Anran looked up and saw Xiao Xiao, who was behind mo Fei, walking over with sugar-fried chestnuts in her hands.

Xiao Xiao also saw Anran and was stunned. The smile on her face slowly disappeared, and in the next moment, she smiled again. She stepped forward and naturally reached out to hold mo Fei’s hand. She looked at Anran and said with a smile, ” “Anran, what a coincidence. Long time no see.”

Anran couldn’t help but be surprised by their combination. It was just too unexpected.

After the surprise, Anran only shook her head and chuckled. When she raised her head to look at them again, she only smiled and nodded. &Quot; it’s quite a coincidence, ” she said.

Xiao Xiao’s lips twitched without a smile. She turned around and took out a sweet-fried chestnut from the paper bag as if she was presenting a treasure to please him.”Didn’t you say you wanted to eat chestnuts? I’ll peel them for you. I just tasted one. It’s very sweet and pink.” As he said that, he used his manicure to peel off the chestnut shell, then took out the fruit and intimately brought it to mo Fei’s mouth.

!!

Anran looked at everything with a faint smile, as if she was looking at two complete strangers. She felt nothing.

Mo Fei, on the other hand, stared at Anran, completely unmoved by the chestnut meat Xiao Xiao was offering to his mouth. He didn’t say anything.

“An ran.” Behind her, su Yicheng finally squeezed out of the crowd and walked toward Anran with the still-hot corn.

Anran turned around and saw her smiling blissfully. When she saw the hot corn in his hand, she smiled and said, ” I bought it. &Quot;

Su Yicheng only had Anran in his eyes. When he got closer, he saw mo Fei and Xiao Xiao standing opposite Anran. Seeing their intimate actions, he only raised his eyebrows slightly, not seeming to be too surprised. He nodded at them and said, ” “President mo, miss Xiao, what a coincidence.”

Xiao Xiao withdrew her hand from mo Fei’s mouth, turned her head, and lightly smiled at su Yicheng. &Quot; “Mayor su.”

Mo Fei, on the other hand, looked at him steadily and only nodded stiffly.

This was considered a greeting, and su Yicheng didn’t pay them any mind. He opened the plastic bag and brought the sweet corn to Anran’s mouth as he said, ” “It’s still very hot. I’ll hold it, you can eat slowly.”

“Yes, yes.” Anran nodded happily and took a bite of the corn he was holding. As she ate, she said childishly, ” “Yes, it’s delicious.”

Su Yicheng only rubbed her head affectionately and said, ” “Let’s go, where do you want to go?”

Anran’s mouth was full of corn, and she said, ” “I want to go to the Riverside.” She looked at su Yicheng with sparkling eyes.

Su Yicheng nodded. &Quot; okay, we’ll go wherever you want to go. &Quot; She was the boss, and he was in charge of everything. Then, he raised his head and looked at mo Fei and Xiao Xiao, who were still standing at the side. He smiled and nodded, ” &Quot; President mo, miss Xiao, please continue shopping. We’ll be leaving first. &Quot;

Mo Fei still didn’t show much of an expression. His eyes were fixed on Anran and then at him. His hands were tightly clenched by his sides, as if he was suppressing the surging emotions in his body.

Xiao Xiao awkwardly nodded at su Yicheng and only replied, ” “Alright,” he said.

Anran also nodded at them, then let su Yicheng lead her directly to the river.

Mo Fei was still staring into the distance when the two of them disappeared into the crowd. He was still in a daze.

He brought the chestnut that Xiao Xiao had just peeled to his mouth. Her delicate voice rang in his ears, ” mo Fei, eat the chestnut. Didn’t you want to eat it? it’s really delicious. &Quot;

Mo Fei finally came back to his senses. He looked at Xiao Xiao coldly and slapped her hand away. He said coldly, ” “In the future, don’t do such boring things. Otherwise, it will only make me hate you more.” Then, without even looking at her, he turned around and left.

Xiao Xiao clenched her fists tightly and bit her lip. She suddenly felt that it was very funny. The scene just now seemed to be a sharp contrast. She and Gu Anran seemed to always be the opposite of each other. She had su Yicheng squeezing through the crowd to buy sweet corn for her. They were both daughters, but she could only squeeze through the crowd to buy chestnuts for mo Fei. Gu Anran had su Yicheng’s doting care for her, so he fed her the corn because he was afraid that it would be hot, while she was so humble that she peeled chestnuts for that man and he didn’t even want them.

Just thinking about it made him feel that it was ridiculous. It was really too ridiculous. She knew why he had agreed to be with her. It was because she had stolen the documents behind Huang Dexing’s back and destroyed all the evidence of ‘sincerity’ and Mo Fei’s company’s business, feeling that he owed her a favor.

