Chapter 786 The Agreement Boyfriend is Also a Boyfriend

Chapter 786 A Contract Boyfriend is Still a Boyfriend

Leyan came out of her house wearing a thick pink down jacket and cartoon cotton slippers that she hadn't had time to change out of in her haste to leave.

The intermittent sounds of firecrackers and fireworks in the village could not drown out the pounding of her heart.

With her phone still in her hand, she walked briskly through the lights of houses toward the big banyan tree.

Leyan has walked through this narrow alley countless times in her life, but never before has she felt it to be so long.

Stepping out of the alley, you enter the ring road around the village, where the streetlights cast shadows on Le Yan's delicate face.

Le Yan stopped and looked into the distance with her phone in hand—

Beneath the banyan tree, a figure with an imposing presence stood like a sturdy pine.

The sea breeze was strong in the coastal village, and the man wore a long black overcoat, the hem of which fluttered in the wind.

The red light from the small lantern illuminated the man's handsome, sculpted face, his long, narrow eyes as deep as ink.

This scene was deeply imprinted in Le Yan's heart.

Years later, whenever she recalls that day, her heart still flutters.

Fu Nian'an saw her too and waved to her.

Le Yan's eyes lit up, and she ran a few steps forward, but then she realized something and slowed down her pace with composure.

But the slower her steps, the faster her heart beat. Her eyes were fixed on Fu Nian'an as she walked closer to him step by step.

Fu Nian'an stood still, watching the girl in the pink down jacket and cartoon slippers slowly approach her.

My first thought was: I'm still too inexperienced.

"Mr. Fu."

Le Yan approached Fu Nian'an, took a deep breath to calm her excited emotions, and then asked softly, "You, why are you here?"

Fu Nian'an's deep eyes held a faint smile, "I promised to give you a New Year's gift."

Le Yan's cheeks, which had been stinging from the cold wind, suddenly felt hot.

The red light of the small lantern seemed to instantly blush her delicate, youthful face. She gazed into Fu Nian'an's bright, sparkling eyes, which held only Fu Nian'an in them.

She was secretly overjoyed, but pretended to be reserved on the surface.

"You, didn't you say you'd send it to me? Beicheng is so far from here, and you even made the trip yourself..."

Fu Nian'an saw the girl's shy and clumsy attempt to cover up her feelings, but she didn't find it contrived; she only found it adorably innocent.

His voice was warm and deep, "Logistics companies are all on holiday for the Chinese New Year."

Le Yan lowered her head and covered her face, "Then, then I can send it after the New Year."

"Miss Yue doesn't seem to be very welcoming?" Fu Nian'an raised an eyebrow slightly. "Then shall I leave?"

"Huh?" Le Yan looked up abruptly, momentarily stunned, then quickly realized what she meant and said, "No, no, that's not what I meant. I just felt bad that you came all this way, especially on New Year's Eve, a day for family reunion. You should have been celebrating the New Year with your family..."

"One more year won't make a difference." Fu Nian'an patted the top of her head. "Didn't you say you'd treat me to a family reunion dinner?"

His interruption distracted Le Yan, and her thoughts drifted away again. "That's right! The food is getting cold. Mr. Fu, come home with me."

"Wait a moment." Fu Nian'an went around to the back of the car and opened the trunk. "Come and help."

Le Yang responded.

When I got to the back of the car, I was stunned to see what was in the trunk!

"so much!"

"Since it was my first visit, I didn't know what to prepare, so I bought a little bit of everything."

“You…” Le Yan looked at the gifts, her face contorted with worry, “People will misunderstand and think my boyfriend is visiting my parents.”

Fu Nian'an raised an eyebrow slightly, "Isn't a boyfriend under contract still a boyfriend?"

"Huh?" Le Yan's mind went blank again, staring blankly at Fu Nian'an.

Looking at Fu Nian'an, it was impossible to guess his thoughts from his consistently calm and handsome face.

I don't know if he was joking or serious.

What kind of boyfriend goes to such lengths for a contract?

"Take these gifts first. Your gift is in the back seat. We'll come out and get it later."

