The security in the district was tight, so An Nuo was not worried even if she took off her hat and mask.
She pressed the elevator button and felt the height rise. Then, she took out the key from her pocket.
It had been more than a month since she and Murong Qiao lived separately. During this period of time, An Nuo had gradually adapted to living alone.
However, when she stood at the door and looked at the quietly closed door next door, An Nuo couldn’t help but think of the awkward incident that day.
Fortunately, she was very busy, and Murong Chen was also always very busy. There were not many opportunities for the two of them to meet.
Moreover, according to An Nuo’s observation, Murong Chen only came here to live a few days every month. He should be here for business trips.
“Click.”
The key was inserted into the keyhole and turned gently.
An Nuo pushed open the door and turned to look at the closed door. Then, she turned around and returned home.
She changed into a pair of comfortable slippers and casually placed the bag she had brought back on the table in the living room. However, she suddenly couldn’t help but look at the date on her phone.
It happened to be the end of the month.
The few days at the end of the month and the beginning of the month were Murong Chen’s activity time here.
An Nuo looked down at her cell phone and pursed her lips. Her heart couldn’t help but move.
Speaking of which… she didn’t even thank the other party properly for helping her last time.
At the thought of this, An Nuo’s gaze shifted to the bag beside her. Pink didn’t seem to be suitable for boys… Then blue?
She did as she thought.
An Nuo took out the sticky note she often used and wrote something. Then, she took the blue dessert bag and went out again.
After considering the possibility of it hanging on the doorknob and falling off, An Nuo decided to put the bag beside the door.
She squatted down and was about to put it down when she heard the crisp sound of leather shoes walking behind her.
“What are you…?”
Murong Chen, who had just returned home, looked at An Nuo’s half-squatting figure hesitantly and couldn’t help but ask.
An Nuo was “caught red-handed” and hurriedly got up to turn around to look at him. “I, I—”
“I wanted to thank you for helping me last time!” She hurriedly explained.
After all, as soon as the owner returned home, he saw someone waiting at his door. She was squatting there sneakily. No matter how he thought about it, the scene was indescribably strange.
An Nuo didn’t want Murong Chen’s impression of her to worsen. “This is… it’s dessert.”
“You don’t have to be so polite.” Murong Chen was very calm from the beginning to the end.
However, when he recalled An Nuo squatting at the door just now, her entire body shrinking into a small ball, Murong Chen couldn’t help but think of the last time he saw her, she had long rabbit ears on her head.
When Murong Chen walked over, An Nuo subconsciously dodged to the side. In the end, she didn’t notice her feet. Fortunately, Murong Chen reacted in time and helped her up.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” An Nuo stood firm and said nervously twice.
Seeing her like this, Murong Xiao couldn’t help but laugh. “Am I very scary?”
Otherwise, why did he always feel that An Nuo was especially nervous every time they met?
“How can that be!” An Nuo retorted subconsciously.
When she said this, she didn’t look up to meet Murong Chen’s gaze. Her mind was running wild.
She couldn’t possibly say that she actually had different feelings for him.
At the thought that she rarely had the chance to meet Murong Chen, An Nuo always cherished it especially. However, it was precisely this cherishment that made her seem a little at a loss for words every time they met.
“Perhaps it’s your imagination,” An Nuo said vaguely.
Murong Chen didn’t expose her. Instead, he picked up the bag and took out the key to open the door.
“Do you want to come in and sit down?” he asked casually.
Since she was here, Murong Chen couldn’t just lock her up outside.
An Nuo’s mind heated up. “Alright!”
It was not easy for them to meet. She knew that she couldn’t bear to end the conversation and leave, so she agreed quickly.
However, the moment she finished speaking, she immediately regretted it.
However, the door had already been opened by Murong Chen. Looking at the simple grayish-white design inside, An Nuo was a little tempted.
Then… I’ll just go in and sit for a while?
This was an opportunity to visit Murong Chen’s house, she thought.
Although she had been to the Murong Residence before, the significance of it was especially different from the private residence at this moment.
Murong Chen didn’t sense the conflict in An Nuo’s heart. After entering, he first went to get her a pair of slippers.
“I’m sorry, there usually aren’t any guests here. These slippers should be new. I hope you won’t mind,” he explained.
An Nuo hurriedly shook her head. “How can that be?”
She hurriedly changed her shoes, but when her feet reached in, she felt the wideness of the slippers.
These were Murong Chen’s shoes.
After realizing this in the next second, An Nuo immediately felt her face heat up again.
She was like a child who had stolen an adult’s clothes. Her feet only took up a portion of the slippers, and she walked slowly, making An Nuo feel a little unnatural.
This was also the first time Murong Chen’s private residence had welcomed a guest.
Usually, the butler, Uncle Yang, was in charge of entertaining the guests at the Murong Residence. Today, there was no Uncle Yang, so Murong Chen took the initiative to go to the kitchen to pour a glass of water for An Nuo.
“Unfortunately, I’m only using this place to rest. I’m afraid I won’t be able to entertain you well.” His joking tone eased the atmosphere a lot. “Next time you come, I’ll definitely prepare some delicious food.”
“The water is quite good too.” An Nuo indicated that she was fine.
However, her mind followed Murong Chen’s words and subconsciously drifted to the other side.
Next time? Did that mean that he would welcome her next visit?
Thoughts swirled in An Nuo’s heart. She sat on the sofa in the living room and stared at the cup of water in her hand. She couldn’t help but fall into a daze, but her heart was filled with anticipation because of her thoughts.
Murong Chen then turned on the television, thinking that it would make the atmosphere less awkward.
However, as soon as the television was turned on, the first thing that greeted their eyes was the product advertisement endorsed by An Nuo and the advertising slogan she was chanting.
Looking at the dazzling An Nuo on the television screen and the professional camera angle, Murong Chen recalled the pajamas and bunny ears he had seen. He couldn’t help but smile slightly.
An Nuo didn’t expect that the moment the television was turned on, it would be her advertisement. She died on the spot.
However, the remote control was in Murong Chen’s hand, so it was not appropriate for her to snatch it over and change the channel.
Fortunately, Murong Chen was very considerate and changed the channel to a variety show. An Nuo was rather relieved. Then, his gaze wandered around the other party’s body and he felt that An Nuo was very different from the show.
“Why did you want to move here?” Murong Chen casually picked a topic.
Not to mention anything else, he couldn’t be too bad at chatting, especially since An Nuo’s thoughts were easy to read.
An Nuo heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m getting busier and busier at work, and I’ve already graduated. It’s not good for me to live with Qiao all the time.”
“I remember that Qiaoqiao went overseas?” At the mention of his Little Sister, Murong Chen had a lot to say.
An Nuo nodded. “Huo Yichen has business to discuss there, and Qiao also wants to go on a trip to relax.”
When he heard that she was going with Huo Yichen, Murong Chen was not worried. He believed that Huo Yichen would protect her well.
“Then Qiaoqiao doesn’t live with Huo Yichen?” he asked.
When he saw An Nuo living here, Murong Chen had always wanted to ask this question. Unfortunately, he had never found a suitable opportunity..
