Chapter 160: A Charming Woman
After consideration, Baron finds it reasonable. Thus, without Troy's knowledge, he agrees. "By the way, Kevin and I have moved to a new place. Thank you for taking care of us...."
After all, they have been through thick and thin. No matter what, Sunny should be grateful to them for what has happened and what will happen. However, Baron doesn't buy it. "What are you talking about? Cut the crap."
...
Sunny comforts herself that Baron is not a sentimental man.
After making herself clear, Sunny walks out of the room. "This new house has not been furnished, so we have to go shopping."
Macie, who is sitting on the sofa sucking a popsicle, is the first to raise her hand when she hears this. "Mom, I want to go with you."
Kevin also raises his hand. "Me too."
Sunny carries a bag. "Then let's go!"
Sunny likes to go to the supermarket with her family. When she was young, she usually sat on her father's neck or in a cart, watching her mother pick groceries. Such a warm scene has become a part of Sunny's few beautiful memories.
"Kevin, do you like to go to the supermarket? If you don't, you can wait for us outside."
Kevin skillfully steers while flirting with Sunny. "I can't bear to leave you for a minute, not even a second."
After hearing this, Sunny gets goose bumps all over.
"Alright, I'm just joking. When I'm with you, I feel happy even if I'm in a daze."
Sunny nods, because she thinks alike.
"Me too. I'm happy to be with you so that I can't even feel the passage of time."
Macie, who is sitting in the back row, silently rubs her hands. "Mom, Dad, I'm still a child."
...
"Then what would you like to have for dinner, Macie?"
Macie pretends to think calmly for a while, and then she tells Sunny her answer, which she has come to long before. "I want mom to cook big lobsters."
Kevin adds, "If you want to have lobsters, how about dad taking you to a seafood restaurant?"
Macie shakes her head. "Dad, the food in the in the restaurant is not as delicious as what Mom cooks."
Kevin raises his eyebrows and looks at Sunny. "Sunny, you are a great cook. Have you considered opening a restaurant?"
Sunny pats him with a smile. "Children always make irresponsible remarks. With your wise, you should not take it seriously."
Hearing this, Macie earnestly explains, "I'm not a child."
Sunny turns around to argue with her. "Really? You said that you were a child just now."
...
Just as they are teasing each other, Kevin suddenly steps on the brakes.
"What's wrong?"
When Sunny turns to look ahead, she sees someone fall to the ground. Sunny is a little scared and pushes open the car door as Kevin does. "Macie, stay in the car."
The one who falls is a woman who looks very weak. Even if she wears light makeup, she looks charming.
"Miss, are you alright?"
Sunny asks. However, this woman's attention is on Kevin. Somehow, Sunny is jealous.
Considering the situation, Kevin generally understands. He simply puts his hand in his pocket and says, "Miss, are you okay?"
Only then does the woman regain her senses. She blushes and stands up. "I'm fine. I'm just a little scared."
Sunny coldly watches this scene in front of her. But she is astonished by the rose on the woman's chest.
'Is this woman the mysterious one I have seen before?'
No matter how beautiful this woman is, Sunny has no good impression of her after confirming that this woman is her rival in love.
"Are you sure that you are fine? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Flushing red, the woman waves her hand. "No need. You really didn't hit me. I was too careless."
Sunny nods. "Since that's the case, this is my number. If you need my help, you can call me."
Sunny prefers this woman to contact her rather than Kevin.
However, Kevin misunderstands. He has never seen Sunny so enthusiastic. Can it be that she....
He doesn't dare to keep guessing and tells himself that he is thinking too much.
Regardless of this small accident, the atmosphere has not been ruined. They watch the girl leave and get into the car together.
But Macie, who stays in the car, complains, "Mom, I don't like that woman."
Hearing this, Sunny is shocked. Does Macie know what she is thinking?
Then Sunny subconsciously glances at Kevin and asks, "Why don't you like her?"
