Shu Jie’s face turned red as she gave him a look and took the towel from his hand, washed it again, and then handed it back to him.

"Why, didn’t Mom say that business was quite good before?"

"Don’t know, maybe it’s too hot these days, and people don’t want to go out," Ruan Jin Guo replied. It was the last heat wave before the start of fall, and maybe that’s why nobody wanted to go outside.

But he wasn’t sure if that was the reason.

Ever since he had not taken over the restaurant, they no longer sourced the meat dishes from Xiu Xi, instead, they started buying on their own from the market, and the business had been declining day by day.

"I’ll go with you to have a look tomorrow," Shu Jie said after a few seconds of silence. These days, she had been busy taking care of Ruan Jiaojiao, and the Ruanlin family matriarch had just recovered; she hadn’t had the chance to step out at all.

"Okay," Ruan Jin Guo replied, gazing at her beautiful profile, white and tender like freshly made tofu, and a certain thought suddenly sprang to his mind. Seeing that no one was around, he couldn’t resist and pecked her on the cheek.

Having such a fair and tender wife by his side for over half a month, only being able to covet her with his eyes but not touch her, was indeed a torment.

"What are you doing!" Shu Jie, with her face turning red, glared at him and, holding the basin, she twisted her body and ran toward the kitchen: "It’s broad daylight, have some shame!"

"Hahaha..." Ruan Jin Guo laughed heartily, not in a hurry as he watched his wife run away, his laughter making Shu Jie’s steps even quicker.

When he could no longer see his wife’s figure, Ruan Jin Guo reluctantly withdrew his gaze, but when he turned his head, he got such a fright that he jumped.

"Xiaoxi! What are you doing here!" It nearly scared him to death.

Xiu Xi was staring at the sly smile that had just appeared on his face, his eyes dark and deep, making Ruan Jin Guo feel like all his hairs were standing on end. Just as he was about to ask if he had seen what had just happened, he saw him reach out his hand.

Only then did Ruan Jin Guo remember the favor he had asked for that morning. Resigned, he said, "It’s in the car, go get it yourself."

Xiu Xi then took his gaze off him and went to the tricycle parked at the door.

Ruan Jin Guo covered his chest and thumped it, then coughed deceptively with his hand in front of his mouth and called out from behind: "Stinky boy, make some noise when you walk next time. You’ll scare someone to death like that, you know!"

As Xiu Xi was about to reach the door, he turned around upon hearing this.

"What were you and Auntie doing?" he asked, pausing for a bit before he added two words: "Just now."

"...What’s that, who’s calling me? Ah, I’ll go have a look, I’ll go have a look..." Ruan Jin Guo, blinking rapidly, turned and mumbled to himself while he hurriedly walked towards the back yard, his steps getting faster and faster.

Xiu Xi, with an expressionless face, retracted his gaze and went over to the tricycle to find what Ruan Jin Guo was supposed to bring him, took it out to look, and slowly curled the corners of his mouth.

Upstairs.

Xiaobai had taken its stroll back after eating earlier on the front hill, bypassing the lower floors and climbing directly through Ruan Jiaojiao’s window. Now it lay in the living room, its body coiled into a circle, allowing Ruan Jiaojiao to lay on top of it, leaning against its head, while its own head rested on the sofa set Zhao Li had given.

Xiaobai’s body was cool and smooth, much more comfortable than an electric fan.
