Chapter 41: Chapter 41 Who Do You Hope Will Come?
Bao Shaojin drove up the slope at a reckless speed, the car moving with an imposing force.
As his car flashed by and passed the gate of one of the villas, it happened to be seen by Su Nan standing on the third-floor balcony.
He was casually draped in a bathrobe, slightly open at the front, revealing his muscular chest, providing a visual impact of height and strength. His somewhat feminine face was wearing sunglasses at the moment, making it hard to discern the emotions in his eyes. In broad daylight, he held a glass in his hand, surrounded by the rich aroma of wine, both fragrant and pure.
The next second, he returned to the room, taking out a phone and skillfully dialed a number.
After ringing five times, the call was connected.
"What’s the matter?" Bao Shaojin’s tone was indifferent.
"Haven’t seen you in a while, care for a drink?" Su Nan invited, staring at his glass.
"Beep beep beep..."
The call was hung up. Su Nan looked at the phone screen, lamenting the dullness of life!
On the other side, An Yin sat anxiously in the passenger seat, watching the man beside her skillfully hang up the phone. The words she intended to speak were swallowed back.
Whatever was said on the other end of the line, An Yin could clearly feel the man beside her was not pleased.
"Get out!"
Bao Shaojin ignored her puzzled gaze and casually said.
"Oh!"
After getting out of the car, An Yin followed closely behind him with quick little steps.
From the moment she stepped into this traditional mansion, An Yin’s curious eyes couldn’t help but dart around.
Passing through the main gate, through the front hall, by a waterside pavilion, surrounded by low walls, it felt as if she was in an ancient residence, tranquil and solemn!
Bao Shaojin led her to the back garden, sitting down in a stone pavilion.
Soon after sitting down, a woman hurriedly approached. Seeing who was seated in the pavilion, her face broke into a smile, "The Eldest Young Master is back, I’ll set the table immediately."
"Aunt Zhang, we will eat here," Bao Shaojin instructed, looking at the woman in the distance.
"Alright, alright." Aunt Zhang responded, then noticed the young girl standing next to the Eldest Young Master, her eyes lit up with excitement she couldn’t hide, "Eldest Young Master, who is this?"
Aunt Zhang was genuinely curious, and couldn’t help but ask one more question.
Bao Shaojin’s eyes turned cold, showing no intention to respond.
Aunt Zhang’s smile promptly froze, her face a bit stiff, but she directed her gaze at the young girl.
Recalling the man’s earlier address for her, An Yin flashed a gentle smile and softly said, "Hello, Aunt Zhang, my name is An Yin!"
"Hello, Miss An!" Aunt Zhang, looking at the quiet and well-mannered young girl, was even more delighted.
Having been with the Bao Family for so many years, it was the first time Aunt Zhang had seen the Eldest Young Master bring a young girl home. The idea that this young girl had no connection with the Eldest Young Master was unbelievable to Aunt Zhang!
Hearing such a formal address, An Yin couldn’t help but blush.
At this moment, Bao Shaojin glanced coldly in Aunt Zhang’s direction, who took the hint, reined in her curiosity, and slowly withdrew.
"Come, sit." Bao Shaojin, sitting upright with an authoritative posture, simply sitting there gave off a sense of oppression.
"Okay." After obediently sitting, An Yin hesitantly asked, "Weren’t we going to clean the cushions?"
Why was there talk of a meal too?
Despite being very hungry, the thought of dining together with him made An Yin’s heart race wildly.
"It’s not urgent at this moment." Bao Shaojin raised his eyes, looking intently at her.
The young girl maintained a perpetually anxious demeanor; was he going to eat her or sell her? His somber face exuded a chilly aura at the thought.
The atmosphere in the air felt somewhat strange.
Bao Shaojin was dignified and aloof, while the young girl was reserved and quiet.
With one person being cold and the other silent, there was even less to say together.
Soon, Aunt Zhang pushed a food cart over, her eyes darting between them, then silently served the dishes on the stone table.
Exquisite clear soup ginseng, fish-flavored shredded pork, embroidered shark fin, sweet soft almonds, steamed quail with astragalus, and crispy shrimp cakes.
Seeing the array of dishes on the stone table, An Yin’s eyes flashed with shock, and she couldn’t help but ask the man before her, "Is there someone else coming?" Could the two of them finish all this food? Surely, there must be others coming, she thought to herself.
"Who do you hope will come?" Bao Shaojin looked at her coldly.
Hmph, her words seemed to imply she wanted Bao Cheng to come!
"No, no one."
His sudden cold tone left An Yin a bit at a loss.
Aunt Zhang stood by, barely daring to breathe. After serving the dishes, she left the space to the two of them. Before leaving, she cast a worried look at the young girl. Although the Eldest Young Master was usually aloof, he wasn’t prone to such anger.
The Eldest Young Master finally brought a young girl home; if she got scared away... the thought worried Aunt Zhang even more.
At noontime, with the sun shining brightly, in the pavilion where they sat, it didn’t feel stuffy.
Occasionally, a gentle breeze brushed by, making the setting even more comfortable.
"Eat," Bao Shaojin reminded, noticing that she had been staring at the dishes without moving her chopsticks.
"Okay." An Yin nodded.
She picked up her chopsticks, woodenly serving a piece of fish-flavored shredded pork into her bowl, completely unaware that the man was watching her chopstick use.
Her small mouth took a bite of rice, then moved the chopsticks to pick up more food...
Bao Shaojin’s grip on his chopsticks tightened slightly, his gaze paused briefly on the communal serving chopsticks beside him but eventually, he lowered his head and began eating in silence, not using the communal chopsticks throughout.
The more An Yin ate, the more delighted she was! Every dish was of superior taste.
Having skipped breakfast, An Yin consumed three large bowls of rice and a bowl of soup.
When she finally put down her chopsticks, she realized just how much she had eaten. Immediately, she lowered her head, mumbling a bit before finally managing, "Thank you for the meal."
Bao Shaojin looked at her with her head lowered, her flowing black hair draped over her shoulders, swaying gently in the breeze.
The man’s ongoing silence was something An Yin had grown used to; she only wanted to clean the cushions quickly and return to school.
"Now, can we go wash them?" An Yin slowly lifted her head, meeting his deep gaze, and asked.
Her expression held a hint of urgency.
However, her eagerness to leave was perceived by Bao Shaojin as her wanting to leave quickly.
"Yes."
Bao Shaojin stood up, turning away decisively.
An Yin hastily followed his steps.
The man’s strides were long and swift, making An Yin seem like a little rabbit jumping up and down, hurrying behind him.
As they walked through the courtyard, An Yin felt herself winding around endlessly, amazed by the size of this villa. Having walked a considerable distance, she couldn’t distinguish where she was, even as the surrounding picturesque scenery failed to draw her attention. All she wanted was to stay close to the man, afraid of getting lost!
Whimper...
Just how big is this man’s house?
