Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 49 - : Backing Away with Arms Crossed
Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Backing Away with Arms Crossed
Without clothes, she was just waiting inside? Didn’t she know it’s humid inside the bathroom after she had just taken a shower?
His face stern, he took a set of pajamas out of the wardrobe.
This was the room prepared for Lu Wanwan, and necessities like clothes had been ready since this morning. Why didn’t this blockhead go out to check?
“Open the door.”
Lu Wanwan held the bath towel with one hand and hesitated with the other on the doorknob.

She looked down at herself and thought, opening the door like this wouldn’t be very proper.
...
“Lu Wanwan!” Gu Annan frowned impatiently, “The clothes can’t just walk in by themselves if you don’t open the door, can they?”
Lu Wanwan cautiously cracked the door open just a bit, hiding her body behind it and only sticking out her head with a forced expression.
When she looked up and met Gu Annan’s disparaging look, she squeezed out a strained grin and stretched out an arm, “Thank you.”
But then she thought, he was the wealthy patron, after all, how could she expect such thorough service from him?
Her arm extended a bit more determinedly, she had to fend for herself if she wanted to be clothed and fed!
Gu Annan watched her hesitant, embarrassed demeanor and just as her fingertips were about to touch the clothes, he withdrew his hand.
At the same time, he forcefully opened the bathroom door wide, deliberately exposing her in full view, and her face instantly flushed to the root of her ears.
“Gu Annan!!” Lu Wanwan yelled frantically, hugging her chest and taking a big step back, afraid that the towel would fall off.
She still couldn’t shake off the image of Gu Annan standing like the statue of David, exposed in front of her, from their last encounter at his house.
If it were her, she definitely couldn’t be as composed as he was!
Suddenly, the clothes were rudely tossed onto her, and as Lu Wanwan looked up after catching them, she realized that Gu Annan had already left.
She rubbed her face in irritation, realizing she had thought too much.
She had been worried about accidentally exposing herself, but he clearly wasn’t interested in looking…
Gu Annan’s face was tightly drawn, a barely perceptible heat on his handsome face, and his breathing was somewhat fast.
Just as he opened the bedroom door, he encountered Auntie Li carrying in the brewed ginger tea.
“Young Master, the ginger tea for Miss Lu is ready.” Auntie Li was slightly surprised to see him coming out of this room.
Gu Annan quickly turned his head away and continued walking without stopping, dropping a sentence behind him, “Bring it in. After she drinks it, tell her to come to me.”
Auntie Li watched his slightly hurried figure with curiosity. The young master didn’t seem very composed; his face was stern, yet it wasn’t the kind of grimness that came with a bad mood.
The young master was indeed becoming stranger lately.

Watching Lu Wanwan finish the ginger tea, Auntie Li said with a smile, “If Miss Lu feels rested, you can go to the young master’s room, he’s waiting for you in the bedroom.”
He’s waiting for you in the bedroom…
That phrase inexplicably made her nervous, her heart thumping wildly. She accidentally choked on a sip, spraying the tea onto her clothes.
Auntie Li was calm, immediately getting another piece, “Please change into this, Miss Lu.”
Lu Wanwan felt defeated by her own recent neuroticism as she looked at the stain on her clothes, “Auntie Li, this piece of clothing… it’s quite expensive, isn’t it?”
“Miss Lu, a piece of clothing means nothing to the young master,” Auntie Li said for the first time someone at the Gu Family was concerned about the matter of money, “As long as you’re happy, the young master wouldn’t give it a second thought.”
Lu Wanwan felt she must have said something wrong; it should be about Gu Annan being happy, but when had that icy face ever shown happiness?
