Chapter 636 - What was He Playing? (2/2)

Sorry, she really did not have any spare energy to argue with people.

Chu Lui walked over and stopped in front of the door.

”Thank you.”

”No problem.” Xia Ruoxin threw the two words lightly and left.

She still had the same temper. Chu Lui's smile was wiped away, and he rubbed his tired brows again. Indeed, he needed a good rest. He had not slept in two days. Even if his body was made out of iron, he could not resist anymore.

Moreover, he was not made out of iron. He was a human, a normal human.

Once his head hit the pillow, he fell into a deep sleep very quickly. Perhaps it was because there was her scent in the room, and his long-term insomnia was cured miraculously. With the light fragrance of flowers and the smell of roses, there was peace-loving and heart-warming… that was her scent.

In his sleep, the usual stern face he had started to look harmonious; and the lips that pressed together tightly usually curved upwards slightly.

When he woke up, it was almost nighttime. He sat up on his bed and habitually felt around for his bedside lamp. After touching around for some time, he could not feel anything until he finally realized something and woke up.

It turned out he was not at home anymore. He pulled at his clothes in disgust. He had worn this outfit for two days, and he was afraid it was going to turn moldy. He came here in a hurry so he did not bring much luggage with him, and he had only this set of clothes with him. Pulling over his sleeve to sniff, it was as if there really was a smell to it.

He had to go out and buy some clothes later. No, he still had to wear this first.

He opened the door and saw Xia Ruoxin setting the table outside.

All the bowls were set nicely.

One, two, three… four.

There were four bowls. There should be his.

No, there was still Rainy. He leaned against the door, and his stomach grumbled. Would he not even get a bowl of rice?

Gao Yi walked out while rubbing his neck; his gaze had met with Chu Lui's.

Both of their gazes were fighting in the air for God knew how long before they finally each kept their own.

”Mister, are you not going to come over to eat?” Wei Lan asked Chu Lui. Why was he still standing? Was he not hungry?

One was his. Chu Lui was happy for a moment and walked over in a hurry. However, he was a bit embarrassed as she did not know if other people could smell the moldy smell of his clothes.

Xia Ruoxin took out another dish and sat down. The four of them quietly ate their food. Even Wei Lan could feel that the atmosphere was a bit weird.

She was curious about Chu Lui's identity. She did not know where he came from; was he her son's friend or Ruoxin's? Why had they not mention him before? However, it was all thanks to him that Xiao Yi was fine now so she was truly grateful for him.

”This mister…”

Wei Lan wanted to say 'thank you', but she realized that she did not even know the person's name.

”My name is Chu Lui. Auntie, you can just call me Ah Lui.” Chu Lui knew what Wei Lan was going to ask so he took the initiative to introduce himself.

At the same time, the man and woman beside him made a face.

”Why are you pretending to be good?” Gao Yi said.

”What are you playing at?” Xia Ruoxin questioned.
