"Luo Luo, did you sleep well last night? Was Fei Fei a good sleeper?"

Zhang Yiting couldn't help but ask, after all... she knew all too well what her daughter's sleeping posture was like.

Yan Xiluo recalled last night... Li Mufei had one leg draped over her, one arm around her, pulling at the blanket, kicking her every now and then, sleeping sideways, and finally sleeping with her arm around Yan Xiluo's leg...

Yan Xiluo smiled awkwardly.

"Auntie, she's sleeping quite well. Feifei is sleeping very peacefully!"

After saying that, he even glanced at Li Mufei.

Li Mufei smiled sweetly, "Luo Luo is so much better; she knows how to help me maintain my image."

Yan Xiluo accompanied Li Yaosen and Si Yaqin for a walk by the sea, enjoying the unique atmosphere brought by the sea breeze.

afternoon

"Ayan, I'm free now. Grandpa and Grandma just went for their afternoon nap."

Yan Xiluo was about to change into some lighter clothes before going out, since it was summer now.

Knowing that Yan Xiluo had a date with Lan Jingyan today, Li Mufei didn't bother her and went to have afternoon tea with the other elders instead.

Hotel Presidential Suite

Lan Jingyan, who had finally received a message from Yan Xiluo, excitedly changed into the casual clothes that Xie Xun had prepared for him. He looked himself over in the mirror, tidied his hair, and sprayed on the perfume that Yan Xiluo had given him.

"Are you still at the Li family's seaside villa? I'll come pick you up now."

"Yes, that's right. I'll wander around the area around the villa. Just call me when you get there."

"good."

Lan Jingyan took the car keys and took the elevator downstairs.

Yan Xiluo was holding an umbrella, wearing a white organza dress and flat sandals.

Of course, the Li family's seaside villa is also surrounded by the sea and beaches. Yan Xiluo came to the nearby beach, put her umbrella on the sand, and squatted down to draw in the sand.

Lan Jingyan parked his car and walked towards the beach. Just as he was about to call Yan Xiluo, he saw a girl squatting on the sand drawing with her fingers. The sea breeze gently ruffled her hair, giving her a somewhat messy yet beautiful look. Her outstanding features made it clear at a glance that she was the person he wanted to see...

"Luo Luo".

Lan Jingyan called out to Yan Xiluo with ease.

"Hey, how did you find me?"

Yan Xiluo looked up at him in surprise. So this is what Lan Jingyan looks like in casual clothes. He looks much softer than when he wears a suit.

"Look. The car was parked right there. I just happened to see you and came over."

Lan Jingyan looked at the car and gestured for Yan Xi to park there.

"Shall we take a walk? It's quite nice to feel the sea breeze. The sun isn't too strong today."

Yan Xiluo got up and picked up her umbrella.

"Okay, I'll take care of it."

Lan Jingyan took the umbrella from Yan Xiluo's hand.

"Finished with work?"

Yan Xiluo didn't know what to talk to Lan Jingyan about, so she asked about work.

"Hmm... Xie Xun is involved; he's following up on it."

Lan Jingyan sounded a little guilty, using a business trip as an excuse to ask her out.

"Oh~"

The two continued walking forward, but they had nothing to talk about; neither of them knew what to say to the other.

"Hehe, brother, come and catch me! Come and catch me!"

A little girl in a pink dress was running barefoot on the beach. A boy, slightly older than her, was chasing after her; he was her brother.

"Don't be too happy yet, your brother will definitely catch you!"

The boy continued chasing after the little girl.

"Brother, it's a promise! If you catch me, I'll treat you to candy; if you don't catch me, you'll treat me to candy!"

The little girl called out in her childish voice, occasionally letting out bursts of laughter.

"Okay, brother's here!"

The boy could have easily grabbed her, but he stayed with her and played around with her to make her happy.

Seeing this scene, Yan Xiluo felt particularly warm, thinking of how she and Lin Ziye used to play like this when they were little.

Lost in thought, the little girl ran while glancing back at the boy, not paying attention to what was ahead, and accidentally bumped into Yan Xiluo. Yan Xiluo tried to dodge, but stumbled and almost fell...

Lan Jingyan swiftly tossed aside the umbrella in his hand, and with one hand firmly supported Yan Xiluo's waist. At this moment, Yan Xiluo lay in Lan Jingyan's arms, the posture and atmosphere quite ambiguous, their eyes locked... It was impossible to know what the other was thinking, impossible to read their minds...

"Sister, I'm sorry, I bumped into you."

The little girl saw that Yan Xiluo had been bumped into and quickly stopped, walking up to Yan Xiluo and Lan Jingyan to apologize.

Upon hearing the sound, Yan Xiluo quickly broke free from Lan Jingyan's embrace, and Lan Jingyan awkwardly withdrew his hand.

"It's okay, little sister. Remember to look ahead when you run in the future. Today's situation was a bit dangerous."

Yan Xiluo squatted down and talked to the little girl.

At this moment, the little girl's brother also quickly ran over to apologize.

"I'm sorry, sister. I wasn't watching my sister properly and I accidentally bumped into you."

"It's okay, I'm fine. Just be careful in the future, and go have fun."

Yan Xiluo deliberately softened her voice to ease their guilt and to avoid frightening them.

Seeing Yan Xiluo's gentle demeanor, Lan Jingyan felt as if she were educating her own child. At that moment, Lan Jingyan even thought of a name for their child.

After thanking Yan Xi, the boy took the little girl's hand and left.

"Luo Luo, this is the gift I want to give you."

Before anyone knew it, a diamond necklace appeared in Lan Jingyan's hand, hanging in the air. It was set with a heart shape made of two diamonds, one blue and one pink. These two colors of diamonds are not only expensive but also very rare.

Wow, so beautiful!

A necklace? It's certainly exquisite, but isn't it a bit too expensive...? What if I lose it while on a mission?!

"Luo Luo, this is a necklace I specially commissioned as a token of our love. It has our names engraved on it."

Yan Love Fall

Yan Xiluo was touched by Lan Jingyan's thoughtfulness and attentiveness.

"Shall I put it on for you?"

"good."

After obtaining Yan Xiluo's permission, Lan Jingyan carefully parted Yan Xiluo's hair and put the hairpin on her head, being careful not to touch her hair.

"Luo Luo, do you like it?"

Lan Jingyan wanted to hear her say she liked it.

Yan Xiluo happily touched the necklace, smiling beautifully, "Mmm."

Lan Jingyan unconsciously moved closer to Yan Xiluo. He wanted to kiss her, but he was afraid that if things progressed too quickly, he would scare her away and she might ignore him afterward.

Although that's what he thought, at this moment Lan Jingyan's brain was not under his body's control. He couldn't help but lean down slightly and gently kiss her lips.

It was so soft, so gentle, so warm, and it made my heart feel so sweet… Lan Jingyan didn’t dare linger and quickly pulled away from her lips.

Yan Xiluo was stunned by Lan Jingyan's action and remained in a daze for a long time. Those cold, thin lips and the electric-like feeling made her not reject him.
