The next day.

Delia brought Lu Yan to the mall with him, but after waiting for a while, An’an still hadn’t arrived.
Furrowing his brows, Delia checked the time for the umpteenth.
“Why isn’t An’an here yet?”

Lu Yan wore a navy blue t-shirt with black pants that day.
He just slumped against the wall, remaining impassive without showing an ounce of emotion on his face that was hidden under the cap he wore.

A sensual voice was heard.
“Master Delia, I’m late.”

It was An’an.

Lu Yan froze, lifting his eyes to steal a glance at An’an.
An’an could feel someone looking at her with some displeasure.
She knew that it was Lu Yan looking at her.

“An’an, you’re finally here.
Let me take you shopping today.
You can pick everything, from jewelry to clothes and bags.
Pick whatever you want.”

Delia pointed at the sparkling jewelry in the display cases.

“Boss, I’m gonna go for a smoke.” Lu Yan left.

…

In the stairway.

Lu Yan had one hand in his pocket while the other was preoccupied with a cigarette.
He was puffing on it.

Knock knock.
A lithe figure appeared in his line of vision.
“I need a flame.”

It was An’an.

An’an walked in front of him, holding a cigarette in her hand.
She held the cigarette between her lips and came up on her tiptoes, lighting it up with the cigarette in his mouth.

Their faces were close and their breathing entangled.
Lu Yan lowered his eyes to look at her, snatching over the cigarette in her mouth before breaking it into two halves.
He cast the broken cigarette into the bin.

“Who did you pick up smoking from? You’re not allowed to smoke.”

“Then you’re not allowed to smoke either.” She stretched out her hand, wanting to snatch his cigarette over.

Lu Yan grasped her wrist with the same hand he used to hold the cigarette, his voice deepened as he warned her, “Stop giving me trouble.”

He flung her wrist away, bringing the cigarette to his lips.

He was really angry.

“I know that you’re angry at me for not listening to you but the mission this time is to get Delia’s private stamp.
Such an important thing must be really difficult to obtain.
With Delia’s current obsession with me, you should know that I’m the best person for this.”

Lu Yan spat out the smoke and looked at her impassively.
“You’re done?”

“What?”

Lu Yan threw the cigarette butt into the bin before turning around to leave.
He obviously didn’t want to talk to her.

“…”

An’an went in front, stretching out both arms to hug his trim waist from the back.

Lu Yan froze.

“Ah Yan, open your eyes and look at me now.
I’m no longer the An’an you need to protect, I can also be responsible for myself.
I want to be the woman who can not only give you the warmth you need at home, but also fight alongside you when you’re outside.”

Lu Yan’s gaze changed, he turned around and placed his palm on her stomach.

He cared about her stomach every moment.

“Ah Yan.” An’an held his palm.
“I used a pregnancy test kit yesterday, I’m not pregnant.”

Lu Yan lifted his eyes to look at her.
“You’re really not pregnant?”

“Mm.” An’an nodded.

Lu Yan retracted his palm, putting it in his pocket.

An’an was disappointed.
He had been deliberating about their relationship all along, it was only after he thought that she was pregnant only then his attitude changed.

He was a man in his 40s, having a child at such an age, he must have been delighted.
He must have thought that he would have more responsibilities in life now.

But she wasn’t pregnant, would he… choose to forsake her again? Well at least, not dote on her as much as yesterday?

She pouted her lips, wanting to say something.
“Ah Yan–”

But she heard Delia’s voice from outside.
“An’an.”

Delia was looking for her.

“Ah Yan, I’ll head outside first.” An’an could only leave.

…

Outside.
An’an walked over to Delia.
“Master Delia, I went to the bathroom earlier, you were looking for me?”

“An’an, let me introduce you to my cousin, Qianqian.”

There was a tall beauty standing beside Delia.
She had the looks and figure and was very attractive.
An’an smiled while looking at Delia.
“She must not be your cousin, but your sweetheart right?”

“Don’t spout nonsense, Qianqian has someone she likes already.”

Really?

An’an glanced at Qianqian.

A tall figure appeared in front of them.
It was Lu Yan.

Lu Yan had both hands in his pockets and a cap on.
He walked over with steady footsteps and his entire countenance lowkey, mysterious even.

Qianqian’s eyes lit up, she quickly ran in front.
“Da Shan, it’s been too long! Have you missed me?”

An’an’s smile stiffened.
So this Qianqian liked Lu Yan.

Her first impression of Qianqian was that she was stolid, just like an elder miss but now Qianqian started smiling beside Lu Yan and put away all of that attitude she had.
She seemed to even be fawning all over Lu Yan.

“Da Shan,” Qianqian called out, even stretching out her arm to interlock her arm with Lu Yan’s muscular one.
Interlocking arms was an intimate action that only couples would do.
An’an’s gaze riveted on Lu Yan.

Lu Yan didn’t look at her, but just as Qianqian was about to interlock her arm with his, he retracted his arm without making a sound.

He gave Qianqian an impassive glance.

Qianqian pouted her lips aggrievedly.
“Da Shan, do you have another woman outside, that’s why you’ve forgotten about me?”

Lu Yan had both hands in his pockets, though he wasn’t exactly annoyed by her, he just replied half-heartedly.
“Elder Miss, don’t joke.”

Delia burst out laughing.
“Da Shan, ever since you saved Qianqian’s life the other time, she could not forget about you.
Are you interested in becoming my brother-in-law? Don’t be a chauffeur anymore, let me give you a club to manage.”

Qianqian looked at Lu Yan with expectation.

Lu Yan pursed his lips, not saying a word at all.
He didn’t agree, but didn’t object either.

An’an felt uncomfortable inside, she stretched out her arm to tug on Delia’s sleeve.
“Master Delia, you said that you’ll take me shopping today, why did you suddenly turn into a matchmaker?”

“An’an, are you blaming me for neglecting you? Let’s go now, you can have your pick at the jewelry.”

Qianqian was delighted.
“Da Shan, let’s go look at jewelry too.”

Qianqian pulled Lu Yan in front of the display window, pointing at a rose gold bracelet excitedly.
“Da Shan, is this pretty?”

Lu Yan stood tall, remaining impassive as he replied, “You can buy whatever you want for yourself, I have no money.”

“…”

Qianqian’s originally excited face instantly turned gloomy.
She knew that he had no money, he had only been a chauffeur for one month, he hadn’t even received his salary for the month yet.

“Da Shan, what do you think about this watch? It’s a limited edition, let me buy it for you, it’ll be a gift for you.” Qianqian continued fawning on him.

The salesperson looked at Lu Yan with a condescending look in his eyes.
This man had no money and yet he was letting a woman gift him with something so expensive.
Tsk.
Just one look and he could tell he relied on women for a livelihood.

Regardless, the salesperson continued persuading Qianqian.
“Beauty, you have really good taste.
This watch really suits this Mister.”
