Let's Get Married novel Chapter 196

Lily is lying on her childhood bed while looking at the pink ceiling above her head. She also gets excited like the color, “Yes, I bought several couplets, stickers, and also lanterns. I’ll hang it at home later.”

The man’s voice over the phone pauses, “Are you going to plaster it in the Villa?”

“Yes, you didn’t want?” Lily simply fiddles it. Did he think it is too tacky to post something like that?

“I want,” Rex replies without thinking. However, no one has posted it before. There is only something strange in the novelty.

Every year his home is deserted. Thus, when it comes to Chinese New Year, he only feels that it is a lonelier day than usual. Thinking that she will decorate something this year, now he feels that New Year is actually quite interesting.

“When will you come back?” When he thinks of this, he could not help but want to see her.

Lily speculates the time, “After dinner, maybe around seven o’clock. You’re not home, so I don’t feel like to be at home too.”

Seeing that she still does not get along with Marina, they might not play any wicked trick.

“Then I’ll pick you up.”

“Okay.” Lily suddenly turns into a good mood and soars up from the bed to sit straight, “My mom said that she’s going to cook dumplings for dinner. I’ll bring some for you.”

Rex has just finished a meeting and has not eaten lunch yet. High-intensity of work has also suppressed his appetite. However, he becomes a little hungry after hearing this sentence. The sharp black eyes are no longer fierce and show a hint of a smile, “Am I going to taste my mother-in-law’s skill soon?”

Only a sentence and Lily’s face has blushed until her neck. She does not have that intention….

“I…”

“Looks like you’re eager to introduce them to me.” Rex interrupts her, deliberately misinterprets her meaning, “Why, are you anxious that I’m going to meet them?”

“It’s not like that!” Lily thinks he has really misunderstood, and explains hurriedly, “I just remember you and intended to bring you some, I don’t mean anything else!”

“You don’t have to be so embarrassed to admit it to me, I can understand.”

What the hell!

She really does not have this idea, she is just coincidentally thinking him, okay?

Lily feels like there is nothing she can do to clear her name. Thus, she gives up by shutting her mouth to stop explaining. Anyway, no matter how she explains, she still determines that she thought so.

“Up to you, I won’t care.”

Listening to her tone, Rex seems to be able to imagine her expression at this moment. His thin lip hooks up and forms a smile where she cannot see, “See you tonight, my little housekeeper.”

After he finished, he hangs up without giving her a chance to respond. …

Housekeeper?

Well, she has another nickname.

Even though it is not very nice, the tone he used is very gentle. Lily’s mouth is unpleasant, but her heart has long rolled into a ball of plasticine, which is softly yet stickily shapeless.

She is lying and is dazing off on the bed when the door is knocked twice from the outside out of sudden. It is Bree. “Lily, come out. The meal’s ready. Your dad has prepared one for you.”

Lily then puts away her phone and gets out of bed to put on her shoes hastily, “Okay, okay, coming!”
