Chapter 212
As the skies darkened, the mansion situated halfway up the mountain grew increasingly more silent with only a clear gentle female voice and an elegant aristocratic male voice filling the air .
This was the first time Lu Jinnian had held such a long conversation . By the time he came back to his senses, he realized that it was already late into the night .
Even though Lu Jinnian wanted to continue this conversation forever, he didn’t want to disrupt her rest . “It’s getting late, go shower and rest . “
Initially, Qiao Anhao had no intention of staying, hence she didn’t bring anything . When Lu Jinnian told her to shower, she frowned, worrying about what to wear afterwards .
Lu Jinnian seemed to have seen through her thoughts . He turned to his changing room and brought over a t-shirt .
After she entered the bathroom, he re-opened his laptop and immersed himself in the last bit of work before going downstairs .
Shortly after, Lu Jinnian came back up with a cup of hot milk . When he returned, Qiao Anhao was already done . She sat in front of the vanity table, drying her hair .
His t-shirt slouched on her small, slender body, her dark hair resting lightly down her back, her tiny face clear of makeup . She appeared a few years younger, exactly how he remembered her from back in high school .
In that instant, he remembered the day many years ago when they had shared a room . His eyes watered slightly as he stood at the door, quietly observing her . After she had dried her hair, he straightened and walked towards her to pass her the milk . “You’ll sleep better with it . “
“Thank you . ” Qiao Anhao reached over to take the cup . After taking a sip, she seemed to be reminded of something . “Do you have extra blankets? You have an injury on your back , so my bad sleeping habits might hurt you . . or maybe I can sleep on the sofa . “

Every time Lu Jinnian and Qiao Anhao slept together, it was for a transaction .
To him, it was normal to feel sexual desire for the girl he was in love with, but he didn’t want it to be a transaction .
But once their transaction was over, he didn’t even have a reason to touch her .
The mood tonight was too perfect, he wasn’t willing to let anything taint it . Hence, the moment he heard her, he nodded lightly, entering the bathroom .
Due to his injury, Lu Jinnian wasn’t able to shower . He took a simple wash and entered the changing room to change into his pajamas . Before he left, he found an extra blanket, taking it to the sofa .
This scene was unusually familiar, it was the same as the night many years ago in Hangzhou .
Qiao Anhao held the cup of milk, trembling slightly . She placed the cup on the table and walked towards the sofa to look at Lu Jinnian . “Goodnight . “
“Take the bed,” Lu Jinnian commanded, pointing towards it .
“But you’re injured . . . ” Qiao Anhao replied, hurriedly lying down on the sofa .
Lu Jinnian frowned slightly . He bent down, scooped her up, and carried her to the bed .
