Chapter 271 - Always be with him…
“I... ” Ning Xiaofei panicked and dropped her eyes to avoid Mu Tianye’s eyes. Then she scrambled to gather up the box lids and plastic bags on the table. “I’ll go cook some more noodles for you.”
She rushed all the way to the door and pulled it open, and turned around to add another sentence.
“Just lie still.”
Watching her flee with the door unlocked, Mu Tianye raised his hand to rub his chin.
He was probably too direct, right?
Right, girls were usually more reserved. It would have been weird if she wasn’t scared away when he asked such a question.
With his palm gently caressing the warm wine bottle beneath the blanket, the man’s gaze slowly skimmed over all that Ning Xiaofei had prepared for him everywhere...
She must have cared about him, or else why would she be so nice to him?
Raising his hand to support his head, Mu Tianye glanced sideways at the empty pillow at his side, and the corners of his lips lifted.
In the future, having such a little creature with him all the time...
Life should be so much more interesting!

Downstairs.
Ning fled all the way into the kitchen, turned around to close the door and listened with her ears stuck on the door. Sure that the man hadn’t chased her down the stairs to ask her for answers, she heaved a sigh of relief. She slowly walked over to the trash can and tossed the trash in her hands.
She picked some vegetables and ingredients from the fridge and turned on the faucet to wash them, his voice reverberating through her mind once again.
Love him?
She’d never thought of that.
The water rushed down, but she was lost in thought with a vegetable in her hand.
When he misunderstood her, she was afraid he would be upset. When he was uncomfortable she would be distressed, and she didn’t resent his closeness...
For him, she definitely likes him!
But was it love?
No!
Ning Xiaofei shook her head.
She would never fall in love with anyone, and she didn’t want to.
Back then, Mom loved that person so much and gave up everything for him... But in the end, what happened?
Love was too bitter, and liking him was enough.
That way... someday when he got tired of her, she wouldn’t get hurt or heartbroken, and wouldn’t shed tears at the thought of a man like her mother did.
With this thought, Ning Xiaofei was enlightened and continued to seriously wash and cut the vegetables...
She bent over to sniff the aroma, raised her lips in satisfaction, took a tray and brought the bowl up to him. She carefully carried it out of the kitchen and up the stairs to the door of the master bedroom, where she stopped again.
How should she answer in case that guy asked her again?
Say she loved him?
Against her will.
Say she didn’t?
He would definitely be upset.
Wondering how to respond, she gently pushed the flimsy door open and peered inside.
On the pillow, Mu Tianye was dozing off, his expression relaxed, and he was already asleep.
Ning Xiaofei was so relieved that she didn’t disturb his rest. She turned around and gently went downstairs, placing the noodles on the table as she sat down at the table.
Mulling over his question, her mind was troubled again.
If he asked again, how would she answer?
She scratched her hair and she shook her head.
It was just a whim, and he might forget about it in the morning. She hadn’t had much dinner and served him patronizingly that her stomach was already beginning to protest, so she ate first.
.....
.....
That night, Mu Tianye slept extremely soundly. The man whose biological clock has always been punctual remained in bed late.
When he woke up, it was already past eight o’clock in the morning. The side of the pillow was empty and no one was there. He dressed himself and went downstairs, saw Ms. Liu coming out of the kitchen.
