A man trying to seduce the police captain: Captain Lu, you're doomed!

What does this tell us?

This shows that he truly loves her to the core, which is why he loses his composure when she teases him.

As Chen Ye had said before, it wasn't like there weren't beautiful women who took the initiative to approach him and show their affection.

But he was always cold and aloof, showing no reaction whatsoever, like a stone that could never be warmed.

But now, he's so partial to her, so indulgent, so unable to control himself...

She really loved this unique contrast, this feeling of being cherished by him.

She stood there smiling happily for a while before humming a little tune and turning around to tidy herself up.

Not long after, the sound of water came from the bathroom.

Lu Chenyuan finished brushing his teeth and washing his face.

She walked out looking refreshed and went straight into the kitchen.

He tied on a simple apron, his tall figure standing in front of the stove, his movements skilled and efficient.

Turn on the fire, heat the pan, pour in the oil, and fry the eggs.

The golden eggs sizzled in the pan, and their aroma quickly filled the air.

He quickly chopped green peppers and shredded meat, stir-frying them until they released a rich aroma.

Boil water and add the thin noodles.

In just over ten minutes, two steaming bowls of green pepper and shredded pork noodles were ready.

The soup is clear and bright, and the noodles are chewy.

The shredded pork was tender, and the green peppers were refreshing.

Two perfectly round, golden-brown fried eggs rest on top, making it look incredibly appetizing.

Just as Lu Chenyuan brought the two bowls of noodles to the table, Su Wan had finished brushing her teeth and washing her face.

She hadn't had time to change her clothes yet and was still wearing a loose, soft nightgown.

Her long hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, and her face was bare.

She wasn't wearing makeup or dressed up, yet she exuded a clean and adorable charm.

She skipped and hopped to the dining table, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

He was half-lying on the table, his eyes sparkling as he stared at the noodles in front of him.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

She picked up her chopsticks and eagerly took a bite of noodles.

He blew on it, put it in his mouth, and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.

The two ate and joked softly, creating an atmosphere at the table that was sickeningly sweet.

After taking a few bites, Lu Chenyuan put down his chopsticks and looked at her.

He spoke calmly.

I told her everything about the phone call I made home last night.

"I called my parents last night."

"I told them about my breakup with Lin Man, and I also mentioned your existence."

"My dad asked me to take you back to Shanghai when I have time, so you can meet them."

Su Wan paused slightly as she picked up the noodles, a hint of nervousness flashing in her eyes, but mostly a sense of reassurance.

Lu Chenyuan continued making arrangements.

"I'll report back to the team tomorrow; you can go to the company as usual."

"Please take care of your current work and ask your supervisor for a week's leave."

"If it's difficult to ask for leave or to ask for it directly, I can just talk to Xu Da."

Su Wan immediately raised her head, a smug smile on her face.

Her chin was slightly raised, like a proud little peacock.

"No way!"

"Your wife is the top salesperson of the year, the most sought-after person in the company. He'll definitely agree to let me take leave, it's such a small thing."

She paused, her eyes brightening, and lowered her voice.

"Besides, I'm going to close another deal for the company today, aren't I?"

"Go through our internal channels, and you can get a discount of tens of thousands!"

After saying that, she laughed foolishly at herself.

Her eyes curved into two little crescent moons, making her look innocent and adorable.

Seeing her like this, Lu Chenyuan suddenly felt an extremely tender emotion welling up in his heart.

Through these past few days and nights together, he felt more and more clearly—

Su Wan possesses a shrewdness, worldliness, maturity, and defensiveness that she has to project at work every day...

It's fading away little by little.

In his presence, she was no longer the shrewd and eloquent top-performing real estate saleswoman.

Instead, she gradually transformed back into a carefree and innocent child.

Especially now.

Her face was clean and her hair was messy and uncombed.

She half-squatted on the chair, eating noodles in front of him without any regard for her image.

A little bit of oil accidentally splashed onto the corner of my mouth.

His nose was slightly wrinkled, and he looked very satisfied as he ate.

He appeared to be completely naive and unsuspecting.

It completely reveals the most authentic and tender side of her.

It was presented to him without reservation.

At that moment, he suddenly realized that although the two were only three years apart in age, they were still very close.

But subconsciously, he couldn't help but treat her like a child, cherishing, protecting, and holding her in his hands.

He reached out and pulled out a clean tissue.

Leaning slightly forward, he gently wiped the oil stains from the corners of her mouth.

His fingertips gently brushed against her soft cheek, his tone so tender it could melt hearts.

"Eat slowly, don't rush."

"Eating too fast will upset your stomach."

"There's still plenty of time, no rush."

He looked at her, his eyes serious and resolute.

"You can decide on the floor, orientation, and layout you want from home, without having to worry about the price."

"Once we arrive at the property, we don't need to hesitate; we can place a deposit in less than half an hour."

"It's okay, it's not a big deal for me."

He paused, then spoke each word with utmost clarity.

"Buying a house is not as important as you eating well."

"Um."

Su Wan nodded obediently, eating her noodles in small bites, but her eyes gradually reddened.

My nose tingled, and my heart felt a mix of sweetness and bitterness; my emotions surged up instantly.

The next second, the chopsticks in her hand fell onto the table with a clatter.

"I'm not eating anymore—"

She suddenly jumped off the chair and threw herself into Lu Chenyuan's arms.

She hugged his neck tightly with both hands and buried her face in the crook of his neck.

Unable to hold back any longer, she burst into tears.

Tears streamed down his face like a broken string of pearls, instantly soaking his shirt.

"Lu Chenyuan..."

She cried and sobbed, her voice broken and intermittent.

"You're so good to me... so incredibly good..."

"What if one day we break up... I mean, what if..."

"What am I going to do then...?"

Lu Chenyuan was stunned for a moment.

The tiny body in my arms was trembling slightly.

The crying was pitiful and uneasy, like a little animal afraid of being abandoned.

He never expected that, in such a sweet and peaceful moment, when everything was going in the best direction, she would still be worried about this.

She was still afraid, afraid that he would leave her.

I'm afraid this happiness is fleeting, afraid that one day I'll have nothing left.

A sharp pain suddenly welled up in my heart.

It turns out that beneath all her cheerfulness, pride, and carefree attitude lay a deep unease.

She cherishes him and this happiness so much that she is so anxious about losing him.

So be it.

Since she keeps overthinking and feels insecure.

Let's get it done in one go today.

Buying a house and getting the marriage certificate were done all at once.

After buying the house, put it in her name only.

Then go and get the marriage certificate.

In the most sincere and solemn way, tell her that he will not leave, not in this lifetime.

The subsequent proposal, wedding, ceremony, honeymoon...

He will have everything.

We will plan and prepare gradually.

Give her the best, the grandest, the wedding that everyone will envy.

So that she will never have to worry about anything again in her life.

Thinking of this, the idea that had been brewing in his mind could no longer be suppressed and instantly became extremely firm.

He tightened his arms and held the little girl, who was crying and trembling, tightly in his arms.

I gently patted her back and stroked her hair again and again.

He lowered his head and placed a tender kiss on the top of her head.

The voice was deep, steady, and resolute.

Like a reassuring pill, it settled on her heart.

"Don't cry."

"That day will never come."

Never.

"Today, let's go buy your favorite house and put it in your name."

"Then……"

He paused slightly, lowered his head, and whispered in her ear.

Speak clearly, word by word, in a voice that only the two of them can hear.

"Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get our marriage certificate."
