Huo Lianqing lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She lay on the bed and stared at the lemon yellow floor lamp. The halo of yellow light in the room was like the lazy afternoon sun, causing people to feel a bit absent-minded. Huo Lianqing quietly got off the bed and opened the door. She looked across the room to see An Bowen. The door was tightly shut, as if she was resting.

At this moment, there was a pair of sharp eyes staring at her from behind the door of the study room. The corner of her mouth hooked into a charming smile. When Huo Lianqing got back to bed, she suddenly felt a little dispirited. The silk pillowcase gently caressed her smooth face. The cool and refreshing feeling was delicate and soft.

There was a storage room at the end of the second floor. From there, one could see the huge swimming pool downstairs through a large window. The morning sunlight shone down on it like gold and silver, sparkling and colorful. Huo Lianqing raised her hands to block the sunlight shining through the glass on her face. She squinted her eyes as she felt dizzy.

"Miss Huo, it's time for breakfast." Suddenly, there was someone speaking to her from behind. Huo Lianqing turned around and saw that it was Aunt Wang.

"Well, I'll go down, sir?" In the end, Huo Lianqing feigned indifference as she asked.

"Sir went out in the morning and hasn't returned yet." Madam Wang said expressionlessly.

When Huo Lianqing walked into the dining room, she was greeted by the fragrance of flowers and a large bouquet of Sword Orchids on the dining table. Huo Lianqing took a deep breath.

While eating breakfast alone, although he liked the cheese and jam, he found it boring. Huo Lian only ate a few bites before she reached out to touch the flower petals of the Sword Orchid. There were still some dewdrops on them, causing her to sigh lightly.

"What is it? Didn't sleep well last night? "Why are you so listless?" Huo Lianqing was startled when someone suddenly spoke up.

An Bowen had suddenly appeared behind her and was looking at her with a playful expression. Huo Lianqing paused for a moment, then stood up gracefully.

"Didn't you go out? You don't need to go to the company today? " Huo Lianqing smiled sweetly.

"How do you know I went out? Do you want me to go to the office today? What do you want me to do? " An Bowen looked at Huo Lianqing with a charming look on his face. A provocative smile was plastered on his face.

"I'm just casually asking. After all, I'm currently living in your home, so of course I have to know what the master here does every day." Huo Lianqing was still smiling elegantly without the slightest hint of embarrassment on her face.

An Bowen slowly walked to Huo Lianqing's side. A cold and clear scent filled her nose; it was like the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, faint and faint. When she felt his aura approaching her, Huo Lianqing felt like her ears were slightly burning. When she woke up in the morning, she was casually wearing a dark green dress with gold lace straps on her shoulders. She looked quiet and elegant.

An Bowen slightly narrowed his eyes, and his gaze fell on her fair and creamy shoulder. There seemed to be a small cluster of flames within his eyes that swept across it like a floating cloud. An Bowen walked around the table and sat down in the seat opposite to Huo Lianqing.

"Aunt Wang, prepare breakfast for me." His eyebrows raised as he smiled at her.

Huo Lianqing took off her napkin and turned to leave, but was stopped by An Bowen.

"Where are you going?"

"To my room, of course." Huo Lianqing's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he pretended to be innocent.

"You should sit down and eat with me." With one hand, Umbo picked up the cup of milk and took a sip.

Huo Lianqing knitted her brows as she turned around gracefully with a smile that was not a smile.

"Well, I think so, too."

An Bowen's face bloomed into a gentle, harmless smile. This smile went straight to the bottom of his eyes. He ate his breakfast while reading the newspaper. He looked very refined as he read the newspaper. Huo Lianqing sat there and tilted her head as she looked at him.

"What is it? Boring? What are you planning to do in the next few days? " An Bowen put down the newspaper in his hand and asked, as if he had felt Huo Lianqing's sharp gaze.

"It doesn't matter. We just need to pass the time." Huo Lianqing shrugged and said.

"No hobbies?" An Bowen lowered his head and continued reading his newspaper. Although Huo Lianqing had an elegant expression on her face, the anger in her heart had already risen. Did he really put her in front of him like a vase?

"Hobby, that's true …" "Well, I have a wide range of hobbies, but I don't want to do anything when I'm bored." There was already a hint of resentment in Huo Lianqing's words. An Bowen tilted his head and smiled at her, then suddenly stood up and walked over to her side. Huo Lianqing bent her body slightly and was immediately enveloped by a huge shadow.

"What do you want to do? I can accompany you today. " Huo Lianqing raised her head and looked at him. This man was so beautiful that even she, as a beauty, was jealous. Huo Lianqing let out a long breath as she placed one arm on the table and rested her chin on her other hand.

"What are you doing? Do you want to come? " Huo Lianqing's expression was that of a child's. There was no coldness or indifference in her eyes. Her eyes were filled with childish innocence and innocence.

An Bowen sat on the edge of the pool, leaning back leisurely. Looking at Huo Lianqing who was as nimble as a fish in water, a smile slowly appeared on his face. After playing in the water for a while, Huo Lianqing saw that Ambrose was still sitting there. He was lying at the edge of the pool, talking to Ambrose.

"Why aren't you coming down?" Her expression was cute and mischievous. She wore a pink bathing suit that made her look sexy and charming. Her eyes were staring straight at Umbo. An Bowen put down the cup in his hand and stood up to walk towards Huo Lianqing. Just as he bent down, he was splashed with water.

Before he could even react, Huo Lianqing's bell-like smile appeared on his face. Following that, she played with him a few more times, causing his upper body and hair to become wet. An Bowen looked at Huo Lianqing with a slightly sinister look on his face. He frowned slightly while his expression was a little stiff. However, he soon broke out into a smile. This smile was like a gust of spring wind, warm and gentle, causing one's heart to involuntarily tremble.

While Huo Lianqing was still in a daze, Ambowen grabbed her arm. He lifted the water with his other hand and held it above her head, letting it drip down her head.

"Ah!" You know how to do that too! " Huo Lianqing smiled happily as she took off her swimming mirror and sat on the edge of the pool. An Bowen half-squatted on the side and looked at her. Huo Lianqing did not hold back and picked up the drink beside her and started to drink it.

Water droplets were still on her head and face, and her eyelashes were still wet. She was still tilting her head upwards, her smooth and plump cheeks shining like pearls under the sun's rays. "She looked like an 18, 9 year old girl. Her body was brimming with vitality and passion, making people feel happy and safe when they saw her.

"Why don't you go swimming? Are you shy? "Do you feel embarrassed in front of a stranger?" Huo Lianqing asked as she held a cup in one hand and stirred the straw in the other. Huo Lianqing felt that the atmosphere between them was very delicate. It seemed that she should find something to mock them.

"Do you think I'm shy?" The two of them smiled at each other. An Bowen reached out to a towel and gave it to Huo Lianqing. Huo Lianqing took the cup from him with one hand and tried to put it on with the other.

Suddenly he leaned over and carefully covered her with the towel. Huo Lianqing smiled at him warmly. He still remembered her cold and indifferent eyes and haughty attitude when he first met her. He had seen countless people, but he had never seen such a woman. Or perhaps at that moment, his heart skipped a beat.

It's a bit weird here. We should go outside, or maybe Hawaii, or a small island in the southern United States. There's a hot sun, a warm beach... " Huo Lianqing sat opposite to him and told him with a smile. She never really liked swimming, but there seemed to be nothing to do here, and Ambowen seemed a little strange to her. Huo Lianqing wanted to see if this man was really interested in her.