Xiao Xiao laughed at herself.

Standing in front of the fence on the dam of Qingjiang, su Yicheng protected Anran in front of him and hugged her from behind.

Feeling the night wind blow across her face, listening to the whistle of the night ferry not far away, and hearing the laughter of the people passing by, an ran closed her eyes in satisfaction and sighed softly. &Quot; “That’s good!”

Su Yicheng chuckled and placed his hand on her shoulder. He smiled and asked her in a gentle voice, ” what’s good about it? ”

Anran smiled and said, ” so many, so many. It feels great to have you by my side. It feels great to be pregnant with our child. It also feels great to hold hands and go shopping like today. And many, many more. They all feel great! &Quot;

Su Yicheng smiled and didn’t say anything, but he hugged her even more tightly.

The two of them stood by the river for a while and walked for a while. It wasn’t until an ran started to feel sleepy that they decided to go back.

She had walked too much today, and su Yicheng considered that she would be tired, so he went back and called a taxi directly under the dam. As for his car, he could only wait until tomorrow morning to pick it up.

After walking around for the whole day, Anran was really a little tired. She got into the taxi, leaned against su Yicheng, and fell asleep in a daze.

Su Yicheng took off his coat and put it on her, then whispered to the driver in front, ” &Quot; master, drive slowly. There’s no rush. Just drive steadily. &Quot;

The driver nodded with a smile. Through the rearview mirror, he chuckled and said, ” “Young man, you really know how to dote on your wife.”

Su Yicheng laughed and looked down at Anran in his arms. He gently lifted the bangs on her forehead and said lightly, ” a wife is supposed to be loved. &Quot;

The driver nodded with a smile. He looked at the two people in the rearview mirror and felt that they looked familiar, as if he had seen them before, but he couldn’t remember where. “Have I seen you somewhere before?” he asked, half puzzled.

Su Yicheng only smiled and didn’t say anything. He gently held Anran in his arms so that she could sleep more soundly.

Anran still hadn’t woken up even when the car slowly stopped at the entrance of the neighborhood. Su Yicheng didn’t intend to wake her up, so he paid the taxi fare and directly carried Anran out of the car. The driver quickly got out of the car to open the door for them.

Under the streetlight, su Yicheng carried Anran out of the car, and the driver finally saw su Yicheng clearly. He suddenly remembered the newspaper he had read a few days ago and exclaimed, ” “Oh, I remember now. You, you’re Mayor su!”

Su Yicheng glanced at Anran, who was in his arms. Seeing that she hadn’t been woken up by the noise, he looked at the driver with a faint smile, nodded slightly, and said in a low voice, ” “Lower your voice.”

Only then did the driver come back to his senses. He laughed awkwardly and nodded. &Quot; yes, yes. I’m sorry. I was too excited. I read the newspaper that day. &Quot;

Su Yicheng smiled, glanced at him, and simply said, ” “Then I’ll carry my wife in first.”

The driver quickly nodded. &Quot; sure, sure, sure. &Quot;

Just as su Yicheng was about to enter the lobby with Anran in his arms, the driver behind him quickly called out, ” “Mayor su, wait a moment.”

Su Yicheng turned his head and looked at him, a little puzzled. He saw him running over, panting, and then quickly took out his business card from his pocket and handed it over with both hands. He smiled and said, ” “Mayor su, this is my business card. If you need a car in the future, you can call me directly. I usually drive until 2 am. Of course, I’ll give you a 30% discount.” As he said that, he even scratched his buzz cut with his hand.

Su Yicheng took the car and nodded with a smile. &Quot; okay, I’ll call you the next time I need a car. &Quot;

“Hey, hey, hey.” The driver nodded. &Quot; I won’t disturb you then. Goodbye, Mayor su. &Quot; He ran away as he spoke.

Su Yicheng shook his head with a smile, then turned around and walked toward the elevator in the lobby with Anran in his arms.

When su Yicheng put her on the bed, Anran lay down on the bed, and her eyelids twitched before she slowly opened her eyes, perhaps because she suddenly lost su Yicheng’s embrace.

She had just woken up, and her eyes were still a little hazy. It seemed that she hadn’t seen her surroundings yet. She tightly grabbed su Yicheng’s hand and asked in a dazed and cute manner, ” “Where are we?”

Su Yicheng reached out and touched her face, then said with a faint smile, ” “We’re home.”

Upon hearing this, Anran seemed to struggle to open her eyes and look around. She recognized that this was indeed their room, and she was indeed lying on their big bed. She frowned and said, ” “I fell asleep the moment I got in the car!” She only remembered that they had stopped a taxi, got in and said that they were going home. Later, she only felt that her eyelids were very heavy, and then slowly her consciousness became blurry, and she could not remember anything.

