"Um... there's not much people in the manor, and I'm all alone... I'm scared."
He wasn't exactly lying; Xiao Wujie and the others had been gone for two days.
Niu Ma Ai Ruoman was busy cleaning up the mess left by Chu Liyue, while Ye Jinyu and Lin Qingyi spent all their time in the laboratory, and could not be found except during mealtimes.
In the vast manor, apart from a few servants, the only people who could be found were him and Chu Wan.
Thinking this, he couldn't help but cheer himself up, suppressing his panic, and raised his head to meet Chu Wan's gaze.
At the same time, she tried to make her eyes look a little misty, as close as possible to the way Xiao Wujie was being comforted in Chu Liyue's arms.
After staring at him for a moment, Chu Wan suddenly looked away, letting out a soft "Oh".
Yunmo: ...
Why is it not quite the same as the script I expected?
In his memory, his teacher used this trick in front of his wife, and it always worked.
Is it because his skills are not as profound as his teacher's?
Seeing that Chu Wan was about to look down at her book again, he impulsively pulled out a can of milk that he had been hiding in his pocket for a long time but hadn't had the courage to hand to her.
"Um... Sister Wan, I noticed you haven't had any water..."
"Would you like to try it...it's really delicious..."

"If you don't want it... that's... okay."
As he spoke, he reached out his hand to pull it back.
A strange feeling welled up inside her, and Chu Wan subconsciously took the milk jug from his hand.
He opened it in front of him, tilted his head back somewhat unceremoniously, and drank it all in one gulp.
The empty milk can clattered onto the table. Chu Wan silently licked the milk stain from the corner of her mouth and uttered two words expressionlessly:
"Thanks!"
Seeing Yunmo's momentarily stunned gaze, her eyes flickered slightly, and she reached out as if possessed, awkwardly ruffling his hair.
After she finished massaging, she seemed somewhat taken aback, a rare look of helplessness appearing on her face. She then picked up the books on the table and walked out.
By the time Yunmo realized what was happening, she had already walked out the door, and his face was so red that not a trace of normal skin color could be found.

I like it so much...
