Ms. Ji is so vicious. She completely lost her image as a noble lady on the phone. I wonder if she thought her own son had committed some unforgivable crime.
Yu Mo's temples were hurt by her yelling, and he helplessly lowered his phone and put it next to Lin Meng's ear.
"My mother," he said, "she still thinks I'm doing something beastly to you. Tell her to put her mind at ease and clear my name."
Lin Meng finally calmed down. She glanced at Yu Mo, and then heard Ms. Ji's anxious voice on the phone over and over again.
A cold light flashed in Lin Xiaomeng's eyes, and then she took a deep breath full of malice.
“Aunt Ji!!!” She suddenly burst into tears, grabbed Yu Mo’s wrist, and howled into the receiver: “Yu Mo is not a human being!! He forced me to do something I didn’t want to do so early in the morning!! I was almost dying of exhaustion, but he didn’t stop!! It’s so hard for me, sob ...
Yu Mo: “????”
His right eyelid twitched wildly and he tried to pull his hand back in a hurry, but Lin Xiaomeng held it tightly and he couldn't succeed.
"Yu Mo! How could I have given birth to such a rude and uncouth son like you!!" Ms. Ji's scream was so clear even without the speaker turned up louder: "You've thrown all the gentlemanly manners I taught you since you were a child into the stinking gutter, haven't you?!"
Yu Mo: “…”
Well, even the address has been changed. I have dropped the image of a socialite and just become "old lady".
This mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who have not even started dating yet, unexpectedly work together so well...
Yu Mo suddenly felt that his future life might not be easy.
After being forced by Ms. Ji to apologize to Lin Xiaomeng repeatedly, Yu Mo took the initiative to bend down and carry Lin Xiaomeng back to the base to show his sincerity.
On the way back, Lin Xiaomeng felt really relaxed and happy. She lay on his shoulder and hummed a little tune. Yu Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he was happy with it.
"Hey, my mom asked me to take you home for dinner." He then asked, "Are you free next week?"
"Huh?" Lin Meng was stunned for a moment, then straightened her head, rested her chin on his shoulder, and stammered, "That means meeting, meeting the parents..."
"It's not that formal, just my mom." Yu Mo said, "My mom likes you very much and wants to meet you."
"So..." Lin Meng seemed to be lost in thought. "What about your father?" She blushed and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Actually, it's not impossible to meet your father together."
Yu Mo smiled.
"My dad's return date is uncertain," he said. "Last month he said he'd be back in the middle of this month, but now there's no news. He probably won't be back this month. My mom is home alone all day, and I don't always have time to spend with her. She's pretty bored."
"Yeah." Lin Meng suddenly felt a sense of pity and closeness towards Ms. Ji, and nodded hurriedly: "Then let's go next Monday. And bring some gifts for Aunt Ji."
"Okay." Yu Mo smiled and said, "You pick the gift, and I'll pay."
"I have money." Lin Meng said dissatisfiedly: "Don't look down on me, I know how to save money."
"I'm not looking down on you. Isn't it natural for my mother and my girlfriend to spend my money? If you don't spend it, it will seem like I'm not good at making money." Yu Mo coaxed softly, "You have money, you can buy yourself something you like."
"You've bought me almost everything I like..." Lin Meng hummed.
Speaking of those bags she had her eyes on before, she had just mentioned them casually when she was talking to Lin Sitian on the phone. However, a few days later, Yu Mo asked someone to bring them all back for her from a duty-free shop abroad.
She racked her brains and thought again and again, and suggested: "Then I'll buy you something you like. What do you like? A watch? Clothes? A belt? Or..."
"Those are external possessions." Yu Mo sighed, "You can't bring them with you when you're born, and you can't take them with you when you die."
"External possessions?" Lin Meng asked blankly, "Then what are the internal possessions...?"
Yu Mo suddenly turned his head and kissed the tip of her small and delicate nose.
"Don't you understand?" He opened his lips and smiled leisurely: "I want to be your body."
A Lu came back in the evening. Xu Dandan was having her birthday these days, so he took a special leave to celebrate with Xu Dandan.
Regarding the fact that he has a girlfriend, he has already announced it on Weibo and made it clear that she is not someone in the circle, and hopes that fans will not disturb her.
Unlike Yu Mo, A Lu has more older sister fans and mother fans. Although this announcement has caused him to lose a small number of younger girlfriend fans, most of the rational female fans still strongly support him in pursuing his true love.
When A Lu came back, a group of people from Team E were watching a movie together in the living room. It was an out-of-print black-and-white classic movie about love that Zhong Xiang had found outside.
Lin Meng and Yu Mo sat together in a corner of the sofa, Panda held popcorn and shared it with Lao Mai from time to time, while Zhong Xiang's eyes lit up and he would make a comment from time to time to express his excellent appreciation of the film.
Halfway through the film, the plot reached its climax. The hero and heroine reunited, and when their love was at its peak, they rolled into bed passionately.
The atmosphere in the living room became confusing for some reason. The clock rang as quietly as a chicken. Panda and Lao Mai stopped chewing the popcorn in their mouths. Lin Meng, who had been leaning on Yu Mo's shoulder like a boneless person, slowly sat up and moved to the end of the sofa.
A Lu bent down to take off his shoes, and with a "pop", his cell phone fell out of his pocket.
