When she pa.s.sed by a stall selling egg waffles, the rich milky fragrance made Jin Nian swallow hard. Before she could say that she wanted to eat this, Lu An had already asked for a serving from the locals in fluent Cantonese.
Jin Nnian moved closer to Lu An’s side and spoke to him in a low voice like a parrot who was learning to speak.
Lu An’s smile widened. ’’Awesome.”
Jin Nian said proudly, “Ain’t 1 great? As expected, I have a talent for languages!”
“Yes, but not particularly many.”
“Bah.”
The egg waffle had just been baked and was still warm. Jin Nian took two bites before giving it to Lu An.
It wasn’t that the egg waffle wasn’t delicious, but she was afraid that she would have no appet.i.te for the rest of the food after eating too many.
Therefore, Lu An had all kinds of food that Jin Nian had eaten in a short time. They ranged from fish b.a.l.l.s to soft pineapple buns, to egg tarts, a cup of Hong Kong-style milk tea, and a small bowl of shark fin soup.
Lu An usually wouldn’t touch these foods because he wasn’t very interested in them. Since Jin Nian was fond of these dishes, Lu An also took a bite of each of them. However, he didn’t finish them later.
He couldn’t just casually finish all these. Otherwise, if his hard eight-pack abs disappeared, who would he find to compensate?
The other things could be gotten with money but his excellent eight-pack abs were the figure he planned to maintain until he became old.
That was because Jin Nian liked the figure very much.
Every night, Jin Nian’s hand would touch Lu An’s abdominal muscles. Since that was the case, Lu An couldn’t disappoint Jin Nian.
Lu An wasn’t an extremely self-disciplined person in his daily work and life. But as long as it was his goal, he would always complete and reach it.
After eating in the night market, Lu An brought Jin Nian to Victoria Harbor.
After living in Hong Kong for a long time, one might feel a little bored. However, this was Jin Nian’s first time in Hong Kong. Everything here was new and full of curiosity.
Even though nothing here was attractive to Lu An, Jin Nian liked it. As long as Jin Nian liked it, he would patiently stay by her side, introduce her to the local customs, and recommend suitable routes for her.
At this moment, the night breeze blew over with a little saltiness from the ocean. Jin Nian was held in Lu An’s arms as she watched the night gradually darken, but the lights in front of her continued to shine. The unpleasant memories of coming to Hong Kong alone that year seemed to have been repainted. The gray memories were now painted with colors.
She began to like Hong Kong, the place where Lu An had grown up.
The night was still young. There were still many places in Hong Kong that she had not set foot in. There were still many places that she wanted to go.
Jin Nian’s life was rich and colorful today. At this moment, she was yawning in Lu An’s arms.
“Are you sleepy?” Lu An lowered his head and asked softly.
“A little.” Jin Nian nodded honestly.
“Are we going home now?”
Jin Nian was a little reluctant to part with the scenery in front of her. “But I still want to walk around a little longer.”
“Little fool, we can stay here for a while longer as long as you want. Then we can go anywhere you like.”
“How long do you plan to stay?” Jin Nian was a little excited.
“Of course, it depends on you. We can stay for one more day or even one month.”
“Let’s go visit your grandmother tomorrow.”
“Alright.”
“Teacher Tan said that according to etiquette, I should meet your father.”
“Don’t bother about him.”
“Lu An, 1 want to meet your father. 1 haven’t met him yet.”
“Okay.”
On the way back, Jin Nian still fell asleep. She fell into Lu An’s arms and slept soundly like a child.
This time, she continued Lu An’s previous dream in her sleep.
She dreamed that she went to Hong Kong alone when she was seventeen and called him. As soon as she saw him, she kissed him impulsively.
The two of them were a little confused. Jin Nian was a little better, but she wasn’t much better than Lu An. Lu An seemed even calmer than Jin Nian.
In the dream, Jin Nian mustered up her courage and took a deep breath. She asked, “Do you like me? Even if it’s just a little.”
Lu An didn’t react in time. He just nodded in a daze.
It was not just a little bit, but a lot..
