The warden was perplexed, was Lu Yan talking to him?
He had one hand in his pocket and stood tall. His black singlet was extremely fitting and his eight pack was obvious, he was so sexy.
Lu Yan narrowed his eyes while glancing at the warden, he spoke like he was of higher authority.
The warden was annoyed inside, Lu Yan was behaving in such an unruly manner. Their identities seemed to have switched, Lu Yan behaved as though he was the warden though he should have been in rehabilitation for his crimes.
“You, you…” The warden stammered once he tried to speak.
Lu Yan furrowed his brows and started to lose his patience in a matter of seconds. “You’re stammering?”
“…”
The warden had to admit that he was indeed too cowardly at that point of time. Lu Yan was brawny and exuded a magnificent aura, he just couldn’t bring himself to toughen up in front of Lu Yan. “I… I don’t have a wife yet.”
“…”
Lu Yan’s face contorted, he rolled his eyes at the warden. The man just wasted his time.
However, he thought to himself, women were indeed troublesome.
Lu Yan was skilled in flirting with women but he really wasn’t well versed in romance. He had zero experience in love.
He made her upset today, she even cried and ran away. He was insecure inside too. He still had a year remaining in jail for the sentence he had to serve. He was afraid that she wouldn’t wait for him.
Lu Yan lifted one leg and kicked the warden’s desk. “An’an, I fucking love you!”
He sounded like an overbearing CEO.
But it still felt kinda weird. Lu Yan took his hand out from his pocket and smiled gently. “An’an, I love you.”
He sounded gentle and romantic.
But he still felt somewhat out of place.
Lu Yan gave it some thought, he pretended to go down on one knee. “An’an, please hand yourself to me, I promise to dote on you well, to cherish you and love you.”
F*ck, he felt even more weird saying that!
Lu Yan was getting even more frustrated.
But he suddenly glanced over, noticing that the warden was still beside him. The warden gaped at him performing, his mouth was open and wide enough to get a whole egg inside.
F*ck!
Lu Yan cursed inside, he was so embarrassed he wanted to kill someone!
He picked up the phone, dialing a number he had committed to memory.
…
In the VIP ward in the hospital.
It was late at night, there weren’t any sounds in the ward. The lights weren’t switched on and a petite figure curled up in bed. An’an lay on her side and snuggled up under the blankets. She was looking at the sky outside.
From this position, she could gaze at all the stars in the sky. The stars were sparkling and when she just lifted her head to watch them, every second passed so slowly.
She had spent the past four months doing the same thing every night.
But her ringtone started to sound, she had an incoming phone call.
Her cell phone was placed on the nightstand and the screen lit up, the caller ID showed that the call was coming from XX jail.
Lu Yan.
Lu Yan was phoning her.
She reached over to get her cell phone, once she saw the caller ID, tears welled up in her eyes.
She was not only angry at him, she hated him for what happened earlier. Putting the cell phone underneath her pillow, she refused to pick up the call.
…
In the jail.
Lu Yan was expressionless when he heard the automated message play—-‘Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable. Please try again later.’
His brown eyes turned dangerous, how dare this little thing not pick up his call?
He continued calling her.
She still wasn’t picking up.
He continued without any intention to give up.
The warden took note of the time, half an hour had passed and Lu Yan was still standing there, making a call. He had probably made hundreds of calls already.
“Lu Yan, time’s up. Other people are still in line to make a call,” the warden reminded him.
But the automated message was different this time round—-‘Sorry, the number you’ve dialed is switched off.’
He had called her so many times, her cell phone had already run out of battery.
Lu Yan was fuming with rage. She never used to treat him like that, she had gotten more daring recently.
Bam! He threw down the phone and returned to his jail cell.
…
Lu Yan lay on his bed and his cellmate realized something was wrong. He instantly piped up, “Bro, that lady didn’t pick up your phone call, am I right? I was correct, you’ve scared her away. You need to have commitment and put in the effort in a relationship. Who knows, she might be going on a date with another man right now, watching movies, shopping for new clothes…”
Lu Yan reached his hand out and he felt a book on his bed. He picked it up, throwing it in his cellmate’s face. “Can you just f*cking shut up?”
Cellmate, “…”
Once he finally had some silence to himself, Lu Yan’s mind was filled with An’an’s beautiful face. She wasn’t picking up his call.
Did she no longer have any feelings for him?
Did she no longer want to be with him?
She never used to bear to treat him in such a way.
Lu Yan sat up, shouting loudly, “Warden, open the door. I want to make a call.”
Lu Yan phoned someone. “Hello, find a reason to get me out of this place. I miss my woman so much and I can’t do anything else…”
…
The next morning, in the hospital.
Tang Mo’er had brought some porridge that she cooked and An’an sat up to have some of the porridge.
She didn’t have much of an appetite and couldn’t continue eating after only having a few spoons.
Ding, she received a text message.
Her eyelashes moved, she picked up her cell phone and clicked on the text.
—-Come over to the Villa.
An’an’s heart palpitated once she read the text.
She read the text a few times over before she confirmed that Lu Yan had asked her to meet him at the villa.
Why did he even ask her to go to the villa?
An’an lifted her eyes and looked at Tang Mo’er. “Little sister-in-law, I want to go outside for awhile, can you please help me hide it from my brother?”
Gu Mohan had restricted her freedom and if he were to learn that she’d went out, he would be furious.
“An’an, where are you going?”
“I’m going to… meet Lu Yan.”
…
An’an hailed a cab and arrived in front of Lu Yan’s villa. The maid opened the doors. “Elder Miss, you’re finally back.”
“Mm”, An’an acknowledge her greeting as her eyes scanned around the villa, “Is Master Yan back yet?”
“No.”
“Oh, I want to have a bath, help me prepare a rose petal bath.”
The maids quickly prepared the rose petal bath and An’an spent an entire water soaking herself in it. She wiped away the water droplets on her skin with a clean towel and put on an off-white colored negligee.
As she stood in front of the mirror, she looked carefully at her own beautiful face. Since she had just taken a bath, her face flushed red. She was young and her skin was radiant and supple. With those large, doe-like eyes of her, any man would fall for her.
She suddenly heard a maid’s voice from outside. “Master Yan, you’re back?”
Lu Yan’s back?
Lu Yan’s back!
She still wasn’t sure whether he had sent that text, since he was still supposed to serving his jail sentence but now she was. He had really come back.
An’an opened the room door, lowering her eyes, and she spotted an imposing figure by the villa’s entrance.
He was so tall, just like a statue and the faint yellow lights seemed to glow on his broad shoulders. He was so suave.
