Chapter 1117: Quick, Show Me
Things were put away and clothes were changed, and they were given to Auntie He to be sent for washing .
Lu Man cleaned herself up as well to ready herself for bed .
Since her first lesson was at 10 am, Lu Man need not wake up too early .
Still dazed from her sleep, she heard rustling sounds from beside her .
Lu Man’s eyes opened a slit after much struggle .
The light from outside the window was not too bright, throwing the room into a blurry haze with its pale green glow .
Lu Man could barely make out Han Zhuoli’s silhouette .
Stretching out her hands, Lu Man groped blindly before switching on the light .
The room brightened in an instant .
“Did I wake you?” Han Zhuoli turned to look at her .
Lu Man shook her head . “Why didn’t you switch on the light?”
“Might wake you up . ” Han Zhuoli was wearing his blouse .
Lu Man turned to lie on her side and use her arms as pillows while looking at him comfortably . “S’alright, I can sleep even with the lights on . You shouldn’t stumble around in the dark . What if you hurt yourself?”
Han Zhuoli swiftly dressed himself thanks to the bright light .
When he walked over to her, he already had his familiar scent of mint on him .
Han Zhuoli lowered his head to kiss her on the lips, and the minty flavor of his toothpaste went from his mouth to hers .
“You sleep,” Han Zhuoli said softly, “I’ll go first . ”
Lu Man had found out that Han Zhuoli would go to work early in the morning, far earlier than all his employees, only after living with him .
A typical employee would arrive at the company before 9 am, but Han Zhuoli would usually arrive at 7 am to start a day’s work .
But he changed his habits to chauffeur her—to work from home first before going to fetch her on his way when it was time .
Ever since Lu Man moved in with him, and because it was a school break, Han Zhuoli had gone back to his previous routine .
Now that Han Zhuoli had arranged a private chauffeur, Xiao Guo, for her, he did not need to drive for her personally .
Lu Man hooked Han Zhuoli’s neck with both arms and dragged him down, kissing his freshly shaven chin .
There was no stubble, only the clean smell of his aftershave .
“Come back early,” Lu Man said as she released him .
With her at home, he wished fervently that he did not have to go to work . He’d much rather work from home and keep her company . So how would he stay out late? Han Zhuoli thought .
“I’ll be home early as long as nothing crops up,” Han Zhuoli promised .
Hearing this, Lu Man frowned and said, “Never mind, then . Don’t rush and push yourself too hard and make yourself so tired . ”
Han Zhuoli laughed . This little girl wanted him home early yet was afraid for him to be tired .
“Go on, then . ” Lu Man was embarrassed to delay him any longer .
“Okay . ” Han Zhuoli kissed her forehead . “Go back to sleep . ”
Lu Man nodded but insisted on watching him leave the bedroom . She heard—faintly, from downstairs—him close the door and leave before going to sleep again .
Han Zhuoli left at 6 am, and Lu Man slept until 8:30 am .
After she had freshened up and ate breakfast, Xiao Guo sent her to school .
Because she started school a few days late, everyone looked at her when she entered the classroom .
Lu Man smiled and went to her seat .
Zheng Yuan turned around and grabbed Lu Man’s hand . “Quick, let me see . ”
“What?” Lu Man asked .
“The wedding ring!” Zheng Yuan said .
Han Zhuoli had already posted pictures of his marriage certificate on Weibo . No one else but Lu Man would be his wife .
Zheng Yuan’s voice was neither loud nor soft, and usually, it would be drowned out by the chatterings of other students .
