The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 1321

Yi Jinli replied, "Okay. You'd better go to bed now. Stop overthinking it."

"Well... I seem to be a little hungry," Ling Yiran said abruptly.

"Then I'll have someone make you some food," he said as he rose to his feet.

"No, it's late. It's not very nice to wake someone up just so they can make me food. Besides... I'm in the mood for some fruit soup. I'll just go to the kitchen and make it myself," said Ling Yiran.

"I'll make it for you," said Yi Jinli.

"You?" She was stunned.

"It's just fruit soup. It'll be quick," he said.

In the end, Ling Yiran left the bedroom with Yi Jinli and they went to the kitchen together.

Sitting in a chair at the kitchen bar, Ling Yiran could not stop the smile from appearing on the corners of her lips as she watched Yi Jinli take out some fruits from the fridge, peel them, cut them, and then make soup with them.

He seemed more approachable now. It was as if the gap between them was slowly closing. He no longer gave off that high and mighty feeling from before.

Ling Yiran placed her chin above her hands and looked at Yi Jinli who was busying himself. She liked the way things were right now very much. It was quiet and warm.

"Even if we’re just going to have a simple celebration, I still want to prepare a present for you. What would you like? You can ask for anything as long as I can get it," she said.

His eyelashes fluttered a little. "I... don't need any presents. Having you by my side is already the best present for me!"

"Is it because of my previous birthday... that you’re worried about yours?" Ling Yiran speculated.

He pressed his lips together and said nothing, so she knew she was right.

"Jin, I did have a pretty awful birthday, but we wouldn't have the present if some things hadn't happened back then. Maybe we’ve learned to cherish our time together more because we've lost it before," Ling Yiran said frankly.
