Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession-Chapter 661: Did You Come to See Me?
"Did you come to see me?"
A detached voice, revealing neither joy nor displeasure.
Bai Lanlan seemed very used to Bai Chenyao’s tone, or perhaps this had always been their mode of interaction.
"Yes, Brother Chenyao, I’m so happy to see you."
As she spoke, Bai Lanlan slightly pouted, feeling a bit smug yet somewhat resentful.
"But I didn’t expect to knock for so long before you opened the door, Brother Chenyao."
After speaking, Bai Lanlan looked at Bai Chenyao with great grievance in her eyes, appearing pitiful, like an abandoned puppy.
Her bright, clear almond eyes blinked as Bai Chenyao continued to simply look at her, without any intention of speaking, prompting Bai Lanlan to shift her gaze.
She glanced around, her attention quickly turning to the kitchen.
"Brother Chenyao, you probably haven’t eaten yet, right? I’ll make you your favorite scallion egg noodles."
Bai Chenyao, with a cold expression, watched Bai Lanlan about to stand up, his voice deep and chilly.
"I’ve eaten. I’m fine. You should go back immediately!"
Bai Lanlan was stunned, clearly surprised.
She paused briefly, her almond eyes blinked, quickly filling with tears, but she just looked at Bai Chenyao with misty eyes without actually crying.
"Brother Chenyao?"
"I just got here, and you want me to leave already. Brother Chenyao, do you know how much I miss you?"
Bai Chenyao didn’t want to say more to Bai Lanlan, his dark eyes glancing at Li Mu standing nearby.
Li Mu, eager to redeem himself, quickly stood next to Bai Lanlan.
"Miss Lanlan, please!"
Bai Lanlan was again stunned, still full of disbelief.
"Brother Chenyao?"
Noticing Bai Chenyao’s increasingly indifferent expression, Bai Lanlan slowly stood up, restraining the moisture in her eyes, yet unable to hide the forlorn pity within.
"I understand, Brother Chenyao, I’ll go back now."
"Take good care of yourself, and remember... remember to come see me when you have time, okay?"
The last sentence was asked very cautiously.
It even carried an indescribable sense of pitiful humility.
Bai Chenyao gave her a cold glance, his dark, deep eyes as inscrutable as ever, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.
However, this time, he did not ignore Bai Lanlan’s words and replied coldly.
"Okay!"
The originally reluctant and aggrieved Bai Lanlan brightened instantly upon hearing Bai Chenyao’s agreement, looking at him joyfully, her almond eyes full of happiness and excitement.
"Okay, I’ll be waiting for you at the old house, Brother Chenyao."
"Brother Chenyao, I’ll be heading back now."
With that, Bai Lanlan quickly stood up, looking at Bai Chenyao with happiness, intending to approach him and give him a light kiss.
Bai Chenyao slightly turned aside, allowing Bai Lanlan’s farewell kiss to miss its mark.
Her eyes flashed with surprise, and she looked at Bai Chenyao with tremendous grievance.
Seeing Bai Chenyao’s expression seemingly grow even colder, Bai Lanlan bit her lip in grievance but quickly regained a cheerful demeanor after thinking of something.
"Then, Brother Chenyao... goodbye!"
Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking Bai Lanlan was going to continue speaking.
Seeing Bai Lanlan rise, Li Mu promptly followed her out to see her off.
Keeping a side glance on the situation with his master, he noticed him quickly retreating into the study after standing up.
Li Mu quickly redirected his attention and followed Bai Lanlan out.
