Chapter 25 Familiarize Yourself with the Environment

After Zhuang Momo finished speaking, she held her son's hand and went upstairs, leaving only her elegant back.

Xu Liancheng watched her figure gradually disappear and did not react for a long time.

He wondered in his heart.

"Am I being disliked?"

Well, this was not the first time. After all, his ex-girlfriend Ouyang Qianqian had also disliked him.

But, this time.

Zhuang Momo's dislike had nothing to do with appearance or anything else as if she did not care about him at all.

"Tony, what has Madam been doing these days?"

With a gloomy face, he called the assistant who was responsible for Zhuang Momo's safety.

Tony, who was suddenly called out, was a little confused. There were records of Madam's whereabouts every day, and then he reported it on time.

However, since Xu Liancheng wanted to ask again, he quickly repeated it again.

"That's all?"

"Yes." Tony was even more stunned.

Xu Liancheng touched his hair in frustration and then sent a message to Bill, who was living in the villa outside.

An hour later, Xu Liancheng's eyes turned black when he got the answer. He even wanted to eat Zhuang Momo.

He thought to himself, "How could she..."

"How could she sell the tickets that he personally ordered?"

"And that was just to buy cat food and toys for that cat!"

Feeling that he was not as good as a cat, President Xu put down the contract angrily and went upstairs to settle accounts with Zhuang Momo with a murderous look.

However, just as he went up to the second floor, he was attracted by a strong aroma.

He wasn't someone who valued the desire to savor, but this fragrance made his stomach rumble non-stop.

Following the fragrance, he came to the kitchen on the second floor.

Well, it turned out that four people and a cat were eating happily at the table.

Zhuang Momo liked to cook. She, who was brainwashed by her cheap stepmother, had even specially picked up an amateur cooking class to learn several types of dishes.

Because her son was weak, she got up early this morning to stew the black chicken. Now the casserole was opened, and the room was filled with the fragrance of herbs and chicken mixed together.

When she took her son to Wetland Park in the afternoon, she also picked some wild vegetables and stir-fried them with lard and garlic. The green leaves of the vegetables were suffused with a faint layer of oil, which looked very pleasant.

Not to mention that she also made authentic Sichuan cuisine, such as spicy bullfrog, boiled pork slices... The table was full of colorful plates of food, and just looking at it made one's appetite surge.

"You..." Xu Liancheng was stuck.

"Eh? Didn't you go on a date?" Zhuang Momo looked at him doubtfully. Perhaps it was because of the chili, her lips were even redder than usual. With just the right curves, there was a small lip bead in the middle of her beautiful lips. When she pursed her lips, she would gently press the lip bead against her lower lip. It looked...

Her lips were very suitable for kissing.

For the first time, Xu Liancheng felt that his dropping-proof mask was quite useful. He stared at her quietly, trying to use his eyes to give her pressure.

In fact, he did give her quite a bit of pressure.

Zhuang Momo still had some fear toward her mysterious husband. There were too many legends about him in the capital.

But...

"Daddy, did you get stood up?"

"Hey, isn't this normal?"

"It's not the first time. You should have gotten used to it, right?"

Xu Bixi's words caused the entire room to fall into a strange silence. Xu Liancheng really wanted to refute, but he was speechless. In fact, he had indeed been stood up by someone countless times.

But it was different this time!

This time, it was a different female lead!

"Get me a pair of chopsticks." He looked at his son coldly and gave him a threatening look. Then, he sat down opposite Zhuang Momo.

Seeing him sit down, Zhuang Momo did not say anything. In any case, she had cooked a lot, so she didn’t mind him even a little bit.

However, she discovered that this person's appetite was actually not small.

However, when he brought her out to eat, he did not eat much.

"Those are not delicious." Xu Liancheng said.

"Your cooking is not bad, right?" He commented, thinking to himself, "I can't praise her. This woman is already arrogant. If I continue to praise her, I'm afraid she will be triumphant beyond belief."

Zhuang Momo glared at him and whispered, "So be it if you are picky about food, why are you still so stubborn?"

Xu Liancheng was speechless.

Looking at Master's slightly trembling hands, the old butler revealed a maternal smile, thinking to himself, "Sure enough, Madam is Master's true love. I finally sensed some of the vitality from young people in Master's body."

One had to know that the Master was only 28 right now, and he was still a short distance away from running into his thirties.

After eating and drinking, Zhuang Momo and her son went downstairs for a walk.

This was also a habit they had recently developed, especially in the manor on the outskirts where the air was fresh, and when the weather was good, they could still see the stars above their heads when they looked up.

Xu Liancheng originally wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Zhuang Momo, but heavy work was waiting for him. He had to go to the study to deal with it first. It was him who spent half a day doing styling to act cool, so he could only work overtime.

By the time he came out of the study, Zhuang Momo and the child had already fallen asleep.

He stood at the door, staring at the two little faces on the bed.

His son rested his head on his mother's arm, his body relaxed as he lay flat. This was a sign of extreme security.

