Soon, the tall figure of a man appeared by the door behind her.
After scanning through the clothes in her wardrobe, Lin Yiqian half-heartedly picked up a black T-shirt. However, she did not turn around for a long time despite having done so.
She suddenly felt clueless about how to speak to the man behind her. Should she ask him why he had brought the clothes back? Why did he look for them in the first place?
Even if he knew he was wrong, were the clothes she bought actually important to him?
Right then, Lin Yiqian felt as if her heart could not take it anymore.
“What are you doing?” Gu Nianshen asked confusedly after seeing that she had not moved for a long time.
As he asked the question, he began walking closer to Lin Yiqian.
She could feel his tall figure approaching. He was getting closer… He was right next to her now.
She felt pressured right then.
“Gu Nianshen.” She chose to turn around and face him instead.
She had called his name out loudly as if she had something to say to him.
“Yeah?” Gu Nianshen stopped walking and raised his brows.
At first, Lin Yiqian wanted to ask him about the clothes. However, if she did so, he would find out that she had peeked at his clothes.
“Why do you want to have a daughter with me?” She decided to ask upfront.
Could he have fallen for her just a little bit?
After asking the question, Lin Yiqian’s heart began to pound as she avoided his gaze.
Gu Nianshen frowned for a moment as he recalled how he had been so caught up in jealousy that night.
‘Don’t you want a daughter? We can have one together.’
As he recalled the words he had spoken that night, he began to feel embarrassed.
Why did this idiot suddenly ask about that?
Whilst Lin Yiqian still waited for his response, he turned to look at her face. A red flush had begun to appear on her cheeks on both sides.
It looked almost like natural blushers had been applied to her face, making her look very attractive.
Gu Nianshen gulped as a thought occurred to him. “That’s because you are pretty and I know you won’t affect our daughter’s good looks genetically.”
After finishing his sentence, Gu Nianshen pondered in his mind. This sounded like the perfect reason.
Lin Yiqian was confused.
Last time, he told her that she looked rather good. This time, he was saying it directly that she looked pretty.
However, it did mean that he actually liked her appearances.
As Lin Yiqian lowered her head, an almost unnoticeable smile appeared on her face.
“I’ll think about it,” she said as she lifted her face, which now had a cool expression.
Then, she walked past Gu Nianshen with her purse and shirt in hand.
Gu Nianshen turned around as he frowned at the sight of Lin Yiqian leaving in an almost arrogant strut. He felt very unsatisfied.
The idiot had actually said that she needed to think about it despite wanting to have a daughter. Was she not aware that Gu Nianshen had absolutely perfect genes?
However, if Lin Yiqian was willing to consider it, did it mean that Gu Nianshen actually had a chance?
As Gu Nianshen thought about this, he began to smile.
The idiot was finally learning how to appreciate good looks in a normal way.

Dressed in a black T-shirt and matching jeans without any make-up on, Lin Yiqian showed up at the Lin family’s old bungalow.
After all these years, the bungalow had a slightly aged quality to it. However, nothing else had seemed to change as it still reminded Lin Yiqian of the time when her grandmother had passed away.
Furnished with wholly wooden furniture of over twenty years and well-kept, everything seemed familiar to her. The brown couch still had her grandmother’s favorite flower-colored pillows over it. Moreover, the square stool with carvings of fuchsia flowers that her grandmother liked was still placed next to the couch.
As Lin Yiqian took note of all these details, she felt a nostalgic warmth in her heart.
She could not help but smile.
Then, her gaze shifted to a group of people who were sitting on the couch. Over the last five years, a lot of new faces had appeared in this household.
When Lin Tianwan saw Lin Yiqian walking through the door, he immediately put down the cup of tea in his hand before approaching her. “Little Yi, you’re back.”
