Chapter 269: Small Happiness
In the morning, Wen Qianyi was awakened by her cat. This ti, she didn’t wait until she was outside to rember it; as she sat up, she already recalled that Li Yan was outside. Upon listening carefully, there was no sound outside, so she guessed that Li Yan was still asleep. Rembering that guy’s insistence on sleeping naked to avoid wrinkled clothes, she didn’t go out imdiately.
Hugging the kitten and playing with it for a while, she began to feel mischievous again. If she released the kitten and let it jump on him, would it scare him into jumping up?
She gently opened the door a bit and gestured for the kitten to go out, then hid behind the door to stifle her laughter, waiting for Li Yan’s scream. Soon, there would be a naked man running around!
But after waiting for a while, she didn’t hear any sound, leaving her puzzled. Was the cat too cowardly? There was a foreign object... um, a person in the house, and it had no reaction at all?
Opening the door and peeking out, Wen Qianyi was dumbfounded. Where was the naked sleeping guy? There was no sign of him at all! Li Yan had long since left!
A bit skeptical, she hurried out, and there was no one in the living room, bathroom, and certainly no one in the kitchen, not even on the balcony.
Looking at the empty living room, she doubted herself a bit. Was it an illusion? A dream? Had Li Yan never really co here?
How could she have such a dream? How could it be so realistic?
She went to the door and checked—it hadn’t been locked from the inside, indicating soone had opened the door to leave; then she returned to the bedroom and saw the concert tickets on the table...
She finally confird that Li Yan had indeed been here, and the "candlelit night chat" from last night was real; he had simply left ahead of her.
’Tomorrow, leave early by yourself. Don’t make wake up and see you lying here indecently again...’
Recalling last night’s instructions, Wen Qianyi chuckled silently. It seed he really listened and left obediently! She exhaled and went to the bathroom to freshen up. In her heart, she hoped Li Yan hadn’t really left but had gone out to buy breakfast.
...
Li Yan, who had left early, quickly cleaned up before heading out. He had indeed gone to buy breakfast! However, today was quite special, and he had too many things to do, making it inconvenient for him to return to Wen Qianyi’s place.
After buying breakfast and packing it up, he went to Hai Fu’s apartnt instead!
Having spent the night at one beauty’s house, yet buying breakfast to go to another beauty’s house in the sa building in the morning, it seed quite shaless. Even Li Yan felt a bit embarrassed.
Standing at Hai Fu’s door, he gave it a knock. Given last night’s experience, he didn’t want to play any gas. Otherwise, if Hai Fu appeared as a man, he doubted he could handle it.
No appointnts, no events, and with relatives coming over, Hai Fu was still lying in bed resting at this hour. The persistent knocking in the early morning annoyed her, and coming to the door, she impatiently said, "Who on earth is it so early?!"
Before confirming who it was, she wouldn’t open the door. Looking through the peephole, she saw a familiar, smiling face.
"It’s ."
"Li... Li Yan?" Hai Fu was imdiately flustered. Though she had asked him to co today, she hadn’t expected him to arrive so early! She had just woken up, her teeth hadn’t been brushed, and her face wasn’t washed! "You... you wait for a mont!"
Grooming was out of the question, but she could at least wipe her face, making sure she didn’t have eye crust. At the very least, she could brush her hair so it didn’t look like i Chaofeng’s.
However, when one is in a hurry, they often create more sses. While running back from the door, Hai Fu accidentally knocked over a stool, causing a loud crash and nearly tripping herself.
Li Yan, hearing the commotion from outside, didn’t know what she was doing inside; it sounded quite tragic. He hurriedly asked, "Are you okay? Let in first."
Inside, Hai Fu smiled wryly. She also felt she was taking it too seriously. She was no longer a young girl; why worry so much? At worst, let him see this ssy and dirty scene! Keeping him waiting outside, knocking, if neighbors ca out and saw, who knows what they might think?
Thinking this way, she took a deep breath, turned back to the door, and opened it.
Even though she opened the door, she still felt awkward. Youth ans beauty; a blooming young girl doesn’t need makeup, doesn’t need fashion, doesn’t need elegance—their innocence and naturalness highlight their youthful charm. Because she wasn’t a little girl anymore, she felt she should be more mindful of her image.
After opening the door, she didn’t pay attention to Li Yan and imdiately ran into the bathroom.
Closing the door by himself, Li Yan carried the breakfast inside. Seeing the overturned stool and Hai Fu’s cold reaction, he felt a bit awkward. Why did it seem like he was trying to destroy so evidence...
"Sit down yourself, I haven’t brushed my teeth or washed my face yet."
Upon hearing these words, which felt more natural, Li Yan understood. It seed that showing up unannounced, even if not hiding, still gave people quite the ’surprise.’ Won don’t like to be seen bare-faced, especially right after waking up with ssy hair and a dirty look.
