My ex-boyfriend is looking forward to my bankruptcy

The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer. Qu Tao was too nervous to move. Xi Mozhou raised his body with a look of mischief.

"Wife..."

Her body trembled, and she let out a brief sob. Her frightened eyes looked at him with reproach.

"Don't move, wait a moment."

"Can't wait."

Qu Tao bit her lip, a hint of pink appeared at the corners of her eyes, making her look pitiful out of nowhere. Xi Mozhou picked up the thin blanket beside him and covered the two of them, isolating them from the outside world.

"Wife, hurry up."

"Mozhou?"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door by Shen Yichen. Qu Tao's pupils trembled and he stopped. Xi Mozhou supported himself, half sat up, and kissed him on the lips.

My brain felt like it was suffocating from lack of oxygen, and the knocking on the door outside seemed like the drumbeats on a battlefield.

Tears mixed with sweat, and a long low roar came out. Shen Yichen realized something and hurried downstairs.

"Mr. Shen, why did you come down so soon? Are you leaving?"

"Well, I suddenly remembered that I have something urgent to deal with. I'll come over later."

Hearing the conversation between Chen Ma and Shen Yichen in the yard, Qu Tao panted, curled up in Xi Mozhou's arms, and bit his arm angrily.

"It's all your fault. I lost so much money."

"How can you blame me? If you want to blame someone, blame him. It's his fault for coming at the wrong time."

"Crooked."

Qu Tao adjusted his breathing and lowered his head. Xi Mozhou's chin rested on his hair, and he felt very satisfied as he savored the memory.

"Honey, tell me, why is it that the more nervous you are, the more excited I become?"

"Because you...BT!"

The air suddenly fell silent. Qu Tao thought of his arm and felt a little guilty.

"How's your arm? Did you hurt it again? Does it hurt?"

"It's just a minor fracture, nothing serious. I didn't move much, so it's all thanks to my wife for all her hard work."

"Don't do it again until the cast on your arm is removed. I'll be in the guest bedroom starting tonight."

"No, I'll go wherever you go."

……

It was almost evening when Shen Yichen came over again, just in time for dinner.

But he was no longer alone, with Xu Cong and Qiu Mingxuan by his side.

When Qu Tao saw him, Mu's cheeks flushed. Xi Mozhou seemed to notice it and gently held his hand, pointing his finger at Shen Yichen.

"Next time you come, remember to call ahead."

"I know." Shen Yichen gritted his teeth and muttered softly, "Who knew you would be so extravagant in broad daylight while injured?"

"What do you mean, did Old Shen stumble upon something?" Qiu Mingxuan smelled something and smiled maliciously, "Old Shen, tell me, what did you stumble upon?"

Shen Yichen gave him a look and said nothing. Qiu Mingxuan narrowed his eyes and hummed to himself at Xi Mozhou.

"The waters of Honghu Lake, waves upon waves..."

After singing only one line, he came close to Xi Mozhou.

"Old Xi, listen to my pronunciation of the word 'lang', is it out of tune?"

Qu Tao's cheeks flushed. He glared at Xi Mozhou, broke free from his hand, and walked towards the hall door.

"I'm going to see if the madman and the others have arrived."

Xi Mozhou looked at Qu Tao who was almost running away and slapped Qiu Mingxuan on the shoulder.

"Have I ever told you that my Taotao is thin-skinned? Why don't you try singing another line?"

"But why are you so shameless? Are we complementary and destined to be a couple?"

"You've said something sensible. I'll let you go today." Xi Mozhou said, turning to the other two, "My Taotao is shy, remember to avoid using dirty words in front of him."

"As you command," the three of them exchanged glances, suppressing their laughter. "Shameless Xi."

During the meal, because Xi Mozhou couldn't drink, everyone urged him to be the guest and asked the couple that one of them must accompany him.

Qu Tao was forced to take the initiative and had to pick up the wine glass to entertain the guests as the host.

