Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Xu Baohan's brows furrowed. "But I just saw that someone else brought it in."

The ticket inspector said helplessly, "Unless they bought it from the theater, and... you brought too much. Many people brought food in, causing the inside to be messy and the smell to be very strong. Either you eat it before going in, or put it in the storage cabinet outside for the time being."

An Lan nodded, pulling Xu Baohan to the side. "Forget it, just stuff it in my bag. I think that's what other people do, they don't have the right to search my bag."

Fortunately, she carried a big bag for the documents..

Xu Baohan glanced at the ticket inspector. He frowned and cleared his throat, "That person has been staring at us, it's not good, and you can't pack so many things. I'll eat my share. Put your share in your bag, the movie will be screened in two minutes. Hurry up and go in, I'll bring my bag in later."

An Lan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Sometimes, she really didn't know whether to say that he was too upright or too rigid, but this movie was said to be good, she really didn't want to delay the first few minutes, she couldn't understand what he meant. "Then I'll go in first."

"Okay."

When she left, she saw Xu Baohan open the rice ball, gulping down mouthfuls of rice, his cheeks puffed up, his flustered and anxious appearance couldn't help but make her laugh.

About five minutes after the screening, Xu Baohan came in and sat beside her. In the darkness, he found her small hand and held it. His fingers were crossed and An Lan could hear him burping non-stop.

She looked over and Xu Baohan said calmly, "I ate too quickly."

An Lan could not help asking, "So you ate a rice ball, a piece of cake and a large cup of drink in seven minutes?"

Xu Baohan coughed lightly and nodded.

An Lan gave him a thumbs up. Perhaps he had not only eaten too quickly, but he had also eaten too much. After all, he had just eaten dinner not too long ago.

Thus, in the first twenty minutes of the movie, Xu Baohan kept burping, causing the people around him to cast disturbing gazes at him.

...

After the movie ended, Xu Baohan drove back to An Lan's house. "An Lan, I applied for my annual leave to rest for a week."

An Lan was stunned, but she nodded. "It's good to rest. Humans aren't machines, we need to relax too."

"I just want to rest and spend more time with you." Xu Baohan's eyes were filled with a gentle smile. "I'll cook for you and do the laundry. Although I can't open an imported supermarket for you, I have to let you know how practical I am."

An Lan covered her forehead in amusement. Was he still fussed over Xuan Yuanlang? "Up to you."

"Oh right, you still haven't told me whether my braised steak is better or Xuan Yuanlang's shoulder steak is better," Xu Baohan continued to ask meaningfully.

An Lan turned around and asked with a faint smile, "Then may I ask if it's more comfortable for me to accompany you in IV drip treatment or Zhuang Tianya accompanying you?"

"Of course it's you," Xu Baohan quickly understood and stopped asking.

...

The conversation came to an end when the car was parked in the parking space below An Lan's building. Xu Baohan turned around, his eyes exceptionally bright and expectant in the dark. "An Lan, can I be the electric blanket on your bed tonight?"

An Lan: "..."

Xu Baohan explained patiently, "The electric blanket can maintain its temperature and not get cold. As long as I'm around, it will always be hot, and it doesn't need to be recharged. It can save electricity and save resources."

"Oh," An Lan was enlightened. She was so impressed by him. "Are there any other benefits? If you tell me another that can convince me, I'll let you stay."
