Chapter 655: Why Can He Get Along So Well Even with Strangers?
1
The morning sunlight streamed through the window,
Falling upon Shen Xinglan, who was fast asleep,
Just like the gentle morning light itself,
Casting a few golden rays onto the bedsheets.
The sunlight hit her face,
She slowly stirred,
And opened her eyes,
Seeing the gentle sunlight outside,
A trace of confusion in her eyes.
Then, as if remembering something,
A moving smile appeared on her face.
Her moving smile,
Was like a flower under the sun,
Charming and full of life.
She lay quietly in bed for a while,
Then slowly got up.
She stretched,
Feeling the relaxation and comfort throughout her body.
Afterward, she went into the bathroom,
And after washing up,
She took out a suit from the wardrobe,
A light pink dress,
After changing,
She looked at herself in the full-length mirror,
A satisfied smile appearing on her face.
The time was 7:30 AM,
She walked out of the room,
And went downstairs.
In the living room on the first floor,
Su Bai was sitting on the sofa,
Reading a newspaper.
Hearing her footsteps,
He looked up,
And looked over,
Seeing her,
Su Bai put down the newspaper in his hand,
Stood up,
With a gentle smile on his face,
He walked towards her.
“Awake?”
His voice was magnetic and gentle.
She nodded, a faint smile on her face.
“Good morning, husband.”
Su Bai approached her,
Raised his hand,
And gently ruffled her hair,
His voice full of doting:
“Go eat, the food is getting cold.”
She walked towards the dining room,
Su Bai followed behind her.
Arriving at the dining room,
A sumptuous breakfast was laid out on the table.
Su Bai walked to her side,
And pulled out a chair.
After she sat down,
Su Bai pushed the chair back.
Then he sat down opposite her.
“Eat more.”
Su Bai said.
“You too.”
She raised her head and looked at Su Bai,
Saying with a smile.
The two looked at each other and smiled,
Then began to eat breakfast.
After breakfast,
Su Bai said he wanted to take her somewhere.
She asked where.
Su Bai just smiled and said,
“You’ll know when we get there.”
She had no choice,
So she followed Su Bai.
Su Bai took her to the garage,
And drove out a black sports car.
The two of them got into the car,
Su Bai started the engine,
And drove off in a certain direction.
The car drove on the road for about an hour.
Finally, it stopped in a villa area.
Su Bai led her into the cluster of villas.
On the way,
Shen Xinglan saw,
These were all detached villas,
Each with its own independent yard,
With various flowers and trees planted in the yard,
The environment was very beautiful.
Su Bai led her to a,
Newly built villa.
Then he took out a key,
And opened the door.
“Go in.”
Shen Xinglan walked into the villa,
The interior decoration was also very beautiful,
In her preferred style.
“Where is this?”
She asked.
“This is our future home.”
Su Bai hugged her from behind,
His voice full of tenderness.
Shen Xinglan’s heart stirred.
“I bought it.”
Su Bai said,
“I hope,
In the days to come,
We can create our own memories here.”
Shen Xinglan turned around,
Wrapped her arms around Su Bai’s neck,
And looked at him affectionately,
“Husband, I love you.”
“I love you too,
My Xinglan.”
Su Bai said,
Then,
He lowered his head,
And kissed her lips.
Their kiss,
Gentle and deep,
The air was filled with sweetness.
“I have to go to work now.”
Su Bai said,
“You rest here for a bit,
I’ll come back at noon to have lunch with you.”
“Okay.”
Shen Xinglan nodded,
“Be careful on your way.”
Su Bai kissed her forehead again,
And then left.
Shen Xinglan watched Su Bai’s departing back,
Her face beaming with a happy smile.
Then,
She began to look around the new home.
The villa had three floors,
The first floor had the living room, dining room, kitchen,
Guest room, study, and a storage room.
The second floor had the master bedroom,
Guest room,
Gym, and a balcony.
The third floor had a huge walk-in closet,
A movie room, and a game room.
