Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Her Confidence

Leng Yan’s heart trembled slightly, had he seen it wrong? In her tone and in her eyes, there was unexpectedly a sense of pity for him...

So resembling someone!

She used to look at him like this when he was hurt. But, much later, she said it wasn’t love, it was pity...

He didn’t need pity, not at all!

"I’m fine, go to sleep. I’m going to take a shower."

Thinking of that fragile shadow, he straightened his spine, stood up, and walked directly to the bathroom.

In the bright light, Wen Nuan saw his fist clenched at some point, veins pulsing. Her brows furrowed, wanting to comfort him, but the coldness emanating from him made her hesitate to approach.

What on earth had happened, Leng Yan ultimately never told her.

Life continued as it had before, with most of his time spent at the company. By the time he came home, she was usually already asleep. When she woke up in the morning, he had already left. Occasionally, she would feel someone hugging her from behind, but it was just a fleeting moment, and when she awoke, Leng Yan still had his back to her.

The morning light had yet to shine in when a sudden urgent ringtone startled her awake from her dream. Wen Nuan picked up her phone, just about to turn off the ringtone, when she suddenly sat up with a jolt.

Today is Thursday, the day of the interview at MT.

She lightly tapped her head, smiling bitterly, lately with nothing to do, her habit of sleeping in has really grown.

"Why are you up so early?"

The gentle voice came from the bathroom, causing Wen Nuan to be taken aback, her eyebrows instantly lighting up with joy: "You haven’t left yet?"

It’s been several days since they’ve seen each other while both were awake.

"It’s only six o’clock, eager for me to leave?"

He emerged from the room wearing sky-blue pajamas, looking freshly washed.

The casual clothes, which hardly flattered anyone, carried a natural air of nobility when worn by him, with an added touch of warmth due to morning laziness.

Turns out, he looks handsome even in loungewear.

Wen Nuan sat hugging the quilt, somewhat mesmerized, seeing him frown slightly under her gaze, she quickly withdrew her starstruck expression, glanced downwards, and softly asked:

"I have an interview today, do you have time to come home for dinner tonight?"

"Interview? ... Oh, I forgot, you said after the interview you’d treat me to dinner." Leng Yan was briefly stunned before recalling the reason for her invitation to dinner.

"Tonight..." He pondered, checking today’s schedule, and it seemed there was nothing planned for the evening.

"You can’t?" His hesitation made her disappointed, lifting her face, she blinked her eyes at him: "Are you very busy?"

These days, she had been fervently practicing her cooking skills, having wasted countless vegetables, finally making it look not too embarrassing. But, was it all useless?

"I only promised if you get hired. Are you confident?"

Leng Yan raised an eyebrow, seeing her pitiable look, he suddenly felt playful.

"Of course! I’m sure I can get hired."

Wen Nuan didn’t even flinch a brow, her confidence glowing through the soft pure white silk quilt, confident, innocent, lovely, lively...

In that instant, Leng Yan thought of every beautiful word that could be applied to a girl.

"Alright, I’ll come home tonight."

He didn’t notice that as he spoke, the smile in his brows and eyes lit up the entire spring.

It was the most radiant smile she had seen from him since three years ago.

It warmed the spring, warmed her heart, making her fall in love wholeheartedly.

Turns out, besides being cold and pretending, he could also smile at her happily...
