Bai Xiaoxiao’s breath hitched!
Her hands slowly lifted, returning the embrace.
At the mont she hugged him back, Luo Haofeng’s lips curled into a warm, satisfied smile. He pulled back a bit, looked down at her, and asked, "Xiaoxiao, how are things going here?"
"Have you had dinner?"
Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t answer but instead asked, as the trouble here couldn’t be solved quickly.
But if he doesn’t eat, he’d have to endure hunger.
Evidently, Bai Xiaoxiao was more concerned about whether Luo Haofeng was hungry.
This made Luo Haofeng feel very touched inside.
With a gentle smile, he answered truthfully, "I haven’t had dinner yet. I ca to see you directly after getting off the plane."
Especially after hearing from Mo Xiuchen that ng Ke had gone to Bali Island, if he rushed here from Bali to see Xiaoxiao, she would be least safe alone.
Luo Haofeng’s heart was in suspense, not caring about eating; he hurried straight to find her right after getting off the plane without delaying a minute.
Only after seeing her did his heart finally settle.
Bai Xiaoxiao felt a warmth in her heart, "You’ve co here; what about G City and your company?"
Has he ignored his own matters for her?
"Qiao Siyi is still in G City and will handle things there. The company won’t collapse without for a few days."
What Luo Haofeng said seed indifferent; if the company would collapse without him for a few days, then there wouldn’t be a need to go back at all.
Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t think so.
His coming here probably ant he had planned not to return until he helped her solve the trouble, and that couldn’t be done in just a few days.
She gazed into his long, narrow eyes, seeing herself reflected in their depths, the warmth in her heart spreading to every part of her body, unable to not be touched by his journey to help her.
"I have so connections here, plus Haochen is here; he has a bit of a social circle too."
Aside from Mo Xiuchen, Gu Kai also told Luo Haofeng to find his father Gu Yan’s good friend if any issues arose.
Anyway, all usable connections and relationships would be utilized at crucial monts.
Even if none of the other connections could be used, Luo Haofeng’s presence was a form of strength for her.
"We’ll talk about work later. What do you want to eat? Should we go out or eat at ho?"
Although Bai Xiaoxiao had returned to the country, she hadn’t sold her previous apartnt, so staying in it while on a business trip was more convenient than a hotel.
Luo Haofeng glanced around her room, casually said, "Let’s eat at ho. You can cook a bowl of noodles."
"I don’t have much, but there are noodles. I’ll make them for you."
Bai Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow; cooking noodles wasn’t difficult for her.
Luo Haofeng nodded, releasing his hold on her waist, bending to lift his suitcase, softly said, "You cook the noodles, I’ll take a shower first."
Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes flickered, eting his amused gaze; her heart, which had finally cald down, skipped a beat.
Suddenly she understood.
He’d been so gentlemanly earlier because he hadn’t showered.
After a long flight, feeling dirty.
Thinking this, her cheeks involuntarily heated.
Luo Haofeng saw her shyness, the smile on his lips deepened, "Xiaoxiao, let’s do sothing else after I’ve showered and eaten."
"Sothing else? I’m going to make the noodles for you."
Bai Xiaoxiao hurriedly fled before Luo Haofeng could speak again.
Watching her escape silhouette, Luo Haofeng chuckled mischievously.
Xiaoxiao was shy.
A shy Xiaoxiao was truly adorable.
He chuckled twice and then dragged his suitcase to the room to shower.
**
In the kitchen, listening to Luo Haofeng’s retreating sounds, Bai Xiaoxiao turned her head to glance over.
Not seeing his figure, the living room was quiet, but her heart felt warm, knowing he was there, accompanying her, bringing a sense of security.
Ten minutes later, Luo Haofeng, freshly showered, and Bai Xiaoxiao, with her noodles cooked, sat together at the dining table.
In front of him was the egg and tomato noodles Bai Xiaoxiao had just cooked.
The aroma of eggs and tomatoes perated the air, very appetizing.
Looking at his refreshed, handso face post-shower, Bai Xiaoxiao lightly spoke.
"If it’s not enough, I’ll make more for you."
Luo Haofeng shook his head, smiling, "This will be enough; I’m afraid if I eat too much, Xiaoxiao will dislike ."
Bai Xiaoxiao gave him a teasing glance, "No problem, I’ll just consider it raising a pig."
Luo Haofeng raised his brows, his hand brushing over his handso face, "Xiaoxiao, have you ever seen a pig as handso as I am?"
If there truly existed such handso pigs, every woman in the world would be vying to raise one.
Bai Xiaoxiao burst into laughter, "Whether handso or not, isn’t that up to others to say?"
"I’m not boasting, just stating facts, and it’s the sa no matter who says it."
Luo Haofeng, with an air that only he was the most handso in the world, made Bai Xiaoxiao laugh uncontrollably.
"If you were really a pig, no matter how handso, I couldn’t raise you forever. I’d sell you sooner or later."
Luo Haofeng’s smile and pride got replaced by feeling wronged, looking at Bai Xiaoxiao with complaint: Are you silly? Selling such a handso pig?
Looking good won’t fill your stomach, but selling it could bring money!
Bai Xiaoxiao brightly gazed at him, contemplating whether a pig this handso could fetch a high price.
"Xiaoxiao, are you thinking about how much I’d sell for?"
Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes flickered, "Why don’t you tell , how much are you worth?"
"Priceless."
Bai Xiaoxiao pouted, "If that’s the case, I can’t sell you – I’d have to raise you forever. No, I’ll sell you even if it’s at a low price."
Luo Haofeng pursed his lips at such an unkind owner, silently picked up his chopsticks to eat his noodles quietly.
Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t speak anymore, just sat quietly beside him, her expression suffused with a gentle warmth.
The dining room was silent for a while, save for the faint sounds of Luo Haofeng eating noodles.
Yet, the atmosphere wasn’t awkward; occasionally when he looked up at Bai Xiaoxiao, her gaze was always there, waiting quietly and tenderly.
His lips curled with a satisfied smile as he resud eating noodles with elegance and focus.
Warm, sweet air flowed around them.
Such tranquility life was simply perfect.
