Chapter 86

Lin Wan Bai suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes.

Blinking his eyes hard, he saw that the tall figure was still there, and that pair of deep eyes were still looking at her from afar.

There seemed to be a small electrical current running through his head.

She slowly walked forward and pointed at the man who was falling from the sky. "You …"

"Stupid?" Huo Chang Yuan looked at her foolishness and smirked.

Lin Wan Bai nodded his head, but shook it again in the next second.

Embarrassment crept onto her face, but she was still unable to recover. "What are you doing here?"

It wasn't her fault. Huo Chang Yuan's appearance and the surrounding environment were simply too incompatible.

Grandmother came out of the house, holding a cup of tea that she had found somewhere, and waved at her. "This kid, what are you doing standing there like an idiot? Bring Little Huo into the house and sit down! "

"Oh!" Lin Wan Bai replied.

Once inside, Granny directed her to boil water for tea.

He was still wearing his usual black suit. It was handmade, and the sleeves that were exposed were very neat. The red agate inlay made it seem like he had just come out from some meeting.

"I just arrived." Huo Chang Yuan said indifferently.

"Little Huo came here not long after you left, I wanted to call you to hurry you up!" Grandma had already finished talking, but her smile towards Huo Chang Yuan deepened, "Oh right, Little Huo, you haven't come to eat breakfast yet, right? It just so happens to be together! "

It was a very old round wooden table, and the chopsticks and bowls on it were also small and defective.

The countryside was not like the cities. The food was very simple. There was a lump of flour left behind by an egg soup. Furthermore, it was made from a large iron pot. In fact, ordinary people were not used to eating it.

"Little Huo, eat up when you're cold!"

Grandma had already pushed the chopsticks in front of Huo Chang Yuan, smiling as she looked at him.

Just as Lin Wan Bai was putting the pickled vegetables his neighbor had given him on the table, he couldn't help but look at Huo Chang Yuan with a slightly nervous expression.

He lowered his head and said, "Thank you." Then he picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bowl to eat, just like his grandma did.

Just like the time they went to the market. He frowned, but he was not used to it. However, he did not complain or dislike it.

Lin Wan Bai hesitated and asked, "If you don't like it, can I give you a cup of milk?"

"No need." Huo Chang Yuan shook his head.

Then, under the smiling gaze of his grandma, he ate up all the dough sticks in the bowl.

After finishing breakfast, Lin Wan Bai cleaned up the dishes and was called into Grandma's room. She was told by Grandpa Hairy to wait for her to buy more food.

Lin Wan Bai understood the old man's intentions and did not delay any further.

After exiting the courtyard, Huo Chang Yuan followed behind her. "I'll accompany you."

"No need …" Lin Wan Bai looked at the car keys in his hands.

Seeing that, Lin Wan Bai had no choice but to follow along.

In less than two minutes after he stepped on the accelerator, the Land Rover stopped in front of the second floor of the small building at the village entrance. Next to it hung the sign of the grocery store, and quite a few villagers came out carrying vegetables or pork.

"Cough!" Lin Wan Bai rubbed his nose, alleviating the awkwardness, "There are not many people here, that's why they are relatively close!"

Huo Chang Yuan's adam's apple moved and an unnatural expression flashed across his face.

Holding the basket that sold vegetables, Lin Wan Bai said to him before he got off the car, "Wait for me here!"

Maybe because he had just done something embarrassing, this time Huo Chang Yuan did not insist.

Lin Wan Bai did as his grandma requested and bought a lot of dishes. The basket was almost full to the point of overflowing, and when he opened the car door, he realized that Huo Chang Yuan was sitting in the driver's seat with his head tilted backwards, his deep eyes slightly closed.

The sound of the car door slamming shook him, and he opened it slightly more slowly.

Lin Wan Bai noticed the exhaustion beneath his eyelids and could not help but ask, "Did you not rest well?"

"Yes." "Yes." Huo Chang Yuan answered, his lips pulled lightly, "I rushed a lot of work last night, and drove over here overnight after I finished."

Lin Wan Bai's fingers, which were hidden at the side of his leg, were lightly clenched together.

It would take at least six to seven hours to drive here from Ice City, and the road was not easy to drive through. This meant that he had not slept a wink the previous night.

His breathing stopped for a short moment, and Lin Wan Bai couldn't help but ask again, "Why did you come here …"

Huo Chang Yuan did not answer immediately, but extended his hand towards her.

His fingers dug into the exposed collarbone of her collar, and when the tickling sensation hit him, his thin lips kissed her.

The kiss was just nice, neither too sticky nor too greasy.

So much so that Lin Wan Bai could not help but let go of her cooperation, and when she let go of him, her eyes were blurry as she opened her mouth slightly.

As if he was amused by her silly look, Huo Chang Yuan smirked. He could not help but lean over and give her another peck, and then, with a low and hoarse voice, he said, "Because I missed you, and want you."

Although he did not miss the latter half of the sentence, Lin Wan Bai's heart still produced ripples in an instant, and was very gentle.

Following Huo Chang Yuan's Adam's apple rolling up and down, it seemed like the atmosphere had become ambiguous.

Lin Wan Bai was so nervous that her heart started to palpitate. If it wasn't for the three wheeled carriage blocking her way honking its horn, she was not sure if he would have already turned into a wolf and pounced at her.

Huo Chang Yuan not only ate breakfast, but he also continued to eat lunch and dinner.

It was getting dark outside, and he was still sitting in his chair, drinking tea.

Lin Wan Bai could not help but bite her lips, "You're not going back?"

"Grandmother just said it was too late. Driving at night is very dangerous, and she wants me to stay here no matter what." Huo Chang Yuan slightly raised his eyebrow, "It's hard to refuse a generous favor."

"…" Lin Wan Bai was silent.

The house itself was not very big, it only had two rooms. She lived in one of her grandmother's room, and the square hall didn't even have a sofa, only three peach wood chairs. So at night, she slept with her grandmother, and her room was given to Huo Chang Yuan.

Lin Wan Bai carried the blanket into the house, looked around at the simple and crude room, and lightly pursed his lips like a child, "Are you sure … You want to stay here tonight? "

Even though the day was almost over, she still felt that it wasn't real.

It was already a big surprise for someone like him to show up in such a countryside, but now he was staying to sleep?

"Yes." Huo Chang Yuan said indifferently.

Grandmother's room was a warm brick bed, so it wasn't too crowded for two people to sleep on.

After he turned off the light, Lin Wan Bai lay on the wall for a long time without being able to sleep. He didn't dare to make too much of a noise and turned around, afraid that he would disturb his grandmother's rest.

When her body was so stiff that she could barely feel anything, she finally felt a little sleepy.

Just as he closed his eyes, the screen suddenly lit up.

Lin Wan Bai used his palm to cover his body as he opened it, from above it came two scalding words, "Are you asleep?"