Shen Xinglan walked into the walk-in closet,
It was filled with all sorts of clothes,
Casual wear,
Evening gowns,
Pajamas, etc.,
As well as various shoes and accessories.
These were all in her size,
She picked up a dress,
And smiled, shaking her head.
“This bastard.”
She muttered,
“When did you prepare all this?”
She picked up her mobile phone,
And sent Su Bai a message:
“When did you buy the house?”
Su Bai quickly replied:
“If you like it, it’s our home.
Do you like it?”
Shen Xinglan smiled,
Her fingers quickly typing on the phone:
“I like it, I like it very much.”
Su Bai replied again:
“Glad you like it.”
Putting down her phone,
Shen Xinglan turned to look at the clothes in the walk-in closet.
She discovered a secret,
A men’s shirt was hanging in the closet,
She took it out and looked at it.
The shirt was white,
And it was Su Bai’s size.
She smiled and shook her head,
And hung the shirt back.
She browsed around the walk-in closet again,
Then walked out.
As she passed the movie room,
She saw a projector inside,
With a huge screen on the wall,
A large sofa was placed below the screen,
Along with some snacks and drinks.
She walked in,
And sat on the sofa.
She found the remote control,
And turned on the projector.
Images quickly appeared on the screen.
She chose a movie and started watching.
She hadn’t finished half the movie,
When she fell asleep.
She didn’t know how long she slept,
When she was awakened by a fragrance.
She opened her eyes,
And saw Su Bai standing in front of her,
Holding a tray in his hand.
On the tray was a bowl of porridge and some side dishes.
“Awake?”
Su Bai’s gentle voice came.
She nodded, then sat up.
“I made lunch,
Eat a little first.”
Su Bai said.
“Okay.”
She took the bowl of porridge from Su Bai’s hand,
And began to eat.
After lunch,
Su Bai accompanied her to watch a movie for a while longer.
“I have a meeting to attend this afternoon,
I’ll be back tonight to accompany you.”
Su Bai said.
“Okay.”
She nodded,
“Go ahead.”
Su Bai kissed her forehead again,
And then left.
Shen Xinglan watched Su Bai’s departing back,
Her heart filled with sweetness.
In the afternoon,
Shen Xinglan wandered around the villa.
She went into the study,
There was a large desk in the study,
A laptop was placed on the desk.
The bookshelves were filled with all sorts of books.
Next to the study,
Was a small balcony,
With a table and two chairs on it.
She walked onto the balcony,
Looking at the distant scenery,
Breathing in the fresh air.
She suddenly missed Su Bai,
Missed him by her side.
She took out her mobile phone,
And called Su Bai.
The call was quickly connected.
“What’s wrong?”
Su Bai’s gentle voice came.
“I miss you.”
Shen Xinglan said,
Her voice carrying a hint of coquettishness.
Su Bai smiled,
“Good girl, I’ll be there as soon as I’m done,
And accompany you.”
“Okay.”
Shen Xinglan said,
“You should also take care of yourself,
Don’t get too tired.”
“Okay.”
They chatted for a few more sentences,
And then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone,
Shen Xinglan’s mood improved considerably.
She wandered around the villa again,
Then returned to the bedroom.
In the bedroom,
There was a large bed,
The bedsheets were in her favorite color.
On the bedside table was a photo frame,
In the frame was a photo of her and Su Bai.
She looked at the two people in the photo,
Her face beaming with a happy smile.
She walked to the window,
And looked at the scenery outside.
Outside the window,
The greenery was lush,
And the air was filled with the fresh scent of grass and trees.
She took out her mobile phone,
And sent a message to her best friend:
“I’m married.”
Her best friend quickly replied:
“Congratulations, darling.”
Shen Xinglan smiled.
She sent another message to Su Bai:
“I’m so happy.”
Su Bai replied:
“Me too.”
Shen Xinglan’s heart felt sweet.
She wandered around the room again,
Then walked out.
