Chapter 12 Breakfast and a Confession
I stared at the delicate chandelier hanging above me.
I could not remember where I was.
The bedroom door handle turned slowly. I looked toward the sound.
Lanxi's figure entered my view.
"You're awake," she said.
Lanxi seemed to have dressed up carefully. Every movement looked like a beautiful painting.
When I did not speak, Lanxi continued, "I have already made breakfast. Come out and try it."
I thought of the dream again.
I looked away and nodded. "Okay."
"Yes, I'll wait for you in the living room."
As the bedroom door closed again, I let out a deep breath.
My heart pounded hard in my chest.
I subconsciously grabbed the clothes in front of my chest to calm it down.
It was not good to delay too long. I put on slippers and walked to the living room.
The aroma of food rushed into my nose. It smelled delicious.
I did not know what time Lanxi woke up. She had cooked four dishes.
"Try it quickly," she said.
Under her expectant gaze, I picked up some food and put it in my mouth.
It really tasted good.
"How does it taste?"
"Very delicious," I commented.
Lanxi looked very happy, as if she had received a huge reward.
"I once specially learned how to cook," Lanxi paused deliberately and looked up at me. "Do you know why?"
"Why?"
"Because I planned to cook for the person I like."
