Chapter 259: Can You Try to Love Me?

Return to the apartment.

Shang Wujue was waiting on the sofa.

Xia Yun went into the room and packed two sets of clothes, two sets of home clothes and underwear, and put them in a small bag.

Shang Wujue saw that she had only packed a few things: "Is that all?"

Xia Yun: "Well, I won't be staying for a few more days. After you return to the army, I'll move back here. It's convenient for commuting."

Shang Wujue frowned, feeling something was wrong, but he had no reason to object.

On their way back to Banshan Manor, Xia Yun received a call from her mother: "Xiao Yun, bring Ajue back for lunch. I asked the kitchen to prepare it. We were in such a hurry yesterday that we didn't even have a meal together."

Xia Yun thought about it and agreed.

After hanging up the phone, he turned to look at Shang Wujue: "My mom asked us to go back for dinner. Are you free? If not, I'll go back by myself."

Shang Wujue was not happy: "Just because I don't have time, you won't let me go?"

They were newly married, so wasn't it normal for him to accompany her back to her parents' home? He seemed so cold-blooded.

Xia Yun: "Going home for dinner is not a big deal. If you have something else to do, you don't have to go."

She herself didn't want to go.

Shang Wujue was depressed for a while: "I'm fine."

Xia Yun: "Is that so? Then let's go together?"

"Um."

Shang Wujue changed direction at the intersection.

Xia's mother was waiting at the door early. When she saw their car coming, she went to greet it.

Shang Wujue got out of the car, paused, and called out, "Mom."

It’s a little bit strange, but it’s not something I can’t shout out.

Mother Xia smiled from ear to ear: "Hey, Jue, come in quickly."

Shang Wujue nodded and walked into the house first.

Xia's mother was walking side by side with Xia Yun behind.

"Xiao Yun, your grandfather is here today too. He's very happy to know that you and Ajue are getting married."

Xia Yun didn't say anything.

After entering, Xia Yun greeted Old Man Xia and went to the kitchen to help.

Shang Wujue accompanied Xia's father and old man Xia in talking.

Shang Wujue is from the Shang family and is very capable. Old Master Xia has always liked him to be his grandson-in-law, but good things take time and he has to wait until now.

Xia Yun was helping in the kitchen and could hear the laughter of her grandfather and father from time to time.

They hadn't been this happy in a long time.

Shang Wujue pleased them very much.

During the meal, her father and grandfather treated her much better and asked her a few questions proactively.

Such a harmonious scene has not been seen for many years.

Because she was a girl, her mother was unable to give birth to a boy for the Xia family due to health reasons. Her grandfather was very unhappy. Her father didn't say anything, but his attitude showed dissatisfaction.

If she wasn't the only child in the Xia family, she wouldn't have been the one to inherit the clinic.

She had noticed since she was a child that her grandfather and father didn't like her, and her mother didn't like her very much either because she felt guilty about the Xia family.

But there were servants at home, so her life was okay, except that she didn't receive much care.

As she got older, she stopped looking for a boyfriend and rejected all the blind dates introduced by her family.

Her family was increasingly dissatisfied with her, and she was basically scolded every time she returned home.

Grandpa, father and mother took turns scolding.

So she moved out and didn't go back to the Xia family unless necessary, and only came back during holidays.

This home doesn't have much warmth for her.

She has no lingering memories or nostalgia.

Shang Wujue found that Xia Yun was eating quietly on the side, basically not talking and not picking up much food.

He frowned and picked up a piece of fish and put it in her bowl.

Xia Yun turned his head to look at him, and something flashed in his eyes.

She quickly lowered her head and continued eating.

As soon as they finished their meal, Shang Wujue pulled Xia Yun away.

The car drove for a while and suddenly stopped. Shang Wujue opened the door and got out.

Xia Yun watched him walk into a dessert shop and come out with a box after a while.

Shang Wujue handed the box to her after getting in the car.

Xia Yun was flattered: "For me?"

"Well, it seems you didn't eat much just now."

Xia Yun was a little touched: "Ajue, thank you."

"Eat it."

"Um."

Xia Yun opened the box, scooped a piece with a small spoon and put it in his mouth: "It's so sweet! Ajue, you should have one too."

She scooped a piece of cake and put it to Shang Wujue's mouth. Shang Wujue didn't like sweets, but when he saw Xia Yun's bright eyes, he still opened his mouth.

"Is it tasty?"

"Um."

Shang Wujue responded.

Xia Yun ate a spoonful himself and then fed another spoonful to Shang Wujue.

The two of them quickly finished a piece of cake and Xia Yun put the box away.

She turned her head and looked at the man who was driving seriously: "Ajue, can you try to love me?"

Shang Wujue glanced at her quickly, and the woman looked at him with a smile and anticipation.

Shang Wujue's Adam's apple rolled, and he felt a little distressed.

Spit out one word: "Okay."

Xia Yun's eyes were suddenly filled with twinkling lights.

She believed in Shang Wujue. He was a man of his word. If he said something, he would do it.

Although loving someone is not something you can learn just by wanting to, but with Shang Wujue's temperament, they will probably be tied together for life. That's good enough, isn't it?

"Ajue, I want to go shopping."

"ah?"

Shang Wujue couldn't keep up with Xia Yun's speed for a while.

"Why do you suddenly want to go shopping?"

Most men don’t like shopping, it’s a torture, and Shang Wujue feels the same way.

But facing Xia Yun, he couldn't say no.

"good."

…

The two walked into the mall together and saw a coffee shop. Xia Yun pulled him in and ordered a cup of coffee for Shang Wujue.

"Wait for me here with your coffee, I'll come see you soon."

"I'll go with you."

What was the point of letting her go shopping alone? Although he didn't like it, he couldn't do it.

Xia Yun pushed him to sit on the chair: "No, just follow me. I'm not used to it. Just wait here for me. I'll be back soon."

Shang Wujue saw that Xia Yun really didn't want him to follow, so he didn't force him.

…

Xia Yun came back about half an hour later, carrying a bag that seemed to contain clothes.

Shang Wujue took the last sip of coffee and stood up: "Can we go now?"

Xia Yun nodded.

The two returned to the Banshan Manor.

Xia Yun carried the clothes upstairs.

The cloakroom was empty and Shang Wujue didn't have many clothes.

Xia Yun found a random place to hang up the clothes.

After taking a look at the bag in her hand, her face flushed and she stuffed the bag into a corner.

Shang Wujue met Qiao Doudou outside, so he picked her up and played with her without going into the house.

Xia Yun also walked over after going downstairs.

When Qiao Doudou saw Xia Yun, she giggled and stretched out her arms towards her.

Shang Wujue raised his eyebrows: "Doudou, now that you have an aunt, do you no longer need your uncle?"

Having said that, he still put Qiao Doudou in Xia Yun's arms.

Xia Yun hugged him carefully: "He loves to laugh! So cute!"

Shang Wujue: "He likes you."

The couple took Qiao Doudou around the estate.

Sister Zeng had some free time, so she took a break.

Qiao Bei returned home and didn't see Qiao Doudou: "Sister Zeng, where's Doudou?"

Sister Zeng: "The Second Young Master and the Second Young Mistress took them away."

Qiao Bei laughed out loud: "Alright, let them feel how cute the baby is and have one quickly."
