Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Chapter 361 A few moments later, Serenity said, “After listening to what you‘ve said about your colleague, I think he‘s better than
all the blind dates Jasmine had gone to. I‘ll ask her what she thinks tomorrow.
“It‘s late now, Mr. York. I‘m going back to my room to wash up and sleep.” Serenity was exhausted from shopping. Zachary got
up as well and said faintly, “Oh, good night.”
Serenity replied with a good night and went into her room. She could not be bothered to even put away the things she bought
from shopping and planned to leave them for tomorrow morning.
Seeing how she went straight into the room without any intention to stay, Zachary stood where he was and remained silent for a
long time.
After a while, he walked out to the balcony, sat down on the swing, quietly looking at the night sky and wondering how both of
them would go on in the future.
Zachary was used to sleeping late, so he sat at the balcony until past eleven o‘clock before returning to his territory.
The husband and wife lived in the same house, but they stayed separately. He did not enter her room, and neither would she
step into his territory. Once the doors of the two rooms were closed, it was as if they had nothing to do with each other.
It was Zachary himself who had caused this.
The night passed without another word. The next day, Serenity woke up at her usual time.
She habitually went to the balcony to tend to her flowers.
Then, she saw some tiny ants on the balcony. When she bent down to have a closer look and followed the ant trail, she traced it
back to them crawling out from several potted flowers.
She realized why there were so many ants in the area.
It was because the ants hatched from their eggs in the soil since she had not used any pesticide when she made a garden out of
the balcony
She usually watered the flowers without bending down, so she did not notice there were ants in the flower pots.

After watering the plants, she took her purse and went out to the market to buy groceries for a home–cooked lunch later in the
store. She also bought a few packs of ant repellent and sprinkled them in the flower pots.
In the future, Sue had to diligently kill insects and ants for her flowers, lest the pests go out of control.
Serenity was at the market for half an hour and came back with several bags of groceries.
When she went upstairs, she found a middle–aged woman standing in front of her house. The woman was pulling out her cell
phone, seemingly wanting to make a call. “Madam.”
Serenity walked over and called out to the woman, who was startled by her greeting. She smiled and asked the woman,”
Madam, may I ask who you‘re looking for?” Mrs. Lane blinked. ‘Is this the missus?
‘I was about to call Mr. Zachary and our conversation might give away his identity. Fortunately, she interrupted me by calling out
to
me.
‘Otherwise, if he picked up my call and she heard me addressing him as Mr. Zachary by habit like how it is back in the main
residence, it might raise suspicion to the ordinary man persona he painstakingly crafted, or it could have also been exposed by
me.‘ “Hello.”
Mrs. Lane smiled. “I’m Mrs. Lane, the nanny Mr. York hired. I‘m here to start work today as agreed. I came here according to the
address that Mr. York gave me. Are you Mrs. York?”
So it turned out to be Mrs. Lane.
Serenity took out her keys and opened the door, saying, “Mr. York told me about you. You can just call me Serenity, Mrs. Lane.
I‘m not too used to being called Mrs. York.” In reality, she still felt like she was the same free and unfettered Serenity Hunt. She
only remembered that she was married when she saw Zachary. “That’s... not really...” Mrs. Lane was hesitant to call the missus
by her name. When they spoke, she had already sized up Serenity. She saw that Serenity was carrying several bags of freshly
bought groceries in her hands, and felt that Serenity was someone down–to–earth, just like Old Mrs. York.
She was not arrogant or haughty like other rich ladies. Serenity invited Mrs. Lane into her home and said with a smile,” Since
you‘re coming to work with us, we have a professional relationship. You can just call me by my name. There‘s no need to call me
Missus.”

Hearing Serenity and Mrs. Lane‘s conversation, Zachary quickly put on his clothes and came out of the room. “Mr. York.”
