“Okay,” Xiao Yichen replied, then suggested to Lin Wan, “Let’s eat!”
Lin Wan nodded and picked up her chopsticks to begin eating.
During dinner, Lin Wan contemplated many things. After they finished eating, she noticed Xiao Yichen was about to head to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Lin Wan immediately stopped him, saying, “Sit on the sofa and wait. I’ll clean the kitchen, and after that, let’s go back.”
She had pondered it for a while and felt it wasn’t appropriate for him to stay there. After all, it was a small place, and he was accustomed to living in a villa. He might not be comfortable. Additionally, their current relationship and interactions were somewhat cold and indistinct. She was concerned that their emotions might affect her mother’s life.
“Go back? Back to Blue Bay villa?” Xiao Yichen looked at Lin Wan in surprise and inquired.
Lin Wan nodded.
Xiao Yichen was pleasantly surprised and said to Lin Wan, “Wan’er, go rest in the living room. Give me 20 minutes.”
With that, Xiao Yichen swiftly entered the kitchen and started cleaning up.
Lin Wan considered entering the kitchen but ultimately refrained. She turned and proceeded to her room to pack her things.
Twenty minutes later, Xiao Yichen finished cleaning the kitchen and left his mother-in-law’s house with Lin Wan.
After returning to Blue Bay villa, Lin Wan took a shower and lay on the bed, not saying a word to Xiao Yichen.
Xiao Yichen emerged from the shower, lay on the bed, and pulled Lin Wan into his embrace, hugging her tightly.
“Wan’er…” Xiao Yichen addressed her affectionately and leaned in for a kiss.
Lin Wan opened her eyes and saw Xiao Yichen’s face drawing closer. Upon realizing his intentions, she turned her head to present the side of her face to him.
Xiao Yichen’s lips landed on Lin Wan’s cheek. He was surprised. Does she want to avoid me so much?
“Get some rest. I’m tired,” Lin Wan told him, aware that her actions might upset Xiao Yichen, so she continued.
Xiao Yichen listened to her composed voice. He couldn’t bring himself to blame her or be overbearing now.
At any other time, regardless of her resistance or attempts to stop him, he would assertively take what he wanted and claim her. But not now.
The recent news had a significant impact on Lin Wan. He couldn’t force her into anything impulsive.
“Okay, go to sleep,” Xiao Yichen finally acquiesced. He held Lin Wan and closed his eyes to sleep.
Lin Wan remained in Xiao Yichen’s embrace for a while, unable to fall asleep.
She thought, “For now, let’s just live like this! I won’t push anything and will let things run their course. If, one day, he decides on a divorce, I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with him.”
However, she wished he could clarify his feelings and be with Xu Yanxi.
She loved him deeply, and when she saw him intimate with another woman, it was challenging not to care.
As the new day dawned, Lin Wan received a call from her mother shortly after arriving at the company.
“Wanwan, did you go back to Blue Bay villa last night?” Qiao Yujuan inquired over the phone.
She hadn’t seen her daughter when she returned home the previous night. She assumed that Lin Wan might have returned to Blue Bay villa. She had considered calling her daughter last night, but it was getting late, so she decided to call her in the morning when she arrived.
“Yes,” Lin Wan replied. Then, she reassured her mother, “Mom, don’t worry about me. I’m doing fine.”
“Wanwan, what about you and Yichen…” Concerned for her daughter, Qiao Yujuan couldn’t help but ask..