As she passed the living room,
She saw a suitcase.
“This bastard.”
She smiled again.
The suitcase contained,
Some of her intimate apparel.
She went into the kitchen,
Opened the refrigerator,
And found it filled with all sorts of fresh ingredients.
She decided,
To cook Su Bai a sumptuous dinner tonight.
She took out the ingredients,
And began to busy herself.
Time passed quickly,
And in a blink, it was six o’clock in the evening.
Shen Xinglan finished cooking dinner,
And then sat in the living room waiting for Su Bai to return.
At seven o’clock,
Su Bai returned.
As soon as he entered the door,
He saw Shen Xinglan.
She was wearing,
A light pink dress,
Her hair cascaded down her shoulders,
A gentle smile on her face.
“Husband.”
She stood up,
And walked towards Su Bai.
Su Bai put down the documents in his hand,
Reached out his hand,
And hugged her,
“I’m back.”
“Welcome home.”
Shen Xinglan said.
Su Bai kissed her forehead,
“I smell something delicious.”
Shen Xinglan smiled,
“I made dinner,
Go wash your hands quickly,
We can eat now.”
The two went to the dining room,
A sumptuous dinner was laid out on the table,
Braised pork,
Sweet and sour pork ribs,
Stir-fried seasonal vegetables,
And a bowl of soup.
Su Bai sat down,
Looked at the dishes on the table,
A happy smile appearing on his face.
“You’ve worked hard, my wife.”
Su Bai said.
“It’s no trouble.”
Shen Xinglan said,
“Eat quickly.”
The two began to eat dinner.
Su Bai ate her cooking,
His eyes filled with satisfaction.
“Delicious?”
Shen Xinglan asked.
“Delicious,
My wife’s cooking,
Is always the most delicious.”
Su Bai said.
Shen Xinglan smiled,
Her heart filled with sweetness.
After dinner,
Su Bai took Shen Xinglan,
To the living room.
The two sat on the sofa,
Su Bai held her,
And watched television.
A romantic movie was playing on the television.
Shen Xinglan leaned into Su Bai’s embrace,
Feeling exceptionally at ease.
“Husband,”
Shen Xinglan asked,
“When are we going on our honeymoon?”
Su Bai lowered his head,
Kissed the top of her head,
“Where do you want to go?”
“I want to go to the Maldives.”
Shen Xinglan said.
“Okay,
We’ll go next month.”
Su Bai said.
Shen Xinglan raised her head,
And looked at him affectionately,
“Husband,
I really love you so much.”
“I know.”
Su Bai said,
Then,
He lowered his head,
And kissed her lips again.
Their kiss,
Gentle and lingering,
The air was filled with deep love.
After the kiss,
Su Bai held Shen Xinglan,
And walked into the bedroom.
“Tonight,
I want to love you well.”
Su Bai said.
Shen Xinglan’s face turned red,
She didn’t speak.
Su Bai placed her on the large bed,
Then,
Slowly,
Kissed her lips.
This night,
Was warm and sweet.

When Shen Xinglan woke up,
It was already the next morning.
She opened her eyes,
And saw Su Bai fast asleep beside her.
On his handsome face,
There was a hint of fatigue,
His breathing even and slow.
Shen Xinglan raised her hand,
Gently,
Traced the outline of his face.
This man,
Was her husband,
The one she loved the most.
She gently,
Kissed his forehead.
Su Bai was woken by her kiss,
He opened his eyes,
And saw Shen Xinglan looking at him tenderly.
“Awake?”
Su Bai’s voice was hoarse.
“Mmm.”
Shen Xinglan nodded.
Su Bai raised his hand,
Gently ruffled her hair,
“Sleep a little longer.”
“I’m not sleepy.”
Shen Xinglan said.
Su Bai smiled,
“Then let’s get up.”
The two got out of bed together,
After washing up,
Su Bai took Shen Xinglan,
To the dining room.
Breakfast was already prepared,
Su Bai had made it himself.
