Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Chapter 1799: Because I'm Jealous

An Lan's heart skipped a beat and she thought she saw a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Xu Baohan's emotions were complicated, but he quickly calmed down. After all, he was a judge and he knew what he had to do. "An Lan, you have successfully convinced me."

"Huh?" An Lan was even more confused.

Xu Baohan's dark eyes were deep, and his cold face had a hint of a smile under the streetlights, "I did want to find a suitable woman to get married at the right time, but you successfully made me give up on that idea. You're right, if I get married just for the sake of getting married, I'll only have a sense of responsibility after marriage. Without the foundation of love, it would indeed be very boring for two people who have never interacted before to live together. If the two of them have shared values and do things with similar methods, then they are very compatible with each other and their life together would definitely be very interesting."

"Oh…" An Lan took a long time to react. Just like that, she had changed the mind of an older man who had wanted to find a suitable woman to marry.

She wondered if his parents would kill her for that.

"An Lan, since we have similar views, can we give it a try?" Xu Baohan suddenly turned his face away and looked at the road beside him, his ears turning slightly red.

"…"

An Lan looked at his ears in surprise. Why was his skin so delicate? It turned out his ears could also turn red.

"What do you think?"

After waiting for a while, Xu Baohan frowned and looked at her in annoyance.

He had his self-respect. He had asked her to go out with him three times but was rejected.

"I think… I think you don't understand what I meant," An Lan snapped back to reality and said dryly, "It seems like you've never asked me if I like you. Don't you know how important this question is?"

"…"

Xu Baohan froze, realizing he had indeed not asked this question.

However, he had the feeling that he was being played. "An Lan, did I do anything to offend you?"

"That's a good question." An LAN nodded and started to count, "You walked into the ladies 'room at the court and I wonder what was wrong with you. Then when I bumped into you on the blind date, you made me pay for your juice. It wasn't romantic at all. When you asked me to treat you to a meal, you always picked a small restaurant that didn't look romantic at all. Also, every time we met, you always asked me to treat you to a meal. Don't you know that when a man and a woman are together, the man usually pays the bill…"

"Then I'll treat you to a meal tomorrow," Xu Baohan suddenly interrupted her.

An Lan's face turned red. "Can you let finish?"

"Alright, continue." Xu Baohan nodded.

An Lan continued, "I asked you to accompany me for a drink and you kept nagging me and sent me those cases in which women got into trouble when they got drunk. It totally ruined my mood…"

"I was worried for your safety, and I wanted you to be careful," Xu Baohan interrupted her again.

An Lan glared at him.

Xu Baohan coughed lightly and said, "Continue."

An LAN said, "Also, I once liked Nian Junting and you accused me of having bad taste in men…"

"Because I was jealous," Xu Baohan interrupted her again.

"…"

An Lan's face turned even redder. Even the dim streetlights could not hide her blush.

Xu Baohan stared at her, a fire burning in his heart. When he saw her biting her lower lip, he suddenly wanted to kiss her.

"Can I kiss you?" He blurted out.
