Chapter 867 Let Me Feed You


    Evelyn adjusted her clothes and said nothing.


    Sheffield walked over to his desk and dug into the shopping bag sitting there. There was a pen inside.


    An expensive one, made of gold, encrusted with precious resin.


    He then kissed the brand-new pen and winked at Evelyn. "I love it! A gift from Evelyn! I''ll treasure it as


    long as I live. If the pen is lost, so am I."


    "Shut up!" sheughed. Evelyn was not in the mood for his jokes.


    Sheffield corrected himself immediately, "Seriously, it''s a great gift. Thanks. And if I lose it, you can buy


    me a new one."


    Evelyn didn''t want to talk to him anymore. She grabbed her purse and made her way to the door.


    Sheffield ran after her and stretched out his arms to block her way. "Baby, can you wait? I need to


    change."


    "No!" Evelyn refused but stopped.


    Sheffield giggled and said, "Come on! My belly thinks my throat''s been cut. I''m starving!" He ran to his


    wardrobe and opened it to take out his coat.


    Watching him hang up the clothes, Evelyn asked, "So how did the surgery go? You were in there for


    awhile."


    After hanging his coat in the crook of his arm, he closed the wardrobe and walked towards her. He put


    his arms around her waist and kissed her on the lips. "Thanks for asking, wife of mine. It went well."


    Hearing that, Evelyn was relieved. But at the same time, the gloom on her face returned. "I''m warning


    you..."


    "What?"


    "Quit calling me your wife." She rolled her eyes at him, pulled his hands off her waist, and turned


    around to leave.


    "Yes! Miss Huo! I will never call you ''wife'' again, I will call you ''honey'' instead!"


    She turned around suddenly and grabbed his ear tightly, leaving no time for his response. "You don''t


    listen too well, do you?"


    His ear grabbed by her, Sheffield cried in an exaggerated way. "Aah! It hurts! Uncle! Uncle! Let go,


    okay?"


    An exaggerated reaction, to be sure. But still, he put up such a fuss that Evelyn wondered if she was


    really pulling that hard. "Are you going to listen, then?"


    "Yes." She had tamed him, for awhile at least.


    Evelyn didn''t expect him to give in so quickly. Seeing him nod obediently, she wanted tough.


    Before going out, Evelyn reminded him, "You need to stay put for a couple minutes while I go out to the


    car."


    Puzzled, he asked, "Why?"


    Evelyn coughed and said, "I''ll get in the car, and then you cane out. I don''t want people talking


    about us." She knew it was unnecessary, but she hadn''t been mentally prepared to show up together


    with him and meet his colleagues.


    Sheffield clutched his heart. "Come on, baby, you''re breaking my heart."


    Evelyn knew it wasn''t fair to him, so she paused, stood on tiptoe, and gave him a kiss.


    Her lips lightly swept over his, but it was enough to fill his heart with joy.


    He immediately pulled Evelyn into his arms and pressed her against the door. "You can only convince


    me like this." After saying that, he kissed her on the lips, his own lips lingering and passionate.


    By the time Sheffield came out of the hospital, Evelyn was already in the car. Tayson was in the driver''s


    seat.


    They were supposed to meet at the supermarket near Sheffield''s apartmentplex. Then they would


    pick out the foods they wanted, and Sheffield would cook.


    Sheffield arrived first. It started raining right when he pulled in.


    After stopping Evelyn''s car, Tayson opened the trunk to grab an umbre. When he came back,


    Sheffield had already opened the door for Evelyn, umbre in hand.


    Evelyn looked at Tayson and was about to take the umbre, but Sheffield said, "It''s not raining heavily.


    This umbre is big enough for the two of us."


    Evelyn didn''t agree. "You kidding? Look at iting down out there. We need a second one." She took


    the umbre from Tayson and turned to the supermarket.


    After looking at his umbre and Evelyn''s receding figure, Sheffield gave the umbre to Tayson.


    "Here. Don''t say I never got you anything!" Then he jogged to keep up with the woman in front of him.


    Tayson had no choice but to hold the umbre.


    Evelyn was still walking when Sheffield came up behind her, giving her a backhug. He took her


    umbre.


    She nced at the man who was holding her tightly. "I thought we agreed on two. What happened to


    yours?"


    Afraid that she might get cold, he wrapped her in his coat. "It''s broken!"


    ''Broken? Wasn''t he holding it just now? Broken so soon?'' Evelyn turned to look at Tayson. But she


    could see nothing as Sheffield stood in her way. All she saw was his chest in a sky blue shirt.


    He also warned her yfully, "Watch out for the puddles."


    Evelyn was rendered speechless. There was no way his umbre was broken.


    When they arrived at the entrance of the supermarket, half of Sheffield''s body was sopping wet, while


    there wasn''t a single drop of rain on Evelyn.


    She brushed the water from his shoulders and rebuked in a soft voice, "I told you we needed two


    umbres. You''re all wet."


    Putting away the umbre, Sheffield pecked on her lips. "It''s no big deal. It doesn''t matter as long as


    you''re dry. It''s freezing out here. Let''s go inside."


    Evelyn entered the supermarket with him.


    After they left the supermarket, the two went directly to Sheffield''s apartment.


    They put away the food together. Then he held Evelyn by the table and said with a cunning smile,

    "Honey, I''ll cook you kung pao chicken if you kiss me on the cheek, and braised pork ribs with plums for


    a kiss on the lips."


    Evelyn pinched his face and said, "I''ll just go hungry, thanks."


    Then he took a plum from his pocket, looked at it and thought for a while before he said, "I have a plum


    right here! If you want to eat it by yourself, my price is a kiss. Otherwise, I''ll feed you, and help myself


    to some as well."


    Rolling her eyes, Evelyn said, "You want to take advantage of me, huh?"


    "Guilty as charged, Miss Huo. But... " Then he popped the plum into his mouth and said, "I just


    changed my mind. Let me feed you."


    Again, he kissed her and transferred the plum to Evelyn''s mouth.


    When Sheffield walked towards the kitchen, Evelyn said worriedly, "Maybe I should cook." He had been


    operating on a patient for a whole day. He was probably tired, and so she wanted to cook.


    "Can you cook?" asked Sheffield, raising his eyebrows.


    Evelyn was stumped. She couldn''t.


    Honestly speaking, she knew nothing about cooking and had never touched an oven or cooker or


    anything else. She always had someone else do it.


    Feeling her embarrassment, he smiled, "All right. There''re snacks on the living room table. Just grab


    some."


    On the table in the living room there were piles of little snack items. Many of them Evelyn had never


    seen before.


    In order to take care of her body, she used to turn down snacks. She even hadn''t eaten dried fruit.
