There was a man in the house and this man claimed to be her husband. So, he was here to catch the adulterer.

Fortunately, he was smart enough not to pass the food to him.

Confusion flashed past Zhou Shuang’s eyes, but she remained aloof. She sharply watched Lu Yinan and asked, “What does that have to do with you?”

She stole a glance at the deliveryman and understood instantly. She concealed a grin.

Lu Yinan got anxious. “Of course, it has something to do with me! You’re the mother of my children and you’re my woman. You have a man inside your house. Why wouldn’t it have nothing to do with me?”

He was vexed and anxious, and he tried to barge inside.

Zhou Shuang’s face hardened as she shoved him away. With a glare, she fiercely warned him, “Lu Yinan. We’re not legally married. So, if you trespass my property, I’ll call the police.”

Lu Yinan realized that he was too rash, so he hastily coaxed her. “Don’t be angry! I just wanted to know who the man is.”

He smiled and continued, “Is it the plumber?”

Plumber? He really could come up with such ingenious ideas. This was her first day staying here, what could possibly go wrong?

Zhou Shuang was amused and exasperated at the same time. But she suppressed her feelings with a stoic expression. “No.”

Lu Yinan asked, “Electrician?”

He mumbled to himself, “You can change a light bulb faster than me. I doubt it.”

Zhou Shuang was supposed to remain solemn and serious, but what he had said rendered her speechless. Why didn’t she realize how hilarious this guy could be?

But, so what?

Zhou Shuang quietly pressed her lips and fell silent. “Lu Yinan, go back,” said Zhou Shuang in a soft voice.

She sounded as though she was drained and defeated.

Lu Yinan was terrified by how detached she appeared. He darted forward to embrace her, disregarding her protests altogether. “Shuang, I really can’t live without you. I didn’t treasure you in the past. But can you give me another chance?”

“Go home if you have nothing else to say. I want to eat.” Zhou Shuang writhed away from him as she said that.

Lu Yinan refused to loosen his arms around her. “Shuang, don’t push me away. Give me one more chance. I will treasure it.”

He sounded earnest and sincere.

After he spoke, his swiftly eyes darted around, looking for the mysterious man.

He wanted to know who the man was. It couldn’t be Ming Ansheng, neither could it be her new boss Su Yan. And it definitely couldn’t be Third Yan.

‘Who could it be?’

‘Who?’

It was so late and a man was inside. How could he be calm about this?

Young Master Lu still felt frustrated when Zhou Shuang’s voice sounded. “You already took the children. And I said that I won’t appear again. I can’t do it, so please let me go now.”

She released the plastic bag and used both her hands to grab Lu Yinan’s shoulders. She was determined to push him away.

Lu Yinan refused to and was adamant. “No! I won’t let go.”

“Lu Yinan!” The sound of the elevator interrupted Zhou Shuang.

She glanced in the direction of the elevator and saw a man walking out.

It was the delivery man. He momentarily froze when he saw Lu Yinan and Zhou Shuang hugging. He put on an apologetic smile and said, “Sorry, I forgot to give you your change. The vegetables you ordered weren’t available so there is a refund.”
