Chapter 535: Husband and Wife in Harmony—Weaning!

"Fine, you can be happy in secret," Yan Aohan said. He held the steering wheel with one hand and gently rubbed Zhu Yanyi’s head with the other.

"My hair is messy," Zhu Yanyi said, looking at her with a frown. She hadn’t cut her hair in years. It now reached her waist. Usually, she just braided it into a simple plait. It was easy and didn’t tangle.

"It’s okay. I’ll comb it for you," Yan Aohan said casually. "There’s an old saying: 'Hair tied together means a lifelong bond.' From now on, I will tie your hair for you."

"What are you saying?" Zhu Yanyi glared at her. But her direct words made her cheeks turn pink. "Is it right to say such things to a minor?"

"In ancient times, girls became adults at fifteen. You are almost fifteen. You are nearly an adult," Yan Aohan said with a serious face.

"That was ancient times. Now, we are adults at eighteen. If my birthday is early, I am nineteen in traditional age when I turn eighteen. If it is late, I am twenty," Zhu Yanyi said calmly. "Don’t try to trick me. I won’t fall for it."

Yan Aohan smiled lightly. "How am I tricking you? Even if I can’t tie your hair now, there will be a day. Our fate is already set." He raised his left hand to show her.

Zhu Yanyi tilted her head, looking at her. "I feel like you are hiding something. Tell me the truth. What is it that I don’t know?"

Yan Aohan smiled but did not answer. "You are still young. It is better not to know some things now. When you grow up, you will understand naturally."

Zhu Yanyi sniffed. "Why does that sound like a big trap ahead?" She tilted her head again. "Do you always set secret traps for your opponents?"

Yan Aohan laughed loudly. "Ani, you are the only one who makes me work this hard. Others don’t need so much effort from me." His tone was proud. He seemed born to stand above everyone.

Hearing this, Zhu Yanyi’s face felt hot. She patted her cheeks. "Should I say, 'It is truly my honor'?"

Yan Aohan laughed again. "I hope it is your honor." There was no humility in his words. Zhu Yanyi felt she was usually good at talking, but with Yan Aohan, she felt helpless. Whatever she said, he could block it. Forget it, she thought. I am a big-hearted girl. I won’t argue with him. She comforted herself silently.

Yan Aohan’s eyes held a smile. He hadn’t felt this relaxed in a long time. For years, he had worked hard at everything. He wanted to build a bond with this little girl sooner. Although she looked only fourteen, she knew more than many adults. If he didn’t build this bond now, she would become slippery like a loach when she grew up. Also, such relaxed time was running out. Thinking of this, his heart sank slightly. He only hoped her future path wouldn’t be too hard.

Zhu Yanyi looked around, then remembered something. "By the way, my sister has her college entrance exam in a week. Is everything okay on her end?"
