The elongated body suddenly stiffened for a moment.
Xing Chen raised his well-shaped eyebrows, watching Ran Xiangsi walk briskly to the dining table.
At that moment, Xiahou Xiu Yun had already walked out from the kitchen, her face beaming with youthful vitality.
"Everyone sit down, breakfast is just ready," she said.
When Xiahou Xiu Yun was at home, she didn’t put on any airs at all and treated Xiangsi very well.
Ran Xiangsi liked this mother-in-law a lot and sat beside her, proactively pouring her some milk.
"Mom, you woke up so early?" Ran Xiangsi smiled cheerfully and chatted with Xiahou Xiu Yun, looking in a good mood.
"Getting older, I can’t sleep well. Unlike you young people, who should sleep a bit more..." Xiahou Xiu Yun said, covering her mouth and starting to laugh.
Her laughter was full of meaning.
Ran Xiangsi got goosebumps from her laughter.
Mrs. Xiahou was great in every way, except... hmm, a bit too forward.
With a wry smile, Ran Xiangsi looked away.
In a blink, she saw Xing Chen sitting next to her voluntarily.
He just glanced at her indifferently, not speaking, still maintaining his cold and aloof demeanor.
Ran Xiangsi also remained silent, and the two awkwardly exchanged glances before sitting down.
Actually... when Ran Xiangsi woke up this morning, she was no longer angry.
She had watched the hotel’s surveillance footage last night, and she vaguely understood something in her heart.
Moreover, waking up to find herself lying on a soft big bed... After asking the servant, she knew it was Xing Chen who carried her back.
Even though he left so coldly last night, he still came to check on her in the middle of the night...
Clearly a caring heart beneath a cold exterior.
Ran Xiangsi didn’t say anything, but she had already quietly started moving.
Taking over the servant’s work, Ran Xiangsi poured a cup of hot milk for Xing Chen and handed it over.
She coughed slightly, still not speaking, but the affection in this gesture was understood by everyone.
Xing Chen lowered his eyes to look at the extra cup of milk in front of him, then glanced at Ran Xiangsi, who turned her face slightly awkwardly, and his lips curved slightly.
Understanding her intention, he didn’t hesitate, and calmly reached out, covering her hand that pushed the milk over.
Ran Xiangsi paused, feeling the sudden warmth on the back of her hand. When she looked back, she met Xing Chen’s smiling black eyes.
Feeling so triumphant...
The next second, she tried to withdraw her hand only to find that Xing Chen had applied force, leaving her unable to move.
She tried harder again, but still, nothing changed. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt
The two were at a stalemate, and Xiahou Xiu Yun, who had been watching from the side, couldn’t hold back anymore and burst into laughter...
She couldn’t take it, seeing her son and daughter-in-law so affectionate, with pink bubbles floating everywhere, she just couldn’t resist!
With Xiahou Xiu Yun’s laughter, Ran Xiangsi’s face blushed bright red all at once!
With a strong pull, she finally retracted her hand and buried her head in her food awkwardly...
Xing Chen didn’t plan to tease her further, just looked up in a good mood and glanced at his mom who had just laughed out loud.
Xiahou Xiu Yun was smiling and giving him a thumbs up...
Well done, my good son!
Indeed, you have inherited your mother’s charm from back in the day!
The magic of verbal language lies in expression and communication.
While body language, sometimes, can be more straightforward and forceful.
A single gesture, a single glance, can convey everything.
I have my own stubbornness,
I am unwilling to speak, so I can only express my desire for reconciliation through such clumsy actions.
