Yu Cheng'en went upstairs on his own without saying anything to wait for anyone. Lin Xiaomeng talked to Yu Mo and Ji Yan for a while, but when she looked up, Yu Cheng'en was gone.
Seeing Lin Xiaomeng trotting up the stairs to chase after him, Ji Yan rolled her eyes in anger.
"Why did I marry such a stinky man?" She stamped her feet in anger. "The older he gets, the more stubborn he gets. He's like a piece of stinky stone. He acts like no one cares about him."
Gong Xue sat stiffly in a corner of the sofa. She didn't dare to breathe, and she didn't dare to say a single extra word when she heard Ji Yan lose her temper.
"Okay, Mom, don't be angry, wait a moment." Yu Mo said softly: "Is there still something stewing in your kitchen? Why does it smell like it's burnt?"
"Oh! I almost forgot!" Ji Yan screamed as if she had just woken up from a dream: "I'm so angry that I'm losing my mind!" As she said that, she rolled up the sleeves of her vest and rushed into the kitchen in a hurry.
The living room suddenly became quiet, with only Yu Mo and Gong Xue left.
Compared to Ji Yan's rage, Yu Mo's attitude, although a little cold and distant, was obviously much gentler.
Gong Xue suddenly felt that she could accept Yu Mo's reaction.
After all... after all, we haven't seen each other for so many years, and it's impossible to ask him to be as affectionate to me as yesterday. He is not that angry, does it also mean that the relationship between them is not that serious?
She saw Yu Mo sit down on the other end of the sofa with his knees bent, and quietly took out his cell phone to check it.
The man's fingers were slender and beautiful, sliding flexibly on the phone screen, which was pleasing to the eye. His other hand rested casually on his knee, with a silver ring on his ring finger.
That ring...
Gong Xue's expression froze slightly.
As soon as she came in, she saw the ring on Lin Meng's hand.
She has been well versed in fashion over the years and has a keen sense of taste. She recognized at a glance that it was one of Tiffany's classic couple rings, which are usually used as tokens of love or engagement.
Later, Ji Yan's words quickly confirmed her guess, extinguishing the spark of hope in her heart, leaving only a piece of cold ash.
At this moment, her eyes were fixed on the ring that Yu Mo was wearing, with a flicker of doubt in her eyes.
——That’s not a Tiffany ring!
It was an Italian niche luxury brand that was particularly good at men's accessories, but because it mostly served men, she forgot the specific name.
But at least it wasn't Tiffany's!
Only Lin Meng was wearing such a symbolic wedding ring. Although Ji Yan said that Lin Meng was her daughter-in-law, Yu Mo pretended to obey her and wore a ring of another brand!
What does this mean? !
Suddenly, infinite enthusiasm and joy surged in her heart.
Maybe... maybe this is Yu Mo's true attitude.
She was so excited that she didn't dare to think further and moved her body carefully towards Yu Mo.
Just when she was about to get close, Yu Mo suddenly turned his head and looked at her expressionlessly for two seconds.
Gong Xue blushed a little at his focused gaze, and her heart was pounding.
It was as if she had returned to her student days overnight. Yu Mo took her to and from school every day, went in and out with her, and took care of her in every possible way.
"Yu--" She was about to speak when she saw Yu Mo suddenly raise his hand and pull out a square pillow from somewhere. He then placed the pillow upright against his body and tucked it under his arm, placing it between them like a shield.
"Stay away from me." He held his phone horizontally and started a game of BOD's mobile game. He said in a flat tone, "Be careful of the impact."
Gong Xue was stunned for a moment.
I don't know what kind of material the pillow is filled with. It's very elastic and tough. She can't flatten it or squeeze through it. It's blocked tightly.
Yu Mo looked extremely focused on playing the mobile game, and he didn't even raise his head no matter how she tossed and turned on the other side of the pillow.
Gong Xue was so annoyed that she couldn't help but pound her knees, but she quickly regained control. Pursing her lips, she said in an extremely aggrieved and soft voice, "I know, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, your family wouldn't be in such a mess today, and Auntie wouldn't be so angry... You could have had a good reunion dinner."
As she spoke, she sniffed and pretended to sob.
She felt that her words had put her in an extremely low position. Anyone who still had some compassion would not have the heart to blame her, let alone these highly educated people in the Yu family.
As long as Yu Mo said, "It's not your fault," the whole situation would be revived.
Gong Xue was vaguely looking forward to it.
The next second, she saw Yu Mo straighten up.
Is he going to speak now? Is he finally willing to give me a chance to make peace?
Gong Xue's eyes were almost filled with tears.
Unexpectedly, the next second, Yu Mo took out a small white box from his pocket, took out a pair of wireless headphones from it, and stuffed them into his ears without hesitation.
