Let's Get Married

Lily's tightens her hand under the table. She can feel there are two pairs of eyes from the opposite side staring at her.

She turns her face away not to looking at Ryan, and then says softly and unnaturally, "No, I won’t leave uncle."

"Great!" Adair claps his hands happily, and then, goes back to eat the meat on the plate.

Because of this little conversation, Lily feels a little uncomfortable afterwards. She is a little absent-minded when speaking, and most of her attention is on the little kid.

After finish eating, she coaxes Adair back to his room to play toys. Then she comes back to the kitchen to clean up the remnants.

Ryan doesn't like seeing any strangers in the house, which is similar to that man’s habit. That’s why all the cleaning things naturally become Lily’s job.

She brings the dishes and chopsticks into the sink, and is about to bend down to wash. Suddenly a hot man body covers her from behind.

"Ah!" Lily gets shocked and screams out. She quickly turns around and sees a very familiar face behind her, "You scared me to death!"

Ryan glances at the bowls and chopsticks in the sink, lowers his head closer and frowns, "You smell like hot pot."

Lily feels dumbfounded. She pushes him, "Who asks you to smell it."

"Isn't it Christmas? I wanted to cook something to eat."

The man curls his lips and looks at her with a meaningful smile, "That's it?"

Lily is not good at expressing her feelings. She nods her head with a little embarrassment when he asks, "Recently, I have been too busy at work to take care of family affairs. I finally have time..."
