Seeing how much Bai Xiaoruo liked the bear apron, Xuan Mingyu was at a loss for what to do with her.
I'll let it go since she's pregnant.
"This will not be repeated."
Bai Xiaoru pouted, then picked up the bear apron from the stroller and looked at it. "What do you mean 'never again'? This is so cute. You're just too old to understand fashion. This is the most popular bear apron right now. I've even seen its cartoon."
"What did you say?" Xuan Mingyu narrowed his eyes.
She's getting bolder and bolder, daring to say he's too old to understand fashion?
What kind of fashion is this childish teddy bear? How old is she and she's still watching cartoons?
"Hmph, that's for sure! In terms of age, it wouldn't be an exaggeration for me to call you 'uncle'."
"Huh? Say it again?"
He reached out and pinched her fair, delicate face.
He's been indulging her more and more. She's so sharp-tongued, always saying he's old and calling him "uncle." Is he really that old?
I absolutely have to teach her a lesson today.
"Ouch, it hurts, it hurts! Be gentle, my face isn't clay!" she groaned, frowning.
Hearing Bai Xiaoruo cry out in pain, Xian Mingyu quickly released her face and carefully checked her, "Did I hurt you? Does it still hurt?" He gently touched her face, feeling that he hadn't used too much force, but her little face was so delicate that even a few light pinches left red marks.
Bai Xiaoruo slapped Xian Mingyu's hand away in annoyance, "Hmph, if you really break it, you'll have to pay me back."
It didn't actually hurt that much; I was just teasing him.
"Okay, okay, I'll make it up to you. How about I go to the pharmacy later and buy you some medicine to apply? Does it still hurt a lot?"
"I don't need any medicine. Hmm, if you watch TV with me tonight, I'll forgive you."
"Looking again?"
Is it that melodramatic romance movie that Annie recommended to her before?
Xuan Mingyu was very frustrated. He had been watching it for several nights, and she still wasn't tired of it.
Normally, it's not just Bai Xiaoruo who wants to watch it; she also has to drag Xuan Mingyu along. If he doesn't watch it with her, she'll always bring up a whole bunch of examples, "Look how good other people's husbands are," "What other people's husbands do for their wives," and so on...
In reality, Bai Xiaoruo wasn't a complete fan of the show. She would only watch for a little over an hour before starting to yawn, but she refused to go upstairs to sleep until she was so sleepy that she fell into a deep sleep on his lap, at which point he would carry her upstairs.
"What's wrong? I just asked you to watch TV with me and you're so unwilling."
Bai Xiaoruo sighed, touching her still-flat stomach. "Baby, baby, Mommy is so pitiful. Your daddy always bullies me, he can't even give me this small request..."
"He's not even fully formed yet, how could he possibly hear what you're saying?"
"Hmph!" Bai Xiaoru snorted coldly and turned her face away.
He's the most amazing one; he knows everything.
"Alright, alright, I didn't say I wouldn't go with you." The supermarket was bustling with people, and for the first time in public, he swallowed his pride to coax her.
"Then it's settled, or you can forget about sleeping in my bed tonight. Let's go, we need to buy some other ingredients, I'm starving."
Even if she doesn't let him sleep in the bed, she always falls asleep in his arms first.
Xian Mingyu pushed the stroller beside Bai Xiaoruo.
......
They bought a lot of food, including seafood and ingredients for making seafood soup, as well as chicken, pork, tofu, and green vegetables. Most importantly, they bought mushrooms, which Bai Xiaoruo loves.
They also bought milk, cream, and two large bags of rice, enough for the two of them to eat for several months.
Bai Xiaoruo wanted to buy a lot of mushrooms, and one plastic bag wasn't enough to hold them all, so she asked Xuan Mingyu to get another one.
Before leaving, Xian Mingyu told her not to wander off, to be careful, and not to just focus on picking mushrooms.
The supermarket was crowded, and shopping carts were scrambling around everywhere. Even if he was only away from her for a short while, he was still very worried.
"I understand, hurry up and go." Bai Xiaoruo had almost filled the plastic bag she was holding; if he didn't bring more bags soon, there wouldn't be enough to hold everything.
The mushrooms at the supermarket were very fresh and large today, and they were cheaper than what she usually bought at the market. Bai Xiaoruo certainly couldn't miss this opportunity, so she bought a lot to store so she wouldn't have to go out to buy them again if she wanted to eat them in the future.
While Bai Xiaoruo was selecting mushrooms, the person facing her was also selecting mushrooms.
I never expected to run into her here. It's been a few months since I last saw her, and she seems to be doing even better. Her complexion is also very rosy.
"Miss Bai, we meet again."
who?
Bai Xiaoruo looked up, and Lu Xinyao was also looking at her.
She had originally wanted to teach her a lesson a long time ago, but in the past few months, she didn't know if Xuan Mingyu had hidden her too well or if she had been hiding too mysteriously, so Lu Xinyao had been unable to find Bai Xiaoruo. She only recently found out that Bai Xiaoruo hadn't even been to school for a long time.
The investigators managed to photograph Xuan Mingyu accompanying Bai Xiaoruo to the hospital several times, but the hospital's secrecy was so good that no one knew what they were doing there.
"I don't want to see you at all."
Bai Xiaoruo spoke her mind directly, no longer beating around the bush.
She never had a good impression of Lu Xinyao.
"you!"
Her words infuriated Lu Xinyao. There was no one who dared to be arrogant in front of her, Lu Xinyao, before, now, and never again!
And Bai Xiaoruo will be no exception.
She only dares to act arrogantly in front of her because Xian Mingyu dotes on her. Otherwise, who would she be to dare to be so haughty in front of her?
Seeing the disgusting sight of the people around her, Bai Xiaoruo lost interest in picking out the remaining mushrooms. Just then, Xuan Mingyu walked over with a new plastic bag. Bai Xiaoruo hooked her arm around his and said in a sweet, coquettish voice, "Honey, this is enough for us. I'm so hungry. Hurry up and go back to cook for me!"
"Didn't you just say you wanted to buy more?" Xian Mingyu asked, holding the plastic bag in his hand, somewhat bewildered.
Bai Xiaoruo's sudden act of acting coquettishly and calling him "husband" in public left Xian Mingyu completely bewildered.
At home, she'd be shy and wouldn't even call his name a couple of times, but he just went to get a bag, and in less than two minutes, her expression changed way too quickly.
"That was just now, but you don't want it anymore now~" She tugged at Xian Mingyu's sleeve. "Honey, this lady seems to be someone you know. Do you want to say hello to her?"
Following the direction Bai Xiaoruo was pointing, Xian Mingyu noticed Lu Xinyao standing to the side.
"Mingyu, I..."
There were so many things she wanted to say to him, but at that moment, Lu Xinyao couldn't bring herself to utter a single word.
Her hands were clenched into fists. If Bai Xiaoruo hadn't been there, if this damned girl hadn't ruined everything, the man in front of her should have belonged to her, Lu Xinyao.
The chances of running into him and talking to him at the company were already slim, and now his wife was here too. What was he anyway?
