Let's Get Married novel Chapter 357

The car enters the main road, and the man takes the initiative to ask, “Where is the supermarket? Show me the way.”

Lily doesn’t want to interact too much with him as she replies, “Check the navigation system…”

“Are you sure you want to talk to me like that?” Although his tone is normal, he sounds a little bit upset nonetheless.

She subconsciously looks at Adair through the rear-view mirror, but luckily he does not seem to hear them. She grits her teeth hard, knowing that he is purposely torturing her, albeit verbally. She suddenly feels a surging rage as she says coldly, “Continue forward, turn left at the next intersection!”

“…”

“Turn right at the next intersection, and follow the left lane.”

“…”

“Continue straight, make a turn in front later.”

Lily is giving directions quite professionally, and Rex doesn’t really reply her too. He is only concerned about Adair as he keeps asking him whether he’s cold or not, whether it’s better to close the window. Lily is turning a blind eye on his words.

Lily must be thinking that there’s something wrong with her, that’s why she is feeling angry.

What is she angry about?

She doesn’t expect Rex to be good towards her; she still recalls that he is shunning her when they met just now.

When she is lost in her thoughts, the car is already parked in one of the parking lot spaces. Rex makes sure the car is stopped fully, and then he alights from it. He heads to the back of the car and pulls open the back door while stretching his hand towards the little kid.

Adair has unbuckled his seat belts as he steals a glimpse at the man’s massive shoulders. He is only undecided for one second before accepting his help.

When Lily steps out of the car, she sees that Rex is bending low to put the child down on the ground. The night breeze is caressing the man’s hair, and the young and tender voice can be heard clearly.

“Uncle, are you going to the supermarket with us?”

Rex is full of scheming intentions, unlike his usual cold and stony self, he is actually asking hypocritically, “I am willing to do that, but I’m not sure whether your mum is happy with that.”

And this throws Lily into the position to decide things again.

While she is still mulling over how to navigate this situation for Adair, the little kid is already one step in front of her as he says enthusiastically, “Mum, uncle has sent us here from so far away, can we shop together? Uncle is your friend too, right?”

Adair is one of those kids who are clever yet naïve.

Rex is trying to hide his delight as he raises his fist beside his mouth and coughs for a while. He is trying not to let laughter escape his throat.

Lily’s silence just now already admitted that Rex is indeed her friend, and now she is literally being put on the stove to roast. No matter what she says, there is no way for her to refuse her son’s request.

It’s just that…

Are they really going to visit the supermarket together?

This idea never crosses her mind.

As she is still in a dilemma, Rex turns around and looks at the night sky, “Let’s just go together, it will be late after you guys are done with shopping. I can send you back home.”

Adair claps happily as he hears this, “That’s good, thank you uncle.”

“…” Lily’s heart is in a wrench, they are really ignoring her now.

The next second, Rex solidifies what she is thinking. The man takes wide strides towards the side of the supermarket entrance and pushes along a trolley. He says, “Let’s go.”

In the end, with no room for discussion, the three of them enters the supermarket.

Lily first goes to the fruits area, and she chooses some fresh blueberry, mandarin oranges and avocados. Rex follows her from behind silently and he casually picks up some kiwi fruit and places it into the trolley. Immediately after he did that, Lily picks it out of the trolley.

The man squeezes his brows while Lily says without looking at him, “Adair is allergic towards kiwi.”
