"Hurry up and check the news, the internet is flooded with Li Chuxia’s scandalous photos. What should we do, I’m so excited, I feel like worshipping the hero who leaked the photos."
Manman stretched lazily on the bed, her smile was lecherous: "No need to worship me, just treat me to a big meal."
Han Xi almost spat out the toothpaste foam in her mouth: "Don’t tell me you were the one who posted those photos online."
Manman nodded with a small smug expression, then realized Han Xi couldn’t see her, and spoke into the phone: "I had someone track Li Chuxia. I didn’t expect this woman to be so unrestrained; she’s almost engaged and still playing wild. I want to see how Shi Yu’s going to arrange this marriage now."
Han Xi was a bit speechless. Why are you tracking people for no reason?
"Oh, remember to come early tonight. You mustn’t be late for my grandma’s birthday celebration." Manman turned over in bed, yawning and ready to go back to sleep.
After hanging up the phone, Han Xi wiped the toothpaste foam from the corner of her mouth, leaned down to splash water on her face, squeezed out some face wash and rubbed it into bubbles, then started washing her face. After rinsing, she dried her face with a towel and heard the doorbell ring.
She walked to the door, opened it, and her expression became momentarily complicated: "Mr. Lu... why are you here?"
And how did he know she lived here?
Lu Jinghan stood tall and leaning against the doorframe, wearing black ankle-length trousers, a white shirt with a navy blue casual blazer, and white sneakers, his sensuous lips holding a deep smile.
"Doctor Han, not planning to let me in?"
Han Xi hesitated a little because, whenever they were alone before, something ambiguous always seemed to happen. She was a bit concerned.
"Mr. Lu, do you have any particular business?" Han Xi stood at the door, without any intention of letting him in.
Lu Jinghan waved the thermos flask and paper bag in front of Han Xi: "I brought you breakfast." Not giving Han Xi a chance to speak, Lu Jinghan had already pushed the door and entered.
"Do you have any men’s slippers?"
"Uh... no." Han Xi was a bit stunned, this man was too attentive.
"It’s good that there aren’t any, proves no man has been here."
Lu Jinghan glanced sideways at Han Xi standing by, her clean little face was makeup-free, her seaweed-like long hair draped over her slender back, wearing light pink pajamas.
Han Xi felt a bit uneasy under his gaze, her cheeks slightly flushed. What’s wrong with her? Haven’t she always been calm around men?
Why is it different when encountering Lu Jinghan...
Seeing Han Xi’s reddened cheeks, Lu Jinghan’s eyes smiled as he spoke, "Got any women’s slippers, you can give me a pair of those too."
Han Xi said nothing, bent down to take out Manman’s slippers from the shoe cabinet, and placed them on the floor.
Lu Jinghan changed into the slippers, carrying his things to the dining area: "You go change clothes, then come to have breakfast."
Han Xi was still a bit spaced out, taking a few seconds before heading back to the bedroom to change.
When she came out, Lu Jinghan had already arranged breakfast. He looked up at Han Xi: "Hurry over and eat, it’ll get cold soon. If you don’t finish, you’ll have a stomach ache again."
Han Xi pulled out a chair and sat down at the dining table: "How did you know I had a stomach ache?"
"Jiang Dachuan is my bodyguard, he happened to see the stomach medicine in your hand when he helped you last night." Lu Jinghan glanced at Han Xi with a raised eyebrow: "Drink more porridge, it’s good for your stomach."
