Xia Xi spent three days feeling uneasy. These three days were no different from the peaceful days before.
Ever since she met Xu Yanfeng again in the hotel, she was worried that he would come to her again and ask about the child.
How should she face it then?
As the heir to the Xu Group, Xu Yanfeng is fully capable of getting everything he wants, but she is afraid... that she will not be able to keep the child.
In the evening, Xia Xi drove out to the home furnishing store to choose furniture.
Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival. She came out of the home furnishing mall and went to a nearby supermarket to buy mooncakes and various ingredients. She planned to cook by herself tomorrow to show off her cooking skills to her mother and grandmother.
They haven't tasted her cooking yet.
I can’t say much about other things during these years abroad, but my cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds in order to take care of the children. You can tell by the way the two little ones are growing as strong as calves.
Carrying two large bags of food, Xia Xi's phone rang in the bag. She quickly walked to the parking space, opened the back door, put the things in, then took out her phone and pressed the answer button: "Mom, what's the matter?"
"Um..." Su Jinru's tone was unnatural, "Where are you now?"
Xia Xi: "A supermarket near the Home Furnishing City."
"Your grandma said she wants to eat at a restaurant outside tonight. Do you think it's convenient for you?" Su Jinru said.
"No problem. Grandma, what kind of cuisine would you like to eat? I'll make a reservation at the restaurant first and then come back to pick you up."
"No, no need." Su Jinru refused repeatedly, stumbling over her words, "You and I...your grandmother has already chosen one. I'll send you the address of the restaurant, you can go directly there, and we'll take a taxi with the children later."
"Alright."
Xia Xi frowned slightly, thinking that her mother was a little weird.
She didn't think much about it. Not long after she hung up the phone, a message came in on WeChat. It was the restaurant location her mother sent her.
It's a newly opened Italian restaurant.
Xia Xi pressed her eyebrows. She was tired of eating Western food abroad and didn't want to eat it again after returning home. However, since her grandmother and mother wanted to eat it, she would accompany them.
She got in the car, entered the address into the car navigation, and started the car.

As you walk into the restaurant's revolving door, the gentle sound of cello echoes in the air and the air is filled with fresh and natural fragrance.
A waiter in a suit came over and asked how many people there were so that he could help her arrange a suitable table.
Xia Xi smiled: "Five, thank you."
The waiter gestured "please" and led her to a table for six.
The indoor lighting is slightly dim, the table is covered with a pure white patterned tablecloth, and a wide-mouthed glass vase is placed in the middle, with a bunch of fresh pink and white roses in clean water, creating a nice atmosphere.
However, this atmosphere does not seem to be suitable for family fun, but it is very suitable for couples to date.
The waiter brought the menu and poured Xia Xi a glass of lemonade.
"You go ahead and do your work. I'm waiting for someone. You can order later." Xia Xi explained the situation.
The waiter said "OK" and turned away without disturbing her.
Xia Xi was sipping water and flipping through the menu when she heard a sudden rustling sound from across the table: the scraping of chair legs against the floor. She glanced up and saw a man in his thirties. He was slightly overweight, about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a gray suit and a light blue shirt, and silver-rimmed glasses.
When Xia Xi looked over, the man's eyes lit up, he raised his hand to push up his glasses, and smiled politely: "Excuse me, are you Miss Xia Xixia?"
Before seeing the real person, he thought the photo was beautified, but now he knows that the real person is even more beautiful than the photo.
The woman had long, curly black hair, tied casually into a low ponytail with a simple black rubber band. Her skin was fair and clear, radiant even in the dim light. She wore only light makeup, but her features were bright and almost seductive, especially her lips, which were rosy and plump.
It looks like a red rose with thorns, tempting to pick it.
The man's Adam's apple rolled, and the joy in his heart expanded rapidly like an inflated balloon. His anticipation for tonight's blind date reached its peak.
He secretly made up his mind that no matter what, he would get this woman.
Xia Xi didn't understand the situation yet, and answered subconsciously: "Uh, I am. You must have gone the wrong way. There are people over here."
After hearing her say that she was Xia Xi, the man's smile brightened a little. He sat down steadily on the chair, extended a hand to her, and introduced himself: "Hello, Miss Xia, my name is He Xiaofeng, and Aunt Su introduced me here."
Xia Xi had never heard of Aunt Su or Aunt Li.
"Wait a moment."
Xia Xi seemed to have guessed what was going on, so she asked why her mother was hesitant when she called her just now. It turned out that she was planning a blind date.
She picked up the phone on the table and sent a message to Su Jinru.
Xixi: "Where did that He Xiaofeng come from?"
Su Jinru types slowly, and Xia Xi stared at the "Other party is typing" sign at the top of the screen, feeling a little annoyed.
How could her mother introduce her to someone without her permission!
He Xiaofeng retracted his hand somewhat awkwardly, pretending to be calm as he poured himself a glass of water. His eyes occasionally fell on the face of the woman opposite him. She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes like small fans, casting shadows under her eyelids. Her lips were slightly pursed, her brows were slightly furrowed, and even her unhappy expression was beautiful.
Imagining himself waking up to such a face every morning, He Xiaofeng couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
Su Jinru replied to Xia Xi's message: "Yesterday at your sister's wedding, there was an aunt named Su who got along very well with me. We added each other on WeChat. He Xiaofeng is her neighbor's son. He works in a large internet company. He is young, promising, handsome, and filial. Why don't you try to get along with him?"
