eyes.
This person… Was she trying to stop her from seeing her husband?
An Nuan’s expression turned darker at the thought.
“Mr. Lin is busy at the moment, He is currently in a meeting,” Secretary Shi said. “Mrs. Lin. I don’t think you can see him today.”
“It’s alright.” An Nuan kept her smile. “I can wait for him.”
Secretary Shi’s expression stiffened as An Nuan stepped aside to walk to Lin Xiao Feng’s office.
“Mrs. Lin.” Secretary Shi tried to stop An Nuan again.
Just in time, Lin Xiao Feng’s door was pulled open from the inside and Assistant Lu’s figure appeared.
“Mrs. Lin?” Assistant Lu was surprised to see An Nuan in front of him.
“Assistant Lu, hello,” An Nuan greeted.

“Why didn’t you call me?” Assistant Lu asked. “I could pick you up from the lobby.”
“I’m sorry for coming over unannounced. The guard recognized me and let me come up,” An Nuan said. “Will this be inconvenient?
“Of course, not.” Assistant Lu chuckled. “Mr. Lin would be happy to see you.”
An Nuan peeked at Lin Xiao Feng’s door. “Is he busy? I heard that he is in a meeting.”
Assistant Lu looked puzzled. His gaze fell on Secretary Shi who was standing behind An Nuan. There was a shift in his expression but Assistant Lu quickly recovered. “Mr. Lin’s meeting will begin in an hour. There is still time.”
An Nuan glanced at Secretary Shi.
The smile on her face did not reach her eyes.
An Nuan always knew that this secretary liked her husband. But to pull something like this was too much.
Secretary Shi should know her boundaries.
“Mrs. Lin, please, come in.” Lu Zheng stepped aside to let An Nuan into the room.
As she stood at the entrance, An Nuan could see Lin Xiao Feng sitting on his chair while looking at something on his computer. He knocked on the door to get his attention and saw his expression brightened up.
“Nuan Nuan?” Lin Xiao Feng stood up. “What brings you here? Why didn’t you tell me you’re coming over?” His expression showed that he was excited to see his wife coming over.
Lu Zheng shut the door as tacitly as An Nuan walked into the room.
“I’m worried that someone is skipping lunch.” An Nuan raised the takeaway paper bag in her hand. “Lin Xiao Feng, have you eaten?”
Lin Xiao Feng glanced at the coffee table anxiously. There was a bag of takeaway food on the table. “Well, Lu Zheng bought some sandwiches earlier but I haven’t got the time to eat yet. I was planning to eat them later.”
An Nuan raised a brow. “Later? I heard from Assistant Lu that you have a meeting later. Lin Xiao Feng, are you planning to eat after your meeting?” The corner of her lips tilted to a smile as she continued to stare at Lin Xiao Feng.
After a few seconds, Lin Xiao Feng cleared his throat and looked away.
His wife was smiling sweetly at him but Lin Xiao Feng felt that the smile looked too dangerous.
“Nuan Nuan, I was wrong,” Lin Xiao Feng quickly admitted his mistake. He held An Nuan’s hand and pulled her over to the coffee table. “Let’s eat.” He took the bag from An Nuan and peeked into it. His stomach started to grumble as the smell of food wafted into his nose.
The sandwich that Lu Zheng brought for him was forgotten at the side.
“I had the same fried rice during the meal with my mentor earlier,” An Nuan said. “It tasted good.”
Lin Xiao Feng paused. “That’s right. How was your meeting with your mentor? Is everything going well?” He knew that his wife was going to reject her mentor’s invitation and Lin Xiao Feng was worried about how the old man would react to the news. “Your mentor… is he angry?”
He knew how happy An Nuan was when her mentor was looking for her. Lin Xiao Feng did not want the teacher and student’s relationship to turn sour again. It will only make his wife upset.
