It was probably because she had squatted for too long and did not have breakfast before rushing over. Moreover, she did not sleep well last night, so she had low blood pressure when she stood up suddenly. Soon, she felt her mouth become dry; it was extremely uncomfortable.
She leaned against Han Qing for a while, trying hard to force a smile. “I’m fine. My legs were numb just now. Don’t worry about me.”
Han Qing lowered his head to look at her.
“What? What’s wrong?” Yan felt her scalp going numb from looking into his fiery eyes while she stammered out a question.
In the next second, Yan seemed to hear a deep sigh from him as he said, “Pass me the phone.”
Yan was uncertain about Han Qing’s plan, but still passed the phone to him. He took the phone and stuffed it inside his pocket, then carried Yan princess-style.
“Ah!” Yan was startled. Both her fair and tender arms hugged his neck reflexively while she screamed in shock.
“What’s wrong?”
Yan could smell the faint smell of toothpaste when she was close to him. Hmm, did he just get up not too long ago? So, did he brush his teeth before or after he saw the message?
As if he could read her thoughts, Han Qing exclaimed, “Next time, give me a call before you come. I can pick you up. You came rushing here by yourself without giving me a call first. How long would you need to wait here if I got delayed by something?”
“I… No, I only waited for a couple of minutes.”
“The message was sent ten minutes ago and you say it’s only been a couple of minutes? Do you think I’m so easily tricked?”
Unexpectedly, Yan saw Han Qing’s face turning black while his tone sounded serious. Yan panicked a little as she had made him upset even though they just started dating.
“I’m sorry, I won’t do that again. Don’t be angry…” Yan immediately hugged his neck tightly after saying that while hiding her head in the crook of his neck. She then whispered, “I was scared that I’d interrupt you because I planned to come in the afternoon, but… I came early instead. I was worried that you might still be in bed, so… you don’t have to worry. The sun didn’t burn me. I’m fine waiting here for over ten minutes.”
Han Qing’s heart softened as his gaze became warmer when the young lady rubbed softly against him and whispered near his neck.
“Next time, you can just call me when you’re coming. Since we’re already in a relationship, there’s no need to be so cautious.” Han Qing walked in with her in his arms after saying that. Yan realized the place was not far away from his villa. She did not barge in because she was unsure which unit it was.
It felt so unreal to her to be in Han Qing’s arms. She felt as if she was floating again. It was only when Han Qing put her down and she touched the sofa that she felt she had returned to reality.
However, Yan soon realized she was still wearing her shoes and she immediately removed them while getting up to put her shoes on the shoe rack. She felt a little dizzy after standing up. If possible, she would try not to stay up late and maintain a healthy lifestyle by waking up early and having breakfast. She never thought her body would become so weak.
Han Qing suddenly voiced out while she was thinking, “Come here.”
Yan came back to her senses and reached out to pinch her forehead. She then turned around and walked over.
“Let’s have breakfast together,” Han Qing said.
Yan replied, “It’s fine. I had breakfast before I came.” She was embarrassed to let him know that she came to see him before she had breakfast. Moreover, she did not sleep well last night. She would definitely be laughed at like this.
However, her body condition was reflected on her face and it was obvious. Han Qing remained silent for a moment and changed his approach. “Since you’ve already eaten, then you can just accompany me to eat a little more.”
Yan did not know how to reply for a moment. That doesn’t seem like a bad idea. She blinked and nodded her head, then proceeded to follow Han Qing to have breakfast together.
Han Qing prepared breakfast himself, and he prohibited Yan from going into the kitchen when she wanted to help. She could only wait obediently at the dining table and watch the figure of a tall, busy man in the kitchen through the glass door.
Han Qing put on an apron. Although the apron was gray, it added a lot of different elements to this man. Yan suddenly felt that they were getting closer.
The Han Qing dressed in a suit in the office gave her a mighty feel, but he was also distanced. However, a homely man like this felt different. Yan could not help herself and wanted to take her phone out to take a picture of Han Qing. She only realized her phone was in Han Qing’s pocket when she was searching for it. She was a little frustrated. If she knew earlier that this would happen, she would not have handed him her phone. That way, she would be able to sneakily take a few pictures.
Time passed unknowingly and breakfast was ready. Yan did not expect that he would be the one making breakfast for her. She was a little shy and her face was blushed when she was sipping the milk.
Han Qing suddenly asked casually, “Have you told Muzi about us?”
“Ah?” Yan was stunned for a moment. She was not able to react as she did not expect him to ask her such a question.
“Oh right, we just confirmed our relationship yesterday. You wouldn’t be able to tell her this soon even if you wanted to.”
Upon hearing this, Yan unconsciously grabbed onto the cup tightly; she looked hesitant as she bit her lower lip. She actually did not plan to tell Han Muzi about her and Han Qing so soon as she was still uncertain if Han Qing got together with her because he liked her. He might have taken a little liking to her, but she was uncertain if their relationship would last.
After thinking about it, Yan spoke softly, “About that… I think it’s better if we don’t tell Muzi right away.”
“Huh?” Han Qing paused his hands and looked at her.
Yan explained awkwardly, “Since Muzi is your sister and I’m her good friend, she has always hoped we’d get together. If we tell her now, she’ll surely be happy, but if in the future…”
Yan did not complete her sentence intelligibly. She paused for a moment and then continued, “If something happens in the future… I’m afraid she’d be sad for us.”
There was a moment of silence. Han Qing understood what she wanted to say and he narrowed his eyes slightly; he looked at Yan without saying anything. His stern gaze made her back stiffen while she bit her lip lightly. She drank a sip of milk while at a loss, but she accidentally spilled the milk on herself because she drank it too quickly due to her nervousness.
“Ah!” Yan gave a scream and immediately stood up, but she ended up accidentally knocking into the juice beside her. The milk and juice were then spilled all over her.
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” Yan was in a mess after the juice and milk spilled on her. Why did I… do something so stupid?
Han Qing strode over and wiped her down with a napkin, but it was already too late. Her white T-shirt was soaked from the milk, and the slightly damp shirt was pressed against her body, revealing her graceful lines.
