As he spoke, he sat down on the couch and starting dialing Xuxu's number .
At that moment, the butler announced .
"Missy is back . "
Yan Rusheng locked his cellphone screen and put it down, then rose to walk to the door .
The second he caught sight of that petite figure, he was slightly startled . To his surprise, she was wearing the dress he'd bought for her .
She was smiling and seemed cheerful . And she did look more energetic and fresh .
The corners of his mouth curled up subconsciously when he saw her in the dress, feeling satisfied with his taste in clothes .
'She went out with Miss Zhou this afternoon, and she hasn't returned . '
Aunt Zhang's words rung once more, and his face fell immediately .
Xuxu noticed the abrupt change in his facial expression and her heart lurched as a result . She slowed down instinctively .
Yan Rusheng towered over her as she stood below the steps, peering down at her from a lofty position . He snapped coldly, "Where did you go this entire afternoon?"
Xuxu answered timidly, "I went to the orphanage in the Chengdong district with Zhou Shuang . The children insisted on having dinner with us . "
So they went to the orphanage .
Yan Rusheng's bubbling jealousy evaporated instantly, and his tone softened . "In the future, call home to inform the servants if you're not coming back for dinner . "
Yan Rusheng's bubbling jealousy evaporated instantly, and his tone softened . "In the future, call home to inform the servants if you're not coming back for dinner . "
He turned around after speaking .
"Mm," Xuxu mumbled as she watched his back .
She felt that this fellow was getting more unpredictable .
Yan Rusheng stopped at the entrance of the dining room and said, "Come over and eat . "
"I've already eaten at the orphanage . " Xuxu rubbed her full belly .
Seeing how satisfied and contented she looked, Yan Rusheng was struck with a flash of jealousy as he thought of a bunch of kids eating with her at the orphanage .
"Even so, come over and drink some soup . " He was frowning impatiently, and he sounded as if there wasn't any room for discussion .
"Even so, come over and drink some soup . " He was frowning impatiently, and he sounded as if there wasn't any room for discussion .
Xuxu feared that he would flare up and nodded . "Okay . "
Everything had changed between the two of them . One of them would have to give in so that they could maintain this marriage based on 'Grandmother's final wish' .
Not to mention, she was indeed the culprit behind Grandmother's death and made them lose the core of their family . She no longer had the right to raise her head up high before another Yan family member .
Especially Yan Rusheng .
She would bury the hidden feelings she had for him deep in her heart forever . That way, she will could preserve the last remaining shred of her dignity .
She constantly reminded herself that their marriage was just to fulfill Grandmother's final wish .
No matter how gentle or thoughtful he was to her, she shouldn't harbor any unnecessary hope .
She watched Yan Rusheng as he placed a bowl of soup in front of her and said lightly, "Thank you . "

She watched Yan Rusheng as he placed a bowl of soup in front of her and said lightly, "Thank you . "
Then she held the bowl and drank a big mouthful .
Yan Rusheng looked at her and asked coldly, "Can't you take note of your image as a woman?"
"Oh . " Xuxu obeyed and placed the bowl down . She picked up a spoon and slowly drank her soup in a demure manner .
Slam!
Yan Rusheng slammed his chopsticks on the table and without waiting for Xuxu's response, he angrily left the dining room .
He didn't want this; he wanted the original her . Not someone submissive and docile without a temper .
Xuxu watched him furiously walk away, and she frowned gloomily .
