Xuxu was half-exasperated, half-amused as she looked at him . She said, "Stop giving excuses for your failed attempts . It's a fact that you've failed . "
This callous, stupid woman, he really felt like strangling her!
"I'll try again tonight . "
Yan Rusheng was itching with anger . He turned around to head back into his office .
Xuxu suddenly called him, "Ah Sheng . "
Yan Rusheng spun his head . He irritably responded with, "What do you want?"
Xuxu saw his expression and couldn't suppress her grin . "Have you eaten breakfast?"

"I know you haven't . " Yan Rusheng's voice was full of affection . He grabbed Xuxu's wrist and dragged her towards the office . "Aunt Zhang sent bird's nest porridge over especially for you . She asked when you were planning to return home . "
Xuxu answered, "Tell her that I won't be coming home so soon . "
"Are you really trying to drive me crazy?!" Yan Rusheng gripped her wrist with more force, and he really longed to strangle her .
"This annoying, stupid woman!" he thought .
Yan Rusheng shut the door after they entered and pointed at the container . He said to Xuxu, "It's over there, hurry up and eat it . "
Xuxu responded with a vague 'oh' and walked over .
She opened the container and the warm steam gushed out . The delicious smell wafted around and she took a deep breath to relish it . "Smells so yummy!"

She took the spoon and eagerly ate a mouthful .
Yan Rusheng gazed at her as she ate with a blissful expression . He affectionately smiled at her . "Wen Xuxu, I can't believe you're such a glutton . "
She displayed such an adorable side of her whenever she sees food .
But why did she put on such a nonchalant facade in the past? He loved seeing her like this as it made her so endearing and lovable .
Xuxu snorted with her mouth full and ignored his comments . She held the container tightly, thoroughly enjoying the food .
"I wonder how it would be like if we go to Country Y during this season . "
Yan Rusheng suddenly spoke, and he seemed to mutter to himself, yet asking Xuxu at the same time .
Xuxu thought briefly before answering, "It should be great since it is spring and flowers should be on bloom everywhere . "
She immediately thought of Yan Weihong and looked at Yan Rusheng . She softly asked, "How is father's recovery?"
"Let's go on New Year's Day . " Yan Rusheng rose and walked towards Xuxu .
Xuxu stared at him in surprise . She doubtfully asked, "Are you saying we are going to Country Y together on New Year's Day?"
"Hmm . " Yan Rusheng nodded and sat down next to her . He sighed once more . "I heard that the wishing well outside the royal palace entrance grants wishes . So I have to make a trip . "
The corners of Xuxu's mouth involuntarily twitched . "You want to go to Country Y… to make a wish?"
Didn't he say that he didn't believe in superstitions at all?
Yan Rusheng lazily rested on the couch with his hands propped behind his head . He intently stared at her as he scrutinized her face . He looked troubled and gloomy .
He had become superstitious all because of her .
Xuxu saw Yan Rusheng frowning as though he was deep in thoughts . She became curious and asked, "What wish do you want to make?"
Yan Rusheng glanced askew at the container and didn't answer her directly . "Aunt Zhang said that she would send you something nutritious every day . She wants you to nurse your health so that we can have a child . "
When he mentioned about children, Xuxu's face fell and she lowered her head . Didn't he say that he didn't believe in superstitions at all? "Ah Sheng . "
Every single time Yan Rusheng heard her addressing him with this affectionate nickname . He felt that it was extremely precious and rare . Nowadays, she had only occasionally used this nickname .
His heart softened, and he answered gently with "Mmm . "
"That…" Xuxu kept her head bowed as she struggled to get her words out . "I've only taken that medicine once . I was afraid that after I gave birth to our child, you would leave me . "
