Chapter 375: The Arrogant and Rich Family + the Silent and Abstinent Bodyguard 21
"Miss?" Seeing her stunned expression, Huo Zhao asked. Ruan Ruan's eyes suddenly lit up when they fell on him. Isn't there a ready-made candidate!
"Go back and eat. I have something for you to do later." Without waiting for Huo Zhao to say anything, Ruan Ruan pulled him up and ran back.
At the dining table, Butler Zhao looked at the bright red pickled vegetables that were served and his face darkened. Such pickled food that was harmful to the stomach would never appear on the Xu family's dining table.
Butler Zhao: It looks like the kitchen needs some work.
This was exactly what Ruan Ruan wanted. She picked up several pieces of food with her chopsticks, interrupting Butler Zhao's move to have someone clear the dishes away. He waved his hands helplessly and said, "It's just a once in a while. The most important thing is that the lady is happy."
After dinner, Huo Zhao came to Ruan Ruan's room. The feeling was very different from last night. The daytime light was warm and soft, and he couldn't help but relax in it.
Ruan Ruan: "Go buy me some snacks."
Huo Zhao didn't react immediately and asked uncertainly: "Snacks? What snacks?"
"Sour, spicy, strong-flavored, in short, junk food is fine." Ruan Ruan curled up on the sofa and swung her feet casually. "Be careful when you come back, don't let anyone find you."
There are several imported supermarkets near the villa area. Huo Zhao has heard the servants of the Xu family complain about the prices there, but he was still a little stunned when he saw a slice of bread priced at 189 yuan.
For a moment, he regretted entering this supermarket. After all, the young lady wanted junk food. Huo Zhao looked around and it didn't look like a high-end supermarket to have junk food.
Perhaps he had been wandering around for too long, and a saleswoman came up to him with a smile, "Hello, are you looking for something? I can show you the way."
Huo Zhao nodded and said, "Are there any snacks that girls like? Sour, spicy and strong flavors are best."
The salesperson asked back, "Are you buying it for your family or as a gift?"
The word "family" made Huo Zhao feel as if his heart skipped a beat, and Xu Ruanruan's fair little face immediately appeared in front of him.
family?
Family is a luxury for him. His family...
"It's my family." The man gave an ambiguous answer, curling his lips slightly and adding, "It must be clean and hygienic, without any additives."
The saleswoman seemed to have thought of something, and replied confidently, "Don't worry, the products we sell have all been inspected and are absolutely clean and hygienic."
"You come with me."
The transparent glass cabinet is filled with various kinds of spicy strips, which are soaked in red oil and emit waves of complex spicy aroma, constantly stimulating the taste buds.
It’s bright red, so it’s spicy, but…
"Will these be too spicy?" Huo Zhao asked as he wanted to.
"You can choose the spiciness. We make them all by hand, and the ingredients are safe. The ones you see are selling well, and some employers nearby will buy them for their children." The salesperson pointed to another glass cabinet and said, "But if you are pregnant, I recommend this one."
"Although this one costs a little more, it is individually made and has a slightly spicy taste. The formula was developed jointly by our company and the hospital. All spices that are not suitable during pregnancy are replaced with other ingredients, which is safer for pregnant mothers..."
The salesperson was still trying hard to sell the product, but Huo Zhao was stunned by the word "pregnant woman".
Pregnant women.
Pregnant women like spicy and sour food, right?
Huo Zhao only felt a thunderclap in his ears. Last time, the incident happened suddenly and he did not take any measures. Did she...
"Sir! Sir! Sir, what's wrong with you?" The salesperson waved his hands in front of him. Huo Zhao barely regained his senses, bought some recommended snacks in a daze, and couldn't wait to go back.
The saleswoman looked at his hurried back and couldn't help but secretly complain to her colleagues: "He looks like a man who loves his wife, but he doesn't seem very smart."
"Hey, he's stupid and rich. If I could meet a husband like him, I'd be willing to drive a luxury car and live in a villa."
"Hahahahaha, you stupid girl, you don't even want to suffer at all..."
Huo Zhao entered the villa gate, but his pace slowed down.
Looking at the familiar garden in front of him, he gradually came back to his senses and realized belatedly that the palm of his hand was in pain. The skin there had turned pale from being pinched by his clenched fist.
The man's mind was in a mess and he couldn't wait to see her. When he went upstairs, he remembered the eldest lady's instructions and avoided other people.
At this moment, the door upstairs was ajar, and the girl's lazy voice gradually drifted out...
inside the room.
The phone showed that it was currently on a call. Ruan Ruan was lying on the sofa, responding casually with "hmm". Her long black hair fell gracefully along the curve of her body, outlining her graceful figure. Even though one could not see her face clearly from a distance, one could tell that she was extremely beautiful.
The man's hand that was knocking on the door paused in mid-air, and his eyes were fixed on the beautiful scenery.
"...Xu Ruanruan! Did you hear what I said?!"
Zhu Xingyao on the other end of the phone roared loudly, and Ruan Ruan's sleepiness was immediately scared away. She responded casually: "I know, I know, it's just shopping, I'll accompany you."
As soon as these words came out, the other party immediately became gentle, like a cat being stroked. "That's better. Remember to bring your handsome bodyguard with you."
Ruan Ruan immediately sat up from the sofa, "Why are you looking for Huo Zhao?"
Zhu Xingyao seemed to hear the nervousness in her voice and laughed strangely, "What else can I do? Find a handsome guy to play with. Why, you can't bear to let him go?"
Ruan Ruan was about to answer when the small system told her that Huo Zhao was outside the door. She changed the subject and raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Of course, I'm reluctant to part with my people."
"What do you mean your people? I'm just looking...wait!" Hearing the charming tone of the voice from the other side, Zhu Xingyao suddenly seemed to understand something and burst into a terrifying scream, "Ah! Ah! Ah!"
It is unknown how scared Zhu's family was, but Ruan Ruan was glad that she hung up quickly, otherwise her ears would have been deafened by that girl's noise.
Outside the door, Huo Zhao paused for a few minutes, waiting for the heat on his face to dissipate before knocking on the door.
Ruan Ruan took the spicy strips and ate them happily. Seeing Huo Zhao's expression of wanting to say something but not being able to, she asked, "Is there anything else?"
The man hesitated, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a noisy sound outside the window mixed with the servants' joyful voices, "The master and the mistress are back!"
Ruan Ruan then remembered that today was the day Xu's father and mother were discharged from the hospital. They woke up after taking the fitness pills a few days ago, and stayed in the hospital for observation for a while before returning home today.
She was about to run downstairs when she heard the sound, her slippers clacking. Huo Zhao's heart trembled slightly, and he quickly grabbed her wrist, "Slow down, be careful not to fall."
Ruan Ruan just felt that he had been acting weird lately. Under the man's serious gaze, she nodded and walked out.
Huo Zhao followed behind her, caressing slowly with his fingertips, savoring the soft and delicate touch of his palm belatedly.