Slightly tipsy, Qu Tao and Han Feng huddled together and whispered, while Shen Yichen and others took the opportunity to take credit from Xi Mozhou.

"We brothers have helped you get your status, so don't keep people waiting any longer. Once your injury is healed, strike while the iron is hot and marry her back quickly."

"I need no thanks for your kindness," Xi Mozhou said, looking at Qu Tao, with the corners of his lips raised high. "When we get married, I'll exempt you from paying half of the wedding gift money."

"Only half?" Qiu Mingxuan was a little dissatisfied, then put on a sly smile, "Forget it, getting married is a lifelong event. I think I should persuade Qu Tao to give him more time to observe, so as not to entrust the wrong person."

"No, all of them are ok?" Xi Mozhou compromised under threat, which also showed his capital tactics over the years. "But each of you must come up with a proposal for me."

Qu Tao was still talking to Han Feng, smiling from time to time. Xi Mozhou felt jealous and signaled to Pei Zechen to call Qu Tao back to his side.

"Taotao, I want to eat shrimp."

"You have a mouth on your body, eat whatever you want, why are you calling me?"

Qu Tao was chatting happily and didn't even raise his head. Xi Mozhou lifted his plastered hand.

"But it's not convenient for me."

Hearing the aggrieved voice, Qu Tao finally looked up, glanced at him, and sat back beside him helplessly.

"Don't you like shrimp?"

"Well, it's too troublesome to eat."

Haha…so since someone is peeling it, you just want to eat it.

Qu Tao stuffed the peeled shrimp into his mouth in anger.

"I eat one today, and you have to return ten to me later. Will you still eat it?"

"Yeah." Xi Mozhou didn't want to let him leave, so he nodded. "What were you talking about with Han Feng just now?"

Han Feng just told him about Pei Zechen's reaction after the cosplay this afternoon, but he didn't intend to tell Xi Mozhou about this.

"What else can we talk about? It's almost National Day, let's talk about where to go for fun."

"Really?" He was laughing so happily just now, but Xi Mozhou didn't believe it and continued, "Have you decided where to go? No matter where you go, I can accompany you."

"With your body..." Qu Tao gave him a look of disdain, "Don't count on it. Just stay home and watch TV."

"What's wrong with my body? I can accompany you to the ends of the earth."

Qu Tao stopped talking and silently peeled the shrimp in his hand. Xi Mozhou pondered for a while and made a suggestion.

"How about we go to Wufeng Mountain? There's a large maple forest and hot springs there. This season is a perfect time for a trip."

"Hot spring? You can't touch the water, so forget it."

Qu Tao was moved by what he said, and when he thought of his arm, he said something with a hint of regret, but Xi Mozhou didn't care at all.

"It's just your arms that can't touch the water, not other parts of your body."

After Xi Mozhou finished speaking, he turned to the others. Although these people were like light bulbs in his eyes, this was not the time.

He had his own plans. First, it would be more lively with more people around. Second, and most importantly, he was not in good health, so these people could help share the pressure on his son Taotao.

After consultation, except for Xu Cong who wanted to return to his hometown, everyone else had no objection.

Everyone dispersed late at night. Qu Tao helped Xi Mozhou wipe his body briefly before going to take a shower.

"Everyone sleeps separately tonight. I'll go to the guest bedroom."

"No, I'll go wherever you go."

"I'm doing this for your own good. What if you accidentally move your arm while studying for the afternoon?"

"No, I won't touch you tonight."

Worried that Qu Tao would insist on going to the guest bedroom, Xi Mozhou added another sentence.

"If I need to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, you wouldn't want to see me accidentally fall, right?"

"Those two quilts."

"can."

Half asleep and half awake, I felt a cool sensation on my waist, followed by warm breath.

Qu Tao was startled, realizing something, and his voice broke.

"Xi Mozhou, why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night? What do you want to do?"

"To make it up to you, you worked hard this afternoon."
