C79 I like It a Lot

The last two words seemed to strike at the heart.

Lin Wanbai's breathing trembled. She thought she had offended him, so she looked at him nervously. She saw no signs of displeasure between his brows, but the look in her eyes was a little dark like that of a ancient well.

His hand was suddenly grabbed, and he staggered forward.

Lin Wanbai squatted in front of him like a little dog due to her strength and posture.

If he wanted to stand up, his forehead would be tapped with his index finger, and he would easily press it back down. His face was just inches away, and the distance between them was extremely ambiguous.

Huo Changyuan's aura drifted over to her, "Is just one sentence of Happy Birthday over?"

Lin Wanbai was a little flustered. "Shall I go cook your birthday noodles?"

"Already eaten." Huo Changyuan was very hard.

"Ugh." Lin Wanbai thought about it and asked, feeling conflicted, "Why don't I sing a birthday song for you?"

"The plum blossom version?" Huo Changyuan raised his eyebrows.

"No …" Lin Wanbai was embarrassed.

She only knew how to sing a few plum blossoms, but she had never practiced Happy Birthday Song before …

Huo Changyuan pursed his lips and stared at her closely for a while. Then, he lowered his arms onto his knees and said, "Are you really not prepared for anything?"

If he remembered correctly, Jiang Fang reminded him in the car a week ago.

After so many days, he finally had enough time to prepare.

Every year, there would be a lot of people giving gifts for her birthday, but Liu Haowang didn't care at all. Some of them had even stayed in the warehouse for years without being opened. He didn't know why, but he had been looking forward to receiving something from her for a long time.

"Mm …" Lin Wanbai nodded.

Seeing that his face was extremely bad, he carefully added, "My apologies."

"Forget it!" Huo Changyuan repeated himself again, but it was a bit heavier than before. Then he suddenly stood up from the sofa and fiercely said to her, "Take a bath and sleep!"

Lin Wanbai cowered in disappointment.

He had a nagging feeling that he wouldn't let her off easily when he was in bed.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Wanbai followed suit and stood up, but based on the location, the coffee table beside her could feel the thing in the bag that was hidden behind her, which was squeezed out with a "clang" sound.

Afraid that he would find out, he hurriedly turned around to pick it up.

However, it was already too late. Huo Changyuan already stretched out his arm, "What is this?"

"Ugh …" Lin Wanbai faltered.

Huo Changyuan weighed the square box in his hand. It was slightly bigger than his palm, because it was wrapped in brown kraft paper, it was hard to tell what was inside.

He suddenly thought of something and raised his eyebrows. "A present?"

Lin Wanbai didn't say anything, but her expression was one of embarrassment.

At this point, all he could do was watch as he ripped apart the layer of brown paper. His heart was pounding in nervousness.

The box opened to reveal an electric razor.

When Huo Changyuan raised his hand, it was also filled with joy, "Didn't you say that you're not prepared for anything?"

Lin Wanbai's eyelashes trembled as she mumbled embarrassedly, "Just now, Jiang Fang's bag was full of nameplates, and I even saw the car keys. How can I bring it out …"

She hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to buy him a present.

She called her best friend and recommended a lighter or a razor. The former was too ambiguous, so she chose the latter. She didn't have to go to the mall during lunch break to buy it.

Lin Wanbai raised her head and coincidentally bumped into the pair of deep and serene eyes.

Right now, the interior was still as deep as a ancient well, but there were a few traces of a rare light. The light was too unfamiliar and dazzling, causing people to be unable to resist asking about it before sinking back into the depths.

Lin Wanbai looked away, distracted.

She pretended to be calm as she stood up and tried to change the topic, "This is a domestically made brand, I've never bought this kind of thing before and I don't understand it either. The shop assistant has recommended it, I don't know if you like it …"

As he spoke, he reached out his hand to explain the functions.

However, before he could even touch the tip of his finger, he dodged it all of a sudden.

"Don't move, mine!"

Huo Changyuan frowned and leaned over half his body.

Lin Wanbai was slightly startled, as if she didn't expect such a huge reaction. She opened her mouth and saw that he was already walking upstairs with a razor in his hand, leaving her with only a view of his back.

Amidst the sound of footsteps coming upstairs, he kept his head down.

Not long after he had showered, Lin Wanbai, who was lying on the pillow, was pulled over by him and pressed down on top of her.

When his kiss fell, she melted with it.

The torn aluminum foil bag was thrown onto the ground. Huo Changyuan looked down and said, "Call me by my name."

"Uh, Huo Changyuan …"

Lin Wanbai licked her lips and obediently did as he said.

Just because he said that he was the first one to do so made his tongue quiver.

Huo Changyuan's eyes turned even redder. "Say it again!"

"Huo Changyuan …"

"Continue!"

"Huo Changyuan …"

"..."

The next morning, when Lin Wanbai woke up, her waist was still sore and her legs were sore.

His voice was also somewhat hoarse. Last night, he had ordered her to call out his name countless times, but no one knew what sort of evil taste it was. He only remembered that every time he called out, the redness in his eyes grew stronger.

She washed her face in cold water and was surprised when the towel was hung back.

The razor she had given him last night was placed on the washstand, and the original one had been thrown inside the dustbin.

Lin Wanbai's gaze moved back and forth in disbelief.

If her eyesight was not bad, then his razor, which was originally imported, would be at a much higher price than hers …

When he went downstairs, the black Bentley was still standing there.

During peak hours, the car driving was slightly slower and didn't idle around. Jiang Fang, who was at the front, held the documents and PDA in his hand as he respectfully reported to Huo Changyuan about the journey and arrangements for the rest of the day.

Whether it was intentional or not, Huo Changyuan kept rubbing his chin.

No stubble, clean.

Lin Wanbai thought of the imported razor blade that had been thrown inside the dustbin, and turned back to look outside the window in panic.

Arriving at the office building, Jiang Fang opened the car door for her and thanked her for leaving.

"Wait."

Huo Changyuan suddenly stopped her.

Lin Wanbai was puzzled and stopped her actions to turn around. "..." "What's wrong?"

Huo Changyuan didn't say anything. Instead, he leaned towards her upper body. His facial features gradually enlarged in each other's eyes. Then, without any warning, he kissed her.

It was not as hot or spicy as the other. It was more like a dragonfly touching the water.

Lin Wanbai's movements were also very fast, to the point that she didn't even have the time to react.

Huo Changyuan had already sat back down, his thin lips made a small curve, "I really like it."

The black Bentley slowly drove away, and not long later, it merged into the traffic.

Lin Wanbai blinked her eyes. She had been blushing ever since she got off the car and stood there stupidly. Although she knew what he meant by "like", it was still like an interaction between lovers.

Heavens, what was she daydreaming about!?
