When she opened it, she realized that there were so many things inside.

Fortunately, the cabinet door was closed. Other than some moldy smell, there was no dust inside.

Bai Ran searched and found the root of the trouble.

It was a box of snowflakes.

At this moment, the box of snowflakes had already been bitten open by the rat. The edges were full of holes, and most of the snowflakes inside had been eaten.

“Your memory is too good. You’re throwing things away too casually,” Chen Chen said helplessly.

Bai Ran looked at the box of desserts and was stunned.

At that time, something had just happened at home, and her father had ended his own life.

Her father had always been very busy, and they rarely met. The memories he gave her were very vague.

Therefore, when she moved into this house with her mother, she was still insensible. She was still thinking about the person she had loved for more than ten years.

She had personally made a box of snowflakes and wanted to give it to Chen Chen excitedly. However, she only saw Chen Chen and Hu Wan together like glue.

Chen Chen had casually pushed away from the snowflakes box and dropped it to the ground.

Hu Wan had smiled and bent down to pick up the snowflakes. She patted the dust on them and rebuked, “Chen Chen, this is Ran Ran’s kind intentions.”

Chen Chen had not replied to her.

Bai Ran did not speak the entire time, only staring at Chen Chen’s expression.

Other than indifference, there was nothing else on his face.

Bai Ran had picked up the box of crispy snowflakes in her hand stiffly and left alone.

When she returned home, she had stuffed the snowflakes into the cabinet and cried.

That night, Bai Ran’s mother fainted and was diagnosed with uremia. Bai Ran only grew up overnight.

It was also at this moment that she realized that even her mother might leave her. She might very quickly become alone and lose everything.

Later on, there was a marriage contract in exchange for her mother’s survival. It was a deal that did not involve any feelings.

The box of crisp snowflakes had been forgotten here.

Now that they were about to get a divorce, this box filled with Bai Ran’s heart was dug out again. How ironic.

“What’s wrong?” Chen Chen saw Bai Ran’s abnormality and asked.

“I’m fine. I might have forgotten about this because I was too greedy for desserts in the past.” Her thoughts were pulled back to reality. Bai Ran let out a deep breath and smiled, trying hard to pretend that she was fine.

Obviously, Chen Chen did not remember this box of snowflakes at all.

Then there was no need for her to refresh his memory.

“Check if there’s anything else. Don’t miss anything,” Chen Chen said.

“Okay,” Bai Ran agreed. She squatted down again and wanted to pull up the box under the desk.

The box was very big and heavy. It was very difficult for her to pull it. When Chen Chen saw this, he suddenly couldn’t bear it and said, “Let me do it.”

With that, he pulled Bai Ran over and squatted down.

Bai Ran looked at Chen Chen’s back and could not help but widen her eyes.

Was he helping her? Was he really concerned about her?

A young master who had been pampered since he was young was helping her do physical labor?

At this moment, Bai Ran suddenly felt the warmth and harmony of an ordinary couple.

If they were not going to get a divorce, she would be so happy right now.

Chen Chen opened the box and checked it. It was filled with books, so he placed it back.

Then, he was about to open the other box on the right when a big rat darted out of the box.

“Ah!” Bai Ran screamed and hid behind Chen Chen.

“Hurry! Bring me what I brought up previously!” Chen Chen shouted.

When Bai Ran heard this, she quickly handed the bag beside her to Chen Chen.

Chen Chen poured it out and ordered, “Tear the mouse board apart!”

The two of them tore off a few pieces and placed them at the foot of the bed, at the table, and at the cabinet. However, the rat had already run away.

“Don’t be anxious. Find a pole or a broom for me,” Chen Chen said. “It was frightened by me earlier and ran out. Use these things to get it out and chase it around. It will easily panic and run around!”

“Pfft!” Bai Ran looked at Chen Chen’s serious expression and laughed out loud.

“What are you laughing at?” Chen Chen looked up. What was going on? She was so scared earlier, but now she was still smiling.

“I just feel that you’re a pampered young master. How do you know all this?” Bai Ran said with a smile.’

“That’s what you think. These things can be easily learned. When I was young, I saw Auntie Zhang and the others do this in Grandpa’s hometown,” Chen Chen said disdainfully.

Bai Ran went to the kitchen to find a broom. Chen Chen picked it up and swatted it around.

In the end, he did not disappoint. Not long after, the rat really ran out.

“Ah, there!” Bai Ran saw the rat at first glance.. She jumped up, afraid that the rat would run to her.
