Chapter 46: Voice

"Brother Lin, these butterflies smell so good, are they also food?"

Esta asked in disbelief as she looked at the group of fragrant butterflies flying in the living room.

"Of course, these are potato chip butterflies. They are both ingredients and food. They look alive, but they are actually cooked."

Lin Lanjian smiled and explained softly, then he arranged the food, filmed the butterflies from a distance and put them on the plate.

"Is it so magical? These grasses that look a bit like noodles can't really be noodles? Why are there branches at the roots of these chicken legs? Are they growing on trees? And..."

The pink-haired girl smelled the strong and tempting aroma, her throat rolled a few times, and she looked at the pile of food on the table, curiously asking one question after another.

"Okay, are you a curious baby? Go wash your hands. The food will be cold after I finish explaining to you." Lin Lanjian interrupted her helplessly and looked at her with amusement.

"Oh, I'll go right away."

Esta also reacted, nodded a little embarrassedly, and went to the bathroom to wash her hands.

"Husband, why did you prepare so much?"

At this time, a bright white light floated out from the sword on Lin Lanjian's waist and transformed into a pretty and gentle fox-eared girl. She stared at the pile of delicacies on the table and asked softly.

"You greedy fox, how can you not come out to look for food at this time? Of course, I have prepared yours too."

Lin Lanjian rubbed her head, his tone somewhat doting.

"Hehe~ My husband is still the best." Bai Heng smiled playfully.

She actually just wanted to stay quietly in her space, watching her man's words and deeds, without disturbing him from hunting for beauties and finding new sisters for herself. But the food was so tempting that she couldn't help but float out.

Lin Lanjian's thoughtfulness and understanding also made Bai Heng feel sweet and happy.

Topa on the side just watched with a quiet smile, without any envy on her face. After all, her man treated them all equally, and she had experienced such tenderness and pampering countless times.

"Brother Lin, this, this is..."

When Ester came back from washing her hands, she saw a strange fox-eared girl in the living room. She was pretty and beautiful, and the man's intimate behavior towards her made Ester guess something. She pursed her lips and asked.

"Her name is Bai Heng. As you can see, she is a fox person. She is also my sword spirit and my love."

Lin Lanjian did not hide anything and explained to her in a gentle voice.

"Oh, I see." Esta nodded in understanding, but there was some envy in her eyes. She clearly saw the tenderness that unconsciously appeared in his dark eyes when he introduced the girl.

"I know your name is Ester. You can call me Bai Heng or Ah Heng."

Bai Heng said softly, looking at the pink-haired girl for a few times, and smiled again, "If you like, you can also call me Sister Heng."

Let me call you sister? Could it be...

Hearing this, Ester was stunned for a moment, then when she saw the satisfaction and encouragement flashing across Bai Heng's eyes, her light blue eyes brightened.

She decisively suppressed the slight hesitation in her heart, and immediately opened her mouth and shouted with a smile:

"Sister Heng!"

"Mm, that voice is so sweet~"

Bai Heng nodded his head slightly, praised him and then agreed.

Estelle's face was filled with joy, and she glanced at the handsome man not far away, but she saw that he had a calm expression and did not react to the conversation between the two women. She didn't know whether he was tacitly agreeing or tacitly opposing.

Her smile suddenly faded a lot.

"Okay, let's eat first."

Lin Lanjian shook his head slightly, then said something and took the lead in sitting down and eating the delicious food on the table.

Topa and Bai Heng nodded. The living room was already filled with tempting aromas. Hearing their men's words, they couldn't resist the gluttony in their stomachs and sat down to enjoy the food.

Esta sat down absentmindedly. She was wondering whether the man's shaking of his head just now was simply asking them to stop talking and eat, or was a refusal to her to call Bai Heng "sister".

If it was the latter, Esta didn't know what to do. After all, although Topa had told her a lot about Lin Lanjian's preferences, this would only be effective if she was not rejected at the beginning.

But soon her appetite was aroused by the endless aroma. She ate the strange and delicious food in front of her and temporarily forgot her worries.

The dinner passed quickly without words.

Bai Heng and Topa only ate until they were about 70% full because they knew they had to save some food for a late-night snack after returning to their room.

If you eat too much now, you will easily feel full when you have a midnight snack. In fact, bloating is not a big deal, but you should be afraid of not eating enough.

