Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1626: Chapter 1625: Still Friends Afterward

The heartbeat, in an instant, was in disarray!

Lying on the bed, Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly sat up.

She tightly pressed her lips together, jumped off the bed, and ran over to lock the door.

Returning to the bed, she pressed the answer button, trying her best to let her voice smoothly and calmly flow out of her red lips, “Hello!”

“Xiaoxiao, it’s me.”

The voice that reached her eardrums was low and hoarse.

Like an invisible giant hand, it suddenly clutched Bai Xiaoxiao’s heart.

She clearly felt that hearing Luo Haofeng’s voice at this moment was much more disconcerting than when she’d been abroad.

She didn’t know if it was because, back then, they were separated by the Pacific Ocean, and now, only by a thousand miles.

The grip on her phone tightened again and again.

She took a deep breath, calmed her emotions a little, and softly asked, “Did you get home?”

“Yeah, I’m home. I didn’t know you were going to be there tonight.”

Through the phone, Bai Xiaoxiao could clearly hear the obvious apology in Luo Haofeng’s words.

The handsome face she saw in the car this afternoon inexplicably flashed before her eyes, and a trace of warmth unconsciously rose in her eyes.

“I decided last minute too, Ranran said Mo Xiuchen was cooking himself, which is so rare, I thought I’d go and taste Mo Xiuchen’s cooking, who knew I’d still be late.”

As she spoke, Bai Xiaoxiao’s tone gradually became lighthearted, losing the initial tension she had when she first answered the phone.

Listening to her cheerful voice, Luo Haofeng also smiled on the other end of the phone.

“Xiu Chen’s cooking is excellent, tonight his dishes were all gone. However, he usually only cooks for Ranran. Next time, have a taste of my cooking.”

Luo Haofeng naturally spoke this kind of self-promotional talk.

There was also a hint of laughter in his words.

That deep, joyful voice was very pleasant to hear, as Bai Xiaoxiao leaned against the head of the bed, she relaxed, with a slight smile and a bit of laziness on her face.

“Sure, if there’s a chance.”

“As long as you want to eat, I have time anytime.” Luo Haofeng could never dream that Bai Xiaoxiao was still willing to chat with him like this.

His mood at this moment was indescribably excited, thrilled.

But he didn’t show it all, because he didn’t dare.

He tried hard to restrain his excitement and endeavor to act like an old friend.

“Aren’t you going on a blind date? How can you have time anytime?”

Bai Xiaoxiao asked with a smile.

“Don’t mention it, the woman I met this morning almost fangirled me to death. I’m considering whether to stop doing such a dangerous thing.”

Luo Haofeng’s exaggerated words made Bai Xiaoxiao laugh.

“To prove your boundless charm, you should continue the blind dates to the end.”

Bai Xiaoxiao teased Luo Haofeng while laughing.

Through the phone, Luo Haofeng listened to her laughter, his narrow, romantic eyes filled with warmth and affection.

He sighed longly, “Alright then, I’ll continue the blind dates tomorrow. Every time I meet one, I will report the results to you once.”

“Why?”

“To share, wasn’t it you who said I should continue the blind dates to the end?”

Bai Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and switched the phone to her other hand, “I believe there will be women who won’t be so obsessed with your looks, so, you don’t have to report to me every day, just let me know when you find a suitable one.”

“You said it, if there’s no one, you’ll have to help me find one.”

“…”

Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly didn’t know how to answer; where was she to find one who wasn’t obsessed with him and could satisfy him?

After a moment of silence over the phone, Luo Haofeng’s voice came through again, “Xiaoxiao, it’s late, you should rest.”

Hearing this sentence, Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly felt a little reluctant.

Reluctant to hang up the phone.

After waiting for two seconds, Luo Haofeng on the other end didn’t hear her voice, and softly called her name again, “Xiaoxiao.”

Bai Xiaoxiao squeezed out a smile, “Okay, goodnight.”

“Xiaoxiao, let’s remain friends in the future.”

Before she hung up the phone, Luo Haofeng’s voice softly came through.

His low voice carried an emotion that tightened Bai Xiaoxiao’s heart, seemed tense, seemed uneasy, yet seemed expectant.

Bai Xiaoxiao thought of what she had said to him before, that she hoped they would become strangers if they met again.

A blockage seemed to press against her chest.

Suddenly, she couldn’t breathe smoothly.

“Xiaoxiao?”

Luo Haofeng called gently on the other end of the phone.

Bai Xiaoxiao looked up at the ceiling and pretended to be light-hearted, “Of course, for Ranran and Mo Xiuchen’s sake, we’ll still be friends in the future.”

“Then I’m relieved, Xiaoxiao, goodnight.”

After hanging up the phone, Luo Haofeng whistled happily.

He reflected on the words they said today at Mo Xiuchen’s house, and suddenly, a glimmer of hope arose between him and Bai Xiaoxiao.

But he still hadn’t figured out exactly what to do.

The sound from outside the door suddenly interrupted his thoughts, and Luo Haofeng frowned, got up, and opened the door.

“Mom, aren’t you afraid of getting wrinkles staying up so late?”

After opening the door, Luo Haofeng turned and walked into the room.

Mother Luo scowled at him unhappily and followed him into the room, “Ah Feng, are you hoping your mom grows old and dies soon?”

Luo Haofeng turned his head and looked at Mother Luo’s angry face, “Mom, you’re overthinking.”

“Then why do you keep saying I’m getting wrinkles.”

Mother Luo raised her hand to touch the corners of her eyes and then touched her forehead. She had indeed gained many wrinkles recently.

“I just don’t want you to age quickly. You love beauty so much you should sleep earlier. Did you go to the beauty salon today?”

Luo Haofeng looked at Mother Luo with arms crossed.

Mother Luo nodded, “I went; I came to ask you if your business trip went smoothly?”

“It went smoothly, Mom, you quickly go back to sleep. I need to shower and sleep too.”

He said in a tired tone.

Mother Luo smiled gently, “I just asked Auntie to make some food for you, you worked hard on your business trip, also rushed back so late, wash up and eat something before you sleep.”

“Mom, no need, I’m not hungry.”

Luo Haofeng frowned slightly; he ate a lot at dinner.

“How can you not be hungry, business trips are hard work. You don’t have to get up so early tomorrow morning; the first blind date is at ten. I thought you’d rush back by tomorrow morning, so I postponed it.”

Mother Luo said distressedly, “I let you go on blind dates, not to make you accept just anyone. Don’t worry, today I asked Madam Zhou to prepare some resources, you can take your time choosing, be sure to choose someone you like.”

He agreed to blind dates, so Mother Luo naturally wouldn’t force him to be with anyone.

Previously forcing him to marry Qi Meiling, and as a result, that car accident almost cost her son. Mother Luo had learned her lesson this time.

Let Luo Haofeng choose someone he likes himself; besides, among these women for blind dates, none of them included the Bai Xiaoxiao she disliked.
