In response to his excessive demands, Wen Xia shouted towards the kitchen: "Dad, Qin Mo said he wants to come and help you." After saying that, she shook her head at him proudly.

Come on, be symmetrical in front of dad.

If dad doesn't beat you away, I won't believe Wen.

Qin Mo: “…”

Hearing the sound of the kitchen lock turning, he immediately sat up straight, then stood up, and saw Wendell coming out of the kitchen, and blurted out, "Dad, I'll help you."

Hearing the word "Dad", Wen Xia held back her laughter and gave Qin Mo a look that said "you're dead".

Qin Mo reacted and shouted something, "..."

It wasn't the first time that Winder heard this. He pursed his lips and pretended not to hear it. "Have you finished your homework?"

"I finished it at school." Qin answered politely.

Wend went back into the kitchen and quickly brought out a handful of cowpeas and a basket, and put them on the table. "Do you understand?"

Qin Mo glanced at his wife who was looking down and trying not to laugh, "Yes, I do it often." Then he sat down and started to prepare the dishes.

Seeing that he was very skilled in his movements and didn't look like he was lying, Winder looked away for a while and went back to the kitchen.

The kitchen door was closed. Wen Xia took out her phone and took a picture of Qin Mo. The boy was wearing a pure black short-sleeved shirt and his head was slightly lowered, making the curve of his chin more obvious.

The cowpeas that cost 3 yuan per pound look like jade.

"Are you obsessed with your husband's handsomeness and can't help yourself?" Qin Mo raised his eyebrows.

Wen Xia: “…”

She put down her phone, glanced at the kitchen door, and whispered, "Dad."

Qin Mo paused for a moment, and several ideas of explanation flashed through his mind in an instant. After several seconds without hearing any response, he turned his head, but Wend was not there.

Staring at Wen Xia, whose eyes were bent with laughter, he raised the corners of his eyes and was about to say something when the phone rang.

The mobile phone on the coffee table belongs to Winder.

Wen Xia took a look and saw that it was Liu Yan calling. The smile on her face fell and she reached out to answer the phone, "Hello."

Liu Yan on the other end of the phone said anxiously, "Xia Xia, let your dad answer the phone."

Wen Xia had already guessed what she came for. She held the phone tightly, a hint of sarcasm flashing across her face, "Dad has something to do. If you are here for the Liu family's business, then you don't have to tell me."

She paused for a moment and then continued, "Dad is not the one to clean up your mess. Please don't bother my dad or contact him in the future."

"My dad has his own life to live." She said this with a sour feeling in her nose.

She didn’t know how the Liu family’s issues were resolved in her previous life. She only knew that Wend smelled heavily of cigarettes during that time.

Liu Yan on the other end of the phone was speechless, "Xia Xia..."

Wen Xia hung up the phone directly.

Qin Mo knew almost nothing about Liu Yan, he only knew that his wife had a very cold relationship with her mother.

I didn't expect it to be this bad.

No wonder Wen Xia said after getting married: Husband, I also have a good mother.

The kitchen door opened a little and then slowly closed. Winder leaned against the door, raised his hand to take off his glasses, wiped his eyes, and after a minute or two he started cooking again.

During the meal, Wen De did not mention this matter, and seemed unaware that Liu Yan had called. After the meal, Wen Xia went to wash the dishes.

Winder called Qin Mo to the bedroom. Looking at the boy who was half a head taller than him, it was undeniable that he was very outstanding among his peers.

Wend pursed his lips and said, "Qin Mo, my Xia Xia is a good girl, she is very sensible."

Qin Mo understood that he was afraid that he would have a bad opinion of Wen Xia because of the Liu family's affairs, so he said seriously: "Uncle Wen, I will not change my opinion of Xia Xia because of others."

Seeing his serious expression, Wend said, "Hmm," and said, "You and Xia Xia should study hard."

Qin Mo nodded.

The two didn't say anything and quickly left the bedroom. Qin Mo went to the kitchen to help Wen Xia wash the dishes.

After washing the dishes, Qin Mo went home.

When Wen Xia was doing her homework in her bedroom, she heard a sound coming from Wende's bedroom. She applied a little more force to the pen in her hand, and a small black dot fell.

Wend lit a cigarette in the bedroom and went to the balcony. He took a puff and slowly exhaled. The smoke blurred his eyes. "Liu Yan, I don't owe you anything."

The man's voice was extremely hoarse, perhaps because of smoking or something else.

Liu Yan was silent for a while, "Wende, I know I'm sorry for you, but there's no way to compromise on matters of the heart."

She and Wei Yongcheng were each other's first love, but they broke up for some reasons. Later, she married Wendell through an introduction from someone else. Wendell was a very good man. If it weren't for Wei Yongcheng, she might have spent her whole life with him.

"You're not sorry for me, you're sorry for Xia Xia." Wend took another puff of his cigarette and said, "Don't call me about the Liu family anymore."

Liu Yan rubbed her brows and spoke in a much softer tone, "Can the Liu family's affairs be settled privately?"

From the time she called until now, she never asked Wen Xia if she was okay. Wen Xia's tone became much colder. "No." He hung up the phone and then blacklisted Liu Yan's number.

After sitting on the balcony for a long time, he got up and went into the bedroom. He changed his clothes and went to Wen Xia's bedroom. Looking at her fair little face, he said, "Xia Xia, Dad won't care about the Liu family's affairs anymore."

Wen Xia looked at his clothes and bit her lip, "Dad..." She wanted to say, Dad, don't be attached to Liu Yan anymore, she is not worth it.

But matters of the heart are not worth talking about.

She pretended to be cheerful and said, "Dad, let's go play basketball. We haven't played for a long time."

Winder: “Okay.”

The two changed into sportswear, took basketballs and went to the basketball court in the community to play.

There won't be many people here.

Wen Xia tied her ponytail again, shook her head like a child, and said happily, "Dad, the old rules apply. Whoever loses gets to buy ice cream."

Winder smiled, "Okay."

Wende intended to let Wenxia lose.

He took Wen Xia to the convenience store at the entrance of the community to buy ice cream. After Wen Xia tore open the oil paper package, she took a sip. The cool feeling made her exclaim "Wow", and she said, "It's great to have a dad. I can eat ice cream."

Winder glanced at the ice cream brand.

When the two walked downstairs, Wen Xia suddenly said seriously: "Dad, stop smoking."

Wend was stunned for a moment, looking at Wen Xia's childish face, he felt even more guilty. He didn't want the seventeen-year-old Wen Xia to be as sensible as an adult.

"Okay, I won't smoke anymore."

Wen Xia returned home and found 99+ messages on her phone, all from Qin Mo.

She muttered softly, saying that she was going to play ball and send messages.

But she felt warm in her heart. She curled up in her quilt and started climbing the stairs. The "passionate" photo appeared in front of her eyes.

My dear wife.

Long live my wife.

Wife, I love you.

Wife, I will sing "Conquer" for you.

…

Wen Xia felt a lump in her nose. What a stinky husband! Why are you being so sentimental?

She pressed the screen a few times: I want to listen to two tigers.

After a while, Qin Mo sent a voice message in a boy's unique magnetic voice, "Two tigers, two tigers, running fast, running fast, one has no ears, one has no tail, so strange, so strange..."
