Chapter 84
When Bai Wu and Luo Heng came over for the first time, An Nuo's mind was full of thoughts on how to entertain them, so the fact that Lenny had discovered the truth was nothing.
It wasn't a good working day at all.
My mind is not on work at all.
He is busy with this and that, and nothing he does is related to work.
In the evening, Bai Wu arrived with Luo Heng.
Although the two were several years younger than Lu Yunyan, they had been accustomed to big scenes since childhood, and Lu Yunyan was no longer a mysterious legendary figure, so the occasion of their meeting seemed very ordinary.
What An Nuo was most worried about did not happen.
He was really afraid that Bai Wu would smile on the surface, but suddenly pull out a knife from behind and stab it into Lu Yunyan's chest, ending Lu Yunyan's life directly and cleanly.
This is probably the difference between online chat and real-life chat.
When we really met, Bai Wu looked like a gentle and harmless little sweet girl.
He shook hands and greeted Lu Yunyan calmly and politely, calling him "Brother Yunyan" in a friendly and polite manner, and said with a smile, "We chatted a little before, and we finally meet tonight."
An Nuo observed secretly, and luckily, there was no blade hidden in Bai Wu's sleeves.
Lu Yunyan also put on a proper professional smile: "Welcome, welcome. It's time for me to invite you to my home for dinner. Please come in."
Bai Wu and Luo Heng still brought gifts and handed them to An Nuo: "A gift for you."
An Nuo took it and said, "...Why did you bring a gift? That's too awkward."
Bai Wu said, "Just consider it as your wedding gift. I didn't give you anything back then."
An Nuo let his guard down and smiled, "...how long have we been married?"
The main thing is that they didn't have a wedding, the whole process was kept secret, and it was a marriage by agreement.
At that time, An Nuo himself did not have any hope for this marriage. Bai Wu and Luo Heng also knew that he would get divorced sooner or later, so of course they would not send him any special gifts.
Bai Wu smiled: "Yes, you have been married for a long time, and this is our first time here."
An Nuo: “…”
Lu Yunyan: “…”
The undercurrent began to surge subtly, and the white mist began to make moves - yes, I hadn't received any invitation before.
These words could not be directed at An Nuo. The only person present who would feel embarrassed was Lu Yunyan, because he had just finished saying some polite nonsense.
After being embarrassed for a second, Lu Yunyan found it quite interesting.
Bai Wu and An Nuo have completely different personalities, yet they can become such good friends. If he and An Nuo were in a normal relationship and got married, they would definitely have to go through this hurdle in the middle, right?
So what should we do in this situation?
Of course I just pretended to be stupid and didn't hear it.
Lu Yunyan's facial expression remained unchanged: "Please take a seat. Would you like something to drink?"
Luo Heng took Bai Wu's hand and sat down. This time, before Bai Wu could speak, he said, "All right. Sit down first. It's been a while since I last saw An Nuo."
Absolute awareness of being an alpha.
In front of the other person's husband, Luo Heng wisely changed her name and did not dare to call her "Nono" affectionately.
An Nuo opened the gift given by his good friend on the spot.
Luo Heng gave an eye-protection desk lamp, and Bai Wu gave a whole set of dinner plates.
They seemed very common and worthless, but both touched An Nuo's heart.
Anno was very surprised when he found the eye-protection desk lamp.
"This lamp!! How did you find it!! Hasn't it been discontinued?!"
This was Annuo's favorite eye protection lamp before, but because the planet where it was produced was plunged into war, it was discontinued several years ago. Since then, Annuo was forced to change several models, but except for Wushan Bu Shi Yun, there was no one that suited his taste better than this one.
Luo Heng smiled: "What a coincidence! I didn't look for it specifically, but I stumbled upon someone selling it. It was the last of its kind, so I bought it."
"Why did you hide it until now?"
"Because I originally wanted to give it to you as a birthday present, but now plans have changed, so I sent it out early."
Lu Yunyan raised his eyebrows. He seemed to have done something similar to An Nuo.
But when An Nuo opened Bai Wu's gift, he was even more surprised and almost jumped up: "Wow!! This set of plates!! You actually gave it to me!! Are you really giving it to me?!"
The fact that they can become good friends must mean that they share the same aesthetic tastes.
This set of plates was made by an artist they all like very much, and the shape and pattern of each plate are unique.
An Nuo lost because he had no money. He failed to snatch Bai Wu away that year, and later he tried to coax and persuade Bai Wu for a long time, but he still couldn't cheat a plate out of him.
Bai Wu also really likes it and has treated it as a collectible over the years and has never used it once.
"It's impossible for it to leave this door again today. I won't give it back to you even if you beg me! I really won't give it back to you!"
"I've given it to you, I've given it all to you. There's no reason to ask for it back."
Bai Wu looked at him and said, "Okay, just sit still and stop jumping around."
It made his heart hang in his throat.
Bai Wu almost stood up to help An Nuo, but there was someone more anxious than him - Lu Yunyan's eyes never left An Nuo. As soon as An Nuo got excited, Lu Yunyan immediately helped him calm down and pushed him back to his seat.
An Nuo smiled embarrassedly.
In my excitement, I forgot there was a baby in my belly.
After receiving the gifts, An Nuo took Bai Wu and Luo Heng on a casual tour, then played with a few small robots and teased the two cats before starting to have dinner.
