Chapter 512: Reunion

When she came out of the bathroom, she blew dried her hair, kicked off her shoes and laid down on the bed while hugging a pillow. The pillow had Lu Yi’s scent on it, a kind of faint fresh Mujin flower scent, a very clean fragrance. The smell of the blanket that had been under the sun for a long time was refreshing as well.

Hmm, she pulled the blanket over her and sniffed it. Yes, this is Lu Yi’s scent. Lu Yi must have dried the blanket. She loved sleeping in blankets that had been dried out in the sun. It felt as if she was hugging the Sun itself, its warmth making her feel safe and drowsy.

She rolled underneath the blankets and fell asleep almost immediately.

When Lu Yi parked his car in the underground garage, he noticed that the parking space that belonged to Yan Huan’s car was occupied.

His gorgeous lips curved upwards.

She’s home.

He unlocked the front door and pushed it open. He sensed another person’s presence in the house, confirming that indeed, she was back.

He bent down to retrieve his slippers from the shoe cabinet, also noticing that the other pair of lady’s house slippers was gone.

He treaded lightly as he entered the bedroom, his eyes falling on Yan Huan who was sleeping peacefully in bed. She seemed worn out as she slept soundly without waking up to him arriving back home. Normally, she was a very light sleeper and would wake up at the slightest noise, but maybe she was really exhausted after just getting off of a plane.

He went over and sat down on the bed. Lu Yi pulled the blankets to ensure that she was tucked in properly. It was fortunate that he arrived home earlier than usual, or else he would not have known that she gave him such a surprise today.

Was this a surprise especially for him?

He caressed Yan Huan’s smooth and perfect face, and felt the warm yet cool skin, it was the same feeling as before.

However... it seemed that she had became skinnier than before.

Lu Yi stood up and sat outside. He took out his laptop and finished up the work he brought home from the procuratorate. A meeting was canceled today at the last minute, if he had not arrived home earlier, he really would have missed the surprise Yan Huan gave him.

Yan Huan twitched underneath the blanket and rubbed her eyes sleepily. She wanted to continue sleeping but a hand kept poking her face.

“Don’t.” She turned her face to the other side in discomfort. However, the hand seemed to follow her everywhere, and tapped her face lightly.

“Wake up.”

Yan Huan finally opened her eyes, and saw the man sitting by her side. She rubbed her half-closed eyes and did not show any dramatic reaction towards him. Perhaps she was too sleepy.

“How did you come back? Don’t you need to go to work?” She sat up but fell toward Lu Yi’s direction, letting him catch her in his arms. “Did you come over here to watch me act?”

Lu Yi was torn between tears and laughter. Maybe she has not woken up yet.

“Wake up. You need to eat dinner first before you can go back to sleep.”

He glanced at his watch. It was almost dark, she would need to have a meal soon.

“I ate already. I had the production’s bento meal,” said Yan Huan as she clutched Lu Yi’s shirt, which indicated that she was not fully awake yet. She continued, “I ate the bento meal and there was a lot of meat. There was beef, chicken and duck.”

“Hm, you ate meat,” Lu Yi repeated her words and pulled the covers over her. He looked at the time and decided that it was fine to let her sleep for a while, as she had just gotten off the plane. It was normal for her to feel fatigued.

When Yan Huan had finally slept enough and woke up, she felt that something was off. She smelled a familiar scent, it was the Mujin flower scent, mixed with Sea City’s air and also the scent of pine.

Then, she raised her face but accidentally hit Lu Yi’s chin with her head. It was so painful that tears came out of her eyes. When a jaw collided with the top of a skull, you would think that it would be painful for both parties, but he seemed unfazed.

He patted her head and sighed. He was unsure of the look she gave him, was it helplessness or other feelings?

“Is it painful?” He had her seated and massaged her injured head lightly. It was this sharp, jarring pain that made Yan Huan wake up completely.

“When did you get back?” she asked and held his palm tightly, “Why didn’t you look surprised? I told you I wanted to give you a surprise, but in the end, there is no surprise and also no joy, but there is pain.”

“I’ve just arrived,” Lu Yi answered her as he continued to rub her head, “It’s already dark, what would you like to eat? I will order some food for you later.”

“Yes, please!” Yan Huan wrapped her arms around his neck happily.

“Darling, I kept eating meat over there. Can I eat more vegetables? I am tired of having meat,” said Yan Huan, blinking her eyes at him, putting on a sad and pitiful expression. Other people suffered because they were not able to eat meat, however, she suffered for not being able to eat vegetables.

My dear Yan Huan, you would really do anything just to eat vegetables.

Lu Yi looked at her helplessly and pinched her cheeks. Then, he acquiesced, “Okay, I will let you eat vegetables, my little rabbit.”

Yes, rabbits do not eat meat, so she was a rabbit, he thought.

Yan Huan clung to Lu Yi’s neck tightly, and rubbed her cheek against his in an adoring manner. She could feel his body temperature rising, it was so hot that she could get scalded at any second.

Then, she laid her head against his chest. Hmm, it seems that her period would happen in a few days, so sometimes, she can get quite emotional.

“I just bathed,” she said, her face feeling scalding hot too.

Lu Yi did not care much for that. He had been living the life of a monk for the past few months. Hmm, if Yan Huan likes eating vegetables, then I like meat better. He gently slid his hand under Yan Huan’s clothes and when his fingers touched her skin, both of them felt the electricity that sparked between them.

It was said that brief partings made reunions sweeter than a honeymoon. Furthermore, they had not been together for a few months.

Not long after, a food delivery man dressed in a red shirt arrived. Upon looking at the familiar door number, he felt helpless.

Why is it this place again?

He lowered his cap and approached the door helplessly. He pressed the doorbell and waited.

He hoped that the occupants of that house would allow a smooth delivery so that he could proceed onwards to his next delivery.

Could he not do any more deliveries to this house? Could he?

The man of this house was really terrifying.

Shortly after, the door to the house swung open. It was still the man, wearing a fluffy white bathrobe. He was tall and muscular, his exposed arms indicating how strong he was and his muscles were bulging slightly. This man was the kind where he could pull off any type of clothes and still look muscular in it.

The delivery man swallowed instinctively. He really admired this kind of man. That man was tall and well-built, so normally people would not find any fault with him, unlike himself, who looked like a runt next to that guy.