"Don't worry, let me connect the Bluetooth." The man frowned and said to the phone's external speaker, "Damn, you need someone to play a mobile game with you? Do you think your mouse and keyboard, which cost tens of thousands of dollars, are worth it? I'm embarrassed to say you're a PC game player."
Gong Xue: "..." She was directly shocked by the word "damn" and couldn't speak for a long time.
Ever since Yu Mo became a professional player, his daily speaking habits have changed. He would occasionally use some coquettish catchphrases and embellishments. Gong Xue actually doesn't like this.
In her impression, Yu Mo, who was fifteen or sixteen years old, was the little prince in Western literature, gentle and sunny, and as he grew up, it was even more natural for Yu Mo to become a celebrity gentleman, eloquent and gentle.
How can a gentleman swear? It has a very bad influence!
She couldn't help but open her mouth, trying to divert Yu Mo's attention with a coquettish tone: "Brother, can you listen to me for a moment——"
Yu Mo raised his hand to block her: "Don't make noise, I'm trying to get points. We can talk later if you have anything else."
Gong Xue: “…”
She looked at Yu Mo's phone in disbelief.
What's wrong with these men? Are games really that fun? Does winning make you look better or rich? How can you be so obsessed with a game? Forgetting sleep and food is one thing, but when a beautiful woman sits right next to you, trying so hard to flirt with you, how can you just sit back and watch?
At this moment, Yu Mo's Bluetooth headset was ringing with the team's voice calls, including Ye Feng from the SN team and Heping from the Winter team.
"I asked you to play a mobile game, and you're talking so much." Ye Feng said, "Are we brothers? If we are brothers, then—"
"Come and chop me!" a crisp little girl's voice rang out, "Or come and play with Greedy Blue Moon!"
"Go away, you know it again. Playful Lan Yue gave you pocket money, right?" Ye Feng said, "Don't try to be clever here. I've called Brother Heping and God Mo for you. I'll play a few games with you and then you can hurry up and do your homework."
"Tsk." The little girl said dismissively, "What do you mean by playing with me for a few rounds? I'm really good! I got to this level on my own!"
Heping was surprised and said, "Wow, you are really amazing. Are all primary school students nowadays so amazing?"
"You're so awesome!" Ye Feng said, "You have three final exams, and you almost failed two of them. Now you're still playing games. Seriously, you're so shameless. I only admire you."
"Brother, you failed all the final exams from elementary school to junior high school!" The little girl yelled at the top of her voice: "Mom said I am much better than you--"
Ye Feng: "...your brother, I'm not interested in this."
Little girl: "That's not my ambition!"
Ye Feng: "If you don't study well, you might end up losing your job. You won't have money to buy nice clothes or delicious snacks."
"You won't buy it for me!" The little girl argued confidently: "Besides, brother, you are not unemployed, why should I be unemployed! When you are old and retired, I will become the captain of your team! Then I will be called Captain Nini!"
Ye Feng: "...You want to argue with me again? If you do, I'll tell your mom you used her ID to register for the mobile game."
Nini: "Duan Fengye, you are a big pig's hoof! You only know how to bully me!"
Heping: "Wow...Team Feng really brought out the authority dog character to perfection!"
Yu Mo laughed out loud: "I think your sister will be very successful in the future. She might be the LEMON here."
2.0.”
Ye Feng: "You've almost finished your LEMON boasting. Can you please control yourself a little? Will your sniper die or something if you don't do that for a moment?"
Yu Mo said shamelessly: "Yeah, I feel uncomfortable if I don't blow it."
Ye Feng: "...Fuck it."
Nini: "LEMON! LEMON! Sister LEMON, I adore her so much!! She's beautiful, good at gaming, and so domineering! She's the goddess of our class! Many boys in our class say they want to marry her in the future!"
Yu Mo: "Oh?"
Heping: "...kids nowadays are quite precocious."
Ye Feng gritted his teeth unhappily. "The boys in your class are quite bold... They're so young, yet they dare to dream of swan meat. Go back and tell them to stop daydreaming. There's such a big age gap, and there's a whole company of successful men ahead of them. They've already lost their chance."
Heping: "Successful man, are you talking about yourself, Captain Feng?"
Ye Feng: "I'll give you a look and let you experience it yourself."
Nini: "Hey brother, do you know Sister LEMON?"
Ye Feng was very proud: "Of course not, we are still good friends."
Nini immediately became excited: "Then can you marry Sister Lemon and make her my sister-in-law?"
Ye Feng: "Well..."
Before he finished speaking, Yu Mo suddenly coughed and said coldly, "Don't say that elementary school students have no chance of marrying Lemon because of the big age gap. Some people still have no chance even if there is no age gap."