After they finished breakfast,
Su Bai said,
“Today I’m going to take you,
To see a very important person.”
“Who?”
Shen Xinglan asked.
“My mother.”
Su Bai said,
His voice tinged with nostalgia.
Shen Xinglan’s heart stirred,
“Okay.”
The two got into the car,
Su Bai drove towards the outskirts of the city.
The car drove for over an hour.
Finally,
It stopped in front of a public cemetery.
Su Bai led Shen Xinglan,
To a tombstone.
On the tombstone,
Was inscribed the name of Su Bai’s mother,
And a photo.
The woman in the photo,
Was gentle and beautiful.
Su Bai stood in front of the tombstone,
A nostalgic expression on his face,
“Mom,
I’ve come to see you.”
Shen Xinglan also stepped forward,
And bowed ninety degrees to the tombstone,
“Mom,
Hello,
I am Shen Xinglan,
Bai Ge’s wife.”
Su Bai turned around,
Looked at Shen Xinglan,
A gentle smile on his face.
“Mom,
I know,
You always wanted me to find a woman,
Who loves me,
And whom I love.
Look,
I found her.”
Su Bai said.
Shen Xinglan’s heart,
Was filled with emotion.
The two stood at the tombstone for a long time,
Before leaving.
Back in the car,
Shen Xinglan leaned on Su Bai’s shoulder,
Her heart feeling warm.
“Husband.”
She softly called his name.
“Mmm?”
Su Bai turned his head,
And looked at her.
“Thank you.”
Shen Xinglan said.
“Thank me for what?”
Su Bai asked.
“Thank you,
For giving me a home.”
Shen Xinglan said.
Su Bai smiled,
“It’s what I should do.”
He started the car,
And drove towards the city.
Arriving home,
It was already noon.
Su Bai led Shen Xinglan,
To the living room.
“This afternoon,
I have to go to the company,
I’ll be back tonight to accompany you.”
Su Bai said.
“Mmm.”
Shen Xinglan nodded,
“Go ahead,
Be careful on your way.”
Su Bai kissed her forehead again,
And then left.
Shen Xinglan watched Su Bai’s departing back,
Her heart filled with reluctance.
In the afternoon,
Shen Xinglan read a book in the study.
She found a book,
That told the story of Su Bai’s mother.
The book said,
Su Bai’s mother was a,
Very gentle and kind woman,
She was killed by enemies,
In order to protect Su Bai.
Shen Xinglan’s heart,
Was filled with admiration for Su Bai’s mother.
She closed the book,
And sighed.
She went to the balcony,
Looking at the distant scenery,
Missing Su Bai in her heart.
Shen Xinglan took out her mobile phone,
And sent Su Bai a message:
“I miss you.”
Su Bai quickly replied:
“Good girl, I’ll be back soon.”
Shen Xinglan smiled,
“I’ll wait for you.”
She put down her phone,
And continued to look at the distant scenery.
In the evening,
Su Bai returned.
As soon as he entered the door,
He saw Shen Xinglan.
She was sitting on the sofa watching television,
A gentle smile on her face.
“Husband.”
She stood up,
And walked towards Su Bai.
Su Bai put down his briefcase,
Reached out his hand,
And hugged her,
“I’m back.”
“Welcome home.”
Shen Xinglan said.
Su Bai kissed her forehead,
“I brought you a gift.”
Shen Xinglan’s eyes lit up,
“What gift?”
Su Bai took out a delicate gift box from his briefcase.
Shen Xinglan took the gift box,
And opened it to find,
A necklace inside.
The pendant of the necklace,
Was a heart-shaped diamond.
The diamond sparkled brilliantly under the light.
“Do you like it?”
Su Bai asked.
“I like it,
I like it very much.”
Shen Xinglan said,
“Thank you,
Husband.”
She raised her head,
And imprinted a kiss on Su Bai’s face.
Su Bai smiled,
“Glad you like it.”
He took out the necklace,
And personally put it on her.
