Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love-Chapter 419 Dreamland
That night, in his study, Xie Xiao received a message from Qi Yan, "Thanks, bro. Your trick really works wonders, it was an enjoyable evening."
Xie Xiao: ... Yeah, brother, we really have a heart-to-heart connection, but then why did you teach my son all that nonsense?
Xie Xiao sent a smiling emoji.
Glancing at the time, it was almost eleven o’clock.
He shut down his computer, finished the water in his glass, and decided to go back and cuddle his wife to sleep.
Little Tuan Zi was already over three years old and sleeping in his own room.
In some ways, his son really was quite easy to look after.
When Xie Xiao entered the bedroom, he saw Luo Yanran applying a face mask.
She leaned against the headboard, holding a book and reading intently, while the room was carpeted so there was no sound when Xie Xiao came in.
It wasn’t until Xie Xiao reached the bedside that she realized he was there, looked up at him, and since she couldn’t move her face because of the mask, only her eyes smiled, "All done with work?"
Xie Xiao looked at her face seriously, then carefully kissed her exposed lips.
Despite being careful, he still touched the face mask and was a bit helpless, "Busy day’s over, darling. I find that no matter the age, you girls love to use face masks."
He had seen Doctor Yang before, who, despite finishing work late at night, insisted on doing her skincare routine.
In their pursuit of beauty, women’s tenacity could be frightening.
Just when the time was up, Luo Yanran peeled the face mask off her face, saw him wiping off the essence that had rubbed onto his face, and leaned in to rub against him with a laugh, "Come on, let’s make our Mr. Xie exquisite too~"
After rubbing against him, she ran away.
Xie Xiao clicked his tongue and followed her into the bathroom.
There was nowhere to run—it was just a little flirtation between the young couple.
When he followed her in, Luo Yanran was washing her face.
He went over, wrapped his arms around her waist, and Luo Yanran, ticklish, couldn’t help but shrink away and laughed, "Sorry, Mr. Xie, shall I wash your face for you?"
Mr. Xie hummed twice, "Is that all?"
Luo Yanran turned in his arms, reached out, and touched his still damp cheek, "What else would you like then?"
"That will depend on the sincerity of Lawyer Luo," Xie Xiao hinted as he glanced at her rosy lips.
Luo Yanran smartly leaned in for a kiss before trying to run away, but was held back.
By the time she escaped the bathroom on wobbly legs, it was she who had washed Mr. Xie’s face.
When she came out, the person on the bed was wrapped up tightly in the blanket.
Only a pair of big eyes stared straight at Xie Xiao.
Xie Xiao laughed, "What’s the matter? Are you afraid I’ll do something?"
"I am scared," Luo Yanran declared confidently.
Xie Xiao couldn’t help but laugh, "Would this blanket be of any use if I did want to do something?"
"Probably not, I’m just making a symbolic gesture," Lawyer Luo said with a righteous face.
Mr. Xie pounced on her directly.
The couple playfully frolicked on the bed without actually doing much.
Luo Yanran must have been tired that day, she still had to go to work tomorrow.
Xie Xiao was still considerate in the end.
After their playful tussle, he held her and coaxed her for a while.
Luo Yanran really was tired and ended up falling asleep in Xie Xiao’s arms.
Xie Xiao kissed her, then closed his eyes as well.
He quickly fell asleep.
But perhaps it was because of the hypothetical scenario Luo Yanran had mentioned,
Xie Xiao dreamt, and in his dream was a familiar place.
A person both strange and familiar to him.
It was Zhou Mianmian, but the Zhou Mianmian from... a long time ago.
She was linked arm in arm with Xie Xiao, standing at the bustling entrance of their high school.
A banner hung above, "XXX High School 150th Anniversary."

In front was a bustling crowd.
Xie Xiao’s eyes held a hint of bewilderment, yet he still reflexively withdrew his hand.
Looking somewhat over twenty, Zhou Mianmian frowned at him, "What are you getting moody about? What’s wrong? Did an old classmate say something that upset you just now?"
Her voice was full of impatience, "After all, it was you who chased after me to come here. I didn’t force you."
Xie Xiao furrowed his brows, "What are you talking about?"
"What am I talking about? Isn’t it just because Lin Yu scolded you a bit, and now you’re putting up this face for who to see? He’s not even that great, why should he look down on you, an accountant, when he’s just a computer repairman?" Zhou Mianmian’s voice was laced with anger.
Xie Xiao felt a chill run through his body. Accountant?
He was an accountant?
He looked around and, with trembling hands, took out his phone, but the device in his hand wasn’t the one he was familiar with.
After unlocking it, the top contact indeed listed ’wife’.
He sighed in relief, dialed the number...
...but Zhou Mianmian’s phone began to ring.
She took it out and glanced at the display, "What are you doing? I’m standing right here, why are you calling me?"
Zhou Mianmian? No, this wasn’t right.
Xie Xiao took a few steps back and, without a word, turned and walked away.
Zhou Mianmian stood still and sighed, "Xie Xiao!"
But Xie Xiao didn’t turn back.
Impossible, his wife was Luo Yanran, what was this with Zhou Mianmian?
However, Xie Xiao’s eyes lit up when he saw the person across the street.
A beautiful, delicate woman was getting out of the BMW on the opposite side. Continue your journey with novelbuddy
But soon the driver’s side door also opened, and a tall man stepped out.
The two stood together, whispering quietly to each other.
Xie Xiao overheard someone nearby whisper, "Wow, is that the outstanding alumnus Luo Yanran? CEO Luo? She’s so impressive."
"She is so pretty. Who is the guy with her?"
"Seems like they were from the same class, definitely another outstanding alumnus, right?"
"They make a good match."
Xie Xiao’s body went cold, his heart sinking uncontrollably.
It wasn’t like this, his Ranran was a lawyer...
Xie Xiao’s head started to ache.
The couple from across the street was now walking side by side towards them.
Zhou Mianmian chased after him, "Xie Xiao, why are you running off?"
The person crossing the street seemed to have heard her, looked up sharply, and stared in their direction.
When he saw Xie Xiao, his eyes appeared to brighten.
But then, seeing Zhou Mianmian stretching out her hand to grab him, the light in his eyes faded, replaced by an expressionless face.
Xie Xiao abruptly pulled away from Zhou Mianmian.
Zhou Mianmian followed his gaze and upon seeing Luo Yanran, her eyes turned cold.
She scoffed, "Pretty, right? Our former schoolmate, she used to like you, did you know that?"
Xie Xiao murmured softly, "I know..."
"Knowing won’t change anything, back then you only had eyes for me, and now, it’s even more impossible between you two. Look at where she’s at now? What about you?"
But before Zhou Mianmian could finish speaking, she saw Luo Yanran say something to the person by her side and start walking their way.
Xie Xiao’s eyes brightened as he watched Luo Yanran come closer.
Zhou Mianmian held onto Xie Xiao’s hand tightly.
Xie Xiao once again shook off her hand.
Luo Yanran approached, looked at the man in front of her, and pursed her lips to call out, "President Xie?"
Xie Xiao’s eyes suddenly sparkled.
