Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 145: Chapter 156: So Tired in My Heart

”I can.” Mu Xingfeng slightly curled his lips, looking very pleased.

Only after leaving the fish stall did An Ran realize that the stout woman selling fish had definitely misunderstood them. Feeling a bit awkward, she chuckled dryly, ”That lady was funny. How do we look like a couple? We clearly look more like siblings.”

Mu Xingfeng just responded with an ”Hmm”, but he thought to himself: The public has sharp eyes.

Afterwards, An Ran noticed a subtle detail. No matter what they were buying, the vendors at the vegetable stalls either referred to Mu Xingfeng as her boyfriend or husband. Not a single one mentioned siblings.

An Ran gritted her teeth quietly. You gossiping vendors are truly something! Can’t you just sell vegetables instead of randomly speculating about people’s relationships? The sound of this face-slapping is really deafening.

The person next to her, however, seemed to get more enthusiastic the longer they shopped, dragging her small hand through the market even after most of the shopping was done.

”Hey, Instructor Mu, can we go home now?” An Ran urged, unable to bear any longer. She had no doubt that Mu Xingfeng planned to spend the whole day here.

”Hmm?” Mu Xingfeng glanced at the stuff they were carrying - indeed, there was quite a lot. Then he saw the little girl pouting, clearly unhappy.

”Tired?” Mu Xingfeng asked.

”Yes, a bit. We’ve bought everything, let’s head back.” An Ran turned around and walked towards the parking lot, feeling emotionally drained.

Mu Xingfeng still held her small hand. The little girl’s hand was soft and tender, as if it had no bones, making it exceptionally comfortable to hold.

”If you’re tired, we could eat out,” suggested Mu Xingfeng.

”No, we’ve already bought the groceries,” besides, she wasn’t really tired.

”Alright, then I’ll help you cook,” Mu Xingfeng said cheerfully.

”Help me? I thought you couldn’t cook?” An Ran looked at him in surprise.

”I can learn,” Mu Xingfeng felt it wasn’t a big deal. He had always been a quick learner, just lazy about cooking. But if it was with the little girl, he actually looked forward to it.

An Ran leaned back in the car seat and sighed, ”Better not, I’m worried we might end up with no lunch to eat.”

The disastrous outcome of the last dumpling incident reminded her that Mu Xingfeng cooking was just a waste of food.

Seemingly understanding the little girl’s thoughts, Mu Xingfeng nonchalantly said, ”It’s okay, next time we can buy more groceries. These vegetable vendors are really honest and cute. We can support their business more.”

Nani? Honest? Cute? Why didn’t she feel that way?

An Ran didn’t want to talk, so she simply closed her eyes.

Seeing her, Mu Xingfeng thought she was truly tired and stopped talking. He turned down the music volume in the car and rolled up the windows.

Back home, An Ran dove into the kitchen to start preparing.

Although she had cooked once for Mu Xingfeng before, that time was too rushed and not carefully prepared. The ingredients were also chosen based on what was available at the supermarket.

This time, she wanted to show off her chef-level skills, letting Mu Xingfeng know that having a tenant like her was absolutely fortunate for him.

An Ran was focused on cleaning the fish when she heard footsteps behind her. She looked up to see Mu Xingfeng putting on an apron, the lace apron they had bought at the market today.

While tying the apron, Mu Xingfeng asked, ”What should I do?”
