Xia Fangruo was young and beautiful, gentle as water by nature, and there was the additional bond of a child between them. Naturally, Zhou Ming once again got involved with Xia Fangruo, developing the same kind of relationship as before.
But in the eyes of others in Xia Fangruo's community, they were just an ordinary couple.
Sometimes, neighbors would see Zhou Ming and Xia Fangruo leaving together and tease them, saying how great their relationship was.
Zhou Ming, whenever he heard this, would look a bit uneasy.
Xia Fangruo, however, always covered it with a smile, never mentioning their relationship, nor showcasing their affection in public, always very discreet, which made Zhou Ming feel even guiltier.
Thus, Zhou Ming divided some of his attention toward Xia Fangruo.
Zhao Xiuyu had always been a full-time housewife, with her schedule packed with various gatherings with friends, shopping, and traveling. She was very confident about her relationship with Zhou Ming.
