150 I Miss You (2/2)

”I miss you and I want to see you right now. Come home as soon as you're done with work. Hurry.”

”Alright.” Her words had struck him in a sweet spot, causing his heart to flutter.

Jin Qinyan could not stop grinning from ear to ear after ending the call. Puzzled at his reaction, the elderly man asked, ”Young Sir…”

”Why?”

”Your smile is getting pretty creepy.”

Jin Qingyan stopped smiling and cleared his throat. ”Let's continue where we left off and settle it tonight.”

”You don't have to tire yourself out, Young Sir. We can continue tomorrow as well.”

”Old Chang, I'll have to return home tonight,” Jin Qingyan said in all seriousness.

”…”

An Xiaoning had a dream while she was asleep at night. She dreamed that she was taken to an unknown place with her eyes blindfolded and her limbs shackled to chains, leaving her with no means of moving at all.

In the dream, she felt as hopeless as a sheep that was waiting to be slaughtered. The overwhelming feeling of despair and helplessness jolted her awake, causing her to be unable to fall asleep for the rest of the night.

Having encountered the premonition of drowning in her dreams previously, she began to think that this too was another premonition for an impending disaster.

An Xiaoning was kept wide awake throughout the night, only managing to fall asleep after daybreak the next morning.

It was dawn when Jin Qingyan arrived back at home.

Thinking that she was already awake, he entered their bedroom, only to find that she was still in a deep sleep.

Jin Qingyan turned on the heater and headed downstairs for breakfast, after which he proceeded to bring her her share, which he then placed onto the table.

Standing beside the bed, a smile of pleasure formed on his face as he gazed at her adoringly.

He bent forward to kiss An Xiaoning on the cheek, waking her up from her sleep as she opened her eyes slowly.

An Xiaoning could not believe her eyes when she woke up to the sight of him.

”You're back?”

”Yes, because you summoned me. I've brought you breakfast,” he answered while adjusting her pillow for her and caressing her face.

Kneeling on the bed, she leaned forward to give him a big hug while inhaling his unique scent. ”You came home for me?”

”Yes, for you.”

”I have to use the washroom, I'm so close to peeing my pants.”

She pushed him away and zoomed towards the washroom after putting on her home slippers.

Jin Qingyan burst into laughter at the amusing sight of her being in such a hurry.

After washing up, An Xiaoning exited the washroom and pulled her long locks back into a ponytail before removing the lid of her bottle of toner. ”You're going to bed in broad daylight?” she asked, watching him undress himself in the reflection of the mirror at the dressing table.

”I didn't manage to catch a wink at all last night. Care to join me?”

”You have to wait for me to finish my breakfast first,” she said with pouted lips as she slathered some lotion onto her face.

”Sure, no hurry, I'll wait for you,” he answered, leaning against the bedhead while keeping his eyes fixed on her.

”Why are you staring at me like that? You look like you're going to devour me.”

”Your sixth sense is pretty accurate, eh?” He reached a hand out to caress her waist as his hormones began raging.
