Chapter 46 She seems to be becoming increasingly susceptible to temptation.
"Wife." Shen Mo walked over.
As Jiang Ning looked at the tall man approaching, she smiled happily and said, "Shen Mo, Zhiqi called me Mom."
Jiang Ning smiled happily, her eyes crinkling. Shen Mo noticed her smiling face.
The bright and beautiful girl's smile was even more captivating. Why was his daughter so happy to be called "Mom"?
Shen Mo walked over and pulled Jiang Ning up from the ground. "This kid should have called me 'Mom' a long time ago."
"Let's go home."
Jiang Ning held Zhiqi's hand.
Shen Mo's gaze fell on the spot where they were holding hands.
He wanted to hold her hand too.
He wanted to kiss her too.
Suddenly, a small hand reached out in front of him. Shen Mo looked up and met a pair of hesitant eyes. The little guy seemed to have mustered up his courage before speaking, "Daddy, can we hold hands?"
“You’re right to call me ‘Dad’.” Shen Mo took his hand. “You’re now registered under the same household as me, so you should definitely call me ‘Dad’ and ‘Mom’.”
Huo Zhiqi shrank his little hand, his heart pounding. He really had a father and a mother now.
The gloomy atmosphere surrounding the family of three was cast upon the ground by the afterglow of the setting sun, stretching out slowly.
Jiang Ning suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Zhiqi, "By the way, didn't you just ask me if I was disappointed?"
Huo Zhiqi had just calmed his racing heart when the topic came up again.
"I'm quite disappointed," she suddenly said.
Before his body could even grow cold, a delicate white hand tapped him on the head. "I've seen the questions you've done. You could solve questions that were harder than the ones on the test. How could you get such a simple question wrong? Were you doing it on purpose?"
Huo Zhiqi lowered his head and softly replied, "Mm."
Jiang Ning grabbed his chin and made him lift his head. "You can't keep your head down all the time. You have to hold your head high and be a person!"
The topic jumped too far, and Huo Zhiqi's little brain immediately went blank.
Jiang Ning didn't dwell on his test paper too much.
Back home, the family of three had a cozy dinner together, and after eating, they took a short break to digest.
When Jiang Ning was about to go to the bathroom to take a shower, she bumped into Shen Mo and Zhi Qi, who were also about to take a shower.
"Honey, you go ahead. Zhiqi and I will take a shower in the yard." Shen Mo consciously made room for Jiang Ning and even boiled water for her and poured it into the bucket in the washroom.
When Jiang Ning came out of the shower, Zhi Qi had already showered and gone back to his room to do his homework.
With a splash, Jiang Ning's attention was drawn to Shen Mo sitting on a small stool in the yard, pouring water over himself with a ladle. He was completely naked from the waist up, without taking off his pants, and the water flowed down his body onto the ground.
The water flowed from the tips of his hair, slowly sliding down his sharply defined face, and finally down his broad shoulders, outlining the contours of his muscles. The water flowed on his body as if painting a flowing scroll.
Jiang Ning swallowed hard, knowing she was acting like a scoundrel.
She seems to be becoming increasingly susceptible to temptation.
Maybe she should find an opportunity to pounce on this man someday; at least she won't lose out.
Shen Mo had no idea what his wife was thinking.
He took a towel, wet it, and tried to wipe his back, but no matter how he wiped, he couldn't wipe his entire back.
Seeing his clumsy back-rubbing movements, Jiang Ning thought for a moment and walked over, "Let me rub it for you."
Shen Mo was taken aback. He turned his head sharply, looked at Jiang Ning for two seconds, and then shoved the towel into her hand without hesitation. "Okay."
Jiang Ning took a towel and wiped his back. After a while, she said, "Keep watering the plants."
Shen Mo immediately replied, "Oh, okay."
Shen Mo's shower made Jiang Ning's face turn red. She couldn't wipe it anymore, so she threw the towel back to Shen Mo and ran into the house.
Shen Mo also washed himself until he was itching to get clean.

Jiang Ning's boastful words in Huo Zhiqi's class that day quickly spread throughout the family compound.
Every time Jiang Ning went to Grandpa Huang's clinic, people would greet her on the way.
That day, when Jiang Ning was returning home from the clinic, she noticed a jeep with a military license plate overturned on the side of the road.
There was a car accident.
Jiang Ning's expression immediately turned serious, and she quickly went over to check.
There were only two people in the car, one unconscious and the other conscious despite his leg being stuck.
The middle-aged man who was still conscious saw Jiang Ning and his eyes lit up with hope. He immediately shouted, "Comrade, quickly help me pull him out."
Jiang Ning crouched down and was shocked to see that the person who was stuck had a metal bar piercing through his thigh. It was quite difficult for her to rescue the two adult men.
The two were unlucky; their car overturned in a deserted area.
Jiang Ning struggled to pull the unconscious man from the driver's seat out of the car, and the man in the passenger seat breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his companion being rescued.
Jiang Ning laid the rescued person flat on the ground, then took out her acupuncture kit.
She took out a silver needle and inserted it into the unconscious man's body twice. The unconscious young man woke up instantly and saw the girl in front of him as soon as he opened his eyes.
He was startled, but quickly remembered something, stood up, saw the car next to him, and rushed over, shouting, "Brigadier!"
The middle-aged man still trapped in the car was much more composed than him; he didn't utter a sound even as his thigh was pierced.
"Stop yelling, get me out of here."
"good."
The man agreed and went to rescue the people in the car.
"Wait!" Jiang Ning called out to him, "If you want him to bleed to death here, do whatever you want."
Upon hearing her words, the man immediately hesitated to ask someone for help.
Holding a pouch of silver needles, Jiang Ning knelt down and inserted more than a dozen silver needles into the trapped man's thigh.
Western medicine has its treatment methods, and traditional Chinese medicine has its treatment methods.
If the bleeding can be stopped, this life can be saved.
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. "Alright, get him out now."
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately pulled the person out of the car. Surprisingly, the middle-aged man only bled a little from the pierced leg.
The young man quickly squatted down. "Brigadier, come on up, I'll carry you to the camp for treatment."
Seeing that the silver needles were still stuck in his leg, Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, "There is a clinic not far from here. If you want to get treatment as soon as possible, I will take you there."
Without hesitation, the middle-aged man said, "Okay, let's go to the clinic you mentioned, young lady."
