They had a good night's sleep.
When the morning sunlight shone through the thin curtains and onto the black sheets, it was suffused with a trace of warmth.
The black down blanket on the bed was wrapped up, and the person in the quilt turned over on the bed. Then, with a "thud", the person fell to the ground along with the quilt.
A hand stretched out from under the quilt, pulled a few times, and finally freed her head.
Su Mo looked around with blank face, then climbed up with the quilt and continued to sleep. She did not find anything wrong!
At the door of the bathroom, the person who was attracted by the sound was leaning against the wall, watching her series of actions, and then waiting for her to slowly open her eyes.
Su Mo took a short nap for a while. She had just closed her eyes when she suddenly sat up. Her little head looked left and right at a high frequency. "That's not right! I remember I was sleeping in the guest room last night!"
She was clearly the one sleeping in the guest room, but when she woke up, she found herself lying on the big bed in the master bedroom. There was no one other than Young Master Xiao who could do this.
Su Mo finally found Xiao Nanye. Thinking of the displeasure last night, she looked at him with tears in her eyes. "Xiao Nanye, you sent me back, didn't you?"
The corner of his mouth that had just been opened was stopped by Su Mo's jumping thinking before it could even curve up.
Xiao Nanye thought to himself, "This woman is really slow at times!"
"She didn't reflect herself since she made a mistake, but she dared to cast me that look. Didn't anyone tell her that the man who just woke up in the morning was the most vulnerable to temptation?"
Xiao Nanye's eyes flashed. When he walked over, he asked with concern, "Are you hungry?"
He still remembered that she had not eaten last night. Su Mo was moved and nodded vigorously. "Yes."
Xiao Nanye frowned and asked her hesitantly, "I asked someone to bring food over, but we might have to wait for a while."
"Ah?" Su Mo looked at him in confusion. "Why do we have to wait for a while?"
"Because…"
At some point in time, Young Master Xiao had already taken off his nightgown. He lifted the quilt and entered, his hands skillfully removing her pajamas.
"I'm hungry too..." Xiao Nanye finally finished speaking.
Ever since Su Mo came to Xiao Manor, Xiao Family's rules had become more and more out of place.
Not only did they not eat breakfast, but they even saved their lunch.
After Su Mo fell asleep, Xiao Nanye called the kitchen and asked someone to deliver the food. Su Mo had not eaten since yesterday. She was so tired that she had fallen asleep.
She was obviously exhausted, but she refused to sleep today. After eating, she hugged Xiao Nanye and asked, "Xiao Nanye, can you let me meet Meng Xiaoyun?"
"No." The person who had just finished eating and drinking didn't give her any face at all. He just looked at her coldly. "Su Mo, you had best know what’s good for you."
Su Mo thought to herself, "Is what you promised me just now a lie?"
"Xiao Nanye, you pervert! You liar!"
If she had known earlier, she would not have taken the initiative to cooperate with him. Su Mo lowered her head in frustration and hid under the quilt to draw circles and curse him.
Su Mo was not a person who would give up easily. After being in the quilt for a while, she quietly lifted the corner of the quilt. "Well, my grandfather told me once that one should be tolerant."
Xiao Nanye didn't even bother to look at her. In fact, it was already great mercy that he didn't throw that woman into the ocean.
The strategy of retreat for progress failed. Su Mo began to try the method of provoking. She moved around with the quilt. She moved a little further away before saying, "Think about it! If you get bitten by a dog, you can't bite it back, right?"
"You said I was a dog?"
Young Master Xiao turned his head with a whoosh. His sharp eyes were extremely lethal. Su Mo was so scared that she quickly covered her head with the quilt. "Don't hit me."
Su Mo seemed to guess that it was useless to beg for mercy, so she decided to go all out.
As soon as the quilt on her head was lifted, she pounced on him and hugged him, saying sweetly, "Good brother, oppa, oppa, I was wrong, okay?"
"Who is oppa?" Xiao Nanye's brows which were unfolded just now were furrowed again and he looked at her with a sneer.
"No, no, no." Su Mo hurriedly waved her hand to save the situation. "In my heart, you are the most handsome. A long-legged oppa and whatnot can't even compare to a finger of yours. What I said is true."
Afraid that he wouldn't believe it, she even kissed him on the face. "Look! You are in your thirties this year, and you still look so handsome. This is called the legendary reverse growth!"
She dared to mention his age, and Xiao Nanye's handsome face sank. He closed the laptop on his leg and placed it on the bedside table. He turned around and looked at Su Mo.
"It seems that I was too lenient on you this morning!"
Young Master Xiao slowly unbuttoned his shirt and smiled at the person who did not know what was about to happen. "Since you are so energetic, why don't you accompany me to do something beneficial to my health?"
The person who finally understood screamed and wanted to escape. After being caught, she cursed, "Xiao Nanye, you beast, let me go!"
"I'll let you know what a real beast is later," Young Master Xiao said with a cold smile.
Because of her conflict-provoking words, Su Mo was unable to get out of bed for the entire day. By the time Xiao Nanye left, she did not even have the strength to lift a finger, let alone think about Meng Xiaoyun.
