Mrs. Lu, Mr. Lu will come back and spend the night tonight.

Su Mubai agreed to let her go back, and this time Lin Ai finally turned around and walked towards the building.

When she entered the door of the building, she couldn't help but turn around and waved to Su Mubai, indicating that Su Mubai should go back early as well.

Lin Ai looked back every three steps, and Su Mubai couldn't help but laugh.

It felt good to see someone looking back at him and waving to him.

He put his hands back into his pockets out of habit, and did not immediately return to the car and leave until Lin Ai's figure disappeared from his sight.

lonely.

Over the years, every time he saw Lu Beicheng, Gu Nanyue and the others in pairs, and saw Lu Jingyang's family so lively, the biggest feeling in his heart was loneliness.

Although he lived at home most of the time and could see his parents when he looked up, his biggest feeling was still loneliness.

I always feel empty inside, and I always feel like I don’t belong anywhere or to anyone.

Occasionally, when I am alone after work, this feeling is even stronger, especially when it is late at night and everyone is asleep.

He could clearly feel his loneliness, but he was helpless in solving it. Until these two times with Lin Ai, his loneliness seemed to disappear.

Is it because she looks like Cheng Jian?

At this moment, Su Mubai couldn't explain the feeling.

He stood there with his hands in his pockets, looking at the building for a long time, until his thoughts slowly calmed down, and until the familiar feeling of loneliness came over him again. Only then did Su Mubai turn around, get in the car, start the car and leave Lin Ai's community.

upstairs.

After Lin Ai got off the elevator, she thought about how she had just taken the initiative to approach Su Mubai and kiss him, so she raised her hands and held her face.

She put her hands on her face, puffed her face and let out a long breath.

It must be because the night was too dark that she was so impulsive just now. Besides, if she didn't coax Su Mubai, Su Mubai would definitely not let her go home.

Lin Ai comforted herself and made excuses for herself.

Later, after standing at the door for a long time, Lin Ai took her hands off her face, opened the door and went in.

As a result, as soon as she opened the door and entered the house, she saw Lin Chen standing in the middle of the living room, and he looked like he was about to go out.

However, at this moment, her parents had already gone to bed.

Seeing Lin Ai coming back, Lin Chen's frown finally relaxed, and then he looked his sister up and down.

Lin Chen looked at her, and Lin Ai felt guilty. She said, "What are you looking at? Didn't I just tell you that a colleague came over for something, and I'll be back after I finish talking to him."

When explaining this, Lin Ai didn't dare to look Lin Chen in the eye, but she comforted herself in her heart that she didn't lie, and Su Mubai was just a colleague.

Lin Ai explained, but Lin Chen just looked at her and asked seriously: "Sister, are you in love?"

As a man, his intuition told him that the person his sister had just met downstairs was a man, and not the female colleague she mentioned.

Even though she was wearing pajamas, he could still feel that she was going to meet a man.

Lin Chen asked her if she was in love, and Lin Ai's expression changed again and again.

Finally, I don’t know what color to use.

But he still pretended to be calm and looked at Lin Chen and said, "No, I'm not in a relationship. And Lin Chen, you're already a sophomore this year, you should focus on your studies and don't think about these messed up things."

What kind of love is this? She just reached an agreement with Su Mubai, which has nothing to do with love.

"No?" Lin Chen looked at Lin Ai suspiciously. He felt that the more she talked, the more guilty she felt and the more in love she was.

"No." Lin Ai looked into his eyes and answered seriously.

She was sure of this, that she and Su Mubai were not in love.

Lin Ai was determined. Lin Chen said "Oh" and then persuaded her, "Sister, our family affairs have been resolved. You can also consider your personal affairs. You have to get married anyway. It's better to get married early than late."

“…”Lin Ai.

After being speechless for a while, she looked at Lin Chen and said, "Hurry up and study. You have classes tomorrow morning."

Although tomorrow is Sunday, Lin Chen still has half a day of classes tomorrow morning, and he can only rest for half a day in the afternoon every week.

"I understand. Sister, you should also go to bed early."

While talking to Lin Ai, when Lin Chen turned to leave, his eyes accidentally fell on Lin Ai's wrist. He found that there was suddenly a watch on his sister's wrist.

If she remembered correctly, she hadn't worn a watch when she went out just now.

Strictly speaking, she hasn't worn a watch for a long time.

You still say you are not in a relationship, but the hard evidence is out. If they are not in a relationship, who would give a watch to someone else?

Despite this, after staring at Lin Ai's wrist for a long while, Lin Chen finally did not expose Lin Ai and confront her about not taking the watch.

I guess it's just the beginning stage now. Maybe both of them have feelings for each other, but they haven't confirmed the relationship yet.

Forget it, don't cause trouble for her at this time, otherwise, with his sister's temper, she might reject that man.

Things at home had depressed her for two years and made her feel burdened for two years. Now that she was willing to meet people and fall in love, Lin Chen felt that this was a good start and that everyone's life was finally getting on track.

It’s time for his sister to find a relationship to change her mood.

So when he saw the watch on Lin Ai's wrist, Lin Chen pretended not to see it and turned back to his room.

Seeing that Lin Chen finally returned to his room and did not ask her about her relationship anymore, Lin Ai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With her right hand on her chest, Lin Ai watched Lin Chen enter the house. Then she suddenly realized that she was still wearing the watch that Su Mubai had just given her on her left hand.

