Chapter 692: Chapter 682 [Extra] Once the heart turns cold, it cannot be warmed again

Watching the prospect of marrying off his son and embracing a grandson grow dimmer by the day, Mother Xu’s hopes seemed to be as far off as the Year of the Monkey.

When Mother Xu got angry, she chased her son out of the house.

On the drive back to his rental, Xu Weiran received a call from Sheng Ning’an, "So, how was it? Did they like the gifts I chose for your parents?"

"They did like them..."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Ning’an couldn’t help but feel a pang of anxiety, "What’s wrong? Was there something inappropriate about the gifts I chose?"

"No, they really liked the gifts you sent. It’s just that with your gifts setting the bar, they felt their own son wasn’t as thoughtful as you. So, they sent me packing late at night."

Sheng Ning’an: ...

For a moment, he didn’t know what to say. He could only urge him, "Well, make sure you get back safely tonight. Oh, and my family asked me to thank you. They really liked the gifts you sent. My parents have even prepared a return gift for you. I’ll bring it over when I have time tomorrow."

"Alright, please thank your uncle and aunt for me."

After hanging up, Xu Weiran looked at his phone and couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile.

The cab driver in the front seat struck up a conversation, "Young man, you were talking to your girlfriend just now, weren’t you?"

"Yes!" Xu Weiran put away his phone and responded.

Cab driver: "I could tell. You must have just started dating, right?"

"You can tell that?"

"I’m an experienced man," the cab driver said with a chuckle. "New couples are always clingy. At first, you can’t wait to make ten calls a day. But over time! Once the clinginess fades, some guys can’t be bothered to even answer calls."

"But let me give you some advice, don’t ever be like that. A girl is clingy because she has you in her heart. She knows very well whether you care about her or not. If you start ignoring her calls, she’ll slowly stop being clingy. Once the affection cools, it’s hard to warm back up. And remember, spend more time with your girlfriend. No matter how many calls you make, it’s not the same as being there with her." The driver spoke to him with the tone of someone imparting wisdom from experience.

As if enlightened, Xu Weiran expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, sir. Don’t worry, I definitely won’t do that." Though he said that, he couldn’t help but feel a bit of trepidation in his heart.

After all, given his job, it wasn’t really possible for him to spend a lot of time with her.

Even this trip they went on, she was alone all the time.

Thinking of her visiting attractions by herself for the past two days, Xu Weiran felt an indescribable sentiment in his heart.

Girls her age probably yearned for company and a more intensely passionate relationship.

And what he could offer, it seemed, wasn’t much.

He also wondered if she would ever regret being with him.

The cab driver added, "But just looking at your face, your girlfriend surely won’t bear to let you go."

Xu Weiran couldn’t help but touch his own face, thinking that it must be thanks to his looks that she fancied him.

It seemed he would have to start learning how to take care of his skin.

After all, he was eight years older than she was. What if he aged too quickly and she started to find him less appealing?

Without hesitation, Xu Weiran pulled out his phone, opened a shopping website, and ordered a bunch of men’s skincare products.

He finished his shopping spree and didn’t forget to turn on the camera to check out his handsome face.

Not bad, he still looked quite young.

But he had heard staying up late can make you age faster, so it seemed he couldn’t afford to keep up the late nights anymore.