Xu Liancheng estimated the width of the children's bed and looked down at himself.

After taking a shower, he tiptoed inside as well.

To suppress the guilt in his heart, he comforted himself, "This is my home, my bed, and my son. That's right, just like that."

His sudden touch like a big heater made Zhuang Momo subconsciously shiver, but soon, she instinctively wrapped herself around him.

Although it was already May now, the moisture of the night was still very heavy.

"Well, it was you who took the initiative."

Mr. Xu did not forget to say this in his heart. He then placed his hand on her waist, feeling disgusted as he touched her.

He thought to himself, "What is going on with this woman? She eats so much and she's still so thin. She isn't soft at all."

Gradually, he also fell asleep.

His hand began to slide upward uncontrollably, looking for the softest and most comfortable place...

...

"Ah!!!"

"Pervert!"

When she opened her eyes and saw a big hand on her chest, Zhuang Momo screamed out of control.

Hearing her shout, the maids outside immediately rushed in.

These maids were also specially trained, and it was easy for them to deal with normal strong men.

However, when they saw the "pervert" on Madam's bed, they did not dare to make a move.

Xu Liancheng, whose eardrums were nearly stabbed, glared at Zhuang Momo and waved at the onlookers.

"You, you, you... Why are you here?"

After they left, Zhuang Momo came back to her senses and tugged at her pajamas warily.

She thought to herself, "Fortunately, nothing was exposed."

"It was just a touch, just like being bitten by a large mosquito."

Seeing her actions, Xu Liancheng was both angry and amused. He grinned and said sarcastically, "Don't be so cocky. It's flat-chested anyway. Who likes to look at you?"

Zhuang Momo was speechless. She was very angry and really wanted to hit him, but she was unable to...

"This is my home. You are my wife." He said lightly, explaining why he had appeared here.

Without waiting for Zhuang Momo to react, he lifted the quilt and picked up the cat and his son.

"Alright, get up. You have to go out with me today."

"Where?"

"The grave." Looking at her fuming appearance, he could not help but want to scare her.

Sure enough, Zhuang Momo was so excited that she blurted out dialectical words.

"What..."

"Don't be noisy. I'm almost deaf. Are you going to make money to support our family?"

"I..."

Glancing at the watch that the man had placed on the bedside table, Zhuang Momo swallowed the words that had slipped out of her mouth with difficulty.

She only came back to her senses when she finished washing up.

She thought to herself, "That isn't right. Why should I have to support him? I can feed myself now!" Of course, Xu Liancheng had given her a secondary card, but Zhuang Momo didn't have the habit of spending men's money.

Because they would go to the cemetery, Zhuang Momo deliberately wore a plain black dress. Her waist-length hair was also tied up. Other than the jade pendant that had accompanied her for many years on her neck, there were no extra ornaments.

Seeing her dressed so plainly, Xu Liancheng felt that his heart had calmed down quite a bit.

...

Xu Liancheng rarely spoke.

Especially outside, along the way, he almost did not say a word.

On the other hand, Zhuang Momo had been talking to her son. Regardless of whether there was a response or not, whenever she saw something new, she would tell her son what it was.

This made Xu Bixi very excited and he was somewhat regretful that he did not bring out his cat, Pipi.

Xu Liancheng, who had been ignored by the two of them, only found some sense of existence when he got out of the car because Zhuang Momo grabbed his arm tightly.

After learning that Xu Liancheng was here to pay his respects to his deceased parents, the fear in her heart disappeared.

However, she never thought that the grave that Xu Liancheng mentioned was actually a real one.

He was such a rich and inhumane person, but he actually set his parents' graves in the wilderness. There was nothing but weeds and a lake around.

Just standing here made her feel like a cold breeze was blowing.

"You scared?"

With evil taste, Xu Liancheng narrowed his eyes and read fear on her face.

"Don't be afraid. Anyway, you have to live here longer in the future. Just treat it as familiarizing yourself with the environment in advance."

"Ah?" Zhuang Momo widened her eyes, thinking to herself, "What did he mean by this? He finally couldn't help but want to deal with me here?"

In the wilderness, with only his people surrounding him, it seemed to be suitable for doing bad things.

At first, she only felt that this place was very cold, but now, her legs were trembling.

"I..."

"What? You are my wife. If you don't bury yourself with me after you die, where are you going to bury yourself?"

"The laboratory where the explosion happened back then is right below here. That is why the land has been abandoned. Although the lake is beautiful, it is actually contaminated. There are many poisonous components in it. Therefore, no one lives within a radius of several miles. However, it is suitable for eternal rest."

His voice was very soft and even carried a hint of ridicule.

However, Zhuang Momo could still hear a few different emotions from it.

Anger, pain, and some deeply hidden nostalgia.

Looking at his tall and straight figure, Zhuang Momo's heart trembled slightly. She habitually walked forward and hold his hand.

"Don't be sad. You still have us."

"Eternal rest... Let's talk about it in the future."

For some reason, the scene became a bit more joyous.
