One look at these two cute outfits and it was clear they weren’t for her and Xie Huaizheng.
After all, they were so small, they looked more like...
Su Zhaozhao looked up at Xie Huaizheng.
Xie Huaizheng chuckled. "Are these for our future children? Aunt Yun is so thoughtful."
As Xie Huaizheng spoke, he reached out and held the two outfits.
Xie Huaizheng’s hands were large, and the two small sweaters were dwarfed by his palms, making them look exceptionally tiny.
And they just happened to be one pink and one blue.
"Aunt Yun’s hoping we have two, a boy and a girl preferably," Xie Huaizheng interpreted. His gaze then fell upon Su Zhaozhao, a hint of flirtatiousness in his expression.
Su Zhaozhao felt her cheeks flush instantly. She quickly shook her head. "No, no way. I’m still young, I don’t want to have kids so soon."
She still had so much she wanted to do. It seemed she couldn’t return to her own world for the time being, but if she was going to stay in this one, Su Zhaozhao felt there was still a lot she needed to accomplish.
For example, starting her own business and making more money.
And improving her education. She had learned that if she didn’t want to attend high school, she could go to night school and still be able to register for the college entrance exams.
Everything was currently in a state of reconstruction. The country was short on talent and worried about brain drain, so the restrictions on the college entrance exams weren’t as strict as in modern times.
People from all walks of life were allowed to take the exams.
She had to improve her education too; it would make things more convenient in the future.
"Don’t worry, we won’t have kids so soon. Our Zhaozhao is still a child herself."
Xie Huaizheng wrapped his arm around Su Zhaozhao. He hadn’t had his fill of their world for two, either.
The little miss was so soft and cute. He could never kiss her enough and didn’t want her to become a mother so quickly either.
Su Zhaozhao took the outfits from Xie Huaizheng’s hands. Looking at the knitting, she saw it was quite fine and tight. The material was also very soft and comfortable to the touch.
But they were for a child. Su Zhaozhao couldn’t help but find it a pity, wondering just how many years it would be.
Just then, two people, a man and a woman, approached in the distance.
Su Zhaozhao’s gaze fell on the people before her, and she froze.
’What the hell?’
’That friend of Zhou Chengguo’s is actually with the female lead, Gu Qingran?’
Gu Qingran was talking to him, but the man’s expression was cold. Even though Gu Qingran was all smiles and chattering incessantly, he didn’t seem to be reacting at all.
Su Zhaozhao was a little surprised. She turned to look at Xie Huaizheng.
Xie Huaizheng’s eyes were also on them, and he even narrowed them slightly.
Su Zhaozhao knew Xie Huaizheng well enough to tell he was seriously sizing the other man up.
For some reason, Su Zhaozhao’s heart suddenly began to pound wildly.
’It can’t be, can it?’
’Could it be that the plot is still being forced back onto its original track?’
’The male lead will end up falling for the female lead after all.’
Su Zhaozhao nervously bit her lip.
’But Xie Huaizheng’s gaze is still on Gu Qingran. Is he attracted to her?’
’Just like it was described in the novel, falling for the female lead and getting together with her.’
’Will he divorce me?’
Su Zhaozhao was so focused on nervously watching Xie Huaizheng and Gu Qingran’s reactions that she completely overlooked Xie Huaizhen.
Xie Huaizhen had also seen Su Zhaozhao and Xie Huaizheng together from a distance. In fact, he could have easily avoided them if he’d wanted to, but Xie Huaizhen chose not to.
’He wasn’t sure why himself. He probably just wanted to see how Su Zhaozhao and Xie Huaizheng interacted.’
’She’s changed so much. She came here, not for him, but for Xie Huaizheng.’
’It’s so strange. When did she meet Xie Huaizheng?’ Xie Huaizhen had no idea. All he knew was that Xie Huaizheng’s name was so similar to his own.
’She didn’t choose to be with him, and then she found someone with a name so much like his.’ Xie Huaizhen had no idea what Su Zhaozhao was thinking. ’Is she trying to embarrass me?’
’But that doesn’t seem right. They’d run into each other a few times before, yet she didn’t seem to recognize him.’
Xie Huaizhen’s gaze fell on Su Zhaozhao’s hands. He could see that she was holding two small, ball-like objects, like little tufts of wool.
Gu Qingran also saw Su Zhaozhao and Xie Huaizheng.
’To think they’d run into each other here.’ Gu Qingran couldn’t help but feel the urge to laugh.
She sized up Xie Huaizhen. ’I wonder if Xie Huaizhen will tell Xie Huaizheng the truth?’
’Maybe Su Zhaozhao has been using Xie Huaizheng as a stand-in for Xie Huaizhen all this time?’
’Finding a man even more outstanding than the big shot just to show off... It’s so disgusting!’
’Still, I just don’t get how Su Zhaozhao even met this Xie Huaizheng.’
She had heard from Lin Shumo that this Xie Huaizheng was apparently quite impressive—even more so than Xie Huaizhen.
Gu Qingran felt a deep sense of injustice.
’Why does Su Zhaozhao get to have such a good life?’
’A woman that awful, that malicious, who treated the big shot so badly—how could she end up marrying a man so many times better than him?’
’No, no, no... In my past life, I never heard a single thing about Xie Huaizheng online later on. Maybe he just gets discharged and goes home, with no follow-up to his story.’
’Su Zhaozhao will definitely regret it so much she’ll be kicking herself.’
But then, she looked at Xie Huaizhen. Ever since he had spotted Su Zhaozhao, his gaze had been fixed on her, as if he had completely forgotten that Gu Qingran was standing right next to him.
’Don’t tell me he still has lingering feelings for Su Zhaozhao?’
Gu Qingran immediately said to Su Zhaozhao, "Zhaozhao, out for a walk with your husband?"
She had no choice but to bring up the fact that Su Zhaozhao and Xie Huaizheng were married right then.
There was nothing for it. Originally, she had wanted to wait, but she couldn’t. She was worried Xie Huaizhen would fall for Su Zhaozhao.
’She looks like a vixen, even Lin Shumo was captivated by her.’
As soon as she said this, Xie Huaizhen’s eyes turned incredibly cold. He looked at Su Zhaozhao. "You’re married?"
Su Zhaozhao nodded. "That’s right."
For some reason, she felt like the way Xie Huaizhen was looking at her, it was as if he wanted to eat her alive. He seemed exceptionally angry.
She was a little confused. ’Why is this man acting so strange?’
’Is he still mad at me over the thing with Zhou Chengguo?’
’He must already know that I’m the one who sent Zhou Chengguo to the Public Security Bureau, right?’
But she didn’t regret doing it.
’But this man is Zhou Chengguo’s friend, after all. Even if he seems to side with reason over personal ties, he might still think I went too far.’
"You know I sent Zhou Chengguo to the Public Security Bureau, don’t you? I don’t think I did anything wrong." As she said this, Su Zhaozhao ducked behind Xie Huaizheng.
Because she noticed the man’s gaze growing colder and colder, sharp as a knife.
Such a handsome man, who usually looked so gentle and refined, now seemed like an iceberg.
