SLDH Ch. 72.1

When he got home from work, Fan Chen subconsciously looked at the window on the second floor opposite his, he didn’t know when it started, but the first thing he did whenever he opened the courtyard door was to look up at that window.

Without turning off the light, Fan Chen couldn’t help but smile, he thought that this time Mi Wan was going to hide from him for another week.

Just as he was thinking this, the phone suddenly rang, he took it out and found that it was the fox demon Quan Juncai who had sent him a message: (Boss, when is the right time to send over my Xiao Rui to you, so I can be sure of the date of the business trip.)

Fan Chen thought for a moment, then replied: (Send him tomorrow morning.)

After replying to the message of the fox demon, Fan Chen opened the chat with Mi Wan and prepared to mention this matter to her. Halfway through, the Demon King suddenly stopped. He turned his head and glanced at the opposite window again, not knowing what he thought, but he suddenly put away his phone and went back to sleep.

The next morning.

After a good night’s sleep, Mi Wan stretched, got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. Just after she had finished washing up, Auntie Zhang ran to her bedroom with a nervous and happy expression on her face.

“Miss, why haven’t you changed your clothes yet?”

Mi Wan glanced at the pajamas on her body, and then at the clock on the wall. She woke up half an hour earlier than usual today. How could she not understand what Auntie Zhang meant? What did she seem to have delayed?

“Sister Zhang, do I have any special arrangements this morning?” Mi Wan asked suspiciously, did she forget something important.

“No.” As Mrs. Zhang said this, she dragged Mi Wan to the cloakroom and began to rummage inside.

“Then why are you in such a hurry?” Mi Wan was even more puzzled.

“Mr. Fan is here.” Sister Zhang picked out two pieces of clothes from the hanger, compared them by placing them on Mi Wan’s body, and then picked out a pink dress that showed off her complexion and handed it to Mi Wan, “Miss, this peach blossom dress is good-looking, it’s also a good omen.”

“…Mr. Fan?” Mi Wan hugged the peach blossom dress and was stunned.

“Yes, it’s the Mr. Fan you like. He suddenly came to visit at home this morning. Butler Ye is entertaining him, so hurry up.” Auntie Zhang pushed Mi Wan to change her clothes.

Even after being pushed into the changing room, Mi Wan was still stunned. What did it mean? Who do I like? Mr. Fan, is it Fan Chen? Why did Fan Chen come to my house?

Mi Wan thought it was strange, so she quickly changed her clothes, and hurriedly pushed open the door and ran downstairs, ignoring Auntie Zhang who was handing her a matching coat. Auntie Zhang took a step slower and chased her to the door of the room with her coat, but she couldn’t stop her young lady, and her face was filled with consternation: Miss, even if you want to see Mr. Fan earlier, you should comb your hair anyway.

That’s right, Auntie Zhang chased Mi Wan not because she wanted her to put on a coat, but because her young lady had messy hair.

Downstairs, Butler Ye had made a pot of good tea and brought it over. Just as he was about to speak, footsteps sounded from upstairs. The footsteps were very fast, and as soon as one heard it, they would know the person coming downstairs was in a hurry. Butler Ye’s eyes twitched, he knew that his young lady had a crush on Mr. Fan next door, but she had to be more reserved.

“My young lady is a little excited to hear that Mr. Fan is here.” Butler Ye tried his best to protect the image of his young lady.

Fan Chen had already raised his head to look at the stairs, but after listening to Butler Ye’s words, he couldn’t help but pause, and ask, “Wan Wan mentioned me?”

Of course not, we all saw that she had a crush on you.

“My lady admires Mr. Fan very much.” As the president of the Wuxing Group, a legend in the environmental protection and business circles, there were many people in the world who appreciated Mr. Fan. Butler Ye consciously knew how to advance and retreat. His words could be understood to mean that his young lady liked him, or it could also be understood as pure appreciation on Mi Wan’s part. Yes, this was the professional quality of a qualified housekeeper.

“Wan Wan she…”

Fan Chen’s eyes lit up slightly, his decision to come here today was really well done, to actually hear this kind of news, but just when he was about to ask a few more words, Mi Wan’s voice suddenly came from the stairs.

“Fan Chen, why are you here?”

Butler Ye and Fan Chen turned their heads at the same time, but the expression on their faces were completely different.

