Nightmare

"Lin Jian told me what happened at your workplace." He started as he walked to the kitchen with her tailing after him.

"It's nothing. Don't worry about it." She assured him.

He flicked her forehead at her words. "Are you implying that your reputation is not a big deal? It's a huge deal, okay?"

She chuckled. "It is alright. But how can I stop people from creating these rumors about me? Even if I shut Aunt Meiling up, there will always be an enemy or two waiting for an opportunity to strike me down. It can't be helped."

He patted her head. "Even if there will be others in future, I can still handle the current ones. You don't need to worry about this. Just do as you like, okay?"

"Okay." She rose on her tiptoes to kiss him. As though she had asked for it, he grabbed her by the waist and placed her on the kitchen counter.

"Xiehan, we came here to cook." She subtly reminded him.
