Lu Jinnian didn't react .

His a.s.sistant stayed silent, carefully leaving the ginger tea on the table .

Even though his a.s.sistant's actions were soft, the porcelain cup still made a sound when it touched the table .

Lu Jinnian turned his head at it . He raised his hand, bringing the cigarette to his mouth to take a long puff, and stared out through the full length window . He extinguished his cigarette before turning to his desk . He raised the cup with a single hand and took a gulp . The spicy sensation stayed in his mouth for a long time until he seemed to have recalled something . Quietly, he looked at his a.s.sistant who was already at the door .

"Anymore?"

His a.s.sistant stopped, realizing after a moment that Lu Jinnian was referring to the ginger tea . a.s.suming that he wanted to drink some, he immediately nodded . "I'll go pour more . "

Lu Jinnian said a light "yes" before lowering his head to blow at his tea and sipping some more . In a barely audible tone, he said, "Bring some to room 5231 . "

His a.s.sistant paused momentarily . 'Who stays in room 5231?' he wondered .

Seeing that his a.s.sistant was still in a daze, Lu Jinnian lifted his head to sweep a cold glance accross him . "Say it's an arrangement from the crew . "

The a.s.sistant understood Lu Jinnian's meaning instantly, replying with a "ah" before exiting the room .

It took him about five minutes to return after delivering the ginger tea .

Lu Jinnian sat in his chair, the cup of ginger tea in his hand still emitting heat . As soon as he heard the door open, he looked at his a.s.sistant nonchalantly, asking lightly, "Have you delivered it?"

"Yes . " His a.s.sistant hesitated before explaining the situation . "But Miss Qiao was not in her room, her a.s.sistant Miss Zhao Meng took it for her . "

Lu Jinnian frowned slightly before lowering his head to take a slow sip of his ginger tea . Before he could swallow it, he heard his a.s.sistant continue .

"Miss Zhao mentioned that producer Sun wanted to discuss a new role with her so she is playing cards with him downstairs . "

Lu Jinnian's actions suddenly stopped and he clenched his cup of tea tightly . He stared into the cup coldly and, after about two seconds, he forced down the ginger tea as though nothing had happened . He nodded his head slightly .

"I understand . " Lu Jinnian paused for a bit, then continued, "You can go back for today . "

A long time after his a.s.sistant left the room, Lu Jinnian placed the porcelain cup back on the desk . He looked out the window with a cold expression for a time before taking out his phone . His fingers flew across the screen, sending a text out .
