He opened the balcony door all the way and made way for Yu Zi to come in with her phone in her hand.

Yan Huaian was at a loss for a moment before deciding to ask her, “Your… fiancé, did he misunderstand?”

Yu Zi stopped in her tracks for a second before continuing to walk toward the kitchen. Then, she replied, “We broke up. The engagement fell through.”

“I’m sorry,” Yan Huaian said. At the same time, he struggled to stop the corners of his mouth from arching upward. It looked like his face muscles were having spasms.

Thankfully Yu Zi had her head lowered down, so she did not notice this.

“If you’re… willing to share, I’ll be your ears. If you’re not, then I won’t ask anymore,” Yan Huaian said. In reality, he was immensely curious about it.

“It’s nothing really. It’s… let’s just say our families think differently. The elders were not quite satisfied.” Yu Zi explained briefly, obviously not wanting to talk about it anymore.

Yan Huaian pondered quietly for a moment and decided not to ask further.

When she returned to the kitchen, she discovered the fried beans that she had been frying halfway had been thoroughly cooked by him. It seemed like he had started cooking some sort of beef brisket dish with tomatoes now.

Yan Huaian felt embarrassed and said, “Do you mind that I took the initiative to make this? When we had lunch the other day, I saw you ordered a bowl of tomato soup. So, I was thinking you wouldn’t hate the taste of it.”

Yu Zi smiled as she nodded. “I like them.”

Yan Huaian showed a relieved expression, but he noticed Yu Zi hesitating, which made him ask her, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing really. It’s just that when you cooking beef brisket with tomatoes, do you usually put soy sauce in it?” Yu Zi asked.

Yan Huaian choked at her question.

Alright, he could admit that he was a man that was full of schemes. When Yu Zi’s cell phone rang, he ‘accidentally’ glanced at the screen and knew that it was Yu Zi’s boyfriend calling her.

Hence, he deliberately wanted to make his presence known when she was on the phone with him, just so that he would misunderstand. He noticed the atmosphere yesterday, so it was clear that something was going on with Yu Zi and Yu Jingchen. However, he did not expect them to have actually broken up.

Asking for the soy sauce was an excuse he thought of in the heat of the moment, and he forgot that he was making beef brisket with tomatoes.

Thus, after hearing Yu Zi’s question, Yan Huaian was suddenly at a loss for words. He rubbed his nose before replying, “Hmm, don’t you usually put soy sauce when you’re cooking beef brisket with tomatoes?”

“I never have. Have you been doing it this whole time?” Yu Zi giggled as she asked. She was not suspicious of him at all.

Since Yan Huaian was a grown man, he was not able to cook for himself often. Moreover, everyone had different habits when it came to their choice of seasoning.

Yan Huaian was unclear about this too, but he reckoned that it would not make much of a difference if he added a little bit anyway.

Yan Huaian shook his head. “It’s my first time making this, so I wasn’t sure. I was contemplating whether it needed some.”

Yu Zi laughed when she saw Yan Huaian’s clueless expression. She had mixed feelings about it though, as it was a striking contrast to his powerful personality. She did not expect the swift and decisive man at work to be this uncoordinated at home.

The lousy frame of mind she was in after talking with Yue Jingchen slowly dissipated as she laughed at the man in front of her. She immediately felt more relaxed now.

“You should go and sit down in the living room. I’ll finish up,” Yu Zi said.

“I came here for the first time today, and I’m already freeloading off you. You need to at least give me a chance to express my gratitude.” Yan Huaian chuckled as he spoke. Before they knew it, they were no longer so unfamiliar with each other and were soon getting comfortable around each other.

The only thing that bothered Yu Zu was the fact that Yan Huaian constantly had an electrifying gaze when he was talking.

Yu Zi could hardly bear to have any eye contact with him.

He just so happened to have a benevolent gaze as well, so it seemed like he had no other emotions in his eyes. However, she ended up being the one that did not dare to meet his gaze, as if she was the one having wicked thoughts.
