She didn't want Gu Rumo to think that the shoes belonged to Gu Ziliang. Although it might not be necessary, she didn't want him to feel that he was still obsessed with Gu Ziliang.

She bent down and threw the shoes into the trash can nearby. "Now that you're here, I don't need them anymore."

Her gentle and cheerful tone made Gu Rumo feel a shiver in his heart.

"Hmm," he said softly.

Seeing that Xia Qingxin unlocked the password, she wanted to help him input his fingerprints.

She grabbed his index finger and pressed it against the door.

When their fingers were intertwined just now, they were a little unfamiliar with each other, but now they were very natural.

Gu Rumo followed Xia Qingxin in with a smile on his face.

The room was not big, but the decoration was warm and elegant. It was just that there were a few things in it. Xia Qingxin was usually busy with work and taking care of Gu Ziliang, so she rarely came back.

Therefore, there were not many things.

She gave the other room to Gu Rumo.

Usually, Xia Qingxin did not think that the room was small, but when Gu Rumo stood in the room, it suddenly seemed to be smaller.

Especially when Gu Rumo stood in front of the refrigerator. He was more than 1.8 meters tall, which made the refrigerator look particularly miniature.

Seeing him open the refrigerator door with his slender hands, Xia Qingxin felt a little embarrassed for some reason. "I usually order takeout and don't know how to cook. What do you want to eat? I'll order it for you."

Gu Rumo shook his head and said, "I'll go buy some groceries nearby. This is our first meal together."

As he spoke, he naturally picked up his coat and walked out.

Xia Qingxin did not expect Gu Rumo to know how to cook, so she was a little surprised.

After sitting on the sofa and waiting for a while, Gu Rumo came back with bags of various sizes. He also peeled off a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into her mouth. "Wait a minute, the meal will start soon."

Caught off guard, Xia Qingxin was fed. Biting the piece of chocolate with sea salt and lemon in it, she quietly walked to the kitchen and watched Gu Rumo cook.

Gu Rumo had a manly figure. He was wearing a black shirt and rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong arms. He had an apron on his slender waist and was cooking soup while stir-frying the vegetables in the pot.

His movements were natural and smooth, and he was very skilled. It was not the first time he had cooked.

Golden sunlight poured in through the window, covering his body with a layer of gold.

He raised his hand high into the air, as alluring veins rose and fell on his arm.

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he moved.

Xia Qingxin widened her eyes and touched her cheek again. She felt that she seemed to be getting more and more abnormal.

Why did she think of him when she watched him cook...

She hurried back to the sofa and pretended not to have seen it.

Soon, four dishes and one soup were served on the table.

Xia Qingxin looked at the delicious food on the table and swallowed her saliva in embarrassment.

"Where did you buy this? Is there a supermarket nearby selling elephantine clams? This is a crabs, right? It's so fat."

Xia Qingxin picked one up, opened it, and saw that it was yellow.

She then looked at the three dishes that were emitting a fragrance. If they were to be eaten outside, the dishes would cost at least 10,000 yuan, and these ingredients were obviously very good.

"I'm lucky. There's a variety in the supermarket today," Gu Rumo said as he put on disposable gloves and skillfully unwrapped the crab for Xia Qingxin. He peeled off a piece of complete crab meat and stuffed it into Xia Qingxin's mouth.

Just as Xia Qingxin was about to say that she could do it herself, she was stuffed with food. It was so delicious that she wanted to swallow her tongue.

It seemed that the husband she picked up was not bad. After all, his cooking skills were pleasing to the eye.

She secretly cut off the small bread roll in her heart. Gu Rumo was worth buying a car so that he could drive out to buy groceries.

Gu Rumo narrowed his eyes and smiled when he saw her enjoying the food.

In the evening, Xia Qingxin was so full that she couldn't stand it anymore. She lay motionless on the bed and took out her mobile phone to call her best friend, Luo Beibei.

Too many things had happened in the past few days, and she felt a little uncomfortable after digesting them herself.

Luo Beibei was the best friend of Xia Qingxin. She had a gentle personality and was also beautiful. She used to be a famous goddess, but she had a special affection for her current husband. After pursuing him for two years, she finally got married.

However, as soon as she got married, her family forced her to give birth to a daughter. Her husband's family was particularly dissatisfied and gave her a hard time in the delivery room.

In order to win back her husband's heart, she immediately got pregnant again before she recovered.

Xia Qingxin was very distressed for her best friend, but there was nothing she could do. She couldn't persuade her.

As soon as she finished talking to Luo Beibei about her and Gu Rumo, Luo Beibei cried out in shock, "What? You're married? Or is he Gu Ziliang's uncle?"

It was no wonder that Luo Beibei was shocked. This was too much like a novel.

Xia Qingxin sighed. "I've already given up on men. Since marriage is one thing, I might as well pick someone pleasing to the eye. At the very least, anything can be fake. Being handsome can't be faked."

Luo Beibei also sighed and said, "Gu Ziliang is too heartless. If you hadn't cured his legs, he would still be sitting in a wheelchair, let alone his mother's heart disease, which was cured by you. It's not an exaggeration to say that you saved her and her son. How can he cheat as soon as he stands up."

After that, she asked worriedly, "Then the man you're married to in a flash is called Gu Rumo, right? Why does his name sound a little familiar? Ah, I remember. He's the former head of the family who was expelled from the Gu family. I heard that he's vicious and cruel. Now he's down and out."

Back then, Gu Rumo was well-known in the Capital.

But neither of them had a good reputation.

Xia Qingxin twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "I think he's not bad, and he's good at cooking. I made an agreement with him that we'll just be husband and wife by contract. After all, I don't want to invest any more feelings in him."

Her biological parents' alienation and her fiance's betrayal cast a shadow over her heart.

She didn't want to be in a relationship now.

Luo Beibei wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. "But it's not your fault. I believe that one day, you will find a man who loves you and treat you well."

Hearing her best friend's comforting words, Xia Qingxin smiled and didn't take it seriously. There were light footsteps outside the door. She curiously jumped out of bed and went to open the door with her mobile phone.

He saw Gu Rumo wearing a silk nightgown with his collar slightly open. When he passed by his door, he was probably going to find some water to drink.

At a glance, she could see that his good figure, which had been working out all year round, flashed in front of her through the soft fabric.

Xia Qingxin felt her heart skip a beat and she quickly slammed the door shut.

Why did she feel that her husband was seducing her?

"Oh, it's time for me to take my medicine and go to bed. Otherwise, Granny will nag at me again," Luo Beibei said helplessly.

In order to give birth to a son for her second child, her mother-in-law found a lot of folk prescriptions and forced her to drink them in a strange way.

"She must sleep on time every night, or her mother-in-law will tell her husband about it and make a scene at home."

Luo Beibei knew that it was useless, but she didn't want her family to be in chaos, so she could only compromise.