Macie purses her lips. "Because she keeps looking at Dad."
...
The straightforward answer silences the car. Kevin feels wronged, explaining, "Honey, I don't know her."
Sunny bursts into laughter. She caresses Kevin's head, as if he were a dog. "I know, otherwise I would quarrel with you."
After that, the atmosphere in the carriage returns to normal. Kevin and Sunny talk, laugh, and tease Macie, as if nothing has happened just now.
The woman whom they watch leave suddenly puts on a long face after walking to the corner of the street. "Go and search all the information about Sunny."
Sunny does not know what will happen to her. Hand in hand with Kevin, she happily shops in the supermarket while keeping Macie on a lead. "We need everything, such as pots, spoons...."
Kevin looks at wares in front of him in confusion. In his opinion, these things look the same. He doesn't know how Sunny distinguishes them. "Listen to me and take everything I ask you to. As for how to use them, you'll know when you get back."
Kevin has to put all the things that Sunny points at into the shopping cart with a sigh.
Later, Sunny pushes the cart to the fresh produce area. "Darling, Macie wants to eat lobster. What do you want for dinner?"
Kevin shakes his head. "I'll just compete with Macie for the lobster. I don't want anything else."
Sunny notices that Kevin says so, but his eyes are fixed on a swimming fish. Thus, she takes a bag and catches the fish from the tank with her bare hands.
"So scary!"
Kevin trembles in fear. "Honey, you are tough."
'You scare me.'
However, Sunny does not care. "This is just a piece of cake. In the past, we went directly to the sea barefoot. The ice-cold sea water feels much more exciting than the water in the tank." Kevin strokes his chest and shrinks back. "You are the best."
'I'll leave it to you.'
After buying what is needed for the dinner, Sunny leads the other two to the checkout.
"I'll show you what a good chef I'm!"
Sunny excitedly waves her hand. Looking at so many people lining up in front of her, Sunny has an illusion that she is an emperor.
So, she turns to look at Kevin and says, "Look, this is my kingdom."
Kevin smiles and nods, "Your Majesty, as your wife, I'm flattered."
When Sunny hears this, she frowns, "You should act as a general!"
Kevin knits his brows. "Then your mom and I both act men."
Sunny shakes her finger. "No, I am a woman. I am Empress Wu Zetian."
Laughter comes from somewhere. It is obvious that someone is mocking Sunny. "Who is it?"
Sunny looks around and does not see anyone mocking her or looking at her.
Thus, she looks down, catching her own daughter laughing at her.
"Macie, are you laughing at me? Do you understand what we're talking?"
Macie bites her fingers and returns, "Mom, I know who Wu Zetian is. I often see her in TV dramas."
Sunny becomes interested. She asks Macie excitedly. "Then do you think Mom acted well just now?" Macie shakes her head.
Sunny is puzzled. "Why?"
Macie hesitates to answer. Kevin encourages her. "Just tell your mom your thoughts. She won't blame you."
Only then does Macie muster her courage and holds her head high. "Because Wu Zetian is prettier than Mom."
...
Hearing this, Sunny stops smiling. Even Kevin is stroking his forehead. "Macie, father can't help you this time."
Macie feels wronged. "I told you I didn't want to say it. But you kept asking."
Sunny clears her throat. "It's fine. Mother is just shocked. You are so smart."
Macie looks up with hesitation. "Really?"
"Of course not! I won't cook lobsters for you. You will have fish today."
Macie immediately becomes depressed. 'Mom, you are a bad person.'
Seeing this, Kevin hurriedly eases the situation. "Macie is just a child. She has no taste. I think you are more beautiful than Wu Zetian. I mean it."
Sunny curls her lips. "Alright, alright, forget it. I'm just joking with you guys."
Then she laughs out loud. "How is it? Am I a good actor?"
At the sight of her smile, Macie and Kevin take a step back at the same time.
