Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
[He’s married, so of course he’s with his wife. Don’t forget about the time when he showed off his affection for his wife in the post.]
[Ah, the lost memories are starting to attack me. I’ve had enough of their display of affection!!]
She knew that her friends were focusing on the wrong thing, so she quickly sent a message:
[No, Mr. Su seems to be competing with his wife to catch a doll!]
Her message was like a stone hitting a thousand waves, and the girls in the group started:
[Are you kidding me!?]
[How childish, are you mistaken??]
The group was flooded with question marks.
No matter how surprised the passersby were, the doll catching competition was finally over.
Xi Wan narrowly defeated Su Xun with the advantage of a single doll.
“You didn’t go easy on me, did you?” Xi Wan asked.
At the beginning of the competition, she had seen Su Xun’s stance from the corner of her eye. She had thought that he was an experienced doll snatcher.
“No, I haven’t.” Su Xun shook his head. Indeed, he did not go easy on her.
Although he hesitated for a moment between ‘letting Xi Wan eat his dishes’ and ‘personally eating Xi Wan’s dishes,’ he remembered that he had never caught a doll before, so he could only do his best and leave it to fate.
“Then you have to admit defeat. You have to cook for me tonight!” Xi Wan said happily as she placed the doll into the temporary storage cabinet. She said seriously, “I should be able to look forward to your cooking, right?”
Su Xun stretched out his hand to protect her head, preventing her from being hit by the opened cabinet door. He was a little puzzled when he heard her words. “Looking forward to it?”
“Yeah,” Xi Wan nodded. “You’ve been abroad before, so you should have cooked before, right?”
Xi Wan looked at Su Xun as she spoke. She quickly got the answer from his expression, “Your expression tells me that you have never cooked before.”
When he saw her put the last doll into the cabinet, Su Xun closed the cabinet door and held her hand again, answering tactfully, “I’m not a person who values food.”
“Why?” Xi Wan looked at him.
Xi Wan would be the first to not believe that he had anorexia. She felt that Su Xun was purely uninterested in food.
However, this feeling was very strange.
Su Xun did not answer her immediately. Instead, he fell silent.
Xi Wan was just asking casually and did not need to get an answer. She did not want him to be in a difficult position, so she said, “I’m just asking casually.
Don’t mind me. You don’t have to tell me the reason.”
She took out her cell phone to look at the list that Chen Tong had organized. After swiping it to the bottom, she said, “There are a few scattered items. We’d better push a shopping cart.”
As she spoke, Xi Wan walked over to the shopping cart and prepared to push one out.
Su Xun caught up to her in a few steps and grabbed the armrest of the shopping cart almost at the same time as her.
From behind, it looked like he was holding her in his arms.
“I’m sorry.” Su Xun’s voice was very soft.
His hand that was holding onto the shopping cart’s armrest maintained some distance from Xi Wan’s hand, not rashly getting close to her.
Xi Wan did not ask him why he was apologizing. Her clear eyes sized him up from top to bottom. Her smiling eyes were extremely clear. She was like a spoiled child as she ordered him around, “Then I’ll punish you by making you push the cart!”
“Alright.” Su Xun heaved a sigh of relief.
He lifted Xi Wan up and placed her feet on the pole between the wheels at the back of the shopping cart. Both of her hands were holding onto the handles while he held onto the handles on both sides to protect her in his embrace.
This way, as long as he pushed the shopping cart, Xi Wan would be able to move with him.
“…” Xi Wan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at the child beside her who had been placed in the shopping cart by her father.
The child was talking to his father when he felt Xi Wan’s gaze and turned to look at her.
When he saw Xi Wan and Su Xun, the child was obviously stunned for a moment. Then, he turned his head and smiled secretly behind Xi Wan’s back.
Although Xi Wan could not see his smile, his shoulders that were shaking from laughing betrayed him.
“…” Xi Wan poked Su Xun’s arm.
However, Xi Wan did not expect that Su Xun would not let her down after seeing it. Instead, he whispered into her ear, “You’re cuter than him.” “…” Xi Wan fell silent and thought about it before replying, “Then should I thank you tor praising me?”
“You’re welcome.” When Su Xun saw Xi Wan’s expression, his mood actually became a little better..
