Meanwhile, Lin Mubai accompanied Xi Shaoqi and An Jiayou home and has been sitting in the living room ever since.
He didn’t do anything, only quietly waited for a certain little woman to wake up.
Ten minutes, twenty minutes, one hour, two hours.
Finally, at half past nine in the morning, there was movement in the room. Lin Mubai instantly sat up straight, his eyes fixed unblinkingly on the master bedroom door.
An Nan woke up from a refreshing nap but couldn’t fall back asleep, so she simply got up to find something to do. After freshening up, she stepped out of the room and met a pair of eyes with heavy dark circles. The accumulated anger in a corner of her heart instantly dissipated, yet she still didn’t want to engage with him.
She then directly avoided the intense gaze, turned around, and walked into the kitchen.
Upon seeing her enter the kitchen, Lin Mubai quickly stood up from the sofa and followed. At the kitchen door, Lin Mubai stood anxiously, uncertain about whether he should step inside or continue standing there. He truly couldn’t fathom the thoughts of the woman before him.
Suddenly, he felt that women’s thoughts were more complex than business matters.
With her back to the kitchen door, An Nan, even without turning around, knew someone was behind her. Before feeling unnatural, she perked up the corners of her mouth. Then a faint voice reached the other’s ears: "I’m a bit hungry. Is there anything to eat?"
The person standing at the door was initially stunned, then quickly stepped into the kitchen: "Yes, yes, I made the vegetarian buns you like early in the morning, along with fried dumplings and prepared soy milk..."
Lin Mubai’s hand continued to take out the food kept warm in the steamer, but the next moment was stopped by An Nan’s outstretched hand, her voice carrying a light smile: "That’s enough, don’t take out so much. I can’t eat it all."
The next moment, the man looked up in surprise at her: "Nannan, you’re not angry anymore, are you?"
An Nan didn’t directly answer him, only picked up a fried dumpling and put it in her mouth, warning indistinctly: "If it happens again, we’ll see."
Walking out of the room, seeing the man looking at her with an anxious expression, she suddenly understood. If this man didn’t love her, he wouldn’t put himself in such a compromising position. With his looks, he’d have women following him everywhere.
Hearing An Nan’s words, the gloom in Lin Mubai’s heart instantly dissipated, replaced by a silly smile. An Nan saw him and couldn’t help but roll her eyes again: "Enough, man, do you know that’s really disgraceful? I prefer seeing your usual heroic demeanor."
Lin Mubai quickly etched her words into his heart: "Alright, I understand. An Nan, can I hug you?" This was what he most wanted to do at that moment, though he feared An Nan might get angry, which made him restless.
"Of course you can, we’re a couple, aren’t we?" As soon as the words fell, she took the initiative to extend her arms.