"Oh, okay!" Le Yan nodded obediently, completely dizzy and unable to think straight.

Furthermore, the fact that Fu Nian'an appeared in her hometown on New Year's Eve was already the biggest and best New Year's gift for her.

...

Fu Nian'an prepared far too many gifts.

The two of them carried loads of goods in both hands.

Le Yan was very fortunate that it was New Year's Eve, when all the villagers were having their reunion dinner. She walked down the alley without encountering anyone. Otherwise, Fu Nian'an's behavior would have definitely attracted a lot of attention!

That's how small villages are; everyone knows each other and greets each other when they meet. When they see outsiders, they immediately ask questions. Le Yan is worried; what should she say if someone asks who Fu Nian'an is?

Should I just say he's my boyfriend?

It feels a little embarrassing...

Le Yan led Fu Nian'an into the alley, muttering to herself the whole way.

Leyan stopped right in front of her house.

Fu Nian'an glanced at him subconsciously.

The small two-story house has a large courtyard. The courtyard wall, simply built with granite, is less than two meters high. The gate is made of stainless steel and decorated with Spring Festival couplets.

It has a strong festive atmosphere.

Le Yan reached out and pushed open the door. With a creaking sound from the stainless steel door, Le Yan turned around, looked at Fu Nian'an, and hesitated to speak.

Fu Nian'an looked at Le Yan through the overhead lamp.

The girl's expression was conflicted.

Fu Nian'an knew what she wanted to ask, leaned slightly forward, and spoke in a deep voice in her ear, "You want to know how to introduce me to your family?"

Le Yang nodded!

Fu Nian'an smiled and said, "Do you think there's anyone more suitable to bring home than your boyfriend on a day like today?"

Le Yan: "!!!"

"Not suitable?" Fu Nian'an raised an eyebrow. "If you think it's not suitable, then I..."

"I didn't say it wasn't appropriate!" Le Yan hurriedly interrupted Fu Nian'an. "I was just afraid it would affect you."

"Affect me?" Fu Nian'an asked, puzzled. "Affect me in how?"

Le Yan looked at him and smiled awkwardly: "My brother Sheng dotes on me. If you really come to visit as my boyfriend, then my brother Sheng might test you."

Do you think I won't pass the test?

“Not really…” Le Yan scratched her head, feeling troubled, as if nothing she said was right.

Just then, a deep, slightly hoarse male voice came from inside the room: "Yang Yang?"

Le Yan was stunned for a moment, then stared wide-eyed at Fu Nian'an.

Fu Nian'an was amused by her expression: "Miss Le, the way you look, anyone who didn't know better would think we're having an affair."

Le Yan: "..."

"Relax, I can handle this." Fu Nian'an patted her head, stood up straight, and raised an eyebrow at her, saying, "Girlfriend, lead the way."

Le Yan touched her burning cheeks with both hands, took a deep breath, and turned to walk inside.

"Brother Sheng, I'm back!"

Fu Nian'an followed Le Yan in.

Upon entering the house, the aroma of food immediately wafted towards us.

A middle-aged man in a dark gray padded coat was bending down to set out bowls and chopsticks. "It's almost time to eat! Why are you still running around? Did you go next door to play with those little rascals next door again? How old are you? Don't be so playful. Come and eat..."

As they were talking, the man looked up and was surprised to find that Le Yan had another man with her.

Fu Nian'an met Shang Linmin's gaze with a humble nod.

Lin Minsheng, an honest man, was stunned on the spot.

Le Yan had anticipated this reaction. She immediately stepped forward, grabbed Lin Minsheng's arm, and gently shook it: "Brother Sheng, his name is Fu Nian'an, he's my..."

Leyan was still a little embarrassed to say the words "boyfriend".

Lin Minsheng looked at his daughter's shy expression, then turned to look at Fu Nian'an.

Although he was just a poorly educated rural fisherman, Fu Nian'an's undeniable aura and noble attire exuded his prestige.

Lin Minsheng immediately thought of what he had heard before about wealthy businessmen in the entertainment industry having affairs with female celebrities...

My heart sank.

His expression even turned serious.
