Chapter 41: Is It Still a Day or Two That I Spoiled You?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The phone was still connected, and Jin Nian felt that she should say something: “Should we…” Halfway through her sentence, she saw the elevator door at the entrance of her house slowly open. Lu An looked over at her.
Today, he was dressed very casually, but he was still in white. The simple s.h.i.+rt was well-tailored, making him stand tall and straight.
There was no expression on his face, and no one could tell whether he was happy or angry. However, there was a familiar carelessness in his eyes, just like the unruly look he had when he was at the corner of the stairs where he was studying. He always made the girls who b.u.mped into him feel at a loss.
Jin Nian did not feel the fear she had expected or anything else. Before she could react, she stood at the door of her house in a daze. She watched Lu An walk towards her step by step. Before she hung up, she said: “Why did you agree to marry me?”
Lu An stood about two meters away from her and said into the phone: “What I said yesterday was not a joke. As long as you say it, I will take care of you. Jin Nian, don’t you realize that it has been more than a day or two that I spoiled you?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu An hung up the phone and walked towards her. He stood in front of her and looked down at her: “You haven’t seen me before? What are you doing?” His voice was low to begin with. Now that the two of them were close, he deliberately lowered it, sounding like a cello.
Jin Nian stared at him with her dark eyes. Suddenly, she asked, “Lu An, were you this handsome before? Why haven’t I noticed it before?”
Lu An was stunned. Then, he straightened his back and no longer looked at her. He walked past her and strode into her house. He said that she used to be blind. Jin Nian did not notice that a certain someone’s earlobes were already red. She followed closely behind him and chattered: “With your looks, you’ll definitely earn a lot of money if you become a gigolo.”
The living room of Jin Nian’s house was not small, but Lu An’s height made it seem a little crowded in the middle. He looked around at the furnis.h.i.+ngs in the house, like an emperor who was visiting in disguise. His posture was inadvertently high and mighty. He did not comment on anything, but his slightly furrowed brows showed his faint disdain.
Jin Nian knew that her home was more like a shelter compared to his mansion. “Your sewer exploded?” Lu An suddenly asked.
There was nothing wrong with Jin Nian’s sewer, but she was the first to explode, “Why are you speaking so harshly?!”
“Smell it yourself. Doesn’t it smell sour?”
“It’s not as exaggerated as you say!”
Jin Nian suddenly remembered that she had added a lot of vinegar to the fried vermicelli she had eaten at noon. She had been staying at home all this time and was already used to this problem. However, as Lu An said the smell is indeed a little bad. She quickly walked to the window and opened it.
When the window opened, a wave of hot wind instantly blew in.
Lu An had already strode into her kitchen. When he opened the refrigerator door, he frowned again. “Is there anything to eat?” he said.
Jin Nian walked to his side, “You haven’t eaten yet?”
“Yes.”
Jin Nian rummaged through the cupboard and finally found a packet of snail noodles, “Eat this. It’s called snail noodles. It’s been very popular in China the past few years. Have you eaten it before when you were abroad?”
“No, but I smelled it. It smells like sh*t. I am not eating it.”
“You really have no taste at all. It might smell bad, but it tastes good.” Lu An asked her back, “So you usually eat this kind of food at home?” “What do you mean by this? If you don’t believe me, you can try it. I guarantee that you’ll be addicted to it and won’t be able to forget it in the future.” “There’s no need.” Lu An stared at her and sized her up, “Are you planning to wear this out?”
“Go out for what?”
“Aren’t we going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register our marriage?”
“Have you really considered it?”
“Is your household registration book at home?” Lu An could not be bothered to talk to her anymore.
“Yes, it is.”
“Okay.” Lu An raised his chin at Jin Nian, his eyes gentle, “Go change into a white s.h.i.+rt, then we’ll head off.”
“Alright.” Jin Nian seemed to have been drugged. She would do whatever Lu An said. After changing her clothes and walking out of the room, Jin Nian realized that she and Lu An looked like a couple. They were both dressed in a white s.h.i.+rt and black pants. They looked quite compatible when they stood together.
“I only have this white s.h.i.+rt, is that okay?” Jin Nian asked him tentatively.
There was a full-length mirror in the living room. Jin Nian stood in front of the mirror. Lu An looked at her through the mirror, “It’s pretty good.” It was very business-like..
