He Is Warmer Than Time Chapter 60

Chapter 60: Kicking Over The Basin

Shi Lei sighed. What a sin. That fellow, Gu Jinghang, was such a heartless man. This girl is a nice catch! Sigh!

Wen Huihui forced a smile on her face as she said, “Since Team Leader Gu is heated now with anger, I’ll come over to cook him something, perhaps, in the next few days.”

It was a Friday. The Song family received some huge and sweet watermelons from their relatives in Haicheng, Huinan County.

Song Ran gazed at the big watermelons on the kitchen floor and arched her lips immediately.

Song Xuan clicked her tongue and said, “Are you thinking of your Team Leader Gu again?”

Song Ran was looking at the watermelons. “These watermelons are sweet. I want to send two of them to him.”

Song Xuan’s eyes dimmed. “They are so huge and heavy. How do you plan to deliver them?”

“Mother Wu has a small basket for grocery shopping, doesn’t she? I can use that.”

Song Xuan snorted. “It’s hard to keep a grown girl at home. Someone who does not think it is worthwhile to spare a thought for the family, but only thinks of her own boyfriend.”

Song Ran had already taken action by moving the watermelons into the small basket. Song Xuan could not bear to see her working up a sweat while moving the watermelons. “A watermelon is about 5 kg. It’s almost 10 kg for two. Can you do it?”

Song Ran wiped away the sweat on her forehead as she held the handle of the basket. “Of course. I can take a cab over.”

Song Xuan shook her head. “Is Team Leader Gu made out of gold such that you are thinking of him for everything?”

Song Ran had to flaunt. “My Team Leader Gu is full of integrity, kindness, determination, perseverance, patience, and helpfulness. He’s a bar of gold to me.”

Song Xuan rolled her eyes. “Fine. Get going. I don’t want to see your arrogant face.”

Song Ran wore a small straw hat, took a small handbag, and happily went out of the house.

Back at the entrance of the research institute, Wen Huihui spotted Shi Lei walking from the shady road intersection. She adjusted the strap of her messenger bag on her shoulder with an apologetic look on her face.

Shi Lei walked up to her, and Wen Huihui apologized to him. “Team Leader Shi, sorry to trouble you again for picking me up.”

Shi Lei was rather cool about it. “It’s okay. This is just a trivial matter to me. You don’t have to worry about it. Gu Jinghang went to his office already. Look at you…”

“I’m alright. I will just check if his room is messy and if there is any dirty laundry. Then I’ll go to the other building and cook some delicious dishes for him. Look, I’ve got all the ingredients ready. Team Leader Shi, please join him and have some.”

Shi Lei stroked his head. “That wouldn’t be nice. I’ll become the one who benefited from doing nothing, won’t I?”

Wen Huihui looked down and smiled. “It’s okay. I doubt one person can finish all the food that I bought. Oh, Team Leader Shi, take out your laundry too. I’ll wash it for you.”

It was in the afternoon when Shi Lei brought Wen Huihui to the doorstep of Gu Jinghang’s dormitory. He fished out the keys and opened the door. Wen Huihui felt uneasy as she asked, “What time will Team Leader Gu be back?”

“About six or seven.”

Wen Huihui nodded. “Okay, I’ll wash the clothes and tidy up the place for him. Before I leave, I’ll make him a few dishes. I’ll try to leave before he gets back to save you the trouble. You just need to tell him that you cooked those dishes.”

Shi Lei sighed to himself. He did not understand why Gu Jinghang did not like such a good girl who asked for nothing in return for all the things that she did.

He promised her with solemnness. “Don’t worry. I won’t say anything to him if that’s your wish.”

Wen Huihui drew her lips. She was allowing Gu Jinghang to extricate himself from an awkward position. After all, he probably could not accept her as she showered him with attention. She tried to keep it anonymous but in a way that he was still able to guess that she was the one taking care of him secretly.
