Nan Sheng watched Yin Han's receding figure with a face full of reluctance.
She had just told him that she was going back to Nancheng for the Chinese New Year the day after tomorrow. This time, she didn't ask him to come with her; she just asked him to wait for her.
Because she is currently in her final year of high school and school starts on the eighth day of the first lunar month, she plans to come over in the second year of junior high school, as she doesn't want to be away from him for so long.
Nan Sheng watched the figure downstairs and hurriedly took out her phone to make a call.
As soon as Yin Han got downstairs, he saw that it was Nan Sheng calling. He subconsciously looked up at the window and answered the call.
“Sheng Sheng”.
"Han Baobao, wait for me! I'm coming down right away!" Nan Sheng said hurriedly as she went to change her clothes. She didn't want to stay here alone, especially since it was their first day together. She could wait for him to finish his work and then they could go on a date together!
"Okay, don't rush, take your time, I'll wait for you."
Although Yin Han didn't know what she wanted to do, he obediently waited, walked back to the wall next to the elevator and leaned against it, so that she could see him as soon as she got off.
He knew the girl had only gone back home on New Year's Eve because of him. The day after tomorrow was her birthday, and he wanted to secretly prepare a gift for her. He had also decided that he would formally confess his feelings to her on the night of her birthday, which was why he hadn't brought her out with him just now.
"Han Baobao! Take me with you! I'll go wherever you go, I want to stay with you! I can wait until you're done with your work, and then we'll go on a date, okay?"
As soon as Nan Sheng stepped out of the elevator, she saw Yin Han and grabbed his arm.
"good."
Yin Han never refused her requests, especially since he wanted to be with her forever. As for other things, he would take care of them when he had time.
"Hehe, then give me a kiss before we go." Nan Sheng said, already pouting and closing her eyes.
"Sheng Sheng..." She's really going too far.
"What's wrong with kissing? We're boyfriend and girlfriend now. Don't you want to kiss me?"
As soon as Nan Sheng finished speaking, Yin Han kissed her, but they separated immediately. He then grabbed her hand and put it in his pocket, pulling her away.
Nan Sheng was overjoyed to receive a kiss, and she skipped and hopped as she walked.
Half an hour later, Yin Han took Nan Sheng home in a taxi.
Looking at the girl walking up the stairs ahead, Yin Han felt a pang of pain in her heart. She shouldn't have come to a place like this.
Upon reaching the fifth floor, before Yin Han could speak, Nan Sheng said, "Han Baobao, you go ahead and do your work. I'm going to Grandma's room to keep her company. I'll come find you when you're done, okay?"
Yin Han originally wanted her to sit next to him, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
"Okay, call me if you need anything." Yin Han rubbed her head.
*****
After returning to his room, Yin Han turned on his computer and kept browsing. When he saw that there were no vacancies in Yinian Apartment, he frowned.
He paused for a moment, seemingly lost in thought, then typed on the computer keyboard and a phone number popped up instantly. He took out his phone and dialed it, and the other party answered several tens of seconds later.
"Hello, who is this?" a deep male voice called out.
"Are you the owner of apartment 406 in Yinian Apartment?" Yin Han confirmed.
"What's the matter?" the other party asked, clearly puzzled.
...
Five minutes later, the call ended. Yin Han looked at the new message on his phone and smiled. He had bought the room opposite the girl's for three times the price. He and his grandmother were going to move there before the New Year so that the girl wouldn't need to come to this place anymore.
After resolving this matter, Yin Han checked the balance of his newly opened bank card. This was the money he had earned during his time in the hospital and after his discharge from the hospital from several software programs he designed, but it was far from enough.
In the late afternoon or early evening.
Nan Sheng and Li Xiaomei chatted and picked vegetables in the kitchen, laughing and talking.
After everything was ready, Li Xiaomei started cooking while Nan Sheng learned cooking skills from her. Li Xiaomei was very patient and would remind Nan Sheng every time she added an ingredient.
When Yin Han came in after finishing his work, this was the scene he saw: an old man and a young man, inexplicably harmonious. This was the person he wanted to protect for the rest of his life.
Nan Sheng was the first to notice Yin Han walking in. The moment she saw him, her eyes lit up, and she skipped over to him, took his hand, and told him what she and her grandmother had done that afternoon.
"Hanbao, are you done with your work?"
"Hanbao, have you missed me? Even though you're right next door, I've been thinking about you all afternoon!"
"Hanbao, I just went to the market with Grandma! It was my first time at the market, and it was pretty good!"
"Hanbao, I even picked out the tomatoes myself; they're all big and red."
"Hanbao, after I came back, I learned a lot of cooking methods from Grandma. I'll cook for you next time, okay?"
"Cold baby..."
As Yin Han listened to the girl chattering away beside him, sharing what had happened over the past few hours, he wasn't impatient at all. On the contrary, he was very happy. He listened attentively to every word the girl said and responded to it.
Hearing her call him "Han Baobao" again and again, even though his face flushed slightly, he still hoped she would continue calling him that.
Hearing her say she'd been thinking about him all afternoon, he couldn't wait to pull her into his arms and kiss her all he wanted.
Listening to her recount her amusing experience of her first trip to the farmers' market, he suddenly regretted not going with her.
When she said she would cook for him in the future, even though he really liked it, he couldn't bear to let her do it...
Nan Sheng speaks softly, but her personality is the opposite. She is only obedient and gentle in front of people she is close to or relies on, and her beautiful eyes will sparkle. To others, she is aloof and cold. She may seem to be smiling and polite, but anyone who knows her knows that this is just a normal etiquette for a prestigious family.
