”Yes!” Of course he could wait. Hadn't he come to stay with her a little longer?

Qiao Xuan turned and entered the kitchen, using his fastest speed to beat up the egg and pour in the flour, stirring it evenly.

Hearing footsteps behind her, she turned around and saw Sheng Qian, the cat, enter the house. ”You don't have to watch me here, I promise I won't poison you.”

Sheng Qian smiled flirtatiously, ”That may not be true. I'm so handsome, you can't make a choice between me and Third Brother, so you might as well poison me to death and get over it.”

”I've seen narcissists, but I've never seen one as narcissistic as you.” Qiao Xuan rolled his eyes at him, but still couldn't hold back his laughter.

The moment Sheng Qian saw her smile, his expression changed for a moment; this was something he had never seen before.

He looked at her blankly for a long while, until he saw Qiao Xuan turning around unnaturally.

Realizing that he had lost his composure, he asked with a disguised smile, ”Is there anything I can help you with?”

Because of his earlier gaze, Qiao Xuan became a bit uncomfortable, and she stammered: ”Then, heat up the milk.”

Qiao Xuan baked the cake and Sheng Qian heated up the milk. The two of them did not speak for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

”How about... You can go out first. The cake won't be ready for a while. ” Qiao Xuan suggested.

Sheng Qian acknowledged her as he turned and walked out.

When he arrived at the living room, he just so happened to see Sheng Liang come back, and called out with a smile: ”Third Brother, you're back.”

Upon entering the courtyard, Sheng Liang saw Sheng Qian's car, so when he saw him, he was not surprised at all: ”Are you looking for me, or for her?”

Sheng Qian walked over and stood in front of Sheng Liang. He was still smiling like a fox: ”Third brother, do you still remember what you said in Verona? I have decided now, I will promise you that.”
