Chapter 318: Chapter 319: She Fell in Love, and He Became the Third Wheel 2

Mo Ran hurriedly stopped his train of thoughts, even if he froze to death, it had nothing to do with her.

Gu Yixuan had already regained his spirits. He straightened up, adjusting his clothes, his deep eyes looking at her as he spoke indifferently, "Going out to buy groceries? Let me come with you."

"No need!"

Ignoring Mo Ran’s guarded look, he snatched the shopping bag from her hand and commanded authoritatively, "Let’s go. You shouldn’t carry too much. You’re pregnant now, you have to think of the child."

"I said no need." Mo Ran tried to grab the bag back, but he avoided her.

He frowned impatiently and said, "I’m not concerned about you, I’m concerned about my child. I don’t want anything to happen to my child. If you keep arguing, I’ll have someone specially assigned to look after you."

Mo Ran was infuriated, "Why do you always have to threaten me?"

What’s worse was that she always gave in every time.

Gu Yixuan raised an eyebrow, and with a faint smile, replied, "Because, you need to be threatened!"

"..."

Fine, she didn’t want to argue with him any longer. If he wanted to follow, then let him follow.

Mo Ran closed the door and walked ahead, paying him no heed.

Gu Yixuan followed at her heels, silent as well.

Upon reaching the supermarket, Mo Ran headed straight for the vegetable section and indeed found some discounted vegetables. Now with prices rising, everything was expensive.

Sometimes, vegetables cost more than meats. She had the thought of being unable to afford vegetables and eating meat every day instead.

A group of aunties were already grabbing bargains there. Mo Ran too, eager to try, prepared to dash in and snatch a few greens.

She had barely taken two steps when someone grabbed her collar from behind.

"Let go, they’ll be gone in a moment!" Mo Ran pushed impatiently against his body, and Gu Yixuan’s face immediately darkened.

"Are you risking danger for a few greens?"

"Where’s the danger? Don’t exaggerate, please!" Mo Ran was anxious about the vegetables and spoke in a rush.

Gu Yixuan really wanted to tell her that he had so much money, enough for her to never run out in several lifetimes, and there was no need to risk it for a few discounted dozen yuan with his son in tow.

But he didn’t say it, knowing that even if he did, she would surely disdain it.

Handing her the shopping cart, he said coolly, "Take this, I’ll go."

Mo Ran was stunned. He would go???

Gu Yixuan first slowly rolled up his sleeves, revealing solid, tanned arms, and slightly squinted, staring at the vegetable section.

What was he planning to do? Fight?

Please, it was just about grabbing a few vegetables, let’s not turn it into a bloody incident.
