Chapter 612: Chapter 612: Just Want to Live a Steady Life

Yan Shen had an incredibly restless day, and was in a similar predicament as Luo Yifan.

Despite appearing calm and collected all day prior, as if he had everything under control,

In reality, he was very anxious.

Especially when he saw Chen Jing leave the restaurant dressed elegantly and glowing, he had thought that he had already lost.

Luckily, he held his patience and visited again in the afternoon. As a result, Bai Xiaolu, the little girl, told him that her grandfather had gone to a faraway place for treatment.

Which means, her elegant attire was not for meeting Bai Xiangdong.

Of course, this was not necessarily good news.

But compared to Bai Xiangdong, he would rather his rival be a friend Chen Jing wasn’t too familiar with.

Zhu Qianyu, the girl, seemed quite innocent. However, she was tight-lipped with his inquiries.

She and her elder sister were clearly allies.

However, it was also normal as the mother and daughters had depended on each other for so many years. As a daughter, their possessiveness towards their mother must be much stronger.

As an outsider, he would certainly need to put in extra effort and cunning to enter their circle.

He had waited for her until the restaurant closed last night. She didn’t chase him away, but she also didn’t pay attention to him. After closing time, she left in Yan family’s car.

Luo Yifan had prepared himself for possibly many more days of this.

However, Chen Jing resumed her regular routine today.

She had been worried that Bai Xiaolu wouldn’t adapt to Bai Shao’s absence, so she took both kids out every day and then sent Bai Xiaolu to school.

Starting to—from today Bai Xiaolu would be sent to school by the bodyguards, so she got up early to go to the wholesale market for shopping.

She bought a little too much today, so she returned to the restaurant later than usual.

As the car entered the street corner, she saw the familiar figure standing at the entrance from afar.

Chen Jing crinkled her brows slightly, and for a moment, she even thought about having the driver take her away.

However, she knew very well that she could avoid it today, but she wouldn’t be able to avoid it tomorrow.

Because, she had a hunch that this time, Luo Yifan was planning to stick with her persistently.

But what’s the point of doing so.

The car stopped in front of the store, and Luo Yifan who had been waiting cluelessly for who-knows-how-long, quickly stepped forward to open the car door for her.

"Boss Luo, morning!"

Chen Jing got out of the car gracefully, nodded and smiled at Luo Yifan, thanking him for his gentlemanly behavior.

Obviously, she’d tidied up all those messy feelings. At least, that’s how it seemed on the surface.

"Ah Jing, morning!"

As soon as Luo Yifan saw her get out of the car, he quickly went to the rear of the car. Once the driver had unlocked it, he opened the trunk and took out part of the goods inside.

From the level of proficiency, it was as if he did this every day.

But Chen Jing knew, he was a big boss and had not needed to do these sorts of chores since a long time ago.

"Boss Luo, let me handle this physical labor."

Chen Jing consciously went over, intending to take the groceries from him.

She wouldn’t mind if Bai Xiangdong did this, because she knew he was a straightforward and hardworking man who did whatever he wanted, free from ulterior motives.

But Luo Yifan was different. He was a businessman who would measure the cost and return of everything he did.

Of course, it’s not that she only wanted to take from him without giving anything in return.

However, she didn’t want to become an object of his calculations.

Although she could barely be considered a small businesswoman now, compared to him, she was as small as a sesame seed, while he was as big as a watermelon.

Therefore, whether in terms of cunningness or means, she was no match for him.

Since she’s no match for him, she might as well avoid him.

"You can rest, I’ve been sitting around these past few days, it’s time for me to move around a bit."

However, Luo defiantly Yifan carried big and small bags of goods to the entrance of the shop, leaving Chen Jing no choice but to go over to open the door for him.

Having a reason, Luo Yifan then boldly entered the kitchen again, and after entering, he never came out.

"Could you please help me buy two cups of soymilk and three fried dough sticks from the street corner store?"

These were not Chen Jing’s words, but Luo Yifan’s.

The driver immediately said it was no problem and scurried off.

During this time, Luo Yifan stayed in the kitchen, leaning against the kitchen counter, drinking the coffee he brought from the hotel, and watching Chen Jing busy herself.

Then he engaged in sporadic conversations with Chen Jing.

What were they chatting about?

Mainly about the difficulties he faced when he first started his business.

Occasionally, he would also mention his two sons.

As for his late wife, he had never mentioned her in front of Chen Jing.

About this point, Chen Jing thought he was quite considerate.

After all, it was a basic form of respect for his late wife and for Chen Jing.

Chen Jing didn’t intentionally listen to him, she just focused on her own tasks. So, it’s more accurate to say that he was talking to himself.

However, the stories from when he first started his business impacted and helped Chen Jing a lot.

Therefore, Chen Jing thought, him telling these stories must be part of a premeditated plan.

The driver, who might have been bought over, took double the usual time to buy breakfast and bring it back.

"Ah Jing, come out and have a seat while eating."

After receiving the breakfast from the driver, Luo Yifan walked out carrying it, and Chen Jing had to dutifully follow him.

She’s an adult and even if she’s not happy, she wouldn’t point at him and say, "I hate you behaving like this, please get lost and stop bothering me."

When she came out, Luo Yifan had already set the soymilk and fried dough sticks on the table, and pulled out the chair for her to sit.

If this courtesy had been present when Chen Jing was seventeen or eighteen, she might have followed him without hesitations, just like with Zhu Zhizhou.

However, at her current age, even if she’s naive, she knows that one who is kind when unasked, must be a thief or a crook.

Moreover, a man’s interest in a woman isn’t just about affection, but can also be simply about a physical desire.

And she’s past the age of thinking with her body and senses.

Both her daughters had asked her if she’d ever thought about finding a suitable partner again.

She never seemed to have given them a real answer, but the real answer was yes.

However, this desire was no longer about grand and exaggerated romance like when she was young.

She just wanted to find someone with common topics to happily accompany her, that’s enough.

Dramatic love with occasional games of push and pull, is only suitable for young people.

For her at this age, such relationships are too stimulating, she can’t handle it!