The necklace on her neck,
Set off her fair skin,
Making her even more beautiful and charming.
“Very beautiful.”
Su Bai praised.
“Thank you.”
Shen Xinglan said.
After they finished dinner,
Su Bai took Shen Xinglan,
To the movie room.
The two snuggled on the sofa,
Watching a movie.
In the movie,
The male and female protagonists were embracing and kissing.
Shen Xinglan raised her head,
And looked at Su Bai,
“Husband.”
Su Bai lowered his head,
And kissed her lips.
This kiss,
Was gentle and lingering.

In the days after Su Bai and Shen Xinglan got married,
They lived very happily.
Su Bai doted on Shen Xinglan,
Spoiling her into,
A happy little woman.
Shen Xinglan was also,
Gentle and considerate towards Su Bai,
Managing his life,
In an orderly manner.
Every morning,
They would wake up together,
And have breakfast together.
After Su Bai went to work,
Shen Xinglan would either,
Do housework,
Or read books,
Or go shopping with her best friend.
In the evening,
After Su Bai returned,
They would have dinner together,
Watch television together,
Or take a walk together.
On weekends,
Su Bai would take Shen Xinglan,
On picnics,
Or to the movies,
Or on trips.
Their lives,
Were filled with love and sweetness.
On a weekend morning,
Shen Xinglan woke up,
And found Su Bai was not by her side.
She got up,
Got dressed,
And went downstairs.
She arrived at the dining room,
And found a note on the table.
The note read:
“Darling,
I’m going to the company,
I’ll be back soon.
I’ve already made breakfast,
Eat it quickly.”
Shen Xinglan smiled,
This bastard,
Always so thoughtful.
She picked up the note,
Kissed the words on it,
And then began to eat breakfast.
After breakfast,
Shen Xinglan went to the living room,
And sat on the sofa watching television.
A moment later,
Her phone rang,
It was her best friend calling.
“Xinglan,
Let’s go shopping.”
Her best friend said.
“Okay.”
Shen Xinglan said.
She changed her clothes,
And went out.
The two arrived at the mall,
And began to shop.
Shen Xinglan saw a dress she liked,
But it was a bit expensive.
“If you like it, buy it.”
Her best friend said.
“No,
It’s too expensive.”
Shen Xinglan said.
“What are you afraid of?
You have Su Bai,
Your money tree.”
Her best friend said.
Shen Xinglan smiled,
“It’s not easy for him to earn money either.”
“You’re wrong about that,
Su Bai is a big shot in the business world,
Earning money is as easy as pie for him.”
Her best friend said.
Shen Xinglan shook her head,
“I can’t always spend his money.”
“Silly girl.”
Her best friend said,
“Su Bai loves you,
He’ll be happy if you spend his money.”
Shen Xinglan raised her head,
And looked at her best friend,
“You’re right.”
She walked into the store,
And bought the dress.
After shopping,
The two went to a coffee shop,
And sat down.
“Xinglan,
When are you and Su Bai going to have a baby?”
Her best friend asked.
Shen Xinglan’s face turned red,
“We haven’t decided yet.”
“You should hurry up,
Have a baby soon,
Then your family will be complete.”
Her best friend said.
“Mmm,
I know.”
Shen Xinglan said.
The two chatted for a while longer,
Then separated.
Shen Xinglan returned home,
Su Bai was already back.
He was sitting in the living room reading a newspaper.
“Husband.”
Shen Xinglan walked forward,
And hugged him.
Su Bai put down the newspaper,
Turned around,
And hugged her,
“You’re back?”
“Mmm.”
Shen Xinglan said.
“Tired from shopping?”
Su Bai asked.
“Not tired.”
Shen Xinglan said,
A happy smile on her face.
Su Bai kissed her forehead,
“I’ll go draw you a bath.”
“Okay.”
Shen Xinglan said.
Su Bai went to the bathroom,
And filled the bathtub.
