Although the air quality in Boss Huang's previous storage room was poor, it was extremely safe.

That's why Su Xiaonuan took a liking to them and arranged for the two beauties to stay there.

The three of them chatted and laughed as they walked through the shop, attracting countless stares.

Walking further into the shop leads to the kitchen, and down a long corridor, there's a storage room in the corner, which is the only flaw as it's quite close to the restroom.

An unpleasant odor wafted from the bathroom, and Su Xiaonuan covered her nose. "You two need to keep the bathroom cleaner in the future, otherwise, it's not good to always smell this when you're sleeping in there. I'll buy you a bottle of floral water to spray on it later."

"Sister Xiaonuan, it's alright, we're used to the smell." Zhong Ling didn't want her to spend money. "No need to spend money on floral water, we just need to keep the place clean normally. There are a lot of people coming and going now, so we'll clean the bathroom again when it's quiet at night, and the smell will definitely be gone by tomorrow."

"We need to buy some floral water and clean the house properly." Su Xiaonuan raised her hand and knocked on the door, finding it to be sturdy. "The door is fine, no need to replace it. However, you should still be careful when you sleep at night."

The storage room had no windows, and she was worried that the two girls wouldn't close the door when they slept. Since the two shops were connected, it would be troublesome if someone was hiding in some corner. So, she was thinking that she should find a way to renovate the storage room, add a window, and install a security window to let in some air.

"Thank you, Sister Xiaonuan. We will be careful."

The storage room used to be filled with all sorts of odds and ends, but Su Xiaonuan had the two girls clear them out and throw them away. She liked to declutter, and since the things that were piled up there were just dusty and had never been used anyway.

"Not bad, it looks like a boudoir now." Su Xiaonuan noticed two celebrity posters on the wall.

However, that bed and mattress look so familiar.

"Sister Xiao Nuan, the mattress Brother Xiao brought is so comfortable. It's the kind of mattress that's advertised on TV, what's it called again..." Xiao Hong couldn't remember for a moment.

“Warm Brand Mattress,” Zhong Ling added.

Su Xiaonuan was now certain that the bed and mattress had been moved from home, and there were scratches from the two children on the headboard. She turned and walked out.

"Sister Xiaonuan, is something wrong?" The two girls looked at each other, wondering what they had done to offend Su Xiaonuan.

"Oh, it's nothing." Su Xiaonuan, who had just lost her composure, turned around and said with a smile. "I suddenly have something to take care of. Your room is very tidy. If you're tired, you can rest for a while."

"We're not resting anymore. The straw mat you bought is still drying. We'll go to the kitchen to help in a bit."

"You two can skip helping in the kitchen and go serve the dishes. I'll have Xiao Cui mentor you two."

It's a waste to put two such pretty girls in the kitchen; they would be better suited to be greeters and serving dishes.

"Thank you, Sister Xiaonuan!"

Xiao Hong and Zhong Ling shook hands. They were very satisfied with Su Xiaonuan's arrangement. Going into the kitchen was a reluctant choice. At such a young age, who would want to stay in a kitchen full of grease and smoke every day?

However, since they were newcomers, they were self-aware enough to offer to help in the kitchen, even though they were actually reluctant to work there.

Su Xiaonuan's smiling face immediately fell when she saw Xiao Moran, and she pulled him out through the back door of the kitchen.

"Xiao Nuan, you're not thinking about 'that' again, are you?" Xiao Moran recalled the scene of kissing her outside yesterday, and his emotions suddenly surged, and all the blood in his body rushed to his head.

Although she had a poker face, Xiao Cui once said that women like to say the opposite of what they mean, so her expression now was the opposite. The poker face was for outsiders to see, but maybe she was thinking about the warm weather in the middle of the night.

"What...what?" She hadn't even realized what was going on yet, and was only focused on settling accounts with him about moving the mattress out of the house, so she pulled him along even faster.

"..." Xiao Moran opened his mouth but said nothing. He just gave her a meaningful look and thought to himself, "Just as I thought. Even with a straight face, he couldn't hide his eagerness."

It turns out, women understand women best!

Xiao Moran was glad he had consulted Xiao Cui; otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to see through a woman who said one thing but meant another.

Xiao Moran, who thought he had figured out women's hearts, was secretly pleased with himself when Su Xiaonuan punched him hard. "Xiao Moran, are you deliberately going against me? You know I only got a good night's sleep after getting that bed and mattress, and you actually took the bed and mattress away."

"You mean this?" Xiao Moran snapped out of his daze and looked at her with some disappointment.

It turns out he was overthinking it; they weren't trying to get him to relive yesterday's events at all.

"If we don't talk about this, what do you think we're talking about?" Su Xiaonuan pointed fiercely at his chest. "Hurry up and find someone to move them back. I'm not used to beds, so buy them a new bed and mattress."

"Honey, I've replaced the bed with a two-meter-wide one, and the mattress is bigger too. I guarantee it'll be much more comfortable than the one we moved out of," Xiao Moran hurriedly explained. "Now you and the kids can roll around in bed however you want."

His original intention was to squeeze into her bed and sleep with her, but now he doesn't dare to say it out loud even if he has that thought.

"I was just saying that, who told you to change it?" She wasn't as fierce as before, and her tone softened. "That was really unnecessary."

She heard it was a two-meter-wide bed, which suited her perfectly.

In her previous life, the bed she slept in was 1.8 meters wide. With two children, the 1.5-meter wide bed was indeed a bit cramped, and she couldn't even turn over freely. Now that she has a 2-meter wide bed, how could she not like it?

"My wife's words are law. If she says the bed is too small, it means we should get a new one."

"There's no one here, so don't call me 'wife'," Su Xiaonuan whispered as she leaned closer.

Xiao Moran's heart skipped a beat, and his body stiffened.

As she suddenly approached, feeling the warmth and scent emanating from her body, I couldn't help myself.

He longed to kiss her, but dared not.

Seeing that he didn't react, she warned him again in a low voice, "Did you hear me? There's no one here. You're not allowed to call me 'wife'."

The words "There's no one here" came out of her mouth again, and Xiao Moran was no longer calm. He thought she was implying something to him. This was probably a woman's skill in speaking. She didn't say what she was thinking.

Fortunately, I had consulted women before, and finally I can understand what women are thinking.

So, without further hesitation, he looked around, reached out his right hand to embrace her waist, and with his left hand he held her head, then lowered his head and kissed her still-chattering lips...

She stared wide-eyed, stunned for a moment.

After a moment, she finally came to her senses and pushed him away hard.

She raised her hand and slapped him across the face. "Xiao Moran, you're incredibly audacious! How dare you do this to me here? Do you want to die? I haven't even settled accounts with you for what happened yesterday, and you're pushing your luck even further today?"

Xiao Moran gasped, thinking to himself, "A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; you can never figure it out."

He looked at her without saying a word, then raised his hand to touch the spot where she had slapped him. The slap had been quite forceful; he guessed there were still five finger marks on his face.
