Chapter 396 - Im not Interested in Your Son (2/2)

Xia Ruoxin did not have an aggressive character. She opened the door and sent Song Wan off. The two had not said much to each other. Perhaps, Song Wan was satisfied with Xia Ruoxin's stance. Naturally, the one behind her should be satisfied, too.

As soon as Song Wan stepped out, she came face to face with a man and walked past him. He was wearing a white long-sleeved shirt with its sleeves rolled up casually at his elbows—a simple attire. However, instead of looking sloppy, he actually looked laid-back and handsome with one hand in his pocket. His eyes were extremely peaceful—not wavering in other directions, and his steps were steady. Although he looked tired, there was a clean and comfortable aura about him.

Song Wan couldn't help herself from giving the man another glance. She was not an old person dressed up as a teenager who had taken a liking for fresh meat. She was simply comparing this man with her own son.

He might not be as good-looking as her son Ah Lui, but he emitted an air of gentle presence. It would find it easier to get close to him as compared to that perverted son of hers. If, and she only meant if, Ah Lui and this man were to become rivals at love, it would be a tough fight between the two. She had no idea that her simple thoughts would ultimately come true, and the winner has yet to be revealed.

She was about to go on her way, but for some reason, she turned back. From a distance, she saw that man knocked on the same door to the house that she had just gone into.

Song Wan was shocked, and she started to imagine the numerous possibilities.

Did Xia Ruoxin know this man? Had he knocked on the wrong door? Or was he an insurance salesman? She took a few steps forward, unable to contain her curiosity, and hid at the corner to watch.

Xia Ruoxin opened the door for Gao Yi. Then, she took out his slippers and placed them on the floor for him. It was a routine action. However, it never ceased to fill Gao Yi with a sense of indescribable warmth and touch.

In fact, this was the home that he always wished for.

A kind and gentle wife to bring him tea when he was tired, to listen to him when he was feeling down, and to share his joy when he succeeded.

She would bring him his slippers, cook noodles for him, and made sure he has clean clothes. That was all.

”What are we eating?” He tidied Xia Ruoxin's slightly messy hair affectionately. He was hungry, too. He had performed an exhausting surgery which had lasted for several hours. He needed to replenish his nutrition and rest to recharge.

”Eat?” Xia Ruoxin blinked her eyes. Then, she suddenly remembered something.

Oh, no. She began to rub her forehead. ”I forgot to do the groceries. A guest came earlier. We spoke for a while, and I forgot about it.” She had to turn back without buying the groceries because someone had blocked her. Now, Gao Yi had returned so soon after the guest left. So Gao Yi had nothing to eat.

”Let's go and buy some now.” Gao Yi removed the slipper he had just worn and put on his shoes. Then, he took Xia Ruoxin's hand. ”Let's go together and buy groceries. It's also good I can be your free transportation.”

This means she had to use a forceful way out of a difficult situation, rather than a gentler solution.