However, it was the first time for Esda to taste this delicacy. She savored it with ecstasy, and by the time she was done, her originally flat belly was bulging.

"Brother Lin, I'm sorry, I seem to have eaten too much, and I'm a little full, I can't even help wash the dishes."

Esta lay back on the soft sofa, touched her pregnant belly, endured the discomfort, and said somewhat embarrassedly to the handsome man who was sitting not far away from her and watching TV.

"Look, can I sit down and digest it, and then go back later?"

Finally, she hesitated for a moment and asked again with a somewhat requesting tone.

Seeing Topa and Bai Heng go to the bathroom together after cleaning up, Lin Lanjian looked down and couldn't help but smile when he heard the girl's words:

"It's okay. We don't need so many people to wash the dishes. But next time, Estella, don't be so greedy. It will probably take you a long time to digest what you have now. Why don't you stay here for one night? There is a bedroom."

"Yeah, not next time."

Does that mean I can come back to eat for free? Esther, realizing this, nodded in delight.

But then he was stunned again. There was only one bedroom left for him? Wouldn't he have to stay with Topa and Bai Heng at night...

Thinking of this, the girl glanced at the two women bathing in the bathroom, blushed, and spoke in a low voice: "Brother Lin, would it be too much of a bother for me to stay?"

"No, Ah Heng and Nana won't object. You're just staying for one night, it's no big deal to disturb them." Lin Lanjian looked at the program on TV and shook his head indifferently.

"Well, I'll just bother you for one night."

Esta also knew that it was best for her to stay given her current situation, so she nodded.

Then the two of them fell silent. The atmosphere was a little frozen, with only the sound of the TV audible from time to time.

Lin Lanjian was naturally looking at the screen, killing time out of boredom. After the two women came out, he went back to his room to practice the Yin-Yang Interaction Art. He had not forgotten what he had said to Bai Heng before about picking chrysanthemums.

He was already looking forward to it.

Esta didn't know what to say. If Topa hadn't talked to her about Lin Lanjian's preferences and deeds, she wouldn't have known much about the man next to her.

But the girl knew that her heart had already fallen after seeing his handsomeness and gentleness, powerful strength, extraordinary appearance, and unique food...

This man is mysterious and charming, with a deadly and infinite charm like poison that makes people unable to extricate themselves.

Topa told her that Lin Lanjian prefers girls who take the initiative and put aside their reserve in order to seize opportunities.

Thinking of this, Esta bit her teeth lightly, looked at Lin Lanjian slowly but firmly, and called out softly:

"Brother Lin."

"Well, tell me something."

He didn't look back either.

"In fact, the letter my father sent me... kept telling me about our past. I regret it. I... like you, Brother Lin. I want to agree to it."

The girl sat up with some difficulty, staring at the man's handsome and flawless profile, as if whispering what was in her heart at the moment.

Chapter 47 Rejection?

Hearing this, Lin Lanjian paused the TV and turned to look at her.

"It's all in the past. It was just a verbal agreement, and there weren't many restrictions or constraints. When the news of your rejection reached me, it was invalidated. There's no point in saying yes or no at this moment."

After staring at the girl calmly for a moment, he shook his head slightly and whispered his answer slowly.

It doesn't make sense... Is this a rejection?

"Brother Lin..."

Seeing this, Ester was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly turned pale, and she called out softly with dry lips, but she felt uncomfortable and depressed in her heart, and didn't know what to say.

My stomach was already bloated from overeating, and it became even more uncomfortable due to the emotional ups and downs, and I began to feel abdominal pain.

She covered her stomach with her small hands, the physical and psychological pain gathered in one place, her eyes were filled with bitterness, and misty fog gradually condensed in her eye sockets.

Hey~

Lin Lanjian sighed softly. He just wanted the girl to say goodbye to the past and focus on the present, but he didn't expect that she directly misunderstood his meaning.

He couldn't bear to see the person he cared about cry, so he quickly moved over and gently held Ester in his arms, placing his big hands on her slightly swollen belly, and lending his strength to relieve her discomfort.

Suddenly, she found herself in a broad and warm embrace. She felt the softness and comfort from the big hand on her belly. Her abdomen also slowly became smaller and the discomfort in her body was gone.

"Better now, right? What I actually want to say is that the past is the past, and there is no point in bringing it up now. Since you like me, let's start from now on, understand?"

