Bab 89: Chapter 89 His Heart's Desire_1

"All set."

Li Mingxun steps back and notices Luo Qianxun's cheeks flushed. He realizes how close they were just then.

Why did he spontaneously help her put on the necklace? It's truly inexplicable.

"Thank you."

Luo Qianxun thanks Li Mingxun with reddened cheeks. Although it was her creation, the sentiment comes from him.

Li Mingxun simply shrugs. He's had the necklace for a while, and finally chose to give it to Luo Qianxun.

"I'll cook."

Luo Qianxun feels the atmosphere is awkward. She turns to get her apron but Li Mingxun takes it away.

"You don't need to. The housemaid will arrive soon."

His words take Luo Qianxun by surprise, "You've already arranged it?"

Li Mingxun glances at her as if she asked an unnecessary question and couldn't bother to respond.

However, the tension between them seems to have eased a bit.

The doorbell rings. Luo Qianxun goes to open the door and sees a woman in her fifties standing outside. She is likely the housemaid Li Mingxun hired.
