Chapter 38

With a new home, Tang Xin Lian and her son were happy.

This residential building was very well guarded, so they didn’t have to worry about someone breaking in. This 200-square meter mansion that had 4 rooms, had everything someone needed. The furniture was already placed, and the only thing necessary was to move in some clothes.

Zhong Zhen Dong suggested letting Cheng Cheng transfer to the school in this neighborhood because it was nearby. Tang Xin Lian already decided early on to let her son transfer schools, and after listening to his suggestion, she consented without the slightest hesitation.

In addition, Zhong Zhen Dong gave her a credit card for her use, and also arranged a personal chauffeur for her. With a chauffeur, she didn’t have to ride a bus or subway when she left the house.

The mother and son pair began their new life. This morning, she came back carrying a bag of fresh vegetables and meat, which she just purchased from the food market.

She placed the bag on the dining table and was just about to sort it out when a person approached from behind her and stuck to her body. Two familiar hands embraced her waist.

“Where’d you go?” Zhong Zhen Dong’s chin rested on her shoulder, his voice husky from having just woken up.

“To buy groceries.”

“Doesn’t this neighborhood have a supermarket? Why tire yourself out and go all the way to a conventional supermarket?”

“That supermarket is too expensive.”

“What are you afraid of? I’ll pay for it.”

“I know you’re magnanimous, but if we can save in some areas, then we should save a little. Moreover, conventional supermarkets have fresher groceries and a larger variety – -” She looked distracted for a moment, and then turned to ask him, “How did you know I went to a conventional marketplace?”

“Isn’t that easy? The groceries you bought aren’t packaged with the supermarket logo. Only conventional supermarkets use these kinds of plastic bags.”

So it was like that. She didn’t think he would pay attention to these small details.

“I got you a driver, why didn’t you take the car?”

“I’m not used to it. It’s just buying some groceries, having another person carry it is strange.” After all, she wasn’t an upper-cla.s.s woman. She was accustomed to a simple life, and wanted to keep her habit of walking to the supermarket alone.

“This won’t do, letting you leave the house alone. What if you ran into a pervert? Next time, take the car okay?” Although his tone was gentle, it contained a trace of aggressiveness.

Ever since she stayed at his house, she felt his desires for her had become stronger. Not only did he like to help her shower, he also cared about where she went and what she did.