Anno understands their tastes, so the food he prepares can't go wrong.
I really hope that they will be satisfied, and I also pray that Bai Wu will put away his smiling but sometimes ferocious look towards Lu Yunyan, and never say anything scary again.
Maybe it was because Annuo prepared the food correctly, or maybe it was because the devout prayers worked. The atmosphere was a little awkward at first, but it got better later.
Bai Wu didn't say anything more terrible, and the meal went on peacefully.
Lu Yunyan behaved as usual, and did not try to be attentive in front of An Nuo's friends. He did not say much throughout the whole process, and only spoke when it came to his questions.
I also took two work calls in the middle of the day, so I didn't neglect my own work.
After dinner, Bai Wu restrained his murderous aura and became very peaceful - although it was unclear why he changed his attitude, it was a good thing for An Nuo.
After playing with the cat for a while, Bai Wu and Luo Heng didn't stay any longer and decided to leave.
An Nuo was quite surprised: "...leaving so soon?"
I thought Bai Wu was going to give Lu Yunyan a hard time, but all he did was give him a threatening look and those sarcastic words when he first came in.
Bai Wu stretched lazily: "I still want to go for a drink. That newly opened pub has received good reviews. I thought about it and decided I must have a drink there tonight."
Originally, Bai Wu was really planning to give Lu Yunyan a hard time.
He often teased An Nuo and told all kinds of nonsense, such as fake becoming real, having two children in three years and so on.
But can joking be the same as actually making it happen?
Bai Wu is not unable to accept these settings. If An Nuo and Lu Yunyan really like each other, then turning the fake into reality can be a perfect ending.
But after just over half a year of a marriage that started as an agreement, Lu Yunyan actually made An Nuo pregnant?!
...How can this be a good alpha?!
Bai Wu felt that An Nuo must have been bewitched by Lu Yunyan, and had been completely fooled by his sweet words - otherwise how could he have a child with a man he had only known for half a year?!
Once the baby is born, it can’t be put back in!
This is something that will accompany you throughout your life!
Although he is not as rich as the Lu family, nor as powerful as Lu Yunyan, his family background is still strong. With Luo Heng, Lu Yunyan cannot do anything to them easily.
But when he saw An Nuo, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, this idea was naturally dispelled after a while.
Because he saw that An Nuo was very relaxed and happy.
He's really fat too.
Compared to the last time they met, there was obviously more flesh on Annuo's cheeks this time.
But after gaining some weight, An Nuo's facial features became fuller and his facial lines became softer. He was already cute and good-looking enough, and now he looks even softer and more likable.
This ease and happiness is most evident at the dinner table.
An Nuo was very natural and real in front of Lu Yunyan, exactly the same as she usually was in front of them. She didn't need to pretend to be restrained at all, and her whole body was relaxed.
Lu Yunyan doesn't have anything special to offer, but he is very attentive to every little detail.
Always pay attention to An Nuo's situation and stop all his dangerous behaviors in time.
She knows An Nuo's taste very well and even knows his eating habits and order.
He is calm and composed, and never speaks actively, but when An Nuo speaks, he listens, afraid that An Nuo will feel awkward, and he knows how to choose the right moment to support him.
The main thing was that Lu Yunyan did all these things very naturally, as they were completely habits and traces left over from his daily life - he even handled some work in the middle, which was what Bai Wu admired the most.
Of course, Lu Yunyan could show off his courtesy today and act as an example for them to see.
But Lu Yunyan didn't.
Because there is no need for that between them. As long as he shows his truest state, no matter who is watching, they will believe that he can take good care of An Nuo.
This kind of self-confidence is really arrogant and presumptuous and it's really annoying.
But after seeing it with his own eyes, Bai Wu felt relieved.
He reacted so strongly to the news simply because he was worried that An Nuo was being wronged and unhappy. He just wanted to see with his own eyes that An Nuo was happy and stable.
An Nuo wanted to see them off to the car, but Bai Wu was afraid that An Nuo would be tired, so he refused to let him.
"Okay, why bother sending us off for such a short distance? We know the way and won't get lost. You should just stay home."
Lu Yunyan added another polite remark: "You can come often when you are free. You are always welcome."
Bai Wu agreed with a smile: "Okay, since Brother Yunyan said so, then we will definitely not be polite. Come when you are free."
When Bai Wu smiled, An Nuo felt uneasy.
Luo Heng interrupted: "Well, we'll leave first, you guys go in, goodbye."
The elevator happened to arrive, Luo Heng took Bai Wu in and waved goodbye to them.
Watching the elevator go down and making sure there was no risk of it opening suddenly, Lu Yun let out a long sigh.
An Nuo found it funny: "...Were you nervous just now too?"
He didn't notice it at all. In his eyes, Lu Yunyan was no different from usual.
Lu Yunyan said, "Of course I'm nervous."
But whether it is true or false, only Lu Yunyan himself knows.
"My mother-in-law suddenly wanted to come for a home visit. How could I not be nervous? The moment he walked in, he wanted to chop me into pieces with his eyes."
“…”
That’s right, how could Lu Yunyan not feel it.
Lu Yunyan said half-jokingly: "So how was my performance tonight? Do you think it satisfied my mother-in-law?"
