Crazy! The school beauty's mother works as my secretary!

"You're so thick-skinned."

"Only those with thick skin can have a baby with Professor Lu...".

"Hey... can't you just tone it down a little?"

Lu Qingqian blushed and looked around after Chen Mo's words.

She was afraid that her mother or others would overhear.

Chen Mo walked to her side, his gaze falling on her flushed cheeks, and he couldn't help but smile.

"It's just the two of us now, and you're telling me to keep quiet? You don't mean you want me to sleep in the living room, do you?"

Lu Qingqian's cheeks burned even hotter at his words, and she gave him a reproachful look:

"He will be talkative."

Despite saying that, she pushed open her own bedroom door and stepped aside to let him in.

The room was elegantly furnished, with pale pink curtains partially drawn.

The air was filled with her usual gardenia fragrance, fresh and gentle.

He had just closed the door behind him when he heard Lu Qingqian's slightly flustered voice:

"You...you sit down for a while, I'll go get you a clean set of pajamas."

As she was about to rummage through the wardrobe, Chen Mo gently grabbed her wrist.

Her wrists were slender, and her skin was delicate and warm.

The moment Chen Mo's fingertips touched her skin, both of them instinctively paused for a moment.

Lu Qingqian suddenly looked up at him, her eyes filled with panic, like a frightened fawn, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

"No need to bother."

"Ok?"

"I'll wear yours."

"Oh……"

"Shh, keep your voice down, who lives next door?"

"It seems to be my aunt."

"That's good."

"Hmm? Ugh~ No, I've already washed..."

The night is long, and some people are sound asleep.

I feel dawn.

For example, my uncle when he's drunk.

But some people didn't sleep all night, and the longer they lay down, the less they could fall asleep.

For example, the aunt next to the uncle.

The noise from next door kept her awake.

If it weren't for the fact that it's December, she would really like to take a cold shower to calm down.

……

The night passed.

Chen Mo got up very early in the morning, before anyone from the Lu family had gotten up yet.

The first to get up was Lu's mother.

She wouldn't have gotten up early to make breakfast if she hadn't been thinking about Chen Mo still being at home.

"Good morning, aunt."

Chen Mo greeted him politely.

But Lu's mother looked at him with a somewhat unnatural expression: "Hmm, good morning. Did you sleep well last night?"

Chen Mo smiled honestly: "It's fine."

The two then fell silent.

"What would you like to eat, beef noodles?"

"Sure, I can do it myself."

"Then come on."

Knowing Chen Mo's culinary skills, Lu's mother also wanted to try her future son-in-law's cooking.

"Okay. Auntie, what would you like to eat?"

"I'll eat noodles."

"Okay, then I'll go, cough, and make you a bowl of beef noodles."

Chen Mo promptly changed his word choice.

Avoid saying something embarrassing.

Lu's mother watched Chen Mo's skillful movements from the side, which were even somewhat pleasing to the eye.

This is like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law; the more she looks at him, the more she likes him.

A bowl of fragrant beef noodles was served.

After taking a bite, Lu's mother's goodwill towards Chen Mo was immediately boosted to the maximum.

"Delicious, so delicious."

Looking at the handsome Chen Mo, Lu's mother became increasingly satisfied with him.

Thinking about my own daughter, it seems that apart from being a professor and being fairly pretty, she doesn't have any other outstanding qualities.

For a moment, she even felt somewhat unworthy of Chen Mo.

If Qingqian could have gotten pregnant earlier... it might not have been a bad thing.

For a scholarly family like theirs, things were traditionally conservative.

But now, they're being a bit too open-minded with Chen Mo, their son-in-law.

Many things and principles that I couldn't accept before, I now accept with pleasure.

That's what 'principle' means.

Just like some women might be indifferent and impatient with you.

But when it comes to her favorite 'male god', he might be incredibly gentle and considerate...