She suddenly raised her left hand, looked at the new watch, and then looked at Lin Chen's room.

Lin Chen probably didn't notice it. If he had, he would have asked her what happened.

Well, he certainly didn't notice.

Comforting herself, Lin Ai turned around and went back to her room.

But when she was lying on the bed, her mind was full of her interactions with Su Mubai. She felt that Su Mubai was a good person. She raised her hand to look at the watch on her wrist, and Lin Ai couldn't help but smile again.

I haven't done anything yet, and there's no sign of having a child, but Su Mubai actually gave me a gift first.

After looking at the watch for a while and hiding his hands under the quilt, Lin Ai lay on his side on the bed, hugged the pillow and fell asleep.

Although she was relatively open-minded and didn't take things to heart, the only time she could sleep without any pressure and with nothing on her mind was after Su Mubai settled her family's debt.

On this side, Lin Ai fell asleep hugging her pillow, and Su Mubai also returned to International City.

That’s right, we are back to International City.

Lin Ai said she would come over tomorrow, so he had to go back to International City today no matter what.

After returning home, Su Mubai did not go back to his usual bedroom, but came to the bedroom where Lin Ai had slept last time, the pink bedroom.

Thinking that Lin Ai came downstairs to see him in her pajamas tonight, Su Mubai couldn't help but smile.

She shouldn't feel that distant from him and should be quite familiar with him, so she came down to see him in her pajamas.

I don’t know what Lin Ai is thinking, but at least this is what Su Mubai is thinking now.

After wandering around Lin Ai's room for a while, Su Mubai was suddenly looking forward to tomorrow, especially when he thought about how Lin Ai had coaxed him tonight, he was even more looking forward to seeing her.

He felt that Lin Ai should be good at acting coquettishly, and even looked forward to Lin Ai acting coquettishly towards him.

After walking around Lin Ai's room inside and out, Su Mubai turned off the lights and went back to his room to rest.

After being on a business trip for a week, Su Mubai was indeed a little tired, so he fell asleep not long after lying down on the bed.

Perhaps, because he met Lin Ai tonight, he was in a good mood and fell asleep faster.

Otherwise, he would have to continue working in the living room, which was his normal life before.

The next morning, Lin Ai got up very early, got herself ready, had breakfast at home, said hello to her parents, and left home for the supermarket.

At the same time, Su Mubai was still sleeping in bed. It was a rare opportunity for him to get a late night's sleep.

Even if he has nothing to do on weekdays, even if he can sleep, he can't sleep. He always gets up early and always finds something to do.

Maybe it’s because I was in a good mood last night, so I felt a little sleepy today.

It was almost ten o'clock in the morning, when Su Mubai was still lying on the bed and hadn't woken up yet, Lin Ai had already come over with big and small bags.

When she arrived at the door, Lin Ai knocked on it: "Boss Su."

"Mr. Su."

After calling Su Mubai several times and seeing that there was no movement inside, Lin Ai scanned her fingerprint and went in.

She was still a bit polite because she didn't scan her fingerprint to go in just now, thinking that this was not her home after all.

Even though Su Mubai took her fingerprints.

After entering the house and seeing that there was no movement in the house, Lin Ai cautiously called out twice: "Boss Su."

"Mr. Su."

In the end, there was still no response from Su Mubai.

Could it be that Su Mubai is not here?

After placing the fruit milk and kitchen ingredients bought from the supermarket on the dining table, Lin Ai tiptoed towards the bedroom.

She first gently pushed open the door of the bedroom where she had lived last week and looked in. Seeing that there was no one inside and no movement, Lin Ai pushed open the door of the bedroom opposite.

This time, she saw Su Mubai sleeping motionlessly on the bed.

The moment she saw Su Mubai, Lin Ai couldn't help but smile. It turned out that he hadn't woken up yet.

After being on a business trip for a week, you must be exhausted.

Thinking of this, Lin Ai gently closed the bedroom door and went back to the living room.

Lin Ai bought the ingredients for cooking and planned to cook today. After all, Su Mubai had helped her so much and gave her a watch yesterday, so she had to at least give him a gift in return.

Besides, the two of them were free here anyway, so Lin Ai thought of cooking a meal for Su Mubai as a token of her appreciation.

Even if she doesn't know how to cook yet, she can learn by following tutorials online.

So, after packing up the things she bought, Lin Ai tied on the maid's apron and went to the kitchen to get busy.

In the bedroom, Su Mubai was still sleeping. It was a rare occasion that he slept for more than eight hours.

It was almost eleven o'clock when Su Mubai opened his eyes and woke up, and suddenly he heard some noise outside the bedroom.

He didn't ask anyone to come and clean the house or cook today, because Lin Ai said she would come, and he was afraid that Lin Ai would not be used to having a third person present.

Lying motionless on the bed, he listened carefully outside. There was indeed some noise outside. Su Mubai lifted the quilt, put on his slippers and went out.

I thought it was his mom coming over, but when I walked into the living room, I saw the dining table was full of things and there was a slender, soft figure in the kitchen.

Even though the figure was facing away from the living room, Su Mubai still recognized it at a glance. It was Lin Ai's back.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Su Mubai's mood was severely shocked for a moment.

At this moment, he could never have imagined that it was Lin Ai who came over, and Lin Ai was still cooking in the kitchen.

The sun is particularly bright today, and it's very warm as it shines through the window.

It shines on Lin Ai's body, sparkling.
