was flushed and rosy, making the freckles on his nose appear more prominent, yet somehow playful."Are you hot""Huh" Shen Yian felt a little guilty and stammered, "The kitchen is hot because of cooking...Shen Yian stared blankly at Song Lin.

"Don't you want some" Song Lin asked.

"Drink."

Shen Yian took a sip of the milk and suddenly paused. The milk was cold, which instantly eased the dryness in her mouth from that night’s sleep.

"There's still another cup here." Song Lin pointed to another paper cup in the shopping cart.

"Thank you."

Shen Yian couldn't help but clench his cup, controlling his emotions.

It's nothing much, this is at most Song Lin being more polite.

Although she wasn't entirely convinced, she was touched nonetheless. Most of their female colleagues tended to say that men were careless and inattentive, always forgetting things and not caring about people. It seemed like these traits had become stereotypical characteristics of men.

So when Gu Cheng ignored her feelings in the past, she also felt that all men were like that.

Now that she thinks about it, she feels everyone has been brainwashed. Actually, men can also be gentle and caring, even more meticulous than women.

"What do you want to buy"

Remembering the sound of Song Lin's voice, Shen Yian immediately came back to his senses and hurriedly put down his cup to pick out vegetables.

"Mr. Song, is there anything in particular you'd like to eat We've all been busy lately, so I might as well buy a little extra and put it in the fridge."

Song Lin looked up at Shen Yi'an, who was picking vegetables, and pursed his lips.

"Not picky."

"Okay, I'll buy some. If you see anything particularly bad, remind me."

After weighing everything, she checked the money on each bag one by one.

"It's a bit pricier than outside, but the dishes are quite good and it's convenient."

After the question-and-answer session, Shen Yian also relaxed and chatted more.

"Mr. Song, let's go see the meat section over there. I saw they have beef."

"Mr. Song, what's being sold over there You're so tall, could you take a look for me"

"Mr. Song, what are all those people doing over there"

"Mr. Song..."

Song Lin narrowed his eyes, he had confirmed that Shen Yian was a chatterbox in private.

Shen Yian noticed his expression and immediately pursed his lips.

"Sorry, I usually go shopping with my parents and tend to talk a lot."

"Hmm." Song Lin nodded.

Shen Yi'an had thought that the topic would end with him being labeled as a chatterbox, but unexpectedly, he heard Song Lin's voice again.

“There are too many people buying beef, let's go check out the other options first so we don't get squeezed.”

"That's where they sell desserts, it must be a new product launch."

"I'll buy a new dish soap later. Your detergent is making my hands itchy."

"...."

After finishing his words, Song Lin pushed the cart forward.

Shen Yian seemed to have been struck by lightning, standing there in place. It was clear that Song Lin wasn't fond of talking much, but every time she asked, he would give her the answer she deserved.

Though the voice is cold, it has never been superficial.

After regaining his composure, Shen Yian followed Song Lin's footsteps, genuinely perplexed. How could someone like him, who was both hardworking and handsome, with an understanding mother, still be single

Could it really be because Aunt Mo and his father divorced

So, he's actually quite pitiful too. His parents divorced, and besides the mutual harm from both sides of the family, the first one to get hurt was him.

Although she didn't know the whole story about Mo Auntie's divorce, it was clear from her unwillingness to talk about her ex-husband that the divorce hadn't been pleasant.

At this time, Shen Yian saw Song Lin looking at the beef in the freezer with a contemplative expression.

Could he possibly want a steak

Shen Yi'an immediately stepped forward, grabbed two steaks and put them in the shopping cart.

Mr. Song, how about having steak for lunch I haven't had it in a long time either.

"..."

Song Lin's eyes flickered and he nodded slightly.

"Then I'll go buy some salad dressing and make a vegetable and fruit salad." Shen Yian smiled.

"Hmm."

Song Lin continued to push the cart with a blank expression, but his thoughts were far away.

This brand of steak was the first thing he ate on his birthday after leaving Song's house with his mother.

I haven't seen this brand in a long time, I didn't expect to find it here.

So seeing the steak brought back a lot of memories for him.

Shen Yian saw that Song Lin's mood was a bit low. He worried that he had talked too much and bothered him, so he didn't say anything more and silently chose the dishes he needed.

When the two went to the cashier to pay, Shen Yian naturally opened his phone, but Song Lin paid first and then walked away with two large bags of things.

After receiving the receipt from the cashier, Shen Yian quickly caught up with Song Lin's footsteps.ul skin.Dressed in a silk embroidered qipao, her figure was graceful and alluring.
