Chapter 405: Chapter 442
With one cheek still puffily stuffed, she slowly glanced over, as if to casually sneak a peek at the person across from her.
However, as she looked up, she found that the person opposite was also glancing her way at just that mont.
Suddenly, their gaze t across the dining table—
“…”
Shen Lin saw her looking like a little blowfish, her cheeks still puffed up, her clear eyes tinged red with a hint of surprise, which made his heart inexplicably tremble.
But the next second, he heard her lower her head and mumble unclearly,
“I don’t want him, he’s too old.”
“Pfft…!”
Wen Xian couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
Shen Lin had three lines of frustration drawn upon his forehead, “…”
Who’s old, who are you calling old!
He’s not even thirty yet! Plus, being older ans being mature, not so young kid, doesn’t that make him better than her cheating ex-boyfriend?!
Although he had many girlfriends before, he had his principles.
He wouldn’t ss around!
The day he saved her, seeing her body had been an unavoidable accident.
Shen Lin took a deep breath, feeling more aggrieved the more he thought about it.
Not only had he saved her, but he also endured being seen as a pervert, insulted as a poor bastard and criticized for being old in front of so many people, and he hadn’t even complained about her being young!
Young, young…
Thinking of sothing tender and fresh, Shen Lin’s face turned a bit peculiar.
Realizing what he was thinking, he cursed under his breath.
Afterward, his expression grew even more complex as he looked again at the little girl who was bowing her head to eat.
Her figure also resembled that of a high school student, green and tender to an extent that nobody would think she was already in college.
Li Zaijun was sipping soup quietly when she suddenly heard the man across from her say with a joking laugh,
“Auntie, please don’t tease , Lu Xiao’s little sister is quite cute, but I prefer the mature and sexy type.”
As he spoke, he waved his hand, “There’s no chance between us two.”
At these words—
Li Zaijun’s body again stiffened.
She didn’t look up, but the fine, fair hand holding the spoon tensed up, and her pale hand began to turn slightly red.
Her neck and the roots of her ears gradually also turned red.
Whether it was from anger or embarrassnt was uncertain.
Finally, the al was finished.
That evening, Shen Lin was about to leave, and Lu Xiao didn’t escort him this ti.
Li Zaijun had finished eating early, so she went out to pick up her package from a nearby courier station.
Therefore, when she returned and pushed open the large gate of the courtyard, she happened to encounter a man coming out.
The screen wall opposite the courtyard blocked all views of the main hall and other rooms.
Upon seeing the man, Li Zaijun’s heart skipped a beat.
She quickly lowered her head, holding her package, attempting to pass by, but sohow, as she moved to the left, the man beside her also moved to the left.
When she stepped to the right, the man beside her also stepped to the right.
Her breath hitched at that mont, and she looked up at him.
But that just brought her directly into his gaze, his long eyelashes framing light-colored pupils that simply gazed at her.
No one could discern his intentions at that mont.
Li Zaijun’s breathing beco inexplicably erratic, and she bit her lip as she said,
“What are you doing, deliberately picking a fight?”
Unexpectedly, as soon as those words left her mouth, Shen Lin hooked the corner of his lips and chuckled softly, and the next second, he suddenly placed a large palm against the big door behind her.
Li Zaijun was startled, while his body leaned forward, slightly tilting his head, his lips brushing her earlobe.
“Who’s picking a fight? Who is ungrateful, and who called a pauper, said I’m old?”
He tallied up the score in a leisurely tone.
