Chapter 646: Chapter 646: Give Me a Glance (2)_1

As he spoke, he made a show of adjusting the necklace, then lifted it up and held it before Han Yixiao’s eyes: "There we go."

Han Yixiao glared at Han Jingnian, red-rimmed eyes welling up with unshed tears, and a lump of unspeakable bitterness clogging her throat.

It was clear that it wasn’t the necklace that was tangled, but rather he was trying to snatch her necklace away!

"So that was the problem, huh? Well, isn’t it untangled now?" Xia Wan’an walked over, took the necklace, and personally put it around Han Yixiao’s neck: "If you wear it around your neck, it won’t get tangled."

A single tear trailed down Han Yixiao’s lashes, followed by a sweet smile towards Xia Wan’an.

Xia Wan’an ruffled her hair, then went to the couch to retrieve her stuff.

As she turned around, Han Jingnian’s icy glare landed on the necklace Han Yixiao was wearing. Sensing his gaze, Han Yixiao raised her hand instinctively to protect the necklace, anger flooding her face once more.

In the silent standoff between the two siblings, Xia Wan’an, who was scavenging for her phone under a pile of red banknotes, couldn’t help but ask: "What’s the deal here? How did this money end up scattered everywhere?"

Before Han Yixiao was even able to respond, Han Jingnian, seated on the couch, stood up slowly seeing Xia Wan’an had gathered her belongings. He put his arm around her waist to lead her to the door, saying a few words in passing: "Pocket money for her."

Left behind, Han Yixiao thought: "...What ’pocket money’? This is clearly the money to buy my necklace!"

On their way home, Xia Wan’an couldn’t tell if it was her perception, but she felt that Han Jingnian, who was driving, was somewhat upset, seemingly displeased by something.

Just as they were about to reach their neighborhood, Han Jingnian broke his silence: "You’ve personally crafted many pieces as gifts?"

"Yes," replied a somewhat drowsy Xia Wan’an, she had been dozing off with her head resting on the seat. Woken up by Han Jingnian’s words, she nodded and opened her eyes: "I’ve designed two sets for Youman, a pair of earrings for Qin Shujian, and a tie clip for Zhijin..."

The car came to an abrupt halt.

Xia Wan’an was jerked forward, cutting her sentence short.

By the time she was seated securely again, Han Jingnian had already navigated the car into the underground parking.

As soon as the car stopped, Han Jingnian swung open his door and got out. Normally he would open the door for Xia Wan’an, but this time he went straight to the elevator.

Back home, he entered his study without uttering a single word.

Xia Wan’an stared at the study door that Han Jingnian had slammed shut and decided he must be busy with something urgent. So, she went to take a shower.

Getting out of the bathroom with her hair dried, Xia Wan’an saw that Han Jingnian had not returned to the bedroom yet. Wondering, she peeked into his study and saw him seemingly working at his computer. She returned to the bedroom and started applying her skincare products.

After tidying herself up, she went into the kitchen, poured a cup of warm milk and drank it. Seeing no signs of the study door opening, she went over there again. This time she didn’t leave seeing him busy. Instead, she asked, "It’s late, aren’t you going to bed?"

With his usual brevity, Han Jingnian responded: "Busy."

This was not being busy... he was clearly sulking...

Because she got home late? Unlikely, she cajoled him, and he even picked her up... then...

All of a sudden, Xia Wan’an remembered the conversation in the car about gifts... Could he be jealous because she had given Han Yixiao a gift?
