My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 126: Something feels off

Chapter 126

Chapter 126: 126: Something feels off
The next morning, Cen Jin got up early. Ms. Qin was surprised to see she was already washed and dressed, and even looked at the wall clock in the living room, thinking it was broken, and asked in surprise, "It’s only 7:20, why are you up so early today?"
Normally, she would get up around eight, and leave the house between eight thirty and nine. Even on busy days recently, she would leave around eight.
Cen Jin pulled out a chair and sat down, a bright smile on her face as she took a sip of steaming soy milk. "Perhaps I slept early last night! Once I woke up, I couldn’t get back to sleep."
Ms. Qin brought over some boiled eggs, rested her hands on the table, and looked at her. "Did you find money or win the lottery? I noticed something different when you came back yesterday."
"What’s different?" Cen Jin glanced at Ms. Qin with dissatisfaction, muttering her question back, but the smile on her face didn’t fade.
"I can’t quite say, just feels like you’re as happy as a two-hundred-pound silly child. What are you so happy about?" Ms. Qin pondered for a moment, and after a while, finally came up with a more fitting description.
Upon hearing ’two-hundred-pound silly child,’ the smile on Cen Jin’s face vanished instantly, and she glared resentfully at Ms. Qin. "Can’t I be happy? Do you want to see me moping around every day?"
"Not at all."
"Then there you go." Cen Jin pouted, reached for an egg and peeled it, popped a piece into her mouth, took another sip of soy milk, and after finishing the egg, checked the time and said, "I’m off now."
"You’re just eating that little?"
"Mm, I’m full."
"Just a cup of soy milk and an egg filled you up? What kind of full is that!"
"I’m really full."
"Are you coming back for dinner tonight?"
"Not sure, I’ll text you. You should rest at home today and not go to the shop." Cen Jin walked to the door, changed her shoes, and before leaving, she didn’t forget to point at Ms. Qin, solemnly instructing her.
Ms. Qin nodded with a helpless smile. "Alright, I got it. Are you taking a cab yourself or going with Bai Zhou?"
"With him." When mentioning him, a sweet and soft smile appeared in Cen Jin’s eyes, and after saying this, she turned and went straight out of the villa gate.
After leaving her own yard, Cen Jin paced outside for about a minute, contemplating whether she was too excited and eager. It’s still thirteen minutes to eight; he might still be having breakfast!
She hesitated on whether to knock on his door but feared he might notice her impatience, which would be embarrassing.
As she dawdled into the third minute, Cen Jin had already reached his yard gate, just about to go in, when suddenly the villa door was pushed open, and a tall and upright handsome figure appeared in her view.
Basking in the gentle morning sunlight, a warm and brilliant smile spread across Cen Jin’s exquisite features, soothing her once anxious heart as soon as she saw him. Her grip on her bag gradually relaxed, and her sweet and elegant voice drifted towards his ear with the gentle morning breeze: "Morning."
Jiang Baizhou gazed at the slender hand illuminated by golden sunlight; his cold and dark eyes gradually softened, and the corners of his mouth curved distinctly as he walked up to her with long strides, cradled her slender waist with his long arm, and lowered his head to place a gentle kiss on her lips. "Mm, morning."
