Lu Zixiao hadn't originally planned to buy too many things. He even wanted to take Xiaobao for a walk around the East District after leaving the supermarket, and then take the subway home leisurely.
But at this moment they were standing at the door, looking at each other in bewilderment at the bags full in their hands... and decisively hailed a taxi.
Things like fruits may not seem like a lot, but they are actually very heavy.
As soon as he got in the car, Lu Zixiao received a call from Lin Ze, "Are you done? We've already left."
"Yeah, I just finished my work and I'm so tired," Lin Ze complained with a sigh.
Listening to his tone, Lu Zixiao felt that this man seemed really tired, so he couldn't help but lower his voice, "Have you eaten yet?"
"I ate, I ate. I definitely had to eat," Lin Ze said with a playful smile. "After all, this is the lunch you and Xiaobao brought me from thousands of miles away. Not only did I eat it all, I didn't even give it to my dad when he wanted it."
"... Really stingy." Lu Zixiao smiled, "Is it delicious?"
"Delicious! So delicious!" Lin Ze said, "When will I be able to eat it again... Oh ~ It's so delicious!"
Lu Zixiao said calmly, "You're dreaming. Cooking and delivering meals would take an entire afternoon. How can I have that much time?"
"That's right," Lin Ze sighed, "Then I won't ask for more."
"But..." Lu Zixiao coughed lightly and muttered softly, "You can come to my house for dinner next time."
Xiaobao suddenly turned his head to look at him, and sure enough, the tips of his big brother's ears turned red again.
"Really?" Lin Ze became excited again. "Okay, okay, okay. If I'm hungry, I'll just go to your house to eat. You're so nice, baby!"
“…What are you yelling for!”
"Baby, baby, baby"
Lin Ze called out three times in a frivolous manner. When he realized that Lu Zixiao was about to hang up, he finally changed the subject, "Hey Zixiao! The supermarket has a lot of new imported fruits. Did you buy any?"
"I bought it," Lu Zixiao said, "but not too much."
Xiao Bao silently looked down at himself who was surrounded by the bag, then looked at his older brother who was lying calmly, and was speechless for a moment.
Lin Ze unconsciously raised the corner of his mouth on the other end of the phone and asked knowingly: "Why didn't you buy more? Are you embarrassed to take more when I'm not here?"
"It doesn't matter whether you're here or not," Lu Zixiao cleared his throat. "I just tried it and it tasted... average, so I didn't buy much."
Xiaobao once again recalled the man who had his eyes shining when he tasted the food in the supermarket just now...Big brother, have you been switched?
"Is that so..." Lin Ze stretched out his voice and said slowly, "Then tell me what you want to eat, and I'll ask my dad to buy some. I guarantee that next time it will be your favorite."
"No, no, don't bother uncle," Lu Zixiao said quickly, "The fruits today are quite good...really."
"Didn't you say it tasted just average?" Lin Ze teased him deliberately, "That means it's not very delicious."
"It's delicious! I didn't say it wasn't delicious!" Lu Zixiao said anxiously, "Okay, let's stop talking. The signal in the car is not good."
He didn't even wait for Lin Ze to reply and just hung up.
This time, even the driver looked at him through the rearview mirror with a confused look on his face, probably wondering why the signal was so bad in his taxi.
“Puff—”
Xiaobao finally couldn't hold back his laughter, and after he laughed out loud, he couldn't control it anymore. The whole little guy was shaking with laughter in the car seat.
"What's wrong, Xiaobao?" Lu Zixiao asked, "What are you so happy about?"
"Nothing, nothing." Xiaobao tried hard to suppress his laughter, but he found it was of no use.
He raised his watery eyes that curved into crescents and said softly, "Big brother, why are you so cute?"
Lu Zixiao: “……?”
Lin Ze had already returned to the office at this time. Looking at the call interface on the mobile phone screen that was suddenly hung up, he was not angry. Instead, he smiled with a doting look on his face.
"Um... little boss," the financial officer stammered, "Boss Lin asked you to sort out today's shipment and give it to him."
"Oh, I see." Lin Ze said nonchalantly, "I'll fix it later."
You have said this three times already!
The financial officer yelled in his heart, but couldn't help asking, "Boss, were you calling your sweetheart just now?"
Lin Ze was stunned for a moment, then responded frankly: "Yes, yes, sweetheart"
"You're smiling so happily, so it's true," the finance officer said with a smile. "Someone who cares about you so much must be very outstanding, right?"
"Yes, he's the best." Lin Ze hooked his finger at her and said, "Come here, I'll show you some nice photos."
The finance department's gossipy spirit was burning at this moment. He quickly trotted over, and when he saw Lu Zixiao's photo, he was stunned for several seconds.
"What's wrong?" Lin Ze raised an eyebrow and asked, "Can't accept it?"
"No, no, I can accept this," the finance officer waved his hands repeatedly, "I just didn't expect that you, young boss... would actually like such a heartless look."
Lin Ze tutted in dissatisfaction: "What do you mean by heartless? Look at these delicate features, these eyebrows, this little mouth, it's so beautiful!"
Finance: "...Yes, yes, it is very beautiful, I made a mistake, a mistake"
"But young boss, I still want to advise you to be a little more restrained. After all, not everyone can accept this right now. If someone with bad intentions makes a fuss about it, it will be bad for both of you."
"Well, I understand. I won't tell you for now."
Lin Ze nodded, but his eyes became firm, "Until I can truly protect him, I won't let any storm affect him."
