"No, I’ll walk by myself." Lu Xingzhi tidied up a bit before heading downstairs.
Huo Jincheng had the kitchen prepare her favorite fresh meat wontons. She hadn’t had them for half a month. Surely, she would want to eat them.
Besides that, there were crab roe buns and golden shrimp balls, all her favorite breakfast items.
Originally, Lu Xingzhi didn’t want to eat, but seeing them, her appetite came back.
Watching her eat, Huo Jincheng then asked, "Are you full yet?"
"Yes, I’m full." Lu Xingzhi felt a bit embarrassed, having claimed to have no appetite but ended up eating so much.
"Do you still want to sleep?" Huo Jincheng moved to her side, took a napkin, and wiped her lips.
Lu Xingzhi blinked her innocent black eyes like a small deer, her gaze rippling as she looked at him, "Thank you!"
"Do you still want to sleep?" Huo Jincheng asked again.
"In a while!" Lu Xingzhi was still staring at Huo Jincheng, a bit dazed.
The first time she saw Huo Jincheng, she knew he was handsome, like a sun god stepping out of the light. Even after so long, she still felt that he was flawless, perfect from every angle.
Especially when he looked at you so tenderly, it was almost impossible to resist.
"Am I good-looking?" Huo Jincheng asked her.
"Then take a good look."
Huo Jincheng’s smile deepened, his handsome face magnified slightly in front of her.
At least there was something to attract his little treasure.
"I’ll take you upstairs to rest." Huo Jincheng held her hand.
Lu Xingzhi didn’t refuse, letting him lead her.
They only stopped at her bedroom door.
Seeing her spaced out, Huo Jincheng said, "Should I join you in the room to sleep?"
Lu Xingzhi answered foolishly, then realized what she had just said.
"Really?" Huo Jincheng asked with amusement.
"Anyway, the entire mansion is yours, you can stay wherever you want." Lu Xingzhi agreed, but with a hint of defiance.
"Then I’ll go in with peace of mind." Huo Jincheng opened the door, took the initiative, and went in first.
Seeing Lu Xingzhi still standing at the doorway, he teasingly raised an eyebrow and asked, "Not coming in? Afraid I’ll eat you up?"
"I’m not." Lu Xingzhi went in. It was a large room, but with Huo Jincheng there, she felt inexplicably crowded.
Huo Jincheng sat on the edge of the bed, propping his chin and looking at her, "Zhi Zhi, didn’t you want to sleep? Can you sleep standing up?"
"I’ll sleep now." Lu Xingzhi felt Huo Jincheng’s face was too enchanting, which was why she agreed to him coming in. No wonder so many women in Hua Country wanted to marry him.
Last night when she went to sleep, she saw a video interview of Huo Jincheng. He only showed a side profile, not even clearly. Yet this effect of a partially hidden beauty made people more curious about his full appearance.
Just that half profile was enough to make people’s hearts itch.
In the video, Huo Jincheng publicly revealed he had a fiancée, and when he mentioned his fiancée, his voice noticeably softened, filled with emotion.
She then thought of what her roommates said, that when they were together, Huo Jincheng’s eyes were full of her, and his tenderness was overwhelming.
Now, he was looking at her the same way, and she couldn’t help but ask, "Uncle, do you like me?"
