Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant! by White Moon Lake

Chapter 277: Chapter 277 Nothing at All

Su Zhe sat nearby, spooning a mouthful of white rice into his mouth, spilling half of it along the way without even noticing, looking for all the world like a typical bystander thoroughly enjoying the spectacle of Qiao Li and Su Lu.

Fortunately, Zhao Xiaole was still very considerate and asked his lonely old uncle, "Uncle, won’t you come with us?"

Su Zhe waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no. Uncle’s not up to it, these old bones and back can’t handle that kind of excitement."

Zhao Xiaole still looked a bit disappointed, pouting, but soon cheered up at the thought of going out for a week and consoled himself, "It’s alright, I’ll go ask Uncle Xiao Tong."

Su Zhe thought to himself that Zhao Tong was always savvy, the most tactful of all, knowing that if Qiao Li and Su Lu were taking Zhao Xiaole, Zhao Tong would definitely not interfere.

Sure enough, after dinner, Zhao Xiaole called Zhao Tong on his phone.

Zhao Tong gently refused from the other end, "Xiao Le, I won’t be joining you. You go and have a great time, and then, bring me back some souvenirs to make me jealous, okay?"

Zhao Xiaole laughed heartily, agreeing repeatedly.

After ending the call, Zhao Tong walked in from the balcony and seeing the thin figure sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, he couldn’t help but sigh, "Aren’t you turning on the lights?"

"No."

The voice of Ying Xi was as indifferent as ever, carrying a cold metallic tone.

The high-rise apartment located in the CBD of Feng City was a part of a very high-end building.

Ying Xi had bought it last year, and the decorations were extremely minimalist; apart from the basic finishes, there were essentially no furnishings, empty, as if waiting for someone to fill it.

However, it was impeccably clean. Such a large space, devoid of furniture and spotlessly maintained, therefore felt very desolate.

Ying Xi never lived here, instead, he always stayed at the team base or the small villa near the base in the suburbs. During preparations for the world competition, Jiang Li would also stay at the base to watch their training, or else he’d crash at Ying Xi’s villa.

That villa was much cozier than this stark apartment.
