Whenever a legal issue arose, the confidence in her eyes shone so brilliantly that it would be hard for one to take their eyes off her.
On one occasion, her proposal was accepted by her mentor, and he suggested that she did it in his stead. Even when faced with an opposing lawyer, she completed her task beautifully. There was absolutely no fear as she did her job; she was confident and did out any signs that she was a newcomer in the field.
The more he interacted with her, the more attracted to her he became. He also became more curious about her and wanted to learn about even more of her characteristics. He wondered if there was anything else about her that would pleasantly surprise him.
Some say that once you become curious about the opposite sex, it means you are about to fall deep.
Eventually, he was fully submerged.
He felt glad now that he had seen how decisive she was and the way she did not get entangled in sloppy emotions. At the same time, he made a silent note to himself to never leave Yu Zi so broken-hearted that she would break up with him.
Because once broken up with, she would never come back.
Nevertheless, Yan Huaian was still in a good mood.
Since the once that was suffering now was not him, and not Yu Zi, but Yue Jingchen. He no longer needed to worry about Yu Zi reconciling with Yue Jingchen, and all he had to do now was win Yu Zi’s heart.
…
At this moment, Yue Jingchen was back at the gate of the residential area after leaving earlier.
Due to the complaints from before, the management of the property had gone to the head of security. He was asked to reprimand the security guards of the residential area, whereby they had to be reminded take responsibility and check the identities of outsiders before letting them in.
With that, Yue Jingchen had been blacklisted by the security guards of the residential area. When they saw him wandering around by the gate and wanting to come it, the guard recognized him immediately and kept his eyes glued on him so that he could not enter.
No matter what Yue Jingchen said, the guard was adamant on not letting him in.
Therefore, Yue Jingchen simply waited by the road of the gate. He simply refused to believe it. Had the man not left yet?
Sooner or later, he would need to leave the residential area.
Having said that, the p*ssed off Yue Jingcheng had forgotten the fact that he had never seen the man in the first place. He could not recognize him if he were to come out anyway.
Nevertheless, Yue Jingchen stayed there with an iron determination. One thing to note was that he only needed to look up to see the window of Yu Zi’s house that faced the road. He could tell that her light was on but was just at a loss about what she was currently doing with that man.
Was Yu Zi really someone that had no sympathy for old relationships? They just broke up a day ago, but did she already find herself a new flame?
Perhaps, the new lover was there from the beginning, and she was just waiting for a suitable excuse to break up with him. Then, she took advantage of the ruckus from yesterday and decided to cut things off with him.
Yue Jingchen clutched his hair in agony, unwilling to believe in the possibility of the second thought.
No, Yu Zi was not that type of person.
However, he just could not help but continue looking up at Yu Zi’s lighted up window. Many thoughts crossed his mind as he did this.
After dinner, Yan Huaian insisted on washing the bowls and plates.
To Yu Zi’s surprise, Yan Huaian was even great at doing the dishes. Everything was sparkling clean, and there were no sounds of shattering bowls as she had expected.
She wanted to look for an excuse for Yan Huaian to go back after dinner, but she did not expect him to wash the dishes and clean up the kitchen as well.
It would be rude of her to chase him out after this, so Yu Zi brewed some tea and cut up some fruits. Then, she asked Yan Huaian to take a rest.
“We’re neighbors, there’s no need to be so polite. Just as you said this afternoon, if you need any help, let me know.” Yan Huaian said with a smile.
It was not until Yan Huaian had left that Yu Zi was able to clear her head. The two of them just now… did they have pleasant conversations with each other?
She was not someone that quickly warmed up to people, even if it was her work partners or colleagues in the office. She barely interaction with them at work, much less outside the office.
Yu Zi was well aware of her distant personality, but she could also quickly become close with someone she felt good about. It was very rare for her to feel drawn to someone, and she would normally only open up to someone after spending a long time together.
But then there was Yan Huaian. She wondered if she had a special affinity to him.
Truthfully, she had known Yan Huaian for quite some time now, although they were not very close. Even if there was no special affinity, she still thought that Yan Huaian was a good person. He was neither loathing nor annoying, and he could easily make someone fond of him.
In short, she had a great chat with Yan Huaian and was not at all pressured by him.
Yu Zi shook her head. It was, indeed, an odd feeling.
Yue Jingchen squatted outside the gate of the residential area until the lights in Yu Zi’s house were turned off. Then, only then did he realize that even if the man came out, he would not recognize him anyway. With that, he left the place in despair.
However, early the next morning, he came over again.
Yu Zi usually would not drive to work as she would take the subway just like ordinary office workers.
