The bespectacled man looked at the disappearing figure outside the door and adjusted his gla.s.ses. “From the looks of it just now, they look like a family of three. However, I feel that Miss Jiang and Miss Chen look a little similar.”

Zhang Lin clapped his hands and was enlightened. “I almost forgot about Miss Chen! Yes, yes, yes, she does look a little like her! So… is Fourth Master Zou playing stunt double? Because he can’t be with his one and only, he can only silently find a lookalike to replace her.”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk! I didn’t expect this. Even a formidable person can’t escape the charm of beauty.”

The bespectacled man didn’t agree with the boss’s guess, but that was just his intuition. He just smiled and didn’t express his opinion to the boss.

Zou Yi drove while Zou Er sat in the front pa.s.senger seat. When traveling in Jingdu City, Zou Bai had always traveled light and simple.

Zou Bai was worried that if he let Jiang Yi into the safety seat, he would wake up and cry because of the discomfort of being tied up, so he simply maintained his original position and hugged him.

Jiang An and Zou Bai tacitly remained silent in the car.

It was almost 10:30 p.m. when they got home. Jiang An didn’t go to the mansion to look for her parents. Instead, she brought Zou Bai back to Shaohua Tower.

Zou Bai gently placed Jiang Yi on the small bed. However, the moment he came into contact with the bed, Jiang Yi seemed to have sensed it. His two small eyebrows knitted together again. He opened his eyes slightly and pouted.

Jiang An quickly went forward and gently placed her hand on Jiang Yi’s body, patting him rhythmically again and again.

Zou Bai quickly turned off the bedside lamp and stood in front of Jiang Yi to block his vision. Only the dim yellow light from the corridor at the door reflected into the room.

Jiang Yi slowly closed his eyes. Jiang An patted him for another ten minutes. After confirming that Jiang Yi was asleep, she stood up and pulled Zou Bai away.

Seeing Aunt Sang waiting at the door, Jiang An pointed at the room and instructed in a low voice, “Call me if there’s anything.”

Aunt Sang nodded. “I understand.”

Aunt Sang turned around and went into the room, closing the door behind her.

Jiang An turned to look at Zou Bai. There was a gentle light in her eyes as she said, “This is how it is to take care of a child. Although it’s troublesome, I feel very blessed.”

Zou Bai smiled faintly and said, “That’s why I feel even more regretful about missing out on them growing up. Can I come sit in your room?”

This change of topic caught Jiang An off guard. She was stunned for a moment. Before she could answer, she saw Zou Bai walking straight to her room and quickly followed him.

Zou Bai pushed open the bedroom door and turned on the switch beside the door. The crystal ceiling emitted a soft yellow light, making the pink room look even more dreamy.

This was the first time this room had welcomed a stranger since Jiang An moved in.

Zou Bai didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. He walked into the room and looked around the room. Then, he sat down on the long sofa. If it weren’t for the fact that he didn’t match the girliness of the room, people who didn’t know would think that this was his room.

Jiang An picked up the kettle on the coffee table and poured a gla.s.s of water. She placed it in front of Zou Bai. “I won’t ask you if you want coffee or tea at this time. It’s best to drink plain water.”

Zou Bai picked up a gla.s.s of water and took a sip. Then, he glanced at Jiang An, who was still standing at the side, and teased, “Why aren’t you sitting down quickly? Are you standing there waiting to be my maid?”

Jiang An also replied jokingly, “I just saw that you were too comfortable and thought that I was the guest.”

Zou Bai chuckled and placed the cup back on the coffee table. Then, he leaned back and crossed his legs. He looked straight at Jiang An and asked, “Jiang An, are we dating now?”

These words completely stunned Jiang An. This was the question she wanted to avoid.

Jiang An silently poured herself a gla.s.s of water and took the opportunity to stall for time while drinking water.

Jiang An felt that as long as she met Zou Bai, she would easily be led by his train of thought. She did not answer directly and asked, “What do you think?”

Zou Bai put away the teasing expression on his face. He crossed his legs and sat up straight. He looked at Jiang An and said seriously, “I think we’re in a relations.h.i.+p now.”

Jiang An held the gla.s.s of water and raised her eyes slightly. When she saw the serious expression on Zou Bai’s face, she suddenly felt a little nervous. She lowered her eyes and stared at the water in the gla.s.s. She muttered softly, “When did I agree? I don’t even know.”

When Zou Bai clearly heard Jiang An’s words, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. “Miss Jiang, I like you. Are you willing to be my girlfriend?”

This was the first time Jiang An had been confessed to. Although she was good-looking, for some reason, she was like an insulator of the opposite s.e.x. She had never received a confession letter, let alone been asked like this..
