The man was tall and upright, with a slender figure. At this moment, he was only wearing a white bath towel around his waist.
His hair was wet, with a few drops of water constantly sliding down the ends, dripping onto his strong collarbone, and then slowly flowing down along the slightly undulating muscle lines, eventually disappearing into the bath towel, leaving a small water stain.
"What are you doing here?" Qiu Mang's eyes widened in astonishment and surprise.
The dappled sunlight filtered through the glass, cascading onto the man's body and softening his otherwise sculpted features.
The man walked slowly over, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed as he glanced at her. He casually raised his well-defined hand to wipe his still-dripping hair, and his thin lips parted slightly, "Do you usually just barge into single men's homes like this?"
Qiu Mang quickly averted her gaze from the man, a faint blush creeping onto her cheeks. She stammered, "I...I didn't mean to..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly came to her senses, her beautiful eyes widening as she stared at Lu Yanting in astonishment. "You mean, this house is yours? You're the owner of this place?"
Lu Yanting nodded slightly, his expression calm: "That's right."
Qiu Mang's eyes darted around, as if she had remembered something, and she asked eagerly, "So, the low-priced house that the previous owner bought was also yours?"
"Yes," the man answered crisply and without any pretense.
Qiu Mang raised her hand to her forehead; she should have thought of this sooner.
"come over."
At this moment, the man, who was already sitting in the recliner, gently waved to her.
Qiu Mang, like a docile lamb, obediently walked over and stood quietly beside him.
"Sit!" the man uttered a single word.
Qiu Mang subconsciously looked around. In the entire spacious living room, there was only this one recliner. Where was she supposed to sit?
Lu Yanting stretched out his long arm and pulled her firmly into his arms with a little force. His deep voice carried a hint of apology: "We haven't had time to buy furniture yet, so you'll have to make do for now."
The sunlight was warm, and the man's handsome, almost perfect face was so close to hers. Qiu Mang looked up at him, her heart skipping a beat for no apparent reason...
The next second, a dark glint flashed in the man's deep eyes, and then without hesitation, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.
The girl instinctively closed her eyes tightly, her hands unconsciously curling up and gently pressing against his broad and firm chest.
After a long while, the man finally loosened his grip on her slightly, their warm breaths still lingering between them. He smiled slightly, a hint of wickedness in his eyes, his voice low and seductive: "Not bad, your kissing skills have become even better after I've trained them."
Qiu Mang's chest rose and fell slightly as she breathed softly, the blush on her cheeks still lingering. She bit her lower lip lightly, gazing at him with a leisurely look.
Lu Yanting could no longer suppress the fire in his heart. He stretched out his long arm, pressed a button on the remote control, and the curtains closed automatically.
The two of them finally had a leisurely morning and didn't get up until noon.
Qiu Mang told Lu Yanting that she had found a job. Lu Yanting didn't interfere much, but just asked about her work hours and location.
Qiu Mang seemed to suddenly remember something, her bright eyes darted around, and she cautiously opened her mouth again, "By the way, senior said he's coming over for dinner tonight, can I... say yes?"
Qiu Mang spoke with a hint of trepidation, secretly observing the man's expression.
Lu Yanting's expression remained cold and stern, and he simply uttered two words: "Whatever you say."
Seeing this, Qiu Mang's lips curled up, and then she asked, "He also asked me to ask you if there are any suitable clothing links to recommend to him recently?"
Lu Yanting sighed, raised his hand to rub his forehead, turned to look at her, and asked, "What do you think?"
Qiu Mang playfully stuck out her tongue and quickly replied, "Then I'll tell him that you're too busy and don't have time."
Lu Yanting remained silent for a moment, then finally waved his hand gently and sighed, "Never mind..."
In the evening, it was still a meal for four people.
Having gotten to know each other better last time, the atmosphere today was noticeably more lively than before.
As soon as Ji Lun saw Lu Yanting, he greeted him warmly, "Old Lu, we meet again! What would you like to eat today? I'll make it for you!"
Lu Yanting was speechless. If he didn't know that Ji Lun had a girl he liked, he would have to wonder if Ji Lun had feelings for him if things continued like this.
Ji Lun cooked again today, and Qiu Mang wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but Lu Yanting didn't stop her this time.
He sat with Qiu Li in the living room watching TV, and soon someone knocked on the door.
Lu Yanting went over and opened the door, and soon came in carrying a bag.
Ji Lun finished cooking and brought the dishes out. Seeing the bag Lu Yanting was carrying, he asked in surprise, "Old Lu, you bought something?"
Lu Yanting remained calm, casually tossing the bag onto the sofa and saying indifferently, "The watch, the brand you asked me about last time."
Upon hearing this, Ji Lun quickly put down the vegetables he was holding, strode over to Lu Yanting, his eyes shining, and said eagerly, "Old Lu, you have some in stock? Can you get me one too? Don't worry, I'll pay you the commission, okay?"
As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed Lu Yanting's arm.
Lu Yanting subtly withdrew his arm, his tone indifferent: "No need, it's yours."
Ji Lun was filled with excitement and couldn't wait to open the package. Inside an exquisite box lay a beautifully crafted Rolex watch of superior quality.
Ji Lun gently stroked the watch face with both hands, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and kept praising, "Old Lu, it has to be you! You managed to find such a good item, you're amazing!"
Lu Yanting walked into the kitchen without making a sound and helped Qiu Mang serve the dishes.
As Qiu Mang approached, Ji Lun hurriedly raised his watch and shook it vigorously at Qiu Mang, exclaiming excitedly, "Ah Mang, you don't know, Old Lu is a real expert at finding bargains! He can find such realistic items. This watch looks completely real at first glance. To say it's indistinguishable from the real thing would be an understatement!"
Qiu Mang frowned slightly, looking at Lu Yanting with a face full of doubt, silently asking with her eyes: What exactly is going on?
Lu Yanting leaned down slightly and whispered in Qiu Mang's ear: "Since he is your friend, consider this a gift from me to him."
Qiu Mang quickly grabbed Lu Yanting's arm and pulled him aside, her voice tinged with worry: "That's a real watch, such an expensive thing, are you really sure you want to give it to him?"
Lu Yanting remained calm and indifferent, casually saying, "He's a pretty good cook. If I give him this gift, I can have him cook for you without any problem when you're hungry."
