When Shen Xiran heard the sound, he turned around and saw Si Lianye carrying bags of varying sizes. He could vaguely see some fruits and vegetables inside.

So, did he go out just to help her buy food?

There was no doubt that the answer was yes.

Seeing him walk towards the kitchen, Shen Xiran suddenly had a hint of interest. In Shen Xiran's eyes, this man was a person with a serious obsession with cleanliness, and he had always been against entering the kitchen. However, at this moment, he actually walked into her kitchen and acted as if he wanted to show off his skills.

This made Shen Xiran puzzled.

He walked slowly towards the kitchen and stopped right at the entrance. From her point of view, he could only see Si Lianye's back. At this moment, he was wearing a black suit.

Shen Xiran just watched quietly.

That pair of eyes was somewhat complicated, with a hint of confusion and hatred within …

Every time she saw him, the old pain spread through her bones.

"Why are you standing there? Go and rest for a while." Si Lianye, who had always been sharp, knew of her existence from the moment she stood at the kitchen door. He had been waiting for her to speak, but she kept silent.

However, after Shen Xiran heard his words, he didn't move his feet at all. Instead, he raised his head and met the sharp gaze of Shen Xiran.

Although he didn't know why Ye Zichen was cooking and didn't know when he learned about cooking from Shen Zimo … Shen Xiran thought bitterly. When he thought of this, he suddenly felt that the man in front of him was a bit eyesore. He looked at the dishes cut on the wooden nail board. Obviously, this was not the first time he was cooking.

She immediately went forward and looked at the dishes he had cut, then casually waved her hand …

Suddenly, bright red tomatoes fell to the ground, along with some broccoli and green peppers …

"Shen Xiran, what are you doing …" Si Lianye's face displayed a trace of anger as she looked at the dishes that he had cut up on the ground.

However, thinking that her tone was too harsh, Si Lianye took a deep breath and asked again, "Xiran, why did you do that?" This time, Si Lianye's tone of voice was noticeably softer. It was no longer as aggressive as before.

Shen Xiran lowered his head and looked at the colorful dishes on the floor. Her eyes gradually filled with determination. She said coldly, "I should be the one asking you that." Don't forget, this is my home, and you can't do whatever you want. "

Then, his eyes gradually closed, and his forehead was wrinkled. Shen Xiran already knew that this was the sign of him getting angry, but she was no longer the little lamb from before.

When a person was fearless, there was nothing to be afraid of.

Their gazes met, and Shen Xiran also looked at him silently. His gaze was filled with genuine disgust …

"I just want to make you a meal."

In the end, Si Lianye said with a defeated tone.

If this was before, every time Shen Xiran got angry with him, Si Lianye would win because she cared too much about him and couldn't leave him.

But now, it seemed like the tides had turned?

It was just that he did not care about her. Perhaps it was just a man's slut playing tricks on him, or perhaps it was because he felt guilty towards himself. So, from the moment they met again, he had been pestering him, Shen Xiran thought.

"No need."

Shen Xiran said with determination.

Si Lianye's heart ached when she saw her stubborn appearance and the estrangement from her body. However, when she thought of what she had done to her, a trace of heartache finally appeared in her eyes. She squatted down to pick up the items on the ground and threw them into the trash can.

Shen Xiran looked at the man squatting on the ground and felt that he was a stranger.

Was this really that insufferable man?

"To suddenly treat me so well, are you interested in my other kidney?"

When Shen Xiran said this, he had a faint smile on his face the whole time. His eyes were staring intently at his black hair.

When Si Lianye, who was packing, heard her words, her body froze and her heart ached slightly. Her hand, which had stopped in midair, paused for a moment before she continued packing slowly.

Reasonable mistakes and heartache rendered him speechless for a moment.

Shen Xiran looked at him silently picking up the things on the floor and snorted. Then, he turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

However, she still forced herself to stay in the bedroom, locking the door at the same time. When she came to the bedside, she carefully laid down on it, and when the pain in her hands gradually eased up, Shen Xiran's eyes would occasionally look towards the direction of the door.

He …

Still cooking?

Could he have already left?

One question after another popped up in Shen Xiran's mind. He kept tossing it over and over asking her to sit on the bed.

In the end, she couldn't suppress the doubts in her heart. She got up and walked outside. As soon as she arrived at the dining room, she smelled a fragrance, which made Shen Xiran, who was already hungry, even hungrier.

Unexpectedly, after leaving for so many years, he had truly learned how to cook.

Looking at the dishes arranged orderly on the table, Shen Xiran was a bit surprised. This reminded her of the past.

The two had just confirmed their relationship, and Shen Xiran moved into Si Lianye's home. Everyday, she was like a newlyweds, working in the kitchen and waiting for her newlywed husband to come home.

Sometimes, when Shen Xiran was busy in the kitchen and was in a bit of a mess, a pair of strong and forceful arms wrapped tightly around her waist, causing all the hardships in her heart to disappear and replaced with coquettishness. Afterwards, when they didn't even eat, Si Lianye would treat her shy and timid appearance as dinner, then carry her into the room and have a good meal.

"What are you thinking about?"

When she suddenly heard a warm breath, Shen Xiran couldn't help but tremble.

That kind of depraved feeling … She absolutely could not experience it once, because she knew that after being gentle, she would have to pay a terrible price.

As for her, there was no hope in her life, and there was nothing left to pay for it. For the rest of her life, she only wanted those who had hurt her to pay the appropriate price.

Her eyes that were filled with hatred and hatred gradually faded away, replaced by a cold and detached expression.

"Even after all these years, you are still so rude and frivolous to women." When Shen Xiran said this, he did not move his arm away. Instead, he said it in a light tone, as if he was talking about someone else's matter, and was emotionless.
