Chapter 441: My Pleasure
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
I’m not sick. Enoch is sick.
Xia Ning felt like there was an explosion in her head. Certain emotions erupted from the bottom of her heart suddenly. She turned around and glared at Qiao Yu. She said coldly with a lowered voice, “Qiao Yu, don’t make jokes like this!” After that, she threw away his hand and walked down the stairs.
“No one gets sick at this time of the year. Don’t lie to me like this. You think I’m a three-year-old?” Xia Ning said as she was walking. Her tone was not good. But her body was shaking, even if she tried to cover it by walking.
Qiao Yu saw Xia Ning’s back and did not explain, allowing her to leave.
The stairway was quiet. Only the fading sound of the high heels could be heard.
Qiao Yu looked at the plastic bags in his hand with dark eyes. In his eyes were something deep that could not be resolved.
Just at this time, his phone rang suddenly!
Qiao Yu returned to himself and took out his phone. Seeing the number on the phone, he was somewhat surprised. He answered the call.
“I just remembered I have something to do near your place. I’ll wait for you in the parking lot.”
“Sure!” Before Qiao Yu could finish, the other side hung up.
Staring at the phone screen, Qiao Yu curled his lips invisibly. She probably still cared.
She did not even know where his place was. Additionally, what could she have to do there?
In the parking lot, Xia Ning was looking at the search result of how to prevent kids from getting a cold during this season. Who knows if it is serious or not?
Qiao Yu walked to the front of her and asked her, “Did you drive here?”
Xia Ning turned off her phone and looked at Qiao Yu to say, “I didn’t. Can I get a ride from you?”
“Sure.” Qiao Yu opened the car door and sat in.
Xia Ning went in at once too. This time, she was in the passenger seat.
Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning’s emotionless face, obviously feeling that she was a bit tense. Not too long ago, he had asked her to sit in the passenger seat, but she refused directly. Therefore, was it because she was so worried about Enoch that she forgot to fight with him on this?
“My mother is taking care of Enoch. You don’t need to worry.” Qiao Yu comforted her.
Xia Ning’s eyebrows twitched. She threw a look at Qiao Yu and nodded without speaking.
Qiao Yu suddenly leaned towards her. Xia Ning felt someone approaching. She returned to herself suddenly and looked up to catch sight of Qiao Yu’s handsome face. Her expression changed a little and she glared at him. “What are you doing?”
“You forgot to fasten the seatbelt,” Qiao Yu said calmly. He grabbed the seatbelt and helped Xia Ning to fasten it. Then, he sat straight again.
Xia Ning’s hand held onto the chair. Her heartbeats were reminding her of her own emotion. She looked down and said calmly, “Thank you.”
“My pleasure.” Qiao Yu looked to the front and started his car, his eyes covered with a smile.
Xia Ning’s expression changed a little. What did he mean? He sounded as if he took advantage of her. She turned around to glare at Qiao Yu and happened to see his smiling face, warm like when the sun melted the snow. The words in her mouth never came out.
So he knew how to smile!
In her memory, she had never seen him smile. Before they got married, she was chasing after him. He was bothered by it so how could he show her a good expression? When they got married, he did it out of responsibility. Therefore, he probably did not feel happy then either.
So he just did not smile at her.
Or maybe, when she disappeared from his world, he finally learned how to smile.
In any case, she felt that it was somewhat ironic.
Qiao Yu on the side seemed to have felt Xia Ning’s emotion. He asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. Drive carefully.” Xia Ning turned around and looked elsewhere.
Qiao Yu looked at her with a pair of somewhat soft gaze.