It was as if the pause button was pressed over there, and a group of people looked over at the same time, with the word "awkward" written all over their faces.
It happened that the passionate scene in the movie ended.
A Lu was stunned for a moment, then saw a group of people standing up from the sofa as if relieved, and swarming towards him.
"Ah, Deer Cub, you finally came back." Zhong Xiang said, "I was just about to call you to urge you."
"Didn't I say I'd take a day and a half off?" A-Lu asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Huh?" Panda, the scoundrel who craves chaos, approached with a sly look on his face. "You spent the night out?"
Ah Lu: "..." His ears turned red: "What does it have to do with you?"
"Hey, tell me the truth! Did you do anything shameful?!" Panda pointed at him and shouted gloatingly, "I guessed right!"
Ah Lu gritted his teeth slightly. "Are you annoying?! I became an adult last month! I can do whatever I want! It's not illegal!"
"I started eating meat right after I became an adult." Panda said seriously, "I'm a sourpuss. I'm jealous."
"Alright, that's enough," Zhong Xiang said. "Don't discuss this late-night topic in public. It's not a good influence!"
"That's Brother Zhong." A-Lu said, "I want to advance my annual leave as well."
"What for?" Zhong Xiang asked back.
"I want to take Dandan home..." A Lu pulled her ears shyly, "I want my parents to meet her..."
"Oh my god, you're progressing so fast!" Panda exclaimed in surprise.
"Then I like her! I have to be responsible for her!" Ah Lu said with his neck stiffened. "Look, I'm so busy now. She comes into contact with so many people at school. What if someone pursues her? I'm scared!"
"Okay, okay." Zhong Xiang waved his hand: "I agree."
"Thank you, Brother Zhong!" A Lu said happily, "I will definitely train hard, play well in the games, and earn money for a house."
"Look, now that he has a girlfriend, he's grown up and matured." Zhong Xiang couldn't help laughing: "That's great, I'm very relieved."
On the other side, Yu Mo suddenly felt something and sighed deeply.
"Comparing yourself to others will only make you angry," he said.
Lin Meng felt a little guilty when he sighed.
"Why are you so angry?" She pouted and said, "Dating someone like Lu is like being in a long-distance relationship. You get to see me every day, and you're still not satisfied!"
"It's because I'm seeing you that I feel so bad." Yu Mo rubbed his brows. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he glanced sideways and asked, "Are you worried that I won't be responsible?"
Lin Meng blinked: "Huh?"
Yu Mo suddenly turned to face her and said seriously, "How about this? I'll have my lawyer draw up a contract. If I cheat on you, all my assets will belong to you. How about that?"
Lin Meng was stunned: "This, this is not necessary..."
The more Yu Mo thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. Lin Xiaomeng had never received much affection from her family since she was a child, so she must have felt insecure. It was normal for her to be unwilling to give in easily. He acted on his thought and immediately stood up: "I'll be back soon."
"Hey—" Lin Meng felt that this was a bit too much, making it seem like some dirty money-making deal between the two of them. She hurriedly chased after him to stop him: "No, no, it has nothing to do with this. I don't distrust you or anything. I just want to win a world championship first and give an explanation to the fans—"
Yu Mo: "There's no contradiction between the two. Don't worry about it. Leave the formalities to me. I promise I won't let you suffer any loss."
Lin Meng was really anxious at this moment. She felt that Yu Mo was so nice to her that she felt pressured. "Yu Mo!" She stamped her feet and cursed, "You are not thinking that you can buy your freedom later!"
Yu Mo: “?”
The man looked back in surprise and temporarily stopped what he was doing.
Lin Meng was silent for a moment.
She felt that Yu Mo was really unlucky to have met her in this life. Not only did he have so many hardships for no reason because of the spell he had put on him, but he also had to keep it to himself all day long, living a miserable life like a high monk.
What else can she do?! That kind of thing...if she gets infected, will she even be able to compete in the World Championship?
Seeing the girl pouting and not saying anything, looking very distressed, Yu Mo couldn't help but walk up to her and pull her hand.
"Okay, okay, I won't do it anymore." He said softly, "I'm crazy, don't take it to heart, let's skip this part, okay?"
In the end, Yu Mo compromised.
After returning to the house, Lin Meng felt very sorry. She couldn't help but take out her mobile phone and search the Internet to see if anyone had the same problem.
A related question popped up.
My boyfriend wants to do something with me, but it’s not convenient for me to do it. What should I do?
Lin Meng covered her face and dragged her head down to answer.
【Dear, Five Fingers Girl, please understand.】-
Yu Mo went back to his room and took a shower. He casually put on a loose long-sleeved shirt and long pants and walked out of the bathroom. He fell onto the bed and felt that he had begun to miss Lin Xiaomeng. So he sent Lin Meng a message: [Go to bed early.]
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Yu Mo was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and stood up to open the door.
When the door opened, he saw a girl in cute furry pajamas standing there with her head hung down.
"What's wrong?" He asked in surprise: "Can't sleep or -"
"That... I thought about it for a moment." Lin Meng said, "The last time you took me to the hospital... I was quite touched."
Yu Mo: “?”
Lin Meng's face was as red as a persimmon: "Things like this happen once, but they won't last forever. So, would you consider... settling for the next best thing and trying again?"
