“I’ll clean up the dishes,” Lin Wan said as she tried to leave.

Upon hearing Lin Wan’s words, Xiao Yichen rose and said, “No need. I’ll take care of it.”

He released his hold on Lin Wan’s hand and went to the dining room.

Although he initially intended to converse with her before tackling the dishes, Lin Wan was preoccupied and decided to do the dishes first.

Upon observing Xiao Yichen carrying the bowls and utensils into the kitchen, Lin Wan remained concerned and followed him inside.

In the small kitchen, Xiao Yichen’s tall figure occupied a significant portion of the space, causing Lin Wan to feel somewhat claustrophobic. She regretted her hasty decision to intervene earlier when she witnessed Xiao Yichen’s adeptness in the kitchen.

Lin Wan followed Xiao Yichen out of the kitchen after the complete cleanup.

Xiao Yichen stood before Lin Wan and extended his arms to envelop her in a warm embrace. He held her tightly, taking in her unique scent.

Lin Wan sensed Xiao Yichen’s breath on her skin, and her heart raced, though she maintained a calm exterior. She responded coolly, “It’s getting late. You should go back and rest.”

“Wan’er,” Xiao Yichen softly called her name before adding, “I’m not leaving tonight.”

Lin Wan remained silent. Her brow furrowed instantly. What does he mean?

He’s not leaving? Is he planning to stay here?

Before Lin Wan could inquire further, Xiao Yichen clarified, “1’11 stay here.”

“There are only two beds, no…” Before Lin Wan could finish, Xiao Yichen interrupted her.

“Where’s your towel? I’m going to take a shower,” Xiao Yichen inquired.

Lin Wan was momentarily puzzled, but she soon understood that Xiao Yichen had made a firm decision. No matter how much she tried to persuade him, it was unlikely to sway him.

1’11 let him sleep on the sofa if he intends to stay!

“The bathroom is over there. It’s the one with the blue door,” Lin Wan informed him.

“Okay,” Xiao Yichen replied. After embracing Lin Wan briefly, he reluctantly released her and proceeded to the bathroom for a shower.

While Xiao Yichen was showering, Lin Wan retrieved a blanket and pillow from her room’s cabinet and placed them on the sofa. She then took a seat and awaited Xiao Yichen’s return.

Once Xiao Yichen emerged from the bathroom and noticed the setup in the living room, his heart warmed at the sight of Lin Wan waiting for him. However, he couldn’t help but notice the blanket and pillow she’d prepared.

Lin Wan saw Xiao Yichen’s entrance as he dried his hair. She rose from her seat and commented, “Since you don’t plan to leave, get some rest.”

With those words, Lin Wan started to head toward her room.

However, before she could enter, Xiao Yichen had already stepped inside.

Lin Wan was perplexed as she observed Xiao Yichen’s entrance and picked up her pace.

“Xiao Yichen, why did you come into my room?” Lin Wan inquired with irritation.

Xiao Yichen glanced at the displeased woman, walked to the door, shut it, and then turned to face her. He explained, “We’ll sleep in here tonight, the two of us.”

With that, he glanced at the 1.5-meter bed in the room. It might not be as large or comfortable as the one at Blue Bay villa, but he didn’t mind as long as she was with him.

“I won’t sleep with you,” Lin Wan declared firmly. “Xiao Yichen, you can sleep on the sofa or return to Blue Bay villa.”

Xiao Yichen took a few steps closer, drawing nearer to Lin Wan. He lowered his head to look at her and expressed, “Wan’er, 1 can only fall asleep when you’re around.”

After saying this, Xiao Yichen gently took Lin Wan’s hand and sat beside the bed.

However, as Lin Wan settled beside him, she abruptly stood and moved toward the door.

“Where are you going?” Xiao Yichen noticed Lin Wan’s actions and swiftly reached out to grasp her arm, preventing her from leaving..
