Hearing her say that, Lu Yanci's smile deepened considerably.
"My biological clock is quite regular. I wake up between 6:00 and 6:30 every day, and it won't bother me."
Qin Yue knew that he had a habit of getting up early to exercise.
"Won't a hangover have any effect?"
"Yes, I woke up at 6:10 today, but my head still hurts. I didn't go for a run, but I read a book on the balcony for a while."
"People who can achieve great things are indeed incredibly self-disciplined." Qin Yue held his hand and followed him into the entrance hall.
The housekeeper had prepared disposable slippers in the shoe cabinet. Lu Yanci placed the lunchbox on top of the shoe cabinet, took out the slippers, and placed them next to her feet: "Are you interested in morning runs? If you are, how about we go together every day?"
Qin Yue politely declined the offer.
It's okay for a day or two, but getting up at that time every day is something she can hardly guarantee she can do.
After helping him change his shoes, the two walked inside.
Both houses belong to the same developer and look very similar from the outside, but the interior decorations are quite different. The Qin family's house has a brown retro style, while his entire living room has a simple modern style with black, white and gray tones.
Qin Yue saw the aunt carrying breakfast from the kitchen to the dining room.
"It seems I should have told you in advance."
Have you eaten?
Qin Yue nodded slightly.
Lu Yanci led her to the restaurant: "I have a big appetite, and Auntie doesn't usually prepare much, so I can finish it."
Normally, the housekeeper would wait until he finished breakfast and the housekeeper finished cleaning up before leaving the villa. Today, however, Lu Yanci waited until she had set out the dishes before letting her leave.
Qin Yue usually eats breakfast until she's about 70% full and doesn't feel anything, but watching him eat now, she can't help but feel an emptiness in her stomach, and her gaze unconsciously follows his eating movements.
The breakfast she brought was small but exquisite.
After finishing the breakfast she brought, Lu Yanci finally started eating the food prepared by the housekeeper.
The aunt made a few shrimp dumplings. I picked up a crystal shrimp dumpling with my chopsticks. It looked thin-skinned and translucent.
There were four shrimp dumplings. Lu Yanci quickly finished two of them. She couldn't help but swallow, and picked up another one with her chopsticks. Just as she was lost in thought, the shrimp dumpling was brought to her mouth.
She looked at Lu Yanci in surprise.
Lu Yanci smiled and said in a relatively calm tone, "The cook's skills are quite good. Try it and see if it suits your taste."
My cheeks suddenly felt hot.
Could it be that he figured out I wanted to eat it?
Qin Yue gave a soft "hmm," opened her mouth, and bit the shrimp dumpling that was brought to her lips.
The taste is good.
However, Aunt Qin's cooking skills are also quite good, and she has eaten quite a few kinds of steamed dumplings, so the shrimp dumplings she tasted were not particularly amazing.
When Lu Yanci asked how she was, she swallowed before replying, "I think it's pretty good."
Hearing this, he picked up the last one and brought it to her lips, but Qin Yue didn't eat it. Instead, she pointed to a piece of sliced pancake and said, "Can I try that?"
The aunt prepared two sets of tableware, but Lu Yanci did not let her do it. After putting the steamed dumplings into his own mouth, he picked up a piece of pancake and fed it to her as she asked.
She preferred the taste of the vegetable pancakes, and before she knew it, half of the pancakes on the plate were in her stomach.
Lu Yanci wanted to continue feeding her, but she quickly raised her hand to stop him, saying, "I'm full."
A fleeting hint of regret crossed the man's eyes; he could no longer enjoy the pleasure of feeding the animals.
He took the soy milk from across the table and placed it next to her.
Qin Yue only took two sips before she couldn't drink anymore. The man took it from her very naturally and drank it all without even blinking.
Qin Yue felt even hotter.
She was about to suggest waiting for him on the sofa in the living room when he asked for her opinion, saying, "From now on, I'll have the housekeeper prepare two breakfasts, and I'll bring you over to eat together?"
Qin Yue: "It's just a few steps away, it only takes a few minutes to walk there, there's no need for you to come and pick me up."
“Okay, from now on I’ll have Auntie prepare two portions. You can just come over. What time? Isn’t this time too early for you?” Lu Yanci asked casually.
Qin Yue: "..."
Is that considered an agreement between them?
Fortunately, the place I stayed wasn't far away; it was only a few minutes' walk.
Qin Yue checked the time: "I'll come around this time."
Lu Yanci breathed a silent sigh of relief.
"Hmm, do you have any dietary restrictions, or what your breakfast preferences are? I'll tell Auntie and she can prepare it according to your taste."
"No, just prepare one serving based on how much you usually eat."
After finishing their meal, Lu Yanci was cleaning up the dishes when Qin Yue followed him into the kitchen with two pairs of chopsticks, watching him put the dishes into the dishwasher.
Lu Yanci usually lives in the master bedroom on the first floor.
He went to the bedroom to change his clothes, while Qin Yue waited in the living room.
About ten minutes later, a man dressed in a suit and tie came out of the bedroom. The well-tailored suit made him look even more upright, and the unapproachable distance he exuded when he didn't speak reappeared.
Qin Yue was momentarily stunned. To be honest, she also found it hard to believe that she would be with him so quickly.
Seeing her staring intently at him, Lu Yanci lowered his eyelids and quickly glanced at himself: "Is there something wrong with my clothes?"
Qin Yue snapped out of her reverie and said calmly, "No, I was just wondering why I didn't see Tangyuan?"
Qin Yue named her kitten Tuanyuan (meaning "reunion"), so Lu Yanci named it Tangyuan (meaning "glutinous rice ball").
Upon hearing this, Lu Yanci returned to his room and brought Tangyuan out. The chubby little dumpling was familiar with Qin Yue and nestled obediently in her arms.
As Qin Yue stroked the kitten's head, intending to put it back in the room, Lu Yanci took the cat back, opened the bedroom door a crack, put the cat inside, and then closed the door.
Judging from his appearance, anyone who didn't know better would think he had some unspeakable secret in his room.
The moment Lu Yanci closed the door, he knew his reaction was wrong.
The two were boyfriend and girlfriend, and Qin Yue still had no intention of checking his privacy, but his behavior aroused her curiosity.
Curious about what might be in the room, he only dared to open the door a crack.
Qin Yue looked at him, her expression revealing nothing unusual, and said calmly, "Let's go, it's time to go to the company."
Lu Yanci's first thought was that he was afraid she would ask more questions, but when she didn't ask anything, he felt uncomfortable.
It's as if I'm not that important to her...
They hadn't spent much time together, their relationship wasn't strong, so it was understandable that she didn't care much about him and was rather distant and polite.
She once said that feelings develop over time.
Feelings take time to build up.
He should be more worried about what she might misunderstand, and what if she thinks he's being wary of her?
After convincing himself, Lu Yanci raised his hand and grasped her wrist: "I suddenly remembered that I forgot to change Tangyuan's water. Let's change the water before we leave."
As he spoke, Lu Yanci opened the door to the room and led her inside.
