Shen Birong grabbed Luo Chao's arm and hurriedly ran away, leaving Uncle Yang there laughing heartily.
Luo Chao stood by the school gate and said to Shen Birong, "I'll wait here, you should head back early."
"Hmm, I'll go then," Shen Birong felt reluctant but she knew she had to leave. She walked a few steps forward, then suddenly turned around and said, "Luo Chao, actually, I know you saw the words I carved on the tree. Today has been my happiest day in years. I wish you happiness!"
After saying that, Shen Birong ran into the distance, tears streaming down her face. In fact, she saw Luo Chao's tears too. She knew Luo Chao was soone who valued his pride and couldn't say it out loud, but this was enough.
Luo Chao stood there dazed, motionless, his heart aching so much that he couldn't speak. Is this what they call fate? Honestly, Luo Chao really wanted to leave everything behind and chase after her, but he couldn't forget those nightmares. He was truly afraid that one day he might hurt her.
At this mont, Luo Chao could no longer treat anyone with an ordinary heart.
"Beep beep!" A horn sounded not far away, startling Luo Chao. Looking over, he saw Ning Wanxi driving up. Even though Nanning Town was remote, it could still be accurately found using navigation.
Luo Chao got into the car and was greeted by a face as cold as could be, making the whole car feel like an ice cave. Ning Wanxi said coldly, "After playing for a whole day and night, surely you've played enough."
"I ran into so trouble, so I couldn't co back last night," Luo Chao explained.
Ning Wanxi sneered, "Who was that woman just now? Was she the trouble you ntioned? But then again, eting up with an old fla can be a bit troubleso."
"..." Luo Chao was left speechless. He never thought that Ning would see it all, but so be it. It's not like they were caught in bed. Besides, with their marriage in na only, was there a need for Ning to be angry?
Luo Chao pursed his lips: "Ning, I just ran into her. An old schoolmate. As for last night, I ant Zhang Yufei and I ran into so trouble."
"You an Director Zhang, right? I know, what kind of trouble did you guys run into?" After all, yesterday Ning Wanxi had called her uncle, Lan Guoming, or else why would Zhang Yufei co back after work?
"Soone wanted to take out Director Zhang, and she happened to be taking back at the ti," Luo Chao said casually, but Ning Wanxi heard the danger in his words, her heart skipped a beat, and with a frown, she asked, "So you saved her?"
Luo Chao nodded, "Yeah, the car fell into a small river, so I had to walk her back to the police station, which took all day."
Ning Wanxi didn't say anything further, while Luo Chao smiled and said, "Ning, the way you perford in front of my parents was beyond my expectations. Now, you get jealous just because I t an old schoolmate. Don't tell you've fallen for !"
"Do you believe I'll kick you out of the car!" Ning Wanxi's face was full of killing intent as she said, "I only perford well because I hoped you would make a good impression on my parents too. I'm angry because you made your parents so worried, so don't flatter yourself!"
With a buzz, Ning Wanxi finished speaking and, without letting Luo Chao say another word, stomped on the gas pedal, sending the car roaring forward.
Back ho, Luo Chao was imdiately scolded by his parents. However, after Luo Chao told them about his experience last night, Qin Yuzhen was scared, almost stripping her son's clothes off to check him, though thankfully, he was fine.
Because Luo Chao was in danger, he couldn't co ho, which made Qin Yuzhen and Lu Feng blush with embarrassnt, realizing they had wrongly blad their son.
After a day and night of toil, Luo Chao sat quietly on the sofa watching TV, now that it was already evening. In the kitchen, it wasn't his mother cooking but that Tengyuan Group president, Ning Wanxi, who always carried herself with such loftiness!
When Qin Yuzhen ca out of the kitchen and plopped down next to him, Luo Chao was astonished and said, "Mom, why aren't you cooking tonight, and instead, Wanxi is?"
Qin Yuzhen chuckled warmly, "Wanxi said she wanted us to taste her skills. Being a guest, how could I let her cook? But she insisted, so what could I do?"
"The grand president of Tengyuan actually personally cooking, who would believe it," Luo Chao muttered to himself, and Qin Yuzhen asked, "Little Xuan, what are you mumbling about?"
Luo Chao grinned sheepishly, "Nothing."
After half an hour, the table was filled with a sumptuous feast. Sitting at the table, Luo Chao could sll the mouth-watering aroma, and every dish had an excellent color. He couldn't resist grabbing a piece of braised pork, which was sweet but not greasy, rich in flavor, even more delicious than his mom's cooking.
Qin Yuzhen, after tasting a few dishes, said with delight, "Wanxi, I really didn't expect you to be such a great cook," and she looked at Luo Chao with a grin, "Son, even a mother has to admire your taste, finding such a good wife. If you two start a family, you'll have delicious food for life."
Ning Wanxi blushed and said, "Auntie, I'm not as good as you say."
Qin Yuzhen laughed heartily, "Good, really too good."
Lu Feng, enjoying the delicious al, even though he rarely drank, couldn't help but pour himself a large glass of white wine, very delighted. Wanxi was absolutely the model of a national daughter-in-law!
After the al, the family had never been so happy, and Qin Yuzhen quickly tidied up the dishes, fearing the obedient and sensible daughter-in-law, Ning Wanxi, would run off to wash dishes, which would be embarrassing.
After dinner, the four of them sat in the living room watching TV, with Ning Wanxi and Luo Chao sitting together. Luo Chao subconsciously moved, keeping at least three fists' distance. If he accidentally touched her, who knows if she would kick him, which would be hard to deal with.
"Ning, where did you sleep last night?" Luo Chao asked quietly while the parents weren't paying attention.
Ning Wanxi replied coolly, "Of course in your room, where else did you think I slept."
"And tonight?" This was what worried Luo Chao the most. In these open tis, bringing a girlfriend ho and not sleeping together is impossible. But his mom was suspicious, so they really had to share a room.
Ning Wanxi whispered, "Your room doesn't even have a couch, so you'll have to sleep on the floor."
But that's my room! Luo Chao wanted to protest, but such a delicate beauty couldn't be made to sleep on the floor, so he could only do it himself.
