Even after work, the office was still restless.
Women colleagues still had an expression of regret on their faces. From time to time, they would sigh, wishing that they had taken the opportunity and failed to show their face in front of the male god.
Lin Wan Bai who had been given the chance to show his face quietly packed his stuff, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible and left.
Outside the office building, there was the sound of a car honking.
Lin Wan Bai saw the white Land Rover by the side of the road. In the sunset, Huo Chang Yuan's deep and calm eyes pierced through the windscreen and looked at her.
In order to avoid being chased down by her colleagues, she sprinted forward at full speed.
He opened the car door, got in, and fastened his seat belt. A series of movements were done in one go.
After confirming that it was safe, Lin Wan Bai turned his head and asked, "Huo Chang Yuan, why haven't you left?"
Huo Chang Yuan glanced at her indifferently, he did not want to waste any more words, "Go to the market to buy food, go home and cook."
"Oh." Lin Wan Bai did not dare to object.
Seeing that he wasn't in a good mood and she couldn't shake off the responsibility, she tried to follow his lead.
When they arrived at the market near the residential area, there were many people squeezed into a booth in the middle. The owner was too busy weighing and collecting money to entertain them, so he threw the plastic bag away and could only pack it himself.
Lin Wan Bai bent over and laid on the vegetable stall, carefully picking at it.
When some of the dishes were too far away to reach, Huo Chang Yuan would reach out to help.
Huo Chang Yuan's quiet male voice drowned out the noise made by the peddlers, in his hand was something "Do you want the green peppers?"
"Yes." Lin Wan Bai nodded.
"Do you want the Blue West Flower?"
"Yes." Lin Wan Bai nodded again.
"Where's the cuisine, do you want it?"
"Yes." Lin Wan Bai continued to nod his head.
He thought that he could get some steaming cuisine. Later, he would go to the front to buy some fans to go with it and pour some steamed fish and oil. It was both delicious and delicious.
Looking at her who was deep in thought with her head lowered, a crafty look flashed past Huo Chang Yuan's eyes.
He suddenly picked up a scallion and asked, "Do you want to date me?"
"…" Lin Wan Bai bit her lips and did not reply.
Huo Chang Yuan threw the scallion aside, and said with an exasperated tone, "Not very stupid, since when did you become so smart!"
Lin Wan Bai clenched her claws, how could she be stupid!
However, when she saw the corner of his lips tighten because he failed to achieve his goal, she felt her heart become calm again.
She simply cooked four dishes and a soup when she returned to Lin Wan Bai's restaurant at night. There weren't any dishes that were too dirty, only a plate of fried river prawns.
The two of them sat in silence as they ate, facing each other, with only the sound of the chopsticks and plates lightly knocking against each other. When she put down the chopsticks, Huo Chang Yuan looked at her and asked, "Tomorrow, after the service, what are you planning to do?"
"Ugh …" Lin Wan Bai blinked his eyes. It was obvious that he had not planned for it yet.
"Do you want to go back to the village to visit your grandmother?" Huo Chang Yuan raised his eyebrow and proposed a suggestion.
"Yes!" Lin Wan Bai nodded without hesitation.
Grandmother had already been out in the countryside for a long time, and the two of them were basically using the phone to contact each other. The elderly wouldn't use much of their smart products, so every time they caught up with a neighbor's child, they would be able to see it for a short period of time.
Huo Chang Yuan pointed to the watch on his wrist with his forefinger, "Mn, we will depart at nine tomorrow morning."
Lin Wan Bai was startled, then understood the meaning of his words, he wanted to accompany him back to the countryside?
In an instant, he was overjoyed.
Seeing that he had already gotten up and was walking towards the Profound Entrance, Lin Wan Bai quickly followed him.
Just as he was about to close the door, Huo Chang Yuan's footsteps paused.
He suddenly turned around, his deep eyes focused on her, and faintly said, "There are still four days left."
"…"
The next day at nine o'clock, the white Land Rover was on its way out of the city.
When Lin Wan Bai thought about meeting with his grandmother in the afternoon, he couldn't help but be excited.
Actually, there were several times when she wanted to go back to the countryside to visit him, but the old man pitied her for taking the train and struggling so much. He refused her no matter what she said.
She could not help but look at the man beside her and ask, "Huo Chang Yuan, have you not worked in the past two days?"
"They've all been pushed." Huo Chang Yuan said indifferently.
"Isn't this delaying you too much …" Lin Wan Bai bit his lips.
Huo Chang Yuan's thin lips curved up slightly, and he calmly replied, "It's fine, I just happen to miss my grandmother a lot."
Lin Wan Bai nodded his head. He could easily judge the authenticity of his words. He had always treated his grandmother very well, even during their previous transaction, he had been very patient and attentive.
As she was leaving in the morning, she saw the trunk full of nutrients.
Last night, he made a sudden decision. He didn't even have the time to think about it.
Huo Chang Yuan...
Lin Wan Bai retracted her gaze and pretended to look at the scenery outside the window in panic.
When they reached the toll gate, they slowed down and waited in line.
The phone in his bag vibrated. Lin Wan Bai took it out and saw that it was a message from his best friend, Sang Xiao Yu.
"Lil 'White, be careful!"
Just when he was confused about the meaning of the sentence, another one came in. "What if Hutong stops in the middle of nowhere on the way and takes off all your clothes, forcing you to agree to his request? "When the time comes, you'll call Tian Tian 'no', and you'll cry so badly that you won't even make it …"
The more Lin Wan Bai read, the more he felt a chill on his spine.
When she felt something, she was shocked and quickly put her phone on her back.
But it was already too late. Huo Chang Yuan rubbed his chin, seemed to have muttered to himself for a moment, and slowly said, "This is a good idea."
"Don't act recklessly …"
Lin Wan Bai swallowed his saliva and could not help but shrink to the side.
Seeing her so nervous, Huo Chang Yuan slapped her on the head, "Idiot!"
The car in front had already left. The Land Rover started up and lowered the window to retrieve its card.
Lin Wan Bai's hair in front of her forehead was all messed up. She looked in the back mirror and rearranged it, when the wind blew in, she did not feel annoyed at all. Instead, she felt a tinge of sweetness that she had never felt before.
Around three in the afternoon, the Land Rover arrived at its destination.
Lin Wan Bai jumped down from the car and immediately held onto the hand of the old man at the door, grumbling: "Grandma, why are you standing outside waiting!"
"It's not cold. Besides, I just came out not long ago!" Her grandmother was smiling merrily, her face a little flushed from the wind, but she was still unable to win against her good mood. She stepped forward and pulled Huo Chang Yuan who was behind her, "Little Huo, let's go in!"
"Yes, Grandmother." Huo Chang Yuan nodded.
One on the left and one on the right, the two of them helped the old man across the courtyard.
After not seeing her for a long time, he had a lot to say. Until the evening, his grandma sat on the mahogany chair without moving at all. She pulled them both along as she asked about the warmth. The entire house was filled with the elderly's loving and warm laughter.
After dinner, Lin Wan Bai washed some fruits.
Outside, the night was getting darker.
After taking care of her grandma and eating the strange fruit, she had just picked up an apple when she heard Huo Chang Yuan suddenly ask, "How do you sleep tonight?"
