Chu Molin noticed that Oin Xue’s expression changed after they arrived at the market. He looked around but didn’t find anything unusual. “Xue’er, what’s wrong?”

Qin Xue didn’t expect this man to notice her momentary distraction. His keenness and alertness were truly astonishing, no wonder he was already a deputy section chief at such a young age.

“Oh, it’s nothing. I just remembered that not long ago, I saved a patient with a heart condition at this market. I wonder how she is now, whether she’s better or not.”

“Whether she’s better or not, you did your best to save her at the time. It was her luck to have met you when she had an attack. If it’s meant to be, you’ll meet her again in the future.” Chu Molin patted his wife’s head.

“Yes, you’re right. I did my best to save her from a life-threatening situation anyway. As long as she takes care of herself in the future, it’ll be fine. I was just overthinking it.” Qin Xue looked at the man beside her.

...
Qin Xue: “Chu Molin.”

Chu Molin: “Hmm?”

“Having you is really nice.” Qin Xue looked at the man and gave him a gentle smile.

Seeing the man’s warm smile, her heart moved, and she chuckled: Xue’er, it’s really nice to have you too. Thank you for coming into my life.

“Chu Molin, let’s go. I’ll take you to see our clothing store.” Qin Xue took the man’s hand and took the lead in walking forward.

“Alright.” Chu Molin followed with his long legs.

Not long after they started walking, they saw oranges being sold ahead. Qin Xue looked at the green and yellow-orange peels and couldn’t help but swallow her saliva.

“Chu Molin, I want to eat that.” Qin Xue pointed to the place selling oranges. “Hmm, you wait here, I’ll go buy some for you.” Chu Molin looked in the direction Qin Xue pointed at and laughed as he saw her eager eyes.

Leading his little wife over, he squatted down to help her choose oranges.

“Xue’er, do you want sour ones or sweet ones?” Chu Molin, holding a green-peel orange in one hand and a yellow-peel orange in the other, looked up at the woman and asked.

“Pick some of both, I want to eat both kinds. Do you want the sweet ones or the sour ones?

Just pick more of the kind you like.” Qin Xue recalled her previous mention of planting orange seeds in her space but then forgot to do it, so she needed to remember this time.

Chu Molin thought about it and picked half of each kind. He didn’t really like eating these things.

Since his little wife liked them, he would pick more for her to eat slowly later on.

Qin Xue took a yellow-peel orange, peeled off a segment, and put it in her mouth. It was so sweet, and her eyes became crescent-shaped. She peeled another one:

“Chu Molin, lower your head, open your mouth.” As soon as Chu Molin lowered his head, the orange piece was placed inside his mouth.

“Chu Molin, is it sweet?” Qin Xue didn’t forget to ask the man while eating by herself.

“Hmm, it’s very sweet.” Chu Molin didn’t want to eat at first, but seeing the woman enjoying it so much, he decided to taste it and share her happiness.

Qin Xue placed one segment after another into her mouth, occasionally feeding one to the man. In just a few bites, an orange was finished.

“Chu Molin, I want to eat more.” Chu Molin opened the bag he was carrying and handed it to Qin Xue.

Qin Xue took a green-peel orange in one hand and a yellow-peel orange in the other. She had just eaten a yellow-peel one, so now it was time to try the green-peel orange to see if it was sour.

Breaking it open, she put a segment in her mouth. Hiss, as expected of a green-peel orange, it wasn’t ripe, and it was truly sour.

But why did it taste so refreshing? Hehe, she peeled another piece and called Chu Molin to lower his head before putting it in his mouth.

She watched Chu Molin laugh and wanted to see his expression when he tasted the sourness.

Chu Molin saw the woman’s mischievous smile and chewed the orange in his mouth. Hiss, it was really sour, like his teeth were being ground down, but there was no expression on his cold face.

Qin Xue looked and saw that there was no expression. Was it not sour?

She peeled another piece and put it in her mouth. Hiss, it was very sour. She thought about it and realized that the man was not expressionless because he didn’t feel sour, but because he was used to hiding his emotions, so she couldn’t see any reaction. That was no fun at all..
