She wrinkled her nose slightly, really wanting to just walk away. But she was hungry. She hadn’t eaten anything at her grandparents’ place just now, and now her empty stomach couldn’t stand it. It didn’t matter if she was hungry, she couldn’t starve the child.
Bending her head, looking at her belly, she carefully said, “Then … I’ll buy two.”
“Two?” The owner gave her a strange look. Where do you just pick two?
Jo Langland nodded again and said in a thin voice, “Just two.”
She’s just padding her stomach for now. The apples downstairs at home were quite a bit cheaper than here, so she could go back and buy more if she wanted.
“Give me ten pounds!” Behind them, a voice rang out, followed by a hundred dollar bill being thrown on the fruit stand, “Keep the change!”
It was obvious to hear that he was upset.
And …
It’s really a waste!
But what does that have to do with her?
“Ah, yes, yes, yes, I’ll weigh them for you right away, wait a moment haha.” The boss was beaming with joy and immediately started to pick the ten pounds of apples.
“Boss, why don’t you call mine first, I’ll take these two alright.” Zhao Lanlan didn’t want to stay any longer. Moreover, her two, it was much more convenient than her ten pounds ah. However, the other party simply ignored her, only burying her head in the apple box and rummaging around.
She was depressed. Solely not waiting, she turned around and intended to leave. But her slender wrist was suddenly pulled. She frowned and shook her hand, and was gripped tighter by him, “Don’t you want the apple?”
“Don’t.”
Xia Feiqing stared at her and didn’t say anything, only turning his head to urge the boss, “Hurry up.”
“Xia Feiqing, let go!” Zhao Lanlan couldn’t shake it off and could only use her fingers to break it. However, her strength was no match for his, and she couldn’t shake him at all. When she struggled until her head was covered in sweat, he was still staring at her calmly. The eyes were deep and complex, so she couldn’t understand, and secretly thought in her heart, wondering how this guy wanted to deal with himself again. Wiping the sweat from the corners of her forehead, she simply twisted her body away, using her whole body to reject his line of sight.
“Ten pounds of apples. The two that this young lady wants are for you.” The boss gave the two fruits that Zhao Lanlan had picked and put them into the bag together.
Xia Feiqing returned to his senses, only to realize that he had gazed out at her.
That’s ridiculous! Is it true that she’s gotten prettier since the divorce?
“Boss?” The fruit boss called out again when he didn’t squeak.
He just let out a ‘hmm’ through his nose and took the apple. Inexplicably, there was some displeasure. Pulling Zhao Lanlan, he headed in the direction of the car.
The steps were big, and Zhao Lanlan was pulled into a trot by him.
“Xia Feiqing, what exactly do you want?”
Without a word, he tossed the apple into the backseat. Opened the passenger door again and shoved her right in. She jawed, glaring at him, and he smoothly pulled down the seatbelt to fasten it for her. She was about to unbuckle and get out of the car when Xia Feiqing locked the door directly behind her.
Going around to the driver’s seat, he darted the lock open, dodged inside, and slammed the door shut again. Moving with agility, he didn’t give her any chance to push the door open and get out.
Zhao Lanlan turned her face sideways and looked at him, indignation all over her small face. Xia Feiqing also felt that what he was doing at the moment was a bit out of control, but, just now, looking at her finely tuned look, until now, his heart was still stuffy, as if a ball of cotton had been stuffed.
“You don’t have to feel weird about it, I’m just following orders.” He pretended to be icy, and without waiting for her to ask, he added, “Grandpa told me to give you a ride downtown.”
“No need! I’ve got my own arms and legs, I can walk by myself!”
“All you have to do now is shut the hell up!” Xia Feiqing was distraught over his actions, so he couldn’t help but yell down at her.
Zhao Lanlan was so flabbergasted by his yelling that she was really furious and directly lunged towards him, reaching out to press the button to unlock the door. Just this move caused her entire body to cross over from his arm.
Xia Feiqing’s eyes narrowed as danger surged into them.
Which was able to let her have her way so easily? Big palm clasped her waist, a slight force, will be restless she directly pressed down to his lap. She was so shocked that her jaw dropped, and immediately had to struggle to get up.
***
“Damn it, don’t move!” Xia Feiqing’s voice darkened slightly, one hand grasping the steering wheel, one hand holding down her body, “If you don’t want something to happen, settle down!”
He whispered a warning.
Zhao Lanlan originally thought that she was struggling so much that she was likely to cause a car accident. However, soon …
She then realized it wasn’t at all!
She felt his reaction.
She shuddered, her whole body tensing up, even her breathing.
Even though they had been intimate with each other many times, and even had a child, but, at this moment, she still felt ashamed and annoyed. She broke his hand, “Rascal! You let go of me!”
“Rascal?” Xia Feiqing drove while teasing her, still at ease. Weakly hanging his head to look at her, his eyes had a sneer, his tone was loose, “Have you forgotten how passionate you were when you were underneath me, making love to me? The time you accompanied me to A city on business, in the hotel, remember? Two days time, we but used up more than 10 sets …”
“You shut up!” Zhao Lanlan was no longer willing to look back on those things, how intimate she had once been, how deeply she loved now.
“You like me wanting you that much.” His voice grew dull. He purposely and ambiguously blew in her ear, “Even though I’m divorced, I kinda miss your sensitive body …”
She’s going crazy!
Even his neck was red.
“Or, like your sister said …,” Xia Feiqing raised his eyebrows, “the ex-wife is used to be an underground lover, you are responsible for physically satisfying me, and I am responsible for supporting you and your sister. You don’t have to be so shabby that you’re even counting two cents …”
Before the word ‘plan’ could be uttered, Zhao Lanlan suddenly slapped him in the face.
‘Squeak-‘ There was a loud bang and the car jerked to a stop. On his face were stark, unmistakable five-finger prints.
He stared at her viciously, his eyes as if he wanted to swallow her in one bite. She wasn’t afraid, she just met the gaze with shame and indignation, because she was so angry, every part of her small face was suffocated with redness, tears hanging unstoppably from the corners of her eyes, “You’re shameless! Xia Feiqing!”
“Know what a shameless beast looks like?” A dangerous spark leapt from his eyes.
Damn it!
How dare this woman hit him!
“It’s just the way you look! I used to be crazy to get that little bit attached to you!”
He shuddered.
Heart?
Was … he misheard?
She, however, had already broken his large palm at this time, opened the car lock again, and quickly jumped away from his lap. Pushing the car door open from the passenger seat side, half of her body had already poked out and looked back at him again, “Xia Feiqing, now you … make me fall all the way to my stomach!”
Saying that, she never stopped again and got straight out of the car, walking quickly towards the front.
Xia Feiqing sat in the car in a daze, woodenly touching his face. There, it stung. When he came back to his senses, he saw her back, he let out a low curse, pounded the steering wheel fiercely, and started the car. When he passed her, he didn’t pause, but slammed his foot to the floor and blasted out.
Damn it!
Who does she think she is? How dare she hit him! How dare you say that you’ve lost your appetite?
That’s good!
That’s the way they were supposed to look!
