C16

After the car drove for around half an hour, Huo Subai stopped the car and brought her into the supermarket.

He pushed the shopping cart through the fresh air, proficiently purchasing it. "Shrimp tonight, okay?"

Slight Chill, "?"

Furthermore, his tone was too intimate, only couples who had been married for many years would talk to each other like that when they went shopping in the supermarket. Her father and Aunt Xiao were like this, and she was very uncomfortable, she wanted to say that she could find a place to eat whenever she wanted, but it would also make people feel that her gratitude was not sincere, so she controlled her temper and nodded.

When she paid the bill, it was slightly cold, but Huo Subai was still faster than her by a step.

Seeing her frown, he gave a rare smile, "I'll pay for the money. When you go back to cook, I won't argue with you, okay?"

Slight Chill: "?"

It was already eight o'clock when he returned to the hotel where Huo Subai was staying.

Within the luxurious suite, although Slight Chill occupied the kitchen, she was somewhat helpless in the face of the vegetables and prawns on the chopping board.

She did not have much culinary skills, and Xia Zhiyu was the one who hired her before she was seventeen. After she turned 17, she wanted to learn culinary skills to curry favor with Xia Zhiyu, but because their relationship had deteriorated to the freezing point, she had no motivation to continue learning.

Now, standing in the kitchen, she was embarrassed.

After Huo Subai finished washing the fruits, he looked at her and asked, "Can you eat anything tonight with such a speed?"

"I'm not good at cooking." Slight Chill scratched her head in embarrassment.

"Let me do it. You go to the living room."

She ate a little fruit pad in the living room and then went back to the kitchen, hoping to help him. She just sat there waiting for him to make dinner.

Huo Subai wore a curry coloured apron, the sleeves of his white shirt were rolled up, revealing his firm and powerful forearms, even with the spatula in hand, he looked as elegant as a jade.

It turned out that even though some men wore aprons and held a spatula, they didn't look at all out of place. Instead, they exuded an indescribable sexiness.

"What are you standing there for? I'm not helping you. Just go and wait. The meal will start in ten minutes."

Slight Chill, "?" Why did he know what she was thinking?

He had to go back into the living room.

Huo Subai could see that she was a little afraid and uneasy when she was with him.

Angele put the meat, vegetables and soup down on the small coffee table in the living room. The two of them sat on the soft carpet.

Looking at his superb dinner, Slight Chill couldn't help but have a whole new level of respect for him. He was truly a versatile person.

Huo Subai opened a bottle of red wine.

"Drink some, and be brave. If you don't, you'll be too scared to speak."

He laughed at her, a little displeased. "So what if I drink? My alcohol is super lousy anyway." When the alcohol came, she asked him why he wanted to marry her.

He smiled down and poured her a drink.

After drinking a few cups, she became drunk from being cold. She held her cheeks and muttered: "Professor Huo, have you been harmed by the betrayal of the person you love?"

Huo Subai was drinking wine, and looking at her through the crystal glass with a sad look on her face, the red wine in the cup made his black pupils darken even more, "Of course, otherwise why wouldn't you get married at thirty years of age?"

"Then she must have hurt you badly. Do you not believe in love?"

"She hurt me so badly that it turned my life upside down, but I still believe in love. I believe everything that happens around me is for the sake of that best person." As he spoke, he reached out to tuck her messy hair behind her ear and said, "Those who leave you are all wrong, because those who love you will not leave!"
