After a day in the house, she just wants to go out for a breath of fresh air!   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Nina changes her clothes for going out. She doesn&#8217;t make up and her hair is still wet, and then she goes straight down.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Next to the fountain downstairs, there is a tall and handsome man, who is holding a bunch of white rose and staring at her with a smile.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Lucien! Why are you back!&#8221; Nina&#8217;s face can&#8217;t help but burst into a big smile, and she runs towards him.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   When she is about to rush into his arms, she suddenly remembers that this is not at home, and then she stops.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Don&#8217;t play the pure girl!&#8221; Lucien stretches out his arm and takes her directly into his arms. His chin with stubble rubs her forehead, &#8220;Did you miss me?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   There is a passer-by nearby, glancing at the two embracing people out of the corner of his eyes. Nina is a little shy. She draws herself into Lucien&#8217;s arms, &#8220;Not telling you&#8230;&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;I&#8217;m sure you did. Hey, you were alone last night. You didn&#8217;t fall asleep, right? You must be missing me crazily, hiding in the quilt and crying all night. Tut, tut. Look, you have got dark circles under your eyes!&#8221; Lucien is very narcissistic.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Don&#8217;t flatter yourself!&#8221; Nina snatches the rose in his hand and takes a deep breath, &#8220;It smells good! How much is it?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Nina! Can you stop being so tacky!&#8221; Lucien takes a look at her powerlessly and pushes her out of his arms.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Nina looks at him and smiles, &#8220;Okay! Then I&#8217;ll talk about something elegant. Aren&#8217;t you coming back the day after tomorrow? Why are you back today?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lucien raises his wrist and looks at his watch, &#8220;Come on, move. I have only three hours to accompany you.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Three hours? What this means? Nina freezes.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lucien drags her to the underground garage, &#8220;I came here by the first flight. After three hours, I have to catch a flight back to Hartford for a meeting. You&#8217;d better hurry up, or we&#8217;ll miss the movie.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   What? Nina stops and pulls his sleeve, &#8220;You caught an early flight, and then turn back to Hartford at noon, just to come back and watch a movie with me?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   She looks up at him with tears in her eyes.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Don&#8217;t you really want to see the film?&#8221; Lucien raises his eyebrows, &#8220;Why are you looking at me so silly? You are stunned by my unshaven and masculine appearance, right?&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Tears trickle down her cheeks. Nina chokes and looks at Lucien, unable to speak.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   On his face, there are traces of staying up all night. His eyes are red-rimmed and bloodshot. The green stubble sets off the outline of his cheek more clearly. In the middle of his two eyebrows, there is a deep mark, which shows his fatigue.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   He stayed up to work and came early in the morning, just to watch a movie with her.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   This man is doting on her in his way. Nina&#8217;s starting to understand him, but she is very heartbroken.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Don&#8217;t cry, silly girl.&#8221; Lucien clumsily wipes her tears, rubs her hair, takes her into his arms, and walks with her to the garage.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Lucien, thank you!&#8221; Nina finally calms down and turns to look at Lucien, &#8220;Thank you for being nice to me. Thank you for loving me.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Lucien stands proudly, pointing to his lips, &#8220;Here.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Ah ha? Nina doesn&#8217;t react for a while.   <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, go downstairs!
