Chapter 130-2: Forgot to hide it properly
âAh?â Lin Ruoxi blushed faintly, speechless.
Yang Chen nodded, âWe just got married not too long ago.â
Old Zhao laughed and said, âLad, youâve got good fortune marrying such a beautiful girl. However, you must also be pretty tired. Those books youâre carrying must weigh at least a hundred and ten pounds, I feel tired just by looking at them.â
Finally, Lin Ruoxi noticed the two book baskets Yang Chen had placed on the floor. They were piled full of books like little mountains. She had chosen that many books without noticing.
With a frown, Lin Ruoxi bent over to try picking up a basket. Who would have known that with all the strength she had in one arm, it didnât even budge, and it was only when she used both arms that she was barely able to lift up the basket.
Putting down the heavy basket, Lin Ruoxi looked at Yang Chen strangely. Once she thought about how this man had actually quietly followed her for over three hours while carrying such heavy baskets filled with books in both hands without a wordâŠâŠ Intense guilt rushed into her heart while she felt touched at the same time. With a complicated expression, she lifted her head to look at Yang Chen.
Yang Chen noticed this and smiled indifferently. To him, this was no big deal, but to an ordinary person, and a girl at that, this was way too heavy.
Once again taking up one basket in each hand, Yang Chen said, âItâs alright, I donât find it that heavy.â
Old Zhao nodded with an expression full of praise, âNowadays, young ladies only know to look for handsome and rich men. In my opinion, seeing you lift these two baskets like this, I think itâs much more valuable than those things. Young lady, you had better cherish this relationship. Donât waste this great marriage.â When he finished saying that, Old Zhao waved with a wide smile, returned to his wife and slowly left while pushing her wheelchair.
Yang Chen noticed that Lin Ruoxi was still staring at him in a daze, and couldnât help but laugh and say, âI know that you donât acknowledge Old Zhaoâs words, I think that Iâm pretty handsome as well, right?â
Lin Ruoxi smiled faintly, and said in a gentle tone, âYou should take the lift first, wait for me at the cashier. Iâm going to get two more books before going down.â
Suddenly hearing his wife speaking so gently to him, Yang Chen almost thought that he was hallucinating. However, thinking about how two books wouldnât take too much time, he carried the two baskets and went downstairs alone.
After he had waited downstairs for less than five minutes, Lin Ruoxi got out of the lift with two books held tightly in her arms, as if she was trying to hide them.
Yang Chen wasnât interested in asking what books she was buying that she had to hide them from him. After placing the baskets at the cashier, he went to one side to wait for Lin Ruoxi to pay for them.
Fortunately, there were trolleys on the ground floor that they could use. Carrying close to a hundred books with plastic bags would have been a pain otherwise.
Quite a few people saw Lin Ruoxi buying so many books at once and whispered amongst themselves over this âlavishâ lifestyle. After all, books werenât cheap, buying this many at once probably cost over a thousand bucks, yet Lin Ruoxi had just swiped her card without any hesitation.
Yang Chen pushed the trolley and walked alongside Lin Ruoxi towards the car. He couldnât resist asking, âDarling Ruoxi, you bought so many books, can you even finish reading them all?â
Uncharacteristically, Lin Ruoxi gave a proper reply, âActually, most of these books are reference materials. They donât all have to be read. Besides, I like collecting all kinds of books.â
Yang Chen was baffled. Such a tranquil and gentle way of speaking to him wasnât her style. He couldnât help but ask curiously, âDarling, whatâs up with you? Are you feeling unwell somewhere? The way youâre speaking doesnât seem like you at all.â
Hearing this, Lin Ruoxi felt angry inside. Is there something wrong with speaking to him nicely? Therefore, she said unhappily, âAre you a damn pervert!? Do I have to scold you and ridicule you before youâll be happy?â
âOh; this is it! Thatâs the tone, youâre finally back to normal!â Yang Chen said with a smile.
Lin Ruoxi rolled her eyes at him, she had lost all desire to talk to him.
When they went to the boot of the car to put the bunch of books in, they had to expend a lot of effort to put them in order, as the books could very easily be damaged if they werenât placed carefully in the boot.
When they were almost done arranging the books, Yang Chen casually took a book from the trolley. With a single glance at it, he was frozen in place.
Lin Ruoxi was in the middle of thinking about something else when she noticed Yang Chen stiffen up while staring at a book. She looked over with a puzzled expression, and with one glance, she blushed up to her ears, causing her face to look as tender and beautiful as the autumn moonâŠâŠ
Crap! How did I forget to hide that properly!?
The book was one of the last two books Lin Ruoxi had chosen, and its title was:
ăHow to be a good wife and loving motherăâŠâŠ
