Chapter 896: Chapter 896: With a Touch of Indulgence

Rong Shaoze drove a SUV and brought them to the countryside.

The place was picturesque, and many people loved coming here for outings.

It was Lin Xinlan’s first time in such a place, and she found it novel and enjoyable.

Xiaocong was like a little horse freed from its reins, doing somersaults and running around on the grass.

Lin Xinlan sat comfortably under the shade of a tree, smiling as she asked Rong Shaoze, "How did you find this place?"

Rong Shaoze smiled and said, "With my skills, I can find any place."

"Arrogant!" She glared at him playfully, while the man raised his eyebrows, looking as if he was indeed quite capable.

"You go play with Xiaocong, I’ll call you when I’m done," Rong Shaoze said.

"Let me help you," Lin Xinlan stood up and brushed off the grass from her pants.

"No need, I can handle it myself. Besides, it’s hot out, and if you help, you’ll definitely end up all sweaty."

His caring and gentle tone made Lin Xinlan feel a bit dazed.

It felt as if he was still the Rong Shaoze from before, the one who loved her deeply.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Rong Shaoze looked up, meeting her gentle gaze, feeling a bit puzzled.

Lin Xinlan smiled and shook her head, "Nothing, just thought you look very handsome. You’re the best-looking man I’ve ever seen."

Rong Shaoze was taken aback, his ears turning a bit red.

He quickly lowered his head to hide the embarrassment in his eyes.

Lin Xinlan didn’t realize he was shy, she chuckled and went to play with Xiaocong.

Mother and son explored everywhere like they were on a treasure hunt.

There were green trees, clear streams, and verdant hills, with camellias in full bloom on the mountains.

Lin Xinlan wore a pink woven hat, weaving through the camellias.

Xiaocong kept pressing the shutter, capturing the beautiful moments of his mother.

They took pictures of each other, then together, having a great time.

When they finished playing and went to find Rong Shaoze, the man had already set up two tents and prepared the barbecue grill.

Xiaocong cheered, finding the outdoor barbecue exciting and fresh.

Lin Xinlan also found it novel. The two went to help; they grilled lots of delicious food, eating, grilling, and taking photos, having a delightful time.

In the end, they were stuffed.

Rong Shaoze spread a blanket under the tree, and the family sat on it, listening to music and drinking beverages.

Lin Xinlan couldn’t help but lie down, resting her head on Rong Shaoze’s lap.

The man stiffened slightly but soon relaxed.

He didn’t push her away.

Lin Xinlan smiled contentedly, only then closing her eyes comfortably.

Xiaocong followed suit, also lying down and resting his head on Lin Xinlan’s legs, closing his eyes contentedly.

Rong Shaoze could only lean against the tree, watching them with amusement.

Even he didn’t realize that his gaze was filled with affection.

The three lay sprawled, without a care for appearances, listening to the music and silently enjoying the tranquility of the summer afternoon.

The songs on the mini-speaker changed one after another.

Finally, it was Lin Yilian’s "The Most Romantic Thing".

Lin Xinlan hummed along gently, and Rong Shaoze felt touched.

When he first woke up, he heard her singing this song.

She loved this song, and he knew it was because of him.

Their story from the past was moving, and because he knew their past was not easy, he worked hard to like her again, wanting to fall in love with her anew.

From the looks of it now, he already liked her a little.
