The divorced Su Hang body swapped to the married Su Hang (1)

Like every morning, Su Hang woke up before Shen Xi. He quietly looked towards the long dark hair next to his pillow and quietly sat up to peer into Shen Xi's sleeping face.

This was part of his usual routine, as this was the only time he could properly look at his wife. But now, Su Hang lingered, saddened by the fact that he would no longer have this opportunity after today.

However, no matter how unwilling he was to leave, Su Hang had to get up. He cleaned up, went into the closet to change clothes, then went downstairs to have breakfast with Shen Xi. As he walked towards the living room, he glanced towards his study. The sudden reminder of the divorce agreement he had taken home yeaterday made his heart ache.

Then, Mrs. Zhang came out of the kitchen. She saw Su Hang dressed in some simple household clothes instead of the usual sportswear, so she couldn't help but ask: "Sir, you're not going on your morning run today?" 

Su Hang was a little surprised at the question, but nevertheless, he shook his head and replied: "I'm not."

Thinking about his looming divorce, Su Hang wondered how Shen Xi would react when he told her. She would be surprised, for sure, but would she be pleased too?

"Well..." Somewhat embarrassed, Mrs. Zhang told him: "Yesterday, the Madam mentioned that she would like to eat dumplings for breakfast. I'm currently wrapping the dumplings, but we've run out of vinegar. Since you usually go out for runs in the morning, I was going to ask if you could buy a bottle of vinegar on your way back."

"The Madam wanted to eat dumplings?" Su Hang immediately zeroed into the main point.

"Yes, the Madam messaged me last night and asked me to buy some dumplings to cook for breakfast today. But how could I buy food from the outside, ah? Who knows if it's sanitary and properly made. I decided to come in early and make them myself, buy there's no more vinegar." Mrs. Zhang hesitated for a moment, then said: "I'll buy it, but breakfast is likely to be a little later than usual."

"I'll go." Su Hang stopped Mrs. Zhang, who was about to untie her apron. "You continue to make the dumplings; I'll buy it."

"You'll buy it? Then I'll take this chance to wrap more dumplings. There's a lot of people to make for, after all." Mrs. Zhang inwardly counted as she walked back into the kitchen. The two little masters also liked to eat dumplings. She'll make more dumplings to store in the fridge so that the children could later eat them if they were craving it.

Su Hang put on a loose white sweater, which dampened the man's cold temperament. He looked trough the living room window towards the black car in the yard, then decided to pocket his car keys. This may be the last time he would be able to do something for Shen Xi, so let it take longer.