"No rush, I didn’t see you have any eye boogers." Li Yan chuckled and replied to the bathroom.
Eye boogers! Hai Fu stumbled in the bathroom... She quickly opened her eyes wide at the mirror, thankfully... there were no eye boogers.
...
Ten minutes later, Hai Fu ca out of the bathroom.
Li Yan had tidied up the chairs, turned on the water dispenser to heat water, and set up the breakfast he bought, sitting there watching the news, waiting for her to co out.
This scene left her stunned, this feeling, this setting... it was so much like the hoy atmosphere she imagined!
Because she was alone, she often made do with breakfast effortlessly, when going to work it was milk and bread, when resting, she was too lazy to cook or go out, often skipping breakfast.
Having soone wake up earlier than her, prepare breakfast, and sit together to eat after freshening up. That’s complete living, eating with aning! She felt this was truly dining, while she only managed to fill her stomach on regular days...
Li Yan didn’t expect that the casual breakfast he bought and set up waiting to eat with her would make her so sentintal. During these past six months of "post-marriage" life, even though he didn’t have much verbal interaction with Zhang Yurong beforehand, having a housekeeper prepare breakfast and working in the sa company often ant eating breakfast with Zhang Yurong. It had beco very much a habit for him.
Seeing Hai Fu standing without speaking, Li Yan’s gaze oddly fell on her. At this mont, having just washed up without makeup, she appeared naturally stunning and clean as a lotus erging from water. Her hair was casually brushed over her shoulders; no black fra glasses; no black stockings; and no black suit... What surprised him was that she was wearing a silk camisole nightgown, and it was pink!
Perhaps the overly strict, unchanged dayti style led her to deliberately wear a completely different style of nightgown when being ho alone. Those majestic peaks, under the pink camisole nightgown’s accentuation, were spectacularly alluring, waves surging with stunning curves, rendering Li Yan a bit dumbfounded.
"Thank you..." Hai Fu approached and sat beside him, "I didn’t expect you to co so early, didn’t expect you to buy breakfast too..."
Earlier from a looking up angle, now closer, even seeing the cleavage, without any bra, there was cleavage, truly showcasing powerful assets!
"I figured you’d be lazy to eat breakfast, so I specially bought so. Actually, to avoid searching for a long ti, I ca over last night and spent the night in this building, so I could make it here early today."
Hai Fu smiled slightly, knowing he was exaggerating, yet him coming so early undoubtedly ant he got up early to co, which still touched her heart.
At this mont, Li Yan didn’t speak, suddenly leaned in, kissed her forehead, and handed her a cup of soy milk. "Drink so soy milk first, it’s still warm, to soothe the throat and warm the stomach."
This small gesture made Hai Fu slightly tremble; she hadn’t expected Li Yan to treat her this way!
Such a simple, inexpensive breakfast, along with a small affectionate gesture that wasn’t even a kiss, yet it reached her soul, giving her a feeling of happiness!
Yes, a feeling of happiness.
For years, Hai Fu worked hard so she could have a happy life and own a happy life. But one day she found herself lost. With a certain economic ability, a certain social ability, she not only hadn’t gained a happy life but even forgot what happiness tasted like!
Until eting Li Yan, indirectly, as he helped Shishan Yao overco his addiction, allowing him to return to his family. Watching her brother, sister-in-law, nephew’s family regain smiles, seeing that happy family made Hai Fu feel happiness too. Also, that touching mont of happiness led her to get drunk... But ultimately, she was happy for them, distanced. That ti at the seaside, she figured it out, wanting to pursue her own happiness.
These days, she hadn’t set eyes on other more suitable n, feeling many were hypocritical, she didn’t care for them, and of course, they didn’t care for her, afraid to. Conversely, she was increasingly concerned and attentive to this man whom the relationship began purely out of lust.
When Li Yan ntioned last night about inviting her to a concert, she was already excited, yet worried he was just placating her casually. Now he appeared early in the morning, brought a loving breakfast, set everything up so warmly, behaved so gently... All of it made Hai Fu feel her own small happiness!
Seeing her not speaking again, Li Yan sensed she was a bit odd today. Jokingly said: "Haha, this is real soy milk. Hesitating about what?"
Hai Fu snapped out of it by his words, blushed slightly, and took it: "Thank you."
"Tickets." Li Yan took out two tickets and placed them in Hai Fu’s hand. "I’m quite busy, so I won’t co pick you up. I wrote the ti on it, I’ll be waiting at the entrance on ti."
It was really an invitation to a concert... Hai Fu felt a huge wave of happiness, almost wondering if she was still dreaming and hadn’t woken up yet. (To be continued, to find out what happens next, please visit qidian, more Chapters available, support the author, support legitimate reading!)
