Su Yuluo.
For more than six years, this name has been the deepest pain in Xianmingyu's heart.
Her sudden departure back then didn't even involve a farewell. They didn't break up or make a clean break; she simply vanished into thin air. If it weren't for the fact that he learned from his grandfather a few months ago that she had married and had children, and those undeniably real photos and videos, would Xianmingyu have even considered maintaining a lingering connection with her?
Now that Fang Peiru brought it up again in this way, Xian Mingyu's heart ached terribly, as if a wound he had tried to bury had been stabbed again.
“Mom, Bai Xiaoruo is Bai Xiaoruo, and Luo’er is Luo’er. Whether in the past or now, I am not looking for someone similar to her because of Luo’er’s departure. No matter how much you dislike Bai Xiaoruo, I have made my position clear here today. From the moment I agreed to marry Bai Xiaoruo, I will take responsibility for her and fulfill the responsibilities of a husband. She is my wife and my important other half. No one can change that.”
After speaking, Xian Mingyu turned around and went straight upstairs.
No matter how much Fang Peiru stomped her feet and screamed downstairs, he didn't turn around again.
"I'm so angry! That damn brat! I've raised him for nothing, and I'm still not as good as that wild girl! In a few years, if she really has a child, won't she be able to trample on me?"
"Alright, alright, don't be angry. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Besides, I don't think Xiao Ruo is as bad as you say. We just don't know her very well. If Ming Yu likes her, let him be. Besides, he's all grown up now. It's his own decision about his love life." Xian Shaodong comforted his wife, seeing her face turn red with anger.
It's rare for my son to come home, but he leaves with such an argument. Over the years, because of Su Yuluo, we haven't had a proper conversation, and our relationship has deteriorated.
"What do you mean by his own relationship problems? What does he know? I really don't understand what he's thinking. The women he's eyeing are all from shady, messy families! If I hadn't helped him vet them, would they have been reliable?" Fang Peiru was furious. She had raised her son for over twenty years for nothing. Although she hadn't seen him often and spent much time with him, he was still her precious child, whom she had carried for ten months and given birth to with great difficulty. It was as if she was just giving him away. If Xian Mingyu continued to be with Bai Xiaoruo, wouldn't he one day have to turn against them because of her?

After finishing breakfast, Bai Xiaoruo went upstairs to read.
After reading for a while, she got a little tired, so she put the book down, lay down on the bed, and took a nap.
When I woke up, it was one o'clock in the afternoon. I was a little hungry, so I went downstairs to find something to eat. When I got to the entrance, I looked around but didn't see the shoes that Xuan Xingze had worn today. Maybe he hadn't come back yet.
That's true. With an unlimited card like that, you'd be too busy swiping and buying things to even think about going home.
Bai Xiaoruo quickly cooked some noodles to make do, and after eating, she planned to go upstairs to lie down for a while, when a series of "bang bang bang" sounds of kicking the door rang out.
Bai Xiaoruo knew without even thinking who was outside. Couldn't he just knock on the door or ring the doorbell a few times? Why did he have to kick it so hard? He almost broke the door.
"Coming, coming, stop kicking it." Bai Xiaoruo walked to open the door impatiently.
As soon as the door opened, Xuan Xingze was seen looking radiant, followed by a dozen or so uncles carrying dozens of boxes and bags.
What's going on?
I told him not to bring back any random women, is he planning to bring in a bunch of middle-aged men of unknown origin?
"you......"
"Make way, make way, I still need to put my things in." Xuan Xingze pushed past Bai Xiaoruo at the door, letting the group of uncles behind him walk in one by one.
There was everything imaginable: several large bags of designer clothes, many unopened cardboard boxes, and even pet carriers like those from pet stores. Bai Xiaoruo couldn't see what kind of animals were inside, and there was no sound coming from the cages.
The men put their things down and went out one after another.
They even closed the door for them.
Bai Xiaoruo looked around, still completely bewildered. "You bought all of this? You're only staying here for a few days, why did you need to buy so much stuff?"
"Who said I'm only staying for a few days? Little one, unless you come back to the US with me, I won't want to leave you."
Seriously? He's planning to stay here permanently?
Bai Xiaoruo almost fainted. She couldn't stand Xuan Xingze staying here even for one more day, let alone for an extended period? Oh my god, she really wanted to go back to the new hospital right now.
"Even if I really go to the US, I'll go with your brother, not with you." Too lazy to argue with him anymore, Bai Xiaoruo turned to go upstairs, but Xuan Xingze quickly grabbed her wrist.
"What are you doing! Don't touch me!" Bai Xiaoruo broke free from his hand, somewhat displeased. What prank was he planning to play on her now?
"Little one, you really hurt my feelings. I bought you a gift especially for you, and you're leaving without even looking at it."
A gift? Like that toy spider from last night?
Forget it! He can keep it for himself!
"Aren't you bored? What are you trying to do to scare me now? I won't fall for it again."
Just as Bai Xiaoruo was about to leave, Xuan Xingze grabbed her again, "Hey, hey, don't go! I'm serious. This is definitely not a prank. I genuinely bought you a gift."
"Really?" Bai Xiaoruo was still somewhat skeptical.
"Absolutely true. If I lie to you again, I'll chop off my head and use it as a stool." Xuan Xingze solemnly raised three fingers to swear.
