Past memories of how they had bickered flashed across his mind. Never had he imagined that one day, he would be buying sanitary pads for Wen Xuxu.

Xuxu responded with a curt ‘oh’ and took the bag from him. She rose and said, “I’ll go to the bathroom.”

Then she disappeared out of Yan Rusheng’s sight.

“The hunter cut the wolf’s belly with a pair of scissors and rescued Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother.”

“Brother-in-law, you forgot to mention that the hunter put lots of stones inside the big bad wolf’s belly.”

There was a long pause…

Xuxu walked in and overheard Yan Rusheng reciting a story to Huanhuan who was apparently awake. And he had just finished the story.

She heard Huanhuan’s reminder and glanced instinctively at Young Master Yan’s good-looking face. Even though she could only glimpse half of his face, she could feel the gloom emitting from him.

This prideful scion had always despised and mocked others’ IQ. Now, he had revealed to a kid that he couldn’t even remember a fairytale.

“Why did you ask me to tell you the story when you already knew the story by heart?!” The scion glared resentfully at Huanhuan who was looking rather weak.

Huanhuan responded with thorn coating her voice, “Brother Ah Heng wouldn’t have said it wrong!”

Yan Rusheng was speechless…

“This fellow Jiang Zhuoheng!” His wretched presence was really everywhere.

Xuxu had indeed overestimated the scion’s patience and she could not help but smile at the sight in front of her.

She walked towards them and asked, “You bought chocolate as well? Is it for me or for Huanhuan?”

Yan Rusheng glanced fleetingly at the boxes of chocolate and replied, “It’s on discount so it’s cheap.”

Xuxu mumbled to herself softly, “No wonder. I was puzzled why you became so thoughtful and even brought along a present to visit Huanhuan.”

Yan Rusheng was speechless… again.

Did he really need a discount to buy some boxes of chocolate? Did she think that he was some middle-aged woman waiting outside the entrance of a supermarket to snatch some discounted groceries?

Of course, he had bought them because she likes furry toys! The main thing was the furry bear, alright! How could she not get that?

“Dumb woman, you’re really stupid!”

“But this furry bear is really cute, it’s perfect for Huanhuan.” Xuxu dangled the bear in front of Huanhuan and smiled as she asked, “Do you like it?”

Young Master Yan opened his mouth wordlessly as he stared at the bear.

He had gotten the bear by mustering up some unknown courage to buy some discounted chocolate at a store which he rarely even goes to — and yet here she is, casually giving the bear to someone else!

This stupid woman was really driving him to an early death.

Xuxu placed the bear on Huanhuan’s pillow and turned on her heels to face Yan Rusheng who was still sitting there as if having no intentions of leaving. She asked, “Aren’t you going back?”

Yan Rusheng said, “I’ll stay here to accompany you. You sleep first.”

His tone was unyielding.

Xuxu furrowed her eyebrows tightly. “I’m fine. You haven’t had a good rest these few days. Hurry back home.”

Yan Rusheng remained still.

She went over to pull him and gripped his arm. “You should go. I won’t go to the office in the morning, so you should head to work early. Don’t be late.”

Yan Rusheng was startled when he felt how cold her hand was.

Why was it so cold?

Stupid woman, her health wasn’t that good to begin with and she still wanted to stay up the entire night.

“Wen Xuxu, go and sleep now.” He didn’t bother to argue with her anymore and lifted her right away. He strode towards the couch and placed her on it.

Then he removed his blazer and placed it over her.

“Err…” Xuxu wanted to say something but Yan Rusheng pressed his lips against hers and sealed them effectively.
