Chapter 493 - 508: Running Away from a Wedding?
"Since you’re my aunt’s daughter, I should call you sister. Can you let me stay with you temporarily? Once I get past the wedding date, I’ll take you to see my grandmother and father."Wen Yichen looked at Han Xi seriously, exuding an aloof aura.
Everything happened so suddenly, Han Xi hadn’t recovered yet, her gaze fixed on the photo on the phone screen.
Lu Jinghan leaned over the coffee table, took out a cigarette, and lit it at an angle, scrutinizing Wen Yichen with his gaze: "Are you from here?"
"Yes, our family is in the tea business."
"Escaping from the wedding?"
Lu Jinghan’s fingers, distinct in their bones, brought the cigarette to his lips, took a puff, and released white smoke from the corner of his mouth.
Wen Yichen’s deep black eyes looked at Lu Jinghan, and instead of answering, he asked, "What are you to my sister, boyfriend or husband?"
"Does it make a difference?"
Wen Yichen said nothing else, quietly sitting on the sofa, without any extra expression.
Han Xi raised her head to look at Wen Yichen, noticing upon closer inspection that his features indeed had some resemblance to Wen Qin’s: "Can you take me to meet your family now?"
"I can’t go home now, but by the end of the month, I’ll definitely take you back. Don’t worry."
Although Han Xi now really wanted to see this young man’s family, to understand what was going on, and why her mother had never contacted her family, since the young man said he couldn’t return now, Han Xi didn’t want to force it.
"Alright then, you can stay with us for now, but we’re heading back to An City in a few days."
"I can go with you."
Han Xi turned and looked at Lu Jinghan. Lu Jinghan smiled slightly and nodded, only then did Han Xi agree with Wen Yichen.
Lu Jinghan leaned over and extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray: "We’re going down for breakfast now, do you want to join?"
"No, thank you."
Wen Yichen sat quietly on the sofa, from start to finish, maintaining a fresh and handsome but silent demeanor.
Lu Jinghan said nothing more, taking Han Xi’s hand and getting up from the sofa: "Let’s go have breakfast first."
Han Xi nodded, turning to look at Wen Yichen: "I’ll bring breakfast up for you later."
"Thank you."
Outside the room, Han Xi leaned her head on Lu Jinghan’s shoulder, confusedly asked: "Do you think he’s really my cousin?"
Han Xi still felt an unreal, cloud-like sensation.
"Since he has photos and can say Mom’s name, there shouldn’t be any issues. I’ll have people investigate further later."
While talking, they’ve already gone downstairs, Aisha had prepared breakfast: "Morning, how was your sleep last night?"
Lu Jinghan helped Han Xi pull out a chair at the dining table, smiling slightly, he replied: "I slept well."
"Where are you planning to go later?" Aisha asked while serving breakfast, then sat down across from them.
Han Xi picked up the milk on the table and took a sip: "We want to go tea picking later. I saw a bicycle in the yard, can we borrow it?"
"Of course, feel free to use it."
"Thank you, Aisha."
After breakfast, Han Xi took a sandwich and milk upstairs. In the room, Wen Yichen still sat quietly on the sofa, only now with headphones added.
Han Xi placed breakfast on the coffee table: "Eat first, we’re going out for a walk. You can call me if you need anything."
