Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain

Lisa didnt need to return to Chen Mingyes place, so she had no intention to stay longer than she needed to. After she had dropped them off and seeing that Li Jinyuan had his own chauffeur, she left with Chen Mingyes chauffeur.

Get in. Well stop by and pick up some groceries on our way home, said Li Jinyuan. His tone was natural without any awkwardness.

That was good. Zhong Yuhuan let out a sigh of relief.

She had truly thought of them as real family in the last few years; shed hate for them to grow apart from each other because they were now attending different schools.

As he talked, Li Jinyuan waved at a car which then approached them. It was now that Zhong Yuhuan had taken a good look at the car; it was a Toyota Alphard.

Not a cheap price tag on this car.

Its a pretty good model among minivans.

That meant that Li Jinyuan had rising in status among his company.

Thats a good thing!

Zhong Yuhuans mouth curved upward, and she climbed inside the car.

After they were all seated, the chauffeur started the car and headed toward the direction of their apartment.

The car first stopped at a grocery store near their apartment. Everybody got out and planned for a big shopping trip as Christmas would be here soon.

They only have two weeks off. When it was spring break, theyd already have started their second semester; they could only enjoy themselves a bit around the Christmas holidays.

Christmas in and of itself wasnt very meaningful, but them all being together made it meaningful.

After they have walked inside the grocery story, both young men followed Zhong Yuhuan closely.

Zhong Yuhuan looked back helplessly, Dont you want to go pick up something for yourself?

Li Jinyuan gave her a little smile, a trace of weariness could be detected in his eyes, I have already bought too much when I was apart from Huanhuan. Now I just want to spend more time shopping with Huanhuan.

His dialog being stolen, Huo Chengming had no other choice but to grumble in agreement.

Alright, Zhong Yuhuan felt no guilt in bossing them around, Lets bring home a Christmas tree, three santa hats, some French rolls, and caviar. We will also need some hot dogs, cheese, pizza, maybe some seafood such as crab or mussels. I also want to get some yogurt.

The young men quickly memorized everything she had listed out and split up in looking for the items.

Zhong Yuhuan, on the other hand, happily pushed around the cart and started browsing for snacks that she liked, and then there was cola, red wine.

The young men were quick in their actions. Zhong Yuhuan had been stopping and going, so before she was done picking out what she wanted, the two young men were already done with the list and went back to where she was.

You guys are already done? Okay, give me a minute. Zhong Yuhuan turned her head, then reached for a big of corn chips on the shelf.

Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan reached out their hands almost at the same time and grabbed the bag of chips.

Zhong Yuhuan sighed and said, Okay. I know you are both very tall. Can someone just grab that for me?

Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan exchanged a look, and neither one of them let go of the bag of chips.

Zhong Yuhuan couldnt help but looked suspiciously at Huo Chengming, then at Li Jinyuan, Eh? Whats going on now?

Li Jinyuan let go of it immediately.

Huo Chengming brought the bag down before he looked and noticed that it was a bag of junk food. Huo Chengming frowned but still obediently placed it inside the shopping cart. as he looked at Zhong Yuhuans cheerful face, Huo Chengming thought; a healthy eating style. Would take time.. She was in a good mood today and he didnt want to put a damper to that.

They pushed their carts to the cash register.

Zhong Yuhuan was just about to reach for her purse when Huo Chengming said in a low voice, I got this.

Li Jinyuan also said, I got it.

Zhong Yuhuan, ..

Do you want to settle it with a game of roshambo. The one who loses pays?
