Yan Rusheng didn’t forget to credit his wife.
Zhou Shuang threw Yan Rusheng a dirty look before turning to Xuxu. “How did you train Yan Rusheng? Why do I feel that he is like a loyal dog obediently following his owner?”
‘What?!’ The moment he heard Zhou Shuang’s sarcastic words, his handsome face hardened.
He ended Lu Yinan’s call before turning to Zhou Shuang. “From head to toe, you look exactly like an uneducated and uncouth hooligan,” sneered Yan Rusheng with apparent disdain.
He spun around, looking haughty and cold.
Xuxu smiled helplessly as she watched both of them. She turned around to glance at Su Yue.
Su Yue was gazing at her phone, seemingly in a daze with a bright smile frozen on her lips. Xuxu was curious and she scooted over. “Yueyue, what are you looking at? You look so happy.”
Su Yue’s hand trembled when she heard Xuxu. She hastily looked up and replied, “Nothing! I’m just reading a joke. A really hilarious one.”
She peered at Xuxu’s face but avoided her eyes.
She was texting Ming Ansheng, and she felt guilty for lying.
Xuxu didn’t say much although she still smiled. “Are you hungry? We are going to eat, anything you feel like eating?”
“I’m fine with anything,” Su Yue replied without a thought.
Xuxu could tell that she seemed out of sorts, but she didn’t probe further.
Su Yue heaved a sigh of relief when Xuxu turned away. She stared at the screen angrily as she typed. ‘My third sister-in-law called me just now, and I was so shocked. Stop texting me!’
Ming Ansheng swiftly replied, ‘Do you feel so guilty being in a relationship with me? Why are you so afraid?’
Su Yue typed, ‘I feel guilty because I’m dating an old guy. People will make fun of me.’
Ming Ansheng didn’t reply for a long time.
Her words must have hurt him.
Su Yue was puzzled and she sent a text. ‘What happened? Why didn’t you reply?’
Ming Ansheng typed. ‘Didn’t you ask me to stop texting you?’
He sounded extremely aggrieved and pitiful.
Su Yue was speechless with his reply. ‘Stop texting. I’m going to eat now.’
Ming Ansheng replied, ‘What are you eating?’
Su Yue replied, ‘I asked Third sister-in-law to decide.’
Ming Ansheng typed. ‘Street X has a restaurant named Amorous. Their barbecued food is superb. You will definitely like their food.’
Su Yue asked, ‘How did you know? Have you been there?’
She felt like an idiot for asking that question.
Ming Ansheng replied, ‘I’m very familiar with Country M just like the capital city.’
Su Yue asked, ‘Do you come here often? Why?’
Ming Ansheng typed. ‘For some matters.’
Su Yue didn’t press on regarding his answer. She merely typed ‘oh’ .
She assumed that their conversation was over. After she locked the screen, Ming Ansheng suddenly replied. ‘What should I do? I won’t be able to place the present on Christmas Eve on your bed.’
Su Yue asked, ‘What present is it?’
Ming Ansheng didn’t directly answer her. ‘Sigh. I won’t continue since I won’t be able to give you.’
‘Forget it then.’ Su Yue’s curiosity was piqued, yet he refused to admit it. So she angrily stowed her phone into her bag and marched ahead. “Third sister-in-law, let’s go to the Amorous restaurant at Street X. They are famous for their barbecued food.”
