The reason for his procrastination was not for anything else, but simply because he didn't dare to look back at Xuanxuan.

The fire in his heart was already burning now, and he was afraid that if he continued to watch, the fire would burn stronger and stronger, and he would not be able to control himself.

But today, for some unknown reason, his normally shrewd and calm mind went crazy, replaying the scene just now in his mind.

No matter how much he tried to shake the scene out of his mind, it was to no avail.

After dawdling for a while, he simply gave up, straightened up and turned to look at Xuanxuan, only to see Xuanxuan's red face.

"Thank you...for causing you trouble."

Xuanxuan lowered her head slightly, not daring to look at Zhan Yannan.

Because Zhan Yannan's whole body was wet with water, his white shirt clung tightly to his body, and his sharp and distinct muscles could be seen.

The water droplets flowed down his hair to his Adam's apple, which made him feel sexy in a different way.

At this time, Zhan Yannan finally realized that he was soaked all over.

He quickly pulled out a bath towel from the shelf, put it on himself, and said, "Let's go out first. This thing probably won't be repaired tonight. I'll ask a master to come over and take a look tomorrow."

"it is good."

Xuanxuan responded, and just when she was about to turn around and go out, she accidentally stepped on the water on the ground, her soles slipped, and she was about to fall back.

When Zhan Yannan saw this, he quickly reached out to hold her; Xuanxuan used her strength and threw herself into Zhan Yannan's arms without noticing.

Zhan Yannan's hands were around her waist, and her hands were pressed tightly against Zhan Yannan's chest.

Xuanxuan was frightened and looked at Zhan Yannan blankly, completely unaware of how ambiguous their current posture was.

But Zhan Yannan realized it.

His eyes traced Xuanxuan's facial features, and finally his eyes fell on her plump and pink lips.

Zhan Yannan's arms around Xuanxuan tightened subconsciously, and his breathing became much heavier.

He really wanted to kiss her like this and rub the person he had thought about for so many years into his arms.

His small change also awakened the stunned Xuanxuan. After she realized what she was doing, she immediately pushed Zhan Yannan away.

With such a push from her, Zhan Yannan, who had been immersed in his own reverie just now, immediately came back to his senses.

He looked at the empty palms and felt that his heart had also become empty.

"I...I..." Xuanxuan's face was so red that it was almost bleeding, and she started to talk nonsense, "I didn't mean it...it wasn't...I...thank you for catching me..."

At the same time, Ning Qing followed Zhan Shutong's words and came to the lotus pond to find the two children to eat.

"Eh? Why is there no one? I remember my brother and aunt are here!"

Zhan Shutong searched the entire lotus pond, but was surprised to find no one.

Ning Qing looked around and said, "Is it in the rose garden in front? Let's go and have a look."

The mother and daughter looked forward while talking, still calling Zhan Yannan and Xuanxuan's names.

Soon, the two people heard Ning Qing calling them.

"Mom is here to tell us to eat. Let's go out first."

Seeing Xuanxuan's helpless look, Zhan Yannan suddenly felt a little distressed; Ning Qing happened to be here, so he used this excuse to go out with Xuanxuan.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the bathroom, Ning Qing and Zhan Shutong came towards them.

As soon as she saw them both wet like this, Ning Qing became a little anxious, "Why are they so wet?"

She hugged Xuanxuan and wiped her hair with a bath towel, just in case she caught a cold.

"The faucet inside is broken. We need to find workers to repair it tomorrow." Zhan Yannan explained.

Immediately afterwards, Xuanxuan said sheepishly: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I broke the things at home."

"What's there to be embarrassed about?!" Ning Qing said angrily, "This is your home, what do you have to be sorry for if you break things in your home?"

As she said this, she started to laugh, "You forgot, you broke so many things at home when you were a child, and you got scolded by your mother every time!"

The mother in Ning Qing's mouth was naturally referring to Qiao Yuxian. Xuanxuan heard the closeness in her words and her heart immediately calmed down.

She knew that her elder brother and sister-in-law loved her very much, but after all, they had not seen each other for so many years, so she was afraid that they would be a little unfamiliar with each other; and if she broke other people's things, it would be even more embarrassing.

Now that Ning Qing said this, she felt that they were much closer to each other, as if they had never been apart before. She was still the little girl who grew up under the care of her elder brother and sister-in-law.

Ning Qing helped her dry her hair, then hugged her and went upstairs. As he walked, he said: "Go back and take a hot bath. Sister-in-law asked your elder brother to make some ginger soup. After you take a bath, come down and drink it." Warm yourself with some ginger soup.”

"it is good."

Xuanxuan complied obediently, took her clothes into the bathroom, and came out after taking a shower.

She blew her hair a little and thought it was almost done, then opened the door and prepared to go out.

As a result, as soon as the door opened, he met Zhan Yannan face to face.

Xuanxuan then remembered that Zhan Yannan's room was opposite hers, and Zhan Shutong's room was on the third floor, connected with Ning Qing and Zhan Chuyao's.

"Let's go downstairs. Our parents should be waiting for us downstairs."

With that said, he went downstairs without looking back.

It's not that he didn't wait for Xuanxuan, but that when he saw Xuanxuan now, he would think of her alluring look just now.

He finally put out the fire, but he couldn't let it ignite again.

Fortunately, Xuanxuan didn't think much and followed him downstairs.

After going downstairs and arriving at the dining room, I saw Zhan Chuyao smiling and saying something to the person on the other end of the phone, "Xuanxuan is down. Do you want to talk to her?"

The other party probably agreed, so Zhan Chuyao thrust the phone into Xuanxuan's hand, "Mom's call, answer it quickly!"

When Xuanxuan heard this, her eyes immediately lit up. She answered the phone and said in a cheerful tone, "Mom!"

"Hey!" Qiao Yuxian was extremely happy when she heard Xuanxuan's voice, "You haven't been home for many years, are you used to living here now?"

"It's good. My sister-in-law has tidied up a new room for me. It's beautiful!"

"Okay, okay, as long as you like it." Qiao Yuxian said with a smile: "Now that we have arrived in the capital, we should live well at home and let your sister-in-law take care of you. You and Tongtong will be close to each other."

"She hasn't seen you, my little aunt, since she was born. She used to pester me all day long to tell you about you, but now we finally meet her."

"Tongtong is very well-behaved and pretty. Her eyes look like those of my sister-in-law."

When Xuanxuan said this, Zhan Shutong immediately laughed.

She likes her eyes the most, they are big and bright. My little aunt is so discerning!