By the time she woke up, it was already dark outside.
Xiao Nanye was not at home. He seemed to be very busy these days and always ran out.
Su Mo got up and changed her clothes. Just as she was about to go to the main courtyard to see the grandfather, she received a call from Lan Fengchen.
The busy man called to thank Su Mo on behalf of his good friend. "Fanwei said that his sister has been sent back. He asked me to thank you on his behalf."
"Are you saying that Meng Xiaoyun has already returned?" Su Mo thought she had heard wrong.
After hanging up the phone, she felt her gloomy mood for the whole day suddenly clear up. It turned out that Young Master Xiao was just stubborn and soft-hearted. He still cared about Su Mo very much.
She turned around and went back to call Xiao Nanye, wanting to hear him say this.
Xiao Nanye was very cold about this matter, and after saying a few words, he changed the subject, "Are you hungry? I asked the kitchen to leave some food for you. I'm here to pick you up."
"No need," Su Mo said as she walked to the entrance to change her shoes, "I'm here to look for you."
In the morning, Xiao Nanye's Second Uncle came back. At that time, Xiao Nanye and Su Mo were still rolling on the sheets in the white building. They only found out when they went out.
It was rare for Second Uncle to stay at home for a few days a year, so the matter of going to the company could only be canceled.
It was already past dinner time. After Su Mo arrived, she was led to the side hall by a servant and only came over after eating.
As for her behavior of sleeping for a day, Su Mo felt very embarrassed. When others were not paying attention, she secretly glared at Young Master Xiao.
If not for the fact that a certain beast couldn't eat its fill, she wouldn't be so embarrassed.
Xiao Zhendong had three sons. The one he doted on the most was the eldest son. He disliked the fourth son the most. He never paid much attention to the second son.
However, he did not expect that in the end, only this son would listen to him and choose this path.
Xiao Moqing had been generous and honest since he was a child. He did not fight for anything. Among Xiao Family's three sons, he was the easiest to be ignored.
If not for the fact that Xiao Nanye's father was disobedient back then and insisted on doing business, Xiao Moqing wouldn't have become the pride of his family today. However, the price was to separate from his wife and children.
However, now that he had returned, he no longer needed to go to such a faraway place.
Recently, a large number of personnel had been mobilized, and he was also among them. He received reliable news that the new certificate of appointment was coming down soon. He would be transferred to Haicheng City this time to serve as the mayor of H City.
This was also the reason why he had returned so late this time.
It took a few hours from H City to A City by plane. It would be much more convenient to go home in the future.
From a navy officer in a remote city, he had transformed into the mayor of a second-tier city. This was considered an official promotion, and this was good news.
Before Su Mo came, they were still talking about this matter. Seeing her come in, they spontaneously paused the topic of this man.
In front of the elders, Su Mo was very obedient and did not say a word. She just sat quietly next to Xiao Nanye, looking like a little wife with low eyebrows.
In Xiao Zhendong's opinion, having such a well-behaved girl willing to follow Xiao Nanye, no matter how he thought about it, Xiao Nanye was on the winning side.
Therefore, Xiao Zhendong was much more amiable to Su Mo, his granddaughter-in-law, than his disobedient grandson. He pointed at Xiao Moqing with a smile and said, "Little Su! This is your Second Uncle."
Now, Xiao Zhendong didn't even refer to Xiao Nanye's Second Uncle but Su Mo's Second Uncle.
Xiao Nanye glanced at the Old Master indifferently. Then, he heard the little girl beside him call out "Second Uncle" shyly.
This was also the first time Xiao Moqing had seen this niece of his. A rare smile appeared on his strict face.
"Just now, I was wondering what kind of girl the granddaughter-in-law that Dad praised so much would be. Now that I see her, she is exactly as Dad said. She is beautiful, smart, and educated. Ah Ye has good taste."
Su Mo had never been praised like this before. Her skin was thin, and her face immediately turned red. She secretly looked at Xiao Nanye and happened to bump into his ambiguously smiling expression.
That expression seemed to be saying, "How would they know? She is clearly a stupid and troublesome fellow!"
As a result, her face became even redder, half shy and half angry.
"Second Uncle, you flatter me. Actually, I am not as good as Grandpa said." Su Mo's face was red, but her words successfully made the men present smile.
The Fourth Master of Xiao Family was also smiling, but his smile looked awkward no matter how much one looked at it. "Second Brother is right. This is the woman that our Eldest Young Master Xiao has taken a fancy to. How can she be lacking?"
At the same time he spoke, almost everyone turned to look at him with an unknown expression. Only Su Mo was still in a daze, thinking that she had been praised again.
She smiled foolishly and said to the person beside her, "Xiao Nanye, your families are so nice!"
When she first came in and saw Xiao Moqing, she thought that he was very fierce. She did not expect him to be so kind and amiable. In addition, Xiao Mubai helped her out last time, and this time he spoke up for her. She felt they were really kind!
Xiao Nanye rolled his eyes at her, thinking to himself, "She couldn't tell if it was sarcasm or not. This woman is really hopeless."