“Yes.” Su Yicheng replied softly and coaxed, ” “Sleep a little longer. You didn’t sleep for long just now.” It had only been half an hour since they got on the bus.

Before Anran could say anything, her stomach reacted. She hadn’t eaten much today. Although she had eaten a lot of roadside snacks, they didn’t fill her stomach.

“Your two little lovers are hungry.” Anran pouted. After being with him for a long time, she didn’t have to worry too much about certain things, so she became more natural. Of course, if there was a third party present, Anran’s face would probably also turn red. However, since she was alone with su Yicheng, she was more at ease.

Su Yicheng laughed and shook his head. He helped her sit up and said, ” “Go take a shower, I’ll make you supper.”

“Yes, yes.” Anran nodded and obediently got up to take a change of clothes from the closet before entering the bathroom.

Su Yicheng got up and went to the kitchen, then opened the refrigerator to see what he could make. Because the Auntie would go to the market to buy fresh ingredients every day, the ingredients each day were basically only enough for the day’s amount, and then she would go to buy the next day after eating. Therefore, the Auntie didn’t go to work today, and there wasn’t much in the refrigerator. There were only a few tomatoes and a few eggs.

Looking at these items, su Yicheng suddenly felt that Anran and he seemed to have a special fate with these items. He laughed and took out the tomatoes and eggs, washed them, and then began to prepare.

When he opened the cupboard door and was about to take out the hanging noodles, the phone in his pocket rang. He took out his phone and picked it up without looking at the call. &Quot; Hello, who is this? ” With his other hand, he took out the noodles from the cupboard and prepared to boil the water to cook the noodles.

“It’s me.” It was a woman’s voice, soft and resentful.

Upon hearing this, su Yicheng frowned, and his hand paused. He took out his phone, looked at the caller ID, and confirmed that his guess was correct. His brows furrowed even more, and his voice suddenly became-12 degrees Celsius as he coldly said, ” “Is there something?”

On the other end of the line, Ling LAN laughed scornfully. Her tone of voice was a little strange as she said, ” “Can’t I call you if I’m fine? No matter what, we were once in a relationship. Even if it’s been a long time, you can’t deny that we did exist back then, can you?”

Su Yicheng didn’t even frown, and he didn’t even bother to reply. He took the phone away from his ear and hung up. He didn’t have the time to listen to her talk about this now. Besides, there was no turning back for the past. It didn’t matter whether it really existed in the past or not, especially in a relationship. It was impossible to turn back and start all over again. It was good to say that he had mysophobia in his relationship, but he would never forgive the betrayal.

She turned on the fire again and waited for the water to boil. Less than 10 seconds later, the phone rang again. It was Ling LAN again. Su Yicheng frowned and reached out to turn it off. This time, he didn’t even bother to pick up the call.

She seemed to be competing with him in patience. She would call again after she hung up, as if she would only stop when he picked up.

After hanging up three more times, when Ling LAN called for the fourth time, su Yicheng directly turned off the gas stove and picked up the phone. Without waiting for Ling LAN to speak, he directly said, ” &Quot; Ling LAN, do you think there’s any meaning in doing this? ”

On the other end of the phone, Ling LAN sneered and accused, ” “Su Yicheng, it’s all your fault that I’m like this! If it wasn’t for you,”

Su Yicheng didn’t wait for her to finish and directly interrupted her, ” &Quot; if you insist on calling me to reminisce about the past, then there’s no need for that. I don’t want to hear it. Also, please be clear that you betrayed me first! &Quot;

He had always thought of himself as a traditional man, and he was even more so when it came to relationships. When he loved someone, he could give it his all. Perhaps he would be too busy and neglect something, but when he loved someone, he would only have her in his heart. He would not give other women any chance. This was his attitude towards relationships, but similarly, if he decided to let go, he would be very decisive and would not hesitate at all. This was what he believed to be the best way to reduce the damage, and it was the same for himself and others.

“Hehe.” &Quot; alright, ” Ling LAN sneered. &Quot; let’s not talk about the past. Then, our Ling family and your su family can be considered friends. &Quot;

&Quot; if that’s what you’re talking about, then I only have one thing to say. If people don’t offend me, I won’t offend them! &Quot; It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought of giving Ling Chuanjiang a chance, but he shouldn’t have had his eyes on Anran. Since he had done it, he didn’t have to care about their feelings, because they were the ones who tore off their faces first!

“Must you be so ruthless this time?” She was so determined that her father had no chance of turning things around, and he would even have to spend the rest of his life in prison!

“Have I wronged him in any way?” Su Yicheng retorted. He wouldn’t be so despicable as to malign someone for no reason. The information he had collected was all based on facts, and the corresponding time and events could be found in each of them. There was no way he would malign him.

