Ye Yanxi was seething with anger inside. How hateful! He actually called her a pig. Was there ever such a cute pig? Although... he seemed to be stating a fact. She was a heavy sleeper.
This house was a duplex apartment, decorated luxuriously yet simply. The living room had floor - to - ceiling windows. Outside the window was a bustling street scene. Standing by the edge, one could see the Economic and Trade Building.
Jade Bay was the most prosperous villa community in City S. Located in a prime area, the housing prices there were sky - high.
The study was on the first floor, and the bedrooms were on the second. At the moment, all her clothes and other belongings had been moved in but not yet unpacked.
Ye Yanxi didn't have much of a concept about mansions. She thought as long as it was comfortable to live in, that would be fine.
While wandering around the house, she caught sight of the small cage on the balcony at a glance. Xiao Hui and Xiao Hei were lying inside, sound asleep. They didn't seem to be affected by the change of the environment at all. When they sensed Ye Yanxi approaching, they scrambled up in a startled manner and shook their fluffy ears.
Ye Yanxi immediately ran over happily. But when she saw the empty food container, a pang of sadness welled up in her heart.
How could he be so heartless towards such cute little animals? He really had no compassion at all.
She found the food beside the cage and then added water and food for the two little creatures. Then she rushed to the kitchen. The kitchen was spotless and clean. She didn't even see a single cooking utensil that she had used in her previous house.
Coming out of the kitchen, Ye Yanxi looked at Xiao Yu, who was sitting on the sofa calmly. "Where are the cooking utensils from my previous house? Why is there nothing in the kitchen?"
Xiao Yu's simple two - word reply was all she got. "Thrown away."
Thrown away... His tone was so casual. Ye Yanxi couldn't help but scold him for being a prodigal in her heart again.
"How can I boil water then?" The two little animals usually drank boiled water. Now that there were no cooking utensils, how could she boil water?
"There's a water dispenser."
"That water won't do!" Ye Yanxi got annoyed. Why did he throw away all her cooking utensils? After all, she had some feelings for them and was used to using them. Then she asked again, "Is there a supermarket nearby?"
"Supermarket? What for?" Xiao Yu frowned slightly, looking impatient.
"To buy things!" Of course, going to the supermarket was to buy things. What else could it be for? Ye Yanxi was almost defeated.
There was nothing in the kitchen now, not even a single pot, bowl, ladle or basin. Did President Xiao abstain from the smell of fireworks? Moreover, she needed to buy her toiletries and other things again.
Xiao Yu simply picked up his phone and asked, "What do you need? I'll have someone deliver them!"
"No need!" Ye Yanxi immediately interrupted him. "Just the things I usually use. I'd better go and buy them myself."
"...."
After getting the information, Ye Yanxi was going to go alone at first, but unexpectedly, Xiao Yu also followed her out.
From Xiao Yu's daily living habits, Ye Yanxi could tell that he was a pampered young master. He probably had never been to a supermarket to buy things by himself since childhood. He just made a phone call and everything would be delivered.
Therefore, Xiao Yu's face looked quite gloomy all the way.
Ye Yanxi first took a shower, changed out of her blood - stained clothes, and put on a simple set of home clothes. She tied up a high ponytail, looking fresh and lively. She didn't look her age anyway, and now she looked just like a high - school student.
In contrast, Xiao Yu was wearing black dress pants, a white shirt, and a pair of black leather shoes. His face was very serious, looking steady. Standing beside Ye Yanxi, they seemed to be from two different generations.
Not far from Jade Bay, there was a relatively large supermarket. Xiao Yu didn't let Xu Bei drive but drove there himself. He parked the car in the underground garage of the supermarket and then took the elevator with Ye Yanxi.
Both of them were extremely good - looking. When they appeared in the supermarket together, they were very eye - catching and attracted a lot of attention.
At the moment, there were a lot of people in the supermarket. Since entering the supermarket, Xiao Yu's face had become even more unpleasant, looking like he didn't want anyone to approach him.
Suddenly, he grabbed Ye Yanxi's arm. "Just tell me what you need. I'll have someone deliver it!"
Seeing his reluctant look as if he didn't want to say a word, it seemed that he really hated the supermarket. "Forget it. You go and wait for me in the car. I'll finish shopping soon." Ye Yanxi suggested looking at his face.
Xiao Yu was just about to agree when a young man stared at Ye Yanxi intently. Then he came over. "Hello. It's the first time I've seen you in this supermarket." The young man's smile was extremely bright, with two small dimples when he smiled.
Xiao Yu and Ye Yanxi immediately turned their heads. Seeing the young man greeting her, Ye Yanxi was a bit stunned.
"Um, I don't seem to know you."
The good - looking young man smiled. "My name is Lin Mo. Lin as in the forest, and Mo as in Mozi. Now do you know me?"
Ye Yanxi twitched the corner of her mouth. Was this what they called being overly friendly?
She had no choice but to smile back. "Hello." Then she turned to look at Xiao Yu who had followed. "Aren't you going to the parking lot?"
Now when she met Xiao Yu's eyes, she found that his previous gloomy face was actually much better than now. Now his eyes were so cold...
"Aren't you here to buy things? Let's go." Xiao Yu glanced at the young man, his voice a bit cold.
Wasn't he not going?
After saying that, Xiao Yu stood in front of Ye Yanxi, blocking the young man's figure from view. Ye Yanxi couldn't help but curse in her heart: "Devil."
Then the two of them walked towards the supermarket together.
When Ye Yanxi was selecting things, she could constantly feel Xiao Yu's disdainful looks from the side. When she was about to put a certain item into the shopping basket, Xiao Yu just couldn't stand it anymore. He snatched the item from her hand and then picked the most expensive one and put it in. It was simply rough, direct and fast.
After that, all the items they selected were done in this simple way. Finally, Ye Yanxi had bought enough cooking utensils and other items. Then she went to the toiletries section. When she had basically bought everything, she walked towards the vegetable section.
At this time, Xiao Yu's phone suddenly rang. Ye Yanxi was selecting vegetables by herself. Halfway through, she suddenly remembered to ask what Xiao Yu liked to eat.
She was startled by her own thought.
Why did she inexplicably care about his preferences? Their relationship could end at any time with just a word from Xiao Yu. She really shouldn't get entangled with him.
When she had almost finished selecting the vegetables, Xiao Yu caught up. It seemed that he had finished the phone call.
"Are you done shopping?" Xiao Yu looked up and saw the shopping cart that was almost overflowing.
"Yeah."
"Then let's go!"
"Okay."
Xiao Yu walked beside her with his hands in his pockets calmly, while Ye Yanxi pushed the fully - loaded shopping cart. This scene made the uninformed people envious and jealous. Some even felt a bit sorry for Ye Yanxi.
When the two of them were almost at the cashier, someone blocked the shopping cart. Ye Yanxi looked up and saw that it was the young man named Lin Mo.
"Hey, we meet again. What a coincidence!" The young man looked at Ye Yanxi with a big smile on his face, waved his hand, and then saw Xiao Yu and quickly greeted, "Hello, uncle!"
Hearing the young man's address for Xiao Yu, Ye Yanxi was thunderstruck. This couldn't be the right address!
She didn't turn around to look at Xiao Yu. She just felt that the gaze from behind seemed to be able to pierce through her body. However, Xiao Yu's words were calm. "What did you call me?"
