I guess Lu Sinian drank so much that Xiao Zifeng almost collapsed! Zhang Yaoyao's tone softened as she tried to persuade him.
"Lu Sinian, it's getting late, and you've had quite a bit to drink. You should go back and get some rest!"
What's more, this man is still injured and has just been discharged from the hospital. She doesn't want anything to happen because of drinking.
Lu Sinian looked at Zhang Yaoyao with deep eyes, then glanced at the mess of cups and plates in the yard, and said softly.
"Everyone's gone, and there's so much mess here. Let me help you clean it up before you leave."
This is the downside of cooking at home. It's lively and noisy when people are eating, but the floor is a mess after they leave. It's enough to give people a headache. He doesn't want Zhang Yaoyao to be responsible for all these housework alone. If possible, he hopes to share all the chores with Zhang Yaoyao, including the housework.
Zhang Yaoyao didn't expect that Lu Sinian was still thinking about cleaning up the mess for her. She glanced at the messy cups and plates in the yard, and thought of the man who had been drinking before, and finally sighed.
"No need, I can clean it up by myself, you should go back and rest first."
She can do this housework by herself without any problem, there is really no need for Lu Sinian to intervene.
As expected, he was rejected, but Lu Sinian sighed helplessly, stood up and started to clean up the leftovers on the floor.
"How long will it take you to finish this alone? Stop being stubborn, let me help you!"
Looking at the tall back of the man busying around in the small yard, Zhang Yaoyao's heart suddenly softened for some reason. This man looked like a tough guy, but he was actually full of tenderness.
At least, after everyone left, they would stay and help her with the housework, which made Zhang Yaoyao feel an unprecedented warmth.
Perhaps, what Lu Sinian said before was right. It is actually quite good to have a man at home.
The two of them divided the work and cooperated with each other. Lu Sinian started collecting the leftover food, cleaning the place, and throwing the unwanted things into the trash can; Zhang Yaoyao was responsible for washing the dishes. In just a short while, the small yard that was originally a mess was cleaned up neatly.
Zhang Yaoyao wiped the sweat from her forehead and glanced at Lu Sinian who was helping to carry the dishes to the kitchen. After half a day of worrying, she was left alone standing in the empty yard. She felt a sense of loneliness after the prosperity, and said to Lu Sinian's back.
"Lu Sinian, if you're not in a hurry to go back to your room and sleep, let's have a cup of tea!"
Under the starry sky and the quietness of the yard, the two of them sat in the small courtyard drinking tea, feeling this rare atmosphere and emptying all their thoughts, which was also a kind of enjoyment.
Lu Sinian had just put the dishes washed by Zhang Yaoyao into the kitchen cupboard when he suddenly heard Zhang Yaoyao's words. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he said without hesitation.
"Okay, come make tea!"
"Um!"
Zhang Yaoyao nodded, got up and made two cups of scented tea. Thinking of how much liquor Lu Sinian had drunk before, she specially added honey water to Lu Sinian's scented tea.
When the two of them sat on the small stool in the yard, Lu Sinian took the flower tea that Zhang Yaoyao had brewed for him, took a sip, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Zhang Yaoyao with a pair of puzzled eyes.
"You put honey in my tea?"
In fact, he doesn't like sweets very much, and he doesn't like drinking sugar water even more. If Zhang Yaoyao gives it to him, he will drink it even if it is arsenic.
"Um!"
Zhang Yaoyao nodded and explained.
"You drank so much liquor. Honey can help with hangovers. Drinking a little will be good for your health!"
Lu Sinian raised his eyebrows and subconsciously curled the corners of his mouth.
"Really? Thank you so much!"
This was the first time Zhang Yaoyao cared about his health since she started working hard. Even if it was just a small matter like adding honey to the tea he drank because he drank strong liquor, Lu Sinian still didn't feel happy in his heart. Zhang Yaoyao... was finally no longer indifferent to him.
After that, the two of them didn't say anything, but just sat quietly in the yard, feeling the coolness brought by the night breeze, as if they were originally an old couple, who had the tacit understanding of cooling off in the yard on a summer night.
At this moment, silence is better than words. A man and a woman just sit together. The night wind lifts Zhang Yaoyao's soft hair and floats between Lu Sinian's eyebrows, emitting a faint orchid fragrance, silently hooking out a hint of ambiguity.
Lu Sinian sat motionless beside the woman, feeling the tenderness of her hair entwining and dancing between his brows, but his heart was extremely surging, as if he could feel that indescribable feeling of dependence and intimacy. If he could have a long hug and kiss at this moment, then the years would be even more peaceful.
Unfortunately, Zhang Yaoyao was enjoying the quiet and peaceful time at the moment and did not notice the fervent desire in the man's eyes. At this moment, Zhang Yaoyao felt extremely calm and enjoyed this rare peace.
As the night deepened, their eyelids grew heavy and sleepiness set in. When Lu Sinian got up and prepared to go back to rest, Zhang Yaoyao looked at the man's broad and tall back and subconsciously called out.
"Lu Sinian!"
Lu Sinian turned around and looked at the charming figure in the moonlight. The depth in his eyes gradually darkened. He didn't know what he was thinking, and he said something without thinking.
"Zhang Yaoyao, you want to give me a goodnight kiss!"
Just now, the two of them sat in silence in the yard, quietly accompanying each other. No one spoke, but Lu Sinian inexplicably felt a sense of peace and tranquility. At that moment, he inexplicably felt an urge to kiss Zhang Yaoyao from the bottom of his heart. Unfortunately, the woman's eyes had never been entangled with him, and his idea had never been fulfilled.
Now that he was going to rest, he just wanted a goodnight kiss.
Zhang Yaoyao's expression was obviously stunned, and then two red clouds flashed across her face, and she mumbled.
"What are you thinking about? I just want to talk to you. Tomorrow morning, I'll go to your cafe to take measurements for all the employees. The next batch of group-purchased clothes will be made for your cafe's employees first."
As for the goodnight kiss, she was indeed a little moved the moment Lu Sinian asked.
The moonlight, the breeze, and the handsome guy were all right in front of her, but unfortunately, she still couldn't take that step.
Although he knew that it was a luxury to get a goodnight kiss from Zhang Yaoyao, a hurt expression still appeared in Lu Sinian's eyes when she rejected him in person. He turned his head and waved to the pretty figure behind him.
"Okay, I know, goodnight!"
As he spoke, the tall figure of the man disappeared at the door and walked up the stairs.
Zhang Yaoyao stood there, watching Lu Sinian's tall and straight figure disappear around the corner of the stairs. Somehow, an irrepressible tenderness rose in her heart.
