Chapter 160
Xiang was a man of his words, and he said he wanted to marry her at noon that day. In the afternoon, he used his connections to have someone from the Civil Service Bureau come to their home to help them get the certificate.
After getting the certificate, Xiang Quan and Sun Wenhong gave them a big wedding. Xiang Ye neither objected nor agreed, but just said that the company was busy at the moment. Anyway, the wedding was already done, so they could hold it after they were done with the work. Maybe then it would be a double happiness. Xiang Quan and Sun Wenhong were very happy to hear that, so they did not insist. After dinner that night, Xiang Ye took Xia Xue away from the Xiang Mansion on the grounds that the newlyweds needed to cultivate their relationship, and moved to his own house in the city center.
Xiangquan and Sun Wenhong were not in favor of it at first, but Xia Xue acted like a shy little woman with her eyebrows downcast and eyes drooping. She stood shyly beside Xiangye. Xiangquan and Sun Wenhong just thought that she also wanted to be alone, and didn't think about it. Although they were reluctant, they thought that since they were newly married, it would be good for them to move in and cultivate their relationship. So they agreed.
Xiangye brought Xia Xue to an apartment in the city center, arranged a room for her, and then hid in the study. He did not come out all night. Then every day he either left early and came back late or was on a "business trip", sometimes a "business trip" lasted more than half a month.
Without Xiangye's attention, Xia Xue was happy and at ease. Anyway, she had already made him marry her. All she had to do next was to make him divorce her, and her mission would be accomplished. These days, she would usually go to the Xiang's residence during the day to accompany Xiangquan and Sun Wenhong, and considerately come back early in the afternoon, under the pretext of coming back to take care of Xiangye, but in fact, she just didn't want Xiangquan and Sun Wenhong to worry.
Of course, in order to prevent Xiangye from forgetting his new wife, she called Xiangye every afternoon to ask when he would be back. He would answer her calls in the first few days, but later he simply ignored them. Xia Xue was not in a hurry, and instead of answering her calls, she sent him messages. She asked him every day if he would come back for dinner, but of course, Xiangye didn't even answer his calls, and certainly didn't reply to his messages. Xia Xue was not annoyed.
These days, Xia Xue was happy because she felt the warmth of home. But she was also very worried. If things continued to develop like this, how could she make Xiangye divorce her without hurting these two people who were really good to her?
"Xiaoxue, is Xiaosan busy recently?" Sun Wenhong asked Xia Xue while helping her prepare dinner for the two of them tonight.
"He has been coming home on time for dinner every night recently, and he hasn't gone out at night. He just stays at home with me." Xia Xue readily responded to Sun Wenhong's routine questions.
"That's good. You two have a good relationship. Mom is relieved." Hearing Xia Xue say this, Sun Wenhong was very happy. Then she stared at Xia Xue's belly and said, "But you also have to work harder. You have been married for three months, and Mom and Grandpa are still waiting to hold their grandson."
"Mom." Xia Xue's face immediately turned red when she heard Sun Wenhong say this.
"Mom is an experienced person, so just listen to her. Hurry up and give birth to the baby while you are still young, and grandpa and mom can help you take care of the child." Sun Wenhong thought Xia Xue was just being shy and didn't think much about it.
That night, I don't know if Sun Wenhong called Xiangye. When Xia Xue came home with dinner, Xiangye was already at home.
She was very happy. She made tea for Xiangye first, fearing that he might be thirsty. She then put the dinner she brought back from Xiangye's house on the table. Then she served Xiangye his meal.
During the meal, both of them were very quiet, and no one spoke. Xia Xue had known Xiang Ye before, and knew what he liked. So, she played the role of the young wife to the fullest. She ate happily, with affectionate eyes. She was both loving and well-behaved, not to the point that Xiang Ye felt disgusted. But she also didn't make him feel liked.
Xiang was quite satisfied with Xia Xue's performance. After the meal, he was willing to chat with her for a few minutes.
"Have a piece of watermelon." Xia Xue put the dishes in the sink and came out with the fruit prepared by Mrs. Liu. She also forked a piece of watermelon for Xiang Xiang and put it in his mouth.
Xiang also took it and asked her casually, "I heard from mom that you have been back to the compound to accompany them these days."
"Yeah. Anyway, I have nothing to do during the day, so I'll go back and chat with grandpa and mom." Seeing that Xiang had finished eating the watermelon, Xia Xue offered him another piece.
"What did you talk about?" Xiang Ye took over and asked casually.
"Just chatting." Xia Xue still lowered her head, not daring to look up at Xiangye. But her eyes and actions showed again and again that she could do anything for Xiangye. She loved him very much.
"Well. Anyway, you don't have anything to do on weekdays, so go back and accompany them." Xiang was very supportive of Xia Xue going back to accompany the two elderly people at home. At this moment, he felt that marrying Xia Xue was not bad, of course, the premise was that she would not be too annoying.
"Okay." Gentle personality, gentle personality. Xia Xue originally wanted to refute Xiangye, saying that if he really cared about them, he shouldn't move here to live, and should go home to eat. But, gentle personality, gentle personality! So now, she did whatever he said. She loved him to the extreme, she could live and die for him.
She was terribly upset inside, but on the surface she was still calm. She smiled calmly, listened to his arrangements calmly, and regarded her husband as her God.
Seeing Xia Xue like this, Xiang Ye couldn't help but feel more satisfied. Then he said, "Mom called me this afternoon and asked me to go back with you for dinner when I'm free. I'll make arrangements, and we'll go back together when we're free in the next few days."
[Xia Xue: No way, I still have to go back with you to have dinner. Can I skip this meal? I’m afraid I’ll have indigestion. And I also need you to arrange that I can be summoned by you at any time and dismissed at will?]
Of course, although Xia Xue thought so in her heart, she still smiled slightly, and said cheerfully, very happily, and very expectantly: "Okay."
"I still have some things to take care of." After arranging everything properly, Xiang also lost interest in staying any longer and was about to get up.
Seeing that he had stood up, Xia Xue mustered up her courage, lowered her head, and hesitantly said, "My Lord, my mother asked me to try my best so that she can hug her grandson in the morning. You see..."
"Busy." Xiangye said this without even looking at Xia Xue. He opened the door and left.
[Xia Xue: You are such an arrogant guy. You really think I am going to give birth to a baby for you. Go to hell.]
【Bibi: Where is the gentleness you promised me?】
【Xia Xue: Eaten by a dog.】