&Quot; but, you … &Quot; Ling LAN still wanted to say something, but su Yicheng was already starting to get impatient.”Look at what you’ve done to others. Don’t blindly think that others owe you something. I won’t answer your calls. Don’t call me again.” After that, he hung up the phone.

She reached out and pinched her slightly sore eyebrows, then threw the phone to the side.

When Anran came out of the room after taking a shower, su Yicheng happened to be dousing the noodles with water.

An ran saw it and laughed. &Quot; ha! It’s my specialty. &Quot;

Su Yicheng pinched her nose and asked her to sit down on the high chair. Then, he handed her the chopsticks and spoon, and sat down opposite her. &Quot; it’s still a little hot, eat slowly. &Quot;

“Yes.” Anran nodded as she scooped up a spoonful of soup. Then, her expression became a little grave. She picked up a piece of noodles with her chopsticks, blew on it, and put it into her mouth. Her expression became even more grave.

Su Yicheng looked at her pale face and frowned. He lowered his head and took a bite. It tasted pretty good, so there shouldn’t be any problem!

He added eggs and tomatoes, and this time, Anran’s face immediately became sullen. She looked at su Yicheng with a wronged and bitter face, as if she was about to cry but couldn’t.

Su Yicheng was stunned. &Quot; what’s wrong? ” he asked hurriedly. &Quot; is it not to your liking? ”

Anran shook her head innocently, pouted, and said, ” &Quot; it’s all your fault. Why did you have to make this noodles? even my specialty noodles aren’t as good as yours. What can I make for you in the future? ”

Su Yicheng was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react. He laughed and reached out to rub her head, saying lovingly, ” “Silly girl.”

&Quot; I’ve decided. From tomorrow onwards, I’m going to learn cooking from Mrs. Zhang! &Quot; Anran said with a serious face, as if she had made a great decision.

Su Yicheng only smiled and didn’t express his opinion.

After eating and drinking her fill, su Yicheng took his clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower, while Anran lay back down on the bed. Because she had just slept, she wasn’t very sleepy now. Lying on the bed, she picked up the magazine she had been reading before and casually flipped through it.

However, she didn’t know why, but she felt uncomfortable no matter where she put her legs. It was as if something was pressing down on her legs, but she felt a little sore and tired.

When su Yicheng came out of the bathroom, he saw Anran sitting in a half-sitting position, massaging her feet with her hands. When she was tired, her hands drooped.

He used a dry towel to dry his hair until it was half-dry. Then, he put the towel aside and sat down beside her. &Quot; what’s wrong? ” he asked. As he spoke, he lifted her feet and placed them on his thighs.

Anran furrowed her brows and said with some distress, ” “My legs are a little sore.”

Su Yicheng smiled, pulled her hand away, and began to take over her work with his large palm. He said with a smile, ” “You’ve been walking for the whole day, and the day is sore. Besides, you’re pregnant.”

“It’s only been four months,”

Su Yicheng massaged her feet to ease the soreness and said, ” “But you’re pregnant with twins. The doctor also said that your belly is about the same size as other people’s at six months.”

&Quot; what should I do? I even asked Lin Li to help me ask about the photo studio! &Quot; An ran pouted. She still wanted to take Meimei’s photo!

“It’s okay. We’ll take the baby to take a photo.” Su Yicheng tried to comfort her.

Anran suddenly fell silent. She didn’t say anything and just stared at him.

&Quot; what’s wrong? ” su Yicheng asked, amused. &Nbsp;

Anran pouted and asked him, ” “Do you think I’ve become ugly after I got pregnant?” After she got pregnant, she couldn’t help but want to do a lot of things. She felt that she was not like herself anymore.

Su Yicheng chuckled, let go of her leg, then sat down, pulled her into his arms, and said with a smile, ” “Silly girl, what are you thinking about? my wife is still as beautiful as before.”

&Quot; not at all! You’re obviously much fatter than before! &Quot; He only knew how to coax her. She had looked in the mirror when she was taking a shower just now and felt that she had put on a lot of weight. She did not look like she used to.

“It’s true.” Su Yicheng nodded heavily and said, ” I think you’re even more beautiful than before. I like the feeling of your chubby body. &Quot; As he said that, his hand began to roam all over her body.

“Go away, you pervert!” Anran smacked his hand in a bad mood, and he diverted her attention to guard against his unruly big palm.

Su Yicheng chuckled and whispered in her ear, ” “I like the way you are now, because this place has also become bigger.” As he said that, he reached out and placed his hand on her chest.

Anran blushed and slapped his hand away. &Quot; you stinky gangster! &Quot; she said.
