Seeing Xia Lian enter the bedroom, Su Juan poured a cup of hot tea into a teacup and pushed it towards Wen Yiquan.

Wen Yiquan didn't hesitate either. He took a small sip of tea, smacked his lips, and frowned slightly. "This tea doesn't taste very good."

"So drinking alcohol makes it taste better, huh?" Su Juan squinted her eyes unhappily.

Seeing that his wife was angry, Wen Yiquan quickly shook his head with an embarrassed smile, "No, no, it's just that I don't like this stuff."

He does love drinking, but since a while ago it was discovered that there seems to be a problem with his liver, Su Juan has almost completely eliminated alcohol from the house, and she rarely adds alcohol to her cooking.

"Our family motto is to use tea instead of wine," Su Juan declared loudly.

"That's all about the dinner table. Who drinks tea instead of alcohol at home?" Wen Yiquan took another sip of tea. The dry, bitter taste wasn't very pleasant, and he couldn't taste any aroma.

Looking at the bags of dried tea leaves on the coffee table, it would cost at least several hundred yuan for such a small amount. Su Juan had insisted that he buy them, saying that he could drink a little tea whenever he felt like it, but he absolutely could not touch alcohol.

Su Juan is a woman with a childlike heart, but most of the time she also has an adult side. When Wen Yiquan goes to the company, she is responsible for managing the household in an orderly manner, including ensuring that each family member has a regular physical examination.

"Don't you want your liver anymore?"

"...Do you have any tea leaves with a hint of alcohol? If so, I'll buy two pounds later." Wen Yiquan spat out two tea leaves, finding the dry taste unpalatable.

"Why don't you just drink yourself to death? The tea leaves even smell like alcohol." Su Juan rolled her eyes.

Seeing that there was no movement from the bedroom, the two of them started chatting about the two little ones in the living room.

"Putting aside the tea issue, how did you know they would sleep together?" Su Juan poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip and immediately tasted bitterness, shivering all over. "I think I'll just drink milk..."

"How did I know? That kid told me himself." After Wen Yiquan answered, he recalled the last time he visited the two kids' home, and Wen Mo basically confessed everything.

For example, they might sleep together.

Of course, it's just that they sleep together; that's what the kid himself said, but whether it's true or not is still unknown.

I went to bed early last night, but when I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, I heard a little noise coming from the living room before I even opened the door.

I opened the door a crack and saw Wenmo lurking like a thief at the guest room door, glancing nervously around before quickly opening the door and going in when no one was watching.

Well, you're lovesick, aren't you?

Playing night raids in the middle of the night, if Lianbao has any objections, you'd better expect to get a belt combo.

Su Juan felt a little strange, "He only told you? Why didn't he tell me?"

"He's afraid you'll scold him."

"When have I ever sworn at anyone? Really."

"Pfft..." Wen Yiquan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Su Juan glared at him with a cold smile, "Looking for a scolding, huh?"

"No, please continue, I'm listening."

There was no sound coming from Wen Mo's bedroom at this moment; they were probably discussing something inside.

Su Juan couldn't help but worry. If it was really just about sleeping in the same bed, that would be acceptable. But she was afraid that Wen Mo wasn't telling the truth. Sleeping in the same bed, anything could happen!

This kid's playing it really hard, huh?

"What's with that expression? Do you want to call me out on this to my face?" Wen Yiquan didn't seem to care much about it; he still trusted his son's character.

...Trust him a little bit. Ever since those two got together, his trust in Wen Mo's character has plummeted.

...

Wenmo's bedroom.

Xia Lian knocked on the door, and when there was no response, she opened it and went in, carefully closing the door behind her.

Wen Mo huddled in the blankets, pretending to be half asleep, but when he saw that it was Xia Lian who came, he simply stopped pretending.

"It's you. I thought it was my mom coming to wake me up. I've been pretending for so long."

"My aunt called me, so I came." Xia Lian sat on the edge of the bed.

Wen Mo threw off the covers and jumped out of bed. He quickly put on his slippers, opened the door a crack, and peeked out.

The two people in the living room were talking about something, and I could hear my name and Lianbao's name being mentioned from time to time.

Wen Mo patted his chest; the crisis was half resolved, but not completely. He beckoned Xia Lian to his side and asked in a low voice, "Did they say anything strange?"

"Strange, what...?"

Xia Lian tilted her head, looking puzzled, as if she hadn't quite understood.

"It's just that the topic is somewhat related to last night," Wen Mo explained.

Upon hearing this, Xia Lian thought for a while and then shook her head.

"No, my aunt made breakfast, but she didn't say anything."

"It's good that you didn't say anything, it's good that you didn't say anything." Wen Mo was finally completely relieved.

He's been sleeping in late for a long time, and since his parents didn't suspect anything, it meant that this morning was just like any other day.

"That was so exciting! My heart almost stopped when I woke up this morning." Wen Mo patted his chest and let out a long breath, only laughing and joking after he had released all the tension.

We had gotten used to sleeping together, but just changing locations brought back that long-lost feeling of tension and excitement.

It was so much fun! I recommend playing it again next time.

"Alright, we should go out now, otherwise I'm afraid we'll cause trouble after chatting inside for so long." Wen Mo relaxed and patted Xia Lian's head with a grin.

However, Xia Lian did not squint her eyes as usual. Instead, she lowered her eyes with a hint of disappointment and reached out to grip the mattress.

Wen Mo paused for a few seconds, then looked up at her face. "What's wrong? You were fine just now, why do you suddenly look so sad?"

Xia Lian pursed her lips, and after a long while, she finally spoke in a daze, weakly saying, "Is it... not a good idea to sleep together?"

"...Although I really want to complain that it took you several months to discover this problem, I'm still very glad that you finally realized what the problem was." Wen Mo was quite pleased.

"I'm sorry to have troubled Wenmo..."

Xia Lian lowered her head in disappointment, a few strands of hair slipping down her shoulder.

Only now did I finally understand that sleeping together would cause a lot of problems, but even so, I still wanted to stay by his side and not leave.

"Hey, hey, hey, it's too formal of you to say things like that to me." Wen Mo scratched his head, and seeing that the two people in the living room were still chatting, he simply pulled Xia Lian into his arms. "Anyway, it's been a few months, who cares about so much anymore? You don't need to overthink it. Even if I get scolded, I'll accept it. I'm happy to do it."

He stroked Xia Lian's back with both hands, kneading it for a while before slowly releasing his embrace. He gave an embarrassed smile, took a few steps closer, and whispered in her ear, "To be honest, since you've been lying next to me... I've actually been quite happy."
