My Wife is a Beautiful CEO - Chapter 401

Expansion of the Female Dorm

Sorry for the late post! I will never skip a release day. So if there's no chapter on time, chances are I forgot to schedule it in the morning. :P

By the time Lin Ruoxi was content with speaking, half an hour had gone by. Yang Chen didn't feel any discomfort in the cold wind but Lin Ruoxi's nose and cheeks turned reddish after being blown by the wind for some time.

As they walked down the hill, Yang Chen removed his coat to place it on Lin Ruoxi's back.

Lin Ruoxi tried to reject his offer, but failed to push Yang Chen's hand back. As she felt touched in her heart, she said softly, "There's no need for you to do this. It's a short distance, i'll be fine."

"But not short enough that you won't catch a cold. It's the new year eve tomorrow. It would be terrible if you were to get sick now," Yang Chen said.

When the two got in the car, Lin Ruoxi was reminded of something. She asked, "You mentioned that Zhenxiu went back to school to continue her studies, didn't you?"

"Yeah." Yang Chen was surprised at Lin Ruoxi for asking this question.

Lin Ruoxi asked again, "Is she still living alone?"

Yang Chen managed to guess her intention. "Are you going to try to convince Zhenxiu to spend the new years with us?"

Lin Ruoxi hesitated for a bit before nodding. "That is if she's willing to come with us. I feel that although she wouldn't mind celebrating it alone, It's better if we can bring her home. It'd be merrier this way after all. Although the new year is tomorrow, she can come over to help us cook and prepare together. I bet she'll like it."

"You certainly behave like Zhenxiu's elder sister. You always watch out for her," Yang Chen said jokingly.

Lin Ruoxi shook her head. "You don't understand. To me, Zhenxiu is the representation of my past when my Grandma had not passed away yet. She was still a little kid when I first knew her. Since I don't have any siblings, she's a little sister whom I've watched grow up. There exists a unique bond between us."

"I'm not against the idea. There's no need to explain yourself" Yang Chen said with a smile before starting the engine.

Lin RUoxi rolled her eyes before quietly taking Yang Chen's coat off and putting it on the back seat.

They soon arrived at Zhenxiu's rented apartment. She was there moving a huge box up the stairs.

Zhenxiu was wearing a rather old, light orange coat. She had her hair tied up in a ponytail, while her childish and naive cheeks were stained with black and gray spots. It was a very chilly day, but Zhenxiu's forehead was still covered with sweat.

Yang Chen got off his car and approached Zhenxiu before taking her large box. He asked, "Kid, what are you carrying?"

At first, Zhenxiu assumed it was a thief. She rested easy when she realized it was Yang Chen. A cheerful smile surfaced as she asked, "Brother Yang, why have yo come? It's nothing much, just a bunch of secondhand revision books."

Yang Chen took a look inside the box. It was indeed filled with science and English books. He guessed that she had found a good deal for them at cheap prices. Smiling, he said, "Even if you want to work hard for your studies, there's no need to push yourself so hard when the new year is right around the corner, do you?"

Zhenxiu looked rather pale. Forcing a smile, she said, "It's fine. It's just the new year. It'll pass quickly when I read and do other stuff."
