Chapter 89: Where the Heart Desires



Chen Nian'an finally opened his mouth slowly under his scorching gaze and uttered two crisp words: "Sure!"

After saying that, he nodded vigorously as if he was afraid that Gu Boyan would go back on his word.

Are you kidding? How can we miss such a good thing?

Gu Boyan, just act out whatever you want to see!

Isn’t that exciting enough?

"Okay" After a long pause, Gu Boyan heard his own voice coming out of his mouth, but his soul had already dissipated.

Chen Nian'an looked at his stunned expression, raised the corner of his mouth, stood up, hugged his arm and said with a chuckle: "Are you hungry? I'll make you something to eat."

She is well versed in the art of taming beasts, and she needs to give a sweet reward after a slap.

As expected, the topic changed too quickly, but it particularly attracted Gu Boyan.

He immediately threw all thoughts of acting out of his mind, his eyes widening slightly, "You cook?"

Just as Chen Nian'an discovered Gu Boyan cooking in the kitchen, he was also filled with astonishment.

"Yeah," Chen Nian'an nodded, scratched his forehead, and said embarrassedly: "It's just that it may not be as delicious as yours. After all, I..."

"It's okay," Gu Boyan interrupted her unexpectedly, his chest heaving under his bathrobe, his eyes gleaming, "Let's go."

After saying that, Gu Boyan took the first step and turned to leave the bedroom. Chen Nian'an was stunned for a second and followed him closely.

Can't wait.

He had never dared to think about this before.

"Yeah," Chen Nian'an responded softly and followed him out into the kitchen.

He swallowed the unfinished words.

——After all, I made it. When I was at the Zhong family, I couldn’t even appreciate steamed buns.

Mantou was the puppy she raised when she was a child.

The kitchen of this duplex villa is quite large. When Chen Nian'an followed in, her eyes narrowed slightly.

Her eyes fell on the pink apron hanging on the vintage wall nail at the door.

——The one that Gu Boyan tied at noon.

It was obviously a women's apron. When he wore it, the small piece of fabric on the waist looked like one used by children. When Chen Nian'an tied it on, he found that it was just right.

Gu Boyan was already standing by the refrigerator, opening it and searching for food inside. The fresh-keeping light reflected the corners of his smiling mouth, and the anticipation in his bright eyes seemed a bit childish.

It was completely different from his usual calm temperament.

Fortunately, he asked the housekeeper to deliver a lot of food this morning, including the lobster he had prepared at noon, which was also frozen in it.

【Hmm...what should I eat?】

Gu Boyan held the refrigerator door open, staring at the row of fresh ingredients in confusion.

Ribs, tuna, lobster, steak, shark fin...

What to choose?

The opportunity was hard to come by. He was like a street homeless man who suddenly fell into a feast with a wide variety of food. He was dazzled for a moment and didn't know what to eat first.

Chen Nian'an, wearing an apron, walked up silently.

My heart goes: It’s not about what you want to eat, but what I can cook.

After all, ever since people at home started to dislike the food she cooked and shook their heads, Chen Nian'an never went into the kitchen again.

Although Chen Nian'an always felt that her cooking was just not very delicious, it was definitely not bad.

Yes, she is that confident.

But now... count how many years it has been, Chen Nian'an counted on his fingers in his mind.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Just enough fingers!

It has been ten years since I last cooked.

Thinking of this, she turned her head and said to Gu Boyan solemnly: "Do you believe me?"

Gu Boyan, whose eyes were wandering between several dishes in the refrigerator, raised his head when he heard the sound, not noticing anything unusual.

He didn't seem to want to appear too impatient, so he nodded proudly and said, "Believe it."

But there was a hint of excitement in his tone.

"So, what are you going to do?"

He slightly moved aside, raised his arms and supported the top of the refrigerator, making room for Chen Nian so that she could see the ingredients inside clearly.

Chen Nian'an snuggled into his arms, and the ends of her hair brushed across Gu Boyan's neck.

Chen Nian'an raised her slender willow-shaped eyebrows slightly, and looked around the refrigerator. The transparent freezer layer allowed her to directly see the fresh meat area.

She glanced down from the corner of her eye, without even stopping for half a second, and then moved her eyes to search the fresh-keeping layer above.

【Don’t eat lobster? 】

Gu Boyan watched her every move closely, and when he saw her look away, he muttered in disappointment in his heart.

After all, in order to keep them fresh, he handled the lobsters himself after they were delivered.

If Nian An chooses it, then wouldn't it be considered that we both did it together?

Among all the awkward and difficult foods, Chen Nian'an just accurately caught a handful of inconspicuous noodles in the corner of the top floor.

Before I could feel happy, I heard Gu Boyan's thoughts.

His gaze paused slightly, and Chen Nian suddenly looked down again. Gu Boyan's eyes suddenly lit up and his heart suddenly tightened.

The next second, Chen Nian'an opened the transparent cold box and, as if sensing something, took out the lobster he had been longing for.

【Depend on】

The matchstick man in Gu Boyan's heart was flying around with hearts on his head, dancing.

[Sure enough, this is what my wife and I want. Is this telepathy?]

Even without saying anything, she knows I want to eat lobster. If this understanding isn't true love, what is?

This was the first time that Gu Boyan, a person with firm materialistic values, believed in idealism.

It turns out that true love really does have a sense of connection in the dark.

Even if they don't speak, you can tell what the other person is thinking just from a look or a breath.

[It seems Chen Nian'an really has fallen in love with me and didn't lie to me! ]

Just as Chen Nian'an picked up the small box of lobsters from the frozen section and was about to close the lid, his hand suddenly stopped.

The cold air from the ice-making machine rushed out from the inner vent, and Chen Nian'an shivered with the cold. He then withdrew his hand stiffly and closed the freezing area.

He turned his head slowly and quite complicatedly, staring at Gu Boyan.

"Hmm?" Gu Boyan remained calm, touched his nose with his index finger, and uttered a questioning syllable.

The cold light from the refrigerator shone on the two people's overly perfect profiles. One of them didn't understand why, and the other was speechless.

For a moment, the only sound in the air was the faint running sound of the refrigerator.

After a long while, the doubts on Gu Boyan's face became more and more obvious, and Chen Nian'an finally moved his lips.

Thousands of words were condensed into three words, and she murmured: "Very good"

"ah?"

Gu Boyan asked a question.

Chen Nian'an closed his eyes and ignored him. Instead, he opened his eyes and asked, "Is lobster noodles okay?"

Although he was still a little confused and wanted to ask further questions, when he heard these words, Gu Boyan's attention was obviously diverted again.

Trying his best to tighten the corners of his mouth, Gu Boyan nodded reservedly, his voice calm and natural, "Okay"

【I’m about to eat noodles made by my wife! 】

[I can't let her find out how naive I am. I can't be so silly and laugh. I have to hold on.]

"Okay." Chen Nian'an didn't bother to care about him pretending and pushed him out, saying calmly, "Wait for me outside."
