Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

“Because I really wanted to marry you,” Xu Baohan said as he hugged her, unable to hide the eagerness in his eyes.

An Lan’s heart skipped a beat, at that moment, she really wanted to nod her head in agreement.

However, she restrained herself and wrapped her arms around his neck, “Bohan, I want to marry you too, but we’re not very calm right now, in the relationship, we are probably in the most passionate time right now, but what would we be after the passion is over, what I want is not a period of time, but a lifetime.”

Xu Baohan understood what she meant. “An Lan, maybe the passion will pass, as we slowly grow old together, our relationship will not change, our love will last forever.”

“I really hope so too, I wish that we could cherish this moment,” An Lan sighed softly, what to ad as she was a lawyer? A lawyer’s mind had to always remain calm, as her every step had to be careful, she cannot make mistakes, otherwise…the lawsuit would be lost.

Life was also like a lawsuit.

“Go to work, it’s getting late.”

“I want to skip work today,” Xu Baohan lamented, he wanted to hug her the whole day, not letting go.

“But you can’t,” An Lan continued, “The trial has already been scheduled, many of them are waiting for you.”

“Yes, the judge can never be absent.”

Xu Baohan smiled bitterly, got up, put on his clothes, and went out.

..

An Lan called Li Yuchen to get sick leave, to be more realistic, she even pretended to have a hoarse voice.

“Since you’re sick, do you need us to buy some fruits and visit you?” Li Yuchen sighed. “I didn’t expect you to catch a cold as you’re usually as strong as an ox, how strange.”

“Do you even know how to speak? If you don’t then shut up.” An Lan was annoyed. “I don’t need you to visit me.”

Li Yuchen smiled. “Sigh, you’re still so full of energy when you scold people, did you really catch a cold? If it’s just a little fever, then forget it, just persevere and come to work.”

“Get lost.” An Lan was so angry that she laughed, even though she had lied about her illness, but this guy was too ruthless. “I’m so sick that I’m going into shock, I just can’t come to work today. Goodbye.”

After she hung up, she pulled the blanket over and went to sleep.

When she woke up again, it was already ten o’clock, there was a WeChat message from Xu Baohan: Remember to take breakfast when you wake up, I made toast for You before I came out, it should be ready now.

An Lan washed up and went downstairs, the toast was already prepared and left n the toaster, she cut it open and put a piece of cheese in and grilled it, it was not bad.

However, her legs were sore and she was too lazy to move, she laid on the sofa, watching TV and playing with her phone.

It was 12.40 pm when Xu Baohan delivered the food.

Seeing him in such a hurry, An Lan could not bear it. “Did you drive here?”

“I couldn’t drive so fast, I took the subway.” Xu Baohan opened the lunchbox. “I didn’t eat either, let’s eat together, I have to rush to the court after that.”

An Lan held her chopsticks and stared at him, her heart was warm. “Actually, if you think the takeout is not so hygienic, you can get someone to deliver the food, it’s very convenient to deliver within the same city now, you don’t have to go through so much trouble.”

Xu Baohan swallowed the food and lowered his head, his deep eyes were brighter than ever. “An Lan, I just want to have lunch with you today.”

An Lan felt a rare sweetness in her heart, she raised her eyebrows and smiled. “Are you that happy to have lunch with me?”

“Not really, just that… it’s quite appetizing.” Xu Baohan smiled. “I think I can eat three bowls of rice.”
