Chapter 835 - I’m Willing to Live 20 Years Less

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The man stood on one leg in front of the bathroom counter, his short hair covered his forehead while the water droplets dripped down his perfectly tanned skin. It continued to travel down the area inside of the towel and his muscular build was attractive, one could suffer from a nose bleed just looking at him.

An’an could feel her body temperature getting warmer. F*ck, this man was too good at seducing people.

Now that he was lowering his head while washing his underwear, scrubbing it in the soapy water while the water splashed everywhere, he was exuding a wild charm.

It was just three years ago. Back then, everyone had respect for this man and he had everyone serving him, but three years later, his entire lifestyle changed. He even had to wash his own underwear.

Lu Yan was aware that she was standing behind him while watching him. He had a poker face on and didn’t lift his head, he just continued to wash his own underwear clean.

Once he turned around, he looked at her and asked, “Where do I hang this?”

He showed her the wet underwear in his hands.

An’an slumped against the door and tucked her hair behind her ears, revealing her delicate and beautiful looks. “Are you sure about hanging a man’s underwear in an unmarried lady’s room? What would other people think once they see your underwear in my room?”

Lu Yan smirked. “So you want me to go outside without wearing any underwear?”

“...”

Go outside without wearing any underwear?

An’an didn’t dare imagine the scene, it was too inappropriate!

She stretched out her hand, grabbing the wet underwear from Lu Yan and threw it in the bin.

“Gu An’an!”

Lu Yan grasped her wrist forcefully, wanting to stop her from doing that but it was all too late. She had already thrown his underwear into the bin.

Damn it!

Lu Yan glared at her angrily, he was at the brink of hitting her, she was itching for a beating! He threw her wrist, turning around to leave.

Hiss.

An’an hissed.

Lu Yan paused, he quickly turned back to look. “What’s wrong, did I hurt you?”

He hadn’t used any force at all.

An’an knitted her brows, pretending like she was in a lot of pain. Her eyes turned watery while she pouted her red lips. “You pushed me?”

“...”

He didn’t push her!

He couldn’t even bear to break even one strand of her hair throughout their years spent together as father-daughter.

But she behaved like she was so aggrieved, even pouting her red lips at him.

Lu Yan knew for a fact that he was getting older, he acknowledged the stuff that Huo Yanmei said about him. If he had settled down and had a child when he was younger, his daughter would probably be of similar age as An’an.

However, she had to consider the fact that men at his age would be even better at doting on people.

He looked at her with a sharp gaze, even if he really were to have a daughter, his daughter would probably never hold a candle to An’an’s ways.

“Stop pretending, I didn’t push you!”

An’an looked at the man’s facial features. He had the kind of appearance that one wouldn’t easily get sick of, his facial features were masculine, neither her elder brother Gu Mohan nor Fu Qinglun could compare to him.

Though he used to bully women before, he couldn’t take it when she just bullied him a little. He was behaving like a male chauvinist yet was a little dumb at the same time.

“My leg hurts, come over and piggyback me.” An’an stretched her arm out at him.

Lu Yan looked at his only leg, f*cking rascal, she insisted on having him piggyback her even when he’s already disabled?

She was bent on torturing him.

But he was still affectionate towards her, crouching over and patting his back. “Come up.”

With two words, just like that, he was extremely manly.

An’an beamed, walking over to jump on his back.

Lu Yan supported her hips with his large hand and when he piggybacked her while leaping around with one leg, he was so powerful.

An’an wrapped her arms around his neck and her nose suddenly turned red. She could feel the tears welling up in her eyes, she just continued to let him piggyback her. Though she knew that he was already disabled, at least to her, he wasn’t.

He was just the same.

His tall frame, his strong shoulders. He was just like how he was when he kicked open the human peddlers’ door many years back, when she lifted her head and took the very first glance at him.

Lu Yan arrived beside the bed, throwing her onto the soft bed. He narrowed his eyes and looked at her with a spurious smile on his face. “You’re finally satisfied?”

An’an was pleased and she gloated, “I’m not going to let you piggyback me for free, here’s your underwear.”

She picked up a black underwear and there was a new set of clothing on the bed.

She had taken the white shirt and black trousers from her brother’s room, they were brand new.

Once he saw the underwear in her hands, Lu Yan cursed, “Little rascal, you let me wash my underwear even when you had a new one?”

An’an lifted her leg, kicking his left leg. Who’s the little rascal?

Lu Yan hadn’t moved even an inch, he was so muscular, as though he was made of steel.

An’an sat up. “You can go to sleep first, remember to sleep on the couch and don’t sleep on my bed!”

An’an then left the room.

...

Once she got down the stairs, she headed straight for the kitchen.

The maid asked, “Elder Miss, what would you like to eat, I’ll prepare it.”

An’an waved her hand. “All of you go out now, I’m going to cook it myself.”

The maid stared at An’an before she lowered her head and stepped out of the kitchen. She seemed like she had a guilty conscience.

An’an was left alone in the kitchen and she started to make egg fried rice. She hadn’t tried cooking even once in her life, that was her first time cooking and it was for him. She wanted to cook him some egg fried rice.

Once she added some oil into the pot, it splattered on her finger and it instantly turned red.

It was really painful. But she wasn’t bothered about it, she focused on cooking the egg fried rice. Soon, a plate of egg fried rice that had both the looks and smell, was ready.

An’an was pleased with her work, she hadn’t expected her first dish ever to be so successful. It seemed like she had some culinary gift. She held the plate of egg fried rice in her hands, wanting to head upstairs.

But right when she turned around, she saw Huo Yanmei standing by the entrance of the kitchen, with one maid standing behind her.

Huo Yanmei looked at the plate in An’an’s hands and furrowed her brows. “An’an, are you not full from dinner yet?”

An’an nodded. “Yeah, I’m going back to my room to eat this.”

She stretched her legs out, wanting to walk away.

But once she moved her leg, she felt limp all over and didn’t have an ounce of energy left, as though she had landed in a pile of cotton.

An’an could sense something amiss with her body as she was a member of the FIU.

What happened?

An’an looked at Huo Yanmei. “Mom, what did you do to me?”

“An’an, Junxun is in the guestroom upstairs, Mom is going to send you to him and you’ll become his woman from today onwards.”

Pah, the plate of fried rice in An’an’s hands fell on the ground.

With her pupils contracting, she looked at Huo Yanmei in disbelief. “Mom, I’m your daughter!”

“An’an, don’t blame Mom, it’s all for your own good. Lu Yan is already dead and even if he’s really alive, he’s already 40 years old. He has a 20 year age gap with yー”

“Mom!” An’an suddenly interrupted Huo Yanmei’s words and raised the corner of her lips into a charming but pitiful smile. “Our 20 year age gap has never been a problem, I’d be willing to live 20 years less to die together with him.”
