“Can you bring your family member?” Xu Baohan suddenly asked.

An Lan raised her teacup in surprise. “You like this kind of occasion?”

Although they hadn’t been together for long, she knew that he didn’t like to attend the company’s banquet.

“I don’t like it, but it’s easy for a love rival to appear at a blind date or birthday banquet. I have to keep an eye on you,” Xu Baohan said softly. “An Lan, it’s time for you to bring me out to meet people. You can’t keep me in the dark all the time. I won’t feel safe…”

“Pfft…” An Lan spat out a mouthful of tea.

After a long while, she came back to her senses and coughed so hard that her face turned red.

“Are you alright?” Xu Baohan asked. “Don’t choke to death. If you choke to death, it won’t be easy for me to find a girlfriend.”

An Lan gritted her teeth, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “Can you not be so disgusting when you speak? A grown man who has no sense of security.”

“I’m serious,” Xu Baohan said in a serious tone. “I’m already busy with work, so I don’t have much time to spend with you. I want to get to know you better.”

“Alright, I’ll put you on as a family member tomorrow,” An Lan said with a smile. “Come and pick me up tomorrow morning.”

“Okay.”

The next day, An Lan was resting. It was rare for her to sleep in, so when she was still lazing around in bed, the doorbell rang.

She opened the door and was speechless when she saw Xu Baohan’s face. “Come on, it’s only nine o’clock, why are you here so early?”

“Am I early? I usually wake up at 7 am. I’ve been dawdling at home for an hour and I’m really bored, so I came over to look for you.”

Xu Baohan said as he sized up the dark pink velvet pajamas she was wearing. Her long hair was slightly disheveled and draped over her shoulders. The color matched her skin perfectly, it was sexy and filled with a seductive charm. “You’re not up yet?”

“Yes, it’s rare for me to have a break, I’ll definitely sleep in.” An Lan yawned. “How boring it would be for you to rest at home without a girlfriend?”

“It’s fine, when I don’t have a girlfriend, I’ll watch TV programmes and play ball with my colleagues. It’s not a big deal, but after I have you, I want to give you all the spare time I have.” Xu Baohan lowered his head and pecked her lips.

“I didn’t brush my teeth.” An Lan turned to avoid him. “Can you wait for me outside? I need to tidy myself up.”

“You look good even if you don’t tidy yourself up,” Xu Baohan blurted out.

An Lan blushed and rolled her eyes at him. “You ate honey so early in the morning.”

“I wanted to eat it just now, but I didn’t manage to.” Xu Baohan was serious.

An Lan recalled the kiss just now and her face burned. She couldn’t continue. “Wait for me.”

“Okay.”

Xu Baohan sat on the sofa, thinking that the words “wait for me” could sound so nice, especially in that gentle tone. He really wanted to move the Civil Affairs Bureau over and get married at current place.

After sitting quietly for a while, Xu Baohan took out the breakfast he had bought and put them on the plates. He then turned and went to the washroom.

As soon as he entered, he saw a basket beside the washing machine. An Lan’s close-fitting clothes were inside.

His ears were red. He took them out and washed them with his hands.

An Lan came out after washing up and found that he was not in the living room. He had probably gone to the bathroom.

Just as she picked up a cup of soymilk on the table, she suddenly remembered that she was too lazy last night. She had been lazy after taking a shower and had not even washed her close-fitting clothes.

Oh dear, oh dear! If he saw her dirty clothings, would he think that she was too lazy?

An Lan rushed into the bathroom. The moment she rushed in, she wanted to dig her eyes out.

Xu Baohan was so scared that he quickly buckled his belt, his cold face flushed red from the inside out. He gritted his teeth. “An Lan, what do you want?”
