Those features, in truth, weren’t as beautiful as her original face, but even though it wasn’t as stunning, it had its own charm. Her previous face was breathtakingly beautiful, just like peonies and peaches, instantly capturing anyone’s attention with just one glance.
However, now, this face held a refined and graceful beauty, like that of an orchid. It lacked the unforgettable beauty that caught the eye, but the longer one looked at it, the more comfortable and relaxed it became.
Ou Mucen cast a brief look at the shirt of his that she wore, and noticed that her originally somewhat curvaceous figure now seemed nonexistent in it. The slender body was wrapped inside, leaving only a pair of legs showing.
Nevertheless, her legs were now particularly eye-catching.
Ou Mucen stared at them for a while when suddenly, he felt his throat tighten. After swallowing saliva, he lowered his head and looked at the child in his arms, "Do you want to drink more?"
Ye Xiaobao looked at him...
This uncle, didn’t he just drink? He’s not a bucket!
Ye Ning hadn’t noticed this man’s change. After coming out of the bathroom, she rubbed her still-damp hair with the towel in her hand and then shuffled over in her slippers, "I’m sorry, I just picked up Xiaobao’s clothes from Tang Garden today, and I didn’t have time to take them home before coming here."
Ou Mucen’s expression immediately soured, "You went there today?"
Tang Garden was where Lin Yebai lived, and of course, he knew. So, she had been to that place the whole day today?
The man’s expression quickly turned sour...
Ye Ning noticed his reaction and couldn’t help but laugh, "Well, since I’ve already left there, I naturally had to take back the things I left behind, don’t you think?"
Taking back the things she left there? Did that mean... she was completely severing ties with that man?
He pursed his lips and said no more.
Severing ties with that man felt good, but the fact that these children’s clothes weren’t specifically brought to his place dampened his mood again!
Ye Ning noticed his expression, lowered her head and looked at the opened travel bag for a good while, and eventually decided to say nothing more. She went to the entrance to bring in some groceries and seasonings she had just bought and headed to the kitchen.
During the time she had spent with this man, she had quite figured out his temperament. Despite his volatile and irritable nature, he was actually easy to appease.
As long as you understood what made him angry, he would calm down immediately.
But now, she didn’t feel like placating him...
After entering the kitchen, she placed the items she was carrying on the cabinet and began to busily move around.
Ou Mucen stayed in the living room with Ye Xiaobao, but his eyes kept darting towards the kitchen. Upon seeing her slender figure bustling about, his gaze shifted, and he stood up, "Xiaobao, play by yourself for a bit. I’m going to check if your mom has finished cooking."
Ye Xiaobao obediently nodded, "Okay, Uncle, you should go quickly. My mom isn’t very good at cooking—be careful she doesn’t burn the pot."
