Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

“Let me do it.” Cindy reached out to take the food container.

Adrian Zhekova immediately dodged to the side, leaving Cindy to grab at nothing, and she nearly lost her balance.

Her hand searched for a place to steady herself but inadvertently landed on Adrian Zhekova’s arm.

Adrian Zhekova looked down at her hand, then met her eyes.

Cindy quickly pulled back her hand, thinking she must be crazy!

“You prepared a delicate lunch for me, so it’s only right that I wash the container, isn’t it?” Adrian Zhekova said with a faint smile.

“But you prepared lunch for me, too.” It was much more precious than what she had given him.

While they were talking, Adrian Zhekova quickly and skillfully washed the container clean.

Then, he stood still.

Cindy looked up at him, puzzled.

Adrian Zhekova raised an eyebrow: “I was about to use the restroom. Do you want to watch?”

Cindy’s face turned bright red with embarrassment.

She turned and bolted away as if someone were chasing her.

“Hey, wait a minute.” Adrian Zhekova called out from behind her. Cindy had already run out and stopped when she heard his voice, feeling extremely awkward.

She hesitated whether to go back or not.

Suddenly, there was a food container in front of her: “I wanted to ask you to take the container out, so I wouldn’t be inconvenienced.”

” Cindy felt that today, in front of Adrian Zhekova, she had lost all dignity.

She quickly took the food container and turned around, not expecting Adrian Zhekova to be standing so close behind her.

Her shoulder brushed against Adrian Zhekova’s, almost like she had crashed directly into his arms.

Cindy was taken aback and jerked back, causing her whole body to lean backward.

Adrian Zhekova quickly reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist.

He could feel her slim waist again.

Adrian Zhekova wondered if he could wrap his arm around her waist with room to spare, given how thin it was.

His hand instinctively tightened its grip around her waist.

Following the force of his arm and inertia, Cindy could not help but crash into his embrace.

It was as if Adrian Zhekova had forgotten that he was holding her at that moment and his hand did not loosen.

Cindy felt her heartbeat speed up, as if it was about to leap out of her chest.

The two were so close that it seemed they could hear each other’s heartbeats.

Who would have thought that she could be so close to Adrian Zhekova one day?

She herself could not imagine it.

No one would believe it if she mentioned it.

“Weren’t you going to use the restroom?” For some inexplicable reason, Cindy blurted out this sentence.

Adrian Zhekova: ‘

He had just been teasing her earlier, but she still remembered it.

Her constant reminders of this incident seemed to tarnish his image.

“I’ll go now…” Adrian Zhekova said with a wooden face and finally let go of

Cindy.

“Wait here for a moment.”

Without waiting for Cindy’s response, he went to the restroom.

Only then did Cindy gasp for air.

She just realized that when she was close to him, even her breathing had become careful and cautious.

Cindy felt her ears burning, and reaching up, she found her face hot as well.

She did not have the habit of carrying a mirror with her, so she took out her mobile phone and turned on the front-facing camera to take a look.

Although the front camera’s resolution was not as high as a mirror, it was still sufficient.

It captured Cindy’s flushed face.

Had she looked like this just now?

It was so embarrassing!

“Are you eat-” Adrian Zhekova came out and saw Cindy holding her phone to her face, not yet finishing his sentence.

Cindy quickly put away the phone, feeling even more embarrassed.

“I should go now.” Cindy held her phone uneasily.

Seeing that she had finished her lunch, Adrian Zhekova nodded without insisting that she stay longer..
