The man returned to such a natural posture.
Anika didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she didn't hate it.
Facing his teasing eyes, she suddenly remembered the first time she saw him after returning home.
It was at the bidding site of the North City Project, and Mrs.Stevens had unexpectedly won the project.
Perhaps from the beginning, it was his way to be near her.
‘Our family might be able to compete with the other families, but if Zac did his best, how could he not
win the North City project?’ It wasn't that she didn't have any doubts, but his comeback right now was
dispelling the last doubts in her heart.
He considered all her circumstances, but she never knew.
After pausing for a moment, her voice became stuffy, "Why are you treating me so well?"
"If I should not be good to you, to whom should I be good?"
Zac gently pinched her cheek.
"Nika, I said, don't underestimate yourself."
"As for me, I might love you more than you think"
‘So, you don't have to pretend anymore’ Anika's eyes were slightly hot.
She pursed her lower lips and whispered, "Zac, I want to ...hug you’ She was still a little embarrassed
to be so intimate.
The man raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "Have I ever said that you don't need to hesitate to act
clingy with me?’ Anika shook her head gently.
Zac's deep gaze fell on her face, and his lips curled into a chuckle, "Do you know now?"
The next second, she was embraced by the man.
Zac's slender jaw rested on her hair.
The tip of his nose was lingering around the refreshing and piercing pinewood fragrance on her body.
A faint mint smell mixed in and it made him relaxed.
After a while, Anika heard his deep voice.
"I still need someone to teach me how to act sweet.It gives me a headache"
The man’s words reminded her of her roommate when she was studying abroad.
In the eyes of her roommates, she was the mature one.
Zac was not someone who easily admitted defeat.
However, whenever he picked up his father's phone, he would naturally act coquettishly with his father,
causing everyone around him to be shocked.
Anika still remembered that when everyone teased her, her roommate replied, "No matter how mature
a girl is, she has the right to act playfully with her father anytime and anywhere."
Probably only children who grew up in love have the confidence to act playfully with their parents.
Anika felt that perhaps she also hoped that someone would love her unreservedly.
After a moment of silence, she was about to say something when a sudden noise interrupted her.
"Goo--"
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
The man let go of her helplessly and faced her smile that did not dissipate.
He snorted softly, "Nika, what are you laughing at?"
"Aren't I afraid that something might happen to you? I've been following you for a long time.You're lucky
that you ran to the bar to provoke my feelings, huh?"
Zac followed her in the afternoon.
He had indeed not eaten until now.
Now that he thought of the scene where he had just gone into the bar, his stomach started to grumble
again.
"What's so good about that kid who hasn't even grown all his hair? Do you really want to give your
Viber to him?"
He said in a clear voice.
The man's eyes were burning as he stared at her, his face was tense.
It was filled with relentlessness, and his words carried accusations.
For some reason, it inexplicably reminded Anika of the conversation about the black cat and the white
cat last time.
After a pause, she tugged at the corner of his clothes.
Then she stood on tiptoe and tried to kiss him on the cheek.
Zac's body stiffened and his throat slipped.
He dragged his voice and said, "Nika, just because you kissed me this matter would be over”
He did not forget that when that boy walked forward, Anika stared at the boy a few times.
"Nika."
The man lowered his eyes to look at her.
"Smile"
Anika then explained softly, "I just feel that his tiger-like fangs are very similar to yours, but you always
have a straight face and don't like to laugh at all."
Zac also had a small tiger-like tooth.
Occasionally, when he laughed happily, it was very attractive.
However, even when he was in high school, he could pull two hundred fifty thousand to eighty
thousand dollars and still rarely laughed.
"You look good laughing.’ Zac lowered his head and glanced at her.
After a long pause, he smiled generously at her.
Then, the man lazily said, "What, you blame me for laughing so well? You stared at me dumbfounded?"
Seeing her choking, Zac gently added, "You want to take advantage of me? There's no need to be so
tactful.You already had the privilege."
Anika was speechless.
In terms of shamelessness, she was incomparable to him.
She took a deep breath and changed the subject, "Aren't you hungry? Do you want to go to the
restaurant for something to eat?"
"I'm already too hungry.Can you give me some of the biscuits you brought?"
The man casually sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Anika walked into the bedroom upstairs, took out two packets of biscuits from her suitcase, and handed
it to him downstairs.
Zac slowly tore open the package and took two bites.
As if he remembered something, he rolled his eyes and looked at her, "Come here.”
He pointed to his side.
Anika walked to his side and sat down.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
The man glanced at her and said, "Here, do you want to hold it now?"
Zac's gaze stopped in her hand.
Anika instantly realized that he was still hating her for not letting him hold her hands.
She stretched out her hand.
He held her with a smile, clasped their fingers together, and his wedding rings overlapped hers
harmoniously.
The next second, the man slowly pulled out his phone.The camera focused on their two tightly clasped
hands.
He then took a picture, and then sent it to his friends with the caption "Heart."
Anika was dumbfounded, but she had nothing to say.
Although she felt that her actions were somewhat embarrassing, it was very strange to see his soft
temper.
Not long after, Tony's praise and a few more replies appeared in their group chat.
Tony: [No one is better than you.]
Deon: [He's so clingy.]
Finn: [That's sweet.]
Leo: [Woah.]
Anika did not have anything to say.
Zac looked at her without changing his expression and casually said, "Nika, are we official now?"
Anika paused slightly and nodded.
"Then--"
The man glanced at her.
"What about you?"
"Me?" Anika said.
She didn't understand what he meant.
Zac smiled and said, "What? Are you afraid of being seen by your so-called siblings?"
Anika suddenly realized that he also actually wanted her to imitate him and send it out to her circle of
friends.
It was also to clarify his changing behavior.
"No, she explained with a sigh of relief, "I haven't had much contact with Harold since I lived at Meyer's
Residence.
Furthermore, they're all married"
The man looked at her with a deep gaze, as if he was saying, "Then why are you hesitating?"
The questioning gesture made it seem as if she had some kind of secret to hide.
"I just feel awkward."
She sighed and paused for a moment before continuing, "And haven't you heard of it? Harold's love
situation...isn't very good"
As soon as she finished speaking, she met his slightly dim gaze.
Anika hesitated for a moment and whispered, "But I'll do it once.Is that fine?"
"Yes"
Zac raised his eyebrows and replied calmly.
Anika was speechless.
She helplessly took out her phone.
