Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again

Chapter 1861: Chapter 1859: Unaware That Chu Chengfeng Has Thought So Far Ahead

Thinking back carefully, she truly didn’t know in private, but from what she observed, these two never really had intimate contact.

But regardless of whether they did or not, she shouldn’t be fixated on this matter. Sima sighed inwardly, not understanding what kind of joke heaven was playing. Given the outcome, why take such a roundabout path?

She simply pointed to the courtyard and said, "I don’t like this little path laid out here, redo it."

Chu Chengfeng saw Sima Xiaowen’s gentle demeanor and was delighted, cheerfully rushing to the courtyard.

This courtyard wasn’t large, but a path paved with bluestone slabs ran through it, complementing the slightly nostalgic, classical courtyard.

However, Sima Xiaowen just wanted to give Chu Chengfeng a bit of trouble.

But Chu Chengfeng didn’t mind; what’s a bit of work for a young lad?

He didn’t need anyone’s help, waving his arms with great strength, coupled with his Mystic Sect powers, he could easily dig out the bluestone and casually move it to the corner of the courtyard, transforming the path from the gate to the doorstep into a sandy path.

Sima Xiaowen directly instructed, "Go to the riverbank and collect pebbles. Cover this area with stones of the same color, laying them smoothly with minimal gaps."

"Alright, Xiao Wen, wait for me,"

he said as he dashed out, but Sima Xiaowen called him back, "Where are you going?"

"I’m going to the riverbank to collect stones."

"Is there a river nearby?"

"Just wait here, I know a place abundant in pebbles, I’ll drive there and be back soon."

With that, afraid that Sima Xiaowen might change her mind, he quickly opened the car door, started the engine, and sped away.

Sima Xiaowen was stunned for a moment, then slowly curled her lips into a smile.

When Chu Chengfeng returned, he smelled the aroma of dishes.

It turned out Sima Xiaowen had bought food from a nearby restaurant because there was almost nothing here, everything was from the restaurant’s bowls and plates. Luckily, the restaurant owner recognized Sima Xiaowen, even though she didn’t know him.

After all, Sima Xiaowen was quite famous in the dining industry, being the head of the largest beef noodle chain in the Capital City, even if you don’t know him, he’d like to curry favor with you, hence the restaurant owner almost carried the dining table over, but was rejected by Sima Xiaowen.

Nevertheless, the few dishes here were indeed made with care.

This place was already decorated.

Since it was summer, the windows and doors were constantly open, so the smell had mostly dissipated.

There was no furniture, but there was a stone table and stools in the courtyard, which Sima Xiaowen had already cleaned and set the food and dishes on.

The water supply was connected here.

Sima Xiaowen said indifferently, "Sit down and eat first. I’m a bit hungry even if you’re not."

With that, she picked up the chopsticks and started eating without waiting for Chu Chengfeng.

Chu Chengfeng felt immense joy, truly delighted.

He hurried to the bathroom to wash his hands.

After enduring for quite a period, he finally got to have a meal alone with Xiao Wen, and even though the setting wasn’t the most elegant, to him, it seemed the most romantic.

His handsome eyebrows brimmed with laughter, "Xiao Wen, you’re really good to me."

He knew Sima Xiaowen was harsh on the outside but soft-hearted, surely she felt for him, just that she was too shy to admit it.

"I have to eat too, giving you a bite won’t cost me much," Sima Xiaowen abruptly doused his enthusiasm.

Currently, Chu Chengfeng could be described as impervious to anything.

A bit of cold water like that meant nothing.

Instead, he got even more enthusiastic, planning how to tidy up the house inside and out while eating...

Though they might not necessarily live here in the future, they could visit occasionally since there’s a river nearby and some hill forests, the landscape is quite nice.

Sima Xiaowen couldn’t stand it anymore, slapped the table, "Even eating can’t shut you up."

Chu Chengfeng fell silent.

Just smilingly gazing at Sima Xiaowen; even his girlfriend’s anger was beautiful.

He couldn’t help thinking of Qin Yize’s family of Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei, wondering what their babies might look like.

Sima Xiaowen wasn’t aware of Chu Chengfeng’s far-reaching thoughts.

Seeing Chu Chengfeng quiet, she also peacefully resumed eating.

Luo Fan invited Gu Qianqian out, and the two strolled hand in hand in the park.

Though it was hot outside, the park was shaded with greenery; it was quite serene at this moment, with the shady trees blocking out the sun, making it much cooler.

While walking, Gu Qianqian listened to Luo Fan talking about the Si Family, so she’d have some idea of what’s going on.

Gu Qianqian glanced at the bracelet on her hand; it had the same significance as her sister’s peace charm.

But its function was quite different; this bracelet worked like ordinary jewelry towards the body, but once under attack, it revealed its true capabilities. Gu Qianqian had witnessed the bracelet’s function firsthand, though hers was somewhat inferior to Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei’s.

But even so, it was quite impressive.

"I don’t even know if the Si family members are flat or round. They have such frivolous and ridiculous thoughts; maybe they’ve been tricked by the girls studying abroad over the years."

Luo Fan arched his handsome brows slightly, "What do you mean by that?"

"I have two classmates in a similar situation; they studied abroad and fought tooth and nail to stay. They even said that washing dishes there is happier than being in the country—how can they think like that?

My sister has also been abroad, but her words were much more objective, so I trust my sister. And you were abroad too, but you came back, and I haven’t seen you dissatisfied."

"Qianqian, what we’re worried about is them luring you with villas or jobs at that time."

Gu Qianqian cheekily blinked, "Why don’t you mention them tempting me with gold and jewelry?"

Luo Fan said earnestly, "They are well aware of the Gu Family’s business. They surely know that."

Gu Qianqian chuckled; she didn’t care at all.

Because this time, she had nothing to fear, walking with her sister, along with Luo Fan and her brother-in-law by her side.

And even if the Si family’s son were a celestial being, she wouldn’t give him a glance.

"Yet, this might be a smoke and mirrors tactic. How could such fantastical people have such massive assets? Mainly, my brother-in-law needs to be cautious," Gu Qianqian expressed her concern.

"My dad has already talked it over with my brother-in-law."

Gu Qianqian nodded; these matters seemed beyond her worry, all she needed was to be joyful and not trouble them. Suddenly she looked up at Luo Fan, "Brother Luo Fan, why have you never told me about Big Brother?"
