At eleven o’clock at night, Yan Shixiu went to the hotel as promised after finishing his work.

When he entered Shi Lan’s room, she was lying on the bed fully clothed, having apparently slept since her return from the sky palace.

Yan Shixiu took off his suit jacket, undid the buttons of his shirt, rolled up his white sleeves, and sat by the bed with a clean towel to wipe down the young lady.

Shi Lan was sound asleep and, feeling the gentle touch, did not refuse it; she sighed in comfort and slightly turned to continue sleeping.

After Yan Shixiu had finished taking care of her and adjusted the room’s temperature, he then took a bathrobe and entered the shower.

Shi Lan was awakened by the sound of the shower; sitting up, she saw through the frosted glass the tall silhouette in the bathroom.

Five minutes later, the sound of the water stopped, and shortly after, Yan Shixiu, wearing a black bathrobe, emerged from the bathroom.

Yan Shixiu sat on the bed drying his hair. Shi Lan quietly sat up, reached around from behind him, draped her arms over him, and rested her chin on his shoulder, saying, “Actually, you could go without clothes.”

Held by her and continuing to dry his hair, Yan Shixiu countered, “Clothed or not, aren’t you quite familiar either way?”

“So, Uncle Yan, when do you plan to give me some meat?”

Seeing that she was awake and no longer needing to worry about noise, Yan Shixiu got up and went back to the bathroom to dry his hair.

When he returned to the bed, he pulled the young lady over and said, “Then first tell me, if you see my parents, meet Yan Qingzi, encounter the Shi Family people again, won’t you back down? Shi Lan, have a heart for me, don’t make me gain so much all at once; after all, the taste of loss is too painful.”

After listening to him, Shi Lan understood his concerns and replied, “Why would I back down?”

“I’m afraid you might grow tired of it, and over time, when that weariness outweighs your love for me…”

In the end, Yan Shixiu thought too far ahead, while the young lady was only focused on enjoying the moment.

From the estate to the family, Yan Shixiu seemed to be planning their entire lives.

“Am I sick? In the past life, did I ever resent you because of them, when you were in disagreement with me every day? Did I hate you? I never spoke a word against the Yan Family in front of you. What is our relationship now? Why would I grow tired of you because of them? Moreover, why should I back down? If it were An Lan, could I not manage those two families?”

The young lady asked somewhat displeased.

Yan Shixiu hugged Shi Lan and kissed her forehead, “I’ve told you, I’m torn. I don’t want to let you go, nor do I want you to face those troubles.”

Seizing the moment, Shi Lan loosened the sash of Yan Shixiu’s bathrobe and then said, “Uncle Yan, instead of fretting over this, why not do something that makes one forget their troubles?”

Yan Shixiu looked at Shi Lan, their eyes locked for a few seconds, and then he reached out to turn off the bedside wall light, switching from passive to active.

Shi Lan silently noted Yan Shixiu’s words in her heart.

Perhaps it was because throughout those three years, the young lady constantly expressed an indifferent attitude toward everything, deeply affecting Yan Shixiu.

He was overly cautious with every step because he cared too much about her feelings.

What could he do about his earth-shattering beauty? He could only spoil her himself, but as to how specifically, she felt she still needed to seek further advice from Dr. Sun.

…

At five the next day, the sky was a brilliant blue, and the room was slightly chilly.

Yan Shixiu let go of Shi Lan, carefully lifted the covers, and got up; he had intended to let the young lady sleep a bit more, but she wrapped her arms around his waist: “Do we really have to get up at five?”

“If we wait any longer, we risk being seen,” Yan Shixiu replied.

“I’m close to wrapping up filming,” Shi Lan said somewhat groggily, “You don’t have to come to the set anymore. If there’s no night scene, I’ll just go back to the apartment.”

“Feeling sorry for me?”

“I suppose,” Shi Lan replied, getting out of bed afterward. “Yan, I remember your Japanese is pretty good, isn’t it?”

“What are you scheming?”

“I don’t have a scene this afternoon. You give me half of your work, and in exchange, I take your evening time to go out with me?”

Yan considered that the young lady wasn’t used to nocturnal outings, mostly wanting to “catch ghosts.” Since she asked about his Japanese, it meant he could employ that skill, so he answered, “Deal.”

The boss had decided to go fishing for a master tonight. Since she wanted to disguise herself as a Japanese woman, she definitely needed a translator. Tang Ze, Sun Ling, and Huo Zhao were not suitable; only Yan was the best choice.

Husband and wife teaming up made the work effortless.

After sharing a lingering kiss in the bathroom, Yan left the hotel.

After Uncle Yan had left, Shi Lan lost any desire to sleep and went downstairs for a morning run.

It wasn’t until eight in the morning that Sun Ling came to wake her, by which time the young lady had already had breakfast, read the script, and memorized her lines thoroughly.

“With Yan here, you don’t think to sleep in a bit,” Sun Ling remarked, rubbing her eyes while having breakfast at Shi Lan’s place.

Putting down the script, Shi Lan suddenly asked Sun Ling very seriously, “Uncle Yan still seems quite worried that I’ll abandon him. What exactly do I need to do for him to truly believe that I want to fully integrate into his life?”

“Boss, there’s nothing that can prove it, because everything depends on the details. You must express your stance even in the smallest things. Only feelings that accumulate over time are indestructible,” Sun Ling explained while drinking her milk, “Who let you be unrestrained for two lifetimes? You need to put yourself in his shoes, like how Gu Chengyu used to treat An Lan. Could you endure that?”

“Are you comparing me to Gu Chengyu?” The boss was immediately not pleased.

“All in all, you need to take the initiative to blend into Yan’s life, make him feel cared for, and let him know you can’t live without him. Boss, isn’t he indispensable to you?”

“What else?” Shi Lan retorted. Hadn’t she made herself clear last time?

“Let him feel it a few more times, then he’ll believe. Anytime, don’t leave him alone. Wait for him to eat together, wait for him to go home together, don’t walk ahead of him; you need to be by his side.”

“Dating is truly exhausting,” the boss grumbled.

“What else?”

But Sun Ling could see that the boss had taken these words to heart.

“Prepare a kimono for me this afternoon. Tonight, Yan and I are going fishing,” Shi Lan instructed.

“Got it,” Sun Ling nodded, but a moment later, she reacted, “You’re going with Yan?”

“Do you speak Japanese?” the young lady retorted.

Sun Ling shook her head.

“Take some time to look up Uncle Yan’s resume online,” the young lady said, knocking on Sun Ling’s head with the script and speaking in a tone of vicarious pride.

Sun Ling was stunned for a moment, then her curiosity soared. The boss’s resume was already intimidating, so what level was the man whom the boss had always admired and loved?
