Chapter 1928: Yes, Bring Me Along As Well
An Lan felt that Xu Baohan would be able to remove his neck brace in a week at most, she probably wouldn’t need to stay for long, so she randomly just bought some.
However, Xu Baohan didn’t think so.
When An Lan was choosing a toothbrush, he chose the best one. The price made An Lan’s heart ache. “Judge Xu, we don’t need to buy such a good toothbrush.”
Xu Baohan lowered his eyes and thought for a while. “Indeed, I think we can buy an electric toothbrush. The one the salesman recommended seemed pretty good.”
“…”
An electric toothbrush seemed to be more expensive.
“Judge Xu, don’t you understand what I’m saying?” An Lan kindly reminded him.
“Lawyer An, I can’t let someone like you who frequently uses imported goods suffer,” Xu Baohan replied seriously.
An Lan and he stared at each other for a while, before finally saying in defeat, “Thank you, I like to work on my own, let’s use manual.”
“Lawyer An is really diligent,” Xu Baohan praised with a smile.
After choosing a towel, Xu Baohan took the liberty of choosing a large soft bath towel and a large soft towel for her. The similarity between them was that they were both expensive.
An Lan couldn’t stop him. “You really don’t have to buy such an expensive one. I don’t even use such expensive stuff at home.”
“Mmm, then you can stay at my place.” Xu Baohan looked at her meaningfully. “If you don’t use such expensive daily necessities, they will become moldy.”
An Lan finally understood. No wonder he was choosing expensive ones for her. So that was the plan.
This cold and aloof man was really sly and cunning.
“That makes sense. Then I’ll take them away after I take care of you,” An Lan said as she patted his waist. “It would be a pity not to use such an expensive item after a few times.”
“Yes, that’s right. Take me along too,” Xu Baohan replied readily. “You’ve used me too. It would be a pity not to take me with you.”
An Lan was stunned for a moment before her face turned red. “When have I ever used you?”
Indeed, one shouldn’t be so slandering.
“I’ve warmed your bed.” Xu Baohan stopped and stared at her. “I’ve been warming your bed at the hospital these past few days.”
“I was taking care of you, alright?” An Lan was shocked by his shamelessness. “If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have stayed overnight with you at the hospital. Besides, who would need you to warm bed in this weather?”
“The air-conditioning is on in the hospital and it’s cold,” Xu Baohan continued, “And you’re right, you’ve been taking care of me, cooking for me, peeling fruits for me and delivering meals every day. If it wasn’t for you, I might have starved to death in the hospital, so when I’m fully recovered, I have to give myself to you.”
An Lan raised her hand. “It’s not so exaggerated, it’s impossible to starve to death. There are people from the dining hall pushing food carts to deliver bento box meals at the entrance of the ward everyday, you definitely won’t starve to death.”
“No, I’ll starve to death.” Xu Baohan lowered his head and gazed deeply at her, his lips curling into a faint smile. “These few days, I don’t want to eat anyone else’s food besides yours, and I don’t want to make do with it.”
An Lan’s heart skipped a beat. She raised her head and patted his chest impolitely. “Judge Xu, where’s your face?”
“Here.” Xu Baohan grabbed her hand and placed it on his face.
An Lan was speechless.
As a lawyer, one would only be at a loss for words in front of a judge.
Xu Baohan looked at her defeated expression and smiled. “Lawyer An, don’t forget, your law firm has always lost when it’s in my court. If you want to win, there is only one place that has a chance.”
“Which place?” An Lan was puzzled.
Xu Baohan moved closer to her and whispered two words into her ear.
