Rita put her arms around his neck and blinked to him. "What are you looking at? Am I so beautiful?"
Aaron touched her waist with his big hand and said with a snicker, "What do you say? You left me alone at home for a whole day and came back so late. How should I punish you later? Huh?"
Rita felt itchy all over her body because of his hand touching, so she quickly stepped back and dodged. "All right, all right. I'll stay at home with you tomorrow, for a whole day, okay? Are you hungry? I'll cook for you."
He stopped her and shook his head. "No, I'm not hungry."
"I bought some fruits and I'll make you a fruit salad. How about that for amends to you?"
Aaron bite slightly on Rita's ear and whispered, "I don't want to eat anything now. I just want to eat you."
Rita moved in his arms and said, "Let go of me quickly. I'll cook something delicious for you."
"No."
When they entered the bedroom, Rita knew it would go like this. She pinched his face and said, "You are really annoying. Don't you really want to eat fruit?"
He buried his face in her chest and murmured, "Let me hold you for a while. Let's watch a movie tonight."
"Okay, my waist is almost crushed by you. Get up quickly."
Aaron reluctantly got up from her body and went out to wash the fruit.
Rita changed into pajamas and cut the fruit Aaron just washed cleanly into pieces. Then she took out two bags of yogurt from the fridge and made a fruit salad.
"Honey, I got a call from home today."
Rita paused for a moment and asked, "Is that your mother?"
Aaron answered, "She said she wanted to see me tomorrow, but I refused."
"Didn't she say why she wanted to see you?"
After a moment's silence, he said, "I think it's better for her to stop thinking about something for us."
Selena still couldn't let go of the past. Rita also knew that Selena hated her very much. She felt that she didn't deserve Aaron no matter in the aspect of her family or in other aspects.
"Don't think too much. Let's eat fruits."
Rita and Aaron watched the movie while eating fruits. They didn't go back to their room until it was very late.
Since he refused to meet Selena, Selena had been trying to contact him all the time. Today, she finally got the chance to meet her son when she attended the company's annual beer festival. The Leng family was the host of the beer festival, so Aaron and Rita couldn't refuse to take part in it no matter what reason they have.
"It's nothing serious. You just stay with me later. If I'm not with you, I'll arrange someone to protect you."
He was afraid that someone would take advantage of this to attack Rita, so he had arranged people to protect her secretly.
"I'm fine. Nina is here with me."
Rita didn't worry about anything else, but Aaron's mother. It seemed that she was always calling Aaron recently.
"My mother is in poor health. She wouldn't have had the time to care about us if others hadn't gossiped about it all the time."
Speaking of this, Aaron began to suspect that maybe it was Nora. This woman had never learnt the lesson and never behaved well.
"Well, I know. Let's get ready to go."
Half an hour later, they finally arrived at the banquet hall.
As soon as they entered, Rita saw many familiar faces. She just smiled lightly at those people whether she liked or hated.
"Riri, come here."