Lin Lanjian asked softly, took his hand away while explaining, and said gently, "Don't cry, I can't stand this, otherwise I will ignore you."

When the warm hand left, Esta felt a little disappointed, but after hearing the words and understanding the meaning, she immediately looked at him steadily, and her pretty face became as bright as the ever-changing weather.

The heart that had fallen into the cold ice cave seemed to be pulled up in an instant, and the warm and soft sunlight also shone down.

"Yeah, I'm not crying, I'm not, you saw it wrong~"

The girl nodded repeatedly, and the mist in her eyes dissipated instantly, replaced by a playful smile in her bright eyes.

"Okay, since you're not feeling uncomfortable, get up. I'll watch TV for a while and then go to rest when they come out."

Lin Lanjian couldn't help but smile at the cute and pretty girl in his arms. He subconsciously touched her head and then spoke in a gentle voice.

Esta was enjoying the man's intimate touch with a slightly blushing face, but his sudden stop and the words he said made her shake her head reluctantly. She bit her pink lips, mustered up the courage to stretch out her soft hands and hug Lin Lanjian's waist.

"Can you not get up? Brother Lin, can you just hold me like this and watch?"

The girl pouted and looked at him as he asked softly, her eyes flickering with anticipation. She rolled her eyes and continued, "I'm actually... still feeling a little uncomfortable. You have to let me lean on you and rest for a while."

The excuse that Esta made up on the spur of the moment was obviously easily exposed in Lin Lanjian's eyes, but how could he bear to refuse? After all, she was almost moved to tears just now.

"Okay, I'll listen to you and won't get up."

Lin Lanjian chuckled and nodded, then reached out to take the remote control and unpaused the screen.

Seeing that her lover agreed, a look of joy appeared on Ester's pretty face. She hugged him contentedly, resting her head on that warm chest, smelling the pleasant scent of the man.

After a while, she raised her head and saw Lin Lanjian watching TV quietly without talking to her. She couldn't help feeling a little depressed. She puffed her cheeks and leaned against his arms from time to time, not caring about her messy pink hair.

"What's wrong? I didn't realize you were a kitten. You still need your master to pet you, moving around all the time."

Lin Lanjian lowered his head, looking at the girl in his arms with helplessness and amusement, looking like a pet begging for its owner's attention.

When Esta heard the man's words, two bright red clouds appeared on her cheeks.

The handsome face was so close to her that the girl felt her heart beating wildly and couldn't stop it. She felt inexplicably happy and just stared at him.

Then he whispered and called out tentatively:

"Lin...Brother Lin?"

"Well, I'm here, what's wrong?"

Hearing the changing intimate name and seeing Ester's beautiful appearance, Lin Lanjianmo raised his eyebrows slightly, then smiled softly and spoke.

Seeing that he did not reject this title, but looked at her with a smile on his face, Esta was certain in her heart, but still held the man's jade hand tightly, and asked gently and carefully but with serious eyes:

"You asked me to start from now on, so... you like me too, right?"

Hearing this, Lin Lanjian was stunned for a moment, then he touched the girl's head with a smile and moved closer to touch his forehead with hers.

"Of course I like it~ But actually when your father made his request, I refused. But when he mentioned his daughter's name, he took out a photo of a pretty and beautiful girl. I was moved at first sight and had to agree."

He smiled and nodded, slowly talking about the past, and then blinked at her, "But someone refused. Although it's not surprising, I'm a little depressed. I've been waiting until now."

The man exhaled a somewhat hot breath as he spoke, and Ester's face became redder. When she heard the affirmative answer, joy in her heart flowed like a stream.

But after hearing the following words, she felt a little embarrassed again: "I, I didn't know that Brother Lin would make me... like him so much~ If I had known that I would have been less resistant at the time, I should have tried to make contact with you first."

"It's not too late now." Lin Lanjian stood up again and gently scratched the girl's delicate and jade-like nose.

"Ok!"

Esta nodded vigorously, then leaned into the man's warm arms again, a sweet smile on her pretty face.

"Brother Lin, can you hug me too?"

The pink-haired girl curled up in Lin Lanjian's arms, watching TV with him quietly, but she always felt that something was missing. After a moment, she remembered the main point, raised her head and spoke in a soft voice, while pulling the man's two big hands and placing them on her waist.

"Okay, it's up to you."
