Chapter 520: I Just Want to Hear You Say It

After dinner, He Jinxuan and Xinyan, along with the two little ones, helped Granny Zhang clean up the dishes and put them in the kitchen.

Granny Zhang then sent them out.

The little black cat raised by the Tong Family next door jumped down from the wall, catching the attention of Ye Silai and Ye Siyan. This cat was quite amusing, not afraid of people at all.

The two little ones tested the waters for a bit before huddling close to the little black cat.

He Jinxuan took the opportunity to pull Xinyan into her room. This room was far from the kitchen, so there was no fear of anyone seeing inside. Once inside, he directly hugged her, doing what he hadn’t dared to do at the gate of Jing University before: "Yanyan, did you miss me?"

Xinyan hugged him back, resting her head on his chest, and playfully said, "Didn’t you ask that before?"

He Jinxuan, inhaling Xinyan’s unique fragrance, said in a husky voice, "But I just want to hear you say it."

Xinyan saw him like this and felt shy. In her past life, she lived like an old ox with no experience in love. Now she thought this feeling was quite nice.

Raising her hand to wrap around He Jinxuan’s neck, "You want to hear it that much?"

Seeing Xinyan on tiptoes, He Jinxuan, afraid she would tire herself, directly picked her up like holding a child. Xinyan, embarrassed by this posture, buried her face in He Jinxuan’s neck, acting coquettishly, "I’m not a child, put me down."

He Jinxuan was reluctant to put her down and couldn’t agree: "Are you going to say it or not?"

Xinyan tightened her arms around He Jinxuan and said coyly, "I did, I very much did, I think about it every day, satisfied now?"

Upon hearing these words, He Jinxuan was overcome with emotion. Xinyan, feeling a change in a certain area, was frightened and didn’t dare to move: "Put me down."

He Jinxuan, unwilling to let go, said, "Stay still, it’ll be fine in a moment."

After a while, he whispered in Xinyan’s ear, "Yanyan, I really want to marry you soon."

Xinyan, who wasn’t really a little girl mentally, naturally understood what He Jinxuan meant, and joked, "Then put me down, serves you right."

He Jinxuan laughed at her words, "You naughty girl."

Xinyan, seeing he still wasn’t prepared to put her down, rested her head on his shoulder, "Is everything settled with work?"

He Jinxuan hugged her tighter, "Yes, the day after tomorrow, I’ll lead the team for a trip."

What he didn’t say was that he had private dealings here, which used to be secondary, but now was the main focus, though he dared not tell Xinyan, fearing she’d worry.

Originally, the two of them hadn’t had enough of being sweet together, but hearing Granny Zhang finish washing the dishes and step out into the courtyard, He Jinxuan had to put her down under Xinyan’s protest.

Xinyan looked at his arms, wanting to ask if they were sore after holding her for so long.

But before she could ask, He Jinxuan handed her a bankbook, "This is for you to keep."

Xinyan looked at the bankbook handed to her and asked, "Where did this come from?"

He Jinxuan glanced outside and lowered his voice, "Cleared all the goods from the East Province, and got back all the money I invested before."

Xinyan suspiciously opened the bankbook, and to her surprise, there was indeed as much as thirty thousand in it: "Why so much?"

He Jinxuan explained quietly, "All the goods pressed before have been sold, and all accounts with Haibo have been cleared. Apart from the three thousand yuan I kept in hand as capital, the rest is all here."

Then he cupped Xinyan’s face and gave her a kiss, "Don’t worry, I’ll work hard to earn money for you. Don’t ever compromise yourself; buy whatever you want."

He took the position of captain of the new fleet at the transport company with his own considerations. As a captain, he didn’t have to lead the team long-term, but could go whenever he wanted without restriction.

He had previously sensed the shift in commercial trends and believed it wouldn’t be long before new rules emerged, so he had been waiting for the right opportunity.

In the meantime, he wanted to make adequate preparations, whether in terms of connections or capital, to give his little girl a stable and carefree life, and present the best things in the world to her.

He believed this opportunity would arrive soon; he seemed to already sense it. Now all he needed to do was wait patiently.
