Many men don’t enjoy shopping, let alone going to the market to buy groceries.

“Dear wife, isn’t it expected that I accompany you? Normally, I don’t have time because of my work commitments. Isn’t it good to spend more time with you when I’m off-duty?” Chu Molin thought, how else could they strengthen their bond?

“Okay, why shouldn’t I take advantage of having free labor,” Qin Xue chuckled, looking at Chu Molin.

“Hmm, that’s right. Now that you have me, your humble laborer, here, why don’t you buy whatever else you need so 1 can carry it for you. Otherwise, when I’m not available to accompany you later, you might find it hard to carry your purchases.” Chu Molin looked at his wife’s slender arms and legs.

“Nah, no need to buy anything now. There’s nothing much I need to buy for the time being. We can come back when necessary,” Qin Xue said after some thought.

“Alright then, let’s wait for our ride home without worry.” Chu Molin glanced at his wristwatch. It was already four o’clock.

They could start cooking dinner as soon as they got home. Looking at his

wife’s bare, slender wrist, he made a mental note to buy her a watch.

When their bus arrived, the couple found seats at the back. Chu Molin scanned the bus and its passengers as though he had X-ray vision.

Looking over at his wife sitting calmly beside him, one could scarcely imagine their harmonious interactions in these moments.

“l wonder how An Hao’s doing?” Qin Xue muttered, her gaze following the scenery fluttering past outside the window.

“Don’t worry about it. Zhaozi may seem unreliable on the surface, but he’s a good guy. Otherwise, do you think Xiao Qi, who dotes on An Hao so much, would let his sister marry him?” Chu Molin reassured her, pondering their seemingly rogue-ish group of friends.

While they might look tough, but underneath they were all, softies. After all, no one raised in a big family was straightforward.

“Hmm, that’s true. It’s clear they all dote on An Hao. How nice it is to be cherished like that,” Qin Xue murmured wistfully, her thoughts drifting off somewhere as she stared blankly out the window.

Chu Molin panicked slightly. There it was again, that distant air about his wife.

His hand immediately clasped her smaller one, only letting out a sigh of relief after feeling the warmth in his palm. She was still present, thank goodness.

The sudden handholding startled Qin Xue, and she turned to find a panicky Chu Molin. Her expression was one of confusion.

What happened? His reaction puzzled her. “Chu Molin, what’s the matter?” “Xue’er, please don’t leave me,” Chu Molin pleaded, gazing at his wife,

“Chu Molin, have you gone mad? When did I ever say I was going to leave you?” Qin Xue chuckled, finding the man amusing.

“l don’t care! No matter when, no matter what happens, you can’t leave me!” The fear in the man’s eyes left Qin Xue frazzled.

“Okay, I promise you. I will never leave you,” Qin Xue agreed as she thought about the accolades others showered on this man.

He was said to be highly talented, an outstanding researcher every year, a decisive problem-solver who untangled numerous difficult matters.

It was said that there hadn’t been a single failure among the tasks he’d undertaken so far, which spoke volumes about his capabilities.

However, hearing this only evoked sympathy in Qin Xue. Behind his strength and achievements were untold efforts and hardships.

And now, this strong man was gripping her hand, asking her not to leave him.

The fear was so evident in his eyes, and in that moment, Qin Xue realized that this man wasn’t as tough as he appeared to be.

At the very least, he was afraid of her leaving him. Perhaps everyone has something they fear losing. Just like how she didn’t want her mother to leave her.

Qin Xue felt lucky that such an outstanding man had fallen in love with her in such a short time.

Qin Xue felt blessed. She was loved by her mother and grandparents in the past, cherished by Chu Molin now, and they would have their children to love in the future. She was content..
