CHAPTER 401: CHAPTER 411

"Hmm."

Mia Ginger glanced at him, being extremely obedient.

She went back to the bedroom, and after a little while, finished washing up and went to the dining room.

There was underfloor heating in the house. She wore a creamy white sweater paired with jeans, not feeling cold at all.

Koa Jackson wore even thinner clothes.

A gray crew-neck sweater, as simple in design as could be, paired with black pants. He stood with his back to her, facing the cooking counter, making his posture appear even taller and more straight, his focused profile as elegant as a painting.

Slices of toast were in a plate, and he was fully absorbed in frying bacon.

For the first time, Mia discovered that watching someone prepare breakfast was a kind of enjoyment, making her feel happy.

However—

She was a woman, Koa Jackson was a man.

Isn’t preparing breakfast supposed to be a woman’s task?

Mia silently blushed.

Feeling a bit embarrassed.

On second thought, she felt she couldn’t be blamed.

Koa Jackson’s breakfast mostly consisted of bread, fried eggs, and coffee, which were entirely mismatched with her.

Her breakfast since childhood was mostly buns, fried dough sticks...

Habits differed.

She frowned while thinking, completely unaware that ever since they got together, her habits had already changed because of Koa Jackson.

Without any transition period.

"What’s wrong?" Koa Jackson brought over two plates, noticed her frowning and staring blankly, and asked with concern, "Do you feel uncomfortable? Is it painful?"

"A little bit," Mia snapped back to reality and smiled.

She was somewhat frail, often feeling pain, but it was never to an unbearable extent.

With Koa Jackson expressing such concern, how could she possibly feel pain?

She sat on the chair sideways.

Started eating breakfast properly.

But, unlike Koa Jackson, she didn’t use knife and fork methodically.

Instead, she used chopsticks to pick up food directly.

Koa Jackson didn’t mind her at all, occasionally glancing over, even finding her tilted-head posture inexplicably cute.

Indeed...

He felt like it was about time.

He should formally introduce this girl to the old master.

——

Mia had a rather pleasant weekend.

She was on her period.

Koa Jackson didn’t let her do anything, making her practically wait for handouts.

During the day, Koa Jackson studied in the office; she followed along, reviewing exam essentials very close to him.

During breaks, Koa Jackson drank coffee.

He prepared hot milk for her.

Life was tranquil and beautiful.

She clung to him, seemingly able to let go of all her worries.

But unfortunately—

Days of leisure are always short-lived.