Because of this, he had planned to wait by the gate and intercept Yu Zi to ask her clearly about what had gone on with her and the man last night.
He came early in the morning and did not even have his breakfast yet. Hence, he bought a black rice congee and three steamed stuffed buns from one of the two breakfast carts that were parked just across the road.
He finished everything in two or three bites and threw the trash into the garbage bin that was by the gate before proceeding to wait there for her.
When Yu Zi got up and brushed her teeth in the morning, she smelled whiffs of bacon coming from the balcony next door.
She and Yan Huaian did not install glass windows on their balconies. Yu Zi felt that since there was a French window installed between the living room and the balcony, the presence of a glass window outside would ruin the aesthetics of her place. Furthermore, it would become a nuisance as she had a habit of going to the balcony to take in the scenery from time to time.
As for her neighbor, the original resident was an elegantly poetic madam. She planted many flowers and plants on the balcony and decorated the balcony to be similar to those from French literary movies. Thus, the whole place was surrounded by flowers and plants, making it look bright and magnificent, especially during springtime. It honestly looked like it was straight out of a postcard.
Since the original resident next door had moved out, the flowers and plants were taken with her as well. Now the balcony was empty and uncovered.
The two balconies were side by side and very close together, with a distance of only about a meter between them.
Yu Zi knew that she should not be so curious and nosy. However, she could not help but follow the smell to the balcony. Then, she peered into the balcony next door.
As she poked her head over, she was almost immediately met with a mocking face.
It was Yan Huaian, and he was holding a spatula in his hand. He was smiling faintly as he looked at her, his brilliant eyes appearing very bemused.
Yu Zi blushed and said in an embarrassment, “I’m just taking in the fresh morning air.”
Yan Huaian said nothing but merely gazed silently toward the scenery outside.
There was a layer of gray haze outside, and today’s PM2.5 value was through the roof.
Yan Huaian smiled warmly and walked over. He leaned slightly to one side as he propped his elbow on the balcony railing. His right knee was propped ahead of his left leg as the latter trailed behind, causing his toes to only lightly touch the ground. The whole pose was somewhat unruly.
If a youngster in his twenties had done it, it would look quite unpolished.
However, when he had done the movement, it looked unrestrained, making him appear confident and at ease. Those elegant legs of his were still as long as before, even though they were slightly bent.
Even from an unbiased perspective, his would be the definition of long legs.
Yan Huaian smiled and leaned over. There was still some distance between him and Yu Zi, but Yu Zi could not stop blushing.
Then, she heard Yan Huaian ask, “Are you sure you’re breathing in the fresh air, and not poison?”
Yu Zi, “…”
It was rare to see the strong-minded young lady show a sullen expression. She was pouting so much that you could hang clothes to dry off her protruding lip.
Yan Huaian could not help but chuckle before he asked, “Have you had breakfast?”
Yu Zi shook her head. She felt that she had just embarrassed herself and was uncomfortable talking. Her ears felt numb as she replied, “I just brushed my teeth.”
After speaking, she immediately regretted it.
Why did she report to him is such a detailed manner? She just needed to reply to him that she had not eaten. Why did she tell him about brushing her teeth? What was that for?
The more she regretted it, the more uncomfortable she became as she looked at Yan Huaian. So much so that she did not notice Yan Huaian staring at her with intense focus, as if harboring malicious intentions.
Only one sentence echoed through Yan Huaian’s head at this time, and that was that she had just brushed her teeth.
He wondered what flavor of toothpaste was she using, was it mint with hints of fruit? Or purely mint? Maybe the currently popular salty mint flavor?
Yan Huaian thought to himself that he could not kiss Yu Zi for now, but he had to find a way to brush his teeth with her toothpaste.
If Liu Jiamu were present, he would definitely be able to tell that Yan Huaian, who was an upright nobleman and currently had an expressionless face, was actually having indecent thoughts!
Trying to restrain his thoughts, Yan Huaian’s empty left hand could not help but pinch the index finger of his right hand. His fingertips gripped the index finger as he rubbed it with an inexpressible gentleness. It was as if he were rubbing the lips of a lover.
His long eyelashes were drooping slightly, covering half of the light in his eyes.
He smiled as he asked, “I made bacon and omelet for breakfast. If you don’t mind, come over and eat with me.”
Yu Zi was a little hesitant. Then, Yan Huaian chuckled and continued, “You invited me for dinner last night. This breakfast is nothing.”
Yu Zi took whiffs of the smell of bacon and omelet and felt her stomach growl. She was too lazy to make it herself, and there was already a ready-made breakfast next door. For this reason, she eventually nodded happily.
