Sister Zhao saw that the light in the master bedroom was still on and guessed that Yan Wanning was probably still waiting for Lu Lin.

She thought about it and went up to knock on the door.

Not long after, Yan Wanning came over to open the door.

She was surprised and asked, "Sister Zhao? Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Sister Zhao: "I'm a little thirsty, so I wanted to come out to get a glass of water. I saw that the light in your room was still on, so I guessed that you were still awake, so I wanted to come and see you."

"Ma'am, are you still waiting for the gentleman?"

Sister Zhao was in her forties or fifties, with a very gentle temperament. Her face was full of concern, which made Yan Wanning feel warm inside.

She smiled and said, "I wasn't waiting for him specifically. I just couldn't sleep anyway."

Sister Zhao frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly suffer from insomnia?"

Although she had not been working in the villa for a long time, she observed that Yan Wanning's daily routine had always been very regular.

This is the first time I have experienced insomnia.

Yan Wanning shook her head: "Nothing, Sister Zhao, go back to your room and sleep first, don't worry about me, I'll sleep in a while."

She acted very naturally, as if she really had nothing on her mind.

Sister Zhao was still worried, "Madam, I'll go get you a cup of milk. Drink it and you'll sleep better."

Yan Wanning could see that Sister Zhao was a kind-hearted person, and her kindness would probably be hard to refuse.

So he smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Sister Zhao."

Sister Zhao: "It's not a bother, it's not a bother. Taking care of the Madam is what I should do."

She went downstairs quickly and went to the kitchen to heat up the milk.

Not long after, she came back with the milk.

Yan Wanning drank the milk and read a book for a while, then gradually felt sleepy.

When Lu Lin returned home, it was already three o'clock in the morning.

In order not to wake Yan Wanning up, he went to another guest room to take a shower and wash off the smell of cigarette smoke, then he tiptoed to Yan Wanning's side and lay down.

As soon as she lay down, Yan Wanning turned over towards him, with her soft arms lazily resting on his chest.

Whispering softly: "Ah Lin."

Lu Lin was a little surprised: "Why haven't you slept yet?"

When he didn't get her response, he realized that the call was just a dream.

Lu Lin held her tightly in his arms, let out a long sigh, and gradually fell asleep with her.

The next morning, when Yan Wanning woke up, there was no one around him.

Was the warm embrace that I vaguely felt last night just a dream?

So what is so important that I haven’t finished dealing with it even after spending the whole night on it?

Yan Wanning sat on the bed, looking a little lost.

After a while, footsteps were heard outside the door.

The door of the room was pushed open, and a man with an apron tied around his waist leaned against the door frame, smiling gently: "Awake?"

Yan Wanning's eyes became visibly brighter. She jumped out of the bed and ran over without even having time to put on her slippers.

"When did you come back?"

Lu Lin picked her up by the waist and asked, "Why don't you wear shoes? Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

Yan Wanning was carried back to the bed by him and sat down, staring blankly at the tall man squatting in front of her.

Hold her feet and help her put on her slippers.

"The weather is not too cold now, so I won't catch a cold."

Lu Lin: "You have to be careful too."

He looked at his watch and said, "It's not even nine o'clock yet. Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

Yan Wanning shook her head. "No need. I slept very soundly last night and I'm already well rested."

Lu Lin: "Now that you have had enough sleep, go wash up and come with me to eat."

Yan Wanning: "You haven't told me when you came back last night."

Lu Lin avoided the question somewhat, "I didn't pay attention to the time. I just knew that you were asleep when I came back."

"Hurry up and wash up, the porridge is getting cold."

"I made this fish porridge myself. Come and try it and see if my cooking skills have improved."

He pushed Yan Wanning to the bathroom.

Yan Wanning wanted to ask more questions, but Lu Lin mischievously tickled her waist twice, making her so itchy that she almost jumped up. She begged for mercy and ran to the bathroom.

What she didn't know was that the smile on Lu Lin's face behind her disappeared after she ran away.

He heard from Sister Zhao in the morning that Yan Wanning, that silly woman, actually waited for him until two in the morning before going to bed.

Is she concerned about what he did last night? How should he explain Qiao Shanshan's matter to her now?

The two of them sat down in the restaurant together, and soon Sister Zhao put breakfast on the table.

She smiled and said, "Madam, these are made for you by the gentleman who got up at seven in the morning."

"I want to help, but he won't let me get involved."

"Try it and see if it tastes to your liking."

Yan Wanning looked towards Lu Lin, who was looking at her with great anticipation.

She scooped up a spoonful of fish porridge and put it into her mouth.

The fish bones have been picked out, and the meat slices melt in your mouth, fresh, fragrant and soft.

She smiled and nodded, "Delicious."

Lu Lin seemed to be relieved, "If it tastes good, eat more."

Sister Zhao smiled and stepped back, leaving the restaurant for them to be alone together.

Yan Wanning couldn't help but wonder: "Why did you suddenly think of making breakfast for me?"

Lu Lin: "You are going to have surgery today. As your husband, I naturally have to take care of you personally at this time."

As he said this, he put another fried egg on her plate.

Yan Wanning was stunned for a moment, as if he almost forgot about the surgery.

She asked, "What time is your surgery scheduled for?"

Lu Lin: "Two o'clock in the afternoon."

Seeing Yan Wanning's anxious expression, he was worried that she would regret it at the last minute, so he quickly asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Yan Wanning frowned slightly: "This is my first time to have surgery, I'm a little scared."

Lu Lin smiled and comforted her: "It's just a minor operation, there's nothing to be afraid of."

"I've consulted, and the abortion procedure only takes half an hour at most."

"You will be able to walk around the day after surgery, and you will be back to your pre-operative condition after three to five days."

"And I have hired a top medical team. They will minimize the harm of the surgery to you."

"Wanwan, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you."

He held Yan Wanning's hand tightly, as if he wanted to pass on his strength to her.

Yan Wanning looked at him expectantly: "Will you be by my side during the operation?"

Lu Lin couldn't help but laugh: "I have cleared all my time for the next week."

"Not only during your surgery, but I will stay by your side until your body fully recovers."

Yan Wanning was surprised and asked, "There are so many things going on in the company. Is it really okay for you not to go for a week?"

Lu Lin gently pinched her face and said, "No matter how big the problem is, it is not as important as your health and mood."

Yan Wanning stared at him blankly, her heartbeat becoming more and more intense.

She never thought that one day she would meet a man who was so good to her.

She is just an ordinary woman who can't be more ordinary and doesn't have too many fantasies about her other half.

She doesn't need her partner to be rich or powerful, nor does she need him to be outstanding in appearance.

As long as he has a skill that is enough to support the family, can respect her career and hobbies, and tolerate her personality.

It is enough to accompany her through an ordinary life.

A man of Lu Lin's status is out of her reach.

At that time, she was unwilling to face her feelings for Lu Lin and wanted to escape from this contract marriage because she knew her own limitations.

She knew that she was as humble as dust and was not worthy of Lu Lin, so she never had any delusions.

But Lu Lin said he liked her and was so good to her.

How could she not fall for it?
