Chapter 4 I’m done washing, do you want to wash too?
"You want me to stay the night with you?"
Lin Han didn't expect that Jiang Mengyan would react so strongly when he said he wanted to go back.
"Ah... no, that's not the case..."
Realizing that her words were a bit ambiguous, Jiang Mengyan lowered her head in embarrassment.
Under the soft light, her snow-white neck was slightly flushed, spreading all the way to her small and delicate ear tips.
With its head down, it looks like a gentle and shy swan.
"It's because there are always strange noises here at night. It's really scary. I... I'm a little scared."
"Strange noise?"
"Ah."
Jiang Mengyan nodded, a little timid:
"Around midnight, there was a knock on the door a few days ago, and I plucked up the courage to go and ask once. The person outside said it was a food delivery man, but I didn't order food... I said it wasn't mine and he had gone to the wrong place.
Then there would be noises in the middle of the night, like the sound of a key unlocking a door, and I would lock the door, but I was still scared..."
The sound of a key unlocking a door?
Lin Han's face darkened.
There are indeed such methods. Some people will specifically choose the homes of single women living alone, secretly open the lock in the middle of the night and try to commit adultery.
Hanhai Garden, where Jiang Mengyan lives, is an older residential area in Donghai City.
Because it is quite old, many of the infrastructure are no longer complete, and there are many "convenient passages" on the fence that allow people to enter without swiping their access cards.
The security guards won’t care if someone sneaks in by swiping their card.
Lin Han just sent Jiang Mengyan back and didn’t even ask for registration.
The access control device downstairs had long been damaged, and the door of the unit was useless, allowing anyone to come in.
With such security, it is inevitable that Jiang Mengyan would be afraid.
"I know, don't worry, I won't leave tonight."
When Jiang Mengyan heard Lin Han say that he would not leave tonight, she became visibly happy.
"Go wash up and rest. I'll be watching in the living room."
Lin Han smiled slightly and said.
"it is good."
Jiang Mengyan nodded.
For some reason, even though the man in front of me is several years younger than me, when he says these words, I feel extremely at ease.
"Then...I'll go take a shower first."
"Go."
The suggestive sound of water soon came from the bathroom.
Looking at the blurry and graceful figure projected on the frosted glass door, Lin Han did not have any erotic thoughts.
Thinking of Jiang Mengyan's helpless and shivering look just now, he just felt heartbroken.
Although she looks like a cold and aloof beauty, she actually needs protection in private.
Just as he was thinking about it, Lin Han's cell phone rang.
It was Zhou Fan calling.
As soon as he picked up the phone, a ruffian's voice sounded in Lin Han's ears:
"Brother Han, how was the blind date tonight? Was that rich lady easy to deal with? Let's go out for a drink together later, I'll treat you!"
"...Please treat me next time you have a chance. I'm not free tonight."
"Okay... Oh my god, that's not right, why is it gone?? Are you really attracted to that rich lady?!"
Zhou Fan agreed, but immediately realized something was wrong.
Just as I was about to continue asking, Lin Han had already hung up the phone.
Oh my god, something is really happening!
Zhou Fan widened his eyes, staring at the hung up call, stunned.
And on Lin Han's side.
After glancing at the hung up call, Lin Han muted the phone and put it back in his pocket.
Zhou Fan is a man who doesn't control his words. Jiang Mengyan may come out at any time.
Pregnant women are very sensitive, and it would be bad if Zhou Fan said something that made Jiang Mengyan think too much. After a while, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped.
Jiang Mengyan changed into a pink cotton nightgown, which made her look unexpectedly cute and feminine.
"I...I'm done washing, do you want to wash too?"
As if she was not used to being stared at by Lin Han like this, she turned her head away shyly.
"It's okay. I'll just wash up in a bit. You can go into the house and get some rest. If you're worried, you can lock the bedroom door. I'll sleep in the living room tonight."
Lin Han looked up at her.
There were no blemishes on Jiang Mengyan's face when she removed her light makeup. Just like Zhou Fan said, she looked quite good even without makeup.
There are just two faint dark circles under his eyes, and it seems that he really hasn't had enough rest in the past few days.
If I really didn't trust you, I wouldn't have brought you back.
Jiang Mengyan muttered something secretly in her heart, but did not say it out loud.
He just nodded, went back to the bedroom, left the door ajar, and lay down.
The body always feels heavy and tired easily during pregnancy. The aches and pains came over her and Jiang Mengyan soon fell into a light sleep due to drowsiness.
But Lin Han was in the living room, but he couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
In addition to keeping vigil for Jiang Mengyan, he was also thinking about his two children who came out of nowhere and their subsequent lives.
Although Lin Han's family is not wealthy, they are well-educated and well-mannered.
Since childhood, Lin Han has been taught by his parents to treat the opposite sex with emotion and courtesy.
If he suddenly told his parents that he had gotten a girl pregnant, he would probably be severely beaten.
But this is also necessary.
Jiang Mengyan's baby is already four months old. She has been carrying the baby on her own for four months, and now her pregnancy is starting to show.
He couldn't let her continue to be nameless and without status like this.
Even if you don't get the marriage certificate and hold the wedding right away, at least your parents must be informed.
Also, where to live is a problem.
It is far away from Tunghai University and the security is not enough, so I have to find another house with strict security near Tunghai University.
This way, Jiang Mengyan can go to and from get off work conveniently without having to worry about safety issues.
It also makes it convenient for me to take care of her at any time.
During their conversation just now, Lin Han had already learned that Jiang Mengyan was originally a professor at Donghai University, and had just been transferred there to replace their original professor.
Because their old teacher passed away before the New Year.
Lin Han was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the door.
It really sounded like the sound of a lock being unlocked.
"Who's out there?"
For fear of waking up Jiang Mengyan, Lin Han did not open the door directly. Instead, he stood at the door and shouted in a low voice.
The people outside probably didn't expect that there was really a man here with Jiang Mengyan. They were so scared that their hands shook, something was dropped, and they ran away from the fire escape in a panic.
After hearing the footsteps disappear, Lin Han opened the door.
What was lying on the ground was actually a key mold opener.
The old-style anti-theft door of Jiang Mengyan's house can be keyed using this mold opener.
The other party must have been lurking here and chose this place to attack on purpose.
Lin Han couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.
If he hadn't arranged a blind date for Zhou Fan today, it would be hard to imagine what kind of situation Jiang Mengyan would encounter later.
However, Lin Han did not intend to tell her about this.
Just find a reason to ask Jiang Mengyan to move out tomorrow. There’s no need to tell her out loud and scare her.
After locking the security door again, Lin Han tiptoed to the bedroom door and listened.
The breathing sounds in the bedroom were long and distant.
Fortunately, she was not woken up.
Feeling relieved for the time being, Lin Han returned to the sofa and prepared to take a nap. However, not long after he closed his eyes, Jiang Mengyan's scream came from the bedroom:
“Lin Han…Lin Han…Ah!!”
