Chapter 76: 076. Actually, we can develop a more advanced relationship between us.

As soon as Aunt Chen heard that they were just ordinary friends, she instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and Mu Jin Huan became more pleasing to her eyes.

Affectionately holding Nan Wan’s hand, she lowered her voice and continued with a cheerful smile, "My son is off tomorrow. I wonder if Doctor Nan has time to come to our house for a meal together?"

Nan Wan maintained a polite smile, discreetly withdrew her hand, pulled over the shopping cart, and quickly spoke, "Aunt Chen, you are busy, we have something to attend to, so we’ll leave now."

After she finished speaking, she didn’t pay heed to Aunt Chen’s attempt to hold them back, hurriedly tugged at the man’s arm, and jogged away from Aunt Chen’s sight.

...

The appearance of this little episode quietly dissipated the restlessness in Mu Jin Huan’s body.

Half-smiling, he gazed at the silent woman beside him, his well-defined fingers lifted a strand of her loose hair, tucking it behind her ear, his thin lips curling into a faint arc, his voice deep as if whispering intimately between lovers, "Are we, friends?"

His calloused fingers gently brushed the skin behind her ear, stirring a peculiar sensation, even the breath he exhaled seemed electric, numbing her nerve endings.

Nan Wan moved a step aside, took a deep breath, and with a calm expression, placed each vegetable from the cart onto the checkout counter.

As if she hadn’t noticed the cashier’s peculiar gaze, she remained composed as she paid, carrying the paper bag out of the supermarket.

"It’s my fault for casually claiming friendship; I’ll be more careful next time, so can Mr. Mu also be a bit mindful of his behavior, okay?"

Didn’t he see the dagger-like glares from those girls?

Is such unreserved intimacy in public places appropriate between them?

If they encountered someone who loved him to the point of psychological distortion and she got sulfuric acid thrown at her, ruining her beautiful face, could he bear the responsibility?

Mu Jin Huan took the paper bag from the woman’s arms, deliberately slowed his pace to match hers.

The corner of his lips curled slightly, and he spoke unhurriedly, "Actually, we can develop a closer relationship."

His deep, mellow voice was deliberately enchanting.

Nan Wan was well aware that such words were just for listening.

She gave him a blank look and said lightly, "Still up for dinner?"

————

Upon arrival, Mu Jin Huan took the groceries they bought at the supermarket out of the trunk before Nan Wan, then stretched his legs to follow her upstairs.

The light in the hallway was fixed, and it was very bright.

Nan Wan walked ahead, out of the corner of her eye, she could vaguely see the shadow of the man’s tall, majestic figure cast on the wall, hearing the heavy footsteps behind her, an odd emotion suddenly seeped into her heart.

This emotion slowly fermented in her heart, growing stronger the closer she got to her floor.

After Nan Wan opened the door with her key, she stepped aside to make room, after all, he was a guest, he should enter first.

Mu Jin Huan was not shy at all; he walked in like he owned the place, lingering at the entrance for two seconds without seeing any men’s slippers to change into, he thoughtfully suggested, "Doctor Nan, when you have time, shouldn’t you consider getting a pair of men’s slippers?"

Nan Wan closed the door, bent down to take off the high heels from her feet, and casually hung her bag on the hook by the entrance, "I’m sorry, I don’t have that idea for now."
