“Mayor Xia, please have a seat. The kitchen will be ready soon,” she said.
“Why are you calling him Mayor Xia?” grandma su interrupted.”It sounds like he’s your brother.”
Su ningmei’s mouth twitched. She really wanted to say,”Mom, I’m not divorced yet. I’m still a married woman.
She did like Xia Anlan, but she did not have any thoughts about him. However, she wanted to like him without any qualms after the divorce.
And not like now, still carrying the name of a married woman.
If she did that, she would be disrespecting him and herself.
“See,” Xia Anlan said softly,”you still say you’re not angry? that’s not what you called me before.”
Su ningmei ...
Why was this person like this today? why did she call him that in the past?
In the end, it was the SU family’s eldest sister-in-law who saw that su ningmei was indeed embarrassed and stepped forward to smooth things over.””Dad, mom, don’t just stand there. Take a seat. It’s already time for dinner. If you don’t eat, the dishes will get cold.”
Old Mrs. Han nodded.”An LAN, let’s go and have a seat. We’re not outsiders today, so don’t stand on ceremony. An LAN, it’s rare for you to come here today, so don’t be so reserved.”
“Don’t worry, Auntie. I won’t stand on ceremony. Sea city is so close to Sucheng, I should have come earlier. ”
“It’s fine. In the future, if you have the time, come more often. ”
Xia Anlan went along with the old lady’s words and said,””Alright, then ... If I ever disturb aunty in the future, please don’t blame me.”
“Why would I? I wish you could come here often.”
The three sons of the SU family sighed at the side. ‘Mom, she’s treating Xia Anlan like her own son!’
The three of them, who were his biological children, would have to step aside.
Su ningmei wanted to leave this place for a while. She had to sort out her thoughts.
“Then you guys go ahead and cook first. I’ll get the kitchen to bring the dishes up ...”
The old lady said,”you’re not needed for this. Come, come and sit down. An LAN took care of you for a few days back then. Why did you always hide in the kitchen? we’re all family. Don’t be shy.”
Su ningmei’s mouth twitched. Old lady, could you be any more obvious?
She wanted to leave but was unable to do so. The old lady forcefully pulled her to Xia Anlan’s side.
Today’s situation was different from when she was alone with Xia Anlan. At that time, it was just the two of them. Even if they did something embarrassing, only one person would see it. But now, it was too awkward.
She was awkward, but there were others who were not. Xia Anlan was like a fish in water at the dinner table. It was as if he could become a confidant with anyone in three minutes.
After a short while, the whole family was talking and laughing with him. In this situation, she, a member of the SU family, seemed like an outsider and could not get along with them.
“Meimei made all these dishes,” grandmother Qi said after lunch.”She got up at five in the morning and went to the market. She was busy the whole afternoon.”
Su ningmei gritted her teeth and thought, mom, you’re the one who chased me away.
Xia Anlan turned his head.”You’ve worked hard. Can your body still take it?”
His eyes only had su ningmei in them, deep and bright. His gentle voice was like the spring wind and rain, making su ningmei almost sink in.
She was stunned for two seconds.”Ahem, of course it’s fine. It’s just making a few dishes. This is ... What I promised you back then.”
Su ningmei’s breathing quickened. Oh my God, how could his eyes be so gentle? she almost drowned in them!
