‘I went with her to the City Women and Children’s Hospital . ’
Xuxu’s words echoed in Yan Rusheng’s ears once more, and he became more suspicious .
Zhou Shuang walked over to Yan Rusheng and waved her fist at him . She glared . “Yan Rusheng, are you asking for a beating?”
It left Xuxu speechless—these two were like arch-enemies . Every time they meet, they were bound to bicker . She has had enough .
She cut across to prevent them from exchanging words . “Alright, that’s enough . Let’s go . You should head back to the office . ”
She shoved Yan Rusheng forward .
The trio strode towards the crowded elevator .
Yan Rusheng was afraid people would bump over to Xuxu, so he used his body to shield her as she stood at the corner .
During mornings, the hospital was usually very crowded . When the elevator stopped at another level, more people rushed in . Xuxu got worried for Zhou Shuang . “Shuang, be careful . Come here . ”
Her concern further cemented Yan Rusheng’s hunch that he was right .
“Look, isn’t that Flourish & Prosper’s President?”
“Wow, he is as good-looking as the photos . ”
Someone recognized Yan Rusheng’s gorgeous face and exclaimed . The smitten young little girls ignored Xuxu, who Yan Rusheng was shielding, and continued to gasp dramatically .
“Why does the President need to squeeze with us in the elevator?”
Suddenly, a middle-aged woman stuck her face towards Yan Rusheng . She surveyed him closely as though he was some fascinating object .
Yan Rusheng instinctively withdrew his head and frowned . “Should I jump off the building if I don’t use the elevator?”
It had all of them speechless .
Xuxu bent her head, shaking uncontrollably and Zhou Shuang followed suit .
That woman received a rude shock from Yan Rusheng’s glare and retreated . She dismissed in a conclusion, “Quite handsome indeed, but his shortcoming is his rudeness . He doesn’t respect the elderly, too . Barely passable . ”
This woman sounded like she was evaluating a product .
Zhou Shuang loudly chortled when they came out of the elevator . “Yan Rusheng, did you hear that? That woman said you barely passed the mark for you’re a stuck up and overbearing fellow . ”
Yan Rusheng stuffed his hands deep into the pockets of his pants and threw Zhou Shuang a dirty look . Ignoring her remarks, he strode away .
Xuxu waved to bid him goodbye . “Ah Sheng, be safe on the road . ”
Yan Rusheng nodded and added, “Don’t go to work today and rest well at home . ”
Xuxu nodded with an ‘Mm’ .
Zhou Shuang watched them and helplessly shook her head . “You’ve known each other for over 20 years . And you’re married to him for almost a year, the novelty should wear off soon, right? Why are you still acting so lovey-dovey and mushy as though both of you are still in your teens in a budding relationship?”
Xuxu proudly raised her chin and bragged . “Yes, we are still dating and head over heels in love with each other . This will go on every day for this lifetime . ”
But she wasn’t thick-skinned enough, so she blushed afterward .
“Hey, hey, hey . ” Zhou Shuang stretched her hand and jabbed at Xuxu’s dimples . “Wen Xuxu, don’t you feel ashamed?”
Xuxu frowned and flung her hand away with disdain . Her eyes darted to her belly and she quipped . “Don’t worry about me . You should worry about the three little buns inside of you right now . ”
Zhou Shuang was still in the mood to tease her despite her troubles .
Zhou Shuang became crestfallen at the mention of her babies . “Can we talk about something happy?”
She pouted and turned glum .
Xuxu hastily nodded . “Alright, what do you want to talk about to make you feel better?”
They walked towards the car .
