106: Chapter 106: The Dandelion that has Landed 106: Chapter 106: The Dandelion that has Landed Lin Shuang was supposed to have a eting at Xiao Lin Group in the afternoon.
But now, whatever, doesn’t matter what eting it is.
He swiftly sent a ssage to Secretary Xia Yixin, “Secretary Xia, please handle the afternoon eting for !”
Secretary Xia replied quickly, “Son-in-law, but there’s a special guest at this afternoon’s eting?”
Yan Han was pulling at the hem of his clothes, and he plopped back down on the couch.
Continuing with rapid text ssages to Secretary Xia, “How co I, the boss, don’t know about any special guest?”
“The young miss is rushing back…
she’s on her way now…”
So that little witch Xia Yubing finally got finished with her parents and is coming back.
Lin Shuang glanced at Yan Han, who was still clutching the hem of his clothes.
“The eting can be postponed…
I believe in your capabilities, Secretary Xia!
I’m dealing with sothing, I’ll co over as soon as I’m done!”
Inside the boss’s office at Xiao Lin Group, Xia Yixin saw the ssage and slumped over in the boss chair in utter despair.
Forget it…
as a secretary, I’ll just increase my budget for so snacks.
Let’s eat him broke!!!
Hmm, and that new “Green Plum” milk tea shop sounds good, let’s order one to try…
Order a few more cups!
Drink the boss poor!
On Lin Shuang’s side.
Huahua, the tricolor cat, was still earnestly rubbing against his trouser leg.
Rubbing off a lot of cat fur.
Yan Han kept her head down and couldn’t speak any further.
As if that sentence, had taken all her energy.
So Lin Shuang just stroked the tricolor cat, casually bringing up other matters.
He wanted to share with Yan Han anything interesting that happened.
“Our milk tea shop’s opening performance was all planned by .”
Though Lin Shuang was busy battling with the little tricolor cat, his eyes remained fixed on Yan Han.
“The program received a great response.
Maybe I really do have so talent for directing?
Let tell you the story I directed…”
He recounted the thrilling story to Yan Han once more.
After listening carefully, Yan Han was more concerned about, “Is your milk tea…
tasty?”
ntioning this, Lin Shuang got even more excited, “Of course, it’s the best in Huai City, I have a secret recipe!
I’ll order a takeout for you.”
Actually, this was Yan Han’s intention…
She knew that as soon as the topic of milk tea ca up, Lin Shuang would definitely order her a cup right away.
During the wait for the milk tea delivery…
he can stay a bit longer.
Just a little longer would be nice…
Huahua, who had been rubbing against Lin Shuang’s legs for a while, owed and angrily ran away.
Damn janitor, I’ve been performing so hard for so long!
Where is my chicken leg?
Pay my appearance fee!
But Lin Shuang wasn’t in the mood to care about this tricolor cat now.
He was more concerned about…what was going on with Yan Han.
It seed that she did actually want him to stay with her a little longer.
But why does she strongly refuse every ti he ntions moving back ho?
He doesn’t understand…
Lin Shuang tried again, “Xiao Han, think about it again, about moving back in with …”
He was cut off midway, Yan Han stretched out her hand and covered his mouth.
He thought she was going to refuse again, but this ti what she said was, “Brother Shuang.”
Her voice was so soft, as if it would be scattered by a breeze.
Lin Shuang really…
it had been a very long ti since he’d heard that na.
The last ti…
was it when his parents were still around?
For a mont he was filled with mixed emotions, his eyes warming.
He held her hand, “Hmm, Xiao Han, I’m here.”
“Take a little nap.”
“Hmm?”
Yan Han continued to speak softly, as if muttering in a dream, “Just lie down here, on the couch, and sleep for a while…
No matter what happens, do not wake up, do not rember, just treat it like a dream.”
Although Lin Shuang didn’t quite understand what was going on,
he obediently lay down on the couch and closed his eyes.
It was just pretending to sleep…
he had a skill for feigning sleep.
Yan Han quietly sat by his side for a while, seemingly waiting for him to fall asleep.
Lin Shuang also did his best to play the part as if he had already slept.
In the room, there were only the occasional owing sounds of Huahua.
After a while, Yan Han finally moved.
She shifted her position, crouched beside the couch, and leaned her face close to the “sleeping” Lin Shuang.
Then she reached out both hands, touching Lin Shuang’s cheeks.
Gently and carefully, she stroked over every contour of his face, every feature, every piece of skin.
The pretending Lin Shuang imdiately understood what Yan Han was doing.
She was using her hands…
to rember his appearance…
Or rather, to update her mory.
Throughout the years they had deliberately estranged, had he changed at all?
His stubble seed to have grown a bit, and a lot had sprouted on his chin.
His eyebrows were still as thick as before, and his nose still so straight.
The hair at his temples had grown out a bit, ti to get it cut.
The corners of his eyes and his forehead, would there be wrinkles?
Thankfully, there seed to be none…
Brother Shuang must have worried a lot for my sake…
As Yan Han’s hands caressed Lin Shuang’s facial contours, she intensely visualized in her mind.
His appearance.
At last, her fingertips lingered at his Adam’s apple, quietly feeling his breathing rise and fall.
An indefinite amount of ti passed by.
Yan Han softly spoke again, but this ti, it seed more resolute than before.
Like a dandelion blown for ten thousand miles by the wind, it had finally found a place to take root.
To establish roots.
“Brother Shuang…
go tend to your matters, don’t worry about Xiao Han, I’ll be just fine.”
“Just co to see once a week, once is enough.”
“…Okay, you can wake up now, Brother Shuang.”
“You need to forget all this, okay?
You know, Xiao Han has always been quite headstrong…”
Lin Shuang held her hand and slowly sat up.
The milk tea delivery had just arrived.
He fetched it, opened it, and handed it to Yan Han.
Chewing on the straw, Yan Han took a sip, “You’re awake, huh?
You slept quite a long ti, you can go now.”
She had returned to being the Yan Han who deliberately distanced herself from him.
As if everything that had just occurred was really just a dream.
Lin Shuang looked deeply into her eyes.
Yan Han, impatient, waved her hand dismissively, “Alright, go on, go do whatever you need to do.”
“Okay…
then I’ll go work hard?”
“Who cares about you.”
Hearing the sound of Lin Shuang closing the door as he left.
Yan Han bit her straw and took a big gulp of milk tea.
It was indeed delicious, the sweetness was just right.
She then set down the milk tea, her steps light as she went to grab cat food for Huahua.
She had forgotten to feed Huahua today…
she must be starving.
“Huahua, you had a tough day today, huh?
I’ll reward you with an extra cat treat.”
“ow ow ow?”
“You can’t have any more…
this is enough, it’s sufficient.”
