Chapter 593

    

she thought it was food poisoning, perhaps from eating too much crab and it being too cold.Later, the pain became increasingly intense and was not like food poisoning. Upon returning home, she hurried...As long as it tastes good.

Xiaox Xia may have called Cao Yuan a fool for serving her, but she didn't forget that he also said she was cute.

She really couldn't imagine that someone like Cao Yuan, such a straight man and blockhead, would actually find her cute

Xiaoxu felt embarrassed looking at him, so she stared out the car window. "It's not easy making money as a bodyguard," she said. "The snacks are delicious, but they really aren't worth that much."

Cao Yuan gripped the steering wheel, stealing a glance at Xia's profile from the corner of his eye. He wasn't sure if she was focused on the scenery outside the window, so he quickly took another look at her. His gaze landed on her rosy cheeks before quickly darting away.

"It's fine, I have money."

Ho Mingzheng's men were always generous with their spending.

Besides their close brotherhood, although they were technically superior and subordinate, Huo Mingzheng treated the two brothers like his own siblings. He never interfered in their business affairs, which had grown considerably over the years, bringing them financial freedom long ago.

Xia Xia nodded in a way that suggested she understood but wasn't entirely sure, and suddenly realized. She and Cao Fang were both close to Huo Mingzheng, how could they possibly be short of money

And Cao Yuan doesn't seem like the kind of person who would exaggerate. He might be being humble when he says he has money, but the truth could be that he is incredibly wealthy.

But her first reaction was that he must be working hard as a bodyguard, which made them forget how wealthy they were.

She couldn't help but sigh, wondering what on earth she was thinking.

Looking around, she's the only poor one, okay

This way wasn't her way home. Xia realized this and asked Cao Yuan, "Where are we going"

The car passed through a tunnel, the orange-yellow lights shining through the windshield illuminated Cao Yuan's wheat-colored skin with a touch of warmth. "Do you still want to eat other delicious food"

Think about it.

Xiaoxa's brain subconsciously answered.

But having learned from past experiences, she was afraid of falling into his trap again after eating something he gave her. So, she became more cautious and asked him carefully: "So, what is it that you need my help with this time"

Cao Yuan frowned slightly, "No."

Xia Xia looked at him suspiciously, "I'll believe you one more time."

The car stopped at the edge of the night market. Cao Yuan got out of the car and, with Xia, walked to a barbecue restaurant.

Xia Xia was surprised, "How did you know I like to come to this barbecue restaurant"

Cao Yuan remained unfazed, "I just wandered around."

Xia Xia let out a soft "oh" and found a seat. She ordered some things and then handed the menu to Cao Yuan, "What do you want to eat"

Actually, Cao Yuan rarely goes to these kinds of places to eat. Firstly, he doesn't have much free time, and secondly, he finds them too noisy.

"Your turn," Cao Yuan pushed the slip of paper over again.

Xia Xia nodded. "Then I won't be polite."

She checked a few more dishes, and when it came to drinks, she was torn between beer and soda. Barbecue just didn't go well with soda, but as a girl who got into someone else's car, drinking seemed a bit inappropriate

Seemingly seeing through her turmoil, Cao Yuan cleared his throat and said, "If you want to drink, drink."

He's not unfamiliar with her being drunk.

Xia Xia thought about it and still checked Coca-Cola, "Forget it, I'm going to the Old People's Home with Sister Yan and Ji Lin tomorrow morning."

Cao Yuan stared at Xia Xia's face. She lowered her head, flipping through the menu in her hand and mumbling to herself, confirming what she had ordered.

And in his mind, he automatically extracted the key information from her words.

Miss Fu, tomorrow, at Guli Welfare Institute.he spoke of his late wife, his eyes welled up. Fu Yan looked on with a tight throat and a pang of heartache in her chest.She forced down her emotions, and said with a relaxed smile, "Grandpa, why don'...
