I married my best friend's dad in a whirlwind romance, only to find out he'd secretly love

A short while later, she came out with fruit and fed Qiao An'an a strawberry.

"Sweetie, try it, is it sweet?"

Qiao An'an naturally opened her mouth, took a bite, and the sweetness of the strawberry spread on her tongue. She nodded in satisfaction.

Then, she picked up a piece of fruit and held it to Lu Yanzhi's lips. "Try it too, it's delicious."

Lu Yanzhi opened his mouth and bit down, his lips touching her fingers.

Qiao An'an was so burned by the temperature of his mouth that she quickly withdrew her hand, and her face instantly turned red again.

Lu Yanzhi looked at her, his eyes filled with such doting affection that it could drown a person.

He picked up a tissue and wiped the fruit stains from the corner of her mouth.

Qiao An'an did not resist and let him do these things.

But Lu Yanzhi felt that Guai Guai had accepted him, and he was secretly pleased.

Qiao An'an realized with a start that she had just...

Seeing her like this, Lu Yanzhi was secretly pleased, but he didn't tease her.

He simply sat on the sofa, let her rest her head on his lap, and took a thin blanket to cover her stomach and legs.

"Don't get cold."

Qiao An'an inhaled the reassuring scent emanating from the man as they chatted.

She recounted amusing anecdotes from her childhood, and the man listened intently.

Ask a question occasionally.

Lu Yanzhi looked down at her little face, which was flushed and her eyes were full of smiles.

"Sweetie, let's go to the supermarket to buy some groceries later. What do you want to eat? I'll cook it for you."

Qiao An'an looked at his shoulder, frowned slightly, and asked with some concern, "You just had your stitches removed from your shoulder, is that okay? Won't it pull on them?"

Lu Yanzhi lowered his head and kissed her forehead, smiling indulgently.

"Don't worry, the doctor said the recovery is going very well and it won't cause any problems."

Qiao An'an couldn't hide the smile in her eyes and nodded, "Okay, let's go now."

Lu Yanzhi picked her up, carried her to the entrance, put her down to put on her shoes, and led her out of the apartment.

There was a supermarket in the residential area. Lu Yanzhi held her hand and walked very slowly.

Upon entering the supermarket, the air conditioning was quite strong. Lu Yanzhi draped his suit jacket over her shoulders, saying, "It's cold here."

Every thoughtful gesture warmed Qiao An'an's heart, drawing her closer to him.

Lu Yanzhi pushed the shopping cart with one hand and held Qiao An'an's hand with the other, his gaze lingering on her.

Qiao An'an let go of his hand and ran towards the vegetable section.

She picked up her favorite green vegetables, her eyes crinkling with joy.

Lu Yanzhi reached out and took the groceries from her hand, putting them in the car. "Want some lobster? We have some here."

As he spoke, he pointed to the seafood section in front of him.

Qiao An'an's eyes lit up, and she ran towards the seafood section, bending down to look at the lobster that was almost as thick as her arm.

Lu Yanzhi stepped forward, bent down behind her, and looked at her happy expression.

Qiao An'an pointed at the lobster, turned her head, and just happened to touch the man's lips, feeling the soft and slightly cool touch.

She was so startled that she took half a step back, her cheeks instantly turning red, and pointed at the lobster.

"I want to eat it!"

Looking at her blushing face, Lu Yanzhi still felt the soft touch on her lips. He smiled and walked over, picking up two lobsters and putting them into the shopping cart.

She then pushed the cart to the fruit section and picked up strawberries, peaches, and her favorite small cakes.

Then, I took her hand and walked towards the milk section, where I got her favorite banana yogurt.

Lu Yanzhi led her to the tasting area, picked up a cookie for tasting, and fed it to her.

"Try it."

Qiao An'an opened her mouth, and smelled the sweet aroma of the cookies.

As she ate the biscuit, she saw the man's smiling eyes, blushed, and nodded, "Delicious."

After saying that, she looked away.

Lu Yanzhi smiled, took two boxes of cookies, and led her forward by the hand.

As Qiao An'an watched him select items, she realized that he was completely different from the people she had heard of before.

He was so engrossed in watching that he didn't notice the man was looking at her.

"Sweetie, if you keep staring at me like that, I might not be able to hold back."

She didn't come to her senses until the man whispered in her ear. She quickly looked down at the floor, her heart pounding.

"You...you're talking nonsense!"

Lu Yanzhi smiled and patted her head. "There are your favorite steamed buns."

Qiao An'an's eyes lit up, and she reached out and took two bags.

She looked at the shopping cart, which was full of her favorite foods, and unconsciously took the man's arm, her voice soft.

"Ayan, how did you know these were all my favorite foods?"

They had only spent a few days together, but Lu Yanzhi's understanding of her made her feel that it wasn't something that had happened in just a few days.

Lu Yanzhi pulled her into his arms, his voice gentle, "I know everything about you."

Upon hearing this, Qiao An'an felt a ripple in her heart, as if they were the only people around her.

In the corner, two people were watching Qiao An'an and Lu Yanzhi with maternal smiles on their faces.

They were none other than Lu Yanzhi's lively mother and aunt.

Qin Nian and Qin Huiyu were hiding in a corner, watching the interaction between the two not far away, their mouths practically stretched to their ears.

Qin Nian was complaining to her sister that she was going to have tea with her future daughter-in-law, but then her son called and said that if he scared his future daughter-in-law away, he would go up the mountain and become a monk.

Helpless, Qin Nian had no choice but to text Qiao An'an, saying that she had to go on a business trip and they would meet again next time.

Since he couldn't meet his future daughter-in-law, he could only meet his own sister.

They never expected that they would run into Lu Yanzhi and Qiao An'an when they were just bored and went to the mall to browse around.

The two sisters exchanged a glance, and on the spot, they followed, hiding in a corner and watching the two.

Qin Huiyu looked at her sister and said, "Sister, you'll be holding your grandson soon."

"Did you hear that? An'an said those are all her favorite foods."

Qin Nian smiled, her eyebrows curving upwards. "This kid has finally fallen."

Qin Huiyu laughed, "Your son is too cold and too calm, while An'an is vibrant and bright. They are a match made in heaven."

Hearing this, Qin Nian laughed, "Look at that kid, his eyes never leave that person. When have I ever seen him speak to someone so gently?"

"It seems she's really interested." Qin Nianmei's eyes were full of satisfaction.

The more she looked at her future daughter-in-law, the more satisfied she became. Her son must have accumulated a lot of good fortune in his past lives to find such a wonderful girl.

Qin Huiyu tugged at her sleeve, "Sister, it looks like it'll be done soon. Shouldn't we start making arrangements in advance?"

For example, gifts need to be prepared for the first visit to the in-laws, such as betrothal gifts, wedding venue, etc. Shouldn't these things be prepared in advance?

Upon hearing this, Qin Nian immediately nodded, "You're right, we need to ask and prepare quickly. Come on, let's prepare together."

"Okay!" Qin Huiyu readily agreed.

The two sisters discussed etiquette while glancing at the two people not far away, their eyes filled with joy.
