Xuan Yuanlang shook his wine glass thoughtfully. “It’s difficult, right? There are too many temptations these days.”

“Yeah,” An Lan smiled bitterly. “I don’t know when I’ll be able to get married either.”

“You want to get married?” Xuan Yuanlang asked.

“Sometimes, I feel a little envious when I see others getting married.” For some reason, An Lan felt that she didn’t need to be too guarded in front of him.

Xuan Yuanlang pushed the steak in front of her, “An Lan, actually, many people aren’t that happy when they get married. You may see that Nian Junting and Xiao Si’s marriages are very good, but it’s just an exception. So, be careful. If you feel that you don’t have a happy life together, there’s no need to force yourself. We’re both adults with successful careers. There’s no need to put ourselves in a difficult position just to please anyone. A man with good taste and self-control wouldn’t mind a woman’s age. You’re a very outstanding person. From the moment I met you, I knew that you were a book that got better and better. A good book will never lack fans.”

An Lan lowered her head to look at Xuan Yuanlang’s handsome face and was stunned. After a while, her sad heart seemed to have been healed a lot.

Xuan Yuanlang continued, “Of course, every man has his flaws. I also have many flaws. No matter which man you choose, this is no exception. Of course, your flaws will be determined by whether you can endure it or not. Think about it carefully.”

He raised his glass.

“Thank you.” An Lan clinked her glass with his.

An Lan had a pretty good dinner. Basically, she enjoyed it more than any other restaurant. After eating seafood and steak, there were also desserts and drinks.

An Lan was very full. She drank half a bottle of red wine and Xuan Yuanlang drove her home.

“How did you feel tonight?” Xuan Yuanlang asked.

“Great, two words, very great,” An Lan said seriously. After all, it was such a big imported fresh supermarket, how could she not be happy with the high-end ingredients that were randomly chosen for cooking? “Who will be convinced to marry you in the future?”

“Not necessarily, being with someone, whether it’s happiness or not has nothing to do with their money or culinary skills,” Xuan Yuanlang shook his head.

An Lan thought about it and agreed. She had money now, Xu Baohan had culinary skills, but he was still unhappy.

The car stopped below the condominium and Xuan Yuanlang got out to help her open the car door.

“You don’t have to be so polite.” An Lan got out of the car and smiled, but her gaze froze when she looked behind him.

…

Xu Baohan waited downstairs from the morning until 10 pm. He looked left and right but did not see An Lan’s car. He did not expect to see An Lan coming out from the passenger seat of a black Bentley at this time, the man who opened the door for him was dressed in a windbreaker. He had a refined and handsome face and was full of nobility.

She raised her head and smiled at the man with her eyes curved.

For some reason, his heart felt as though it was blocked by a huge rock. He felt suffocated and an unknown panic gripped his heart.

He recognized that this person was Xuan Yuanlang, whom he had seen on the news.

He walked over quickly with his dark eyes. “An Lan, you’re back. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

An Lan furrowed her brows. She didn’t expect Xu Baohan to find this place. who was the one who leaked it.

“This is…” Xuan Yuanlang looked at Xu Baohan.

“I’m her boyfriend.” Xu Baohan reached out his hand. “Thank you for sending my girlfriend back.”

As he spoke, he glanced at An Lan. Seeing that she didn’t deny it, he heaved a sigh of relief.

“Oh, you’re An Lan’s boyfriend.” Xuan Yuanlang’s thin lips twitched as he shook his hand and smiled. “Nice to meet you. Hold onto An Lan well.. I’m afraid that I’ll snatch her away if you’re not careful.”
