Chapter 449

She took it upon herself to come to the villa.

She had been nervous at first, unsure whether she would run into Mei Mei, but when she saw the place pitch-black, she knew she had guessed right.

At least the two of them wouldn't be too awkward; Sister Guagua also wanted to personally do something for Xu Can.

Otherwise he would feel as though he hadn't done anything at all, and that would be a regret.

The distance between Xu Can and her had to be closed by his own strength, getting closer and closer.

She had bought the freshest vegetables and seafood from the supermarket.

During their usual get-togethers, Sister Guagua had carefully memorized Xu Can's favorite dishes.

All for this day!

When she hugged him from behind, Xu Can suddenly caught a whiff of an unfamiliar scent.

Mei Mei would never use that brand of perfume.

And that brand of perfume belonged to Sister Guagua!

Xu Can wasn't disgusted, just a little startled; he suddenly opened his eyes and pulled away from her embrace.

He'd simply mistaken her for someone else.

"Why is it you?"

When those large hands reached her, Sister Guagua had been thrilled at first, the smile lingering on her lips—until she heard those words!

When he held her from behind, she felt as if the two of them were simply living their lives together, just an ordinary married couple.

If only things could really stay like this, time frozen at this very moment—she didn't know how happy he would be!

But she hadn't expected Xu Can to respond like this.

"I came to cook for you. Seeing how exhausted you looked at the Banjiangwan Society, I figured no one would be cooking for you when you got back, so I came over…"

Xu Can could guess what she was thinking just from looking at her lowered head.

But since there was a beauty in his arms, why would he refuse?

Seeing how flustered she looked, Xu Can spoke in a deliberately casual tone.

"I can smell it—it's really fragrant."

"Now that you mention it, I'm actually a bit hungry. I'm really looking forward to your cooking tonight."

Sister Guagua was pleasantly surprised.

She hurriedly tossed the vegetables in the wok.

"This is a Huaxia dish I specially learned—I hope you'll like it!"

"You've worked hard. I appreciate the thought."

Sister Guagua shyly shook her head.

It was all something she ought to do.

"Why don't you go take a hot shower first and relax your body. You've really been too worn out lately…"

When Xu Can came out wrapped in a towel, the dining table was already covered with dishes!

This was indeed a great temptation for him.

Coming home from work to a woman waiting for you inside, with a table full of food prepared—that kind of warmth was something she hadn't felt in a long time.

She couldn't help but keep staring at Sister Guagua's face.

Too bad his girlfriend was already set as Mei Mei.

Mei Mei definitely had a place in his heart; whether anyone else could squeeze in would depend on their performance.

"Try it first and see if you can eat it. This is my first time trying to cook a Huaxia dish for someone else—I don't know if it suits your taste!"

Xu Can smiled slightly; as he lowered his head, the collar of his bathrobe loosened a little.

Sister Guagua shyly turned her head away.

Yet she lingered, reluctant to look away.

He really was too tired; after eating his fill, Xu Can fell into a deep sleep.

He didn't even notice the great beauty right beside him.

Lately, besides the movie matters, he also had to deal with public opinion.

And then there was another award ceremony back to back.

His body really was worn out; he hadn't even had time to check his phone.

Mei Mei had already messaged him earlier, saying she had another event tonight and couldn't come to Xu Can's place to take care of him!

But Mei Mei never imagined someone had already seized the opportunity to slip in.

Still, Xu Can's体质 of attracting adoring fans had always been there.

Sister Guagua cleaned the place up spotlessly.

For some reason, while tidying up at Xu Can's home, she always felt a sense of accomplishment, and a sense of happiness.

When she was at her own home, she truly couldn't be bothered to lift a finger.

After finishing the cleanup, she tiptoed carefully into Xu Can's bedroom, unsure whether she would wake him.

Sneaking over on tiptoe, she found that Xu Can was already fast asleep.

He must have been too exhausted; his body had already entered a state of deep sleep.

Sister Guagua quietly drew closer to Xu Can.

Even her breathing grew rapid.
