Chapter 117 - Reunion (2)
She quickly picked up the phone and placed it next to her ear. “Big Brother.”
Huo YanXiao’s voice came over clearly over the phone. “AnAn, I am coming home two days from now.”
Nie AnAn felt a tingling sensation in her nose and she said, “Big Brother, can I go see you?”
“Just wait for me at home,” said Huo YanXiao in a relaxed tone. “I still have some things to take care of. It’s not a good time for you to come over.”
Nie AnAn understood what Huo YanXiao meant and replied with, “Alright.”
And then, she asked, “Can we do video chat?”
Huo YanXiao chuckled softly and said immediately, “Give me a minute. Let me shave first.”
Nie AnAn wanted to both cry and laugh at the same time. “Okay.”
Huo YanXiao’s video chat request came five minutes later. Once they were connected, his face could be seen.
Looking at the man on the screen, Nie AnAn’s heartbeat increased uncontrollably.
“AnAn, I am sorry to have you worried sick about me,” said Huo YanXiao.
“That’s alright.” There was still worries under her eyes. “Big Brother, are you still in any kind of danger over there?”
“No, no more danger. But I will need to finish up the show,” Huo YanXiao. “Anyways, I will come home as soon as I am discharged the day after tomorrow, okay?”
“Mmm.” Nie AnAn nodded and asked, “What does Big Brother want to eat?”
“Shrimp dumplings and beef with black pepper sauce.” Huo YanXiao added a few more dishes before he looked at the girl on the screen and said, “I want to have all those, but then there’s one that I want to have even more.”
“What is it?” Nie AnAn said right away, “I will make it for you, Big Brother.”
The color in Huo YanXiao’s eyes darkened and he said, “I am not going to tell you just yet.”
“But that way I can prepare the ingredients ahead of time!” said Nie AnAn.
Huo YanXiao’s lips curved upward, and his voice became hoarse. “No need to buy any ingredients.
Now Nie AnAn was really baffled. She couldn't help but ask, “Are you talking about steamed buns?”
Huo YanXiao’s Adam’s apple rolled up and down, but he still didn’t give her the answer.
Outside, it sounded like someone was knocking. Most likely it was Qin Hai, who had just woken up.
Huo YanXiao said to Nie AnAn, “AnAn, I have to run now. I will call you tomorrow.”
“Okay. Goodnight, Big Brother.” Nie AnAn nodded.
“Goodnight.” Before Huo YanXiao disconnected the video chat, he said one last thing to her. “AnAn, even though you are at home, you should still keep your shirt buttoned up properly.”
The screen was off. Nie AnAn put down her cellphone and looked down at herself, not certain what he was talking about.
That’s when she saw that the button above her chest was unbuttoned.
As she was about to go to bed, she didn’t have a bra on. As such, what was underneath was somewhat visible.
She suddenly recalled her conversation with Huo YanXiao.
She asked him if it was steamed buns that he wanted and he didn’t say anything except looking over at her chest area…
OOOOoohhhhhh, he must have seen her chest when he heard steamed buns!
Nie AnAn felt all her blood rushing to her cheeks and her entire body blushed. She threw herself under the blanket and felt both embarrassed and sweet. A feeling that was difficult to describe.

At the same time, Qin ZiMing and Mrs. Qin were spending their most memorable day at the police station.
Both of their cellphones had been taken away. When they turned their phones in was when they saw the dozens of missed calls that they didn’t answer because they had switched to silent mode to make their crying seem more real.
Qin ZiMing really wanted to find out what had gone wrong with his plan. Perhaps a talk with his assistant would have provided him with an answer, but he was forbidden to have contact with anyone with the exception of his lawyers.
