Lu An’s ears went numb. He could hear Jin Nian’s gentle breathing and her gentle words. He gave no special reaction. He even looked at her calmly.
Jin Nian felt guilty under his gaze, “Lu An, if you dare to laugh at me, I’ll never talk to you again!”
Lu An did not argue with her, which was rare. He pulled her into his arms and gently kissed her forehead: “It’s very late. Go to bed early.” Why would he laugh at her? It was too late to cherish her.
It was a long night, and Lu An could not suppress the enthusiasm and surprise in his heart. He was not a male chauvinist deep down, nor was he a traditional and old-fashioned man, even if she had really done something with someone else, it was normal.
However, when he heard her say that she did not, Lu An was consumed by his possessiveness. He could only watch her carefully while she slept. He treated Jin Nian like a precious treasure and kissed her carefully again and again.
Jin Nian did not expect to sleep so well in an unfamiliar environment. She did not find it strange to sleep on the same bed as Lu An. When the two of them went to kindergarten, they would often squeeze onto the same bed to sleep.
At that time, Xie He had gone on a business trip, and Lu An had been placed at his grandmother’s house. She was so addicted to mahjong that she often forgot to eat and let Lu An play by himself.
Jin Nian often saw Lu An squatting alone by the roadside pitifully. She could not help but go up and tease him. She wanted to make him feel better, so she used the pocket money she had saved up for a week to buy him an Ultraman card.
After the two children gradually became familiar with each other, Jin Nian often generously invited Lu An: “Anan, why don’t you come to our house as a guest? We can have dinner together tonight and sleep together. Mom told me a new fairy tale yesterday. I’ll tell you tonight!”
Lu An had never mentioned to Jin Nian that her sleeping posture was really terrible. At night, she kept kicking the blanket and then clamped the blanket with her legs. She did not cover herself nor did she let others cover her. However, Lu An was already used to it.
The next morning, the two of them opened their eyes at about the same time and went to the bathroom to wash up. There were two basins and a large mirror above the sink. Jin Nian looked up and saw Lu An brushing his teeth beside her.
This scene made her subconsciously recall the year when Lu An and Xie He had a conflict and left home, temporarily staying at her house. At that time, the two of them had grown up. Naturally, they could not squeeze into the same bed as when they were young. Teacher Tan had specially tidied up the study at home, and Lu An had slept there for more than six months.
Jin Nian would wake up late. Every day, when she opened her eyes, she would see that it was not long before she was late. Lu An was already dressed neatly. She rushed into the bathroom to brush her teeth and did not forget to tell Lu An to wait for her to go out.
Now, it was not long before Jin Nian had to clock in for work. Although she did not laze in bed today, it would take at least 40 minutes to get to her company from here due to the morning rush hour traffic jam. Jin Nian hurriedly put on her makeup. There were some brand new makeup products on the sink in the bathroom. They were all the popular brand name basic styles. There was basically no mistake.
Jin Nian decided to put on a simple no makeup makeup look today. It did not require much skill or time. After putting on her makeup and washing her hands with soap, the image of Lu An helping her clean her fingers last night suddenly popped up in Jin Nian’s mind. Her heart beat faster and she forced herself to forget about these things as soon as possible.
“Do you want noodles or soy milk and fried donuts for breakfast?” Lu An asked her while holding his phone.
“I’m not eating. I’m not hungry yet.” Jin Nian was in a hurry to put on her makeup. The mirrors here did not have the light like the ones at home. She felt that she could not find the right place to put on her eyeliner, so she decided to skip that.
“You don’t eat breakfast?” Lu An frowned slightly, “I’ll find you a housekeeper today. You can go to work after breakfast in the future.”
“There’s no need to go through so much trouble! I won’t come over to live here in the future. I can sleep at least half an hour more every day at my place!”
Lu An wanted to ask her to quit her job, but he swallowed his words. Forget it, she could do whatever she wanted.
“Then I’ll see if I can buy a suite near your company so that you won’t be in a hurry every morning.”
“I didn’t do anything to deserve that. I don’t want you to help me buy a house.”
“I have to remind you again that it’s only right for a husband to spend his money on his wife.” Halfway through brushing his teeth, Lu An put down his toothbrush and tilted his head to look at Jin Nian. The white foam in his mouth had a minty chill to it. He frowned slightly, like a fish spitting bubbles.
“I just paid next year’s rent a few days ago. It’s a pity not to stay.” Jin Nian explained.
Lu An looked reluctant, “That place is not comfortable.”
“Why do you feel uncomfortable? I’m living great there.”
“You’ve always been easy to satisfy..”
