Chapter 542: Chapter 542: Oh, Man! (2)_1

Han Jingnian lay on the bed, eyes shut, maintaining an icy demeanor, without the slightest flicker of reaction, as though he were asleep.

And indeed, he was doing a decent job of pretending to sleep all night long!

At least, that’s what Xia Wan’an thought, her other hand already reaching out for Han Jingnian’s hand in the covers. She gently rocked their interlocked fingers, then swallowed her pride and blurted out, "I honestly was shaking, and the dress I wore at the dinner party was the one you gifted to me. In my heart, the other dresses were random gifts, but yours...yours was a gift of love..."

Han Jingnian’s eyes remained closed, but Xia Wan’an could sense a slight softening in his rigid body.

However, he showed no intention of speaking or even glancing her way.

She was humbling herself to placate him, and she also resolved to keep going until he cheered up. Xia Wan’an continued, "You asked me which dress looked best earlier. When I said they all looked nice, I was referring to the ones in the living room. I never included your gift in that category. I mean, how could I compare your gift to those?"

Han Jingnian finally opened his eyes to look at Xia Wan’an.

Meeting his gaze, she raised her right hand to his eyes, saying, "This is the hand that shook and made a mistake, let me help you take revenge on it!"

At that, she released Han Jingnian’s left hand and moved as if to strike her right hand.

But just before her left hand could land the blow, Han Jingnian raised his to protect hers.

Xia Wan’an snickered, then clasped Han Jingnian’s hand in both of hers again. "Are you not angry now?"

Han Jingnian just grunted and kept quiet.

"Can we...put this whole dress incident behind us?"

Han Jingnian turned to look at Xia Wan’an, finally breaking his silence, "What do you think?"

"I think...we can move on?"

Han Jingnian chuckled without humor. "You should think carefully about what you’ve said!"

Huh?

Xia Wan’an was confused by Han Jingnian’s words. She blinked twice, then another twice, completely puzzled over what the vinegar-soaked man was pondering. What did he mean by asking her to reflect on her own words — she had said so much, which statement was he referring to?

As Xia Wan’an racked her brain, she failed to guess what Han Jingnian was implying. Eventually, she resorted to toadying up to him. "Eh...can you give me a hint, please?"

Han Jingnian glanced at her but remained silent.

"Can you give me a hint out of love? Please, just a little hint?"

Han Jingnian pressed his lips together, paused, then did it again. Despite his reluctance, he finally gave in to Xia Wan’an’s coaxing and gave her a clue, "The first conference room on the top floor of our company, at the beginning of this month."

The first conference room on the top floor of our company, at the beginning of this month... That hint was far too vague, right?

Biting her lip, Xia Wan’an weakly asked, "Is there a more specific hint?"

Han Jingnian kept his eyes on Xia Wan’an but didn’t say anything.

With a whimsical pout from Xia Wan’an, "Your clue... it’s too abstract for me to comprehend..."

Just as her voice trailed off, Han Jingnian turned swiftly, pinning her beneath him.
