Chapter 231: Chapter 231: Dialogue Between Brothers
However, she felt no fear, one might even say she was calm, calmly waiting for that day to come.
Lately, she had been thinking a lot and also changed many of her past thoughts. A single person would never be as happy as two people caring for each other. After a period of getting along, she slowly began to adapt to the busy and lively life at home. Occasionally, when she was alone, she became rather unaccustomed to it. Gradually, she began to look forward to the ’home’ Lin Mubai mentioned, a home where someone waits for you while you work outside, someone who cooks hot meals for you when you come home, someone who worries and takes care of you when you’re sick.
Thinking of this, her serene gaze fell once more on the distinctively handsome face of the man beside her, filling her heart with a gentle sense of happiness.
Lin Mubai also noticed her gaze and gently lifted the corner of his mouth.
It was this slight curve that made his already extraordinarily handsome face even more dazzling, possessing an alluring charm that captivated others. An Nan couldn’t help but silently curse in her heart: "Demon."
What else could such a man be, if not a demon; he attracts both men and women. Fortunately, he’s not flirtatious and never lets women get close to him, otherwise, all women might throw themselves at him. Yet, she wasn’t confident in controlling such a man, mainly due to the barrier in her heart that she couldn’t get past for the time being.
The dinner ended happily despite the earlier unpleasantness caused by the Huo siblings.
Zhan Qiyi returned to the private room only when dinner was nearly over, and his chosen excuse was unusually similar to Lin Mubai’s: "Met some friends, chatted a bit more."
Everyone knew there was something fishy about it but did not point it out.
After dinner, Han Xiayang suggested that everyone continue to find amusement. Since the group had no other plans for the evening, they agreed. Zhan Qiyi then stood up and said: "My two friends just got off the plane today, I should take them back to the hotel to rest."
Echoing him were Jack and Aiden, nodding repeatedly: "Yeah, yeah, Anna, we are indeed very tired today, you stay here and have fun, we’ll meet another day."
While Jack spoke, Aiden nodded in agreement. At this point, An Nan had no reason to keep them, so she nodded and agreed: "Alright, I’ll accompany you out first."
After An Nan, Zhan Qiyi, and the others left the private room, Lan Luo tidied up his radiant smile from the whole night and came to Lin Mubai: "Mu Bai, let’s find a place to chat."
Lin Mubai lifted his eyes to glance at him, nodded in agreement, then instructed the others: "You go downstairs and book a room first, play a few rounds tonight." Nannan didn’t like those noisy places, so playing mahjong was a good choice.
When only Lin Mubai and Lan Luo were left in the private room, the former proactively spoke: "What do you want to tell me?"
Lan Luo didn’t hide anything and directly lifted his head to look at him, expressing his thoughts: "I hope you don’t get angry at what I’m going to say next. As your cousin, I’m just concerned about you."
Lan Luo paused here, looked into the other’s calm and unwavering dark eyes, and continued: "I’m not very optimistic about you and An Nan. Why her? You are the pride of both the Lin Family and the Lan Family, able to marry any kind of woman. Why choose someone older than you and with a child?"