Butler Ye: Miss, what kind of look are you showing? Even if you can’t wait to see Mr. Fan, you should still clean up. I asked Mrs. Zhang to help you, why didn’t she even comb your hair.

Fan Chen: She didn’t comb her hair again.

That’s right, because someone often chatted with him while wearing pajamas and lying on the window, so the Lord Demon King had long seen all her sides and how she looked before going to bed, after going to bed, and when she was asleep. So, in fact, he was already very familiar with her in some ways.

“Cough…Miss, do you want to go back and clean up.” Butler Ye touched his hair and hinted desperately.

It’s a pity that Mi Wan didn’t understand at all, she waved her hand, walked down the few steps, stood in front of Fan Chen, and asked again, “Why are you here?”

“I need to ask you for help, so I came to visit.” Fan Chen stood up from the sofa with a smile.

“What couldn’t you say on the phone?” Mi Wan was puzzled.

Butler Ye on the side listened to Mi Wan’s conversation that could literally kill the sky and couldn’t help sweating. His lady seemed to have a low EQ.

“I think since we live next door, it would be more sincere if I came to visit in person.” Fan Chen continued to smile.

Butler Ye: Look, look at how well-mannered and self-disciplined Mr. Fan is.

“Oh~~” Mi Wan thought about it and felt that what Fan Chen said was right, but she was used to them going over the wall or talking on phone, they had never visited each other in an open and honest way, so she found it strange when Fan Chen suddenly came over today.

But after thinking about it, normal people should get along by visiting each other. She always felt a little sneaky with how they usually met. “Then why are you asking me for help?”

“Come to ask if there are still places in your popcorn kindergarten.” Fan Chen said.

“Xiao Bai… Rui?” Mi Wan changed her words in time.

“En.” Fan Chen nodded.

“Why didn’t Quan Juncai talk to me directly?” Mi Wan asked this question.

“He had to go on a business trip in a hurry. He sent Xiao Rui to me early this morning and left. I just brought him here.” Fan Chen, who had already prepared the answer, replied calmly.

The little white fox also came, Mi Wan looked around, but did not see the little white fox.

“Xiao Rui hasn’t had breakfast yet. Butler Ye was afraid that he would be hungry, so he took him to the dining room for breakfast.” Fan Chen seemed to have guessed Mi Wan’s intention.

“Yes, children can’t be left hungry. The young lady hasn’t eaten either. I’ll go prepare the food now. You and Mr. Fan will come over for breakfast later?” Butler Ye stared at his young lady’s messy hair with a look of despair. They had been talking for so long, and it was too late to clean up, so let it be.

“I’m bothering Butler Ye.” Before Mi Wan could answer, Fan Chen responded proactively.

“No trouble, no trouble, I’ll go right now.” Butler Ye exited the living room with a smile.

After Butler Ye left, there were only the two of them left in the living room. Mi Wan stared at Fan Chen again in doubt: “Is this really what you were looking for me for?”

“Yeah.” Fan Chen nodded, then raised his hand and flicked it. Mi Wan’s head overflowed with demonic power, and wherever the power went, the messy hair seemed to become neat and smooth as if it had been combed by an invisible comb.

“What are you doing?” Mi Wan touched her hair subconsciously.

“Your hair was a little messy just now.” Fan Chen reminded, “Didn’t you notice that your butler was almost having a fit?”

Mi Wan thought for a while, and suddenly realized: “No wonder he kept touching his hair just now.”

“Butler Ye said just now that you appreciate me very much.” Fan Chen smiled and asked with his head lowered.

“I didn’t…” Mi Wan was about to retort, but when he raised his head, her eyes suddenly collided with a pair of smiling eyes. Those eyes were dark and deep, with a lingering tenderness, and a girl’s stunned face was reflected in them. There was nothing else, but Mi Wan’s heartbeat suddenly began to be uncontrollable.

When did they…stand so close?

Mi Wan took a half step back and said embarrassedly, “Eat… I’ve eaten.”

“Okay.” Fan Chen nodded and didn’t continue to ask. He only needed to confirm that Mi Wan was not completely indifferent towards him, and he didn’t need to force her to agree immediately, even if they were just ambiguous, it was a rare joy in his long life.

The two walked slowly to the dining room. Behind them, at the entrance of the stairs on the second floor, Mrs. Zhang was squatting in the corner with a comb, her hands shaking with excitement: There is a show, there is a show~~

T/N: Auntie Zhang being a total fangirl….