Shen Xinglan walked into the bathroom,
And soaked in the warm bathwater,
Feeling relaxed all over.
After her bath,
She changed into her pajamas,
And walked out.
Su Bai had already prepared dinner,
And was waiting for her in the dining room.
After the two finished dinner,
They returned to the bedroom together.
Su Bai hugged her from behind,
And kissed her neck.
“Tonight,
Let’s try to have a baby.”
Su Bai said.
Shen Xinglan’s face turned red,
“Okay.”
This night,
Was warm and sweet.
4
A month later,
Su Bai fulfilled his promise,
And took Shen Xinglan,
To the Maldives.
The two lived in a villa by the sea,
Every morning,
They watched the sunrise together,
And took walks together.
During the day,
They dived together,
And sunbathed together.
At night,
They watched the stars together,
And listened to the sound of the waves together.
Their honeymoon trip,
Was filled with love and romance.
One evening,
The two were walking on the beach.
The afterglow of the setting sun,
Shone on the sea,
Gleaming with golden light.
Su Bai hugged Shen Xinglan from behind,
“Xinglan, I love you.”
Su Bai said.
“I love you too, husband.”
Shen Xinglan said.
The two embraced and kissed,
Beneath the setting sun,
Leaving behind,
A beautiful and romantic scene.
After the honeymoon trip,
The two returned home.
The next day,
Shen Xinglan felt a little unwell,
Su Bai took her to the hospital.
After the examination results came out,
Su Bai looked at the report in his hand,
A surprised smile appearing on his face.
“Wife, you’re pregnant.”
Su Bai said.
Shen Xinglan cried with excitement upon hearing the news.
“Really?”
Shen Xinglan asked.
“Really.”
Su Bai said,
“We’re going to be parents.”
The two hugged each other tightly,
Their hearts filled with happiness.
Returning home,
Su Bai became even more doting towards Shen Xinglan.
Every morning,
He personally made breakfast for her.
Whatever she wanted to eat,
Su Bai would find a way,
To get it for her.
Whatever she wanted to do,
Su Bai would accompany her.
Her life,
Was filled with love and care.
Ten months later,
Shen Xinglan gave birth to,
A cute little princess.
The little princess’s eyes,
Were as bright as Shen Xinglan’s,
Her nose was as prominent as Su Bai’s,
Her skin was fair and delicate.
Su Bai looked at the little princess in his arms,
His face beaming with a happy smile.
“Wife, you’ve worked hard.”
Su Bai said.
“It’s not hard.”
Shen Xinglan said,
“Seeing her,
I feel,
Everything is worth it.”
The two smiled at each other,
Their eyes filled with love.
The little princess’s name,
Was Su Xingyue.
Su Xingyue,
Was the love of Su Bai and Shen Xinglan,
And also their hope.
Su Bai and Shen Xinglan’s home,
Because of Su Xingyue’s arrival,
Became even warmer and sweeter.
Every day when Su Bai returned home,
He would hold Su Xingyue,
And play with her.
Su Xingyue would babble at Su Bai,
Her little hands patting his face.
Su Bai’s heart,
Was filled with satisfaction.
Shen Xinglan looked at this scene,
Her heart feeling warm.
Her life,
Because of Su Bai and Su Xingyue,
Became even more perfect.
On her thirtieth birthday,
Su Bai threw a,
Grand birthday party for her.
At the party,
Su Bai knelt on one knee,
And said to her:
“Wife, I love you,
Marrying you,
Was the most correct decision I’ve made in this lifetime.”
Shen Xinglan’s tears,
Instantly flowed down.
“I love you too.”
The two embraced tightly,
And a wave of blessings erupted around them.
The love of Su Bai and Shen Xinglan,
Was so beautiful,
So moving.
Their story,
Was like a movie,
Filled with love and sweetness,
Deeply imprinted in,
Everyone’s hearts.
Their lives,
Were still continuing,
Their love,
Would also be forever sweet.
This is,
A story about love and happiness.
THE END
