“I ...”

Su ningmei stammered.”I, um ... Ahem, actually, I was just making things up. I thought you were a criminal, so I wanted to say something to make you soften up and let me off. So ... I ...”

How could Xia Anlan not see that su ningmei was lying? she seemed to be avoiding this question very much. She was very flustered, afraid that he would continue to ask.

If that was the case, it meant that she had indeed fallen for a man.

Xia Anlan felt a little uncomfortable. She seemed to like him a little. Could it be that she liked someone else at the same time?

His expression did not change as he nodded.”I see, that’s the case. However ... This excuse doesn’t seem to be very good. If the real criminal heard it, he wouldn’t be moved.”

“Then ...” Su ningmei quickly nodded.”I won’t say that again.”

Xia Anlan laughed.”You’re so cute. You’re still thinking about next time. I hope that you’ll never have such an experience.”

His careless words made su ningmei fall for him again.”I ... I hope there won’t be one.”

“Come,” Xia Anlan picked up his glass,”I hope you’ll be safe from now on.”

Su ningmei took another small sip.”You ... You too.”

“Oh, by the way, are you ... Going to be as busy as you are today tomorrow?”

“That will depend on tomorrow’s weather,” Xia Anlan said.”The weather Bureau staff said that tomorrow’s rainfall will be less. I’ll get someone to quickly solve the water accumulation problem after the rain stops. By then, you’ll be able to leave Sea city and get on the highway. But ... If tomorrow’s rainfall is the same as today, it’ll be a little difficult.”

“This Typhoon came at the wrong time,” su ningmei sighed.

If it wasn’t for the sudden Typhoon, she would have returned to her parents ‘home by now, and so many things wouldn’t have happened.

Thinking about it, she was quite sad.

Xia Anlan consoled her.”Natural and man-made disasters are hard to predict. You’ll never know whether an accident or tomorrow will come first. Besides, you’ve been delayed for two days this time. It’s not necessarily a bad thing. At any time, a person’s safety is the most important, isn’t it? No matter what, at least we can still sit together and eat hotpot now. Isn’t this a lucky thing?”

“Yeah, you’re right ...” Su ningmei nodded.

“By the way, when you came in, I hit you with a vase. I was quite strong at that time. Are you really okay?”

Xia Anlan shook his head.”I’m fine. You can’t hurt me with that little strength of yours.”

His left shoulder still hurt a little. She had used quite a lot of strength at that time.

“If there’s anything, you must tell me.”

Xia Anlan nodded.”Definitely. If I’m hurt, I’ll definitely tell you. I’ll ask you to stay and take care of me for two days and cook for me.”

His words were half-true and half-false, and the smile on his face made su ningmei a little panicked. She quickly lowered her head, picked up the glass, and took a sip.

Before she knew it, she had already downed a glass of white wine and her face was already red.

Xia Anlan sat opposite her and could clearly see that the Pearl’s light reflected on her face, making the two blushes on her cheeks even more moving.

Her eyes seemed to be watery, and her lips were red. She seemed to be a little tipsy. The tip of her tongue inadvertently licked the corner of her lips, and Xia Anlan’s heart rippled with her amorous feelings.
