1878 You Don't Need to Care About His Attitude

Han Zhuoling was worried that she would not feel comfortable sleeping like this. They would need to wake up early in the morning tomorrow, so he let her lie sideways and adjusted her position before hugging her to sleep.

***

As she slept too much during the day, the next day, Shi Xiaoya really woke up very early.

Yet she did not expect that the moment she opened her eyes, she'd meet eyes with Han Zhuoling.

He looked like he woke up a long time ago. His eyes looked energized. Seeing that she woke up, his eyes crinkled into a smile.

"Morning." Han Zhuoling's voice was slightly hoarse.

"Morning," Shi Xiaoya said foolishly.

This was the first time the two of them slept until dawn and said "good morning" to each other.

At Survivor, it's true that Han Zhuoling would secretly go to her room.

But he would always leave before the sky turned bright.

So unlike now, wherein they were really sleeping together, waking up together, and saying "good morning" to each other.

"You've been awake for a long time already?" Shi Xiaoya asked.

So after he woke up, he had been staring at her like this.

"It's fine," Han Zhuoling said. "I slept too much yesterday, so I woke up earlier today."

"After I woke up, I saw that you were still sleeping. It was still too early just now, so I just watched you sleep," Han Zhuoling explained.

Watched her sleep…

What was there to watch when she was sleeping?

Before waiting for Shi Xiaoya to say anything, Han Zhuoling leaned in and planted a kiss on her lips, then said, "Not sleeping anymore?"

"I can't sleep anymore." When Shi Xiaoya saw Han Zhuoling's morning face, she felt an even deeper sense of intimacy between the two of them.

Shi Xiaoya quickly got up. Luckily, Han Zhuoling did not cling on to her without letting go. He actually let go of her so easily this time.

Shi Xiaoya quickly went to wash up and get herself ready before going to prepare breakfast.

Breakfast could be prepared very quickly and was not a hassle.

Up until they set off, Shi Xiaoya felt extremely nervous.

She wondered if Han Zhuoling felt the same way when he got nervous yesterday before reaching her house.

"Everyone in the family likes you." Han Zhuoling saw that Shi Xiaoya's nervousness was about to take over her. "Anyway, it's not your first time meeting them. The previous time when we met, they already knew how I felt towards you. That time, the elders in the family actually also had the intention of taking a look at you beforehand."

Unknowingly, she had actually passed the meet-the-parents round early on.

"But as for the attitude of one particular person, you don't need to care no matter what he's like." Han Zhuoling had recalled something and decided that he should tell Shi Xiaoya about it.

"Who?" Shi Xiaoya asked strangely.

"My dad." Han Zhuoling could not tell her about what Han Dongping did in the past in detail right now. "He's quite a snobbish person and only cares about getting benefits. I don't know why, but none of the elders in our family are like that. He's just that one exception."

"But his attitude, you don't need to care about it. Whether he likes you or not, or if he acts coldly, it has nothing to do with you personally. It always has something to do with his own interests. If he treats you coldly, don't take it to heart. If he's too friendly, just be more cautious and don't be so honest with him."

Shi Xiaoya never expected that there would be such a thing in the Han Family.

"Or else, why do you think he was not around when we went to the National Film Academy the previous time? It's because the two elders did not want him to come and make a scene. I didn't want that either. You don't need to be nervous. There's no other reason why I'm telling you all these, I just wanted to assure you that you don't need to take his attitude to heart and treat it so seriously."
