Chapter 1207
Half an hour later, the takeaways were delivered by the deliveryman.
Leonardo, who had been screaming for food, ate the most. He finished two boxes of steamed rice alone, and the yellow hair on his forehead now seemed to be full of energy.
As soon as Anthea put down her chopsticks, Adam looked over to her. "Honey, have you finished it?"
"I'm full!" She nodded her head charmingly.
"Something is stuck on your lips!" Adam said.
Anthea blinked her eyes and asked, "Really? Where?"
Adam stretched out his hand and removed the rice grains from her lips with his fingers. Then, he took out a tissue and wiped it for her. His eyes were glowing with tenderness and care. He looked as patient and meticulous as he was taking care of her daughter.
Leonardo touched his bulging belly and felt very satisfied that he could eat so much food.
After putting down the chopsticks, Adam went into the kitchen again to do the washing work, and he asked Anthea and Leonardo to have a rest in the living room.
Leonardo turned his head to look at Adam who was busy washing in the kitchen. This was the first time for him to see Anthea and Adam interact with each other at home. It was just like a couple's daily life. And it could be seen that Adam really doted on Anthea.
Leonardo noticed that, since he entered their house, Adam had not asked Anthea to do anything.
This was actually what Leonardo wanted to see. He felt happy for Anthea, but at the same time, he was a little worried. The relationship between Anthea and Adam was destined to be hidden. If someday their relationship was known by others...
This day would come sooner or later, and Leonardo only hoped that they could get rid of all hardships at that time. Leonardo didn't want to think about it anymore. He asked casually, "Anthea, how's the recovery of your leg?" "The doctor said it's fine. But I need to keep on resting!" Anthea shrugged her shoulders.
"It will be the Spring Festival in a few days. Then, you're not going to return to the town? You want to stay here?"
"Yes." Anthea nodded. "They didn't want me to travel a long distance after they learned that I got injured. My parents are still in the village. I'll be the only one back in the town. Adam will take care of me here!" Leonardo exclaimed, "Your mother trusted Adam so much in leaving you to him!"
"Adam is a military officer!" Anthea said proudly.
Leonardo didn't like to see her showing off. He snorted and said, "Humph... A military officer is also a man. Aren't you afraid of being sexually harassed by him?"
Anthea stretched her left leg, and her face felt slightly hot.
At present, it seemed as if the more eager side was her, and she was more likely to sexually harass Adam...
Leonardo didn't know what Anthea was reflecting upon in her heart. Suddenly, he shouted, "Holy sh*t! You also have a game machine here?"
When Anthea began to settle down in this house, she had a plaster cast on her leg. It was winter, and most of the time she just stayed at home. Adam was afraid that she would feel bored, and therefore he specially bought her a game machine to kill time.
Before Anthea could answer his question, Leonardo jumped up from the sofa and took down the game machine from the TV cabinet. "It's the latest version! And the joysticks are the limited edition of DayOne! Hurry up, Anthea. Turn on the TV and accompany Young Master Schain to play some games... Wow... I haven't played this game yet!"
Whenever Leonardo saw a video game, his eyes would be shining!
Anthea held her forehead helplessly. She then turned on the TV for him.
Leonardo threw off his slippers, sat cross-legged on the carpet, and urged Anthea to play the video game with him.
After washing all the dishes in the kitchen, Adam went into the living room. He didn't want to disturb them playing games. He simply went back to his study to read military books. Anthea glanced sideways at Leonardo in a complaining manner.
As Leonardo became more and more immersed in the game world, Anthea felt more and more aggrieved.
The time went by quickly, while Leonardo had no intention of stopping. He was so obsessed with the video game.
Anthea looked at the clock on the wall and cried in a low voice, "Ah! It's almost eight o'clock. It's so late now. Golden Leonardo, don't play so many games. Go home quickly!"
Upon hearing that, Leonardo's lips twitched.
"It's just eight o'clock. Why did she say so late'?" He thought grudgingly.
However, Leonardo didn't complain about her. He was so attracted by the video game that he didn't even look at Anthea. His eyes were firmly fixed on the TV screen. "It's okay. I'm not in a hurry. I'll finish this round first!"
The corners of Anthea's eyes twitched.
She was so anxious that her heart was beating crazily, but she pretended to be calm. She turned to look at him. "Golden Leonardo, I have to give you some advice. Don't be so obsessive about video games. Otherwise, when will you be able to find a girlfriend? Besides, even if you can find a girlfriend, she'll dump you sooner or later if you play video games like this every day!"
"You know nothing at all. I'm always single because I'm outstanding and confident!" Leonardo arrogantly dangled the yellow hair on his forehead.
Anthea was speechless. She didn't know how to face such an outstanding and confident young man.
With patience, Anthea finally waited for him to finish this round of the game. Almost at the same time, she quickly stood up.
Anthea grabbed the joystick from Leonardo and
began to order him to leave. "Well... It's game over. Go home quickly. It's close to the Spring Festival, and there are many people, good people and bad people, walking on the street. It's safe to go back home early!"
Leonardo wanted to retorted that a real man like him was not afraid of danger. But before he could open his mouth, Anthea took up his coat which he originally placed on the arm of the sofa.
As Anthea's intention of driving him away was so obvious, Leonardo naturally had already seen through that she simply didn't want a third person to be there to interrupt the romantic atmosphere of she and Adam being alone. Leonardo could no longer insist on staying at their home all the time. He reluctantly bid farewell to Anthea.
Before he stepped out of the door, he was still complaining about Anthea in his mind.
"Anthea Lee, you're paying more attention to a lover than good friends..."
Ten minutes later, the sound of a door opening and closing came from the hallway.
Then, the sound of steady footsteps came near. Adam's tall and strong figure walked into the master bedroom. The cold air of the winter night seemed to be taken into the room by him. He had just finished seeing Leonardo off.
Anthea, who had already changed into pajamas and was leaning against the head of the bed, immediately looked up. "Adam, is the Golden Leonardo gone?"
"Yes." Adam nodded.
He looked into her eyes. He couldn't help but gasp.
Because his little girl was now looking straight at him at this time...
It was as if she was looking at a large plate of seafood!
Adam swallowed. His thin lips moved unnaturally and he said in an extremely low voice, "Anthea, I'll take a bath first."
"Uh-huh!" Anthea nodded repeatedly. After thinking about it, she urged him again, "Then hurry up..."
"1
"... Alright." The Adam's apple of him moved again.
As Anthea gazed at his back in excitement, Adam walked into the bathroom. His back seemed to be steady, but in fact, his feet were slightly trembling, also because of excitement.
When he came out of the bathroom, the lights embedded on the ceiling of the master bedroom had been turned off. There was only a bedside lamp on, and the lamplight shed on the big bed, looking like circles of ripples.
Among the ripples, Anthea had already crept into the quilt. Her two slender arms looked like lotus roots and were half-hidden in the sleeves of pajamas. Her waterfall-like long hair was scattered on the pillow, which made her look more beautiful and delicate.
Her big clear eyes were so innocent and charming. She almost looked like a siren lurking in the darkness but tempting to a man.
Adam felt dry in his throat, and his footsteps seemed to become heavier and heavier.
