“Where are we?”

Shen Tinglan’s voice was low and hoarse, but it was cold and calm.

“We’re about to get off the highway… Young Master, the rain is too heavy. We might have to wait a while before returning to Canglan Bridge. Moreover, there’s a traffic jam at Canglan Bridge, so…”

Of course, the chauffeur in front had been paying attention to the road conditions. He could also accurately deduce the road conditions in front.

“Go to the Central of Wenlan.”

Before the chauffeur could finish his sentence, Shen Tinglan interrupted him. Under the dim light, his noble and handsome face was still calm, and his dark eyes were still silent, undisturbed, wise, and decisive. He did not seem impatient or frustrated at all because of the storm.

Central of Wenlan?

Wasn’t that where Miss Ming was?

Tang Feng seemed to have grasped something in an instant.

“Okay, Young Master! That place is indeed much closer to here, and there won’t be a traffic jam there!”

The chauffeur hurriedly replied in a clear voice.

…

Because there seemed to be a typhoon these few days and the weather wasn’t good, Ming Qianye could only ask Lou Che not to come to G University for the time being. She also wanted to return to Wenlan as soon as possible.

Ming Qianye left immediately after her classes today. When she returned to the Central of Wenlan, the sky was already dark.

She still insisted on marking the homework submitted by the students before starting to cook dinner.

Dinner for one person was naturally more casual. Ming Qianye planned to cook a bowl of noodles.

However, just as she took the ingredients out of the fridge, the doorbell rang.

She frowned, thinking that she had heard wrongly. It was so late at night, and it was such a windy night. How could anyone come looking for her? And not many people knew that she lived here!

Soon, Ming Qianye realized that she wasn’t hallucinating!

She walked over and was a little surprised when she saw the face on the video monitor beside the door…

It was Tang Feng!

Only then did she hurriedly open the door.

However, when she saw the face of the person standing in front of her, she was shocked!

Shen Tinglan!

Why was he here?

“Good evening, Miss Ming!”

Tang Feng quickly greeted her with a smile.

Ming Qianye nodded at him. There was still a hint of absent-mindedness and surprise in her clear eyes. She fixed his gaze on Shen Tinglan’s calm and handsome face and said in a low voice, “Why… are you here?”

Shen Tinglan glanced at her. His gaze was dark and unfathomable as he walked in.

“Make us something to eat.”

There was no trace of politeness in his deep voice.

Ming Qianye took a deep breath and felt a headache coming on.

Was she going to play the role of the Devil’s maid again?

Tang Feng’s eyes darted back and forth between the two of them a few times before he lowered his voice and said,

“Miss Ming, we just came back from the neighboring city and happened to encounter such a storm. The Canglan Bridge is very congested and it’s too far away. Young Master has just recovered in the past two days, so we can’t be too busy. Therefore, we came to rest for a while and wait for the typhoon to pass in two days! I’ll leave Young Master’s things here. Thank you in advance!”

Tang Feng was very observant. He immediately took Shen Tinglan’s suitcase and briefcase and placed them beside the cabinet. Then, he quickly left without waiting for Ming Qianye to say anything…

Ming Qianye looked at the man who had already walked in and then at the closed door. She could only take a deep breath and open the shoe cabinet at the side to take out a new pair of slippers for him.

“Change your shoes first…”

Shen Tinglan stopped in his tracks and turned his head slightly. His gaze swept across the slippers she handed over, but stopped on a pair of men’s shoes in the shoe cabinet…

A glimmer of light flashed across his eyes, and his calm and unfathomable gaze suddenly froze for two seconds. His indifferent lips curled into a cold smile. “There’s a guest at home?”

Ming Qianye didn’t react for a moment and went along with his words. “Isn’t there a guest now?”

“Who are you calling a guest?”

Shen Tinglan’s handsome face instantly turned cold, and there was a hint of coldness in his dark and unfathomable eyes. He coughed lightly and suppressed his emotions. The white handkerchief in his hand was already pressed against his mouth…

Ming Qianye looked at him and suddenly went up to him. She lifted the jacket that had slipped off his shoulders and bent over to put down the shoes for him. “You’re wet all over. Change your shoes and take a hot shower. You’ll feel more comfortable.”

At this moment, Shen Tinglan was also reaching out to hold her thin shoulders. Seeing how busy she was, he cooperated and changed his shoes. However, his gaze still subconsciously swept across the pair of shoes in the shoe cabinet, but he did not ask.

Ming Qianye took his suitcase and briefcase and opened them. She quickly took out his sleeping robe from the suitcase…

Shen Tinglan, on the other hand, looked around the entire house.

She had gotten this apartment from him back then. Although it was a little small, she seemed quite satisfied.

It was a few hundred square meters and had two suites. The view was not bad.

Ming Qianye originally wanted to take his luggage directly to the second bedroom, but she suddenly remembered that the second bedroom was already occupied by Lou Che, and there was no spare room here…

Moreover, the Devil had always needed to be served to be comfortable. Helpless, she could only look at him and explain, “Senior, why don’t you use my room for the time being? I’ve arranged the second bedroom for Lou Che… The Lou family is a little complicated. I don’t want to explain too much. I just don’t intend to let him go back like that.”

As soon as Ming Qianye finished speaking, Shen Tinglan retreated from the shoe rack. His unfathomable eyes seemed to contain a vast sea. He calmed down and glanced at her before walking over. He replied in a low voice, “Okay.”

Ming Qianye took a deep breath and had no choice but to move his things into her bedroom. She prepared hot water and a clean towel for him before letting him take a hot shower.

The Devil was a man of few words, but he was very cooperative and went straight into the bathroom to take a shower.

Ming Qianye returned to the kitchen.

Shen Tinglan came over, so it was definitely inappropriate for her to carry on with her plan to eat noodles.

Fortunately, there were still some ingredients in the fridge, so Ming Qianye cooked the rice.

It was quite easy to cook two portions.

She planned to make three dishes and a soup.

…

Shen Tinglan washed his hair comfortably and came out of the bathroom, feeling much warmer.

He sized up the master bedroom. It was exactly the same as before. Even the decorations he had placed were not moved. This room was originally his, and all the styles were according to his preferences. However, she did not change it at all. She really just carried her bag and moved in…

Perhaps it was because she was lazy!

She rarely spent time on these things. The entire room was clean and spotless, just like her.
