Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

Actually, Sister Huang had this little thought before but she just never found the chance to talk to Xie Xiao about it.

Xie Xiao always seemed to be in a rush, and most of the exchanges between the two were about work-related issues.

Today, it was rare that both of them didn't seem too busy.

Sister Huang's little thought became lively again, "Xie Xiao, are you getting used to the internship?"

"I wasn't quite used to it at first, but now I am," Xie Xiao replied honestly. People always naturally adapt to their environment.

When the internship just started, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could fall asleep as soon as he got home every night.

That made Luo Yanran feel quite distressed.

She would call Doctor Yang or Father Luo whenever she had the time.

She tried all sorts of ways to prepare nourishing soups and the like for Xie Xiao.

Otherwise, Xie Xiao would probably have lost even more weight.

Because of this, Luo Yanran felt her cooking skills had improved a lot.

Thinking of his fiancée, Xie Xiao's face softened.

Sister Huang's seat was opposite, so she didn't notice his expression at that moment.

Otherwise, she definitely wouldn't have started this conversation.

At the moment, she brought it up naturally, "Xie Xiao, being so outstanding, there must have been quite a few girls who liked you at school, right?"

Xie Xiao waved his hands with a smile, "Not at all. There are too many outstanding people in school. I'm quite unremarkable."

Sister Huang remembered his school was B University, where indeed there were many outstanding individuals, but she felt even more satisfied in her heart.

She said with a smile, "Young people are just too modest. By the way, Xie Xiao, do you have a girl you like?"

Xie Xiao felt something was off. Sister Huang would normally never chat about personal matters with him.

Was she intending to set him up with a girlfriend?

Xie Xiao thought for a moment. He had been so busy lately that he indeed didn't seem like someone with a girlfriend,

but that wasn't Xie Xiao's fault, mainly because his fiancée was also busy.

At that moment, he said with a smile, "Yes, I have a fiancée. I guess we'll register for marriage after I graduate."

It was then Sister Huang's turn to be stunned.

Wasn't it? Recently, she did not see Xie Xiao as someone with a partner, right?

He was always looking at documents during lunch break, and although he occasionally seemed to reply to messages, he put down his phone quickly.

And he already had a girlfriend?

And was planning to get married right after graduation?

Could it be?

But then she thought of Xie Xiao's merits, and it seemed normal for him to have a girlfriend.

It would be weird if he didn't.

Sister Huang laughed awkwardly for a moment, glad that she hadn't gotten straight to the point, or it would have been even more awkward, "Ah, you have a girlfriend? She doesn't mind you being so busy?"

Xie Xiao pondered seriously for a moment, "She should be alright; her work is quite busy too."

Sister Huang laughed and said a few words, then she steered the conversation to another topic.

Xie Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief. Adult social interactions with a sense of propriety felt very comfortable.

He thought about the clingy girls Lin Yu had complained about before, and secretly felt relieved; thankfully, he had never encountered such people.

Xie Xiao didn't finish work until 10:30 that evening.

His vacation would start the next day.

After sending a message to Luo Yanran and knowing she had gotten home,

Xie Xiao headed straight back in his car.

On his way home, he remembered to pick up the late-night clay pot porridge Luo Yanran had asked for.

Upon arriving home, just as he came up from the underground parking, the elevator stopped on the first floor.

Xie Xiao watched the elevator doors open, and then Luo Yanran stood at the entrance.

He had only typed half a message in his hand.

He paused for a second, and as Luo Yanran entered the elevator, he asked with a smile, "Handsome guy by yourself?"

Xie Xiao burst into laughter, reaching out to hold her hand, but then remembered that he held a phone in one hand and clay pot porridge in the other, which was inconvenient.

Instead, Luo Yanran walked over to his right side, where he was holding his phone, slipped her arm through his, and asked with laughter in her voice, "Surprise?"

Xie Xiao quickly leaned in and kissed her on the lips, "Surprise! But you've just been waiting here?"

"Yeah. I estimated the time you would arrive and just came downstairs. I thought about waiting in the underground garage, but it was a bit dark." Luo Yanran smiled shyly, "So I waited on the first floor instead."

"And what if it wasn't me?" Xie Xiao asked with a laugh.

Luo Yanran blinked, "But so far, I've only stopped one person, and it was you. If it wasn't, I'd just say sorry and keep waiting."

"You wouldn't feel embarrassed?"

"I would, but I just wanted to surprise you. So, are you happy or not?" Luo Yanran looked up at him.

She was still wearing her loungewear, with slippers down below.

Probably because she had washed her hair, it wasn't tied up.

Her face was clean, and her eyes were filled with anticipation, beautiful and cute.

She looked like a high school student.

Xie Xiao couldn't help but kiss her again, "It's a surprise, super happy."

Luo Yanran smiled with satisfaction.

At that moment, the elevator arrived. Luo Yanran, arm in arm with Xie Xiao, walked out with light footsteps, "As long as you're happy. I can't think of any other surprises right now, anyway."

"Seeing you even a minute earlier is a surprise for me," Xie Xiao said as he opened the door.

Luo Yanran exclaimed, "Xie Xiao, you're so smooth. Have you been influenced by society?" Enjoy more content from empire

Xie Xiao glanced at her, said nothing, just arched an eyebrow.

After changing shoes and carrying the porridge, they walked inside together.

Luo Yanran was somewhat surprised. Why isn't he speaking?

She followed behind Xie Xiao, a bit worried, "Are you very tired today?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Instead, Xie Xiao asked, "Are you hungry now?"

Luo Yanran paused for a moment, "Actually, I'm okay, I just suddenly felt like eating clay pot porridge..."

Xie Xiao gave an "Oh" and placed the porridge on the dining table, then said, "Let's eat in a bit."

Then he turned around and scooped her up in his arms.

The sudden sensation of weightlessness startled Luo Yanran, and she quickly wrapped her arms around Xie Xiao's neck, "Ah! What are you doing?"

"You know..."

What are you doing?

You know.

Luo Yanran's face instantly flushed red. Was this man making a risqué joke?

"No, I mean, aren't you tired?" Luo Yanran stuttered out.

Cradling her, Xie Xiao walked towards the bedroom, "Not tired, and I'll take the opportunity to show you what a man seasoned by society can do, and it's not as simple as just whispering sweet nothings," he said, casting a meaningful look at Luo Yanran.

They had both been too busy lately, and he felt like he was neglecting his wife, which wasn't acceptable.

Luo Yanran wanted to say something, but she was already tossed onto the bed.

Soon, Xie Xiao was upon her.

There was no chance to speak further.

Xie Xiao demonstrated through actions that he was truly not tired at all.

Yes, society-seasoned Xie Xiao was a bit fierce.

...

After everything was over, Xie Xiao held her and went to shower, Luo Yanran limply letting him move her around.

Her gaze at Xie Xiao seemed to be trying to look fierce on purpose.

But it still had no killing power.

Xie Xiao couldn't take it and leaned in to kiss her a few more times.

It almost lead to a careless mistake.

In the end, Xie Xiao was chased out.

He resignedly tidied up the bedroom by himself and then went to the kitchen to heat up the porridge for Kuo Yanran.

And it was at this moment that the door to their home was knocked on.
