The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife-Chapter 2099 - Temperature (1)
Chapter 2099: Temperature (1)
With their fingers interlocked, a faint temperature was transmitted from their palms.
“Alright, let’s go back. I see that the fun is still going on, and we’re almost done.”
Leng Xinran’s low voice was heard.
“Alright, let’s go back.”
Lan Xiu agreed immediately.
Thus, the two of them left quietly together.
On the way back, the driver was Leng Xinran—
She did not drink much just now, but Lan Xiu drank quite a lot, so she had to be the driver.
Lan Xiu sat in the passenger seat at the side, looking very quiet. The air conditioner was not turned on in the car, but the windows were slightly open. The night breeze was very cool, and the music player in the car was also open.
Seeing that he was resting with his eyes closed, Leng Xinran quietly turned down the music and slightly raised the window.
“Is it very cold?”
Lan Xiu, who had his eyes closed, noticed that the window next to him was raised, so he asked in a low voice.
“Those who drink too much tend to get drunk more easily with the cold. When we get back I’ll get the servants to cook you a bowl of hangover soup.”
Leng Xinran steadily increased the speed of the car and simply closed the window.
“It’s fine. How can it be that easy to get drunk?”
Lan Xiu’s tone was very gentle. He opened his eyes and looked at her silently. However, he saw that her eyes were calm and her expression seemed particularly distant. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said, “I know that you don’t like this kind of events. If you don’t like it next time, don’t force yourself.”
“Did I make it very obvious?”
Hearing his words, Leng Xinran gave a low smile. There was no emotion in her tone.
Lan Xiu paused for a moment. He looked at her thoughtfully and replied, “A little.”
Only then did Leng Xinran let out a soft laugh and said calmly, “I’m not familiar with them either. It’s very difficult to blend in. However, since it’s your circle, I will naturally work hard to blend in. Don’t worry. I can’t avoid what needs to be met. You don’t have to worry about me. As long as things can develop in a positive way, I’ll be willing to try to cooperate.”
Leng Xinran made her position and thoughts very clear. Naturally, she did not want the two of them to feel estranged because of this. That was not what they wanted.
Lan Xiu was very satisfied with her rationality and comprehension. However, he felt a little sorry for her, especially since he lost his composure a little tonight. After a moment of silence, he said, “I understand. There’s no need to mind Liuyun’s existence. I’m dealing with my past relationships. I know that the life we have to face in the future is great. Liuyun is great, but it doesn’t belong to me. As for us, even if we don’t have any feelings for each other, we have to live together for the rest of our lives. I can clearly differentiate between us, so…”
“I can hear that you’re under a lot of pressure. I’m actually very satisfied with your honesty. Actually, you don’t have to worry about these things. Who doesn’t have a past? Besides, we’ve lived for dozens of years. Who doesn’t have some experience? It’s normal to have an unforgettable relationship. I’m not that kind of stupid and narrow-minded woman, but I don’t have the right to ask about your feelings in our current relationship. Didn’t you also not care about my past?”
Leng Xinran’s tone was calm. Lan Xiu looked at her for a long time, but he could not detect any change in her expression. It was as if she had always been like this. Indifferent as the wind, she seemed to have seen through everything.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Someone like her had experienced too many things, even more than Lan Xiu and Dongfang Liuyun. What could she not see through?
At least, he, Lan Xiu, could not be in the same state of mind as Leng Xinran.
“I’ve told you before, the two of us are still evenly matched. It’s good that we’re evenly matched. I think our current state is what I want the most.”
Leng Xinran did not hide her thoughts.
“Is that so?”
Lan Xiu gave her a meaningful glance. “What if… What if I want us to have a deeper relationship and to develop it?”
Leng Xinran was stunned for a moment when Lan Xiu said this. She subconsciously slowed down the car and glanced at him. After a long while, her indifferent red lips said, “You want to marry me?”
“Why not?”
Lan Xiu immediately agreed. He thought for a moment, “We’ve been engaged for a long time. Isn’t everything going well now?”
Lan Xiu had imagined that they would get married. He did not reject the idea at all. Moreover, he vaguely looked forward to this kind of life.
It was probably because he was tired of living that lonely life. Now that he had someone to accompany him, he wanted to change his lifestyle.
Lan Xiu also convinced himself in his heart.
However, Leng Xinran listened but did not answer. She just silently increased the speed of the car.
After that, the two of them did not say anything more. When they drove into the villa area, Leng Xinran suddenly remembered what she had said to Qin Su and said, “It’s my mother’s birthday in a few days. I will go there personally. Qin Su and Zhou Zimo said that they will come too. You…”
“That’s good too. It’ll be more lively with more people. Didn’t your mother miss Qin Su before? She’s a good friend of yours. It’s good that the two of you meet often.”
Lan Xiu naturally supported Leng Xinran since he knew that she valued Qin Su as a good friend.
Leng Xinran nodded when she heard this. “Let’s set off early that day. Let’s see if her condition is stable recently and take a look at the situation here. If it’s possible, let’s see if she wants to return to City Z after some time.”
Occasionally, Leng Xinran would be a little worried if Mo Shaolan was left alone there, so she came up with the same idea.
“Okay, I’ll make the arrangements.”
Lan Xiu also agreed with Leng Xinran’s idea.
While they were talking, the car had already driven into Lan Xiu’s villa. The car steadily stopped at the parking lot at the side.
The two of them got out of the car unhurriedly. As soon as they reached home, Leng Xinran asked the servant to prepare the hangover soup for Lan Xiu. Lan Xiu went upstairs and said that he wanted to take a shower.
Leng Xinran sat on the sofa in the living room for a while and watched the finance channel.
“Miss Leng, the hangover soup is ready. Do you want me to send it up to Pesident Lan first?”
The servant carried the freshly prepared hangover soup and asked Leng Xinran for instructions.
Leng Xinran turned her head and thought for a moment before turning off the TV. “I’ll take it up. It’s quite late. You should rest early.”
“Okay. Thank you, Miss Leng.”
The servant said respectfully.
Leng Xinran walked over, took the tray from the servant, and went upstairs at a leisurely pace.
Lan Xiu’s door was open. Leng Xinran knocked on the door, but no one answered. After thinking for a moment, she pushed the door open and walked in.
At this time, Lan Xiu had just walked out of his bedroom. He had just finished bathing and was only wearing a dark blue nightgown. He was casually tying the sash around his waist…
