Tong An'an drove, and Jiang Jingyu held her hand, and the two returned home like this.
Although she was nervous on the road and could manage, Tong An'an absolutely dared not park the car.
There were luxury cars on both sides, and she was afraid of hitting someone else's.
Jiang Jingyu didn't say anything to her, but looked at her gently, "Move the seat back."
"Ah?"
"Listen to me, move it back."
Pressing the electric button, he moved the seat back a bit and said, "Keep moving it."
Tong An'an stretched her legs to show him, "If you move it any further, I won't be able to reach the accelerator."
"Just move it when I tell you to."
Moving back a few more centimeters, Jiang Jingyu saw that the space was wide enough, opened the passenger door, got out, and went around to the driver's side.
Tong An'an thought he was going to drive, so she quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jingyu pressed her shoulders and wanted to squeeze in with her.
"Move forward a bit, let me sit behind you."
Are you crazy?
They were already home, why weren't they getting out of the car? Why were they both squeezing in?
"What do you want to do?"
"Teach you how to park." Jiang Jingyu sat down, let Tong An'an sit in his arms, closed the door, took her hands and placed them on the steering wheel, gently stepped on the accelerator, and the car started moving.
Before Tong An'an could even figure out what was happening, the car was smoothly parked into the parking space by him.
"How does it feel?"
After parking, he deliberately leaned closer to her, his warm breath fanning her ear. Tong An'an felt her ears burning.
"Hurry up and get out. If someone sees us, they'll think we're doing something."
Jiang Jingyu loved seeing her blush. He hugged her contentedly and got out of the car.
The two seemed to have known each other for a long time. Without much preamble, their intimacy felt natural.
You see, it had only been a few hours from his confession to establishing their relationship. As they took the elevator upstairs, he held Tong An'an's hand tightly, already like a couple in love.
Jiang Jingyu only wished the elevator would move slower. It reached Tong An'an's floor in just a few seconds.
Tong An'an went out, and he followed, accompanying her into the apartment, feeding the cat. Tong An'an urged him to go home.
"It's getting late. You have to work tomorrow, and you've been drinking. You should rest quickly."
Jiang Jingyu really liked looking at her. How could she be so well-behaved, gentle, and cute? The more he looked at her, the more he wanted to pet her.
"Okay, I'll go. But before I leave, can I get some perks?"
What did "get some perks" mean?
Tong An'an looked at him, confused.
Jiang Jingyu looked back at her with burning eyes.
Just as their lips were about to touch, Tong An'an's heart raced, and she turned her face away.
"It's too fast. Give me a moment to adjust."
It had indeed only been a few hours, and she didn't understand anything. It was inevitable that she would be nervous.
Jiang Jingyu didn't force her. He pinched her cheek again. "Alright. Lock the door, and text me after you shower. I'll head back first."
The two said goodbye reluctantly. Watching him enter the elevator, Tong An'an locked the door, covered her chest, leaned against the door, and smiled so wide her mouth almost reached her ears.
So this was what falling in love felt like.
She was actually dating the big boss...
It was more troublesome for girls to shower, as they had to wash and blow-dry their hair, and also do simple skincare.
After completing the entire routine, she realized Jiang Jingyu had texted her more than ten minutes ago.
Lying in bed, she quickly replied to him, "I'm done showering."
Jiang Jingyu sent a sad emoji.
"I thought you regretted it. You didn't reply for so long, I was so anxious I almost went down to find you."
"How could I? Since I promised, I'll definitely keep my word. If I regretted it, I would have told you in advance."
The two had countless things to talk about, shifting from one topic to another. They had gone to bed before ten o'clock, but they were still awake past midnight.
This had already severely exceeded Tong An'an's designated sleep time. Seeing that it was almost 12:30, she urged Jiang Jingyu.
"It's time to sleep. Otherwise, you'll have dark circles tomorrow. No more talking, put down your phone, and go to sleep quickly."
Jiang Jingyu said okay and bid her goodnight. However, he didn't put down his phone. Instead, he turned to text Ge'er.
"Buy me a set of your usual skincare products. I need it tomorrow."
Ge'er, a night owl, saw this and replied instantly.
"A few days ago, I posted on Moments about a mysterious anniversary, and I knew you were dating. You didn't even reply to my comment! You finally couldn't hold back, wanting to show off? Confess, who is it? How long have you been dating?"
Knowing that if he started talking to her, it would never end, Jiang Jingyu simply played dead, turned off his phone, and ignored her.
Ge'er, as if discovering a new continent, sent a screenshot of their chat to the Zhan family group chat.
"Rejoice universally, Jiang Jingyu's iron tree has bloomed! Daddy, Mommy, come and see!"
Since Lu Jiaying's death, Jiang Jingyu's romantic life had been a sensitive topic for the family.
A few days ago, he suddenly posted on Moments about an anniversary, and Ge'er and Tiantian both guessed he had someone.
But he didn't reply to their WeChat messages or comments on his posts.
Seeing him say these things today, everyone finally confirmed it was true and was happy for him.
Zhan Beijue immediately transferred 50,000 yuan to Ge'er.
"Deliver what he wants to his office first thing tomorrow. Thank you for your trouble."
Because she slept late and was in a good mood, she had a sweet dream and overslept in the morning.
She didn't even hear the alarm when it rang. Tong An'an only woke up when Jiang Jingyu knocked on her door.
Looking at the time, she realized she was too late.
She quickly washed up, changed her clothes, and left with him.
Jiang Jingyu always arrived at the company right on time, so this time they didn't even have time to eat breakfast.
On the way, Tong An'an felt very embarrassed.
"I'm sorry. I told you not to chat so late, otherwise you wouldn't be able to wake up in the morning. I don't know if the company still has breakfast. If not, ask Assistant Zhang to buy you something..."
Jiang Jingyu thought to himself: I'm the boss, after all. No one would say anything if I ate during work hours. You should worry about yourself.
The two arrived at the underground garage, just as various senior executives were arriving at the company one after another.
After parking the car, they got out together and headed for the elevator. On the way, they encountered many senior executives who greeted Jiang Jingyu and cast curious glances at Tong An'an.
They wondered who this woman was and why she was coming to work with the boss.
Jiang Jingyu acted as if no one else was around. In the elevator, he stayed close to Tong An'an and told her to go to his office after clocking in.
Although Tong An'an didn't recognize most of the senior executives, she remembered the two she had interviewed.
Seeing Jiang Jingyu say such things to her in front of them, she felt quite embarrassed.
She glared at him with her eyes, asking him to be low-key. Jiang Jingyu finally fell silent.
Arriving at the sales department floor, Tong An'an didn't even say goodbye to him. She squeezed through the crowd and ran out.
Everyone went to their respective offices amidst a strange silence.
Zhang Yang had already arrived at the President's office and had completed all the preparations. Jiang Jingyu's coffee was also brewed.
